Are you familiar with the hymn....Trust and Obey as well Yes. I grew up in an intolerant, unaccepting church that taught that obedience far outweighed all other spiritual disciplines. <TD class="mb

I don't think of them as complete synonyms Is there such a thing as incomplete synonyms? Again . . . I've arrived at a paradox. Ggrr fist!

What about Jesus? in Misc JoeUser Forums

God and Jesus. I suppose these two words are intended to be synonyms. I mean, if you believe in the Trinity (which I do), these separate beings are One. Unfortunately, Jesus is generally portrayed as the more loving, accepting face of God. I can visualize myself crawling into the lap of my Savior when I've screwed up, but God seems more stand-o

Reply to Thoughts on not Having a TV in Misc JoeUser Forums

I recently cut off my satellite programming because the company was trying to screw me. A friend of mine loaned me the first few seasons of Friends on DVD, and that's about all I watch these days. When I was young, a family in Lefors did not have teleivision because of religious reasons. I found this to be extreme, but hey, I guess it worked for them! To each his own . . .

Reply to Do you Trust God? in Misc JoeUser Forums

I guess the question is, what DO you expect from God? I'm still chewing on that, and yes we probably should get together soon. Expectations puzzle me. I'm more in the rea

Do you Trust God? in Misc JoeUser Forums

I'm just curious to know if other folks out there in this screwed up, dysfuntional world are able to trust in a loving Father who supposedly has our best interest at heart. What is it that we expect from Him?

Reply to My Child's Teacher is a BITCH in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

Some teachers are bitches. It's true. I cannot imagine a professional educator writing, "Mom forgot" on anything. Is this lady new to teaching? I teach 4th graders and they don't have homework ANY night of the week, let alone weekends. I would highly reccomend meeting with this woman and seeking solutions. If she is defensive and testy, go to the principal. I worked with a real piece of work last year who had a line of angry parents wa

First Day #6 in Misc JoeUser Forums

I wonder if I will be one of those veteran teachers who spend their lives in the classroom? Will I always experience the thrill of anticipation that comes with getting a new group of students? Will my passion for discovery and learning wane? If this is the calling God has for me, does it mean I should pursue further education? Will I wake up some day and feel like thi

Resistance in Misc JoeUser Forums

Accepting the things I cannot change . . . I suppose the goal of an Alcoholic Anonymous and Al-anon Family Group mountain conference is not designed to irritate you, but I've found myself quite conflicted this week. You see, I am a little pissed off about God's decision making skills. Apparently, He thought it necessary for me to be born into a family

Indirectly! I know your questions very well, however, as I have struggled and grappled with them myself not long ago! I don't check out new comments often enough. So we have an indirect connection huh? I re-read your previous response and I have my suspicions to your identity. I'm glad to know you have

Hey Trinitie, please tell me how someone looking at these pics and reading the captions is supposed to know that? Brandie, I take full responsibility for the poorly written caption and article. Ignore the above comment. It's not nice to call people "stupit". Sorry.

Reply to Toying with the Questions in Misc JoeUser Forums

Concerned Friend & Gideon, Thank you for taking the time to toy with my questions. Your answers were well thought out and insightful. I appreciate your responses, and I hope I will someday reconcile all the things that make faith so difficult. P.S. Gideon, -- I saw you at my little home town church last Sunday, but I didn't know you were you until my grandmother told me later. Otherwise, I would have introduced myself. Conc
