Well, I meant every word of it! sorry but I feel that way towards people in general I have never met a person that I hate.....and never will.
I guess I have been blessed with that......even if someone hurts me I forgive them and move on......that is what I am about.
Lindsey sorry but I am praying for you and have been you have the right to be yourself we all do and for me its to be kind to you no matter what you say think or feel towards me. and if you could only see yourself and how unique and loving you could be.
Rama you are loved and I am happy that we are friends even if it is one this BBS and we may never see each other or talk on the phone I still care for you and if you ever need a prayer said for you or a loving word said to you please feel free to let me know.
I will do whatever I can for who ever I can do it for. that is what God calls me to do.
I respect this kind devoutness in Christians a lot more than I find I'm able to respect the pseudo-Christians who profess to believing one thing but do another, or pick and choose which Godly laws to follow based on their wants of the moment. I went to a CRC college for a year, and the amount of this kind of Christianity was disturbing. I had a really hard time with it and ended up transferring because I just can't respect otherwise semi-intelligent people who close their minds to their own inconsistencies. I can't be friends with people I don't respect.
That said, I'll quote Rand and say, To say "I love you" one must first be able to say the "I."
Should I feel special when you say you love me if you're only saying it (and/or following through with the motions) because someone else, in this case God, told you to? When I go to my father's on holidays he always tells my 13 year old brother to give me a hug. It's all very cute, but am I touched when my brother gives me a hug as asked? No, because he wasn't doing it of his own volition. It's not the act itself, but the reason behind the act that gives it its significance. Words are similar in that words themselves are just sounds, it's the intention and meaning of the speaker that gives them their significance.
"I love you."
Why?
"Because God told me to."
Oh. That's nice.
