Lovely words i wouldn’t say I’m religious, but I pray to our lord, wether it be me or someone else going through hard times. I believe in heaven, I also believe in spiritualism, I hold on to the fact we will all go to a better place I go to church (or even stand in my kitchen) to light candles for our loved ones who have passed, but I don’t believe we can shame ppl who don’t have the same beliefs. X

Thank you, Mrs J. You're right, shaming is not showing love, and Christ's kingdom is founded on love. If we are not loving, we are not Christlike and if we call ourselves Christian we are taking His name in vain! People need to see Christ in us to be drawn to Him, in our lives and our actions as well as in our words.

I would like to request prayer of healing for my husband. He is a contractor and today he got a couple of his fingers nailed together with the nail gun. He casually asked me to bring him the first aid kit since he needed Band-Aids when I brought him his lunch. Imagine my shock when he told me what happened!

Oh goodness. Did he go to the ER? My prayer will be for quick and thorough healing and no loss of use of his fingers.

Praying for your hubby! Sounds like my hubby. I won't even know he hurt himself until I see his homemade duct tape bandaid
And I hearted your post because of the quote, not your hubby getting hurt!

Reminds me of my dad. He was working on a car a month or two back and accidentally nearly took the tip of his finger off. It was sliced laterally through the fingernail, towards the pad of the finger, and was about half off.
He told my sister to get mom and get him to a hospital, but about ten minutes later, getting ready to go, he was all, "Nah, it'll probably be fine. Do we really need to go?"
So he said as my sister and I were leaving absolutely no room for argument and practically dragging/shoving him out the door.

He's fine now, by the way. The cut part of the nail has sloughed off by now, I think, and it never got infected or anything. It's healing nicely.

Honestly, though, men! Makes me wonder about my own (future, hopeful, prospective) husband!

My son was working on a car when the jack slipped. By God's amazing grace he was not killed, but he wears the scar on his back. No big deal. Other men can be big babies ... Maybe not so much when they are injured, I guess they have to be all macho and manly about that, but let them get a cold or the "flu," and my goodness, you'd think nobody in the history of the world had ever suffered so much! The sniffles, the aches, the fever, the pain! Oh my!

I don't know if I'd rather a man who makes a fuss over every little thing or one who acts like everything is just a scratch.
I really don't know. I mean, I don't really have the choice, but really. On the one hand, there's the guy who lets you know immediately whenever any little thing goes wrong (near-heart-attacks every other day, if he does a lot of stuff with his hands), but on the other hand, there's the type who is totally fine with something that would have me shrieking my head off and wrapping at least a yard of gauze around whatever's bleeding.
Well, whatever I end up with, I guess.

So true l! A little sniffle! My husband was killed in a car crash, so when my son had a car crash and suffered life changing injuries..I thank god his dad was looking down on him..he certainly had someone protecting him that night

Sorry to hear about the loss of your husband and your son's injuries. But we have not yet welcomed you to the thread! The OP has not been seen in a couple of years, so it's just us, keeping it going. We're glad you joined.
