gratefulwoman

I know with everything in me, that I will go to Heaven. I believe God's Promises for me. It's not a "me" thing that believes I will be in Heaven... it is a "He" thing. 

I am a grateful woman.

Hello Brothers and Sisters!

  Soon my husband will be turning 65 and transferring over to Medicare. Can you tell me about your own experience? There are so many choices!

Upon just a preliminary look  we are seeing that Medicare will require a part B for medical (as opposed to hospital) and then a supplemental for drugs. 

Is there anything imperative we should know before making decisions? What does your Medicare look like... standard Medicare? Medicare Advantage? 

Please share your wisdom with me.  

John, I hear you, Brother. My extended families (mine and my husband's) are Jewish and refuse to believe in Jesus. It is so hard for me to hear that "snapping and popping" (wow, those words!!) of my own loved ones. It is devastating. Have a great day, God bless you.

LOL, John, I like that! 

I kill them with love and light and kindness until "they want what I have".... and what I have, is Jesus.  

I'm praying for you, that God make Himself very present in your life (I also encourage you to continue to pray, read your Bible, get encouraged from other Christians) and that God, in His Perfect Timing, vindicate you if God's Will is in alignment with yours. I am so sorry you are going through this. Stay strong. 

I have felt for a long time now that my mission on this side of Eternity is to be a light. The way I am a light to others is through simple kindness.

It takes no special ability, all it takes is desire. When I see the effects of my simple kindness, it just makes me happy to be alive, and I give the Lord all the glory

for that feeling. 

I would have told myself not to damage my self esteem by looking for love in all the wrong places. I thought my sexuality gave me power.... and I was very wrong. I have asked for God's forgiveness and know that He has and I am grateful, but I still did great psychological damage to myself. I wish I knew the love of God could have given me that love I was wanting so very much, before, in my confusion, I thought love looked like sexual intimacy. Even over 40 years later, I look back at those years with great sadness, because I didn't know better.

Hi Sister! Your husband has a lot of scary things going on, and pain can make a person miserable, even if they believe in the Lord with all their heart. 

I understand how hard this must be for you: you love him, you worry about him, and you want him to hold onto God in these moments and he doesn't seem to be doing that. Put your own life vest on first, as they say. Study God's Word and become SO in love with Him that nothing can shake your faith. Reach out to other women to pray for you and comfort you, because though you are not the one with cancer, you are struggling too. 

Also... allow your husband his feelings, as you pray that the Lord reach every part of him on this journey to regain his good health.  

My opinion is, go to the police. You need to regain your power Renee, and if that helps you do so, do it. I can't tell you how sorry I am for the harm you endured.

Be careful though, Sister, because the Devil LOVES to take situations like yours and turn them into something that serves himself, which is to cause distance between loved ones like you and your husband. Please don't allow your husband to be collateral damage to what happened to you. It is not fair for either of you. 

  Sending much love and prayers to you. 

Great news, Willa!!

Thank you for this, and amen! 

This was so beautifully written, thank you Brother!

As much as it disappoints me that people of influence are verbal about walking away from God, I just don't think that if another person is strong in their faith that it will lead them to question it. I think it indicates a very important characteristic about God, and that is, not only are we not His puppets, but He doesn't want us to be. We have free will, and that includes the free will to fall away from the faith. I am certainly very saddened by it and pray they will return with renewed spiritual vigor.
