OT: Religious so don't read if you don't believe.
Thank you Jani for posting this. I liked it very much. I know what you mean by being afraid of posting and getting slammed. I know you meant well dear and I hope to see you posting more after your wonderful surgery tomorrow. Good Luck to you and I wish you the very best. I am so happy for you. It is truly the start of a new life.
A great big hug from me to you,
Sandy
(at goal in 8 months...you'll soon be there too, Sweetie)

Jani, God bless you. Thank you for posting this.
I for one see nothing wrong with your thread title. As a believer in our Lord Jesus Christ, I know you can not satisfy everyone. So choose to satisfy Him.
I used to post a thread with my daily Bible readings, just to hold me accountable. I upset many people by posting it, but still posted it. No one is forcing anyone to read, or not read any thread. It is their choice. I stopped posting my readings because no one else was reading the thread. Originally I had a few people reading with me on a daily basis. I am still going through the Bible. Staying up to date. This is by far the furthest I have ever gone.

Beautiful Jani...I've read this before but it's always good to revisit.
You warned people on your title so no one should blast you for posting this.
I'm not religious, I'm spiritual. Was born/raised a Catholic. Very active in the Catholic Church until my mom died, a few years later I joined a wonderful non-denominational church named St. Andrew Community Church. Pastor is my favorite ex-Catholic priest. Very spiritual church. My hubby is getting use to my church, he is Christian Reformed or used to be or still is...doesn't matter to me anyway. I do believe, have faith and even more important live my life on this earth the way I think God would want me to...by serving others and just being a good person. Very simple. I try to keep my life simple.
On a lighter note, good luck with surgery. You are going to do great. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
