Okay.......I wasn't going to reply to your thread because it would seem that you have had replies in abundance, but then I thought about it again. Anyway, here goes......... I do not disapprove of gay people [this may take a minute to explain, so please bear with me]. I have known some very...

You know, sometimes I get that too! And I do take my issues to the Lord and thank Him for delivering me out of whatever-it-was, and try to go on with my life. I guess I figure that I might have pain about certain things until I either die or He comes for us, just by virtue of the fact that I am...

No, you're not off your rocker! I can relate to your statements. Sometimes I think, "Well, maybe it would be BETTER to think thus-and-so, instead of being so....so......narrow-minded, maybe." And then the Lord makes it clear to me that I am in His Will by standing firm and not moving from where...

I felt kind of a foreboding when Obama was running for office, and now I know why! I think that there is kind of a Hitler-ish thing going on here, and I most fervently do NOT think that this is the way to fix our healthcare issues, to the point of fasting and praying, as someone brought up. What...

Wow..........sounds like you all have some awesome quilting projects!!!! SOunds wonderful. I agree, Moda fabrics ARE wonderful, and there are also a few others, like Hoffman [their batiks are to die for]. Love it! Mackenna Ryan, I was trying to figure out if I could do one of her blocks by...

Ohhh, let's see. I have a Grandma's Bunnies quilt that will someday be finished. It really is cute! It's a hand-applique quilt, and I am going to work on all of them since I can't make up my mind which is the most adorable *LOL*. It may take a long time, but that's okay. I have a double...

Just lookin' around. I used to work in a quilt store here, and I love it! I love the creativity, the patterns...........it's quite the addiction. Is there anyone out there who also loves to quilt, and what are you working on?? I've got about three thousand [okay, an exaggeration] projects I'm...

May the Lord Jesus Christ give you His Strength through this. And beyond!! May this season with your son be used by Him as a testimony to the power and Love of the Lord. My heart bleeds for you, my sister, and I do pray that the Love and Life of Jesus Christ surround you and your family. :prayer:

I am so sorry for your situation. I do pray that the Lord Jesus Christ will bring blessing and abundance to you again. May you know the joy of the Lord, even in the pain you have at this moment. His Peace passes all understanding, and I do pray that for you also. May He also endow you with His...

May Jesus Christ bless you and keep you. May His Hand of healing be upon you, and may He keep you under the shadow of His Wing!!!!!!!!! :pray:

Yes, it is a head-scratcher!!! I know people who were used of God but didn't know Him, and I know some passionate christians who don't have the gift of tongues but most assuredly operate in the Spirit. Hmm, maybe the Lord is saying that we can't put him in a box {LOLLLL} ?!!?? :P

Yes, I do believe that it must take a pretty deranged person to perform this kind of evil. Good heavens, may the Lord have mercy upon this family! This is beyond saddening. I fervently hope that they came to know the Lord in their last moments. May God forgive them!!!!!!!!!!!! :bow:

I think that a lot of us can say with certainty that we have been hurt by the Body of Christ *ouch*. And I do know that I have done my share of this hurting, no matter how unintentional it was *more ouch*. You have some wonderful, God-given advice before you. Pray......the Lord sees you...

Don't know about dinner, but there are some decorations that were put aside from my first Christmas. I love to get them out and look them over!!!!! I am adopted, and my parents were thrilled that first year. Lots of great memories!!!!!!!!!

I don't blame you!!! I also have never been able to wrap my mind around this atrocious thing. I think it's appalling, and I for one would not consider it an 'act of love' to have scissors thrust into the back of my neck, and my brains sucked out. I would have cried for a month over that one. I...
