I've been thinking.....

Angel,

Great post! You said so much of what I've been feeling lately. I have been reading these boards for almost a year now and this is only my second post. I'm a little shy and also not quite sure how to get around in this posting stuff. Would love to put a smiley here but not quite sure how to do it. LOL. Anyway, not to get off subject here, I have learned so much from reading these posts. And there are so many wonderful people here, I feel like they are family even though I don't haven't actualy "talked" to any of them. To see so many of these posts getting out of hand with hurt feelings and even people leaving just breaks my heart. And I'm sure it's breaking our Lord's heart too. I'm reading a book by Richard J. Foster, ( Celebration of Discipline) and was reading today about submission, and some of the points really hit home today and I thought "maybe I'll start a topic on it" and then thought "What if it goes like all the others" and decided not to. Then I came across your post and had to reply.

I want all of you wonderful people out there to know that there are some people out here who may not post but do read and learn from you and love you. To see threads that turn hurtful to each other. hurts us too. Sorry I rambled on, but just felt I had to say this.

I love you all. I'll go back into lurking mode now. Would place a smiley here if I knew how. lol

God Bless you All

Sue

Thank you Sue, for coming out of lurking mode with that reminder. Sometimes I think we forget that others read our words, people we may not know at all.

Great thread Angel.

Thanks Sue for joining us! We would love to hear from you more. If you want a smiley in the body of the text, to your left of you response you should see a box called clickable smiles and see a bunch of cute little smiles. Just click on it and a formula for it will appear, but when you submit your post it will show up!

Hello refugepsa91, Welcome to Worthy Boards! Or Welcome back I should say...

We're all vessels struggling to be made perfect. All of us need to pray for one another and let ourselves be molded into what the Lord has purposed us for.

>>> This vessel has a few cracks in it, but the POTTER is mending them, someday I'll be flawless!<<<

Blessings~

Sometimes I think we forget that others read our words, people we may not know at all.

This is why I love the internet. You can go to any Forum and spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ(If it is allowed) and anyone can read it. I was on a video game forum and a topic was created. It was called,"Does God Exist." Everyone that was posting appeard to be atheist, and they where really bashing God. In fact most of them did not know how Jesus died, well thats is what they asked me anyway. So after seeing all the God bashing I decided to stand up for The Lord, and I was the only one at first. Later more Christians started posting, and we all shared the gospel with everyone. We did get some rather harsh comments, but that did not matter. Anway, I do not know if any of them accepted Jesus or not, the ones posting did not sound like they really cared, but you never know. Also, anyone could have read it as well. They could have been lurking and maybe accepted Jesus just by reading it and not replying.

Personally, I think we Christians need to spread the Gospel over the internet via message boards/fourms(if you know how). Because anyone with internet access can read these posts if they stumble across them. The internet is a fantastic tool for Christ. And besides, there is a lot of "bad stuff" on the internet, and I think we need to show the world the "good stuff".

Anyway, sorry to ramble on. I just felt moved to post this.

In Christ's Love,

J.C.
