In leaving an open door for comments; or others to take up a subject and run with it I hoped to avoid self centeredness. I had hoped my questioning would help me find some answers I hadn't considered as well as showing that I am human and don't have all the answers. There is always opportunity to respond to people's prayer requests which I could also focus on even exclusively instead.
I will leave this idea as well; in standing for the Lord one is in the minority and from personal experience recently can cost a friendship. There are some things we need to stand on and others that aren't as crucial. The Lord Himself through the Spirit should be the one who is bringing up situations; tugging on us and revealing through repeated situations what we must take a stand for. I think I should say that those on this site who take an opposing view aren't people we are seeing face to face and thus we need to be careful reading thoughts and intentions that may be contrary to what we think when someone has a different viewpoint. I say this for the sake of others who are struggling with health issues; family problems and other things that we have Agape love and compassion.
I have been through a lot and probably I have shared way too much over the past year in particular. I appreciate the support of those who have prayed for me. I am learning some things continuing on living with my parents and without those in my church praying for me as well and God's help I would have been toast by now. I am hoping people will share as was the case with one individual who was homeless that found a place shortly after I and another sister in Christ prayed he would find someplace to live. When prayers are answered please share it at this site.
I will conclude by saying my famous quote we are all going to be together forever so may as well start getting along now. If we are truly His that should be food for thought.
