  1. Why Flattening The Curve Is A Flawed Concept And Why You Should Be Patient In Sheltering In Place.

    Why Flattening The Curve Is A Flawed Concept And Why You Should Be Patient In Sheltering In Place.

    The continuum of responses to the COVID-19 range from isolating as much as possible, to continuing our normal lives as much as possible. Within this continuum, one response is the idea that to shelter in place will flatten the curve of infection, so that rate of infection will be a lesser...

    Believing in God, there is more time to wait - than waiting can end

    Hi there, So basically I just wanted to start with a truth, and then see where it took us: "believing in God, there is more time to wait - than waiting can end". What does this mean? It means that prophecy will always lead to more prophecy; that is a hallmark of a prophet: he does not simply...

    Does God reunite a couple when the timing is right?

    Hello, I'll ask my question first. When you are in a relationship that seems to have a Devine hand leading it, but you mutually decide that the timing is off, does God reunite them when they have achieved their personal growth? And can you know/will God tell you if it is his will? And here is...

    We Wait Patiently

    Romans 8:24-25 ESV For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. Recap The hope in which we were saved is described for us in Romans 6:1-23 and in Romans 8:1-23. Jesus...

    Struggling while trying to save that space for the right guy

    Hello everyone, I have a guy friend A who I have been friends with for many years. Years ago we had gone out on few dates and ended up liking him more as a friend, since I had just gotten out of two abusive relationships and I wasn't ready to date. Plus, I was being immature at the time and...

    Struggling with patience and perseverance.

    This is my biggest problem is I don't wait for God to relieve the struggle I've been going through. When I get an intrusive thought that brings me down and when I get panic attacks. I just want to give up and just... break. When will God finally relieve me of anxiety??? I'm loosing faith by...

    Little Update :D

    So I've been reading the book of John for the past couple days, breaking up a chapter into 2 days. And I've been feeling good like I'm growing closer to God and I'm getting to know Jesus better. I've just been a little terrified about the things that have been going on in the world. Like it's...

    Education

    Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to...

    Keep His Way

    Saturday, August 26, 2017, 4:57 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Great is Thy Faithfulness.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Psalm 37 (Select vv. ESV). Trust in Him (vv. 3-6) Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. Delight...

    Wait Patiently

    Sunday, July 30, 2017, 9:15 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “The Letters.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Psalm 37:1-11 (ESV). Fret Not! (vv. 1-2, 7) Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers! For they will soon fade like the grass and...

    Do you ever just feel like most peoples fruit is bad?

    I mean I do but not in the way I worded the question. We have all this time to do stuff for Jesus but it's like we don't do it and I'm like, bad fruit. So do you ever doubt that people who claim to be Christian are actually on the narrow path to the Father? I was reading some comments on a...

    What One Week Can Do

    Status: God's got my back! So I don't know if my testimony for this past week means anything or if it's wishful thinking (or maybe I'm just not good at discernment/feeling the holy spirit) but I want to say that I think God made a good promise to me this week. It was a trying week with the...

    What is something you wanted and prayed for a long time and it took God a while to answer?

    If so, were you happy that the answer to your prayer was delayed and was the answer what you expected ( or even HOW the prayer was answered)?

    The New Norm

    John 16:31-33 (NLT) Jesus asked, “Do you finally believe? But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when you will be scattered, each one going his own way, leaving me alone. Yet I am not alone because the Father is with me. What is your new Norm? Has your life been scattered? Are you...

    Pure Minds

    Wednesday, April 19, 2017 – I woke this morning around 2:00 a.m. The passage of scripture from 2 Peter 3:9 was in my mind, concerning God’s patience toward us, he being willing that none should perish, but that all should come to repentance. I believe the Lord put that scripture in my mind...
