    The hypocrisy of the left Part: I

    Agreed....but so many believe they must choose a side and the fighting never stops.... I stay away from politics but I will say this, if I were to classify myself as something it would be an independent. All decisions must factor in time we live in currently...A decision that worked 30 years...

    The hypocrisy of the left Part: I

    I personally have grown so tired of the left vs. right fighting. I have come to the possible realization that these battles have been and always will be for the sake of keeping balance. Balance is essential for the smooth operation of many things. Isn't it baffling how elections are almost...

    What’s a man to do?

    My opinion: As the head of the household, you should do what you believe will provide the best chance of happiness for all. I totally understand you dilemma with being afraid to do something else. If your desire to have outside approval from the outside world is your goal, then maybe a step...

    Trust and faith when you deal with anxiety

    Then know that you are willing to keep going where many will throw in the towel. A good quote by Baylor Barbee says: When my body gets tired, my mind says"This is where winners are made" When my mind gets tired, my heart says"This is where champions are made"

    Trust and faith when you deal with anxiety

    Agreed.......However, patience for something we desire is not easy and at times uncomfortable but, a foolish person can choose to agree that, what they want is not gonna happen and run away......Even though the other side will never be rewarding. I believe that anyone who has a dream and desire...

    Single Mom

    Let me guess: You automatically assume that since you have 2 kids, there is no way possible any guy will not judge you for it? However, as an older person, my views on women with kids has changed dramatically since my 20’s.....I look at a woman with kids as someone who has been blessed with...

    Is there any truth to this statement?

    I seriously have a hard time believing that anyone meets on the exact same page of life and mutual romantic love follows immediately. However, I believe that either the guy or girl reveals their true feelings and if things are meant to be, the test of time will eventually bring them together...

    divorce

    Ever ponder this? Some people refuse to wait for the correct timing of things and jump right into what THEY want NOW. It falls apart then we ask God to bless our impatient decisions. How does one know when they found real love? Or are just settling?

    Can I change reality with my words?

    My take: Looking back on my years....40.....I remember responding to a person or situation that in the act of speaking, I felt myself thinking, Did I just speak that?.....It didn't make sense at the time but, looking back, it could be apiece of your life puzzle that eventually fits in due...

    I am a mess up:

    Your mind seems to be being pulled in all directions......I honestly cannot offer some possible guidance due to the many directions.....I wonder how old you are? It sounds like you are younger.....Maybe early 20's....The age where we analyze every single action because we fear letting the...

    How do we withstand Loneliness?

    I think this challenge is the biggest almost anyone can face in life.......We have a desire to not be alone but have yet to see the promise........Out of all life's virtues, I believe patience is #1.......We live in such a fast paced world that waiting for anything seems to be too much effort. I...

    Can a man love ONLY ONE woman?

    I did not read too many responses BUT, I believe that finding someone that is a "suitable helper" for you is essential in lasting joy. I do however believe that not many have the patience required to achieve such a goal.....It is one of life's great mysteries how time can alter our view and...

    marriage partner for your adult children

    My opinion: The term boyfriend/girlfriend is only a temporary person that most of us encounter on our quest to finding who is right for us.....Yes, the peer pressure to feel like part of the crew is a strong pull but, if something doesn't feel right to someone, they should follow their gut...

    What is a difficult verse for you to fully understand?

    I know that as we mature, words we read at an earlier time seem to take on a new and deeper meaning but is there anything currently that you may not fully understand now but may in the future? For me currently: At the wedding in Cana when Jesus responded to his mother as, "Woman, what does this...

    Jesus's sacrifice

    I interpret the crucifixion as Jesus showing us the way. Matthew 16:24-26 English Standard Version (ESV) Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus 24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his...

    Our Lifespan on Earth

    In short, can you see a man's heart? They may seem evil on the outside but only God can see within. Us humans have limitations no matter how much we believe we are all knowing.
