FrugalMommy I have a few general long-term goals, but I haven't put a lot of thought into fleshing them out yet. There are a lot of short-term things that are standing in the way, like paying off our credit cards, and I really need to get those taken care of before I try...

or has given this person a sign, how do you tell if they are speaking the truth? Does it matter if it's a preacher, your mom or the guy who sits in the back at McDonald's all the time? Do you think people get direct signs or words...

aubrey I don't know if there is someone in our generation who literally hears from God or they hear his audible voice. I read Christian books and people say God says to them these things but it seems they did not actually hear it. They look for signs or they feel...

Andrealoves7and8 I would say that I don't believe them. Check to see if they have been on drugs or if they have been drinking alcohol. Check to see if they are physically and mentally healthy because I find it hard to believe that God talks to people. Why would God only talk...

Super Shames Hi blummus. Well I might not be the qualified person to say this. But I think it can be better explained by a psychiatrist. One thing is for sure that our mind is a mysterious being on its own. The way it reacts to different situations is very mysterious...

clrumfelt I believe God speaks to us through the Bible, sometimes through circumstances, sometimes through ideas, sometimes through other people. God can speak to us however he wants. He used a donkey to speak to Balaam in the Old Testament. I believe some people get...

girl_thinking I have a colleague at work who said that she is not ready for marriage right now because she is still supporting her siblings' schooling. So I guess responsibility is one of the key factors that affect people's take on marriage. Those who are still attached to...

ZoeJoy I don't see the point in watching other people's problems, fights and arguments. Anything on TV has probably been edited and screened. So, if it is on TV, then it is no longer 'real life'. I prefer talking to people in 'real life' and being able to meet...

Karen Waterson First of all if someone says that God spoke to them, I would want to know what was said to them, as if it didn't come from the bible, then I just won't believe it. People have to understand, that the dvil talks to people too, but we all know that when he...
