He decides so even though we don't believe another person's belief is justified, only God can see that person's heart and truly judge him/her. Dealing with Marriage Cynicism11 Jan 2010 11:54 PM Thank for this , we need more of this type of comment out in the media. Two of my children have lovely "partners" (and I detest that word!) but they are not married. Why bother? they say. But I stillhave difficulty with the whole concept. It just isn't right. My pastor's own daughter is in a de facto relationship, she tells me it doesn't say anywhere in the Bible, that one has to be married. But I still don't get it. Marriage creates a boundary, a safe place where each can know they are cared for and loved, and you can't just walk out the door! Pray and Wait for God's Answer01 Oct 2009 02:17 AM Hi Dale, this is another verse that speaks volumes for me. Sometimes we can feel uncomfortable in our roles, but if it can mean one more person can come to know the wonder of the love of Jesus in their life, it is worth it! And we will not know a lot of the time in this life, what that one experience has done for another. Is it Time to Make Friends?04 Apr 2008 05:52 PM Ah Dale, Are you speaking just to me? I feel there must be something wrong with me, as I seem to be the only one looking for friendship. I am busy with work, and church activities- I am the chief planner for our ladies nights that are so well received by all the communtiy, but no one seems to think I might want someone to call me, or phone to see how I am. Thanks for your thoughts on the situation. Perhaps it is God's way of telling me He is all I need, He is the one true friend I need..... How to Make a Friend31 Mar 2008 09:23 PM This is something I struggle with Dale, turning "acquaintances" into "friends". I look forward to the second in this series. I also struggle to open up to them, as so often I find my words, "secrets" come back via another person. I do agree about friendships developed in bible study groups. They seem to develop into deep relationships; is this what God wants fromus??? Witnessing to Family26 Jul 2007 04:17 PM It is hard to witness to family- a relative does not believe in the resurrection, he can believe in the person of Jesus but not that he rose from the dead. Thank you for this message, I will continue to confess that Jesus is Lord in spite of the likelihood of ridicule. |
