I'm so sorry you have had to go through this. I honestly don't understand why things like this happen - esp to people who are so desperately crying out to Him.

Your transparency is very refreshing.<br /><br />Oddly enough, the day before I read this I was thinking just that: Where was I a year ago.. 2 years ago.. and so on. It is always encouraging & faith building to see what God has brought us through. I know it would help me to meditate more on the goodness of God that I've seen in my life.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10257957184151974089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34004827.post-5096952586542940182009-07-13T07:35:59.296-05:002009-07-13T07:35:59.296-05:00You are so amazing, Beautiful Emily!

(everyone gasp!) 1st Corinthians 5:11-13; Paul is speaking to the Corinthian church. "But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or swindler-not even to eat with such a one. For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those INSIDE the church whom you are to judge? God judges those outside. Purge the evil person from among you." <BR/>Luke 17:3 says "Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.." <BR/>I thank God for the Godly brothers and sisters I have that keep me in check. I continually pray that my response to them would not be one made out of self defense, but that I would humbly accept it and pray about it. <BR/><BR/>No one is as defensive about something as they are when it is true.Mistyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14825983501705862024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34004827.post-33579668378318473782009-03-03T20:15:00.000-05:002009-03-03T20:15:00.000-05:00That video is awesome, Emily.
