Why would I need to be assisted in expressing myself to God or the church? Most of us are quite good at expression... and Romans 8:25-27 says "But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought...

This is an interesting article about modern worship. I don't sing, except alone in my car when I am on the highway so no one hears me, but I do know that it's harder and harder to find worship music that is scripture-based and focuses on God rather than evoking a temporary emotional state. It's...

Years ago, I had a consultation with a dietician. She said that unless you have lymphedema or high blood pressure, sodium is not going to hurt you - unless you consume huge amounts, but huge amounts of anything is not good for anyone. I have been using Premier Protein drinks because I simply...

My name is English and means "God is gracious"... and he is!! Especially to me because I've needed lots of grace over the years.

Andrew, I'm sorry, I meant to say this in my post and forgot. Canadian Thanksgiving is Monday, Oct. 14. Since you are decorating for Thanksgiving, and if you are worried your mom won't make it till the end of November, you could always celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving with her.

I'm so sorry your mom is sick. One thing the prosperity people don't seem to get is that we are all subject to the world in this life, including sickness and death. There is a life beyond where there will be no more suffering, but that is not the case with life in this body. I had a similar...

I delivered newspapers at the age of 8 or 9. After that I helped my folks build a house and then was held in child labour in the orchards for many, many years until I escaped by getting a job at the "seconds" store where my parents took their fruit. That was a fun job and I got to do not only...

Do you have a sensory processing disorder? Try using a weighted blanket, or when you're frustrated, you can roll yourself up tight into a regular blanket. Put more effort into normal tasks, like chewing harder, or when you use a squeeze ball, use your whole arm to squeeze rather than just your...

I think you should all answer what the one thing is - you know, like those miracle cure things... I used to weigh 800 lbs until I started eating nothing but chia seeds soaked in aloe vera juice every day.

I am a family support worker and teach attachment through attunement. We are born with an innate and desperate need to be known, to belong and to be loved - and to know, create belonging for another and to love. We are born totally dependent on our caregivers for everything for a longer time...

Congratulations, jsimms! Oh, what I wouldn't give to run again! That must feel so great to reach your goal! I met my goal last night, too! January 30 I joined Weight Watchers and I got my 50-lb pin! I lost 50 lbs! I feel so fantastic, not to mention proud of my pin. All smiles today!

I come here because I like Lamb.

jsimms, you could make a list of short term health goals, and a long-term list of things you want out of life before you move on to the next. I revised my list when I had my son, and some of the things on my list were so small, like jumping around in mud puddles with him when he was 3 or 4, but...

My goal is to eat all the fresh fruit I can get my hands on this summer. I love in-season vine/tree-ripened fruit and can't get enough of it. This is a good year for sweet fruit! I have a bucket list. I'm not sure where it is, but every decade or so I find it, cross off things I've done, and...

BMI is an unrealistic measurement for many of us. Weight is also a problem. A person can "lose" 40 lbs and go down 7 sizes. Another person can lose 65 and go down two sizes. A person can yo-yo for years, and with every weight loss, they "gain" - as in start in size 14 at 125 lbs, gain and then...

I saw the episode. She actually didn't dump him because of his beliefs - she dumped him because he tried telling her what she couldn't do in the fantasy suite with the other guys, and because he was becoming quite controlling of her, not to mention really possessive. He told her that if she had...

I am thinking of the OT story about when they were carrying the ark of the covenant, and they had to cross the Jordan. The Jordan is a deep, fast river, and the force of the water, unstable footing under the water that the men could not see, going down the steep bank of the river... and carrying...

I guess reality tv has to have some semblance of reality. Actually, I think they can do whatever they want behind that closed door, and I think sometimes they do go for it as part of the worldly mentality that you want to test drive it before committing to keeping it. But I think some people...

What did you think happened in the fantasy suites? And since this is in the art and media forum, did you know that when the bachelor or bachelorette is taping, none of the contestants (or the bachelor or bachelorette) are allowed to use technology - even tv, from what I understand, so nothing...
