That's just it....how do you develop that relationship?

I have a stain on my background history and it was very difficult to find a job. I prayed to God and kept the faith. God put people in my path to help me. I got a seasonal job, which turned into a part time job, which turned into a full time position. It took three years for the full...

Yes, but the question isn't whether or not people have a choice in the matter. The question is, are there people out there who God has put together? Is there one person out there for you who is more suited to you than anyone else? Of course, we all have free will; I really don't see why that...

I'm glad that you feel better. But forgiveness isn't a feeling; it's a choice. I have had some horrible things happen to me during (and beyond) my childhood by family members. When I accepted Christ, I had to choose to forgive my family. I was bitter, depressed, and hopeless. One night, I...

I have some questions. Did you meet your fiance online? And does she need a visa to get into (or stay) in this country? What country is she from? How long were you engaged?

I think that we should remember, if only so that we don't get complacent concerning terrorism. We should remember that God is there, even in the midst of tragedy.

I agree. I would not propose to my future husband for the reasons given. If I have to take the initiative with proposing, I feel as if I would have to take the initiative in other areas as well. I want the man to lead, and it starts with this. And why wouldn't a man propose? I can't think of...

This is one of the most honest posts that I have ever read on a forum. I think that there are a lot of men out there who feel the way that you do, but they just don't want to express it. My mom and I were talking the other day, and she said "They sure don't make men like they used to...

I agree with you, especially the bolded part of your answer. I have been overweight for most of my life as well. I also found myself using food to cope with the stresses of life, instead of turning to God.

This just convicted me (I don't mean that in a negative way at all). I do have a habit of not thanking him as much as I should. Thank you so much!

Thanks for your input everyone. Now the emotions have passed. Update: Today my current boss bought in two hiring managers from HR and had a meeting with them for the sole purpose of finding me another position in the company. There may be a full time position doing something that I like...

Point taken. :) I must say that I never intended to imply that God cared for me more than the other 1100. I have no idea why He chose me. I guess I am wondering why He chose me against overwhelming odds, only to allow me to lose the job. But, His ways are not our ways.....

So, God does not control everything in our lives? He had nothing to do with me getting the job? Sometimes things "just happen"? I don't understand how Christians can believe in coincidences. It's a coincidence that as one job was ending, another one began - even though they were on a...

Hi fm107, I know in my head that this is a test of faith, and all I need to do is just trust. I am just very hurt emotionally right now. I feel like I let everyone down, even God. He got me this job, and I lost it. I performed the job to the best of my ability, and I was let go for poor...

Hello all :wave: One year ago today, I was unemployed. I truly believe that it was a miracle when I was hired for a seasonal position last summer. Then, by God's grace, a permanent position came open where I worked - in a time of budget cuts. Another miracle. Today, I was told by my...

Please pray for me. I was told by my boss that I had three weeks to find another job. By the grace of God, I will be able to get a temporary position in the same company through the summer. I just pray that I find something permanent by then. :amen:

I don't want kids...I never have.
