"The Lord within her is righteous. He does no wrong.... every new day he does not fail."
                        Zephaniah 3:5
I drank those words like tonic as I sat before the God I love---and trust---and wept. My feelings were hurt. Not because God was wrong but because my feelings are at times such ( Read more... )

Your timing scares the heck out of me, it seems whenever I've had a discussion about something, or heard something, you seem to post it the next day in the form of these sections from the book. It's rather eerie, could you stop doing that :)

My pastor was just discussing this yesterday morning, he was teaching Psalm 73, and brought up the exact same points.

Thanks again for posting these, they really make my day!

Lol. It's probably God. Seriously. I read this section of the book days ago and was too lazy to post it until today ;D

That is so freaking awesome!! I've had that happen to me multiple times. Like my pastor would discuss something in church that I had been questioning that whole week. It always feels like God is answering my questions through others when that happens. Or when things I have recently discussed are repeated by other people or televangelists. It's God further imprinting the point in my heart.

I am so happy to have you here and reading these. Even happier that it's helping me reach out to others :) So I not only benefit from it firsthand but also through you. You thank me for posting and I thank for reading.



P.S. I added you to my flist so you can also see the entries that I lock on occasion ;)

Thanks for the add, I feel special :)

I'm sure I should get the book sometime, but the way you're going, I'm sure I'll have read the whole thing...

It's so easy to blame someone. Yet it's so hard to take the blame yourself. That's general. I mean, that's how I used to think. No, no no. That's not what I mean. I mean, it's a lesson I've already learned. But I know so many people still are struggling with it.

I don't blame other people anymore. Ocasionally my parents. But I have parents-issues. Still have to work on that.

Sorry I keep commenting on your pit-entries with my own problems! Though I think you don't mind.
