I feel bad that it upsets people but I must obey. Glynis I think you sum it up well when you say that we just need to obey God in whatever he has called us to do . He knows best, and He has planned it all out so there would be some of each of us. We need to uphold each other as we obey. It is not easy whether God has called us to be front liners or support staff. We are all on the same team.<br /><br />Onward!<br />Pam Mytroenfudge4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16295705620837466292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-33428931218093596982014-03-08T09:39:39.715-07:002014-03-08T09:39:39.715-07:00Glynis,

In fact, this is so much like me that I wish I could copy and paste this into my blog post for March 11th. Thanks for being an encouragement to me today.Connie Mae Inglishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988103819012472275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-7210897062216539842014-03-08T09:38:21.108-07:002014-03-08T09:38:21.108-07:00From what I 'see' of you here online, Glyn...From what I 'see' of you here online, Glynis, you are no wimp. It takes boldness to speak truth in any genre, including humour, and I think you have that in spades.<br /><br />He needs all of us doing what we do best. And He needs his gentle folk as much as he needs his bold-stand-up warrior folk to round out the work of the ministry to the saints and the world at large.<br /><br />I'll never forget the time when I was chatting with a woman I met who was 'larger than life' in ways that weren't just physical -- her whole personality was more brassy. She told me once that she'd been talking to the Lord about how she wished she could be more gentle in her mannerisms and not be such a 'bull in a china shop'.<br /><br />He told her that He didn't need more gentle people, that He wanted her as she was -- He had lots of the gentler version, that He needed a few bold ones like her.<br /><br />She settled into that and decided to just be who she was. I never forgot that. That must go for writing you, eh?<br /><br />BTW, I like how you end your posting, that when we're paying attention to Him we can't go wrong.<br />Indeed! Thanks, Glynis!<br /><br />Brenda<br />Blog Moderator<br />Brenda @ Its A Beautiful Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02955486477303938670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-40770926705132197962014-03-08T08:11:31.553-07:002014-03-08T08:11:31.553-07:00I think you're just fine the way you are.

Making waves to me just causes division. And the Lord said we were to be in unity.<br />So I sit with you and others, praying for peace and unity where we worship our Lord in love and faith.<br />Blessings,<br />JanisJanis Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10863083811890899986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-42326811419523878442014-03-07T09:55:17.271-07:002014-03-07T09:55:17.271-07:00I'm getting comfortable beside you and Bobbi o...I'm getting comfortable beside you and Bobbi on that fence. While there are some things that are not debatable, there is still plenty of room for differences of opinion on certain topics within Christian circles, as well.

If the Lord wants me to write something I get an ongoing nudge in my heart that keeps coming back. So far, no nudging about writing controversial things. I'm with you on that.

I also agree that as long as we're listening to that still, small voice and being obedient to it, we're on the right track. If we were all rabble rousers the world would be a scary place!Ruth L.
