I've been convicted about something today. I was joking yesterday about the Bible Discussion Forum and the more I thought about it, the more that seemed like gossip to me, ya know? :( And I hate gossip...

The Bible Discussion Forum is among the first people see here. New believers and unbelievers are seeing that. We should care about that more. A lot more. It's not really funny, is it? :(

I know it gets irritating and depressing if we stay too long or get caught up in the merry-go-round topics, but, we really are supposed to be taking a stand for Christ, aren't we? Our lives are our own and our time is not our own.

We've been blessed to come to know Him. The Truth He's shared with us is a treasure. We're not supposed to be burying it in this forum, are we? :(

So...I for one will be entering the frey a little more often. Not to argue, but to share Truth. To take a stand for Him. If someone wants to argue foolishness or semantics, there's no need for me to engage. Just let the Truth stand for itself and let people do what they will with it.

Jesus did not permit Himself to be dragged down by Pharisees and fools. He simply spoke the Truth and let it do what it does - Convict WISE men/women of sin and direct their paths. A fool will neither recognize Truth nor even know what to do with it once he does no matter what you do or say.

I hope you will pray and consider joining me. It's time to tear down some walls and move some mountains. I want to be like David, Joshua and Caleb and say ...Yep...there's a few giants. So what? Let's do this thing!

If you've got a slingshot and the ROCK, you're good to go :)

In one of those spiritual moods, where I'm willing to give all I am to Christ, again... But I feel hopeless to succeed in anything of real value.

Do it :) It IS hopeless to succeed on our own, but we are never without hope in Him. Never. :)

Sunday morning about 4 am I was in my kitchen, I bent down to grab a piece of fruit, stood up, got lightheaded, blacked out and fell to the floor. I've never experienced anything like that before. I didn't get hurt. I've been on these pain pills because I hurt my back. I think that's why I passed out.

I just want to thank God again for not getting injured and it being something more serious.

Anyone else post something that looks like it gets no attention, but in your head you're thinking, "Oh. Come. ON!! That was sheer brilliance!"?

Only because I don't want to litter her thread with memes and odd remarks quite yet...

Don't you know we're supposed to sit in our straight backed wooden chairs, reading our Bibles, as we wait for the ONE to magically appear next to us?:p

God, why did you make me broken if you aren't going to at least fix me?

We were born into brokenness.

Romans 8

18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be comparedwith the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. 23 Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body. 24 For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us[b] with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

He will.

Rev 21

21 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. 2 Then I, John,[a] saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of Godis with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

For now we wait in hope.

Romans 8

24 For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

Have you ever been in a very vulnerable place in your life (years ago) and spent time with someone you were led to believe was a follower of Christ only to discover that, not only were they not, they gossiped about you to a Christian "friend" of the same gender who never came to you to discuss the matter?

It's really hard not to be creeped out by stuff like that, huh?

Not sure what you do in such a situation, except these things:

- Pray the same thing does not happen to your "friend"
- Pray for the gossipmonger
- Pray that God will help you to remember never to become involved with anyone, believer or not, when you are not in a strong place

Got lunch, went shopping with my sis, and got a new candle...and food. :p Peanut butter spread is my weakness. I also saw the Desolation of Smaug in 3D! :D It. Was. AWESOME! The bees got to me a little because they made it feel like they were passing right by your ear. (I have a fear of bees.) It also was a lot darker than the Hobbit. I don't think I liked that aspect as much, either. But it was a good movie!
