Just a little love
The Beatles sang a song "All You Need Is Love" while it may not be all we need it does help. Just to know someone is praying for you or showing they care about your situation can mean everything. I know I've been in the hospital so much the last several years that I should have a wing named after me, but I also knew everytime that my church and friends were praying for me. They didn't have to even visit, just knowing they had me in their thoughts made a world of difference. Also with every visit nurses always commented on what a great attitude I had and I always pointed out that I have the best "physician" ever in God and that all my church folks were praying so there was nothing to worry about. I also got great service from them, being nice also helps you out. So take a look around and see if someone needs a little love in your life!
God bless!

Amen to that! prayer is the key, faith unlocks the the door, and because of the love that God has for us, gives us the grace to make it each and everyday... knowing that He loves us with an everlasting love is so comforting to me.
I know you already know, therefore this is a reminder to you, when your nurses see you they see Him, when they experence your attitude to gratitude they are experiening Him, for we christians are the hands and feet of Christ. For some people, we are the only bible they see.
I've only been on this site for 2 days, but I already love your spirit

I'm so glad to see you posting it gets pretty quiet here most of the time, mostly just Trish and I. I almost quit awhile back because it just wasn't going anywhere, no one posting but Tri****ook a break for about a week but ya know I just couldn't do it because I kept getting a message from God that He doesn't always get results right away either and to just keep at it, so here I am!
When I first came here about 4 yrs ago it was active and flourishing but the gentleman that was heading it left, got married and started a second family and became a full fledged Pastor so he was just to busy to keep it up I imagine. I'd come here and there hadn't been any posts for months on end and just thought I wish somebody would get this going again. Then God said how bout you lady? Who me?! No, you must mean someone else right?(Sound a little like Moses?) Nope I'm talking to you, that's why I had you teach Sunday school a few years ago! Oh! Okay I'll give it a shot and I sure hope you'll help me! And here I am, sometimes, well most times I take a subject from my Daily Bread booklet and then run with it. I don't even come up with most of the words myself it comes mostly from God working in me. I type and am half way thru before I even know what I'm typing. At any rate I'm grateful to be used of God because I'm so gimped up physically that I can't get around well but I sure can type my fingers to the bone!
Anyway hope you post often and I know there are more out there because some days I see 10 or more hits so all you lurkers come on and join us everyone is welcome we are pretty much non denomonational all tho kinda lean toward the born again side but none the less we welcome everyone. We don't push any one religion and we don't want fights and debates but otherwise all are welcome to share and lend support. we all know the is power in prayer!

hahaha, your last message made me think of
Isaiah 6:8 And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" Then I said, "Here am I! Send me."
In all that you do do unto the glory of God, keep doing it, posting...
As I read this book the Diet Alternative, by Diane Hampton. I will try to post thoughts and revelations from this book.
hopefully others will get this book. I havnt not had my surgery yet (date is Dec 13th).
However as I read and research and read/watch others journals of their WLS, I see that it does not fix the spirit of gluttony.
I have read and seen others that had G-bypass and the band, but gain all their weight back and more. I do not want that to be me.
God said I can be free. I desire to be healthy and whole...spirit, mind and body... not just body.

Love may not be all you need, but it sure helps heal me. I have a dear friend, Ruth, who has mentored me for more than a decade, and her love for me, no matter what I told her I had done, and her reminding me of Christ's unending, unconditional love, helped heal me of all the childhood fears and abuses, and emotional neglect.
Because of all that love, I am able to give love to some of the most unlovable people in society's eyes. I try to see people as Christ sees them. He hung out with and ministered to the people that society looked down on, and He showed His unending love to them.
Hugs,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.
