The thing that drives me crazy is taking God out of everything. Recently they took another Holy Bible out of the heart of Houston due to the fact of religous freedoms.

God has shown me alot and I haven't feared as much as i thought I would.

Ben, I understand what you've seen.....But sitting here telling us God can fix everything..I get mad sometimes cause I can't fix my mom. No one will ever really know what a vibrant woman she was before the stroke.....and as for me I deal with alot of internal hurting not to the point of hurting myself but to the point of trying to kill myself....I use to know a friend that would cut herself...I wanted to go to the authorities but it wouldn't have been right.....We all have to work things out in our own time. People use to tell me when I was on the medicines that I didn't need it. To be honest the only thing they did do was make me feel like i was lying to myself. Admittly yes, No one really does listen to me here. But I am just trying to voice my opinion. The only time I see to intervene anymore is when someone is trying to kill thereself.......Believe it or not I got in my car one day and decided to run into something. It got time to do and I straightforward asked God if my life ment something more than this He would stop me not me or anything like that. For people like me, april, billy, and others....its not really by choice...it sometimes happens due to what happens in our lives. Your saying that you want to help me....In my mind if you've never been in my shoes or anything close to it....How can you help...How can you feel anything close to that. God gave me the courage to forgive myself for what happened with my mom it took a while yes but eventually I did....God does help but sometimes we need others help from doctors and such...Its not wrong but its not ususally what would be helping on our own free will. If I have offended you Ben I'm sorry this is just the way I feel. If you want to attack me for my views fine but its not a christian thing to do. GBY, Julie

Very noble calling and very proud of you too....GBY

The only channels I watch anymore due to the fact that it either has nudity or cussing. The food network, TLC and discovery.

I'm sorry if you think its the "mark." I have lived in Texas my whole life...They are doing this for security measures and your own being. If you want to live here and get all the benefits. This will be the only way...The other alternatives you have discussed will not "get you your pie and eat it too." Not trying to sound mean or anything...But Texas is a big place and alot of things we do by DL's here. It's just to protect you if anything such as a crime or anything bad were to happen.

To me He exists because of all the wonderful things that are in our life....How many steps it takes to actually make a perfect baby.....How we as humans are put together so carefully. Many things inside of our body if taken out or punctured in any way will kill us.

thanks Ted the only other thing I use is my MSN which now also allows for Yahoo.....and I really don't have alot of friends since moving back home....

I have no idea that's the reason why I leave it up to the big guy, God. Not my place to sit there and figure out that answer.

But how do we really know for sure? I mean yes to us things look old....But for God its just a blink and there it is.

Ben, You really don't understand the full story....When I was diagnosed with depression and before I came to God it made impossible. I don't take medicine anymore for it but it is very difficult on some days not to feel worthless. Compaines such as the one you suggested are at least trying to help people. Yes if there is misleading information the blood of the spilled person will be on them. Paxil the drug you suggested is the one my mom took along with many others to help with her mental problems. She then had a stroke I was 16. Your telling me God will just fix everything. I love my mom the way she was before, during and after. You don't see how badly it can mess up a person on the inside. God has helped some with the depression but there is still damage within me from the years of tormenting from my family when I was younger and my friends at school. Please don't sit here and try and tell me that you know better. Unless you have walked a mile in my shoes and life. Unfortunately i don't think you can understand. I have good days where I think I am worth something and other days where I'd rather kill myself than live another second longer. Until you fully understand what's it like living with something such as billy suggests you won't understand in the slightest.

Great Service George thank you so much!!!

Forgiveness of sin......boy do I fail at that everyday.....He's my Savior and Everlasting Life

i would but I'm living at home w/ parents and I'm fixing to start school so my only outlet is here

Unfortunately......People around here just go from church to church so they are basically dead churches here billy.

i agree church isn't for everyone.....but I at least come here and go to the chat and listen to the admins and moderators....Not exactly in a church with a steeple and listening to people talk about what new clothes they got or how well off their family is with money.

i agree with lady....There's been proof of dinosaurs with people....Did a big discussion on creation and dinosaurs with that. Believe fully in that

I believe that God is the only one who knows that answer and it would be wrong of us to speculate on who will or won't. It is hard for us to know exactly who cause some people put on an act. Or secretly might be a christian for fear of being made fun. It is hard to know for sure and definate who will or won't. I believe I will be in heaven when God wants me to be. Throughout my life I've could have probably been a cat with 9 lives or more at this rate. Not cause of my inability to protect myself just some of the situations call me to take risks. This is just my opinion though. For those that disagree that's fine I'm not here to say whose right or wrong. and from the last couple of comments it seems everybody wants to be right...
