The A NEW LAW was taking form...

How about this one~ Think I'm getting hungry... Pineapple-Ham anyone? Juicey, salty, meaty & sweet...

Nicely put DesertVis... and here I just had the ignore feature on...

Sounds beautiful TempleLady~

Now THIS IS MY KIND OF PIZZA PIE~! T-bone taught me how to do this... I think... A vegetarian asparagus, red bell pepper and yellow onion pizza

It's sounding dangerous Pete!

Wonder if it would help to SPEAK TO THEIR MANAGER? And if that person can't help... who's THEIR SUPERVISOR?.... and so forth... that's what my husband does... seems to get results for him.

Yeah, OM... I know It's such a pretty song too. Jerry Ray has some beautiful piano arrangements for 70 Hymns... 'World's Greatest Hymns for Piano & Voice' A book I spent hours & hours playing from after our exit in 2002 :) It felt good to finally STEP OUT of TWI's mind set...

Hello OM :) Yes, I know that song... Being in from 81-02... AND I had even heard it sung... "TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST CHRIST JESUS " :( (Just let me understand, is this what you were referring to? That the word 'Jesus' was used in songs? Most songs I heard were being changed to be 'correct', this particular song was AVOIDED by many BC & HFC, along w/ other songs they THOUGHT didn’t FIT w/ the PRESENT TRUTH/DOCTRINE anymore) I have the music, played it many times, accompanied on piano during fellowships & branch meetings... It was during the late 90's that NEW songs were written by corps guys @ HQ, to FIT the theme's and teachings each year. Most of 'these' songs were specific to 'those in the household'... Trust & Obey was sung often by the Chorus Choir, and it helped to keep people in a simple mind set, 'in that household' My favorite 'old hymn' is 'Give of your best to the Master' by Mrs. Charles Barnard (wonderful, dramatic melody) Give of your best to the Master Give of the strength of your youth Throw your soul's fresh, glowing ardor Into the battle for truth Jesus has set the example Dauntless was He, young and brave Give Him your loyal devotion Give Him the best that you have Give of your best to the master * (refrain) Give of the strength of your youth Clad in salvation's full armor Join in the battle for truth Give of your best to the Master Give Him first place in your heart Give Him first place in your service Consecrate every part Give, and to you shall be given God His beloved Son gave Gratefully seeking to serve Him Give Him the best that you have *refrain Give of your best to the Master Naught else is worthy His love He gave Himself for your ransom Gave up His glory above Laid down His life without murmur You from sin's ruin to save Give Him your heart's adoration Give Him the best that you have

I really Don't Like War People that risk their lives and don't get paid what their worth An industry that we could live without, making more than those that risk their lives~

Maybe a candle should be lit in here

Has CK left something behind again? What the heck... Isa 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Or... maybe this will help: sorry... couldn't resist

oops... posted the same thing twice.... :)

If a FORMAL APOLOGY were made by TWI.... I'd be WARY... Perhaps UNCERTAIN.... CAUTIOUS.... SUSPECIOUS.... BECAUSE IF HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF..... I DON'T WANT TO GET 'BIT' AGAIN.....

Christine is GEORGEOUS! What a neat picture... the water in the background looks like 'wings'... awesome! :)

Bramble, your comment here, sparked something from long ago. It seems my lack of communication and people skills made it TEMPTING for me to believe I needed what the TWI folks were offering? Two constants for me growing up, was that my Mother was always home, and, we would probably NOT talk about the events of the day in any detail. Without COMMUNICATION, learning and practicing THINKING skills, there was very little growth. I was somewhat 'empty' and insecure (IMMATURE), susceptible to groups like TWI... just so happened they got to me first. TWI SAID to have BOLDNESS & CONFIDANCE in God. Reality within TWI was, to Trust their TEACHINGS, their LEADERSHIP… (STAYING IMMATURE) Anyone remember this song: TRUST AND OBEY, FOR THERE'S NO OTHER WAY TO BE HAPPY IN CHRIST, BUT TO TURST AND OBEY~ a song sang by the ‘chorus choir’, an original written by Rev J H Sammis copyright 1921... And yes, JESUS had been changed to CHRIST, to FIT TWI teachings

For this type of response: They should have an exception... for these "VERY UNUSUAL OR RARE" situations!

Well... I really DON'T LIKE: Lying Drugs Lazyness Mean People the fat that keeps settling on my butt Non-communicating husband Stinky garbage can in the Summer Customer Service that have too many prompts before reaching a real person Kids playing screened games all day Think that covers everything
