Christian Chat

@ENKELI Thank you understanding. Yes i 'm okay. As a matter of fact better than i been most of my life. The rage has been dying for weeks already and is basically gone, at least it is getting easier and easier to break away from even triggered badly.

Gospel of John 20:21 (NIV):

“Again Jesus said, ‘Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.’”

This happens after Jesus has risen from the dead and appears to His disciples while they are afraid and hiding. He speaks peace over them, then gives them purpose and direction.

Jesus meets His followers in their fear with peace, not condemnation. Then He reminds them they still have a calling and purpose ahead. 💚

@heartathome Thanks so very much for that lovely Bite, from my perspective i pray i may be however small my imprint. Jesus is my all time HERO!

He got me out! Set me FREE to be me. How can i retell such Joy of being? But i know i will try. Jesus deserves not only praise but recognition the good He does in believers hearts, that is for sure.

@heartathome again and again, I need to return to simple basic precepts. Thank you for

“Again Jesus said, ‘Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.’”

@DownMoreThanUp Good luck with your writing and counselling and working through your feelings regarding your wife. It can be very difficult to know when the right time is to open the floodgates into our pain and suffering.

@ENKELI Love you lady.

@Realness I hope your time with family goes well. I love your steady neutral dedication to sharing the word. Thanks for being you.

@AuntGlow I am glad you had those moment in the chapel. I have been fortunate to have spent a lot of time in beautiful big and old churches. The architecture evolved for containment of the sounds of singers and musicians within the walls. Somehow it keeps me in touch with a sense of beauty and goodness, but also physics. lol Sorry Ever the nerdy bird.

@tyme I valued the Lamentations as well

I had another funeral this week, of a good man, a retired minister. My church is losing its good people, slowly. It is the way of things, but I am blessed to have met another person who cared about the ways of the Lord. They encourage and inspire us.

@Appleblossom I love you too, gorgeous.

After speaking with my sister in Christ for almost 2 hours on Thursday I am encouraged to go back to the church I used to attend, which is the same one she attends. I need the strength and motivation to go back but I know I am missing out on so much not attending.

I hope you have a nice day planned tomorrow, I am making lunch for my mum, along with my brother and bestie who is like a second daughter to mum. Mum will have set the table with her Royal Doulton tableware and silver cutlery. She likes to tizz things up 🙂

@ENKELI

Glad you will have a fancy table with your mum. Enjoy it to the fullest with brother and bestie.

Churches are struggling and shifting. Having a spiritual family or caring congregation is ideal, so I hope it works out goin back to your old church. Find your way. Often there are changes with some people leaving and new people coming and the subtle energy and power dynamics shift.

At a funeral of a retired minister last week, a lady who had a clash with me offered an olive branch. I said olive branch gratefully accepted. We will see how things unfold.All I can do is pray and keep trying.

Life sends us so many challenges.

God Bless

A real downer for me today, not much sleep either, been really bad. lots of dark thoughts. And so frustrating on my own.Sympathetic ear gone. Need to process it on my own. Not wanting to down as.

Thinking of everyone here today @DownMoreThanUp @Appleblossom @heartathome @ENKELI @Realness

@Appleblossom Gosh, I know - the architecture is not only visually stunning but the acoustics are magical. 🤩

ALWAYS nerd out, I love it hehe

Do you have a favourite cathedral or chapel/church you have been to?

@ENKELI I am so sorry you have been unwell and that you have had some tough days lately... how is study feeling? I know you weren't feeling so sure about it for a bit there?

I completely agree, this chapel was rich with history - the whole building was!

Ah, I feel like there is a story there, but only if you feel like sharing (always keen to learn more about you!) 🥰

It would be so, so tough not feeling heard @DownMoreThanUp. I can hear she is experiencing a lot of pain and hurt as well, and I can absolutely see how hard therapy has been for you both... sitting with conflicting vulnerabilities can be so incredibly challenging.

I am proud of you both for trying.

It sounds like you have been doing all that you can to show up and make changes, and I am so sorry to hear that things haven't unfolded in the ways your heart hoped they would. Choosing to let go of someone we love is not easy and I can't imagine how painful this has all been for you.

Could this be a goodbye for now, but not forever?

💛
