A lot of people were shocked because of their discussion but lately they understand what they are talking about. It's not about naughty things in bed but also its about the relationship of a married Christian couple. eebf674a695cb36627b192db2ebbbff0 Jul 19, 2012, 9:00 PM http://www.praize.com/forums/People_C21/Couples_F53/The_Amazing_series_of_7_days_of_love_making_P117467/?page=unread#117467 Cool! A Pastor and author based in the Dallas area, has long taught about the importance of sexual intimacy within a marriage, his pragmatic and pastoral approach setting him apart from other religious figures, who often avoid the topic of love making altogether. It is wonderful series to watch. 05383c1b1e069527cdb18594cce7d71d Jul 19, 2012, 8:56 PM http://www.praize.com/forums/People_C21/Parents_F94/I'm_on_My_Way_to_Heaven!_P117382/?page=unread#117382 I had a thought this morning. I had walked a mile in beautiful Sedona, AZ. I intended to walk longer but was a little late getting started and felt it was too hot to go further. When I got on line, I read Praize member Roundtable's blog which can be found at: http://www.praize.com/...y_people_J27690.html and it started me thinking some rambling thoughts. My father died when I was four. We were members of the Methodist church. So I knew about "my father which art in heaven". I started praying to go to heaven to be with Daddy and I have never stopped. Seventy-one years later (and slightly wiser... although you may not think so if you read on) my prayer has never changeed. Only now I cry "when, Lord, when"? So I thought, this morning, what if I made a sign that said, "I'm on my way to Heaven" and started walking... (Of course I would have to wait a few months because of the temperatures here, like I said in the first paragraph.) I wonder which way I would head and how long it would take for the police to pick me up and institutionalize me! I just thought I would put this out there and get your thoughts and maybe put a smile on your face. What are YOU thinking about this morning?

Thought For Today - June 15 God Does Not Hold Grudges.! "If thou, Lord shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope." Psalm 130: 3,4,5. Praise God! He does not hold grudges and hold our sins and wrong doing over our heads to condemn us; but he is ever ready to hear our confession and self judgment, and remember our sins no more. If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, otherwise, if this were not the case, who could stand? Who would be able to serve him? Who would be able to preach and to teach? For none is worthy unless he accounts them to be worthy through his grace, and mercy and forgiveness, for: - " There is none righteous in himself, no ,not one, for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." Therefore, once having brought our sins before God, and claiming the cleansing power of his shed blood, let us go our way rejoicing and sin no more. Each new day he gives us a clean new slate upon which to write the history of our lives. Beginning today, the first day of the rest of our lives, with the strength of our forgiven, redeemed lives and resurrected souls, let us be renewed in our mind and empowered by the Holy Spirit to go forth today to our place of duty and service and be glad, and do all that God wants us to do for him.

We have decided that we are going to stop going to 1 of our 2 Bible Studies we have with her.. We have been doing 2 Bible Studies with her for up to about 3 months.. ( My hubby hurt his arm at work 3 months ago, so Workers Comp, made him only work 8 hours a day.) So back then, we were able to do that. But as of tomorrow, my hubby is back to 10 hours day. Which is funny.. Lee, (our Bible Study leader) took me aside and told me that we shouldn't be looking for a house, and that we shouldn't try and start a family, and that my hubby (who is a pipefitter) should quit his job, and find a lower paying, and a job that only works 8 hours a day... She told me to, "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." I don't think I believe in that.. Well, I do, but not from where she is coming from. I believe that you do so much, and God will gladly help you out with the rest.. At least, we do our part, and God will help us out! That's how I see it.. (Correct me if I am wrong.) So anyways, hubby and I both decided that we are going to Lee that we both feel led not to continue with one of our Bible Studies.. But, Lee is going to tell us, that we are being attacked by Satan. And if we tell her that we have no time during our busy days, she is going to tell us to get a new job or she will arrange to come over on a saturday or sunday.. Lee is REALLY, REALLY persistant... If we are busy one day, she will tell us that she will come over / and invite herself over ( and even show up on our doorstep!!!! ) - UNINVITED!!!!!!! That really intimidates my hubby, who is a new believer.. He feels that she is watching him like a hawk..etc.. I love the fact that Lee is so 'radical' but, she is too radical for us at the moment.. I believe my hubby needs baby steps.. Lee expects us to be at her level with Radicalness like yesterday!! And she gets mad if we don't pick something up as quick as she does. Lee believes we have to spend every living moment with God. She does have a point there.. But, everybody has a life, right?? I need my hubby time.. I love my hubby.. I love God, but knowing Lee, she will arrange something with herself, and show up on our doorstep every other day.. Please pray that I can get through to her.. And, right now, at this point, we are thinking of cancelling her all together, and stopping with that other Bible Study we have.. So, please pray that we make the right decision!!! Thanks!! ba277f79f92ea61fe28b6e24e444dd27 Nov 22, 2011, 6:54 AM http://www.praize.com/forums/People_C21/Looking_for_Answers_F22/Advice_Please!!_P116140/?page=unread#116140 Hey everyone! My new born again Christian husband and myself, are attending a Bible Study.. Our leader, Lee, is a wonderful, passionate lady. There was about 2 weeks my husband and I could not go to Bible Study because we both were sick. Lee called us up and told me that Satan was attacking us, and that's why we got sick. I got really offended by that.. Maybe Satan was attacking us.. But I felt really offended by how she said that. Another thing that really confuses me, is she really frowns upon the fact that some people use reference guides or commentaries when it comes to the Bible. I use one. And I love it. She is upset that I use it. Lee keeps telling us to read verses and mediate on the words. So, we were reading a verse, and she asked us what we thought the verse meant. So, I explained what I thought the verse meant to me, and she blew up!! She started yelling at me because apparently I took the words out wrong / well, it wasn't the right answer, anyway.. according to her. But hey, in my defense, I believe that God's word in a way, means something different to everyone.. I can't see one verse meaning the same to everyone.. Well, some verses mean the same to everyone.. But, if God wanted every verse in the Bible to mean exactly what Lee thinks the verse meant, then God would have created us as robots, right? She has this need to be right all the time.. It's quite frustrating.. I really don't feel comfortable with this Bible Study. I want to get out of it.. My husband and I feel so stressed.. My husband and I both feel sick to our stomachs whenever we think about staying with the Bible Study, or leaving.. We don't know if this feeling is from God, or if it's the Devil.. Although, I do believe, that if something is not right, then we would both feel that it is not right, or that it is something God does not want us to do.. I'm praying really hard and asking God to show me what He wants us to do. I don't know if this 'sick' feeling we get is from God or from Satan. Oh, and she REALLY gets offended if we ask / question other people about what she has to teach us.. My hubby is new, he likes to get advice from other Christians, and when she finds out he did that, she gets mad. And, Lee also gets mad if we don't pick up on something or understand verses the way she does.. I think she thinks that we should be way up top with her like yesterday.. She also really believes that EVERYONE has to be evangelists.. Which is great! And yes, we are all called to evangelize, but, corrrect me if I am wrong, I think that not everyone has the gift to evangelize.. I believe everyone has different gifts and not everyone is to evangelize.. So, it's really confusing and frustrating. Another thing that kind of bothers me, is that, Lee will listen to the Pastors on Sunday and even critic them!! I think that is so wrong.. She tells our Bible Study that, the pastor was wrong on Sunday.. that he quoted a Scripture wrong, or he took it the wrong way, or that he was even using notes / reference guide.. And its confusing for my husband.. who does he listen to? I've been a Christian most of my life, but sometimes I don't have the answers, or I don't know who is right.. I like to lean on my Pastor.. Everyone, Please pray really hard that my husband and I can follow God's plan for our lives.. Please pray that we both can feel God's discernment. I already have a strong feeling to leave this Bible Study, if it is of God, and He wants to leave this Bible Study, and if we tell Lee that we feel God doesn't want us to continue in her Bible Study, she will tell us that we are being attacked by Satan. My husband and I do not have that feeling of peace.. so I think we both feel God wants us to leave the Bible Study. Please Help! Advice and Prayer would be great!

Beck at 5 EST on Fox News or his radio show at 9 EST or his website Glenn Beck Program. I have been shoring up supplies for a while in addition to my normal summer canning and home supply preparedness, but I am checking in tonight for more information. I am sure there are things I have forgotten or don't know about storage. If you are a concerned mom and want to make sure your family is prepared for times of bad weather or civil unrest (heaven forbid) maybe this would be a good time to start to think about it. Could you feed your family for a few months should the normal supply system be disrupted for some reason? Remember when the blizzard hit last winter? Remember how fast the grocery stores went bare? Suppose you couldn't even get to the store at all. How many days worth of food and supplies do you have? Suppose the electricity goes out for a few days with storms or floods...can you cope? The best antidote to fear is being prepared.
