  1. Love your gentle, tender heart. Happy Easter!

  2. Long time, no see! Hope all is well with you and yours. Bless you!

  3. Happy Valentines, sweetie!

  4. I think it looks really good and festive!
  5. Thanks for being my friend!

  6. Yes, about a year and a half ago I had some mental healing that was unexpected, though very welcome. A year or more before that happened, I lost a beloved pet and blamed my husband for allowing that to happen. I was very angry with him and held my anger by shutting him out of my life in several ways. I do not recall asking God to help me with this situation, except that I had acknowledged to God that I knew I needed to be kinder to my husband. The healing experience happened in the middle of the night one night while I was half asleep. All of a sudden I felt a sensation of just letting all the anger go and a peacefulness taking its place. I really don't believe that I had taken any sustained action (such as prayer or "believing") to cause this. The anger never returned. I do believe this event was God working in my life, just in an unexpected and unrequested way.
  7. That sure is what people at my church do. Thanks for the verse references!
  8. does anyone else ever cry in church? I find myself tearing up almost every time. Especially during the altar calls, sometimes during the singing or sermon. Not sure if it is joy or sadness. Just really gets to me when I see people going down the aisle to get prayed for or baptised. yes, even though I was in twi for about 20 years, I did get baptised by immersion recently after much thought.
  9. also the lead singer from Sawyer Brown reminds me of Dan Moran. BTW - this video was featured as part of the sermon at my church today!
  10. That song "I Can Only Imagine" must have been inspired by God, because it has had a huge impact (from what I have heard from MercyMe itself and from what I heard from secular radio stations that played it). Give their other songs a listen, the band is pretty good. Their new CD is called "Coming Up to Breathe" and has a whole lot more to it than the average contemporary Christian music/lyrics. And whatever happened with Ken McCaw? He was supposed to be headed for writing movie scores last time I heard quite a few years ago.
  11. I haven't heard anyone on this thread mention love. Although I only met Mrs. W. a few times, I would bet that there was a strong love in their marriage - at very least on her part. That colors a lot of a person's thoughts about their spouse, so perhaps she was not as aware of VPW's misdeeds to others as we think she was and was willing to put up with his mistreatment of herself.
  12. I know the Bible Lands tour was in 85, is there another thread for that event or time period? And when was the dedication of the Word Over the World Auditorium? I think that must have been in this time period.
  13. And the best way to forgive ourselves is to know that God has forgiven us if we have asked Him.
  14. I recall that the gift ministries came before the ordination - one had to have the gift and then be ordained. And I know of at least one person who was a Corps grad, definitely had a gift ministry or two and was not ordained. Seems to me very evident that the ordination was a formality that was optional. No opinion about HA, though.
