O
I have not read every word of every post, but I have read many of her posts and yours as well.
Earlier this Summer a thread was started in the BDF and someone wrote that many people believe they are wheat ready to be harvested, but in reality they are tares. This caused me to pause and reflect on my own heart and actions.
I've come to understand that although I am indeed a child of the Living God, saved by grace in Jesus Christ, I present myself as a tare far too often, hence my propensity for being sarcastic.
I've been spending time reading Scripture and praying on bended knee asking God to purify my heart and help me grow in His manners and ways. Since then I've experienced a softening of my heart and have been much more respectful to folks here, but I have a long way to go. A work in progress if you will.
==============================================================
this precious POST has humbled us and given us great joy.....
a beautiful TESTIMONY our Brother Utah has revealed and shared!!!
we just can't help but to REJOICE when someone confesses that they have been behaving in a manner
that they realize is un-acceptable to them and most importantly, to our Father in Heaven.....
Christ is always our Example......
