by the way, Amanda, when i felt down once i actually flipped to Habakkuk myself unintentionally. it really does speak about misery. its a marvel how God works doesnt He? praise Jesus!

It really is amazing

Oh, wow Jo, God doesn't just love you as you are - He ADORES you!!! You may find that hard to believe/accept. But it's true. I mean none of us deserve that He adores us, and thinks we are just WONDERFUL!!!

But you CAN believe this! It's true. Know what? It's true even if you have trouble believing it. How about THAT! Because when a thing is true... then it's TRUE!!!

We say, 'But I'm not worthy.' Or we THINK this anyway. Of course that's quite correct. BUT... that is NOT how He sees us. He sees us as TOTALLY worthy! Mind-blowing, hey!

"Lord, we are SO grateful that you see us as beautiful, and that you adore Jo. Just as she is!! Wow, that you do that is just so amazing! Thankyou for your great love for us. Please reveal to Jo how You see her - so she can start to see herself as a-okay too. Cos she is! You are so wonderful and we love you so much!!"

And so do both of us, Jo!

- Bondman and Mrs Bondman


EDIT: You said, "i just cant understand sometimes how God can love me and other people!" But do we NEED to understand it? No, because this is basically impossible! Just gotta accept it! Don't try to figure it out, analyse it, query how it could be, or understand it, etc. Just accept it!!!

He loves you - He just DOES!

Thankyou Bondman and Mrs for you so kind words, it means a lot.
just wanted to add that yes i do have to accept it and keep doing it. i went to a healing meeting about couple of months ago on the subject of Healing of emotional pain. when me and my husband were walking down the lane at dinner time i said in my mind i choose to accept peoples love. i hadnt realised i hadnt been doing it. as well as accepting gods of course.but i know i have to keep doing it. its been such a habit for me to do that and to deny his love an peoples please pray i can keep in it! thankyou. and i read your article about self-esteem wonderful that really helps a lot. god bless u love Jo

Hey, you guys! Leave some o' them chocolates for me!! *starts salivating at the thought*


*Note: I'm not a chocoholic, but I do like 'em nonetheless. Thanks, bg!!!*

 

[foreveramanda]

I have a friend (she is not a person on here but a girl I know somewhere else) her husband is in Iraq right now and he was injured last night. The shrapnel was so far into his leg they were not able to get it out. And they are not letting him come home. My friend is also bipolar and is just starting treatment so I am really worried about her and him. So please if you could pray for Sarah and Evan!



Father I left up my friend Sarah and her husband Evan to you! Sarah is going through a rough time right now Father. Give her strength to get through this tough time. Father give Evan peace and help him as he does his job even though he is injured. Father surround him with angels and give him all your light and peace. Father I do not know where Evan and Sarah stand with you but I know that they are your children and that you love them. Father surround them both in your comforting light and embrace! I love you Father! Father calm the nerves in my stomach! You know what I am feeling right now and you know I have this deep routed fear that Brett will return to Iraq and they won't let him out when he is supposed to get out in Feb. Father all things are possible through you and I hand over this burden to you. There is nothing I can do right now except for wait so I am handing over to you this worry and the fear, sadness, and sickness that comes with it. Thank you Father.

Your daughter

Hello peeps! Hehe! so happy to see u all!

im feeling all weird now. tomoro im leaving home to go down to Kuala Lumpur. its scary. im leaving the place where i am fearless and full of the assurance that love is unconditional and going somewhere foreign and unpredictable. its scary! when i think about it i can actually cry. im gonna go somewhere where theres a possibility that people are gonna be judging me or rejecting. its so crazy.. im scared!

anyway i guess each of us has our own difficulties. i mean, its life and i gotta get over it. sigh.

 

[Criada]

Praying for Sarah and Evan.
And for you and Brett, Amanda! God is in charge - He will sort it out! He always does, you know!

Praying for you too, BG. There is also the possibility that people will see how lovely you are and love you !! I'm standing in faith for that!

God bless you all.

And thank you, Greenthumb, for the sweet comment!

FAMILY

It's so wonderful to see the family in action here! God's love IN us is a never-ending astonishment to me. His agape love changes us from selfish, self-centred, self-absorbed (and hurt, even seriously hurt) people into those who genuinely CARE about others - including those we've never even heard of before, and certainly don't know!

Best of all is the fact that we can FELLOWSHIP here every day of the week!!! And numbers of times a day! Wherever someone is in their life, others will soon be there to encourage, pray, rejoice with or weep, or whatever!

Almost unbelievable... Not too many situations we can do THAT!!!

"Thankyou Lord God for the Internet, where we truly can be together, and love and support each other daily. What a blessing!! I gotta sincerly thank You for two things: showing me this as something SPECIAL and worth doing, and moreso letting me be involved in actually doing it! You are so incredible Jesus, that I couldn't stop loving you if I tried for a million years! Nor would want to!!"

Love you guys!!!

Aw...sweetie! It's okay to be scared. And yes...we all have our difficulties and we do have to get over them, but you know what (hmm...I'm actually pretty sure you know this well) God will never give you more than you can handle and He will always help you "get over it". You know what always amazes me about that? God knows that you can handle it. It may seem insurmountable to you, even absolutely terrifying...but you don't have to fear because God will give you the ability to conquer it. All you have to do is reach out to Him, and with His help and strength you will "get over it".
In the meantime though...praying that you know His strength and peace and calmness as you head off on your own. God bless you bg.

He loves you - He just DOES!

good reminder ... I am an 'analyzer' myself, and have trouble w/this same question ... feeling that if God loves 'everyone', then i'm just one of the crowd ...

an illustration that has helped me ... someone who made quilts talked abt how she loves each one ... they are all different, but each is special in its own way ...

Greenthumb><> God will be with you.
Would you been happier just staying where you are doing what comes easily or did you /do you pray for challenge.
My son said it was easier for him to ''Go'' to China than to stay where he was wasting time in an uninteresting & unstimulating job.
