    Any Words or prophecies here?

    I need to make a decision. Not being specific as to what and aren't stupid enough to act on something said here. Just wondering if anyone feels they have anything they think might be from God in case something 'connects' for me. Thanks.

    Moving Across The World.

    How do you deal with parents that are apparently upset and angry that you are moving across the world? :-(

    Unsupportive husband.

    I've just had a sad and amusing thought ... my husband gets more excited when I get a load of towels dried on the line outside than when I pass a university course. Anyway, I'm just wondering, how do you manage in a marriage when you are your own support? I'm sure I can't be the only one!

    Making hard choices.

    How do you resolve a situation when you have to choose between two situations, neither is a bad choice, both are desireable, God would approve either and possibly doesn't mind which choice is made - yet you feel torn between them because you want to do both but that's just not possible? While...

    Children can sure make a person feel guilty.

    My 9 year old misses being homeschooled. He's not unhappy at school but misses some parts of homeschooling. I do believe that homeschooling provides a better education though there are pros to the school system as well. I'm actively involved in their schools. Meanwhile, I'm looking to do...

    To homeschool or not to homeschool?

    I've homeschooled for over a decade then had to stop while I recovered my health after illness. Over that time I've become qualified in a field I'm passionate about. Now that I'm recovered I'm feeling torn. I'd love to go back to homeschooling but I also want to do some further study in the...

    Friend or not?

    I have a friend who will only get together on her own terms. She won't get together before 11am as that is too early and too hard. She is home all day and has few commitments. I am working and studying. I've tried to meet her half way by offering to get together on a day that doesn't really...

    I am sad.

    God has been so good to me in my ministry/career life. I am about to start something new at a higher level - obviously the next step God has for me all in place - and this is better than I dreamed. However I also love my job. I love my work, I love the church I work in, I love the vision, I...

    On the verge of leaving a church.

    But it's hard to do when I have relationships there. Spiritually though, things are just not right. And to cap it off, the pastor has told a lie from the pulpit that many know isn't true. Time to walk?

    Not too happy about this situation. CSA.

    My mother has decided to be friends with the mother of the guy who abused me as a child. She knows it happened but doesn't know who. How would you handle that?

    What would you do here?

    The next step is clear to me, the door has opened, but will not begin until next year. This is going to entail a major relocation on our part. There is so much to do at home here to prepare and some study I need to do first. My half time job is a ministry position and I do love it. I will be...

    Feedback needed on churches to attend.

    I have never had any denominational affiliation. I have gone to church but I have not chosen by specific denomination. I am a Christian, simple. I just want a church where I can serve God. I have a good theological understanding, a good understanding of different theologies. I've been a...

    Uh oh ... or am I being too worried?

    I have submitted an application with work experience that dates to September 2008. I originally put Sept 2008 because tying up loose ends took me into that month but my official finish date was a month earlier in Aug 2008. I'm worried I've inadvertently given incorrect information. Does it...

    Not even sure what to title this.

    Husbands can be very self-centred can't they? Mine is certainly not selfish but can have a very self-centred outlook. I have agreed to move far away from family, friends, leave a job I love and start again to make his life easier and for the benefit of the children. Part of the agreement was...

    Looking for suggestions.

    How do you handle this? I'm looking for different ideas. We are moving. I work in ministry. Ministry is a small world. I want to tell my friends I am moving at the end of the year but if I do that it will get out and there is a risk my employer will hear. I would like my employer to hear...

    What would you do?

    If you were told by someone you could tell something to someone because it was all in the open ... and then they changed their mind and you'd already said something because you'd been told it was ok days before?

    Has anyone experienced being in a church where they just don't fit?

    Especially if it's been for a while? I've been in a church where I made it all the way to the highest levels of leadership yet I was always a misfit. It was a really difficult few years but I find it's really shaken my confidence. It's not all about me, though I'm not perfect, there were...
