Do any of you consistently tithe when you can't? Do you tithe when you don't even have the money to meet your bills month after month? Please spare me advice on how to improve my situation financially. That's not what I want to hear. I want to know what God has done for those of you who have...

There's nothing left. The past 4 years since the economy collapsed have been one long, unending struggle to survive. When the economy collapsed, I was 56 and making $60K per year. That dropped to half - sometimes less. The "hope and a future" I thought I found at my most recent job... well, that...

Thanks for the insights. Either, or both answers could be what's going on.

I have a friend who escaped from her abusive husband about 18 years ago. She has gone through a lot of counseling - still has some to go. My question is, why would someone who escaped from a wife beater choose to watch every movie that comes along that is about these kind of sick...

His thoughts are higher than mine... I have been faithful with what God has given me, and the results of that have often been unexpected in my life. For example: Four years ago, I got a $4 per hour raise and chose to go against all worldly advice (which was to invest all that extra money in a...

Thanks for praying MarkDVR. Sunday was yet another exercise in spiritual warfare, and sadly that was because of fellow Christians who more commonly try to tear down my faith than build it up. Show me in scripture where it says we are not to seek God and lean on Him for EVERYTHING? Show me in...

Well said Monsomnee. I am "white," but agree with you completely. Churches are dead. Why? Because too many Christians lack faith, repentance, and the desire to completely submit to God. To associate with them makes me feel like I am walking upstream in a downstream world.

Great message, God's Fighter - you express the plight of many in the USA exceptionally well. (Me included!) And I, too, have come face to face with the horrendous lack of compassion of many who have sat secure through this economic downturn. I've been in a trial that has lasted 3 1/2 years so...

I often wonder if I have the friends I do for a reason. God frequently uses me to mentor other believers, so when they speak things to me that don't line up with scripture I always counter (gently) with scripture to encourage them to walk in faith in their own lives. I LOVE your response - it...

I can't even get a job for a dog walking company, and I actually did apply for one. Of all the resumes I have sent out I have only gotten one interview and that was for a very small company that had a cat in residence. I couldn't take the job because I'm allergic to cats. As far as working with...

Huh? That reply just doesn't seem to mean anything. Job 42:7-9 7 After the Lord had said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “I am angry with you and your two friends, because you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has. 8 So now take seven...

It seems I have more "Job's friends" than anything else. I have more friends that go their own way than wait upon God. I have more friends that believe "God helps those who help themselves" than those who stand on scripture. I get more un-scriptural advice than scriptural. So this is what I...

Our guy quit and I can't, and won't, go into why because I'm just a member of the orchestra so I know nothing. We need someone who can direct both instrumental/choral and contemporary. We use K-Love music arranged for orchestra and choir and as well as contemporary arrangements of hymns (think...

LOL! How true!

If they had chosen to live according to their faith, I wouldn't have had to spend that $500

They paid, after I paid a lawyer $500 to give them a reality check. That money is long gone now.

It has always seemed to me that someone with a testimony such as mine, and someone who has been "worked over" by the Lord for as many years as I have, is called to some sort of ministry. That hasn't happened with me and I find it puzzling. It would have made sense for me to have felt driven...

It has always seemed to me that someone with a testimony such as mine, and someone who has been "worked over" by the Lord for as many years as I have is in some sort of ministry. That hasn't happened with me and I find it puzzling. I maybe should have felt driven to become a counselor or...

Answered prayer! Thank you - and Praise the Lord! Today my lawyer and the lawyer from the company refusing my pay talked. I will be paid now - on October 1. Having the words "my lawyer" come out of my mouth, especially in regards to problems with another believer, is just SO wrong. I do...

Matthew 15“If your brother sins against you,b go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. 16But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three...
