meeep!

Yesh shir!

yikes!

Oh Del :) If anything, your gift is one making someone feel better about themselves. Thank you.

I don't necessarily agree with you, mind you. :p And I think if I was to try and shine, I'd probably blind someone, making them drive off a cliff doing mach 8. In a red convertible. That will explode for no apparent reason except all for wheels are no longer on pavement. It will then crash into a fireworks facility. The resulting explosion would be able to be seen from space station mir, blinding the pilot...

But seriously... the spirit may use some of my words, as he does for ALL of us here. I like being a part of cblf and I would rather that I never had left. But it is all part of God's plan.

In truth, there was a time when I once wondered if cblf would be a part of my ministry, but I know now more than ever it is not. You (pl), who are all so full of the Holy Spirit already. I should be lucky to have a tenth of the faith that most posters here possess. Some just don't realize just exactly how strong they are. But it is a true strength, not like my own which seems strong at first glance, but proves itself hollow at the first storm.

Keep edifying one another! It really is wonderful to read your witness. Continue to comfort and remind each other of not only the crosses we bear, but the grace that is given to us all. And I pray God let me learn from you all what all I can about faith and love. I may be knowledgeable, but my faith is decisively weak. That is my downfall.

*whaps you over the head with the poor mangled seagull* You and every member in here are more deserving of these, and of better wings, than I. ;p For now, i will settle for the down that comes loose during these thread discussions.

I am not devaluing myself in this. It is sincere, as I am struck speechless at the display of faith I have read. I know the tenacity of my own faith, and it frightens me.
