A lot of really cool things are happening to me. God has put someone in my life in hopes that I would wake up. Well I have, and I'm becoming a little more awake each day. When once I used to despise Christians, now I can call myself one with joy. Real emotions are flooding my life now instead of the chemical ones that felt so necessary. I'm on the way to becoming the man God always knew I could be. I had no idea the first step was so easy and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. I consider all you people here at BFC to be my family in a way and I just felt the need to share with you. Maybe I'm going crazy, but if this is crazy... sign me out a straight jacket because I'm loving it :D
 
Read Mark, Mathew, and Luke. All chapters are intesting and even meet modern day philosophy. You'll know when he walks and talks with you. It's like nothing you will ever experience in your life. Amazing Grace. :)
 
It's true what they said in NA. Once you have some sobriety, things just fall into place. I've been a Druid for the past 8 years and thought that was as good as it gets. I honestly thought heaven wasn't for people like me. Over the last week tremendous changes have been happening in my life. I've been having terrible nightmares and I'm happy to have them. My mom says that is the darkness trying to sway me back. Now I can see those doubts as attempts of desperation by the darkness trying to win me back... but it won't work. One day at a time I'm trying to walk in the light.
 
WONDERFUL NEWS. I can tell by your post that you are on your way to a better, more fulfilling life. It's always refreshing to learn about other people's experiences with such matters. :)
 
It takes a special individual with the right mindset to turn to Christianity..maybe that's why I'm not a Christian :p...Anyway, congratulations. It's always nice to find a path, any path, in life.
 
And this is the girl that God has saved (I use the word saved as in ... kept me alive) me for. By all means, I should have been dead (and stayed that way) a long time ago. She's loved me for years and I had no idea. Well all that changed a little while ago. :D

She carries my old waved CQC7b and wants to learn how to manipulate a balisong :D

BTW, what's a good kife she can carry clipped to her underwear? She wants it to be cradled in her inner hip, front. It's gotta be light and it can't print through her dress. It's going to be her weapon for when she goes salsa dancing since she won't be carrying her purse. I was thinking a push dagger (very sexy) but I don't want her yanking her undies off trying to break kydex. Neck carry has been ruled out. She is leaning toward a BM31 but she doesn't have the training yet to draw and deploy/employ without thinking.
 
Congrats! She is indeed very pretty! And even better is the way you feel about each other.

I'm not a Christian, but any kind of belief in a Higher Power is important, and it has also helped me make it through some rough times. I'm glad to see you so happy!

Totally... I can't believe someone so pure and beautiful could ever love my ugly ass :eek:

Oh, I told her about the hideaway knife and she's all over it.
 
Born and raised Catholic, never did truck with the whole church thing. Much prefer being outside by myself for prayer. Believe in God and Jesus, respect most religions and everyones beliefs. Trying to find my way. It's good that you've found yours.

I'm looking for three things right now

a home of my own, preferably a rancher

a nice late model truck that has no bs problems

a woman that will put up with me, and has a sense of humor (so far, I've only gotten either she'll put up with me, or she has a sense of humor. The ones that put up with me have no sense of humor and aren't fun)




Oh yeah, maybe I've seen Star Wars too many times, but I believe that the Holy Spirit is it. Just it. Everything. Ties us all together.

Okay, I'll go tape up a Sebenza now ;) . :p :D

God loves you & so do we !
You will find joy & contentment from here on out . Problems will become challenges and a CHRISTIAN soldier rises to cvhallenges ! ;) ;) ;)

SS,

I was concerned about you when you were over in Iraq.

I was concerned about you when you came back.

I am not as concerned about you now. ;)

May God continue to bless you.
