In the way of searching happiness

[mindfulzen]

Ok, I will keep a lookout for it.

And also the others, if you decide to post them.

Can you PM me, and ask me what the topics was, and see if anything is interesting to you. Debate just ended. Pointless to make new threads if it does not concern you. There are no mods on now, so nothing will be approved now. I feel uncomfortable using this thread for political issues when it is the introductionthread. I also read something relating to your verses and some philosophical issues midlife while being atheist can be explained in person, cleared out before the thread is approved, if it is approved. The debate was not really US bound, it was federal and EU, seems uninteresting for americans, apart from certain issues regarding free speech, academia, charterschools, etc.

Make a thread in testimony, tag me, do not hijack and make this one about you. I sympathize with your hands issue. I never told you I was a good example to follow, just asked you if you wanted to make a testimonythread and get some help since many posts about despair. Do it now or I go to sleep.Big day tomorrow, got bozes to move, because I have done a move. Got some familystuff to do tomoprrowe too. Need some sleep, you gopt 30 minutes to make a testiimony, then I am going to sleep, but I feel for you and want to help you if you got none else to turn to now. I again wish you the best. We love you and so does God if you turn to him, perhaps that is easest to do, you know your heart best Matthew.

You ask someone “have you been drinking “, have you? I see typos on your end as well. I sometimes make typos. Hope someone is forgiving enough to overlook something so trivial when I make mistake.

I haven't thought that there would be so many, diverse messages.😂

I am thankful for the welcome greetings and for others observations. 😊

Maybe the title of my thread was a bit misleading. I didn't mean like I am searching desperately happiness. I also consider that true happiness indeed has nothing to do with the circumstances. It's still sometimes a challenge to ignore negativity from people.

I love you, but I must clear up some confusion.

the path is not one way fits all.

There is only one Path and one Way. His name is Jesus.

But all paths can lead you to the same place.

No. There is a path that always leads to damnation and destruction, and there is a path that leads to eternal life with Jesus. We either accept that one true way, or we reject it. It is just that simple.

John
3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
3:20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

I think this is about praying, and I do not pray.

That's never good. The Bible is meant to be read with prayerful meditation. That is how we seek truth. That is when the Spirit can lead us unto all understanding.

I have a problem with the matthew book,

Please tell us what verse you do not understand. We are here to help each other along in this manner.

God bless you.

Dreamer, Rhonda Byrne wrote 'The Secret' which is New Age--this is a Christian Chat so not sure why you would be posting here. She is not a Christian and her beliefs are of the occult--Satan first tempted mankind with the message "You will be like God. " Anyone reading this who does not know who R. Byrne can simply look her up. She is darkness masquerading as light and any true Christian would know that straightaway. Read excerpt below--and you can easily find many others

From Probe.org https://probe.org/the-false-teaching-of-the-secret/

Essentially she is teaching that we can become gods. We are God in a physical body. We are the creative source and the have the cosmic power to manipulate the universe according to our own desires. We are creating our own reality and thus can manipulate that reality to our own ends.{12}
Contrast that with the temptation in the Garden of Eden where Satan tells Eve “you will be like God” (Genesis 3:5). Why is The Secret so popular? Because we are tempted to be “like God.”
It is one of the enemy’s oldest tricks in The Book. Satan knows that we are vulnerable to this desire to be “like God.” Satan tempted Eve in the Garden with this tactic, and he is tempting millions today with the same tactic.
John warned us of the temptations in the world: “Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world” (1 John 2:15-16).
