Saw this pic online today:

Ok, here's my story: Shortly after my husband died, a married friend of his (supposedly a Christian) propositioned me. Seriously, he was trying to talk me into an affair with him! I was shocked and horrified, and I wanted desperately to inform his wife (I had always liked her and merely tolerated him). However I had no way of contacting her without running the risk of winding up talking to him instead. So I prayed and asked the LORD to have her get in touch with me. A good bit of time went past, and one day she called me! I didn't know what to say or how to tell her what her husband had done. Turned out she'd called me to tell me know her husband had passed away. So I just offered her sympathy and said nothing about his unGodly offer. She was already reeling from losing him; why should I add to her grief? Anyway, my counsel would be to leave it in the LORD's hands and see if He makes an opportunity for you to warn her.

Believe I'll have to see this film...

I thought it was silly too until I read the article. She texted 10 to 20 times during the first 15 minutes of the movie, and after he asked her repeatedly to stop, she left the movie and drove away, leaving him stranded at the theater. I can understand him being upset, considering how rude she was. (Suing her, however, seems a bit over-the-top to me.)

I didn't get that the second woman was the mother of the first. Not really sure what your question is here. Are you asking if it's appropriate for a man to talk to the young woman about her clothing, or better for a woman to talk to her? Or something else?

I wear a covering. Not many others in this area do, but every so often I run into another covering woman.

Um... Actually, Greek yogurt is different from regular yogurt. The Greek style has had much of the whey (liquid part) drained out, so the yogurt is firmer and has more protein content. Look at the nutrition labels and compare the Greek and the regular; Greek will have about twice as much protein.

This is why my husband moved us a thousand miles away from family. *sigh*

I liked the original and was prepared to like ST Next Generation, but after they had hyped the new villain race that was supposed to be bigger and badder than the Klingons and unveiled the Ferengi, of all things! Well, that's where they lost me. Permanently.

All I can think is pray about it.

I'm quiverfull myself, and what the OP described is something I don't even recognize. Quiverfull is simply trusting the LORD to open or close the womb as He sees fit, acknowledging that He knows the future and I don't. Simple as that.

Didn't we fight a war, like, a century and a half ago over whether states have the right to secede? Pretty sure the outcome of that was NO.

I am hard of hearing, so I very much prefer my kids text me rather than call me.

I strongly suspect the teenage girl was NOT flirting with the customer, but was smiling and being polite to him, as a member of any waitstaff is expect to act.

Wow!

(And to Bopeep: yep, that's me! The math fanatic!)

Well... My score was... ...100% (Should I duck?)

'Drone spearing' - I love it!

Another thing to keep in mind: Elisha was told that if he saw Elijah being taken from him (up to heaven in a whirlwind), Elisha's request to have double the LORD's anointing that Elijah had had would be granted. And he did in fact see this. So in Scripture it is recorded that Elijah once raised someone from the dead. Elisha during his lifetime also raised one person from the dead, and here his bones raise a second person from the dead. It's fulfillment of prophecy, you see.

It's very simple: Jesus is the Son of God; this is a foundational statement of Christianity. Islam, however, states that Allah has no son, that it is blasphemy to say that Allah has a son. Therefore, how can God the Father of Christianity and Allah of Islam be one and the same? They cannot. It's as simple as that. (By the way, I think C S Lewis was amazingly prescient in his final Narnia book, The Last Battle, in which the great Lion Aslan was conflated with Tash, the demonic god of the Calormenes, into the horrifying false god Tashlan. We are seeing this come true in our lifetime.)

I never understood mail-ordering things when I could just go right to the store, buy them, and have them right away instead of waiting for the items to be sent to me. So buying things from the internet has no appeal to me either. I only order a thing if I can't find it at all locally - and believe me, I will search for it locally for a loooong time before I'll ever order it online. Brick-and-mortar stores must love me.

I have one kid that, when we go to Taco Bell, she'll grab over a dozen of the little sauce packets - and then use them ALL on her one or two burritos! *bleah!*

Oh but the nightmare part was that once he found the library and had stacks and stacks and stacks of books to read, he broke his glasses and couldn't see! Edited to add: Ha! And then I took the quiz and my scariest episode was none other than the one we're talking about here, Time Enough at Last!

There aren't signatures anymore? *sigh* I liked mine.

What? No Bernie Sanders??
