Why can some be so nasty and mean about their "laws"

I just need to vent because this is my blog. And you know what? I am a real person who gets a little bent out of shape sometimes......you know?

Why do some insist on coming back and being venomous? This whole time I have been trying to be kind and loving dealing with this whole skirt or no skirt thing and some insist on biting back. I leave it to God.

Yes, it is hurtful and my heart grieves. I just had to add to my post. I haven't even posted some of the comments because they are getting very nasty. Accusing me of being ungodly. How sad can some religious people be...so darn sad. :( This is a poison to the faith in our Lord Jesus.

Imagine how Jesus must have felt when those religious Jews went around talking bad about Jesus for being a lover to the sinner and yes, he broke the Law by doing good works on the sabbath and touching lepers and not washing his hands. These were the laws laid out in the scriptures and He broke them. The religious were MAD!! Unfortunately, today we have the same. Unbelievable!!

And please oh please understand my heart.....by no means am I promoting sin. My ladies who follow me, know me and I have nothing to hide. I don't know why this has bothered me so.....but it just proves once again what I have been feeling in my heart lately.

Hang in there friend! It's a silly argument, the Bible calls it "doubtful things." Really no point in arguing...praying that the Holy Spirit surrounds you with His peace!

Wow its so funny that you go off on a big lo ng post whenever I make a comment. Well it doesn't bother me. And me and you both know the comments weren't nasty they were proving you wrong and you didnt want to post them. And you twist everything i say and put words in my mouth. So its like talking to a wall. Wow this is so stupid, just go ahead and only post comments that agree with you, I don't know how you have this time to do this with 8 kids! The world is full of false teachings, thats why I cant come back to this blog.

Chris, because anytime someone is nasty, you are forced to examine your heart, your motives and such. Chris, I know that all the above is pure. Do not worry about what people say, you worry about what God wants you to say and do. If you lose followers oh well. It is a natural seperation and maybe one that needed to happen.

It gives you a little taste of how Jesus felt as he was mocked and insulted as he was on the cross, DYING for those VERY sins! I don't know how he did it? I get my feelings hurt over the slightest hint of meanness.

Chris, it bothers you because you are human. What hurts is that you were trying to be helpful (maybe giving someone permission to be set free from legalism) and instead you were viciously attacked (shame on you, you know who you are you) by a "sister or brother" in Christ. This person is obviously not promoting unity in the Body, which Jesus clearly outlined again and again in Scripture. If we disagree with one another, we shold do so in love.

Chris, I want you to know that I love you and think you are a wonderful, real Christian, mother who is doing her best to live a godly life.

to anonymous,

if you know love please exhibit it.
from reading your comments,I see
no love or understanding.
how can you call someone ungodly
and etc.if you don't know them
YOU ARE JUDGEMENTAL. HM-m-m-
Go figure.
maybe narrow minded or synical.
Some day you will mature and see,
hopefully, if you keep seeking GOD.

Joyful Mother wasn't very Joyful....

A short little post to let you know I AM OK!!  I know the last post was rather hopeless than hopeful.   I am doing much better and I do feel like there has been a bit of a breakthrough in my attitude.  I have been letting every little thing on this journey bother me so very much.  It doesn't matter what it wass....it was bothering me.  I was even snappy to my mother-in-law the other day and it wasn't very pretty or Christ Like at all!!  :(    I am so very thankful my mom-in-law loves me unconditionally and embraces me even when I am ugly.  Seriously!  I was letting everything bother me!!  I had been making myself out to be a burden or a "visitor" rather than a daughter.  I wasn't allowing myself to be accepted rather I was making myself out to be a burden.  A burden that no one had put on me.  I did this to myself by listening to the enemy's lies.  After a good talk with my mom-in-law and with the Lord, ...

What Makes us Better Mothers? How do we View others?

What makes us better mothers? Do you homeschool or send your kids to school? Do you cloth diaper, use disposables or both? Do you breastfeed, bottle feed or both? Do you home birth, hospital birth or done both? Do you natural birth, use epidurals, or done both? Do you cook with whole foods or open up a box of Kraft Mac and Cheese? Do you home church or are a member of mega church? Do you wear a head covering, long skirts or have short hair and wear trendy clothes? Do you do attachment parenting or let your babies cry to sleep? Do you have 2 children or 20? Do you use birth control or not? Do you live on your own land/farm or do you live in a small apartment? Do you work or stay home with the kids? Do you immunize or never dare to inject your child? I am going to be very transparent and open with you all. I don't know if it's just hormones but what I have swimming in my heart and mind lately needs to come out. So this is the case for my posting this side of me. I know we can ...

Turn that TV off!!

Finding time to blog has been a little tough lately.  I don't know why.  Maybe it's because I feel I don't have anything good to share but then again that would be totally out of character for me because I am one of those women who can talk your ear off for hours and share with you my life story.  Truly!  So.....not having anything to say is just a big excuse.....ok so maybe it is finding the time.  As of late, I've been really, really striving to do the best I can in being a good steward over my time, children, and homemaking.  My heart's desire is to have an orderly home, orderly children, and a peaceful atmosphere. There are those days where I dream of being in a place where life is a bit simple....where I don't have modern technology like computers, tv, game systems trying to grab the attention of my children.  I don't know why this is so easy to "default" to when a "break" is needed or when I need some "alone time" or j...
