Matthew 4:11
Then the
devil left him, and angels came and attended him.
1 Peter 5:8
Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the
devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
The devil will play tricks on your mind, he will oppress you until you become paralized with fear. Until you can no longer move. The Devil will find your weaknesses and exploit them. He will use every small crack in your mind, your body and your soul to weaken you. He inspires fear, sin, greed, coveteousness, etc.
Recognize when the devil is trying get a hold of you. Write down your weaknesses and keep track of them. See what it is that triggers it? Keep an eye on it for a while and see if you can recognize some patterns that are happening, this will enlighten you to a whole new level!
The devil is very sneaky. He'll make you go around in circles, make you feel lowsy about yourself. If he knows where you are weak, he'll try to destroy every part of it. Every part of you. You need to know when the devil is attacking you and tell him he is not allowed in your life.
Try to practice these things see how it goes? Don't let fear dominate your life, you will just give the devil control , and we all know the devil is not in control. God is and always will be.
Matthew 4:1
[
The Temptation of Jesus ] Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the
devil.
2 Timothy 2:26
and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the
devil, who has taken them captive to do his will
Did you know that Barack O'bama supports gay rights it's on his website "O'bama Pride"? I found in the bible that it's in the new and the old testiments that God is against homosexuality. I think as a Christian, that Barack should be aware of this? I don't think that you can truely be a Christian in the eyes of God if you are going agianst him in Sin? This is one of his sins that he talks about. We can not create a God to suit our own image. We must be in His image and likeness which is how we are made.
The Bible
There are claims that the Bible does not really condemn homosexual behavior or that Jesus would not condemn this behavior. But let's look at what the Bible actually says.
The Bible contains 9 specific references to homosexuality: 4 in the Old Testament (Genesis 19:1-25; Judges 19:22-30; Leviticus 18:22; and Leviticus 20:13) and 5 in the New Testament (Romans 1:24-28; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10; 1 Timothy 1:8-11; 2 Peter 2:6-10; and Jude 7). The passage in Romans, in particular is so clear that it seems to have been written by St. Paul in anticipation that people might challenge the idea that homosexual behavior is wrong (in case you don't get it, let me make it perfectly clear!). In addition, there are numerous other passages that touch on this topic indirectly through comments on the biblical view of marriage and family, promiscuity, and sexual purity. Included in these references are Genesis 2:18-25; Proverbs 18:22; Mark 7:21, 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5; Romans 6:13, 13:13; 1 Corinthians 6:13, 18-19; Galatians 5:19-21; Colossians 3:5; Revelation 21:8, 22:15.
· Homosexual behavior is always discussed in the Bible as a serious sin. It is often discussed in the context of idolatry. In that context it is listed among other particularly heinous sins as examples of how depraved one can become when idolatry is present. Idolatry is a most serious offense against God, and its seriousness helps explain why homosexual behavior was a capital offense in the Old Testament. Historical Christian interpretation has consistently viewed homosexual behavior as sinful. The modern word sodomy even comes from the biblical account of Sodom and Gomorrah.
But it should be pointed out that what the Bible condemns is not personality traits such as feminine feelings on the part of a man (or masculine feelings on the part of a woman). It condemns the act of homosexual sex.
There are those who take some of the passages of Scripture above and attempt to show that they do not really mean to condemn homosexuality. But these arguments fall short, and upon investigation become an obvious ploy to distort the plain meaning of Scripture. As applies to other doctrines of the Bible, one must avoid trying to interpret Scripture in light of one's proclivities, and instead, interpret one's proclivities in light of Scripture. The Bible is the grid. It is wrong to overlay your own grid on the Bible.
- Is the biblical view still valid?
One view, that the law in Leviticus was intended for the ancient Hebrews and does not apply today, must be considered. The Old Testament condemns as evil many things that are commonly accepted in the modern world (eating pork, etc.). It is helpful to understand the difference between CIVIL or CEREMONIAL LAWS versus MORAL LAWS in the Bible. While civil or ceremonial laws can and do change from country to country, moral laws do not change because they are rooted in the nature of man. The New Testament repealed various Old Testament ceremonial Jewish laws (Acts 10:12-15, Colossians 2:11-16, Romans 14:17). But, the Bible is consistent throughout on moral law, which includes homosexual behavior.
No specific sermon or story that Jesus may have given about specific homosexual behavior is found in Scripture. But an argument from silence would be incorrect. The Bible does not record that Jesus ever mentioned rape, incest, pedophilia, or other blatant sins by name either. But just because Jesus does not mention them, does not imply that we should commit these offenses against God and each other. Jesus is very clear on the proper marriage relationship (Matthew 19:4-5). There can be no mistaking what Jesus taught in this regard. In this passage Jesus is reiterating what Moses taught (Genesis 2:24) about marriage and family. Anything contrary to this—any sexual relationship outside of a committed marriage relationship between one man and one woman—demeans the institution of marriage and is unbiblical.
Jesus was quite clear about his contempt for sexual immorality (Mark 7:21). Jesus' teaching on moral issues in fact toughened and strengthened them, such as in Matthew 5:27-30 when he expanded our understanding of sexual sin to even lusting in our heart!
Jesus didn't merely accept people as he found them—he turned people's lives around. After his encounter with Jesus, the tax collector Zacchaeus pledged to pay back his debts fourfold (Luke 19). And Jesus made it clear to the adulteress in John 8 to leave her life of sin.
Further, Jesus specifically said that he did not come to abolish the law (Matthew 5:17). Jewish law was quite clear on homosexual behavior. To suggest that Jesus would have condoned homosexual behavior is twisting Scripture for political correctness.
The God of the Bible is not merely a God of love and forgiveness. God has characteristics of love AND justice (among others). Jesus, for example, warns about hell more than any other biblical figure! We must not underestimate the holiness of God, who demands right conduct—in fact, perfection (Matthew 5:48). For examples of the wrath and judgment of God, read: Genesis 2:17; 2 Kings 17:18; Psalm 74:1, 79:5, 90:11; Proverbs 10:16; Micah 7:9; Zephaniah 3:8; Matthew 5:29, 7:13, 25:46; Romans 1:32, 2:8, 6:23; Acts 3:19; 1 Corinthians 6:9; Galatians 6:7-8; Philippians 3:19; 2 Thessalonians 1:9; James 1:15; and Revelation 20:12-15.
There are those who suggest that God is merely a God of love and accepts people just as they are. Certainly that is incorrect. God does not accept us as we are. He demands repentance. We must not create a God to suit ourself. This is idolatry which is a violation of the Second Commandment.

1:1 In the beginning1 God2 created3 the heavens and the earth.4
1:2 Now5 the earth6 was without shape and empty,7 and darkness8 was over the surface of the watery deep,9 but the Spirit of God10 was moving11 over the surface12 of the water.13 1:3 God said,14 “Let there be15 light.”16 And there was light! 1:4 God saw17 that the light was good,18 so God separated19 the light from the darkness. 1:5 God called20 the light “day” and the darkness21 “night.” There was evening, and there was morning, marking the first day.22
1:6 God said, “Let there be an expanse23 in the midst of the waters and let it separate water24 from water. 1:7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it.25 It was so.26 1:8 God called the expanse “sky.”27 There was evening, and there was morning, a second day.
1:9 God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place28 and let dry ground appear.”29 It was so. 1:10 God called the dry ground “land”30 and the gathered waters he called “seas.” God saw that it was good.
1:11 God said, “Let the land produce vegetation:31 plants yielding seeds according to their kinds,32 and33 trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds.” It was so. 1:12 The land produced vegetation – plants yielding seeds according to their kinds, and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. God saw that it was good. 1:13 There was evening, and there was morning, a third day.
1:14 God said, “Let there be lights34 in the expanse35 of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them be signs36 to indicate seasons and days and years, 1:15 and let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.” It was so. 1:16 God made two great lights37 – the greater light to rule over the day and the lesser light to rule over the night. He made the stars also.38 1:17 God placed the lights39 in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth, 1:18 to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness.40 God saw that it was good. 1:19 There was evening, and there was morning, a fourth day.
1:20 God said, “Let the water swarm with swarms41 of living creatures and let birds fly42 above the earth across the expanse of the sky.” 1:21 God created the great sea creatures43 and every living and moving thing with which the water swarmed, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. God saw that it was good. 1:22 God blessed them44 and said, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds multiply on the earth.”45 1:23 There was evening, and there was morning, a fifth day.
1:24 God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: cattle, creeping things, and wild animals, each according to its kind.”46 It was so. 1:25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the cattle according to their kinds, and all the creatures that creep along the ground according to their kinds. God saw that it was good.
1:26 Then God said, “Let us make47 humankind48 in our image, after our likeness,49 so they may rule50 over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the cattle, and over all the earth,51 and over all the creatures that move52 on the earth.”
1:27 God created humankind53 in his own image, in the image of God he created them,54 male and female he created them.55
1:28 God blessed56 them and said57 to them, “Be fruitful and multiply! Fill the earth and subdue it!58 Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that moves on the ground.”59 1:29 Then God said, “I now60 give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the entire earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.61 1:30 And to all the animals of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to all the creatures that move on the ground – everything that has the breath of life in it – I give62 every green plant for food.” It was so.
1:31 God saw all that he had made – and it was very good!63 There was evening, and there was morning, the sixth day.
Isaiah 58:10
'and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.'
I think it's very important that we have the ability to express ourselves. There is a reason that there are these forms of communications out there available for us - to communicate to one another and to ourselves. It's theraputic for some.
I have seen some very personal blog writtings from other people as well and I don't feel the least bit guilty of expressing exactly how I feel. Anyway, I know I've written some very personal things about my problems on my blog too. I felt at the time that I was hurting and needed some help in sorting out my thoughts and needed some encouragement. I don't think that there was anything wrong with that. We are all human beings and we all have certain needs in our lives that need to be met.
My life sometimes feels like a rollercoster that goes up and down - but doesn't stop. Sometimes it's a good idea to take a time out. Sit back relax and take a nap. I find after taking a nap I am so much more refreshed and can think much more clearly.
I did receive an interesting comment about maybe I should keep my feelings with the holy spirit. Well sometimes that isn't always possible. Sometimes you just have to let it out. I hope you know that I am saying these things not to attack people but to bring enlightenment to what's being said.
I enjoy writing and connecting with other people and enjoy the experience. I've seen way more personal blogging than what I've written about and I think it's great. People need to be able to do that. Without feeling guilty afterwards. At the time that was the need that wasn't being met.
Isaiah 58:11
The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.
Having a voice - Scriptures with VOICE
Exodus 15:26
He said, "If you listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, who heals you."
Exodus 19:19
and the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder. Then Moses spoke and the voice of God answered him.
Deuteronomy 4:33
Has any other people heard the voice of God speaking out of fire, as you have, and lived?
Exodus 31:3
and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts-
2 Chronicles 1:12
therefore wisdom and knowledge will be given you. And I will also give you wealth, riches and honor, such as no king who was before you ever had and none after you will have."
Proverbs 1:22
Listen to this passage
22 "How long will you simple ones [a] love your simple ways?
How long will mockers delight in mockery
and fools hate knowledge?
Footnotes:
- Proverbs 1:22 The Hebrew word rendered simple in Proverbs generally denotes one without moral direction and inclined to evil.
9 They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,
for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD
as the waters cover the sea.
1 Corinthians 13:9-12 (New International Version)
9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

Hello.
I would like to say that I have been searching articles, and asking questions because I knew that I did not have all the facts up front. I was trying to get the story straight. Because I didn'thave what I needed to firmly form an accurate opinion.
I know that in my heart that Mac Hammond is a good man. I know that Kenneth Copeland isa good man. When my Uncle Marshall started working in the ministry, he started working forKenneth Copeland in the early 1980's.
So, I kind of have you say a personal connection with the church. I am not by any means tryingto put the church down. That's not what I want to do. All I want to do is get my facts straight. That is why I pulled that information out of articles and posted the links to those articles so thatpeople could go back and reference them. It's not my own information - it what was written in the
And that way it would look like I did not make this up. All the replies that I got have been very , very helpfull. I was just asking for some clarification on the whole subject of the investigation. And I am glad that they have both been cleared.
I am a member of the church and I LOVE the church. I love the atmosphere and everything about it. I love the energy and especially the music. I just wanted to clear my conscious (spelling?) of Macof any wrong doing.
That was my only intent was to get all the facts straight for myself.
Thanks again for helping me out.
MissJen
I don't want to sound or become negative about Mac Hammond , because I do like him. I was researching some information on him. Remember how he's talked about his CargoCompany that he use to own / and or run before he became a minister / pastor?
I have one important question: if you are a pastor do you not have to pay taxes?
Well I read this for a fact in the Star & Tribune that his business had failed and that he owed the IRS $100,000 in back taxes. It didn't say the reasoning for the back taxes but if you pay your taxes every year like you should , you should not owe the IRS anything.
I had a friend one time who told me they owed the IRS $13,000 in back taxes because of how he filled out his W2 form so that he wouldn't have to pay taxes on his paycheck. Well it finally had caught up to him and they are automatically taking money out of his paycheck every time he get's paid. Which leaves him with very little to work with.
And this was something of his own doing. The fact that Kenneth Copeland does not want to turn over financial records, really leaves me feeling bothered about the whole thing. Like I said I really do like Mac Hammond. So I don't know what to think about the whole thing.
I do know that a letter was sent to the congregation. I don't have a copy of the letter. So I don't know what it says. Brian Sullivan was worried about the integrity of the investigation and I can see that.
Here are some excerpts from articles I've found:
http://www.startribune.com/local/north/15724587.html
States that Kenneth Copeland who is affiliated with Mac Hammond’s church states that he does not want to turn over financial records.
Here is an excerpt from the article read what he has to say :
Kenneth Copeland aggressively rejected the Senate Finance Committee request for records. “It’s not yours, it’s God’s, and you’re not going to get it — and that’s something I’ll go to prison over,” Copeland said at a meeting of prosperity ministers he sponsored in January.

Dealing with less prosperity, Mac Hammond’s church cuts back
(my opinion) Yes - this could be a direct hit from the economy and has absolutely nothing to do with the investigation or it could.
This is not Hammond's first brush with the IRS. After an air cargo company he owned failed in the 1980s, Hammond owed more than $100,000 in back taxes and interest, which he ultimately paid.
Hammond said in court documents in 1988 that, "We had no personal assets of any significance [in 1981], and still have none: we do not own a home, we do not have an investment/retirement/savings accounts."
Hammond has since prospered. Last year, records show, his Destin homes were worth more than $3 million. He pays no taxes on his Plymouth home, and has a number of luxury vehicles and boats registered in his name.
Hammond has expressed disdain for the IRS, including an allegation in 1988 court files that "the IRS has conducted itself in a disgusting manner, with arrogant disregard for the moral, ethical and legal standards that no office of government should be above."
A former board member of Hammond's church, Robert Beale, was convicted this summer of tax fraud and fleeing to avoid prosecution. The church distanced itself from Beale after he was arrested, saying Hammond disagreed with Beale's antitax philosophy.
Hammond's church's creed, often called the "prosperity Gospel," says that following God's word will lead not only to spiritual salvation but also earthly wealth.
"I think it's important that I not be embarrassed about the increase the Lord does bring me," Hammond said last year.

Hi. I'd like to thank the ladies who have left encouraging comments. I live in Minnesota.
I think Sabine was wondering where I live. If any of you girls would like to get together
just let me know.
The reason I am writing this post, is because I tried to reply to Sabine's comment and there's no way to
get your contact information. I would like to get your email.
That is if you are in the same state? I think Gillion is in California. It's so nice to have somone to talk to and not feel like you are just talking to yourself.
I was very afraid of getting too personal with my situation and afraid of somethingbeing exposed or exposing too much. But there are a lot of people who write withtheir hearts and I'm not the only one.
I'm not the only one who has issues in their life that are hard to deal with. What makesit harder to deal with is when you feel isolated. I try not to isolate myself. This weekendI am going to Joann Fabrics to help with a sewing project for special needs kids / young
adults. It is a group called Special Angels I found them through volunteermatch.com I've met some very nice girls / ladies. I take care of their blog and trying to raise funds to get the website up and going. They need $150.00 a year to keep the website running.
They are a non profit group called Our_Special_Angels and you can find them through Yahoo.The other day I went out to a movie with one of the "Angels" I picked her up and we went together. It was very nice.
It's connections like that , that keep me going.

September 17, 2008Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.
--Hebrews 12:1-3
Maybe you've experienced disappointment in your life lately. Possibly a challenge faces you just around the corner.
If so, how do you get up when you're down? Look up! That's what Nehemiah did when there was opposition to the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem.
Listen to his prayer in Nehemiah 4:4: "Hear, O our God, for we are despised. Turn back their taunt on their own heads and give them up to be plundered in a land where they are captives."
Nehemiah didn't waste time or divert from the task at hand dealing with all the criticism he received from those who opposed him rebuilding the wall. Instead of trying to handle it all on his own, you know what Nehemiah did? He went straight to the throne of God. Nehemiah recognized that God could do a better job of dealing with his enemies than he could, so he just gave it all to God!
The next time you're down or discouraged, let me give you the best piece of advice that you could ever hear: Run to God! Cry out to Him! Now, how simple is that?
And yet, so often we try to figure everything out on our own. We try to fix things ourselves. And then we come to the end and we say, "Well, I guess it's come to this; I guess I'm just going to pray now."
Don't make prayer your last chance... make it your first choice!
Somebody said if you look behind you, you'll be defeated. If you look ahead of you, you'll be distressed. If you look around you, you'll be discouraged. But if you look above you, you will be determined.
As our verse for today says, when problems come, take them to the top! Go to the Lord and tell Him all about it. Look to Him to overcome the disappointments you face in life.
ARE YOU WORRIED? DISAPPOINTED? STRESSED?
TELL GOD ABOUT IT, AND HE WILL HELP YOU TODAY!
I had a bad night. One of these nights reminded me of how bad people can me, their motives, their actions and inactions towards people who they think are less than they are. I think I figured it out, they need to have control over someone to make themselves feel superior. That's all it is. The only person who has control over me is God. God is the only one who never fails me. I don't have to worry about God failing to be my friend.
My perspectives sometimes are not always accurate either. My thoughts tend to drift into dark corners where they shouldn't go. It's the devil that is trying to pull me away from God. And I can say that I can recognize these things and pull myself back into God's thoughts. I am not going to allow myself to be a victim of the devil's thoughts and how he tries to manipulate me into thinking that I am just a bad person. Because I know I am not a bad person. God does not see me like that.
I sometimes feel extremely discouraged with having depressed thoughts. It seems that I have had depressive thoughts for years and they are hard to get rid of. Just like a stain that you try to wash it out and it seems to disappear for a while and keeps coming back. They call it a rinse and repeat cycle. The next time you find yourself thinking depressive thoughts or your mind wanders off to a dark place that you don't want to be in, remind yourself or say to yourself
"I want to have a God (good) thought." , "How would God think about me?" , "God see's me as good!"
Don't allow the devil to gain control of your mind. Remember you can always pull yourself back into God's Realm. Surround yourself with Christians who will want to share positive, enlightening converstations, and give you the encouragement you need to push forward and not pull back. That's what the devil wants and we're not going to let him have it are we? NO!
I like God and like people who like God. They are good people. I want to be among those good people and to be accepted for who I am as a human being and nothing less.
I was made in God's image and likeness just as you are!
Commentary:
I know full well that not all people are bad. I know their not. It just seems like there are days
that , that is all I am faced with. My friends are very busy running their own lives and it just
seems like sometimes I am forgotten about. It is very nice to get encouragement.
I am proud to say that I have completely read this book. I even read through "about the author" section. Even though it's a horrible time in human history it was a well written book. There are a few surprises that I didn't see coming in the pages also.
Irene Nemirovsky was an author who lived during the time period of the Nazi Era under Hitler's rule of communism. Her two daughters had managed to escape Germany with their mother's diary notes! Wow. Her diary notes were translated directly from her notes that were written in German.
There is a sweet love story that happens between a German soldier that has to stay in one of the residential homes with the homeowner, who's husband is away. She does not love her husband. That however is not the only main focus in the book.
I would highly recommend getting this book, not because I am in a good mood, but because really it is a good book. It's well told with real people's names being used with the book being told in a fictional way on a real account of history.
In the back of the book the diary notes are written, with the real accounts of what happened while Irene was in Germany during that horrific time of history. I read through the entire book, the notes on the author and the diary notes as well. I can see why this book in particular would be an excellent one to read.
I do realize that it is the devil that is putting these thoughts into my mind. Even though a lot of you may not fully realize my situation and the circumstances surrounding my situation. My bad thoughts are only temporary thoughts. I just get so frustrated with people's hurtful actions and inactions towards me.
It is sometimes very hard to just "brush" those things off and not let it bother you when you have things yourself that you can not always control. It's just not that easy. I am glad I asked for encouragement and I got it.
I would never go through with "not being here". Because I know that I would not end up in heaven where I belong.
I just sometimes wish I were in heaven sooner than later, because I know it's a better place up there than it is down here. Down here you have to deal with so much sometimes.
Why should it matter to people so much especially my co-workers whether or not I can handle things on the job or not? Especially what I do more than less does not pertain to them and what they do. A lot of spitefull people are just plain mean and nasty when it comes right down to it.
But I am not going to be focusing on bad thoughts today. I don't want it to be dominating my day. I want good thoughts to be dominating my life because I know it can only be good for me. Sometimes I need more than self-therapy. I need the encouragement from others.
What I am looking for is that other people really do care, instead of trying to be hurtful.
In His Love.

Tonight was one of those nights I wish I were not here. Sure, I try to cover up my feelings and hurts like every one else does. But for some reason I am considered worthless and unworthy of even a human being status. It’s almost like people have to remind me of where I stand and I can’t go out of my "unhappy" little world. If they see that I am happy, people have to try and ruin that too. I sometimes feel extremely discouraged with having depression, and why do I need to suffer like this? I like God and like people who like God. They are good people. I want to be among those good people and to be accepted for who I am as a human being and nothing less.
I feel worthless most of the time, even though I have things going on in my life I feel like they are not important. I am seeking treatment for my depression and I am on medication. Because of the way that I have been teased by adults, I have a really hard time trusting anyone. People really need to stop and think about their words and their actions towards others. What they do and say to others really does have a positive or negative effect. Especially if that person looks up to you.
Even though I have GOD, my spirit and my heart have been broken for a long, long time. I’ve had hands laid on me for healing. I’ve prayed in toungs, I’ve prayed in regular prayer.
Tell me why am I suppose to stay worthless, why am I suppose to be less than everyone else? I almost feel like it’s my fault these things are happening to me. I am an adult but the way I feel inside, I feel like I’m in handcuffs every day. I feel like I am the bad guy. But I know that God does not see me that way, and God's people do not see me that way either. I find that well, there must be some reason I have friends in far away places, I don't know the reasoning that God has behind it. But I am sure that one day he will show it to me when I least expect Him to.
Please pray for me.
