Galatians 1:10 has been the story of my life. Although there are victories I feel like the approval of man is going to be a lifelong. purification process. This life is about the glorification of the Lord and not the glorification of the self. I have to remember that and I have to remember to pray for others. It's weird some days when I feel like my enemies become my friends (frenmies) and is where I thought somebody was my friend are going through a struggle and maybe don't treat those that they are supposed to be close to in the nicest manner. I guess this is part of being human. I'm thankful for the times that the holy spirit gives me peace and doesn't let others be a persuasion for how I treat others.

Reference the passage where Jesus calms the storm. Be still in the Greek means be muzzled. It was warfare meant to hinder what followed — the Gadarene demoniac.

And here’s a word for you both I heard a few moments ago (in reference to the above).

Sometimes when we’re on a particular assignment that means a great deal to the kingdom of God. Satan will have his agents planted in every situation and circumstance along the way. This is a good sign God is going to do something special if we do not become discouraged and lose the victory on the way. God can silence anything if we have faith.
Wow I needed to hear this today. Thank you! Praise Him!

Thanks for the video.

Sometimes it is the little things that counts.

It's kinda scary when I think about, but I have kinda been living like supporting character.

We've all done the same. But messages like that challenge us to do something about it. Now you have an opportunity to do so. :)

I'm wondering what the best way is to tell somebody that you don't think they are a suitable long-term match? If it's a couple days it seems easy. But if you have corresponded for over a week with short messages, how do you let someone down if the most respectable way without them being hurt too much? It's such an awkward thing to do and sometimes I just don't know... Some people are receptive and thankful that I gave them closure, some don't know what to say so they don't say anything at all and unmatch after 48 hours. And every once in awhile there may be someone that drills me with questions as to why.

I can guarantee that the Abuse Victim Diet (TM) will ensure that you never need to lose weight again. :p I actually need to put on weight! Steak, Ham and pretzels are the best.

Thank you @bèlla. True indeed. Opposition, though immensely painful and sometimes frustrating, can indicate that you are on the right course.

I think I will next appointment I am there, even if she does not show up. As I said before, there is little doubt that Latanya the desk lady who first said "Will, we need to hook you up, darlin', and I know just the girl" at the start of this year, will be eager to share what words she and Sally had to say after I left last time. ^-^
