    Expectations of Bible study leaders?

    I understand your dilemma, as I was in the same situation. Well, almost. The issue was for husband and wife to serve in the same church. I simply had to pray and go with what the Holy Spirit convicted me to do. After much pleading for our bible study group leader to address the issue, I left...

    Which is the better fit?

    I'd say both....30-40 somethings can give you dibs of what marriage is like after a few years. Therefore, they're advice would be better received due to their experience. 28-30 because I'd like to be around my peers.

    Significant people in your life this year

    Well....They said He died and rose again. I can't see Him. Yet, I feel His presence encumber me with such a magnificent energy I have never felt before. His aura shines and guides me through a narrow pass. He is my direction in all the things I do. His name is Jesus. Oh...you said...

    Dorky "ex" won't leave us alone!

    Fast....You have a rather complicated dilemna. But if the Lord can make the lame walk, feed the 5,000, what more of this? We serve a Living God. Give this to Him and trust in Him to take care of this for you. I'll keep you in my prayers.

    Staying Content with Being Single

    I must say I'm very much content. I tried substituting God for women and other materialistic desires. But I was never happy. Only the peace that the Lord has given me sustains me. The fact that I have this time to serve Him brings me so much more serenity in my life.

    Do you believe that having someone special in your life will make you content?

    Only if that special somoeone happens to be our Lord, Jesus Christ. I've tried to have faith in people, only to be left disappointed in the end. I used to try and substitute women for what was missing in my life. But you know what," I'm single and content with life." What I was missing was the...

    Dorky "ex" won't leave us alone!

    I don't doubt your sincerity. Nor make light of the situation you are in. May I ask a simple question? Per your title," Dorky 'ex' ......" What do you mean by ex? ex-what? ex b/f? I'm inclined to think he's some sort of ex-boyfriend, without having read the thread. I mean....You wouldn't...

    need advice from guys...is he interested?

    I agree. Tell him you're not ready at this point. And that his kindness is greatly appreciated, but you can do things on your own. Tell him that you just want to concentrate on school.....j/k

    how can i talk to him more about the bible?

    At this point, the fault no longer just lies with him. But also you for having gone back and forth. I think you are about to have your time with the Lord. No matter what is said on this thread, you have not heeded any advise from your sisters, nor brothers. The more we say," No," the more you...

    Prefer doing things alone?

    I do it all the time....Watch a movie by myself at home. Out in the theatres I'd go with friends. But when I'm at home, I don't have to worry about abnoxious people and their cell phones going off. Or that kid that kicks your chair. I can pause for a rest room break. Most of all, I can lay down...

    I'm a Christian in love with a Mormon woman..

    Of course, the devil believes in God. So he also hears our prayers. That's why we have been forwarned in the bible not to be yoked with unbelievers. "...........but I know that in my heart if I had to choose loyalty it would be to the Biblical God....." My brother....You answered your own...

    Guys and Gals

    double ditto. For God's purpose is always good. Our flesh's desires are deplorable. But the fruit of the Spirit....well.....there are just not enought words to describe it.

    how can i talk to him more about the bible?

    Your sisters are right, you know. I really don't even think there should be a next time. If you ask me, I would just leave. After you told him it wasn't okay to touch you that way, he still insisted. Then he tries to con you by telling you 90% of the population thinks that way. Be very...

    A deal breaker?

    Well. I'm so sorry to hear that about you and your daughter. I'll definitely keep you two in my prayers. You did a very brave thing. It takes a lot of courage to have done what you have done. And because you loved him, even as a brother in Christ, you were straightforward with him. I admire...

    Broken heart

    Sis, I know your pain. There was a special person put into my life. And all of the sudden....pfff! Gone. Sayunara. All I can tell you is that I'm not happy about the situation. But God has always given me peace when bad things like this happens. All I can tell you right now is spend your time...
