Colorado

In the fall of 1995 I attended vincennes University. I studied sign language and English. All that semester, I was not motivated, and I had decided that I didn't know what I wanted to major in. As December came around I had decided not to go back second semester. That first semester was already really expensive, and I didn't want to spend more money when I had know idea what I wanted to do. I moved back home, and got a job at Wall-mart as a night st ocker in the craft and fabric department. I hated it, and worst of all I felt like I was a failer. At that point, sense i was working at night and sleeping during the day I really did not have a group of people to fellowship with. Also, all my friends had moved away to collage or got married and started having kids. In July of 1996, I decided to take advantage of my Aunt and Uncle's offer to come stay with them in Colorado, I remember making the chose as a response to feeling like I was too comfortable just living at home. I love my parents don't get me wrong, and I know that they would have let me stay there for as long as I needed but I knew that if I wasn't going to collage, that I need to get out from under their wings and take my own steps Of faith.

Totally understandable. We've all gotta find God for ourselves!

He desires to know what I think and feel.

The kind of man that I want to marry, will respect and value my thoughts and feelings about life, and just stuff. I know, that at times he won't meet that need and I know that I won't always meet his needs the way they should be met, but here's the thing, If we are both pursuing God we can know that He is the one who is going to meet all our needs. I can know that the man that I am married too is not perfect yet, and that God is still working to create the man that he intended. what does it mean for husbands to respect their wives, I think it means, that before they make decisions about things, they should consider what God might be saying to her about the event, or situation. What does it mean for wives to submit and respect their husband, well I am not entirely sure but, maybe part of submit and respect for husbands is letting them know by your actions that you trust Him to make the final call, and in that you submit your will to his, or the truth is when this happens and...

More from the Tom boy

...She will most likely have a favoret tree she climbed when she was a girl. She didn't just climb it she sat in it and dreamed in it. She also probabley sprang ankles and wrists jumping out of it at times. Maybe she dreamed of building or built, (with her dads help) a tree house or tree fort in the tree. One of her favoret movies is the Sandlot, and she wanted to be one of those boys, and was really frustrated because she didn't seem to have the same kind of fun and adventures they did, or maybe she did. If she did she sure got into a bunch of trouble. She will have stories about playing in the dirt, chasing down lizerds catching crodads in the crick, and having mice for pets, and being the fasest girl on the neighborhood block. This Tom boy is a dreamer, always wondering and questioning life and pausing to hear the noise or silents inside. For the most part these thoughts and dreams never are spoken out loud though they are bursting at her seams to be heard.

How do we, while in the earthly kingdom, live as a holy nation that is set apart and sent into the world?

I am in a bible study, and we are studying 1 Peter. Every week we all receive a group of questions on the part we are feeding on the following evening. This week we are looking at 1 Peter 2:13-25. One of the questions that was asked was "How do we, while in the earthly kingdom, live as a holy nation that is set apart and sent into the world? I rasuled a bit with this whole section of 1 Peter only because I have been reading the book of Daniel. I felt like maybe the bible was saying some different things in regards to how we should treat people in authority over us. What I mean by this is when Daniel, Shadrach,Meshach and Abednego were under the rule of King Nebuchadnezzer There were some times when they did not submit to what the king had asked because it was against God. It seemed to me as I was reading the passage in Peter that he is asking us to submit in all things,and how would that have applied in the circumstances with Daniel and his friends,And if we are to be obedient as...
