Another one that really encouraged me through dumpy times was this verse:
'' The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit. Pslam 34: 17-18

What are some scriptural things you've heard--direct quotes fro the Word, or words that were totally based on scripture--you've herad from others when you were in the middle of a trial, that really refreshed you?
I have more than one scripture that has been encouraging to me with or without trials. Here`s ...

neveah7x7, My heart goes out to you. I understand how damaging this can be to you and your marriage. In your previous blog you said you felt like your husband had cheated on you. I wanted to share a scripture with you.
Jesus said, ''You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks ...

Death is so hard. Remember I said when I was little I thought prayers were answered as I saw fit? Well the death of my earthly Dad is what shook my faith & ultimately lead me back to it w/an even ...

pooh girl: Nadine30: pooh girl: Nadine30: How much should someone pray anyways? I know it should be from your heart. Pray without ceasing ideally.

I pray throughout the day. I talk to God a lot. I kind of think I need to do better on a more formal prayer time though. I know I need to do better on giving Him time in my day. Such as prayer & study of His Word.
As a little girl when I first became saved the first verse I memorized was If you ...

There are the questions about committement that you and he both need to ask, that I didn't read you having asked:
''To exactly what are you both willing to be committed (specifically, point by point)''?
''On what are you both willing to base the power that commitment?''
''What are you both (individually) hoping for as ...

Its really time for Christians to step up and stop sinning. Until Christikans stop sinning things will not turn around.
I agree, however, christians are always going to be sinners, until they get to heaven. Are you talking about ''habitual sin'' or just sin in general? (IE: you see a pretty lady ...

Formerlyalpha,
This article is good information. Thanks for sharing. In your title you put for men only... now do you mean that this thread is for ''men only'' to respond, etc.. or do you mean for men only as in this article is speaking to ''men only''? If you meant that you only wanted men only to ...

See that's where it gets all fuzzy. We are committed and exclusive and all of that to each other. It just seems his problem comes from the actual words/titles of ''boyfriend/girlfriend''. He's fine with using it about me to other people, but to say it to me seems like a huge milestone for him... like a huge ...

I`m sorry you are going through what you are going through Gabby...thats a shame that people mistreat those especially in the body of Christ. I have too often wondered how many of us in our congregation are going through so much stuff in their lives. Atleast I know I`m not the only one, and I`m in good company. ...

Here are some misconceptions on prayer:
1. It`s boring z-z-z-z-z-z
2. It`s for the ''ultra'' spiritual
3. God doesn`t always answer
4. My prayers don`t really make a difference so why bother?
Results of prayerlessness:
-- we have more ''world'' in our thoughts
-- We feel further away from God
-- We have less of God in our ...

Cherina, I'm going to print those out...thank you SO much for sharing your thoughts with me.

Also making a house a home is that the wise women builds her house, but the foolish one tears hers down.
''To build'' means, literally, to make and to set up a house. This word not only is the structure and upkeep of the home, but also to the family itself. A home is not only a place; its also people.
The wise women diligently and purposefully ...

Just to add, fathers do make a huge difference. Happy father`s day to all the fathers out there. :)

I think it`s a marvelous idea. Speaking of fathers, I will be fixing my h`s favorite meal and desert on father`s day, the kids will be writing him a meaningful note/card to show how much they appreciate their father, and we will give mine and h`s father a nice card, and perhaps invite them to dinner with us.

I am really happy for you. That is great that you and your h are now on the same page. Not only will you be glad to be home, but so will your children. Your h will be too. It`s amazing how you will be less exhausted, and have more time to clean, cook, go to the store, etc. without feeling like you have no time to take a ...

This is my question ...

That would be pretty frusterating to have to live with a man that is that insecure. It sounds like you really want him to trust you and you don`t know what to do. If he really does love you and just won`t express that, it may be because he doesn`t really know how. I can see your frusteration through this. It sounds ...

Hey Jane,
I don`t think you are over reacting either. I will be praying for you. I hope your h is keeping his nose clean. He sounds defensive. You have a right to hold him accountible...especially since that was the original agreement from his history. ...
