Hello Zanny, I've been a Follower of Jesus for a long time also, and I have found that God wants me to serve right wehre I am. I only need to be available and do what is at hand to do......and to me that is God's will for me. Ash......

I think one needs to be very careful when they say that feelings is the determiner if God or satan is speaking. Feelings are the number one place that Satan works with....remember Eve. Satan will not make us feel bad he will make us feel good, he is the great impostor,he comes as an angel of light. Thru the Bible God has spoken in Christ so completly revealing Himself, that there is nothing further to say.........In Christ.. God has spoken with complete clarity, there are no differing degrees like in the days of old. The word of God in our Bible is our discerner of truth in all things.....Jesus said to injest His word, when we take in the word....we take in the spirit of truth.........so then when we hear something that is not truth.......we know it is a lie.....for we have tasted the spirit of truth.

Hello I"m new here, so i'm not to sure how this board works yet, but I'm giving it a try. I've studied Job for a while and I find it a very interesting book also. Throughout this story of Job....He loses all his children, his wealth and most of his friends.....gets disrespected from his wife..... this part I've really studied could not figure out why God would allow this. And one day it came to me, None of these things were ever Job's or God's, they were of the ruler of this world, Satan. When it comes to all the earthly things, and people, all is not of God, all are lost as God sees it, none are worth anything BUT man's soul, which God doesn't own either, until man gives God his soul. In this writing all that satan says is a lie.....for he is the father of lies........ As for his 3 friends I think they are a type and shadow of the prevelant religions of this world. They all assumed they knew God's mind....and they were all wrong......only Job and his friend Elihu. Thanks for letting me comment Ash
