Three posts by me in a row. How embarrassing!
Out of curiosity, has anyone else purchased a notebook to keep up with this thread? I actually think it is funny that I feel the need.

Would I need a second notebook to keep up with the first notebook that keeps up with the thread?

Yes, I feel the need, just can't figure out how to keep up.

I get the same nonsense from my family. I have always preferred to dress where everything covered. I lately have asked my husband if he aproves of a certain outfit before I wear it. I still breastfeed our one year old son and when we are at work as well and there are other men around it makes my husband jealous. Our son won't let me cover up during that so I go hid as best I can. My mother is a God fearing woman however alot of things that I found last night she wouldn't be to pleased about but oh well it's what God says.my mother marraige evidence is one reason everything happened. She always told me if you not happy with something do one of two things dress in lingerie, walk around the house and when he wants sex tell him not till such and such happens, or to pack a bag and pretend to leave. It was really interesting to me when I went through everything with my husband how many said just to give up and get a divorce even my mother was one of them and she the one that taught me taht it wasn't an option. Time will does change people. I won't go into details but I remember one conversation with her after a few things that happened where she told me I didn't have to be a martyr which is what God has called us to be. And it was funny because she use to ask me as a child if someone asked you one day are you a christian and you say yes am dthey then bring all of us out and line them up and are about to kill them and they ask are you still a christian what would you say and I always said yes. I keep wanting to talk to my mom about what I found but I want to make sure I am not doing it because I am being snotty about it.

Ugh, that's a tough one


My mom and I had a pretty bad falling out when I first converted. I admit, it was totally my fault. I got all excited and really harsh on her. She and my ex couldn't stand each other, so she really encouraged my divorce. She's been divorced twice, and all three of us girls have been divorced at least once, one of them multiple times. I *might have* attacked her about it, but have since made amends. She didn't know what she was doing, she was just being a mom in the only way she knew how.

She still harasses me about it, though. Comments like, "I don't know how you can stand him controlling you" etc. And I don't think she realizes how bad it hurts my feelings and how angry I can get in defense of my god given place in life when she doesn't even understand it. She tells me, "you're supposed to honor your mother", and I can quip right back, "I'm to honor God first." I cleave to my husband, not my mother. We get along great now. As long as I make an example in my own marriage that putting God first helps everything else run smoother, then she has nothing to give her own opinion on, since she is not married lol


Weren't we just discussing the problems that Jacob ended up with because his mom was busybodying and not giving God control?


The best I can do for my marriage and my relationship with my mom is to do Gods will, and set an example. She may not understand, but its not her place to. It's between God, my husband, and me.

Lifting Melissa up to the throne room. Also praying that HS will give you His words to minister to her. Learn some scripture Jake. Start with the Romans road. I have to work, but will get back to that. Perhaps some one else can get that on here, or any other easy salvation verses, as well as a comfort verse for Jake.

God does and we keep praying that she is healed and strengthened by his presents that santan would be bound from her mind, her emotions, and her decisidecisions.

AMEN!!!!

I hope she stays okay and will keep praying and also what is up with everyone wanting to do that lately?

That's who we are!!!!!

Why on earth would you find that embarrassing? I love it. A notebook would be awesome. but I tend to be a read it and enjoy it, respond to it, and move on type of person. But... maybe i'll get motivated!

Jake,,,, triggers were written about last night and today, I find that music help me get out of the depression, other music puts me into the sinking feelings. Help her find good triggers and eliminate the bad ones.
