I hope and pray for you that you will have all your questions answered and make some wonderful friends in the process.

I share a passion with music also. Our passions and desires are given to us by God...for His pleasure!

I Praise God that you are here and desiring to build a relationship with Him...He has given you that desire as well.

Hello Tammy,and welcome!
How are you? I have always wanted to be a DJ. Especially in my "before Christ days",
but God had different plans for me thats for sure. I am a artist and muralist and I love
it. I was always in to the arts and music. I can play the drums and I played in a worship band
once. But I am where God wants me right now and that is where ai should stay. God will help you and
lead you as to where He wants you to go and what to do. Trust me, I know. I have only been a Christian
since 2002, but I went from a 86 lb anorexic,escort, to a wife,mother,working in a church
helping with childrens ministry and I paint for the Lord. Go figure? Im no gem, but God CAN change anyone at anytime. I cannot do it without Him. and if I do, down the road, I know I really "screwed up BIG time"!! Honey, I love oyu already. I can tell you want to know soo much. Well, that is sooo good!!!! That is a definate sign of a hungry Chrsitian!! I was starved for hope, and well, I have one. Life isnt perfect and it will NEVER be. You will still see crap goin on in your life, but you now have the strength to go through it.


This is Paige, another moderator here on TheNet, and Im very blessed to have you join our community of believers, as we grow in the love and wisdom of our Lord .
Its soo neat to meet new friends here from all around the world . You will find TheNet a safe place to get to know other believers and share your love and life in Christ.

I really like it here because its a great online source of Christian information,and fellowship.
When I find it hard to get out of the house or hard to get to church, I get online and get "filled" with His word and all the other believers and thier prayers. Its soo good to know that when Im hurting there are others that are too and in need of the same love and support I do from the Lord. Praise God for His work on the Cross!!! We are all one body now and can work together to heal and help other members.

Also, Id like to invite you to come over and visit us in the Womens Group where women from all ages and all walks of life come to encourage and be encouraged to help, and be helped, to share thier wisdom with other women , and get prayer that we all need as women to continue in our faith and the path God has set before us all.

I hope to "see" you often and I would love to get to know you more as we walk this faith.
Im your friend, and if I can help or answer any questions for you, Im here.
God Bless you, Tammy! I cant wait to get to know you more.

Hello Tammy,
I would be honored if you would be my friend. You have come to the right place. The best source is of course the Bible. You can if you are ready, start reading the Greatest Book ever written. There is a group here just for that reason. We are all here to help. Just ask.
May God Bless you

FOR I, THE LORD YOUR GOD, WILL HOLD YOUR RIGHT
HAND, SAYING TO YOU, "FEAR NOT, I WILL HELP
YOU."
( ISAIAH 41:13 *NKJV )
We often face troubling times in our lives that
cause us to worry, and lose sleep. As a child of God you
have Him at your side, holding your hand, and guiding
your pathway through those times. For, THE LORD IS
GOOD, A STRONGHOLD IN THE DAY OF TROUBLE;
AND HE KNOWS THOSE WHO TRUST IN HIM.
( NAHUM 1:7 )
He will never abandon HIS Children, throughout
their entire lives. For He is always with us no matter
what we may face, as He further promised: WHEN YOU
PASS THROUGH THE WATERS, I WILL BE WITH YOU;
AND THROUGH THE RIVERS,* THEY SHALL NOT
OVERFLOW YOU. WHEN YOU WALK THROUGH THE
FIRE,* YOU SHALL NOT BE BURNED, NOR SHALL
THE FLAME SCORCH YOU. ( ISAIAH 43:2 )
[*Rivers and *Fire in the verse represent difficulties in our
lives]
Therefore, FEAR NOT, FOR I AM WITH YOU; BE NOT
DISMAYED, FOR I AM YOUR GOD. I WILL
STRENGTHEN YOU, YES, I WILL HELP YOU, I WILL
UPHOLD YOU WITH MY RIGHTEOUS RIGHT HAND.
( ISAIAH 41:10 )
So the next time you face troubling times, do as Jesus
said: "LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED; YOU
BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME." (JOHN 14:1)
Then WHEN YOU LIE DOWN, YOU WILL NOT BE
AFRAID; YES, YOU WILL LIE DOWN AND YOUR
SLEEP WILL BE SWEET. ( PROVERBS 3:24 )
Now have a great day walking hand and hand with God,
friend! Amen.
