I wonder if it is similar to how people speak of Mexico City's foundation, with mud putting them at risk for quake damage. Lord, bring necessary ideas to mind of the leaders and response workers, as well as residents. Lighten any potential damage and protect human lives.

Thank you for writing it out for the forum. I have heard other near-death experiences where people sensed God gave them the way out, if they chose it. How reassuring! It is comforting to think that loved ones who die might have that one last chance. Might. Everyone goes through different...

Thanks for the invitation. You might want to read the forum rules here -- most forums do not want visitors to use their server space to promote other forums. Just sayin'.

In my teens, we were visiting a Pentecostal church and the whole congregation was told to come forward for knocking down. Everyone fell but me. I mean everyone. The pastor physically pushed me hard a few times, and got frustrated with me, so I stepped back. I was having a very spiritually...

Phobia is a great word for snake dreams -- I'd never heard that before. Some people here have felt that snakes in more global dreams represented spiritual dominions oppressing regions/countries... which would also tie in with phobias. Feeling oppressed and overwhelmed by something that made...

In general, I agree with what you said... I tend to play devil's advocate too often to balance a discussion. I think that right now, everyone is struggling to hold things together.

Picture if you were a camp counselor for a sports camp (archery, survival, football whatever). The first day of camp, you show everyone where things are and make sure they are fed and bunked. Tour of the camp, a couple games, an icebreaker. The next day, everyone wakes up at 6AM for the daily...

Elance.com ... but make sure you have the professional versions of software.

This may sound odd, but in listing how she spoke of doing it, it makes it sound as though you are setting up an alibi. If you really want to protect her, don't put details on an internationally-public forum. I know, the forum is for situations like this, so I am not trying to discourage your...

That was so close to literal, don't you think? There are aspects of the ministry that you have gained from, but you could bring those same things into your region right now.

You sensed something amiss, and should look into the specifics of what is off-base. It might be something small that could be corrected. I don't know the story, but I've seen other people die at convenient times in their lives... everyone dies earlier than they plan to. I almost think the...

Yesterday the History Channel aired a show on ancient aliens. (Yes, you always catch me in these geeky habits.) They compared similarity of design of the Jerusalem temple with another ancient site which was named as a landing zone. (Ba’albek Lebanon??) This might end up relating to what you...

Legs give us mobility and strength. You can climb with your legs, kick and jump, run and walk. The bruises came from inside your body, instead of the usual outside bumping or being hit. A corruption that you couldn't control -- which is frustrating, because we like to be in charge of...

Some people find that renewing a friendship brings up old feelings, that they have chosen are unhealthy for them. Also, if she is dating someone else, that person might have made some sort of declaration on contacting old boyfriends (like it or not). If she does not contact you back, she has...

That's great, you must be happy. I've heard a lot of church folk laugh at that sort of statement, as though it weren't really true... but just like a person can feel alone in a crowd, there are times when they can feel apart from God in a church. Jesus went out into the wilderness to pray. He...

I wonder if that happens more often when a worship leader is on the payroll... trying to live up to certain expectations.

Ditto. My best release of stress or lack of inspiration is to start a new project, even if I don't have time to add something new.

The last two decades have brought hundreds of strong female characters that fit the description of what I'm hoping for. Sandra Bullock snorting at her weaknesses but truly strong. Lara Croft unflinching wit, strength and agility. But I think it's also time to address some changes in society...

Sage advice.
