Testimonies
Are you asking God why bad things are happening to you? Are you wondering, Why me, Lord? It's been stated that you wouldn't have a Testimony without a "test". In the Bible in James 1:2-4, it says, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." Please tell us your Testimony here so that others may join you in praising the Lord.

Unequally Yoked
In the Bible, in 2 Corinthians 6:14, it says, "Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness?

| Domestic Violence |
|
 |
Verbal Abuse
Many people suffer from verbal abuse with swearing and name calling, as well as, simple words such as being called "stupid", or "can't you do anything right?", or "you'll never amount to anything". This is where it all begins, and from here you will suffer from psychological and emotional abuse. Please tell us your story and help others going through this terrible, and sometimes daily form of Domestic Violence.

Psychological And Emotional Abuse
This is a very difficult type of abuse to report, because there are no physical marks, just the deep marks on your heart. Sometimes someone may try to make you feel like you are imagining something, like an affair. Someone may be trying to make you think that you are losing your mind, in an attempt to take further control over you. This is all so emotionally draining, that you end up getting weaker and weaker, and more under the control of someone who is abusing you. Please tell us your story so that you can get some responses from others to make you strong again to fight back against the evil that is controlling your life.

Financial Abuse
This form of abuse is mostly felt by women who are being controlled by a man, usually their husbands, who are controlling them with money. They withhold money to keep the women "in line" and under their control. Many women are home raising the children and the husbands are out working. Unfortunately, a woman becomes dependent on the man for that support, and when other forms of abuse are present, then they feel trapped and cannot leave the relationship due to the financial entrapment that they are in. Please tell us if you are also suffering from this type of abuse, as there are others who understand what you are going through.

Sexual Abuse
This type of abuse is very frightening and sick. Some men may use sex to reward or punish a woman, and to further be in control of her. Some sexual abuse is experienced by children and that is very sickening. Please try to share your story and find some help from others who have survived this severe type of abuse.

Physical Abuse
First it starts out with the hurtful words that cause you the emotional distress. The yelling and fighting gets to be on a daily or regular basis. Next thing you know it, the pushing and shoving begins which leads to the most violent abuse which is physical abuse. Are you being hit and beaten up at the hands of another person or a loved one? Are you having to cover up bruises, black eyes, and broken bones? Are you being threatened with a gun, knife, or other weapon? Please tell us your horrifying story and hopefully others who have survived this type of abuse will give you some hope and encouragement.

One day it will be too late to apologize to or forgive someone, because they won't be here anymore. Life is short...Eternity is Forever. Practice your letter of apology or your letter of forgiveness here and hopefully it will make it easier for you to experience forgiveness with the person to whom it's intended for. Please tell us your story and maybe others will write words of encouragement to help you on the road to forgiveness. In the Bible, in Matthew 6:14, Jesus says: "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you."

Matthew 25:40
In the Bible, in Matthew 25:40, Jesus says, "Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it for one of the least of these My brethren, you did it for Me." Today, as many people's lives are affected by hurricanes and other natural disasters, there are many acts of kindness and services that people can do to help others in need. Even in our own local communities, there are homeless and sick people that need help. Please tell us what you and your family or organization are doing to help others in need, so that you can give other people ideas of what they can also do. Many people want to help out, but don't know where to start. You may post website links, addresses, or phone numbers here so that others can join forces in helping people in need. Give us your ideas for acts of kindness and service, then one day we'll all be wearing shirts that say, "We Work For The Lord".

| Being a Caregiver |
|
 |
Alzheimers Disease, Cancer, Dementia, Mental Illness, Quadriplegic, Polio, Paralysis, Stroke, Heart Attack, Multiple Sclerosis, Muscular Dystrophy etc
Are you a Caregiver taking care of a loved one afflicted by any of the above name illnesses or disabilities or any other illness? It is a very difficult time for your loved one, and also for you to see a parent, grandparent, spouse, child, or any loved one be afflicted by a chronic or terminal illness. Now it is your responsibility to take care of your loved one. Not only are you taking them to and from doctor's appointments or chemotherapy or radiation treatments, but you are now having to feed them, bath them, and change their diapers if they are in that latent stage of their life. Not only is it very sad to see a loved one suffer and slowly slip away from you and your family, but at the end of the day, after everything that you have lovingly done for them, they might not even know you or recognize you, causing you to feel great sadness and depression. Please tell us your story here and allow others to feel your pain and despair. There are many other Caregivers out there who can understand exactly how you feel. Hopefully, they will write their stories, as well, and give you some encouragement to get through another day for your loved one and their well-being, which God has entrusted to you. Your reward will be in Heaven, for in the Bible in Matthew 5:8, Jesus said, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God".

| Grieving the Loss of a Loved One |
|
 |
Sudden Loss and Gradual Loss
There are many ways in which we may have lost a loved one. No matter whether it is sudden or gradual, no loss is easy to take for those of us grieving that loss. In the case of a sudden loss, some people have died as a result of a Heart Attack, or Aneurysm, as well as, an automobile or motorcycle accident, even murder or suicide. In the case of a gradual loss, some people have died as a result of a terminal illness such as Cancer, Leukemia, Alzheimer's, or just old age. Some people are grieving long after the loved one has passed away because they never had a chance to say "I'm sorry", "You're forgiven", "I love you", or "Good-bye". Please tell your story here and let others feel your pain, so that from your experience, others will realize that they can actually say those 'unsaid words' to their loved ones who are still alive because they still have the chance to say them. Your story may help other people to be able to express their feelings to their loved ones while they still have the chance. In the Bible, in Matthew 5:4, Jesus said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." Please help others who are grieving a loss today.
