thank you!

What does this mean exactly and how do you do it? Thanks!

THANKS to everybody for their thoughts and prayers. I will look at the manual transcript when you get it or if you still want my add. I will give that to you as well. I did have an awesome father and was definetly a daddy's girl, but he was taken from me to soon. I feel some of the decisions I have made, she is suffering from now. I have always been afraid of her looking for a fathers attention in the wrong way. Thanks again!!

Hi all, I hve a teenage daughter who I am raising alone. I have the help of grandparents of course, but it would help if she had ever had a father, who really cared about her. Her dad and I divorced when she was 9 and she will be 16 next month. She has been terribly hurt that her dad, doesn't want anything to do with her. He only calls when he wants something and that is only to her older brother or his own father. She has seen him only once in 6 1/2 years. She no longer refers to him as her dad. I blame alot of what is going on, on that and the fact she is a hormonal teenager. She likes a guy that is too old for her and is doing things out of character for her. I am worried about what all of this will bring and do not want her to get so serious with this guy. I am having to get mean about it now and she is barely speaking to me. We all cannot be around her to watch her every move. I also do not want to to anything that will drive her straight to him. I am just really praying that she will turn to God more and let him fill the holes in her heart. Really exasperated her and a lil scared. Thanks.

WOW!! I was just browsing thru the site and came across this. It was something I really needed and reminded me that there is a purpose in every circumstance. It also encouraged me in my own situation, to look at GOD and not the situation or circumstance. I have been getting alot of messages about restoration, hope, letting HIM have it all and not to do it myself. Esther has been coming to mind alot here lately and I have been having to say, whatever happens, happens, and leave it with HIM. Even now just reading this, again about Esther's story, I felt strengthened. Everything comes at a time when you truly need it. Thanks everyone for being so open and sharing.

Hi all, Was wondering why, in a dream, people sometimes look younger than they are IRL. Everything else can be the same as it would be right this minute, but they may be or look younger. Thanks.

Thank You!

I have a situation I have been praying over and every time I come to some peace about it, I get in turmoil. I was doing okay and believing God to be in control of it all. I had a dream last night and I woke up in turmoil over it and was not at peace anymore. This is kinda long, but I feel that the background is needed for better understanding. The situation is this. I was dating a guy that pursued me. I did not want to get anything started because I was okay and did not want to get hurt again. We have alot of the same friends and are close to them all. They were all telling me what a great guy he is and I found out that he had even asked for help from a mutual friend to help win me over. Well we dated for a month and 1/2. I was starting to like him and starting to let my guard down. Even his closest friends thought that he was really liking me. I know enough about the guy to know he has been terribly hurt in the past, by several relationships. Well things seemed to be going along nicely and then all of a sudden he says this ain't gonna work. He gave me no reason other than I have done nothing wrong and he wasn't mad, just didn't think it would work. Everyone was shocked by this and how he has handled everything. He has done everything right the opposite of what we ALL thought. This has all been about 2 weeks ago now. Well our close friends were hoping that he would rethink things and come around. He did give a reason to them and it was kinda lame. My sister n law grew up with him and says he is like a brother to her, but she was very disappointed in the way he has done things. She made the comment that maybe I would be a good influence on him as far as going to church and everything. I will not say I am perfect and do the right things all the time, but after I got to know him a little more, I felt that maybe we could really help each other in the way of building up and trusting, and hopefully be good friends. I was told by him and others that he didn't bring just anyone around his daughter unless he thought it might be something with this person. Well at this point he had already brought her around me. He seemed concerned at times that I would hold somethings against him, by the way some of this family was acting. It wasn't that big of a deal to me and I told him not to worry about it. He said well okay. All of his actions seemed to indicate he was really liking me and all. As soon as I let my guard down, BOOM! He is gone. I was not trying to rush anything because like I said I didnt' want to start anything to begin with. Alot of friends seemed to think that he just scared himself and ran the other direction. I felt like he couldn't get away from me fast enough. Then I heard a few days ago he was hanging around some other girl. Well I don't want to be stupid here, but my gut was telling me he was starting to have feelings and that isn't what he wanted or wasn't ready for. But HE PURSUED ME, not the other way around. Yes, if he is going to do this then he is not for me I understand. Well I was praying about all of this from the beginning. Now I am praying for understanding. I would be more apt to think he was just looking for a casual thing if his actions were different. Well this was put to me. He needs God and he has been terribly hurt. He is running from his feelings and from God, but doesn't know that he is running. I scared him and he didn't like it, so he went to someone else that didn't threaten him. I dont' know. After talking to some friends and learning some other things, I felt better and came to the conclusion that he is just a scared man, afraid to open his heart and will only go so far with emotions. I was feeling much better about things, including the fact that he was already seeing someone else. Then this morning I had a dream. I had to give some people a ride some where, including him. He didn't say anything and I didn't either. He just got in the back seat and never said anything. Then I let them out, he got in his truck which was attached to a trailer and left. There were some pictures that belonged to both of us and he was to take half of them, but forgot to get them. I told my mother that he was going to have to get them from me and if he knew that. She said Dad told him and he said that didn't matter. I looked up to see him turning around to come back and get them. I said to her, he just didn't care at all did he? She said no he didn't. Again I had the feeling that he was running just as far and as fast as he could, but it kinda upset me that we said he didn't care. I woke up in turmoil and was wondering why there was such turmoil. If this is God telling me this guy's true feelings and that was the end of it, then why didn't I just have a peace in knowing that was all and to just get on with it. I thought when God put a stop to it or shut a door, that was that and you just knew. Or could Satan be messing with me because I did have some peace about it. I know the guy needs prayer and I pray for him, even though I got hurt. Anyone have any thoughts of any kind?

Well, I am chuckling as I read what you said only4him. I have been getting this message for some time now. I am definetly learning to BE STIll and listen. As I look back over dreams, devotions, advice from friends and replies from this site, I have been given confirmation over and over again about things I need to be doing, starting with BE STILL. Thank you for confirming it once again, and yes I do have alot goin on and alot of things that don't make sense. But, things are coming to light, slowly but surely.

I had a dream recently where a hat was involved. I think it means protection/covering. What does anyone else think?

Thank You!

I have had several dreams over the last 2 years involving a particular person. Sometimes I don't feel they represent themselves, but sometimes I think they might. I have had several dreams with this person lately and am wondering if is common or not for a person to represent themselves? I know it depends on the dreamer and things going on with them, but I am not sure sometimes.

Gosh I am so hard headed. I have answer's and then I have a bad day and forget it all. I must be getting close to something for tricky nicci to be messing with me so bad. :duhh:

Thank You!

This is just a question I have concerning some answer's I think I am getting. What exactly does it mean to Let Go. I mean I get let it go and let God. You let him take care of it and you handle what you can. But somedays I will be full of hope and somedays I will be just disgusted with a situation. I keep saying I trust you Lord, and I know no matter what it looks like or how it feels you are still in control. But when you truly let something go, does that mean even to the point of forgetting all about it at times. I think sometimes I am afraid to forget it that makes sense. But the thing about it, I had a dream about this situation a couple of months ago, and only last week did it make any sense. It brought alot of things to light. I have asked to know the outcome of this so I can either have some closure or decide what to do otherwise. Sometimes I still feel so attached to this situation. I feel my part is to keep praying and wait, but lately I have been so grumpy for lack of a better word, I just don't know what to do.

Thank You very much for that. I will let you know.

Okay Guys, Really struggling here. I have asked about knowing for when God is speaking to you. Even writing this now I am nearly in tears because I want so badly to just be at peace and let some things go and let God take care of it. The only obvious answer that I always get in one way or another it BE STILL. To me this is not a yes or a no, which gives me some hope about some things I am praying about. I did have dreams about this situation, but couldn't remember enough about them when I woke up. All I remember are the feelings. The first one was a feeling of sadness, the second a feeling that it was gonna be okay. I just couldn't remember enough to really satisfy me. I have asked for them again, but haven't had dreamt again. Every time I get to feeling better about this situation or I am going about my business and not thinking about it, some negative or hurtful thought or doubt sets in. My question is, if Satan can't see your thoughts or see the future, but he can see how you react to things or situations, can he try to manipulate you by PUTTING thoughts in your head? Thoughts that can cause doubt, or what about FEELINGS even. I have sinking feelings and I have feelings of hope all at the same time. I read in a bible study one time that our feelings can't even be trusted. Only HIM. What if what I am feeling is HIM trying to tell me something. This is aggravating to me because when I feel good about it all and have some peace, here it all comes. I am getting better about casting down the thoughts and telling tricky nicky to go somewhere else. Today I feel my heart is getting it. I am in a battle and I am tired. Thoughts? Trina

Well I think I just answered my own question when I went back and read replies to my other question about knowing for sure when God is speaking to you. Oh Well, if you have any thoughts please let me know Thanks

Hello, I am asking you guys this because I have been praying for this person and have had dreams about the situation. I have been waiting for confirmation on some things and I believe I got it when I spoke to a friend about a situation in my life. When discussing the different ways God speaks to you and how he takes care of things this question came up. Sometimes when you are thinking of someone and would like to be able to speak with them, or know that they are okay, but you are unable to do so. You pray for their safety and their well being and that they would seek God and the peace he can give. There are times when I am either very lonesome for this person and the thought has crossed my mind several times, you are feeling this way because they are feeling this way. (kinda like when you are thinking of someone and the phone rings and it is the person you were thinking of on the other end) These are the times when my emotions are very strong. I can't help but wonder if it is just my wishful thinking or if that is the truth. My question is, Is it possible that what you maybe feeling that day is what the other person is actually feeling? Maybe that is why it is so strong on that particular day or time? Because I had been praying all day about how to deal with these feelings when that thought came to mind. I immediately prayed for this person right then, and I have to say I felt somewhat better. Just wondering if this is a possible AHA moment? Thanks Trina

Just a question, but when you guys experience the aha moments or ephiphanies, do you always understand what you are getting. In other words sometimes when I am searching for answer's, I will come across something or read something. I may not necessarily understand how it will help answer my question, but at the same time I still a bit of a weight lifted or feel like it somehow is helping me in some way. Does this make sense? :banghead:

Thanks, Ya'll

:D THANK YOU. This seems even harder when you are too close to the situation and your heart is very involved.

I have been praying for a while now about several things. When my heart is involved and I am emotional, too close to the situation, it is really hard for me to know sometimes when God is speaking to me. I know sometimes Satan will put things or thoughts or feelings or whatever it is he knows you want in front of you just to toy with you. There are times when I will have something on my heart and I will read something or a thought will come to mind and I have an aha moment and I think oh, that makes sense. Or it causes me to think of something else and I seemingly have an answer or at least an idea. I even have a little peace about it. But then later doubt sets in and I start to question. He keeps telling, this I know for sure to BE STILL. I have always had a hard time with that. When I am still and I am not anxious, thoughts come to mind and I feel somewhat better. I think okay, I get it. I see what he is saying, but the fear and doubt come in again. I know where the fear and doubt come from, It seems I am in constant battle with this. I have also asked for an answer to come in a dream or something. Sometimes I get a dream that I clearly remember, but I can't always figure out the meaning or what he is trying to say to me. I have also figured out that my feelings and even my perceptions of things can't be trusted sometimes. I guess my question is when I am seeking answer's, I want to know for sure, if is from God, and how do I know with out a doubt. I have also prayed for answer's on this and my heart and emotions are in a mess. I am praying for someone and a situation that I have asked for prayer about on the prophetic dream ministy site, before this site. Would really like some answer's. Thanks, Trina
