Trusting God is hard! Especially when we think we have things figured out. It is so hard to "not lean on your own understanding". At least for me anyway.

Has God ever not answered your prayer and now you feel grateful to him that he didn't? This was a question asked by Ruby123 in another thread. I thought it was worth it's own thread. Thanks Ruby! My answer to this is yes. Many years ago when I was in 7th grade I had an interest in a girl from...

They are deceived. But remember, they were created in the image of God. Not supporting their lifestyle at all. It is sin. I have sins also. They need the gospel. It is our job to proclaim it. Expect persecution and struggles as a believer. We're told that is part of it. If you go on a 5 mile...

I think I'd like to go to Israel and to see Auschwitz and other European WW2 sites. Necktie or bowtie?

Biscuits n gravy or an omelette. What's something you've always wanted to do but are too scared to?

Compliments...hmm...I guess I like to be complimented but often feel they are not deserved. From time to time people will compliment me on being a good dad. Most times these people do not know me very well. I used to tell them "You don't see me at home." Now I'll thank them and try to change the...

Probably not true in all cases but in general I agree. Don't know much about Marilyn or Kim and don't really care. Pets belong outside.

Don't know how interesting this is, but it's something. Getting caught up on laundry is like finding that spot on crusty snow that holds your weight. As you start to put your arms up to cheer, you fall through! 🤪

Well I've boasted about 4 of my 5 so far. So here's my fifth proud father moment. Several months ago or so ago my eleven year old asks about helping at school with an art night thing for families to come to. Then after that was over he wanted to help with a similar event for the school board...

No. I didn't try to hard. Technology and I are a lot like oil and water. Technology is like taxes. It seems you can't do without and I don't like it and it doesn't make sense. Follow magentas advice.

Good old Mr. Magoo!

I have to say, I like the title of this thread. Although too many times I'm guilty of this. It is something that my wife and I realized a number of years ago that we were doing about others in the family. We tried to make it a point to not talk to others about those things. Yet, we still fell...

I am sorry to hear that. Can't imagine how hard that would have been. That hurts!

That's frustrating! It's happened to me a few times.

That thing is a little creepy!

Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Psalm 51:10-12

These things do make us proud! It is such an encouragement to here these things from others. It is also an important lesson for me to realize that we need to continue to go to God with our struggles and others struggles also. God does answer prayers. Thanks so much for sharing!

Very interesting thread. A lot of good stuff here. Doesn't apply only to eating too much. Seoul, Your posts are very insightful. If you are not a counselor, maybe consider it.
