  1. Hello biblebunny, I've been reading your situation but you know what? Uncomfortable feelings actually indicate you’re on the right path. Really a comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there. And I can see the pain in your words. I remember a time years ago when I was married and I had this loving christian Aunt that told me no, this guy wasn't for me but I was young and I thought if it didnt work out, the divorce would take care of it. (Boy, was i wrong) It would of saved me all the heartache and lifes issues and with having a child as well, and working, etc., had I listen to my Aunt and not married. Looking back, God had His hand in it, growing me through the pain and at the same time i learned alot about having a husband, seeing life thru both sets of eyes. Even though we weren't seeing the same dreams and hopes in life. I thought how did I not see this coming? A life lesson. I had alot to learn. I truly believe it was part of my path in life. The often-quoted phrase about when you are comfortable with life, you have ceased to grow as an individual. Therefore, experiencing uncomfortable feelings is actually a sign that you are going through a period of change, and in your case a heartbreak on top of it all. I think you already know from mentioning earlier in your post...that God was revealing this guys true nature. An eye-opener. Count this as a blessing in disguise. I'm sure with all of the betrayals you felt, was just tip of the iceberg of what might lay ahead that you had to encounter, such dishonesty and disrespect. You are the only person who can be held accountable for the life you choose to lead. If you want to turn your dreams into a reality, it is you who will have to take control and make it happen. The fear only grows when you reach the inevitable conclusion that you have no choice but to enact change if you are to quell the discontent that is brewing in your heart. Enjoy the ability to be with yourself. Get creative. Take classes and pick up a hobby that enriches your soul. Another person is not going to cure you from loneliness. It might even exaggerate those emotions. You have to learn to entertain yourself and enjoy the childlike moments that are fragments of your wholeness. Hope this helps some. God Bless you, and praying for you. God is there with you, always. desi
  2. Yes, thank you, very helpful. I grow my own organic vegetables, have for years. I have the worse time with cabbage worms.
  3. I love to look at garden art and things created to make ones gardening more useful or easier. I have made a few things in my garden.
  4. I don't think you can get rid of it, part of the feature with being on phone.
  5. I think it's fine to talk to a guy with hi and how's it going. Maybe it's a way for you to see if you receive a good vibe or friendly eye contact. It's a start.
  6. Hello Marilyn and thank you for your kind words, Yes my interviews went well (i felt very blessed to receive 2 interviews) just waiting for the outcome. I have mixed emotions as each day passes with excitement to now feeling perplexed..lol. Seasons in life never stay same, things change, people change, even jobs change. As for my grandson, he has 2 grandma's, and they (daughter & grandson) had to move back in with me at my house for a bit, and I see him more than ever. He needs stability with a home, and family. She has him in a catholic private school. His daddy isn't much in his life. He is too busy making another family. And life for all them will be even harder. The choices they make affects us all. And we are to help carry the burdens and as I look back and see things and I can't always voice my opinion with what I see. I am watching for God's hand in it all. Just doing my part and being helpful.
  7. Thank you, and I do see the key word is "wait". I think one of the things God keeps bringing up is His timing. Feeling a bit off balance with work, with what God is showing me. And I do keep Him in with everything i feel. Most of all I am very grateful every day, with all He has done with my life. Just something there, can't seem to put my finger on it so to speak. Maybe, it's the excitement that's coming. I feel it, seeing with Eyes of faith, very much so.
  8. Hello All, Not sure how to start this off with. When I have been wrestling with something that seems to be such a big deal. Here soon (this week) i will soon find out if i get the job i applied for. I applied for 2 different jobs, both called me in for interviews at the same company that I work for. First off, I know TIME can be a big deal. It is a important to be places on time or anything pertaining to "time". My issue is I am waiting to hear back on 2 important job advancements. Both seem to be promising. Lets call the jobs A & B. And i thought I wanted job B. But there is a "time" issue, of going in later than i normally do. And i keep thinking maybe look at it in a different light. Then job A. Is early schedule for me which is my normal schedule with my job now. And I'm leaning towards the TIME. Why am I doing this? I am willing and wanting God to work things into my life. I really want job A, it seems the more I think about the time. I prayed and prayed. I asked God to give me which ever He chooses, or.... if neither, then shut the door on both. Waiting with anticipation...and excitement. However, feeling as if this TIME is such an issue with me. I am an early bird. 6am-3pm my normal time. I do garden in spring and I do help with 5 yr old grandson in evenings it varies on certain days thou. And working with a 9am-5pm, might stress me...or might enjoy it. Not sure. Any advice would be helpful. Thank you in advance. desi
  9. The best things in life are the results of being wounded. Wheat must be crushed before becoming bread, and incense must be burned by fire before its fragrance is set free. The earth must be broken with a sharp plow before being ready to receive the seed. And it is a broken heart that pleases God. Yes, the sweetest joys of life are the fruits of sorrow. Human nature seems to need suffering to make it fit to be a blessing to the world. I agree whole heartily with the statement, very refreshing. I think seeing that vision ahead is a great reminder to me and it takes me back to when I was a child and gave my life to God to become a Christian. He truly, has been in my life even with making some wrong choices along the way and things unraveling with lifes events, bumpy roads. I am 51 yrs old now..lol. I always go to God for everything and thank Him for everything, Always looking at it with ..what IS God trying to tell me. I need His direction in everything. Sometimes, I feel "my weaknesses" or even "brokeness" and that "light" is always, Always trying to shine thru me. For I know He loves me. At times the weight of the world can cause me to not be as comforting to others as I should be, those are the times I seek Him cause my spirit is hurting and not understanding why and it's because I'm getting too far away from God. Trying to do things all on my own. And God is right near me. I could go on and on in this thread but anyways not to steer off the subject but THIS thread really touched me. I found it a blessing to read and very thought provoking.
  10. You will be heartbroken if you Don't listen to the advice. Why rush into a live together relationship? I have experience from a marriage that was rushed and we moved away only to live in agony with unmet expectations on both. Before long it wasn't a marriage after 18 yrs. It was literally making me sick. The lies, the false sense of love that wasn't growing, the deeper in debt as a couple, a child, life began to take a toll on both of us early in the relationship and we were Married. Looking back, We just didn't give it time, We rushed and it fell apart. Enjoy your life now. And i know we want love and feel as if we can't live without this person but honestly the number one killer in a relationship is unmet expectations. Life is what you make of it. God will see you thru all of this in His time. Rushing into things just leads to heartbreak. I pray you heed to all the advice that was given to you. God Bless. desi
  11. hello Godslovesme, I am sorry to read that your going thru a difficult time with your marriage. Marriage is hard and it takes two people with God's help to make it. If I could point you in the right direction here and that would be...take care of you...work on you. Maybe this is where God is wanting you to have courage to pick up a new hobby or go back to school for something you enjoy. """ Life is all about growth """" Let God work on the marriage just give it to Him and then work on you. And trust me as time moves on and less time on worrying about marriage will give you a better perspective on life. praying for you. desi
  12. I tend to think people in heaven can't see us down here on earth. Maybe its when they think about us or send us butterflies in memory to let us know they are thinking of us could be true. Because if you think about heaven and sometimes when we look up in the sky its like some clouds can resemble a person's face or an animal, why is that? I think its almost like a glimpse of someone a reflection from heaven. For example. About 3 months ago I was looking up in the sky and seen a face...I thought whoa who is that? nobody I knew...he had a beard. No one has ever seen God so I ruled that out. I honestly just think it was a mere reflection of someone up in heaven and I happen to look up at that right time. I even took a picture of it and still have it. There are a lot of things in this world we just don't know. But I like questions like this cause we read other people's comments on it to shed light on something you might view the same or maybe nothing the same. Anyways, just my two cents on it.
  13. I will say great post and awesome song.... thank you brother goldeneagle for sharing, I just loved it all. You are so right on the part about the great news is that for us believers, "bad circumstances are only an illusion of a lack of security". Just from my own life so many times things may appear to be going really bad but keeping the faith and let God worry with the details. Hard to see the light at the end of tunnel at times so true but its there!! just need that trust. God bless you always, you shine your light with others. desi
