I Have To Go..

[rivqah]

Sorry, I have to leave for now. I am being slandered again on another forum and it's being tolerated by the moderators. Who knows when it will ever end. I did nothing is all I can say and have done everything I can think of to not be offensive. I am on facebook and I will continue reading though.

I just can't take anymore right now.

I'm sorry to hear that, Rebecca. Your welcome back here anytime. Always remember Christ Jesus and how He responded to His accusers.

Rebecca, as you said you'll continue reading, I wanted to share something....

I went to a former church I attended two weeks ago.

I committed a grievous sin while an attender of this church which tore through the church community like a wildfire and on all sides it wasn't handled as it should have been, but nonetheless, the ultimate blame falls on me for bringing it all on in the first place.

Well, I went to that church two weeks ago (for their prayer meeting) and the "welcome" was less than cordial. I was humiliated sitting there and afterwards said to this Pastor friend of mine that I wanted to leave as only one man came to physically say hello and the Pastor I was with heard one lady say hi from across the room.

I don't blame them however; what I did was horrendous and but not for the Grace of God I should be thrown into the fire to be burned a myriad times over!

Upon thinking of how they "welcomed" me I wrote to Eli and Eli said something that has stuck with me:

"...what is your attitude going to be towards them for their lack of grace? Resentment... or GRACE? Let the spiral be broken: choose grace."

I would say the same here, sister, that even though you feel reviled and harmed at the other Forum, to show much Grace; much more Grace than you can even give!

God can enable you and I to do this, Sister, and I know He will if we allow His Spirit to overtake us in a willingness to love even when we feel we're unloved.

The Lord keep you, Sister.

Thanks Dan.

I changed my mind. I can't let satan win.
