Christian Chat

Good Morning family of God. Love that scripture @Former-Member - thanks for the reminder. That's one amazing thing having faith. Never really alone. Interesting one of Jesus' last words in the flesh were "I am always with you" (or something to that affect) And He left us "A comforter" which I see as a kinda communication device, undectable by the world (safe) so He can always be there. it's not in my nature to be so resilient with my faith in Jesus, through everything, so I see it as a gift from God (my mustard seed) because He knew I'd need it, to get this far. Always prompted to believe 💜

@Former-Member

@Eve7Thank you.

@Shaz51 @Bow @Former-Member

It seems my journey is to work through the institutionalised aspects of church and state. Oddly or not so oddly, the good people I come in contact with these days are still strongly influenced by Christianity, and not all in one place under one roof ...

Keep Well

My true friends have similar influences @Appleblossom

Hope you can enjoy your day

Today is sad for me because the police presence on Djab Warrung country is huge and many are arrested and suffering. I will not let it destroy me. It confirms my attitudes about rampant pseudo progress.

I value all the good wishes and return in kind. @Eve7

That is really sad @Appleblossom and should never have been allowed to occur.

My nephew’s placenta was planted by a Jacaranda tree even though it’s not a native tree, it was special to my sister and I would protest if it was going to be removed.

😢

That is an empowering act by your nephews mother. @Eve7

I apologise if my post about the indigenous Birthing tree and surrounds was off topic. For me I see it as all connected. My immigrant maternal Grandmother made a Tree of Life Wall hanging and my paternal grandmother travelled by train along the path where the protests are. She travelled in great shame as a young pregnant unmarried woman to give up her baby, my father. He and I never met more Australian family, so my connections are through other forms ... their is the landform called the pregnant woman pointing towards the trees ... all symbolic. I also studied Terrain Analysis in unimelb field trips in the area ... so that is my story.

Dr EOR recommends a pajama day or two for you, ------ ohhh yessss my awesome friend @Former-Member , that is what I need xx

Hello and hugs @Appleblossom , @Eve7 , @Former-Member , @Bow

Big hugs back for you @Shaz51 let’s do pjs tomorrow

💙🤗💙

ohhh yessss my @Eve7

I had a yucky day yesterday and when I woke up at 4:30 this morning and felt just as yuck, I knew today was going to be tough. My thoughts were not good and I was spiralling quick.

My relationship with God ain’t been the best this year or so, I’ve felt really disconnected from him and distant. Even though I’ve questioned my faith a lot, I’m certain that I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for him.

Anyhow, in the middle of my spiralling early this morning, my daughter who sleeps in until 8am comes in for a snuggle at 5:30. Just the distraction I needed and reminder that even though I don’t feel it much, he is here.

It reminded me of this canvas I did a little while ago. Hope everyone has a good day
