What's on your mind?

[.Mikha'el.]

I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm praying for your family. Please let me know if you need to chat or anything.

I’m sorry for your loss. May Adonai comfort you and your loved ones during this difficult season. God bless.

Thank you.

Why do people only reach out when they want something? It is like radio silence until something happens in their life. But, what about me and my life? I just do not get it.

You have @Multifavs to thank for Athena the Silver Noble, to be sure it is known.

@Multifavs has certainly put her God-given talents to good use. It's been a while since my last drawing on CF, so I'm expecting to be rusty.

Very well-made drawing. While I'm pretty iffy on the name (Ex. 23:13), she's a nice side-kick character.

My brother can hear an interview going on at this work. "Describe a time where something you did went unnoticed but made a big difference."
Ugh, I hate the kinds of questions they ask at interviews!

I feel like race relations have taken a big step back the past 15 years or so. If it ever starts improving again, it will disintegrate again.

You’ve mentioned this more than once. Perhaps its time to evaluate your connections and seek the Lord’s guidance. Your comments frequently appear one-sided. Where one party makes the effort (and does the work) and the other doesn’t. Edifying relationships are a must for spiritual growth.

I wish everybody cared about God and Jesus.

 

[GodAndChocolateVanilla]

It's still cold outside! I'm disappointed.

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 7:21

What is the will of The Father?

 

[GodAndChocolateVanilla]

I want to follow Jesus but I don't know how.

 

[GodAndChocolateVanilla]

I wish God would give me a job to do for Him. I feel lost.

 

[GodAndChocolateVanilla]

27For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

Matthew 16:27

 

[GodAndChocolateVanilla]

29And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 30And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

Matthew 5:29-30

What do these verses mean?

I wish I could live with other Christians. I think it would be nice!

 

[DragonFox91]

God's not dead, but his church is. Or will be dead by the end of next generation. She has been so unfaithful to him & it's costing her her life.

I wish I could live with other Christians. I think it would be nice!

Your parents aren't Christians?

I want to follow Jesus but I don't know how.

Read, study, and KNOW Scripture, daily (Rom. 12:2, 2 Tim. 3:16-17). While there's no perfect Bible translation, I recommend starting with the New International Version (NIV). It's a Grade 7 reading level. I also recommend finding as many different Bible versions (WITHOUT any Apocrypha and Deutercanonical books) as possible. Bible Gateway is a good place to start, but physical copies are much better. [1][2]

On April 5, 2022, at roughly 8:30 PM Eastern Time, I've added ChocolateVanillaLion's missing quote. My apologies, I'm a fallible human being who's predisposed towards selfishness.

29And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 30And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

Matthew 5:29-30

What do these verses mean?

Fuller context:

Adultery
27 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ 28 But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30 And if your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.

~Matthew 5:27-30 (NIV)

Hyperbole used to describe how serious this sin really is. Sexual abuse starts with gaining the wrong person's attention. This is why modesty is key for both genders. With the Butterfly Effect, how much of our current problems are a result of an ancient Greek man peeping on a woman bathing in a river?
