WWJD club

[Eldaah]

Hi All,

Hope things are going well and you are getting to know God more especailly in the run up to Easter. I have been thinking more and more WWJD!

I dont want to be a pain but please can I be added on to the list I was on a list a few pages back Iand dont apper on this one. Sorry

Katie

You're not being a pain. Thanks for pointing that out. I had thee list saved on a wordpad and whenever I wanted it I just copied andd pasted it, but I forgot to add you to it on the wordpad, thus you vanished. Sorry bout that.

I've been feeling somewhat closer to God these last few days, but I've been failing a lot as well. I think I might be getting sick, which is no fun. Also, I ask that you all pray for me. I'm going to be taking the GED test in about two weeks, and I think I can pass almost all of the sections of it except one. I am thinking I will have some trouble on the essay part of the test. Please pray. I will be taking it (Lord willing) on April 18th and 19th. Thank you all.

Will do my friend.

It is the General Education Developement test. Basically, If you pass it, it is just like graduating from high school. Mostly, people who dropped out of school who need their diploma (or something equivalent) take the GED test to get it. But, in my case, it is a way to get out of high school. I am way behind in my work (mostly because we have been moving a lot lately) and I just figured that this would be the easiest way to finish high school. Most people my age can't take it, but since I haven't been in a public school for two years, I can take it.

 

[Eldaah]

Good Morning All! How is this day going for you all?

 

[onefaithfulservant]

I'm doing well, and you?

 

[Eldaah]

I'm doing alright. I'm sick though.

 

[onefaithfulservant]

I'm sorry to hear that. I'll pray for you.

Praying for you, Eldaah!

Good morning all, Eldaah you'll do fine on your GED test and I pray you get all better.

Praying for you,

Melissa

 

[wolfman544]

Good afternoon.

 

[kanga22]

Good afternoon all. I'm sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well Eldaah. When I get sick I try to use the opportunity to slow down and spend more time reading and relaxing. It's difficult for me to force myself to do those things when I'm feeling energetic and well. You could spend this time studying for your GED just so you know you are as prepared as possible.

Btw, I do not have any bad feelings or thoughts toward you for expressing your opinion that women should not be pastors or missionaries. I'm glad that you are planning to rethink what you said and were obviously thinking.

You asked how we are... Today I am restless, irritable, and discontent but I'll survive.

 

[cristianna]

Afternoon everyone! Just doing a quick check in to see how everyone is doing.

Praying for you Eldaah and Kanga, and all of our members here!

Praying for you, kanga!

i learned something important about JESUS last night: In John 13:31-18:1 JESUS presents HIS teachings concisely. I am going to be blogging on these teachings both here and at my main blogsite
http://lonnienord.blogspot.com

So why is this important to this discussion? I think, as i've expressed before, that:

In order to do what JESUS would have done we need to know what HE would do and the best way to know is to read/study the Gospels.

So here is today's blog:
Before the feast of Passover,
JESUS knew that HIS hour had come
to pass from this world to the FATHER.
HE loved HIS own in the world
and HE loved them to the end.
2 The devil had already induced
Judas, son of Simon the Iscariot,
to hand HIM over.
So, during supper,
3 fully aware that the FATHER
had put everything into HIS power
and that HE had come from GOD
and was returning to GOD,
4 HE rose from supper
and took off HIS outer garments.
HE took a towel and tied it around HIS waist.
5Then he poured water into a basin
and began to wash the disciples' feet
and dry them with the towel around HIS waist.

Note:
1. HE didn't skip Judus
2. No one commented until HE came to Peter

12 So when HE had washed their feet
(and) put HIS garments back on
and reclined at table again,
HE said to them,
"Do you realize what I have done for you?
13 You call me 'teacher' and 'master,' and rightly so,
for indeed I am.
14 If I, therefore,
the master and teacher,
have washed your feet,
you ought to wash one another's feet.
15 I have given you a model to follow,
so that as I have done for you, you should also do.

is HE literally asking us to wash each others feet?
only if that is the best way to serve.
what HE is really asking is that we serve each other because:

34 I give you a new commandment:
love one another. As I have loved you,
so you also should love one another.
35 This is how all will know that you are my disciples,
if you have love for one another."

Praying for you, Eldaah!

"by His wounds you have been healed"( 1 Peter 2:24)

Thank you all for your prayers. I'm still sick, but I'm beginning to feel a little better. Yesterday I was having trouble even eating anything, but now I can eat without feeling too sick.

Good afternoon all. I'm sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well Eldaah. When I get sick I try to use the opportunity to slow down and spend more time reading and relaxing. It's difficult for me to force myself to do those things when I'm feeling energetic and well. You could spend this time studying for your GED just so you know you are as prepared as possible.

Yes, I should try to do that, but whenever I don't feel good, I have trouble making myself do anything. I need to work on that. I have thought about what I said about women being missionaries, and I think that I have figured out what I believe. I think I believe that women can be missionaries, but not in the same way as men. I do not believe that women should preach. So I think what I mean to say is that I think women can do missionary work and help people and witness to people, but I don't think that they should preach. If you don't agree, please don't get upset with me. I am just clarifying and correcting what I said earlier. Please don't be offended. This is just what I believe. You don't have to agree. And I'm not trying to turn this into a debate.

Yes, we should serve each other in any way possible. We are all called to serve Him. He served, so why shouldn't we. In order to do what Jesus would do we need to serve others.
