melonsbrain I totally agree with you. Psalm 188:24 - "This is the day that the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it." It is always amazing that He gave us a new day, a new day to praise Him and walk with Him!

melonsbrain As it says in Genesis 1 and 2 where it gives an account of how God created the earth and man. Very true! And not only did He give us physical life, but He also gave us spiritual life so that we may spend eternity with Him. How amazing is that?!!!!

melonsbrain This happens to me a lot. There are many times when I want something, yet God will say "wait" or "not now". There are also other times when He says "no" because He has something else in store for me.

melonsbrain Amen brother! It is such a blessing to know our Savior cares for us! It is such a praise that your friends and family continually prayed for you. And it is even better that Christ continually knocked on your door, just waiting for you to open it up for Him!

melonsbrain It all comes down to trust. Do you really trust him? I mean completely trust him? Sure, we all hurt one another at times unintentionally. But do you trust him enough to know that he won't intentionally hurt you? If you can say "yes, I trust him", then don't...
