    Obsessing over "I love you"

    I keep posting in here; I AM seeing a therapist but I haven't told her about this. But I've been feeling like I'm falling out of love with my boyfriend. I DO NOT LIKE this feeling. I want it to go away. Lately I've been WANTING to say "I love you," but I can't say it if it's not true. It's...

    The beginning, was a love story (selah)

    Hi there, So yes, it is typically not read as such, but the story of Adam and Eve in the garden was a love story - Adam and Eve were in love with each other! To them, God was a joy, to be pursued and beheld. Any attempt to describe the beginning in terms of science, falls short of the one...

    Prayer for my Dearest Sisters...To the moon and back...

    Good evening. It's twilight hours where I am, but I've been kept awake by the thought of some dear people close to me who have a changing event to attend tomorrow, that would allow them to pull their community up from where it is and change many lives. They are a group of 12 wonderful young...

    Five Little Poems About My Life

    Notes Of Encouragement

    I visited my cousin GiGi's church in Santa Barbara one Sunday where there was a guest speaker. At the end of the oration, we each thanked her at the pulpit and found a pile of sweet little scriptures that were rolled up like a scroll with a tiny ribbon keeping them bound. Each contained...

    Did Jesus surpass three commandments?

    Brothers and sisters, happy Sabbath! As I see it, Jesus made 3 of His commandments more demanding in the new covenant and added an 11th commandment for a total of 11 commandments as the minimum love that God wants us to show God and neighbors. “You have heard that our ancestors were told, ‘You...
