AWESOMEEEEEE. ---------- Sitting at the kitchen table, enjoying some organic (fair trade) mint green tea. I put locally produced honey in it and slivered ginger root. Eating an apple and gonna pick up the book sitting next to me. And waiting for a reply on an e-mail.

Tired/sleepy, but content.

You know what? You're actually better off this happened. Have a safe trip tomorrow, I'm glad we hung out today.

*hugggsssss* :/ I am, and I've asked others to pray too. Like I said this weekend, you have all my support. Love u.

Lying in bed, bored as hell. I think I've read every article on headline news today from my mobile app.

happy!

I LEGIT JUST SAID THIS TONIGHT DURING SERVICE! We opened up the floor to state our gratitude (I led a reflection on gratitude and gratefulness tonight. Well, I preached, in other words.) The group is REALLY shy (grr sometimes), and I said, "I am grateful that God has given me the message that He (She, It, etc.) Loves me just the way I am." It is so wonderful to realize that! And important! --- And, I'm very blessed. God's given me the opportunity to assume more leadership at my church and I'm happy to step up to the plate and just do things. Tonight's sermon went incredibly well. I laug

I agree with you, Arie. It gets to be exhaustive. The good thing that comes out of it--or should come out of it--is entertaining the idea that, perhaps, our level of critical thinking can be further enlarged. However--and this is NOT for purposes of debate--I just don't understand why we cannot deeply appreciate each other's experiences--whether that be someone's achievements, moments of wisdom and self-awareness, or level of love they feel for someone else...regardless of that person happening to be of the same gender--without automatically, and innately, connecting it to religious beliefs

Noooooot selfish at all. You do need a different job; I've been telling you that for a year. And . I'm sorry. I'll pray for both, and I hope she gets better! I love your gram! <3.

Four letters: LMAO. I liked "The Hunger Games," too! For the most part lol, and I want to get started on reading the books. I've said it before, Katniss is seriously my new heroine. I was watching the movie and was struck by how similar Jennifer Lawrence's facial features are to a friend of mine. One other word: hottt. LoL. --- Btw, I read the topic name and thought, "Ohh nooo, what is Revan gonna say now?" I was all concerned at first lol. PS: suggestion: go with the flow? lollll

I will pray for you. <3.

I briefly read over your last post, Joe, so apologies if I don't answer all of your questions. I do not believe homosexuality is a sin in the connotation that humans apply to it. There exists, on some level or another, an intrinsic need in humans to prioritize sections of people, to make sense of the world through logical, rational, and categorical reasoning. We can say homosexuality is a sin and equatable to all others listed and stated in the Bible. That's fine, but contextually speaking that places such activities as theft and murder, etc., on the same level. Contextually, it implies to s

I said, I've read the Bible. I choose to believe it is not a sin. I didn't say it's not God's word, I acknowledge the fact that the Bible--having been written thousands of years ago--was written in a particular historical context that may or may not be relevant today...further implying that what has been written as being accounted for as said by God is an Inspired word of God. Neither you or I can determined what has actually been said BY God, huh? Agree to disagree, which is why I've said the debate is a moot point that has a tendency to go in circles.

I personally don't believe being homosexual is a sin, Will. I've read the Bible, I know what's in it thank you very much. Churches DON'T have to be welcoming. You've not followed me around, have you? I guess you wouldn't be able to see authenticity and camraderie in my church either. What's your intention in replying right after my post if what your post says pretty much is the same thing you've said throughout the entire thread? The Bible was written thousands of years ago and is also written as an Inspired word of God, not to be considered AS God's Word and Final Say. Have you decided to

Look, I'm fatigued and in pain tonight. I'm not going to go through a long discussion on homosexuality and religion. It's such a long debate and moot point by now. I'm not sure why some people feel the need to discuss who is a "sinner," "saved," and "destined to hell" because of their orientation and who they feel love for. In fact, I think it's the most stupid thing ever to deny someone a right to religion and faith and/or support just because of a discovery that someone is homosexual. Granted, I'm not homosexual, I'm bisexual...which for some weird reason may be considered worse in percep

Sad for a girlfriend of mine.

Sitting up and enjoying the quiet, listening to the wind and rain. About to put my earphones in and write some of this paper that I'm working on.

Wooooo! Proud of you . --- My chiropractor coming into the physical therapy room today to say hi and ask me how everything's going and how surgery went. I always feel guilty walking out of his office, I find him so incredibly attractive. It's like, "no, kiiiim, nooooo." Hahaha.

I'm curious to start reading the books now. Btw, Peeta was in my dream the other morning. Driving me to school. He's so hawt . (The actor...since I've only seen the movie lol)

Omg Emmmaaaa. I forgot your birthday was last month :( . Happy super belated. :/ I was gonna ask you tonight before you left chat. Glad to talk to you tonight and hope you had a good time for your birthday! Xoxoxoxox. <3

Prayer for my friend who is going through a rough time right now. She's working on finishing up her year and is still making the effort to come to a lot of realizations and come away from a year ago a different person. I'm starting to care a lot about her, and I get worried. I pray she is able to finish what she needs to and gets the respite of this summer to really learn and teach her body how to relax and take it easy on herself. Nothing like meeting a bonafide twin in person .

Happy birthday, Kath <33333. You have proven yourself to be a super caring woman who is intelligent, kind, and open-minded. I wish you many great returns on your birthday and hope you've had a great day and evening. Xoxoxoxox. -Kim

Exhausted and nearly lethargic.

I just recently watched a live seminar by a woman who has her Doctoral degree in Social Work. She was fantastic. She spoke about gratefulness as one of the key factors for what sets two groups apart (complacent vs. Successful) [she's a qualitative researcher]. One of her most astounding questions to the audience was, "Are you going to observe gratefulness or are ya'll going to practice it??" I was like . I know this is Religious Resources Forum, but I think the theme ties in very well to religion/faith/whatever is your central, core belief. I was reading the book of Psalms a few days before
