Happy Father's Day to all. If you don't have a father here on earth, God is our Heavenly Father. He wants to fill each of our deepest desires for security and a sense of belonging with His LOVE. His PEACE. He wants us to understand as much as our human minds can understand, His UNCONDITIONAL LOVE He has for us!!!

This is 4th of July weekend and celebration for the US. It is a time of gatherings of family and friends for picnics and BBQ's. Also, at night, firework displays.
Many of us don't even know what is really being celebrated. Christians often take it for granted the freedom we have in the US. We are seeing more and more persecution of our beliefs though. It is OK to talk about God but not about our faith in Jesus in public like it was years ago. We need to pray for our country, our leaders, our families and ourselves; that we will put God first. __________________

Thoughts anyone...
Dating While Being a Fat Single Christian in Church Feels Like a Sin Thought it was an interesting read and the lady kind of has a point, some people in church can be most judgmental, hypocritical people out there... __________________

Never doubt yourself, you can't let the enemy win. My late Mother would always say pray for a husband, but pray that God's Will handle finding a match.
Psalms 56:9 .......This one thing I know: God is for me! __________________

Yes, it is very sad to see how people act who attend church regularly and are judgmental. Remember...churches are for sick people in need of God/Jesus in their lives, not healthy spiritual people who act like perfect saints all the time.
Although not really healthy to be overweight as a male or female...to be judged as being sinful isn't the issue. Yes gluttony is a sin and being overweight is more of a public display of over eating and not exercising enough. Getting pregnant out or wedlock is another sin that is public. Again, the woman gets judged but often when the father of the baby isn't named...the woman is even in more trouble with the church. So sad when love and acceptance is what's needed. __________________

that isn't right the the women get the public blame...
I get told healthy spiritually people who judge are still sinful and judging people is a sin -- then then I reply back "they should think about the persons feelings before judging them: |

That we are in the "end times" and that history is repeating itself. God doesn't want us to kill one another as individuals and yet sometimes he calls us to fight in wars and kill groups of people. We are to LOVE others as we love ourselves. We aren't to agree with what everybody does or says but to love them in such a way that we show respect in how we treat them as individuals as long as we aren't needing to break God's laws to accomplish that. Or the laws of the land.
What about you, Dave??? __________________
