ChristiansUnite Forums

Hi

Just dropped in from England. I think God is awesome but I guess all you others here do too. I have grown in some many ways since handing my life over to Jesus, I couldnt believe it when He took it, I thought it was worthless.

I have had 2 poetry books published about my faith and living with mental illness. I would dearly love to break down the taboo there. I hope God will help me build up on my skills and use my words not only to help me but others too.

Apart from that, my dream is one day to get a nice house in the country where I can grow a few veg and keep some ducks maybe, I would love it to be near a river too, bliss.

If you want to know more about I have wrote a testimony too.

Welcome to Christians Unite, pud. I will check out your testimony. I hope you will enjoy the fellowship here as much as I do. There are some really great Christians here.

Hello pud, and welcome to Christians Unite forums. Theres a bunch of greattttt! Christians here.

Resting in the hands, of the Lord.

Psalms 24:1-2 NASB  A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD'S, and all it contains, The world, and those who dwell in it.  For He has founded it upon the seas And established it upon the rivers.

Thank you all for such warm welcomes. I do hope to become more involved here over the next couple of weeks/months.

Hi New Christian in England!!
I am from Michigan, but my mother was born in Harrogate (up North England).  She died when I was 17 but I did get to learn about my heritage before she did.  Welcome to the forum!!! :)

Hi Maura

Good to hear from you. I live in Rochdale which isn't too far from Manchester, which in turn isn't that far from Harrogate. I have never been myself (driven through though) but I believe it is a really beautiful place full of old buildings.

Its really lovely.   They filmed "all creatures great and small" there.  By James Harriot.  Its very hilly as well.  I remember getting really car sick because of all the hills!  LOL...

Poetess is, in fact, a real word. I was surprised myself when I looked it up.

Hi Lee, Welcome to the forum. There are some great Christians here and we do have a lot of good times in fellowship. Take your time, look around, jump in and have a good time and if you have any difficulties just ask. We all will be glad to help you out as much as we can.

Hello Lee,

WELCOME!! I sincerely hope that you enjoy the Christian fellowship here.


You'll get used to things pretty quickly, so don't worry about a few problems with the forum commands. You really don't have to worry about setting the fonts or doing any of the more difficult things unless you want to do something fancy. When you get ready, there are some help files in the questions and answers section.

Just starting out, all you really have to worry about is typing and hitting "Post".

Love in Christ,
Tom

3 John 1:2-4 NASB  Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers. For I was very glad when brethren came and testified to your truth, that is, how you are walking in truth. I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children walking in the truth.

sample and a big road scrapper crushed him.but later  and good long while i thought of his wors on that last day we had together(he said i want to be there to welcome you to the lords house )) so he knew that day or earlier he was going to die.he didnt get to be a minister but he still got the job the good lord wanted him to take,and one of his biggest goals was to get me in church.he was not here when i accepted god and gave my testiomonial and he want be here to see me (BAPTIZED ON NOV.17 2005) BUT HE HAS A RING SIDE SEAT AND I CAN HEAR HIM SAYING WECOME HOME DAD)my minister told me that may have been(Michaels) job on earth to get me into church and when had done his job GOD wanted him home with him,sorry about the length but this was part of my testomonial and want till you hear the story on how i prayed fffor the lord to find and send me to a church.i know my son is happy every time i read my bible,or get on my knees and thats hard since i dont have real knees but just the same i do it no matter the pain i have fo my pain is nothing to the pain our lord suffered thru for us and the least i can do is suffer just a little for him.im sorry about the book i promise i will keep the next ones shorter i promise,bless all of you for listing to a old man ramble on.but on nov.17. in a couple of days i will be washed in the blood of our lord and savior and i ask for your prayers to keep me strong in the faith of our lord   and to worship him as i saw my son do 3 or 4 times a day when he was not working and i wouldnt be surprised if he didnt do it at work,i hope for the same amount of dedication to the lord he had.bless all of you and your famlies and dont waste time with your loved ones you never know when the lord is going to call them home,i wish i had told my son one last time i loved him and was so proud of him,if you all have children go to them and hold them and tell them you love them and hug them for me also.thanks  dniels-faith (lee)

Hi Lee,

Don't worry about the length of your posts. When it comes to such a sad yet wonderful testimony as yours I enjoyed reading every word of it. I am terribly sorry to hear about your losing your son in that manner but it is wonderful that he is in heaven and the you will be able to rejoin him one day.

Welcome to the forum Pud. You will like it here, great wonderful Christian fellowship. I pray that you will share some of your poetry with us when you're ready :)

Hi daniels-faith, and welcome to the forum. You will eventually learn how to work with this contraption to change fonts, color add images and so on. Believe me I'm still learning. I also got a lot of help from my fellow Christian friends here at the forum. I also use the preview button at the bottom of the message box to see if whatever I'm trying to do worked or not, if not then I just keep trying till I get it right.  :D  :D

Daniels-Faith,

AMEN BROTHER LEE!!!

Your testimony was beautiful. I give thanks that you now belong to JESUS. The Blood of JESUS on the Cross has washed our sins away and bought us, rescuing us from the curse of sin. We can't see each other over the Internet, but we are Brothers in Christ. Lee, that is such a beautiful thing to think about. Brother, I will be praying that you grow in the strength of God's Word and your joy in JESUS will grow each day. God's GIFT to us is priceless.

Thanks be unto GOD for HIS unspeakable GIFT!, JESUS CHRIST, our Lord and Saviour forever!

Love in Christ,
Tom

Ephesians 3:14-19 NASB  For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.

Hi

Saphire thankyou so much for checking out the poetess bit.

Lee your testimony is inspiring, I dont think you need to feel that you should condense it into as few words as possible. Although only new here I would say, feel free to speak out.

I will perhaps share some of my poetry over the next couple of weeks.

AMEN PUD!

You are completely correct. Everyone is different here, and speaking from the heart helps all of us, the lost and the saved. So, the length of the post doesn't make any difference to us.

I love Christian poetry, especially the type that inspires Christians to move forward in the Will of God. In fact, there are many beautiful portions of the Holy Bible that are much like poetry. We do have a special area on the forum for poetry and prose, so many would welcome your poetry.

Love In Christ,
Tom

Philippians 1:21-22 NASB  For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.  But if I am to live on in the flesh, this will mean fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which to choose.
