Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

I love the way Paul summarizes what he'd been writing to the Ephesians.  In 4:29-5:2, he wrote:

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Okay, to summarize all the guidelines for Christian living he's been writing about , Paul seems to be saying, this is how you do it.


  • be kind
  • be compassionate
  • forgive
  • in other words, be like God, love like God

To find out if a stick is crooked, we should put it next to one that is straight.  God's Word is that Straight Stick.  How am I measuring up today, I wonder? :bible:

Solid words to strive towards, Kevin.
Walking by faith means you see God's hand even in the most difficult of circumstances.
