In light of the events of the day, my heart is heavy and burdened. It has caused me to sit quietly for a few minutes today and reflect. I have Pastored churches from 30 members to 300 members for the last 18 years, and today I have seen the faces of each and every one of those folks. I have watched many of those walk down the aisle and give their heart to Jesus, and have rejoiced with them. But, I have also watched as many rejected Christ and walked out the door unchanged and I can sense the heartbreak even now as if it were yesterday. I said all of that to say this, I cant recall anything that caused my heart to ache as bad until today......................................................................................................................................................................................Tonight as I fall on my face and make my petitions to God for His Grace, I will be praying for each and everyone on this forum. I dont know hardly anyone on here but God does and I will be praying for you and your families. From the Auburn fans to the dog hunters to the cut and paste guys and beyond, May God Bless you and keep you under His wings. Tim

Thanks Tim. Back at ya.

Thank you, Brother. I covet your prayers.

The best post I have ever read on aldeer by far. Thank you very much.

Thankyou

Our World is deteriorating at an unprecedented pace.

As long as we stand passively by and watch it, it will continue. I pray for the Lord to touch hearts and stimulate minds and call the Righteous to action against the encroaching evil!

I feel your agony as any moral man should. God bless you for your uplifting service. I greatly appreciate your prayer.

Tim, your bit of attempted humor in what was a special post is entirely misplaced and unecessary. The situation is a little too tragic for this.

From Auburn Fans to dog hunters?!?!?!?!? Are you putting AU Fans and dog hunters on the same or opposite ends of the spectrum? Where's that coming from? Cut-n-paste guys? Huh?

Ambivalent about your post. Certainly you're not being facetious about any tragedy are you?

Oh well.... not giving it much more thought.

I didn't read into his post as being factious. I took it as all the petty arguments that take place around here don't matter in the eyes of our Lord. And he will be lifting everyone up no matter how far apart his views and beliefs are on some of the most debated topics on Aldeer.

That was the way I took it as well.

Even though I did notice his prejudice in what he considered 'bad guys'........

But, I chose to overlook it in sight of the obvious good intent.

This is the heart of the post. Tim will lift us all to a Holy God that sits on a throne called Grace and a seat called Mercy.

Thank you Tim.

My intent was that even though we are a group of such diversity that God knows us all and loves in spite of our different views. There was no attempt at humour or no attempt to be facecius. I do apologize if I offended anyone for asking God to Bless them.

If you did offend anyone for asking God to Bless them, then I will join with you and ask God to Bless them too. I ask God to send revival to this once great country.
