There is nothing, indeed, which God will not do for a man who dares to step out upon what seems to be the mist; though as he puts down his foot he finds a rock beneath him. --F. B. Meyer
I am not sure why I didn't get an email notification letting me know you wrote on my page. I just happened to see it. I am glad I did. If by chance you ever write me and I don't write back it may be I didn't see it or Im not online. I hope your difficulty lessons more and more each day. I noticed a few people who are normally fairly active in the forums have almost stopped. or completely stopped. The acquaintance I had told you about has a page here. Maybe you can look it up and read some of his writings. His name Ron Payne. I don't think its a private page so you should be able to find it. He has a poem/song on his page that I like reading too
I do hope you get better soon. I hope that through this time you grow closer and closer in love with the Lord. I am sure you have plenty of shoulders to lean on but even so. If you need mine just let me know. Big LOVE to you.... <3
I could have sworn I had written you back but I don't see it. How are you? I hope you are doing great. Did you get to spend time with your family during the July 4th weekend? AAG seems to have been fairly quiet lately. Maybe most is resting from the weekend. I am the same oh same oh. I recently just found out a dear online acquaintance has passed on. Its so sad but at the same time I do believe he is resting in Jesus now. I sure wish you had met him. He seemed to love all.. I am sure you would have loved him also. Love to you. I miss you.
Thank you for answering my question on the topic ,what must we believe to be saved, .. I will copy and paste it to read again for later. I hope you are having a great week. Makes my day when you tell me you love me much. :-D <3 . Love back to you.
I am curious as to what your take is on this topic? If you already responded to it I didn't see it. If you don't want to or just don't have time .. I understand.
Hey girl. We got here Monday afternoon. Tim had a cordless internet that you can take anywhere & use it all the time. I do have it. Haven't checked emails or anything but feel free to send me anything. I'll find it sooner or later.
I entreat you, give no place to despondency. This is a dangerous temptation—a refined, not a gross temptation of the adversary. Melancholy contracts and withers the heart, and renders it unfit to receive the impressions of grace. It magnifies and gives a false coloring to objects, and thus renders your burdens too heavy to bear. God’s designs regarding you, and His methods of bringing about these designs, are infinitely wise. --Madame Guyon
One of the most popular beliefs of the day is that God loves everybody, and the very fact that it is so popular with all classes ought to be enough to arouse the suspicions of those who are subject to the Word of Truth. God's love towards all His creatures is the favorite tenet of Universalists, Unitarians, Theosophists, Christian Scientists, Spiritualists, Russellites, etc. . . . So widely has this dogma been proclaimed, and so comforting it is to the heart which is at enmity with God, we have little hope of convincing many of there error. To tell the Christ-rejecter that God loves him is to cauterize his conscience as well as to afford him a sense of security in his sins. The fact is, the love of God is a truth for the saints only, and to present it to the enemies of God is to take the children's bread and to cast it to the dogs. http://www.sermonindex.net/modules/articles/index.php?view=article&aid=25762
1Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. 3For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.
C.S. Lewis said in Mere Christianity:
If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this. The Apostles themselves, who set on foot the conversion of the Roman Empire, the great men who built up the Middle Ages, the English Evangelicals who abolished the Slave Trade, all left their mark on Earth, precisely because their minds were occupied with Heaven. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this.
“This is what our age needs, not an easy-moving message, the sort of thing that makes the hearer feel all nice inside, but a message profoundly disturbing. We have been far too afraid of disturbing people, but the Holy Spirit will have nothing to do with a message or with a minister who is afraid of disturbing. You might as well expect a surgeon to give place to a quack who claims to be able to do the job with some sweet tasting drug, as expect the Holy Spirit to agree that the tragic plight of human souls today can be met by soft and easy words.
Calvary was anything but nice to look at, blood-soaked beams of wood, a bruised and bleeding body, not nice to look upon. But then Jesus was not dealing with a nice thing; He was dealing with the sin of the world, and that is what we are called upon to deal with today. Soft and easy words, soft-pedaling will never meet the need.”
"I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live: yet not I, but Christ lives in me; and the life I know live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me.” Galatians 2:20
"Please pray for God's people around the world! As in Europe, Christian faith is fading in America, while persecution is spreading in many other parts of the world. Countless Christians would rather face death than deny their beloved Lord!
We have come to a place in time where we measure the correctness of our plans simply by their seeming to contribute to our favorite aim. We estimate the soundness of our doctrine, not from its tendency to exalt and glorify God but entirely by the apparent facility with which it enables us to get sinners to turn from their ways. ~Horatius Bonar~

Spurgeon had it right when he said, “Truth seldom goes without a scratched face, for men love her not.”
Collossians 3:1-4
1Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. 3For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.
