I have a suggestion that you might try out @Lon1934 It is random but when I considered your hearing loss... Can you read sheet music or learn? I have the ability to "hear" music without it being actually played. Reading song lyrics for example. Or a statement that someone made or a thought...

It is finally disabled for my account which I very much appreciate. PM route was successful :)

Thanks for that. Reading this thread with that at the end is having a pleasing effect on me. @watchman333 ignorance of some things there is no excuse...specificity that only the Lord possesses most certainly is excusable. I don't focus on dates myself...I've tried to figure it out but...

"I prune a lot". Don't you mean to say as the vinedresser he prunes you? Certainly we can "weed" and practice good stewardship but there are limits I have found. That's the child-like element that sort of imposes humility by default. Right now I'm imagining falling a mud puddle and cleaning off...

Hey thanks everyone. @StrugglingTilMyReward I'll keep that in view. I'm going to have to focus on strengthening the muscles surrounding so that doesn't happen again as easily. If only I could @everyone in a thread...would be nice. It was a rough ride, but about wednesday I was able to get...

I'm going to have to lay back down. thanks for the help. I'll try getting into a sitting position if I can.

yeah I've just had someone to help me with ice packs...I violated this and slept with it on, which allowed me to get up for about 30 mins to set up for bed rest. I had read that alcohol was helpful but it only seems to help for the duration of it being in system....and then I seem worse off. Not...

Is this a satire?

I was helping out with some dishes and apparently that put undue strain on my back. It started out as just strain, but now is in full blown spasm mode (lower back) It has been harrowing and I have prayed about it for sure, but additional support would be nice. I can't afford to go to the...

What does voluntary even mean? Consider the youth in proverbs 7 and begin with verse 5. Is he at fault here? But...but I didn't know! I didn't do it on purpose...and to some that would look like "extenuating circumstances" in today's world. Joseph ran though when confronted by this. I...

Consider that this was under duress. Since you didn't provide any potential conclusions, I find this a helpful track. Either way it didn't occur.

I find it productive to counter this mindset with scriptures to the contrary. Phillipians 4:13 comes to mind. Sometimes I think I've put all the burden on myself, and of course failure is all but assured. I'm not 100% that it's me doing things in my own power and strength but when I just...

good thought. Long before app versions were common for sites there were mobile friendly versions. Back in 2011 I would get on a website on my android and it would be impossible to read...and really far out image of the site, but if I double tapped it would zoom all the way in and then reorganize...

You can get a pretty cheap go phone on the android system for about $30. It will only work on wifi but that's an option :)

What are you having issues with? What this man says or what the word says? I would posit to you that these questions are beyond the scope of any one of us "fully". We aren't greater than the enemy by ourselves, so it seems quite simple to put forth arguments and "logic" that is beyond us, or at...

I'm hoping I can get everything worked out tomorrow. Exercise is good for exhausting you to sleep. Also Proverbs 6-7 are a good read.

Well it's always a nice feeling to have resolution on an issue and have it behind you. Especially when it presents a crisis and you aren't sure on what you should do. I had that happen with a car issue and eventually it was taken out of my hands and is behind me. Maybe not worth all the stress...

Thanks for the update. Care to share a little bit of why you decided to go through with it? I understand honoring your parents, but other than that? Great job posting back, such an uncommon thing to see :)

I'm confused. Who are you quoting, it wasn't exactly clear. It looked like a paste and I wasn't able to refer to the original post.

Keep our eyes on him being key. When we lose focus, we start to sink. I don't think we drown...but we can certainly get stuck. The body is helpful in realigning our focus "sometimes". It is certainly helpful when others are resolutely gazing on his glory to be encouraged to do so also. If...
