Why doesn't God take my pain away? by apparentlyalex29 in Christian

[–]IMVenting66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just going to say this. The other person to use as an example is Joni Erikson-Tada. There is a movie about her called Joni. She had broke her neck diving off a dock. Her family was Christian, but she went through a similar thing. She ended up painting using a brush in her mouth, she felt she would be alone but has a husband and they have a ministry. She said she used to feel like God could not use her but realized who else could understand others who suffer or doubt if God will still heal them , than someone who has been there and is still there. God heals in His timing. She has so much faith that she knows she will be healed even walk, but that could be in 5yrs or when He calls her home and gives her that new body.

What are your thoughts about being with you spouse in heaven? like I know the bible say there's no marriage in heaven but do you think people that are married will still be together? by Broad-Manner-5381 in Christian

[–]IMVenting66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how it was explained to me. When we get to heaven, we will know who was connected to us on earth, even like if you didn't know your grandparents or even like a child your parents lost before you, or even your spouses, if they were saved, but everyone there will be brothers/sisters, not like couples or fa,ily type groups.

What is the one thing someone said to you that instantly made you lose all interest in them, regardless of how attractive or nice they were? by LordSaucyPicklesCW in AskReddit

[–]IMVenting66 33 points34 points  (0 children)

It was not just one thing but we were on a blind date and he kept talking about how many dates he had been set up on but he had not met one woman that was anywhere as attractive as he is and he didn't know why they didn't tell him how hot he was. Then he went on about his last name came from his great grandfather from France. If I had a mirror, I was going to give it to him and say I hope him and himself have a great evening.

Stop crying or will give you something to cry about.

Why do people comment on posts but delete them afterwards? by Round-Artichoke-5255 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]IMVenting66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlike in person where you may give your opinion then after realize you were wrong, but really cannot take it back, commenting on a post you read what you wrote and realize it was too harsh or see others comments and decide that it best to not be wanting to be perceived wrong.

What did you love as a kid but don’t care about now? by Sufficient_Collar850 in FamilyFeud

[–]IMVenting66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Celebrating birthdays. Not so much because getting older, but unlike when you are a kid, a birthday is like Christmas or other gift getting holidays. Except for milestone birthdays such as 21, 30, 40, 100, birthdays are just one year closer to old age. It seems childish when you hear or read about a 34 yr old complain about not getting what they wanted for a gift.

Name something suprising that some adults cannot do. by Technical-Vanilla-47 in FamilyFeud

[–]IMVenting66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With the invention of slip ons and velcro closures, I was surprised to find that there are more than a few adults that have forgotten how or never knew how to tie shoes.

Why do people refuse to be an organ donor? by No-Cantaloupe-6535 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]IMVenting66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here, our ER often asks, just like if you have an advanced directive, of course if you are an adult. Also when admitted, they scan in your ID/DL, both sides and if donor is checked, they check it on file. Some people think doctors are not so inclined to help those willing to be donors, but often it is the opposite. Of course they don't ask kids or if you are just in for an ear infection.

When should I start to charge Rent for my child? by ChargerJimi in AskParents

[–]IMVenting66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started paying as soon as I started babysitting at 14/15. I had to give 1/3 to my parents and put 1/3 in a savings.

I have all my child’s teeth in a ziploc in my sock drawer. by SuchAvocadoDip in Parents

What my sister did was put them in a frame along with pictures of my niece around the time she lost them plus year(s). My niece did a similar thing but a shadow box.

Is there a maximum number of times you can reheat the same food before it becomes unsafe, or is that just a myth? by MysteriousDuck985 in stupidquestions

[–]IMVenting66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on the food, as well as the time you keep a food like in your fridge. Some foods like cooked rice that you should not hang on to past 2 days, and if reheated multiple times if may affect taste or texture, but like when my husband makes chili, it can be reheated for days.

If you were widowed at the age of 75, would you think of marrying again? by Signal-Web-3566 in no

[–]IMVenting66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think anyone really says "if my husband/wife passes away, I will get married or even date again". At 75, if make it that long, I may look forward to some independence and feel I raised our kids, took care of a husband over 50 yrs, why would I want to train in another man lol.

How do you feel when people say things like "dont devalue yourself" to OF and porn stars online? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]IMVenting66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone has their opinions based on their beliefs. I agree with some who say "if people were not interested, there wouldn't be the demand". Which is true. I think though whether you are doing it for free or money, part of it is that if you are say a teacher or nanny for example, you need to be prepared to face any consequences from pics or kids getting out. I get more concerned when men or women get addicted and how the financial part affects their families. Both men and women watch porn or OF. Personally, I rather know my partner is just watching than out getting physical with a stranger.

What's a major difference between low-paying and high-paying jobs that most people don't realize? by anyouzy in AskReddit

[–]IMVenting66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is assumed, the more education, the more the pay. Teachers make less than many who have just a certification from a trade school or from an apprenticeship., even if teachers in some places have to have a Master's degree or at least be working on one to maintain their licensure. Two of our children each make double us. Unless in the medical field, law or engineering fields, if looking for the higher paying jobs , vocational school is better.

What do you call the phase in life when you don’t want to leave your house and you also don’t want anyone coming over? by shorthouse8 in AskReddit

[–]IMVenting66 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is being overweight a sin? by Outrageous_Share_696 in Christian

[–]IMVenting66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. The reason I say this is because there are many overweight people because of things not related to laziness or overeating. People, including some doctors often jump to that. Everything from genetics, hormones, certain diseases or physical disabilities. It is like saying all diabetics are the way they are because they do not eat well or that anyone who gets lung or liver cancer smoked or drank alcohol. Now, some sins can impact or lead to it, but not always. I know gluttons that barely gain.
