Hi still trying to figure out all these pings, I'm reading them, posting to some of them, trying to thank everyone for their warm welcome. One day I'll get it right!! Thanks
To: The Mayor
you didn't ask me specifically but I will respond. I suggest you meet with him for lunch. Write out a letter spelling all out & talk with him & tell him all that is in letter & do approach it as a Christian etc. approach it as "I am not sure you know".. maybe he did..
sometimes Rus we are confronted with situations in our life & we make wrong choices.. we deep down know it, but when a bro/sister point it out to us it can be a mirage of guilt, realization of you can't separate life/faith etc & being called on it.
If he is a nominal Christian rather than practicing Christian there is a difference to as we all know. An intellectual belief & a life directing soul belief are two different things.
I am shocked by the number of people I know who are "professed" Christians but are Rats none the less... They see no conflict.
sigh.
Keep us posted

WHAT were you doing up that late? Didn't anybody tell you that Freeping is addictive? Bet they didn't tell you that you would be sitting up all hours of the night, did they? Well, let me add my welcome (and you don't have to reply) to FR and the Finest. I assume you have already met my Sistahs.
I'm off to see the Wizard. God bless.

Why Me?
One of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God. Luke 17:15
|
A few years ago, an unkempt, poorly adjusted youth named Tim (not his real name) was converted to Christ in an evangelistic crusade. Several days later, still unkempt but bathed in the love of Christ, he was sent to my home so that I could help him find a good church. And so it was that he began attending with me.
Though Tim needed and received much loving help in personal grooming and basic social graces, one characteristic has remained unchangedhis untamed love for his Savior.
One Sunday after church Tim rushed to my side, looking somewhat perplexed. He exclaimed, "Why me? I keep asking myself, why me?" Oh, no, I thought, he's become another complaining Christian. Then with arms outstretched, he went on to say, "Out of all the people in the world who are greater and smarter than I am, why did God choose me?" With that he joyfully clapped his hands.
Over the years I've heard many Christians, including myself, ask "Why me?" during tough times. But Tim is the first one I've heard ask that question when talking about God's blessings. Many were converted the same night as Tim, but I wonder how many among them have humbly asked, "Why me?" May we ask it often. Joanie Yoder
I know not why God's wondrous grace
To me He hath made known;
Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love
Redeemed me for His own. Whittle
Gratitude should be a continuous attitude.
