I was green, she was green...I got scared and she got greener...lol! I hear that green people should stick to geldings, not mares...lol! Too late, I don't live on enough property anymore, and she soured me pretty good for horses :)

I had a horse...got rid of her before I got bucked off, after seeing everybody else get bucked off...lol! And after her chasing me out of the field a couple of times, kicking me a couple of times...yup, I'll stick to chickens and leave the horses to the true horsewomen :P

Many places in the Bible it says to forgive...as you have been forgiven. I was forgiven through repentance. I don't know about you all :) But then there are other verses that aren't very clear...perhaps it is just a given, forgive those who are repentant...after all, that is the only way to...

When the Bible talks about forgiveness in *this* passage, it is talking about forgiveness to the *repentant*...and towards our brothers and sisters. I always assumed our brothers and sisters in Christ? And if they are true believers, then they will give true repentance. We should be always...

There are certain people I forgive, but then avoid at all cost. I don't think we need to deal with that person, we just need to forgive them in our hearts, but it doesn't mean we have to invite them for dinner and allow them the chance to do it all over again, especially with some types of...

I think more people need to know this. Think about it, we are all Christians, and we all have a past...some more intense than others... But when someone is looking for God, and they walk in to a church full of people who are all dressed up, acting their best...they must feel really out of...

@shortgrass Your posts are such a Blessing to me these days!! I just want you to know that God has been using you to speak to me...and most likely others! You're a ray of sunshine in ways I cannot really explain yet! lol!

I hate to say it, but I don't think we can altogether avoid it...that would make us without sin...but I do know that we are saved by grace and that we can grow from our mistakes. Not by making the same ones over and over, but new ones will come...just when I think I'm doing great I get...

You got that right shortgrass! The wilderness is no fun at all. 10 years was enough for me. Jake, it just hurts and steals your joy, and a whole lot of other things.

I don't even know what I was looking for, I was just rebelling against the preacher...and I only hurt myself in the process. It is a long story...lol! Love the visual aid! lol!

It's an amazing journey!

@shortgrass I think my journey probably wasn't so long because I knew God before...I just had to know Him for myself...not from someone else cramming it down my throat lol! And I had NO IDEA what the world was all about as sheltered as my Brethren upbringing was. But I was a very curious...

shortgrass...peaks and valleys is right. I am a preachers daughter...lets just say I lived up to the stereotype for too many years...filled myself with enough guilt and shame that I'm still shaking it off and have to daily remind myself to just trust God :) But God is good! It's been many...
