Thank each one for responding to my posts.
It is painful to sit a long time so I have a laptop computer on an overbed table and can lie flat in bed to use it. It's operating system is Vista and a grand new feature is an on-screen keyboard. Using the mouse pointer for each letter is slow but better than not being able to participate in the forum. ???
Shalom,
dessa

Dessa,
I am really glad that you have joined us here at our forum. I am a technology geek by trade and I am very inspired by your embracing of new technologies so that you can participate with us. Thank you for your post as well.
I just wanted to add a couple of things... I had made a list awhile back of various truths I have learned since studying on Bible-Truths... a couple of more than I didn't see mentioned so far:
First is the physical and then comes the spiritual
Jesus taught in parables only
No Scripture its OWN interpretation
Those are just a couple of more that mean a lot to me... I have a big list of truths and heresies and as I study I jot down verses that proves or disproves them. I feel there is already a life-times worth of study on Bible-Truths...
I'm glad you found us Dessa.

Why are you bed ridden? (assumption?) What is your diagnosis? If this question is too personal then please forgive me for asking...
Peace to you

Good Food.
Realizing that I didn't come to Christ but that HE called ME was a big big jolt!!
Realizing nothing I have done has been of me but of Him who lives in me! (ha. I actually thought I was a good Christian, mother, wife, teacher, daughter, neighbor etc etc. HA again)
Which leads me to pride! Folks I think it is a Biggie!!! It is ALL Him and His will.
I was at dinner w/ several divorced girlfriends.(I am their token). They wondered why I was married 34 years and not them. I said I don't know. They said Well, you must have done something right. I said No, I don't do anything right. It is Jesus in me Who does anything good. They all started yakking at once so I backed off! It still came off sounding like I was special or better or something!
If anyone has clues to how best answer something like that let me know.
Don't know if anyone is still reading this thread--if not it has been good for me to rethink some of these things.
Cheerio!

Hi G
I can relate!
Lately I have been considering how to stop talking the talk of the world. I deal with the publicand lately it has been grating on my nerves that people ask "How are you?" which is so insincere and such hypocrisy! To answer with the standard reply "Fine thank you." for me says nothing and means less!
I have been thinking that every word we say we will give an account for to The Lord. So now, I am saying in response to this worldly hypocritical question " how are you"...I reply with a big smile " ...Trials and tribulations!" ;D I am still in practise mode though...I have not yet got passed the habit of worldly language fully enough and when I answer fine thank you I cringe thinking that the Beast just answered and so I repent.... :(
I think the answer to your friends was in His Spirit in honestly and sincerity.
Peace to you
Arcturus :)
