You know what movie I really want to see? It is Hidden Figures. I just thought that was very important information that everyone should know. LOL

Well I did something weird today.
I unclogged a toilet using a 1 pint paint mixer attached to a power drill.. It worked--but I don't think I should share such an innovative concept with others. But I just did so there you go hehe.

Wow. see, this is what's wrong with the world. Opinions such as these that are out in the open by both sides without compassion. I'd beg the question if anyone really knows anyone at all?

General question: do you know her story? Does she know yours?

The point: quit making assumptions about people and take the higher, less desirable road. I say less desirable because it's the road less used by many.

This is Christian Forums, not the Gossip Forums.

Are you serious, Miss Swan?

This thread is about 'What's on your mind?' and that's what was on my mind, sharing an experience I had through the day. I found your reply quite rude actually.

Two people (including an elderly citizen) are sitting in a car minding their own business when a young woman begins pulling the fingers and cursing them for no reason - this is disrespectful and uncalled for.

I hope you don't justify such behavior. There is no both sides with compassion argument here.

If one cannot even share their thoughts in the 'What's on your mind' thread, it's a pretty sad state its become here.

My life is going down in shambles, even worse than last time and I do not see a quick resolve this time. It's very likely that major changes are going to happen in my life that's going to cause me great pain and stress.

I would like to request some prayers. I'm already petitioning God to end my life and I'm hoping He'll listen to you better than He does to me.

You just prayed for a woman that would exit the vehicle and physically assault a woman who, at worst, assaulted your sensibilities.

Rocks in glass houses and all that.

I don't know what kind of environment you grew up in.

But if young people are out of line, they would get a clip around the ears and told off by either their parents or others if the parents are absent.

This generation is a weak one without discipline.

You are talking about assault, I'm talking about corrective actions against wrong doing.

There's a rocket ship.

It is on my mind that I just posted an emoticon of a rocket ship.

I recently discovered a far less extreme method of unclogging a toilet - dishwashing liquid and hot water. I suppose that it could depend on the nature of the blockage, so maybe there are times when a power drill is necessary, but it definitely worked for me.

Stop that, Wayholka. DON'T say that. If life weren't so precious to God then it wouldn't be all that we have here on planet Earth in the span of 70 or so years. I'm not saying that you aren't having as hard of a time in reality as you think you are; I know your daily life must be more difficult to cope with than the typical human being, considering your situation as you have given us glimpses of through your posts. But still, please, don't ever think like this, asking God to make it so that your life is over. There is a hope and promise of immortal life with Him one day for those who believe in Him, but for now, I firmly believe this life is all we've got, and you never truly know just how much your life - even if it seems worthless and miserable to you sometimes - might mean to others who are in it, and how much they might miss you.

Still, I will pray for you. Please keep your chin up.

I am glad to hear that, Nicole.

EDIT: But as to insight, well, this probably won't count for much, but ... In a way, haven't we already been set free the moment we confessed Jesus Christ and He saved us? At least set free from the worst thing of all, the inevitable wages of sin, death. We still experience death here in our Earthly lives, yes, but at least in that death as we sleep we still have the hope of a resurrection unto life eternal, yes? In the second death - the utter destruction of body and soul, all that we are - there is no hope, as it appears to be the utter end, thus it really is the only death that can truly hurt us in my personal opinion. But THAT, we are free from upon accepting Christ as Savior. ^-^

But if you mean set free from the troubles we still face here in mortal life, well, unfortunately, I doubt that can ever truly be reached 100%, at least if you mean absolute perfection. But we certainly can get as close to that highest potential of freedom from sin and brokenness as God wills, if we just keep our eyes on Him while we still live on Earth in our imperfect, sinful forms. But until the day all things are made new, the heavens and earth and all within, I fear it can never be totally, 100% free for us. We'll just have to be patient, I guess.

Say, um, are those corrective actions as you have suggested in your post along the same lines as that "lightly beat your wife" thing I've heard about in the Quran?

(No, I am not defending or excusing the actions of the abrasive woman who gave you the offensive gesture, either.)

(I'm not basing the below following based alone on your post for what I'm going to say)

I've been a member on here for over 6 years and have really enjoyed sharing fellowship with people who have come, gone or still remain here (which are few now).

Since I took up Islam recently, a lot of my Christian 'friends' who I enjoyed sharing fellowship have turned their backs on our friendship just like that. It's not a nice feeling as I thought they were friends and it wasn't just based on what you believe. It seems I must have thought there was something more when really there wasn't.

It has taught me a good lesson. I will not make this mistake again or waste any more further time with such people.

I don't feel welcome to Christianforums anymore as a Muslim, so I'm going to leave. Some may ask what I'm doing here to begin with - well fyi I used to be Christian/Messianic.

@Wayholka Thank you for treating me with respect. I pray God guides you and helps you with the troubles you are facing at the moment.

@kittysbecute @RayofSun @TheOliveSeed @Somber Thank you for your friendship over the years. You have been a great treasure to have as friends over the years. You know where to find me if you would like to continue our friendship.

May God guide the rest of you.

ReesePiece23 · Apr 21, 2017

I just want to say @EyesOfKohl that I respect you and your faith enormously. And I can see from your posts here that you're deeply committed to your beliefs. (Respect being the deepest)

I won't be popular for saying that, but I'll respect anyone who has the respect for themselves to speak out about what they believe in. And then stand by it.
