hahaha....if they were opting for honesty they would only be able to say.... I'm... they can't be trusted, we don't know for sure where they are from, and they are not really here...its always in a letter as for the help part...you should be the one yelling help
I know how hard that is, but drawing close to GOD can sometimes help the person who is addicted overcome...it will ALWAYS help if they are serious in wanting it to, but too many are not and that can be very hard on those who love them as the suffering seems unbearable and its hard to comprehend the reason anyone would put themselves through so much for so little. GOD bless
I would reccommend habitat for humanity they help people who are helping themselves get a home its definately worth a try If your family, is in need of decent, affordable housing, please contact the Habitat for Humanity affiliate serving your area.
and you know what, thats just great!!! its what a lot of people come here for ...we all need love and acceptance and encouragement it makes us feel that someone cares and that GOD cares HE can use us to help in that way and when we help others HE is blessed and so are we thank you :) may GOD bless you and yours richly
I am sure you don't pull out "problem" teeth for 30 dollars each, do you? I can't get anyone to pull my bad ones without paying 650 per tooth so I just keep them and hope I will lose them a piece at a time, and then I will get dentures, but really I am asking GOD to replace my teeth with new ones since that would be the best miracle even better than miracle money to get rid of the bad ones or money to fix all my teeth...a miracles a miracle no matter how it is accomplished :) never-the-less your prices are exceptionally low :)
Grandma, some ninety plus years, sat feebly on the patio bench.
She didn't move, just sat with her head down staring at her hands. When I sat down beside her she didn't acknowledge my presence and the longer I sat I wondered if she was OK. Finally, not really wanting to disturb her but wanting to check on her
at the same time, I asked her if she was OK. She raised her head
and looked at me and smiled. 'Yes, I'm fine, thank you for asking,' she said in a clear voice strong.
'I didn't mean to disturb you, grandma, but you were just sitting here staring at your hands and I wanted to make sure you were OK,' I explained to her.
'Have you ever looked at your hands,' she asked. 'I mean really looked at your hands?' I slowly opened my hands and stared down at them. I turned them over, palms up and then palms down. No, I guess I had never really looked at my hands as I tried to figure out the point she was making.
Grandma smiled and related this story:
'Stop and think for a moment about the hands you have, how they have served you well throughout your years.
These hands, though wrinkled shriveled and weak have been the
tools I have used all my life to reach out and grab and embrace life.
'They braced and caught my fall when as a toddler I crashed upon the floor. They put food in my mouth and clothes on my back.
As a child, my mother taught me to fold them in prayer. They tied my shoes and pulled on my boots.
They held my husband and wiped my tears when he went off to war.
'They have been dirty, scraped and raw, swollen and bent.
They were uneasy and clumsy when I tried to hold my newborn son.
Decorated with my wedding band they showed the world that I was married and loved someone special.
They wrote my letters to him and trembled
and shook when I buried my parents and spouse. 'They have held my children and grandchildren, consoled neighbors, and shook in fists of anger when I didn't understand.
They have covered my face, combed my hair, and washed and cleansed the rest of my body. They have been sticky and wet, bent and broken, dried and raw.
And to this day when not much of anything else of me
works real well these hands hold me up, lay me down, and again continue to fold in prayer.
'These hands are the mark of where I've been and the ruggedness of life.
But more importantly it will be these hands that God will reach out and take when he leads me home...
And with my hands He will lift me to His side and there I will use these hands to touch the face of Christ.'
I will never look at my hands the same again.
But I remember God reached out and took
my grandma's hands and led her home.
When my hands are hurt or sore or when I stroke the face of my children and husband I think of grandma.
I know she has been stroked and caressed and held by the hands of God.
I, too, want to touch the face of God and feel His hands upon my face.
When you receive this, say a prayer for the person who sent it to you, and watch God's answer to prayer work in your life. Let's continue praying for one another.
Passing this on to anyone you consider a friend will bless you both.
Passing this on to one not yet considered a friend is something Christ would do.
welcome aboard always happy to read scripture because the Bible says it will not return void...and there is nothing better than good fruit and thats what the Bible produces good fruit. GOD bless
yes you can freeze your loan but I am not sure about grants from the gov't for masters courses I don't think they do that they only offer them for undergrad courses but there are tons of scholarships out there you should look into them...GOD bless hope all works out for you keep on tryin :)
thats very true, Jesus was killed, and killed by HIS own people, but NOT because HE came to rule at that time, HE came to sacrifice HIS life for the sins of man, and to reconnect sinful man with a perfect, sinless GOD in the only way it could be accomplished in GODS economy, a free gift, sent because of GODS love for us, offered to whosoever will, HE covered our sin, so GOD could relate to us through HIM and only HIM.. JOHN 14:6 HE knew what HE came for, and what was going to happen... thats the heart of the Christian faith.... Jesus crucified, and gloriously ressurrected to rule and reign. I look forward to HIS soon return.
GODs sovereign rule was rejected way back in Davids time, when HIS chosen nation wanted a King, like all the other nations around them, and they chose Saul, rejecting GODS rule, but GOD allowed it, and when Saul would not listen to GOD, GOD chose David. Its ancient history, and here we are, still rejecting GOD, and GODS man for the job. What do I really think about it all, well.....I would never vote for Obama...never, he is scary, have you read his book? he thinks that the Declaration of Independance is out-moded, this document declares that all men are created equal, and are endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights...Obama says that it means we are born into this world free, and arrive with a bundle of rights that can't be taken away by any person or state without just cause...hmmm, wonder what just cause would take away our rights? being old? disabled? he already thinks that the unborn have no rights, and an infant that survives an abortion should NOT be protected.... this country has lost a great deal of respect for life because its value has been diminished and the dollar has become more important...what I am writing is all too true... so whos next? the old, or the disabled? as for Mccain, I am not enthralled with him either, but for me, he is the lesser of two evils. I have this magnetic sign on my car....see below
"They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not (against me you've appointed unholy people to lead my nation): of their silver and their gold have they made them idols (your money was more important to you than your moral beliefs), that they may be cut off. (Cut off from what? -- From God's protection) (When we appoint non-Christians to lead us we literally bring about our own destruction) Hosea 8:4
so you see where I am at, and for IMHO a very good reason, the benefit of all humankind, GODS will, WILL be done, I KNOW HIM, and thats just how it is....plain, simple, and honest.
I am sure I will be labeled a crackpot... or perhaps a cracked pot... I don't care, I am not in a popularity contest for humans, I love them, and care about them, I am one and I am here on earth to serve GOD, the best way I can, the good Lord willing. the truth, is the truth, pretty or not, popular or not, and I don't believe there is one truth for you, and another truth for me, and another for someone else, if that were the case truth would have no meaning...its truth, or its not truth!!! I know that truth will prove itself with time.
I know what I am about to say may fall on unreceptive ears, and you may find it comical, this is ok, I understand where you are coming from. I put ALL my trust in GOD, and believe staunchly, and unequivocally that HE owns, and is in control of everything. I think money and power are useless things to fight over, or worry about... fleeting and very temporary, a drop in the bucket of eternity, if even that. I believe, however, that moral issues have great value, are worth fighting for, and shape generations thereby dictating what our world is like for the human race both now AND in the future. I also believe everything that is occurring now, GOD has planned for, and in it, has a purpose. I believe out of all of it that HIS will is going to be served, despite mans ideas to the contrary. GOD loves us, and will only allow degeneration of the earth, and mankind to go just so far and those that wish to continue, against HIM, will only destroy themselves. I think that those who are very rich, with great power have no beneficial plans for the sheep of the United States pastures. I believe they like to have poor, and dependant masses, they make great guinea pigs for the huge pharmaceutical companies, and are helpful in making their "generous" [perhaps that should read onerous] benefactors look good when they toss them crumbs. I could go on and on, I am of course disgusted with all of it, and its all out of our control, people sat by, and watched their freedoms dissovle, would NOT stand up for what is right, and decent.... they didn't even whimper as long as they felt economically secure, and had plenty of government hand-outs to keep them from feeling any unpleasantness. I think its already too late to make much-needed change, and that those who are hoping, and working for change are focused on the wrong things!
I believe we should be governed by GOD, a theocracy, as it once was...for you this statement borders on fairytale I am sure, and the way things are now most people do not have a personal relationship with HIM they don't really know or care who Jesus is or what HE has done or what was meant by any of it....so its just not possible but this will not always be so. I know we are coming from an entirely different spectrum of belief so I do not expect you to think what I am saying here to have any validity...but watch and see it all unfolds before our very eyes, GOD is awesome in HIS majesty and power. Jesus sits at HIS right hand forevermore For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, Every Knee Shall Bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Romans 14:11,12
and GOD will rule and reign forever more
GOD bless you Emil, I am sure we can agree to disagree, and I have learned over time that things change :)
by the way I already read all of the Mccain and Obama exchanges, their mistakes, and comments... and I really believe they are both way out of touch with what Americans want and need and they both are pandering to a public that has lost a lot of interest in the whole fiasco... not sure either of them could tell you what the price is at the gas pumps and I AM sure that neither really cares
haha... I think we have terrible choices, and its too bad we can't go backwards in the way candidates are selected, as it is now they buy their way in, and no one without large sums of money can even get themselves considered. Sad. I vote for moral issues, as you know I have great faith in GOD, and believe HE is in control. HE alone can make things work, and I refuse to go against what HE outlines as right. Having said that, I will say this, you are correct I do NOT know what Mccain considers middleclass but I do know where he stands on some important moral issues and thats what really matters to me. I don't think he is a good choice, just, in mho, the lesser of 2 evils and nothing will convince me otherwise, just as nothing will make you think differently than your strongly held beliefs... in that I am sure we can agree. I would, out of curiosity, like to know what Mccain thinks is middleclass. I find a lot of their rhetoric amusing, and since they are running for the [publicly acclaimed] most important, and influential [also publicly acclaimed] position in USA government that I also find sad. GOD bless you, I enjoy your site and your comments. oh and by the way, GOD does ignore time, to HIM a thousand years is as a day and a day is as a thousand years.... 2Peter 3:8
GOD bless you to hon, all the help you give will come back to you thats a promise from GOD himself, HE says you can NOT out give HIM.... I will be praying for you and your family, keep on keeping on, I know life can be tough but you are not in it alone, check locally for organizations that supply needs for newborns, and most communities have a group that is made up of families that have twins, the people that belong to those groups know what its like to have twins, and the needs you will have, and they are willing to help often with clothes and infant furniture. Its worth a try I know theres one here in my area and hopefully one in yours.
The Bible says, "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life" JOHN 3:16
The problem is that . . .
2. All of us have done, said or thought things that are wrong. This is called sin, and our sins have separated us from God.
The Bible says “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” ROMANS 3:23 God is perfect and holy, and our sins separate us from God forever. The Bible says “The wages of sin is death.” ROMANS 6:23
The good news is that, about 2,000 years ago,
3. God sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins.
Jesus is the Son of God. He lived a sinless life and then died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins. “God demonstrates His own love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.” ROMANS 5:8, if we do not repent? LUKE 13:5
Jesus rose from the dead and now He lives in heaven with God His Father. HEBREWS 1:3 He offers us the gift of eternal life -- of living forever with Him in heaven if we accept Him as our Lord and Savior. 1JOHN 2:15-17, JOHN 6:66-69 Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except by Me."JOHN 14:6
God reaches out in love to you, and wants you to be His child. "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe on His name." JOHN 1:12
You can choose to ask Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and come in to your life as your Lord and Savior.
4. If you want to accept Christ as Savior and turn from your sins, you can ask Him to be your Savior and Lord by praying a prayer like this:
"Lord Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God. Thank you for dying on the cross for all my sins. Please forgive my sins, and give me the gift of eternal life. I ask you to come into my life and heart to be my Lord and Savior. I want to serve you always
adding calcium,magnesium, vitamin C and D can help your body have the tools it needs to get rid of pain and prayer I think prayer first then the rest GOD bless
have you searched on who~knews page for help? do that first, also have you told the utility company the whole story of your problem? the reasons etc. and asked them to discount the amount for you? sometimes they will. as for the credit card companies they are such rip-offs wanting to charge more, and more interest for any and every reason ask them to lower your interest rate get rid of all of them but one if possible, maybe one will consolidate for you ask the one you trust the most if they will take on all your other credit card debts and let you pay them off as you can.... explain everything that happened, and write down which ones you have, tell them you will be on the internet letting others know the kind of treatment you have gotten from them, so that future customers will be aware of who can be trusted and this will surely effect their business. I have done all these things with good results and it does not hurt to try...old saying nothing ventured, nothing gained GOD bless.
well yes, contact the school, school taxes have never been higher, and the schools provide far less than they ever have before, and they also require much more than ever before, they wait to send out what is needed for school until the prices in the local stores have escalated.... when they should give the list to the children as they graduate to the next grade just as summer begins, that way people could take advantage of the sales going on during summer when business for those items is at a stand still. I think calling the school and asking them what they suggest and also giving them that idea might be useful hey you never know, its worth a try.
well, I just spent a good deal of time answering you, and lost every word how incredibly annoying... I am having dinner, and will rewrite or try to anyway my opinions when I have finished
I have been thinking, I wonder if the President ever looks at the internet....I wonder if ANYONE who has the wherewithall to help out these people here, in their suffering, ever reads these pages, ever thinks boy, we send tons of money overseas to help those in need, and here there are many in our own country that can't find a way out of their problems or help with basic needs. I wonder if we have become so used to things that other countries would call luxeries that we consider them needs, and in our line up of priorities we put wants ahead of needs and therefore find ourselves with real needs because we are busy supplying our wants first instead of our real needs....just a thought
I will pray for your situation, don't feel humiliated, everyone on this planet goes through tough times, we need to learn to receive help as well as give it, thats what life is all about learning to help our brothers and sisters in this world, and learning to be humble enough to receive help back when we need it. I think its one of the most important lessons of life and something GOD wants to teach us. I know things will get better, so keep on keeping on you can do it!!!
