That one challenges my soul sometimes. Lately, some of the kindest people I know have been treated so poorly. Inside I hurt for them and so badly want to call these people out on their behavior and actions, but deep down I know that the Lord wouldn't want that. Thank you for sharing the scripture.

I love this post! There is no better place to go for encouragement than the word of God. The Lord really brings a lot of peace through it. Tonight I heard this song on the radio and it made me cry so much. It reminded me that the things that we go through, though not always fun or easy, there...

Why do people repeat the same mistakes?

I agree, women should be shown respect, but I think men do as well. That respect may be shown in different ways, but both equally should receive it.

Selfishly, I would love to just sign the papers and then live happily ever after. However, I'd settle for a simple wedding that was God centered. :love:

My favorite flower is the Daisy. :)

Me too! :) I LOVE wildflowers!

I think long distance can work, but only for so long before it either ends in marriage OR just completely ends. If you WANT a relationship, long distance for any length of time makes the unlikeliness of it happening increase. I should say, I think couples that live in the same area that delay...

Thanks for making me laugh. :-) IF I think about myself asking people I know and even asking strangers how they are doing, I actually do care and intend on listening. When I hear "getting by", I naturally want to know more. :) Like is something wrong, what's bothering you?

That's exactly what I was thinking. What about with people you do know, those you work with, family members, friends, neighbors? I typically still have the same response. I'm right there with you, if it is a lie. :-)

Anyone that knows me in person thinks that I am good and do everything right. ----> This is not only A LOT of pressure, but it's so unrealistic. It really makes me be very careful in what I share about those I know, my perception of them. I think our perception is going to be different than...

You are more than oridnary, that's for sure. :)

I had a random thought tonight, while walking through the store. Someone that knew me (I have no idea who it was) asked me how I was doing. I answered the way that I always do, "good, thanks and you?" It's pretty rare that I respond any other way, even when that's not how I actually feel. I...

My initial thought is, yes of course I'd wait, but I don't know if that's true. I suppose the thought that makes me second guess myself is, "why wait?". IF you know who that person is and it's guaranteed that you'll be together, why is there a waiting time? I think knowing who it is and...

Very interesting thread. :-) It's had me thinking a lot. I'm at a point where I'm not "preparing" for dating/marriage. I don't feel like that's where the Lord wants my attention. I think we should all improve our relationship skills in general, but I think that's done by being around people...

I tend to get quiet when something bothers me. I’d like to be with someone that is vocal when it comes to issues.

I am quite fond of hot showers (I may use all the hot water), so someone who doesn’t mind cold ones would be a bonus.

You are right. :) It is wrong and her thoughts aren't biblical. I wouldn't worry about it, sounds like she may have her own issues.

I’m sorry to hear you’re going through this. I pray that the doctors will be able to help with the wisdom and healing from the Lord. Hoping comfort and peace will fill your room as you wait for the next step. God bless!

Welcome to CC!! I hope your time here is blessed! 🙂 Indeed, God is so good!
