I totally get what you are saying, and although I have no idea what God did or did not actually tell the couple, it did annoy me that Ramsey said they couldn't possibly have heard from God. Ol' Dave might know how to turn a dollar but that don't mean he speaks for the Almighty. 🤨 But yeah, I...

Be verrrrrrryyyy, verry quiet. We are hunting manfolk. 🤫🤫🤫

I had always wondered if that was the story behind your username but it seemed too personal to ask. Thank you for sharing and I pray the Lord restores whatever the locusts have eaten! 🙏

Hey Miss Seoul, great thoughts and questions! As far as the part I quoted above, I read the article twice and it didn't say how much the couple had actually "invested" in the crypto, just that their holdings were, at one point, worth $90,000. It did say they had held on through 5 years and 2...

It's possible that they are both right, in a way.... perhaps God led the couple to invest in those 3 cryptos, but maybe it was so that they would be able to pay off their debts. I think American Christianity tends to have the mindset that if God directs us to do something it's gonna be huge...

Thanks! My mother taught High School English and Spanish, and when we were kids she used to say "Bzzzzttt!" whenever we used grammatically incorrect phrasing. I learnt it right real quick lol 😜. Just FYI, you can use the same method to figure out she/her/he/him. "He went to the store" "I went...

I agree with you Edith. Discipleship and outreach are major focuses at my church, and I am often tasked with recruiting volunteers for ministry projects. The most reliable volunteers are generally the singles, the older/retired couples, and the married without kids couples. The young couples...

Just going by the way I was taught grammar and the proper usage of I/me, your initial statement was not incorrect. 🤓 If you want to test your phrasing, just remove the other subject and complete the sentence. "This was true for me" = "This this was true for me and my wife" Or.... "I had the...

I was referring more to selfish fulfillment, or perhaps seeking marriage with the assumption that it will bring fulfillment independent of God's specific blessing on the union. I do not subscribe to the theory that "Any 2 Christians of opposite gender is all it takes to make a marriage." Perhaps...

"My wife and I" is proper capitalization. 😉

Great questions, I had to take a trip down memory lane to answer them! Hearing from God can be different for each of us so I can't say how it would/should look for you personally, but I will tell you my experience: I had been getting frustrated with my "pay the bills" job for quite a while, but...

One more thought on kids and service projects.... I have noticed a tendency to sort of hide behind the "doing", not just with the kids but sometimes even the adults. But a word spoken in due time can be very powerful, and the "doing" is ultimately useless if we don't let the person know WHO...

Hi roughsoul, since you are specifically looking for opportunities for kids, I'll tell you what our youth group is planning for the Summer: I'm putting together 2 or 3 bouquets 💐 a week from my garden. I'll ask God to pick a few kids at our regular Wednesday meetings and head down the road to a...

I appreciate @zeroturbulence. Also, Taylor Swift wears too much glitter.

That's great! "Whatever your hands find to do, do it with all your might". Just a little story; my business existed as a part-time venture for some time while I had other work to pay the bills. Then I felt God leading me to drop the other pursuits and put my efforts into the business...

I will pray that you know what to do. If nothing else, it sounds like you learned some valuable lessons. I know it's stressful when you have so many relying on you. ☹ I'm a small business owner as well. At certain times of my life, it has meant working 70-hour weeks for minimal pay. Yes, God...

Aww, thank you for that verse miss Hope, it made me tear up! 🥲 I appreciate your sweet spirit and I know God has cool things in store for you, kids or no kids! 😎 Yeah, that sounds like my kiddo😬☹😜

Lol DANGIT MEM, I WAS ALREADY FIGHTING CALLING SUB "Shuboidaloildaldroid" , and NOW YOU ARE JUST CRANKING OUT ENDLESS BRAINWORMS TO THE POINT I AM GOING TO LOSE MY GRIP ON REALITY. 😒 I am going to start calling you The Memtalist.

Lol I never ran across Snackers but that would have been amusing! I wasn't very active on the site between 2013 and 2023, maybe they were posting during that period? No relation that I know of! 😁 Nope, I had always wanted kids but haven't married. At this point biological children are pretty...
