Yes.

I read about Elijah and Elisha and the double portion Elisha received seeing his master depart. Both had struck the Jordan and walked over on dry ground.

We all have our Jordan's to cross over....

I have the NT in that it's pretty good.
I love the NKJV because it 's close to the KJV ,but a little easier to read to me.
I still love King Jimmy though.

Coonskinner 06-07-2007 12:35 PM

Several chapters early this morning.

I love the KJV too. If it was good enough for Peter it's good enough for me. :lol

in my guilt ridden state, I went back and read that thread LOL



didnt appease my guilt, but I did it


anyone ever read, or used one of those "read your bible in 90 days" bibles? my husband and I have one, we are reading ours - you read 12 pages or so a day (front and back of course) and you can read the bible through in 90 days...

I'm trying, just not very successful

I heard a young whipper snapper evangelist here a couple of weeks ago hold up his bible and say "This is the training wheels you need until you become so versed in the spirit..."

I thought to myself, "If ever the TORO award was warranted, I would present it to him now."

I have this on my favorites also - but it doesnt seem like the same - to me, taking the time to get alone with my Bible, is more "sincere"...you know?

It's like trying to maintain a relationship via email - sure it's nice, but its not the same as one on one face time

Yes and I am deep into study.God is so good.He hasn't hidden anything from
but has made it all available for the hungry heart.

Margies3 06-07-2007 05:27 PM

I read this morning about Jesus appearing on the road to Emmaus. I don't know why, but all these years, I've assumed that it was two of his disciples that he appeared to. Wrong. See, you learn a new thing every day (so says my mother)

Trouvere, I love your flag letters!! How did you do that?

Trouvere 06-07-2007 05:32 PM

Go to this site and create some of your own.Sister Angela Beard shared this with me once and I
saved the sites.

There are some racy things that you have to overlook but for the most part the
stuff is awesome.You type in whatever you want for a sig and then choose a style and paste it into the box in your profile that is for signatures.They are free.

I gave it a few shockamoo's... but I'm more of a dignified folk. Every now and then my foot gets a tappin.. and I may say "Praise Gawd" in a very baritone voice.

I don't care much for running laps around the pews. Maybe a leap or two. Lifting holy hands is a must.. well, maybe one hand. Eye's closed most of the time. Speaking to Him... Praising Him...
I had to apologize to God a few times.... One time I said:
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You,
It's all about You, Jesus
I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You,
It's all about You, Jesus

I agree.I thought of that song just last night during worship service.I for a moment longed for my guitar to be in my hands.My daughters both sing wonderfully and I filed it away in my mind to begin worship time at home with them again.We have gotten away from it.To be honest running the aisles and letting God have his way is a big pride buster.I am also very self conscious.
Once my husband said there was a man in church who testified that when one
of the brothers used to get out in the aisle and hop around on one leg like
a chicken it really got his goat.He would tell the Lord about it.Then one service
the Holy Ghost moved upon him in the same way and he got out in the aisle and hopped around on one leg like a chicken.He was never the same.
God is good.Bless you Brother.
