Christian's: Please Check In

[Shimmie]

It's been very busy for most of us due to the holidays. I, myself have been semi-present / less active on the forum.

However, "Happy New Year"

I'm asking for the Christians of this forum to please 'check-in'. We need to be 'aware' of one another and who 'we' are. To be perfectly honest, I would like to know just how many Christians are here among us and I must say that I am honoured to know you.

Please don't be shy :blush3:

God wants us to be 'One'.

In addition, if someone needs prayer, this is a good place to request it, as there are many Christians in this forum who will embrace who you are and pray for you.

It doesn't matter what your denomination is. Please 'check in' and share who you are.

For those of you who are new :Rose:

:welcome3:

If you want to call me one esp with my name and all. I'm the very imperfect christian.

I'm a Christian in training, still a baby, but maturing more each day.

I'm always 'in training'. None of us are perfect. We each live in a growing / development stage. Only Jesus is the perfect 'Christian'.

The very fact that both of you are the first two to proclaim your love for Jesus, speaks volumes that INDEED you are in love with Jesus Christ.

I love you both...even with the name, 'Goddess'.

Very true sweet auntie Shimmie. I guess for me I may never be what I was taught a Christian is and was. My background has shaped me so far differently that I see is so unlike me. When I think Christian lady I think sweet,nice,bakes pies and cookies for Sunday school,never crude,curse,always good like pure.

But when I see me I see me a Christian yes but one with thorns and hard edges. Darkness yet focused on what matters so much more. Like the yuck of the world is my concern. The whores of the world, the dope dealers,the drug addicts,the po--not poor bc they can't afford the or,etc.

Seeing you are the picture of what I was taught of a christian. Your voice even sounds all sweet giving folks the sugar and such.

Checking in! I hardly post but I check out the forum quite regularly.

 

[loolalooh]

Checking in as a Christian who has been between "milk" and "meat" for too long.

 

[sweetvi]

I'm here!!!!! I actually called in Thursday night but no prayer service?


If anyone is interested there is a prayer service called Girlfriends Pray along with Shimmie prayer line. They pray daily 0700 am and 1000 pm except Sundays. It has changed my life! The number is 1 712 432 0075. Access code 128845#

Enjoy and Happy New Year!!!!

Not new, but thought I'd check in anyway. I check this forum most days. Aiming to get back to where I used to be and beyond. God has been showing me to me. I'm sad, embarassed and a little ashamed. I've spent a lot of time blaming everyone else and justifying my actions and God has been saying, "But what have I called you to do? How are you supposed to treat people?" I'm no better than the next person. And...I'm more insecure than I care to admit. I don't like that I'm so insecure with just about everything.

You may not be aware of this, but so many 'hurting' Christians and those who are not Christians have been pulled from out of their 'caves of fear' due to your witness. Reading your posts, many have been relieved of their burden of feeling it was only 'them' who felt so abandoned and alone and without a prayer.

Angel, none of us are 'strong' on our own. What you've been through shows even more just how strong you are and actually always have been. The devil tried to break you; in an attempt to stop God from using you, satan tried to break you, yet you are still whole from head to toe. Yes, there is a battle going on, but we all have battles. Not one person in this earth lives without a battle. I find it remarkable how you have stood and faced each one. Please don't ever underestimate how strong and beautiful you are. You are indeed a strong woman of God and you always will be.

You called us, Sweetvi? Thank you.

I've made several posts to let everyone know that we would resume next Thursday, January 10, 2012.

I'm honoured that you called our prayer line. I'm sorry you missed us.

sweetvi, what time zone is the prayer line in? I'm in Texas and want to make sure I check it out. Thanks

 

[SummerSolstice]

I'm still a Christian so far

 

[sweetvi]

I'm sorry. It is Eastern time. They have a website. Don't remember the URL but you can Google Girlfriends Pray and it would lead you there. This morning they had a guest speaker and he was on Firrrre! Also they will be starting a 21 day fast soon......

 

[sweetvi]

Sorry @ Shimmie. I was very busy so did not pay attention. Okay will check in thursday

I'm honoured that you thought of us.

It was the holiday and everyone was in a flurry and busy. I still checked in just in case prayers were posted. No apology is needed Loved one. Not at all.

Hey Darlings...

Thank you for checking in.

Loving... I'm glad you checked in and appreciate that you support our faith.

loolalooh... Hey Precious One. How you doing? You are such a precious blessing.

As for the milk and the meat... Girl, I'm between the Lemonade with plenty of ice and warm/hot Coffee One extreme to the other

 

[Tyra]

Former prodical daughter checking in.
So excited about knowing all of you.
Love you. My tesimony is long (one day I'll exercise enough Holy Ghost boldness to share it with you all).
The best way to sum it up is to say that it's of the LORD's mercies that I'm not consumed. When I was backslidden He preserved me and drew me back. I'm in love Him and I'm glad to know that others share that same heart for Him. Not worrying about denominations for if you're full of the Holy Spirit, have the love of Christ shed abroad in your heart, bear fruits of Him, and hate Satan and his wicked devices as I do, you are my sister.

I've been around the boards for a long time, but don't post very often. I first accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior in 2006 and continue to grow everyday in this walk with the Lord.

Thank you, Shimmie. I'm so glad you're on this forum. We really need you here (in addition to Nice & Wavy). You two - and a few others here - have been a big part of me striving in this walk.

I'm hanging in there. Crying to the Lord day and night based on Luke. Thanks again.

Hey Loves... Each of you. Thank you so much for checking in.

You know what? This is special. It's like having a 'meet-up'; as we're each meeting and greeting each other and getting to know our sisters in Christ among us.

Again, there are no 'divisions' here. We each share Jesus and His Love. We each are growing in Him. In spite of our 'denominations', we still have the main focus, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

I know for a fact that when any of us are in need of love and support, that everyone here will 'run' to embrace whoever has that need and they will mean it with all of their hearts.

I'm so blessed to be among each of you.

:blowkiss:
