Thank you everyone for your kind comments. I don't think (I hope) Th0mas was being malicious. It probably is a stupid name, it comes from my pre-christian days when I used to frequent a parrot forum but sometimes I can be a little crazy when I'm with friends and so I decided to keep it. When I joined CC I was a relatively new Christian and so if anyone does feel it's a little "unspiritual" that may be why but it takes nothing away from my love for Jesus.

Shalom :)

Yah, I know. I have experienced this myself.

Don't be quick to judge my post, please, without knowing. I wasn't suggesting that I did anything in order to get a blessing. No I.O.U's. Far from it. Sharing truth with my husband was priority and not myself. Did not expect anything in return at all. So the blessing was unexpected, but appreciated. The fact he was asking questions was amazing enough in itself.

There are several on here who keep my husband in their prayers, so any additional prayers would be great :)
I wasn't judging your post. The text in parentheses was more directed to myself than anyone else. I apologize for the misunderstanding. :D

Don't let her fool you. MPW is the over-50 crazy cat lady, except she's crazy about parrots. Mystery solved. If you're 40 and over, then you're the crazy cat person. If you're 50 and over, then you're the mad parrot lady.. lol :p

Yep, you have to be a little crazy to keep parrots.

I thought it was a silly question, what may you think proves precisely that I was wrong to question your question?
I didn't ask a silly question and I didn't say you were wrong to question my question.

I think that it's a very nice name. This member is a very spiritual woman and is an asset to our community. Despite your comment maybe she will say a prayer for you. We all could benefit from a heartfelt prayer.
What may you think after comparing what you may look at below ?

I don't judge God wants anyone to call themself that. What may you think proves precisely that He does want people to call themselves names like that ?

The answer she gave me was useful to me.

Okay, I said ditto and amen to tourists post, and I agree with the nice things said about MPW, she's genuine and sweet and probably has 'more Holy Ghost' in her little finger than some people that troll this website.

I thought I was detecting a bit of sarcasm and indignance from you towards MPW, and I sensed some defensiveness in other posts which seemed to be showing here.

Sorry if I misjudged your motives.

Light-hearted sarcasm can be fun if not done with a mean-spiritedness, but it's easily misunderstood, BELIEVE me I know, and there's a few others here that will attest as well, I'm sure. I've been on both sides of it, but I don't have evil intentions.

I wasn't attacking you so much as sensing our friend MPW might have been being attacked a bit, and was merely coming to her defense. I apologize but I meant well.

BTW, you want to find some silly names, just read the bible, lol, there's some real doozies in there.

I was obeying what is commanded in Matthew 7:12 and I was testing as you may think is commanded in 1 John 4:1.


A way to look at Matthew 7:12

So in everything,
do/say to others what you would have them do/say to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

1 John 4:1

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

I hope anyone who doesn't know you enough doesn't misjudge partly because of the name and think that foolishness is being spread.



Moving forward I judged to add:

Proverbs 3:17

Her ways are pleasant ways, and all her paths are peace.

Hello Thomas,

What is your nationality, please?

I think part of the problem I have seen on this thread over the last few days is that (with all due respect) your usage of English is somewhat "unconventional".

This is not a put down about your intelligence, spirituality, or anything else. It is merely an observation.

I don't have any suggestions about it. But perhaps if that dynamic were better understood, there would be less misunderstanding about your meaning and motivation.

Don't stop posting, but perhaps you might ask God about how He wants you to say what you want to post. :cool:


Thanks.

Ezra 5:6

This is a copy of the letter that Tattenai, governor of Trans-Euphrates, and Shethar-Bozenai and their associates, the officials of Trans-Euphrates, sent to King Darius.

I was just thinking about that!

EZRA 5:2 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and Jeshua the son of Jozadak arose and began to rebuild the house of God that is in Jerusalem, and the prophets of God were with them, supporting them.

Amen!

I like your nickname.
If I had joined CC a few years later than I did, I'd have transferred my nick from another place which was the coral snake :p

Good morning all :)

I have been meaning to say for a while now that I keep seeing license plates with the letters MWP, that always make me think of MadParrotWoman despite the fact that the order of the letters is not exactly the same :)

It is odd that a particular person is going around saying that he is testing people, while being completely oblivious that he is being tested and found wanting in his manner of taking sideswipes at others, and then denying it as if we are all blind, while pretending he is Spirit led and others are not. Such nonsense was never meant to be a part of this thread.

Well I do have good news to share, for those who know me and have possibly read my blog. You know that im starting over at a new place I desperately needed a job and i got one. Today will be my first day of work. I thank God for answering my prayers and opening doors for me. May all the glory be to Him! It may be small but for me is a big deal and its the beginning of many blessings to come and i embrace all of it. God bless you all!
