what are the spiritual and physical benefits? and how do you do it for God? what do you actually do.. pray whenever you get hungry?

Thank you Ninja for your post and for reminding me that I don't need to go back to something harmful. The whole thing really was harmful and not worth it. Besides, I am coming to terms with the fact that they way he treated me at the end puts him in jerk catagory. I am closer to getting over...

I am currrently in the middle of a ten day cleanse/fast. its eating nothing except limited amounts fruits, vegs, and water for ten days. I wanted to see if there was any truth to the "detox" claims.. not to lose weight but to see if I supposedly had increased energy, etc. when i was done. so...

What is everyones opinion on detox/cleansing diets? Specifically Jordan Rubins ten day summer cleanse? you basically eat only fruit and vegetables for ten days. what about the whole concept of cleansing in general?

explain what you mean by 'difficult to understand'? i am not gay and never have been but i have often wondered if its true that people really are born that way.. is it not true that the brains of gays and bisexuals are wired differently? i have friends that are gay and i have a really hard time...

I think it makes sense that some people feel love deeper than others. I am not typically like this. I am fine today, just had a rough two days with it. I will get over this. I have NO IDEA what he thinks or feels.. he is so full of mixed signals, I am pretty sure he doesn't even know what he...

I feel like I am backsliding. I saw him on Sunday at church like normal and I have thought about him NONSTOP since then. I cried my eyes out on Sun when I got home because I felt so alone, angry, and sad.What in the world is going on?! Its been three months now since we stopped seeing each...

Thanks guys.. I will not forget this thread, Ninja :) In fact, I may have to come back to it to read my own writing when I am tempted by this guy again.. I have a feeling its going to come back around again.. based on some of his recent behaviors toward me. I have to be ready and remember the...

I think we have to reach a point where we are willing to totally surrender to Gods will for our lives. Even if it means being single.. not only saying it BUT MEANING IT. the thought that keeps going through my mind in quiet time is that any plan God has for me is way better than any plan I had...

hello yes, I have some updates.. thanks so much for asking and for all of the encouraging words! I really like how a previous post mentioned "emotional purity"... i have not thought about it in those terms until now. And it is such a good thought because we cannot wholly and passionatly serve...

So I find out today my job is ending in four months.. The first person I wanted to call was this guy. I really just wanted to talk to him- way stupid, I know. I couldnt get him on the phone or he didnt answer or whatever the case was.. I dont know.- I tried to call three times and nothing. Now...

That is a great testimony. At what age did you meet him? I am guessing you have felt as I do in the past. The surrendering what we want in order to be blessed doesnt seem to apply to everyone. Lots of people get married in their mid twenties or younger and dont go through this. Lots of people...

How active are demons in our day to day life? How do you know if one is oppessing you and how do you get rid of it? How real is this?

Thanks Alabaster :) But... how do I know God does not intend for me to stay single forever?

Glad you are doing good! As far as being lonely.. I know plenty of married people who are lonely. Marriage and dating is not the cure for that, as we know. If it were, people would not have affairs. Im sure you know that, just wanted to put it out there.
