hello
jennie:
God love your sweet sister and her baby. You know He does. The blessings He gives out of our tragedies is just amazing! We are here where we are to help one another and I agree that we are the persecuted church instead of those in buildings. I truly don't mean to sound so judgemental. I think it has been so recently that my eyes and heart have been opened that the pain of the opening is still here but I know as I chat and learn from all of you, my brothers and sisters in Christ , my healing has begun! Much love and a good night's rest to all, Jennie

It doesn't always feel that way so I have to remind myself of that a lot! The life inside the church was so hard. The most hurtful thing was the people being ashamed of the abuse I went through as a child. they were ashamed of having their pastor's wife with this background. Seems like brothers and sisters in Christ should accept one another. Anyway.... ya'll have blessed me so much just this far and I can't wait to spend this time with ya'll!
The wind is blowing hard through our mountains today and is so lovely to hear as it sings through the trees.Love to all.....

Jennie,
Glad you are back, didn't know you had gone anywhere, ;). Your message above touched my heart.
Jesus came to save the lost(Apollemi) and God chose the foolish things of this World according to his
purpose(Boulema) and unlike the above, we fully accept you, because it's Gods Will that we have the
desire to do so. Your " friends " from the Church mentioned above might benefit by reading the Bible's
account of Mary Magdalene, who had seven Demons(Luke chapter 8), who had the privelege to help
with ministering to Our Lord. They should remember Zacchaeus the Tax collector, who everbody disliked
for his dishonest ways who Jesus told " This day salvation has come to this house, because he also is a
Son of Abraham. "
Yes, we, the Brothers and Sisters of this Site, along with our teacher Ray, are the refuse of this World
and we are glad you are here and as Ray stated in his letter to James Kennedy on page 3, " While we
are STILL sinners, Christ died for our sakes."
Kind Regards, Samson; :)
Linny:
Bless your heart Jennie. I worked for 6 years on a Child Psych Unit with abused children. My husband was emotionally but not physically abused. It is a heartbreaking world. How the church could be part of that continuation of pain just shows how blind the church really is. :-\
You are welcome and much loved here! So glad you have returned.
From your references in your posts I am picturing you in the mountains of Tennessee. Am I close?
We live in the very small hills of Kentucky! :D
Blessings, Lin

Jennie......when I first started reading Ray's papers I started to understand why I went through all the things I had to go through in my young life. It helped me to move forward knowing that everyhing that happened was not because God hated me or that I was being punished. The scripture in Ecc 1:13 "an experience of evil has God given the sons (and daughters) of man to humble them by".....I have been humbled and there is pretty much not alot I had not been through. But I can now praise my Lord and Savior that things have happened to me.....it gives me a greater understanding to peoples hurts and I am able to to give love in return.
Love
Heidi
