    Do I fight?

    Well, just to keep folks updated... and to thank you all for your prayers!... I went to court on Friday. My ex-wife brought her husband, her mom, her aunt and her friend. I went by myself. Only her aunt even said hi to me. The lawyers negotiated and talked and we agreed that they could...

    Do I fight?

    Background: Ex-wife and I divorced in April. She remarried in June. We have joint custody but she has possessive custody of our 3 year old daughter. She is going to move 150 miles away and possibly out of the country later at some point (her new husband is in the Army). She professes...

    My sister has left her husband

    TankGirl: I'm very sad to hear that. I will remember you, your sister and your brother-in-law in my prayers. There's probably not much that can be done. This is very similar to what's happening in my life (with my wife). It's a devastating thing and all that you can do is wait on God...

    yes or no, but... game

    No, but I've been to Mexico. Have you ever ever ever in your long-legged life seen a long-legged sailor and his long-legged wife?

    Why is it so hard to forgive?

    I can only think of the Prodigal's (sp?) son. That the father ran out to meet the returning son and embraced him (which if you go back and study the culture, was a VERY odd thing for a father to do). I see that picture in my mind a lot. When they don't ask for forgiveness, I think of Jesus...

    Without me ye can do nothing

    Carmen, I have to agree with Gerry here. You sent me that message about the site that had the book about how to reconcile my marriage. It definitely helped. Then you told me a prayer I might want to pray. And I have. My marriage isn't whole yet or even close. Right now it is dead, but I...

    Help! I don't love my wife but do another.

    Praying for you! It takes great strength and conviction to confess what you have. I say this not to credit you, but the Lord who has revealed your sin to you! You are definitely on your way to solidifying your marriage. Put away all lustful thoughts from yourself, pray for forgiveness and...

    Fruit of the Spirit

    Thanks for this post. I sometimes wonder what to do and how to act with people who... deceive me and cause me harm (especially those so close, cf. Psalm 55)... it is a narrow road indeed.

    Would I be committing Adultery?

    The sin is not adultery if you are not married. The sin is immorality.

    If AOL/Compuserve were a city

    hehe, AOL... sorry, just had to chuckle a bit there. I feel bad for the AOL people... some of them don't want to deal with the hassles of the true 'Net... but some of them don't know any better. I call them the lost :)

    Thread for Texans!

    Sheesh, I don't know... I got so many things to think about! But it's something I need to think about... grrr...

    Could the D.C. sniper(s) be related to Islamic terrorism?

    Well, c'mon the "no child is safe anywhere"? Of course he/she/they is a terrorist. If you're saying an Al Qaeda person, that, I don't know. But they are also demanding ransom. Generally speaking, they are creating public terror.

    Almost Gone

    "suspend yourself from your roof"? Well, I have to say that if I didn't have God, I wouldn't be alive. Nothing seems to be worth it if there isn't a God. But here's a question... you seem to believe somewhat... you haven't totally rejected everything... so how do you know you aren't wrong?
