Thank you Cholette! I will pray for her then and I totally understand about turning cold hearted. I def. don't want to turn cold hearted!! Well, Cholette and Daph, I did start my Pilates class! It's on mondays and this time I took my son with me which is always comical to everyone watching him, he's like a wiry gumby! I wished I was that flexible when I was little... never happened. So, ballet starts of pretty simple with positions of the feet! I think it's a good idea for any size to do it because it works the core and balance on top of building muscles, and working on posture. What gets me confused with the steps is when the teacher faces us and she says inside leg or outside leg and I tend to watch more than listen, she uses the same leg she says to use but facing us it's opposite for me and my brain does mirroring and not opposites, So confusing! Luckily they have a parallel bars so you can stand on either side. Today I thought it would be good if I switched on and off, but she works both side of the body equally and I won't be doing the switching thing anymore!

No, not at all. What made me uncomfortable was her making a scene with her ramblings and that she was talking to God in the way that she was and to me.

I just started a ballet class last week and and today we had class. This is not a serious class just something free here on post. So this middle aged woman comes to class that didn't attend all last week. Always talking to the teacher but in a mumbling in an annoying way, like she has to give a reason for her not being in the class last week but no one is listening kind of thing and just rambling on and on. What really made me uncomfortable was that she would look up towards the ceiling and ask God questions out loud in front of everyone. At first I thought she was just trying to make up her mind and just threw God in there, but then she answered herself out loud. She even targeted me to talk to about God telling her husband to buy sheet music to learn to play guitar and once he gets the hang of it then the fun starts. I was a little embarrassed that she was telling me because of how it shocked my system. At the same time I felt guilty (because she was seemingly a fellow christian) for being uncomfortable and not wanting her attention at all. I guess my question is: Am I wrong?

AMEN Lola!!! I forgot to add that my last church I only went to for a year and that was 2008-2009!

AMEN to that Cholette!!!

I prayed for you

By the way notice between the two separate stories the common theme, 80's, church, city, Tinker AFB!!! Let me tell you, I have not lived in my home state for 11 years, I'm 32 and soon to be 33. I was a KID in the 80's!!! Talk about Amazing FATHER

Praise God it is the church I'm supposed to be at!!! Got 2 confirmations from the SAME person/couple on 2 separate occasions (1 at church and 1 at a restaurant) They took my son and I out to eat!!! I almost missed my blessings today because both my son and I are exhausted from getting up so early for church. So, yesterday/last night I was wanting to take my son to get some of those cheap burgers at burger king because we have been living on that soup that I got bogo on (praise God about that because if it weren't for my Father inspiring me to go to the store one night when we only had 200 to spend before payday over two weeks away at the time...) I don't know what to do because my husband told me that we could only spend 400 till pay day and that's over 2 weeks away and a bill was auto payed that was over 300$!! Praise God for the 63$ He made the bank give us too!!! So, I've been having cravings for all kinds of food because of pms... So back to the church, the first thing I had asked God about a church was that the First person who invited me to church would be the church He wanted me to go to. So, I was talking to a homeschooler that I had called for advice and she invited me to church. So, we didn't go last sunday because we were too tired to get up... Yesterday I asked God to give me a confirmation and I would know what it was. So we get to church and I was thinking we were late! Praise God my Bible class had not even started yet inspite of what the clock said and they were doing the greetings. So, the teacher started talking about prayer, how to pray, which was my 1st confirmation because it's something people have been confusing me on. So, that's over and we go to service and this older couple greeted me as if we had met previously. They invited me and my son to sit next to them and we got to talking and it was interesting because we had places in common (the husband being retired airforce and also served in the Army). I told them about the confirmation I had gotten to be at the church. Anyway, they invited to take my son and I out to eat and asked what we would like to eat, we said hamburgers. I was so excited because God had provided my hearts desire and needs at the same time!!! So, before I had asked God for the specific confirmation I was going to ask him to let the confirmation be that I would speak to someone from my home town or area... Come to find out when we were eating that they had been Stationed at Tinker AFB!! They EVEN went to my church back in the early 80's!!! The church I had grown up in!!! God is fun, we don't even have to ask sometimes and He delights in giving it to us anyway!!! Ok so, the confirmation town thing... Listen to THIS, the last church I also asked God for a confirmation. My first time at home group I sat my stuff down on a chair and then went and had desert with the others in the kitchen and there was this tall elegant and beautiful lady and I kept looking at her all the while thinking "DOES she look familiar" (not, she looks familiar), so we all go and sit down. Lo and behold I had put my stuff down right next to the lady and was sitting beside her. So after we get done with introductions and telling where we are from we start group and then at the end she said she had noticed that I was from a certain city and that She had lived near there while they were stationed at Tinker AFB (notice the trend here), pretty cool! So then she says that they went to church in my city and I asked "really, what church" she said "oh, you prob. wouldn't know it" I said "try me, I might" she said "---" and I said "REALLY" "That's my church"!! She said some exclamatory thing and then I asked "what years did you go"? She said "you probably didn't go there at the time" I said I might have and so she said "around 1985" and I said "REALLY" I went there then!! I started asking her if she remembered all these different people and she said yes and then I asked her if she remember my mom and at first she said no until I started describing my mom's unique characteristics and she got that Big spark of rememberance and she said "YES, and she had that beautiful blonde daughter that looks just like her" I said "YES, that's ME" I think we were both crying by then because a couple we both loved had gotten divorced and she didn't know. Then she told me that my parents had invited her over for dinner during one of the toughest times in her life because she had a new baby and her husband was in basic training or something. I didn't remember my mom inviting her for dinner and she told of her rememberance and sparked a little recognition but didn't click with my view in my child's perspective. On the way home I was thinking of her rememberance and only one word that she had said was the clicker and that was broccoli. That was the one thing that I had remembered all these years was a broccoli story and she had her own version of the broccoli story. It caused my version to come flooding back when I was in the quiet of my car. I was so excited because I had that story and never knew why until that night!! It was to show how Great God is and that He's been taking care of me and still is. So, this lady, they didn't go to our church for many years, only a few. I loved her and thought she was so beautiful and at the time I would never admit to myself that someone was beautiful because I was so insecure and thought I was ugly. I wanted to grow up and be beautiful like her. I was really sad when they left and I remember the sunday vaguely being the last sunday for them and it was sad.

Thank you Cholette and Connie, I'm up and getting ready for church, feeling pretty good emotionally despite not being able to fall asleep!! I'm excited about seeing about this new church!! Thank you Father

I think I'm pms'ing, which I have noticed that I get very emotional at all ranges of the emotions. It's something I've only begun to notice because I grew seriously depressed and only within the past couple years have been trying to overcome.

I'm in agreement as well :)

I pray that the Holy Spirit give the prophet wisdom, knowledge/insight, and that it pierces your husbands through the heart, in the Name of Jesus AMEN!!!

Christa God is AMAZING HE HAS answered our prayers!!!!

I wish my husband's tongue would swell after he calls me awful words!! I prayed for you :)

After you all prayed my sore throat went away and I feel that my cold isn't as bad as it would have been. Thank you again!! Thank you Father!!

That is really interesting! Funny you mention Ezekiel because God had me read that yesterday! Then He had me read Revelations last night! It's really cool how He brings things together and you don't know why. I'm sure God will give me the answer eventually and your stuff I'm sure will help.

Good, Thanks Connie :)

I want to be a martyr, I would not want to be one to survive if that is what will happen that they are deceived in the end.

Ok, I read it while forgetting the ones who refused the mark, lived through everything, and followed God. I don't understand why after all of that they would give up everything for satan?

I was reading a part of Rev. that I've always been very confused and it even scared me. I asked the Holy Spirit what it means. Here is what confused me (I color coded it. The colors that are the same or in the same type of color belong to each other and represents my understanding. Also if you don't feel like reading the verses I posted more at the bottom. I have a question down there ) Rev. 20 ((New King James Version) most of the other versions say the same thing) 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands.And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years. Satanic Rebellion Crushed 7 Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. 9 They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them. 10 The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. The Great White Throne Judgment 11 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

[url=http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation 20&version=NKJV#en-NKJV-31049]Revelation 20:14[/url] NU-Text and M-Text add the lake of fire. This is my new understanding: Rev. 6 9When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. 10 They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" 11 Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed. Revelation 20 (Contemporary English Version) 4 I saw thrones, and sitting on those thrones were the ones who had been given the right to judge. I also saw the souls of the people who had their heads cut off because they had told about Jesus and preached God's message. They were the same ones who had not worshiped the beast or the idol, and they had refused to let its mark be put on their hands or foreheads. They will come to life and rule with Christ for a thousand years. 5-6 These people are the first to be raised to life, and they are especially blessed and holy. The second death [a] has no power over them. They will be priests for God and Christ and will rule with them for a thousand years. No other dead people were raised to life until a thousand years later. Satan Is Defeated 7 At the end of the thousand years, Satan will be set free. 8 He will fool the countries of Gog and Magog, which are at the far ends of the earth, and their people will follow him into battle. They will have as many followers as there are grains of sand along the beach, 9 and they will march all the way across the earth. They will surround the camp of God's people and the city that his people love. But fire will come down from heaven and destroy the whole army. 10 Then the devil who fooled them will be thrown into the lake of fire and burning sulfur. He will be there with the beast and the false prophet, and they will be in pain day and night forever and ever. The Judgment at the Great White Throne 11I saw a great white throne with someone sitting on it. Earth and heaven tried to run away, but there was no place for them to go. 12I also saw all the dead people standing in front of that throne. Every one of them was there, no matter who they had once been. Several books were opened, and then the book of life was opened. The dead were judged by what those books said they had done. 13The sea gave up the dead people who were in it, and death and its kingdom also gave up their dead. Then everyone was judged by what they had done. 14Afterwards, death and its kingdom were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death. [c] 15Anyone whose name wasn't written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. My[b] NEW question is WHO is Gog and Magog and where did they come from? If they are not Who I originally thought they, the martyrs, then WHO are they?! Are they people who survived the tribulation, did not take the mark or bow to the image of the beast or do anything like that, yet did not become believers of Jesus?!

I don't know if I discovered something? The whole thing about people not being able to be saved after the "rapture" I fully believe is false because there will be the prophets and it also talks about those who remain faithful to God during that time. Then I notice the Revelation doesn't even mention the rise of the anti-christ till the middle of the book. I believe that's when the saving stops once people take the mark of the beast which doesn't happen till a lot of stuff has already happened. The only ones that can get saved after that are the ones who refuse the mark for whatever reason and are in hiding.

Thank you guys!! I feel it is not as bad as it was earlier!! Praise Yah

Amen, thank you Father and thank you usemelord for standing with me

Can you all Please pray that this does not turn into anything at all? I've prayed and I need you to stand with me :)

PRAISE YAH To add to what Justblueskies said, monosodiumglutamate also causes migraines. Justblueskies, I have also been avoiding nitrites. There a couple brands of lunch meat and kosher wieners that don't have them! I love it though I don't even buy that very often. Not for headaches sake but for health sake I avoid Nitrites Corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, fructose and anything pretending not to be hydrogenated oil or fats incl. crisco, animal fat esp. red meat fat that comes from cow, also olive oil that isn't extra virgin, and some other oils are bad (can't remember them) white bread that is not whole grain I also stay out of the cookie isle! I hope this helps anyone :)
