hello friends. i have a prayer request.
someone close to me (we'll call him bob) has made several bad choices this past year. choices that has hurt his relationship with God, his family, and the church. several of us have talked with him, but he continued his path of destruction.
a couple of weeks ago, his wife asked my pastor if some of us could go to their house to pray for him and the family. pastor said as long as bob agrees to it (because he kinda doesn't like us anymore), we will go. bob said yes, so we're meeting at his house at 11 am.
please join us in prayer. i believe there will be a breakthrough. the devil is defeated.

Ah.... that's basically what mine told me when we first started dating... I don't smother him, but I did tell him because of the way I grew up... I beg for attention all the time... It's not entirely MY fault.... but I didn't always get the center spotlight as a child.... So I told him... because of that.... i get very clingy... and smothering others with attention thinking it will be given back to me... I know sounds silly... but. Sadly its true...
But I am happy to say that God has been working on me in that department. And I dont "beg" for attention like I used too... I just merely want him to realize, I am a human being... Not a flipping robot. lol

That's understandable and I don't know about how your man was raised, but some to a lot of men are raised not to show to much emotion. We have been told it is a sign of weakness, when actually it is a strength !!!
That is why it is so hard for a lot of men to show the same loving attention back that they are given.
I myself was the same way and hardly ever showed emotion, but after giving myself to God I now days can no longer even sit down and watch a sad movie without tears flowing down my face.
Of course I still look around the room and dry my eyes real quick so that nobody sees...................LOL

There are 3 chick-flicks I watch... and all 3 make me cry every time I watch it... and they are somewhat older movies now, but every time i watch them I cry... It doesn't matter If I have seen the darn movie a million times... it just gets me every time I watch them.
Husband however... never cries during movies... I tease him and ask him if hes a robot or cold hearted or something lol

I know for me I don't like to cry where other people can see me. When I watch a movie or get hurt tears may build up in my eyes, but I quickly let them dry up and make the excuse of allergies because I have always tried hiding my feelings. Although sometimes I don't do that very well because if I am really hurting I break down. But when I do cry I go to my bedroom and do so until I don't have any tears left. There are times where I am listening to music and I just break down and cry especially here recently as I am going through some things.

It does help to be by yourself because it enables us to get everything out. I know my dad has always went to his garage when he was hurting. I know the day after my Grandpa passed away my dad headed to the garage and was there for the longest time. I knew never to bother him because he never wanted to have me see him cry.
I know people may think that I am a bit strange because I am a woman and I don't like to cry and to some degree I wish I could show more emotion, but I can't. See, I have no trouble giving people hugs or what not, but personal feelings are another thing. I know that I am a very loving and sensitive person and when my family or friends are hurting, I hurt as well.

Yes we are to be this way as the bible shows we are to share in the feelings of others, so that we can show how we sympathize what they are going through. Even the bible says that our Lord Jesus coming in the flesh was for this purpose also, to show us we have a Lord and Savior that can sympathize with us because He came in the flesh to endure the same things we deal with everyday. (Hebrews 4:14-16)
Good morning everyone from the Pacific Time Zone.
I'm just waiting for my morning meds to kick in so I can go for a short bike ride. My physiotherapist wants me to keep pushing my elbows.
It's going up to over 100F or 39C today, so I have to get out pretty fast. I seem to like the heat, which is a good thing, since it is pretty hot here in the summer.
Please pray for my left ring finger. The swelling from the flare won't go down, and I'm losing range of motion. It's been over a month like this, and I'm worried the finger may fuse and I will lose use of the finger, which will end my flute playing.
OK, I hate RA with a passion right now! This has just been a long, hard six months with constant flares. Trying to find the good in it, but not feeling it right now.
Forgive me God!

I had a terrible time yesterday which led me to contemplate why I even joined this site. Fellowship was the main reason. I don't have many Christian friends I hangout with. Most of my other friends don't want to discuss "religion". I will try again, but I will not participate in the Catholic hate threads nor will I answer anymore Catholic questions. I realize now the questions are just set ups to ridicule me.
I'm glad you didn't leave. And yes, stay away from trigger threads. I hope people will be kinder to you.
Just because we disagree with your doctrinally, doesn't give us the right to attack you personally and be cruel.
I hope everyone will remember that.
PS. I have a couple of really good friends here that I disagree with on a few non-salvic doctrines. We don't let it bother us!
