I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's day.
And a happy Mother’s day to all the mothers who follow this blog.
I know I haven’t been posting as much in the past few months, but college really got time consuming. Summer is starting in less than a week, though, and I really want to dedicate more time to this blog.
I’m glad you stuck with this blog, even though the posts have been few and far between. I hope to change...
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are...

What's Happening in Egypt Explained. (UPDATED)
promotingpeace:
The basics: Egypt is a large, mostly Arab, mostly Muslim country. At around 80 million people, it has the largest population in the Middle East and the third-largest in Africa. Most of Egypt is in North Africa, although the part of the country that borders Israel, the Sinai peninsula, is in Asia. Its other neighbors are Sudan (to the South), Libya (to the West), and Saudi Arabia...

Everywhere I go Your love surrounds me,
Everywhere I turn Your grace reminds me Nothin’ in the world can separate us now Every step I take You’re there to guide me Every day I wake Your mercy finds me Nothin’ in the world could ever take this love away
alanalovesmal asked: Hi, my name is Alana, and I am from Queensland, Australia.
We are currently undergoing floods and we need support through prayer. Many people are missing, 72 so far, and 9 confirmed dead, four of which are children. I know prayer is all we can do right now, and levels are expected to rise. Please support us, we are desperate.
Hope you are well.

People were also bringing babies to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to Him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter...

Matthew 14:22-33
22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. 23 After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone, 24 and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

rachel-annabelle asked: In terms of the homosexual question you just answered. I'd say from a christian perspective that everyone struggles with different aspects of sin, whether that be swearing, sexual sin, or homosexuality.
I agree entirely with what you said about God seeing us for who we are and knowing if we are gay.
Being gay is not a sin at all, its just how you are made.
however, what...

errolwiththepost asked: Alright. Since I personally know the individual who runs this blog, I feel like I need to throw my two cents in about Homosexuality and Christianity.
I do not have any experience with homosexuality outside of the Christian faith. I have always been pulled towards the Lord, and I have always answered His call to ministry. For example: I have worked in Christian schools, gone to a...

goldrimmedgrin asked: I believe that God is love, and to fully love, you must fully accept somebody. so if God fully loves everybody, he accepts them.
We all sin and God sees every sin as equal, so why is homosexuality different from any others?

mikestoleyobike asked: Could you further elaborate on what you mean about God made us just as we are? If God makes homosexuals the way they are, would that also mean He makes pedophiles, alcoholics, and drug addicts the way they are ?
ohhellwhereisyourvictory asked: Oh man, run from that church you are going to. Do not let anyone tell you even your mislead pastor that the bible is outdated. That is ridiculous. You are right the bible tells us to not eat pork but that was in the old testament when we were under the law and Jesus died and we are now under grace they said that once under the law but how can anyone think that saying something 5 times, 3 being in...

pillar-ofsalt asked: 1 timothy 10 refers to Practicing homosexuality as being against the sound doctrine and 1 corinthians 6 says homosexuals will not inherit thee Kingdom of God. It also goes on to say that some people in Corinth were once homosexuals but they were cleansed, sanctified, and justified by Jesus Christ and the Spirit of God. I think that shows us homosexuality is not planted in us by God and is a sin....
blainesbutterbeer asked: You are the first Christian I know of that shares my beliefs on homosexuality vs God. While I don't really believe in God myself (but do respect Christians and those who do) I'd like to think if there is a God, that He would be just as you described him. I guess I just wanted to thank you for being such an open-minded Christian-I've met and know far too many who are far too...
ohhellwhereisyourvictory asked: I am a born again Christian who has struggled with homosexuality for the past 9 years and I recently have surrendered my life back to Jesus and for you to say that you think God made them as they were breaks my heart. I know in heart My God does not approve of homosexuality. Not to say he doesnt love them because of course he does but My God is a just God and there is no where in the bible that...
Anonymous asked: I don't mean to play devil's advocate or anything, but I just want to clarify. In your answer about homosexuals, you said that God created people to be gay. Do you really believe that it's not a choice? Just wondering. In every piece of scripture I've read, it seems to me that it's a choice.
pinsnip asked: I love your tumblelog. I have followed quite a lot of other tumblelogs like this but your recent answer to allofthemebersfell's question is exactly why I don't see myself unfollowing this one. This tumblr isn't just about pretty verses and encouragement. It's like bible study on your dashboard.
I like how you discuss questions and address them truthfully....
