  1. Kross, Being in a POSITION of authority does not stop a person from being a servant to all. God has given us talents and gifts which are to be used for his glory in all walks of life and positions. There is nothing against God in being in leadership. David was a KING. Luke was a Doctor. Peter was a Fisherman. Their walks of life did not stop them from loving God and serving HIM.
  2. The LORD! THe LORD! Look to HIM! He is that FRIEND who sticks closer than a brother. No one is to take his place in our hearts. He is number ONE and ALL! When we give Him all of our heart then we love others in fullness.
  3. I am so sorry about what happened to you and your daughter. Things such as what you have been through effect us deeply. God's healing touch will deliver you more and more as time goes by and you experience his faithfulness. But dear Sister, you do not have to figure out those verses. The Word is not a mental exercise. As you meditate and think and ponder on the Word, the Holy Spirit will make it real to you. It is up to Him to enliven the Word and make it produce fruit in you. All you have to do is read it, believe it, and pray over it. Tell the LORD you want to be this person who lives in love and not fear and that you are depending upon Him and not yourself. God has provided CHRIST to be your very life. Christ will live his love through you. And remember that David himself said, "When I am afraid".......... As you "feel" fear wanting to overwhelm you, simply pray to your LORD in your heart. Tell him you are trusting in him NO MATTER how you feel. That is all you have to do. Then just go on. Watch him come through for you. Life is not easy. But I can tell you that every time you move on, even though you fear, and decide to deliberately trust in the LORD,no matter the emotions involved, that you are being pleasing in God's sight. And what else do we want but to please the LORD? Thinking of you. Many blessings......
  4. furry tongue.......yeast overrun. Needs to be taken care of!
  5. Is it possible that there are good points to both sides? Indeed we are to be praying and seeking the LORD concerning all issues. We must commit or turn over to Him all things, trust in Him and then He will act. However, He often acts through his people. According to scripture a nation mourns when it has evil leadership. It makes a difference when godly men and women are in leadership positions for they are in the places of authority to bring blessing of all kinds to people. It makes a difference when godly people are in working places reaching out in kindness towards all they meet. We are the light in this world. We are Christ's body. May God cause us to see how important each grain of salt is in this world. Oh the importance of being a Christian neighbor! Praying for a neighborhood. Reaching out to the persons of a neighborhood. Nothing takes the place of prayer and seeking the LORD. But if anyone ever walked this earth serving people it was our Lord. May we integrate both in our lives. We do not have to be entertaining the spirit of this world to be making a difference in it.
  6. Because it is pleasing to God I have begun consistently remembering Israel in prayer. And thank you for reminding me yet again to persistently call upon the Lord for Israel! May the LORD indeed rise up to protect his chosen people. May families be strengthened and protected from the ways of wicked men. May the Holy Spirit blanket his people with his protection and love. We trust in HIm with all our hearts!
  7. It is rather difficult to put all parents in the same boat! There are plenty of parents who have tried everything they know to do and yet the child is out of control. And until you have seen, as I have, this age child out of control, you really cannot imagine how hard it is to bring them under control. Also I think it very important to remember the OTHER people involved. There are innocent children all about who are harmed by these type children. Those who are being indangered by out of control children are as important as the one causing the damage! The one causing the rucus needs to be stopped as quickly as possible. The taser works and causes little or no damage.
  8. I wanted to post that transdermal magnesium chloride is fantastic for helping muscle pain and spasms. You can search the name of mark sircus with transdermal magnesium chloride and find sites to read . I have been using for a couple of months now and do not want to do without it!
  9. Simply trust God to give you his thoughts and wisdom. Just simple trust. Tell him that you are trusting him with all of yourself and that you know he is coming through for you. Then carefully and deliberately begin making decisions. As you do so just keep trusting God to get through to you. HE is ever faithful. He will give you his thoughts and leadership. You do not need anything spectacular. You need simple faith. Read the Word. Pray. TRUST. He will never let you down.
  10. May the LORD strengthen you. May you feel his love and concern. Lean upon Him. Keep telling Him that you are leaning upon HIM. He knows that you cannot do it by yourself. Lean heavily upon Jesus. Romans 7 tells us that there is a law of sin within our members. Romans 8 tells that we are set FREE from that law of sin by the Spirit of Life in CHrist Jesus. If you will meditate on the truth of that statement and the power of Christ in you and for you, breakthroughs will happen for you. No doubt. Whatever you do, don't give up! We have heaven waiting on us. Bright future ahead!
  11. Included in the fear of God is the deep realization that God will do what He says he will do. He never changes. He is himself. Therefore we must and do change to suit him. This understanding brings wisdom because it motivates the child of God unto obedience even when it goes against the natural grain. As we obey God we move in wisdom and humility which open the door to many blessings.
  12. No doubt that in that culture family will be more than happy to take care of the children.
  13. When I find it difficult to draw aside for a private time with the LORD I have learned that if I will start praying aloud while I am working that I will eventually lay down what I am doing and draw aside. It is the getting started that can be so difficult. We are in a battle when it comes to seeking after the LORD and it is not always so easy to just automatically win. But we do!
  14. Let it go! Stop going over and over it in your thoughts. We all make many mistakes. Just come here and make new friends here. It will work out. And you have more control than you know. A part of the fruit of the Spirit is self control. The Holy Spirit can produce fruit rather you have a mood disorder or not. Instead of concentrating on what has happened that makes you feel so low, on purpose begin to think on something else! You will be so surprised at how much it will make a difference. Think about how good it feels to take a walk. Think about a favorite anything! Think about what is good in your life. Just simply TAKE CONTROL of your mind. It is yours. It does not belong to anyone else. Help yourself all you can. You will be amazed at how the Holy Spirit will help you as you attempt to control your thinking. And you will FEEL better! God really does turn all things to our good if we are called according to his purpose. Hang in there and watch it all get better............
