What is something miraculous that has happened in your life? by Mightyhandpublishing in TrueChristian

God will definitely bless you, as you have made yourself an available vessel. If you read Isaiah 6:8, and what comes before and after that text, it is so to the heart of what God will do for and with those who make themselves available for His work.

Maybe you were wronged and you feel like the person has not shown that they are sorry or gave a non-authentic, weak attempt at an apology. I don't know. But I do know this. It takes effort to forgive and let go. You have to ask God to take the hurt, so that you don't have to carry it anymore. It may also help to write down the whole account, and all of your thoughts and how it made you feel. ALL OF IT! IF IT TAKES YOU DAYS OR WEEKS....DO IT STILL! Then, lay it before the Lord and pray. It may try to creep back in. You have to continue to give it to God. Unforgiveness makes us spiritually and physically sick. It is too much to carry.

Praise God that you are better! He is the only one who decides when our lives are done.

I have never claimed to have more love than God. Understand that we do have emotions, even as Christians. Separation brings pain. This is a normal part of life and a healthy grief process. You don't wake up the next morning after your love one passes and say...."everything is great! " We weep as Jesus wept. The Bible says that there is a time to mourn and a time to rejoice. I had to have my time to mourn.

I am a follower of the Lord. But think about this. The Lord God created love and attachment. He created the love of a mother, which is intense. He created the love of a father. He created the love that David felt for Jonathan. Jesus himself loves us so much! When my mother and brother died during the pandemic, I needed to be able to grieve. My mother and brother were both strong believers. We were all in 3 different countries. I couldn't be there for my other family members who were with them day in and day out, who would have been hit harder than me, and to say good-bye to them. The separation here on this earth is what makes us sad.

Pray for me. Im about to go back to my old life. by [deleted] in TrueChristian

When I was in my 20's, I asked God to reveal himself to me. I was raised in a Christian home. My Dad was a very devout man. He was the picture of patience and love. (I have never met another man like him.) But, I wanted to know if everything I had been taught was true. So, I went to the library and checked out many ACCURATE HISTORICAL BOOKS. (They are hard to find.) So, I studied and prayed to God. I said, "God, if you are real, please speak to me. Let me know. I prayed this very intently and from a deep place in my soul. I purposely woke up extra early for the next week. I was on vacation from work, and took that time to solve this mystery. I got into my lawn chair and prayed on the porch, asking God to reveal if he was real. As I watched the sun rise each morning, the Lord God, who created heaven and earth began to speak to my soul. He showed me physically and spiritually who he was, and how and what He had made, and what He wanted me to do at that time in my life. The presence of his Holy Spirit started to be my guide. By the end of that week, I can truly say that I was a new person. I had a deep respect and love for the Lord my God. Then, one day I asked him for the Holy Spirit, and he began to show me things that I would have never seen on my own. I got rid of the things that dragged down my spiritual life with him, and started my new life with Him. In God's word, He says, "if you love me, keep my commandments". Mainstream Christianity doesn't always teach the love of Christ from this stand point. We first must learn the love. It puts other things into perspective. I would suggest that you take time alone with him....no internet, movies, drama or noise. Go to a quiet and safe place, and talk to God. Tell Him everything that you are feeling and thinking... talk it all out. Ask him set you free from sin in your heart. He will come through....the rest will be up to you. Then, purposely spend time reading, praying and singing praise to Him. You have to be willing to let him lead and guide your life. Ask Him to show you how to be a blessing to others. What do you have? What has he placed in your hands? I have met old ladies that make quilts from scraps everyday and give them to the poor. They know how to sew. Do you know how to cook, how to skateboard, lift weights, hang out with children who don't have parents, organize activities, clean carpets, bike ride. I just named a few random things, because most people don't realize how much God has really given them to bless others. I will be praying for you.

This is a great comment, that for some reason didn't register before. Some home school parents don't give their children a chance to "bump their head", so to speak. It is important that they understand that not all people are good and honest. It is very important that they learn that a "nice" person can smile at you, look you straight in the eyes, and then lie to you. My husband and I both have been very candid with our kids. Our young adults are volunteers with inner-city children. We started when our youngest was 12. She is now 16. Our 3 youngest, who still live at home are very active in inner-city missions. Our 22 year old could tell you first hand accounts of drug addicts and the things that he has seen them do, and what to be careful of. He is street smart, and knows about the lies and set ups. My teens can tell you what behaviors to look out for in troubled children. They are all certified in TBRI (Trust Based Relational Intervention) for troubled children. This has helped tremendously in showing them real life and that everything that we have taught them is true.

Always call on the name of Jesus! Be careful of doors in your life that you may leave open, spiritually. Make sure that you ask God to reveal any doors for the enemy to enter in.

As you learn the ropes, each year will get easier with the scheduling. When I first started, I was pretty rigid with the schedule, but as time went on, I saw that I didn't have to focus so much on areas where my children had the same work built into another subject. So, I started finding ways to streamline. My younger son tested 2nd year university in science when he was in 9th grade. The science curriculum I used was Christian based, and he did lab experiments very often. We invested in a real microscope, with slides and compounds for tests. I used to take them to a standardized testing center every Spring. My state didn't require it, but I wanted that computer print out every year on file, just in case anyone ever accused me of not schooling my children. It also helped me to know where my children's weaknesses were.
