While reading the posts and meditation on the Word of God through all the questions asked I could not help but start to feel my chest rise with love for all of you. We are all seeking to understand and grow to a better knowledge by the grace of God.
I do not know any of you and yet I do? I do not know how you look like, except for the few who had their photies take and the conference! An ordinary bunch of people. That made me happy as well, I do not know what I was expecting you all to look like, but praise God, you did not have halo's or something. Just the average bloke down the road.
So this writing is for all of you. I love you and take pride in being part of this family. I pray that God will enable me to persevere to the end and to spiritually grow with all of you. May God bless all of you and protect you.

Heidi,
That was very nice of you to say. I have to agree with you. Sometimes I wonder where would I be and what would I do if I didn't have this forum to turn to when I need encouragement or guidance. No one close to me understands where I am in this journey and they are not on it with me. So, ditto to your post.

Back to you Heidi,
This is really the place i come to everyday for solace, refuge, fellowship, encouragement and yes Love. We
all have Families or friends who love us but think we are strange beasts. They are right because we are
strangers now in a strange land that gets more alien to us daily as we grow in the Truth and knowledge
of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
So yes, back to you Heidi with Love :-* ;D

I don't know, Heidi. I seem to have a halo every time my picture is taken. But I think it's the gray and a receding hairline rather than some brand of holiness. Overhead lights or flash make optical illusions.
Anyway, I echo your sentiments and value this forum tremendously.

Glad you Love Me Heidi!!
I mean you were just talking to me right! ;)
You could have sent this in a pm instead of letting the whole world know about your love for me.
Leave it to me to ruin a good post! ;D
I hope you stay here for a long time sister!

Heidi,
Thankyou for this wonderfull Post. Although I don't know for an absolute certainty that everyone's motive is the total desire in seeking Truth, I share the feeling that it seems to be the case.
It's true as mentioned in previous posts of the past, some " might " be religious hobbyists and Why would I say such a thing, because when first leaving my former denomination of twenty years while examining other Scriptural views, I proceeded with caution and care, not wanting to be deceived again. This would classify me as initially being a Religious Hobbyist and skeptic. Not skeptical about the inspiration of the Scriptures and belief in God, but skeptical about what an imperfect man or Organization might tell me what is " TRUTH ", so after leaving a Religion that claimed to have God's " truth " and be his Spokesmen, I planned to just read the Bible, study on my own, research on my own and do the best I could.
How things change, but then again, I've always been a Truth seeker at the expense of applying myself to a better secular professional life. Some might ask, Well, was it worth it and My reply would be. ABSOLUTELY and under the same circumstances and genetic makeup---- I would do it again because it was Gods' Will for me.

Heidi, it’s wonderful to hear how you feel about us all. After I read your thread I could not help but to think of that scripture that says Love one another as I have loved you.
Thank you again Heidi for the heart felt words of a wonderful sister in the Lord like you Heidi. :) :) :)
Your friend and brother in the Lord. Richard.

Thank you Heidi for the beautiful insight and love you share with us. I agree we're very blessed to have one another as we travel on this sometimes lonely road. I really feel like we're a family.
Very funny Antaiwan! ;D ;D
Love in Christ,
Vangie
