Christianity Oasis Forum


This forum is for those who are 18 years of age or older. This forum is a sanctuary for those who are experiencing trials and tribulation and seek words of wisdom, comfort and TRUTH from fellow Christians who have experienced similar trials and tribulation and have overcome them.

Fellowship

GOD is good! *Cheer* Prior to doing step 13, my husband came to visit me from Georgia, my son came to visit because his dad was here, and my brother's mother-in-law asked to come visit as well. I noticed that they all had a heavy heart. Something was bothering them and the Lord sent them my way. My husband who has been laid off for a while was just offered a position in Columbus, Ga. and although he needs the job he is not happy about where the job is. Then my son while visiting shared with me that he broke up with his girlfriend and although accepts full responsibilities for his actions his heart is broken. And finally, my sister-in-law's mother was depressed because she broke up with her boyfriend who is an alcoholic and relocated to Florida to get closer to her children. As you can imagine I had my hands full. :roll: But *PraiseGod* this gave me the opportunity to introduce them all to this wonderful website. For my husband he could read about patience and learn the biblical meaning of it; for my son and my friend they could read about broken hearts and learn the biblical meaning of that. Plus, I made sure that they all got big *hug5* from me so that they can feel the love.

This also gave me the opportunity to share with them what GOD has done for me since he led me to this website. Keep in mind, they all know who GOD is just like I did. They just don't have the relationship like I am working on now. As long as they were listening to me I kept talking about GOD, praising him, and thanking him. They could all see I was filled with the Holy Spirit. I shared all I knew thus far. I only *Pray* that they will go to the website on their own and seek the TRUTH.

After step 13, I now know it was no accident. GOD put us all together to fellowship and learn more about the TRUTH. He wants us all to trust him a 100%; he wants us to give ourselves completely to him; he wants to fill our hearts with the Holy Spirit; he is knocking at our door and waiting for us to let him in! Thank you Lord Jesus. *Amen2*

sleepless!!! I'm so excited sis...you are so right about God leading you here and how He is now able to use your healing as a witness to your family. God has a plan for all of us...and sometimes we can be so deep into the trials that we don't see the big picture...but Thank God that He does...as everything works out just as He knows it should.

I will be praying for all that you have shared with. I know if they will choose to come to the Oasis...they too will be blessed as you have. You've planted good seeds sis...now God will provide the increase...and may they come to love Him as much as you do.

luv ya sis
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.
