Jan Lyn Lewis replied to calliope's discussion 'Can you hear Him?'

Hi Cali, This is a fascinating topic and I'm not sure I have the words to describe my experience, but I too will try as I'd really LOVE to hear from many on this topic. I have not heard from God audibly, but feel that I am often in ceaseless pra...

Coach Marla replied to calliope's discussion 'Can you hear Him?'

Hi Cali, These are GREAT questions, and somewhat difficult to answer to where it makes sense to someone other than yourself......but I will give it a try. When I hear or feel answers from God, it is more of an overwhelming feeling of comfort, ha...

Hi Rozalind...I will try to see if I can find your link so that we can become friends. I am so glad that you feel this same thing too. I have been so blessed with new friends just by leaving one encouraging comment. There is no set limits or requ...

Hey Girls! I have free copies of Gospel for Asia's "Revolution in World Missions" if anyone would like to read this amazing book. This is the story of a single East Indian man whose committment and love of God created a network of missionaries,...

Can you hear Him?

What does it feel like and sound like when our Lord and Father speaks to you? How can you differentiate your will from God's? I understand that some will say that we have already heard from Him, and of course we have, in the Bible. However I am l...

Thank you for your note on my Blog. Please I so would love for you to start the discussion you mentioned. I think it would be a great one and from there it will be easier for others to enter in - on a blog others only will see comments if they write on it - you can't reply to others comments (hence me writing you here about it) - does that make sense? So....STOP JUST SITTING THERE THINKING ABOUT STARTING A DISCUSSION AND JUST DO IT! ~giggle~ =)

Your comment on the blog was really thoughtful and deep. Looking forward to further discussion about it!

With Christ's Grace!
Kimberly

P,S, From what you described - you have a PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP with our Lord, Jesus Christ. But, it isn't unusual for us to question that relationship during the times where He seemingly isn't TALKING. He IS though, Cali. And He is talking to you. Sometimes in the silences He is speaking the loudest. Ohhh ~ I have so much I want to say about this, PLEASE would you start the discussion and lets talk about it there where others can see it and join in.

But....I'm somewhat confused here.....!
On your message to me you signed it 'LORI'...?? Is your name Lori? Is Cali a petname / nickname??
Am I being silly / dozy??
Thinking of you anyhow.....Linda x

At 2:12pm on October 13, 2009, LINDA SLOAN said…: Have just seen your little status comment Cali - and thank YOU so much for having us all in your prayers. We really haven't seen so much of you around here recently - I kinda see so little of everyone, being as I am 6-7 hours behind all of you - folks here are coming alive when I've just gone to bed! I'm just now realising that Canada and US have different Thanksgiving dates - I had assumed they were the same. Anyhow, do hope you felt well enough to enjoy yourself some....do you have family get-togethers / celebrations etc?

Thinking of you Cali and hoping today is a good day for you in the Lord.
Love, Linda

Sure glad to see you! You have been in my thots and prayers. Was afraid you were not able to get back in here! Hope all is well with you. Happy Thanksgiving!!
Hugs and Love.

it’s a state of being.
It’s a firm belief that
even if you don’t know how,
even if you don’t know when,
God will come through
and better days are ahead.

Life sends rain...
Hope dances in the puddles
until the sun comes out again.

Praying and believing with you as you have with me.
Love you and thinking about you tonight. - Joy

Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. HEBREWS 11:1 NIV

I'm wanting to know how you have been this past month? Praying that all of our Sisters/Brothers on LW have experienced multiple days of being pain free! May God Bless you and Keep you.....always~

In His Love,

At 1:59pm on September 25, 2009, Joy said…: I have a lost for words, even thank you doesn't seem to be enough for your timely and thoughtful and most of all loving comment on my page. I truly needed to hear that i'm not alone and that even though you are struggling as well you are thinking of me and loving me.

Just know that my heart leaps with gratitude over your precious friendship/sisterhood. Know that you are also in my prayers sweetness. If i am able to find the words to express what i have been dealing with i promise to share. Sometimes words ellude me in grieving times. I know that God is ever present and using this to help me be a better person. The emotional, spiritual growing pain aren't meant for harm but are God helping be a better person. I'm still struggling physcially and its hard but i take to heart your loving words that i'm not alone and that your friendship comforts me.

Love you my sweet -
Joy

Helloooo...? Hello? Anyone out there?

While my chronic illness and disability have been, strangely, good for me, and my soul, it has been horrible for maintaining friendships. Isolation seems to be a common complaint for people suffering from these challenges. When isolation and loneliness hang around for too long, though, depression is the natural outcome.

That's why it is so healing and wonderful to be a friend among many friends here at LW. But while my cyber friends are absolutely loved the same way as my '3d' friends, sometime… Continue

Lesson from my prodigal cat.....

It seems to me, every now and again, that God allows me glimpses into His soul, revealing images that drive home His messages of extravagant love for me.

Most recently, I think that He knew that I really, really needed a laugh. Floundering under the weight of tribulations, I truly believe that He heard my cry and wanted to make me grin. How? By providing me with my own version of "the Prodigal son"; "The Prodigal Cat."

I have never been much of a cat person. I had one growing up, "Calico," who… Continue

does anyone have a link?

Hi everyone

I was surfing the net tonight and came across a site with Jesuit ministry. (They have daily devotions etc).

Someone had posed the question, "What is the difference between Catholic and Protestant bibles?" I didn't know there was any difference. Apparently the Catholic bible has 7 more books than the protestant bible, with enhanced sections for the Book of Esther.

Does anyone have a link to the text of these books? I understand that they are called the 'deuterocanonical' boo… Continue

Chronically NOT My(OLD)self - Devotional thoughts by Kimberly Walker

LEARNING TO ABIDE IN HIM

John 15:4-5 “Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me, and I in him, he bears much fruit; for apart [...]

DISTRACTED by Chronic Pain

1 Corinthians 1 Paul refers to Jesus Christ nine times in the first nine verses. We are correctly focused when we can say from the depths of our being, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain” (Philippians 1:21, ESV), and that our determined purpose in life is “that I may [...]
