Hello to all,

 This is a hard thing for me to do but I feel I must.

 As most of you know I left here and before leaving I deleted every post I had ever made and also deleted every thread I had started. There was a reason why and I will get to that later.

 First of all I ask that all of you that posted in those threads please forgive me. There were some very good responses and I deeply apologize for doing that. I was upset and am going through some rough times right now but that is no excuse for what I did.

 There was an accusation made towards me and I acted a fool. Instead of handling that situation in a Christ like way, I handled the situation in a very carnal way. Words sometimes get said when we are dealing with each other and the sad thing is that those words can never be taken back. Our actions(mine) also work the same way. My words and actions were inexcusable and I am the one who has to live with that.

 Now concerning the one who made that accusation towards me and my response to that. I ask for your forgiveness and I should have handled that with love and patient. That too I will have to live with also.

Matthew 5:22-24

 22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

 23 Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;

 24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

 I have learned a valuable lesson. That being, that God, and He only, knows my heart. Things are going to be said to me or about me and at times are not going to be pleasant. I am learning that it is a soft answer that I should give and realizing that as long as I am following Christ, there are going to be situations like this along the way.

 I am not perfect and I still have a very long way to go. You can say and think what you will about me, talk is cheap and I don’t mind as long as I am following the example of Christ. To be more like Him is all that matters.

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Love to you all,

bobby

Hello, Bobby.
Welcome back my brother, we have missed you.

Hi Bobby!

You are so right. We, as humans, tend to act before we think and then someone gets hurt.

What we all should do is pray and ask God to give us edifying words to build up instead of using words to tear someone down. Tearing down just creates division in the body of Christ and promotes hatred, bitterness, and strife.

REMEMBER: WORDS ARE LIKE STONES. THEY HURT.

Love in Christ,
Ruth

P.S. nice to see you on here again bobby.

brothertoall:
