And thank you for being mine Yes....we have strong sons who are beautiful and a blessing in our lives. We truly are blessed to have them!

I'm about to look at it now!

ETA: They are awesome! I've never heard of them before...thank you so much for sharing. They remind me of the old Commissioned group!

Aren't they a blessing? My son loves this song.

I have to check their background. I know they 'followed' the 'wave' of Commissioned.

I heard that 'twists' weren't good for hair growth...

Yes, they are. Their melody is phenominal....

 

[Shimmie]

I'm so happy I'm a believer who knows who she is in Christ Jesus and not allow the enemy and his tactics to have control over my life. The bible tells me to "cast down imaginations and every high thing that will exalt itself against the knowledge of God, and bring every thought to the obedience of Jesus Christ." 2 Corinthians 10:5

I'm so blessed to be able to have a ministry where I can be myself...God uses me so much with people. There are so many young adults (19-32) who come by and visit me, call me on the phone, hang out together, etc. We have good bible studies and the one thing they always say about me is that "You are real...no fake, no phony! I appreciate these young adults because they are so open and honest and respectful. There's nothing like being around them.....

My prayer is that the Father will continue to add them to my life. Bring more Lord! There are so many that want someone to talk to...someone that totally understands them....and someone that won't play being a christian...but will be one!

Hallelujah...thank you, Jesus!

Beautiful testimony....

They're not full of 'excuses' either or falling upon crutches to keep from growing up in the Lord. They are standing firm in the faith with their hand to the plow and not looking back, but forward unto the Lord.

Thank you, sis. When they do try to have 'excuses', they are respectful and that I can appreciate. We work it out...and that's what its all about!

ETA: I spoke to a few of them about the CF today....we will begin to have some visits soon...they love this type of stuff

I think this forum needs a subforum entitled: I'm Christian, love the Lord, and enjoy fellowship AND would like to ask questions and discuss different aspects of my beliefs without ridicule from the "righteous".

 

[Netta1]

MSA that could work..but the "right-eous" are posting "right along side", so then what? LOL

Romans 14:1-4

Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things. For one believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables. Let not him who eats despise him who does not eat, and let not him who does not eat judge him who eats; for God has received him. Who are you to judge another’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.

I was looking for this scripture or a related one...where it talks about not doing something that another would consider sin...to edify him. Not that you consider it sinful, but he's weak in his faith etc. Do you know it?

I think all of Romans 14 is a good example of that verse 19 in particular

I am the righteousness of God, cause Jesus lives in me!!!

Glory, Hallelujah....Thank you Jesus for living in me!

Good Morning All,

I've been reading through a few threads lately and I'm seeing some serious problems among some of us. I refuse to take "sides" because there is no point in such a position. I lurked the LHCF for almost a year before joining and the CF was a large reason I joined.

After thinking and reading and thinking some more, I was lead to post my personal scriptural motto.

Psalms 34:14- "Turn from evil, do good, seek peace and pursue it"

This scripture has keep me from so many pointless arguments and disagreements through the years. Most arguments have very little to do with the other person. Once we are secure in our own beliefs, who care what others think? There have been plenty of threads I don't respond to because it's not worth loosing my peace over.

There are plenty of things I believe are right and true about being a Christian that most of you wouldn't agree with. I don't discuss them much on the forum because I know that some responses would upset the peace I have so I just let it be. God knows my heart and when He see fit for me to change, then I will.

Seeking and pursuing peace isn't posting sarcastic messages back and forth or making snide remarks in "coded" language.

It's agreeing to disagree and letting God do the rest.

Seeking His face should be our only concern ladies. I honestly think we've lost that focus.

PEACE and blessings...

I'm so blessed because of the 'Ministry' that has been growing in the heart of my son. It's too awesome for words. He really and truly has a heart for God.

That is so wonderful, sis. It's a blessing to be able to say that our children love Jesus and want to serve Him and Him alone.

God bless you and your family, always.

Jesus was friends with prostitutes and tax collectors, all kinds of sinners. You mean I can't be friends with another because we don't see eye-to-eye on certain issues and we're supposedly on the same ship from Galilee? Wow, what happened? Hey friend, why you hiding from me???

 

[♥Lamaravilla♥]

I don't understand...

The Lord is so wonderful...we can't even grasp it all, that's how huge His wonderfulness is!!!

The Potter's Hand, by: Darlene Zschech

Beautiful Lord wonderful Savior
I know for sure all of my days are
Held in Your hand
Crafted into Your perfect plan


You gently call me into Your presence
Guiding me by Your Holy Spirit
Teach me dear Lord
To live all of my life through Your eyes


I'm captured by Your holy calling
Set me apart
I know You're drawing me to Yourself
Lead me, Lord I pray



Take me, mold me
Use me, fill me
I give my life to the Potter's hand
Call me, guide me
Lead me walk beside me
I give my life to the Potter's hand

I couldn't resist. I had a long day of typing contracts. Turning in...

[jwhitley6]

Have you ever just meditated on how truly awesome God is? I did today and I couldn't help but sit in silent reverence, amazed that He would allow me the priviledge of just breathing His air another day. I am NOTHING compared to " I AM" and so unworthy and it's only by His grace....

 

[Shimmie]

Father, I have no regrets in the choice I've made to serve and honor you. No regrets, for what you asked of me to do. No regrets, for prayers of love and of sacrifice; No regrets, My Father God for the honor of having you in my life.

You've never failed me and each promise you've made, you've always fulfilled. You've reproved 'kings' for my sake and have had them removed, from the paths you've placed me upon.

You gave life where death hovered over; you gave grace, which I've never deserved; you've given me children who chose to honor you and you've blessed us indeed.

When I look at the heartaches of those around, I give them this prayer from you, I've found....

Evil can't get close to you, harm can't get through the door. He ordered his angels to guard you wherever you go.

If you stumble, they'll catch you; their job is to keep you from falling.

Psalm 91:10-12 MSG

Not a random thought... Yet, an 'Honor' to My Father, who art in Heaven. :Rose:

 

[Almaz]

People who use Scripture as a means to berate or belittle others. Then go and complain about it when that person is telling a truth really gets on my nerves.
