WOW!! This_Beautiful_Faith, your avatar is incredible, where did you get the pic?

Thank you elm0! It's a beauty, isn't it? :D ;) However, I don't have it up there just because of that. I have a thing with butterflies; I love them! To me they symbolize beauty, peace and delicacy. They float around so delicately and are so gentle and light - I want my spirit to be like that, so butterflies do mean something to me.

I would have picked it up from the net somewhere so I didn't take the picture myself. I have many on my computer, this is my favourite one though. Thanx for commenting! :D

Well my weekend was good... ITF helped set up for my housewarming, and I REALLY appreciate that.

Church on Sunday was good - it was talking about getting into God's Word, and at the end our pastor asked us to write down what kinds of discussions we'd like to have during the service this year.

Flame, can you guess what I asked for (considering what we continually find ourselves banging our heads against in here???)?? :p

Hi There,

Abiel I love reading your posts and enthusiasm for the Salvation Army. I am in a dilema at the moment. I came to the Father through the Army in Scotland many years ago. I have been a baptist member though for many years but not consistently. I have had thoughts that maybe I should be at the Army it is truly the only place I felt at home but Im in an abyss. The other issue is I cant seem to get up the nerve to go! I know that might sound silly but its a fact. So if you have any advice I would appreciate it.

thanks
Maggie

It's this whole pastoral care of supposedly mature christians who then stuff up thing. It got me down for a little while. Fortunately, my bible study group came round last night and gave me a jolly good talking too! It is really hard not to feel a failure sometimes, even when it is other peoples choice which have caused their own difficulties.
