Meditation vs Prayer - Page 17

not at all...people and opinions are important...i just think that some of the opinions would loose audiences if were spoken...online u put it out there and someone would eventually respond....i just wish there was at least a definitive point to some of this, thats all....

I love the story of the hayseed who stops for lunch
at a big city restaurant while in town to purchase
supplies for farm and family. A quartet of smart mouthed
teenagers jammed in a near by booth heap ridicule on him for his
biboveralls.straw hat and the weed stickers in his socks.
When he bows for prayer over the warm meal just served him,
the juveniles laugh uproarious  and taunt, Hey Bumpkin,everybody where you come from do that?
After a sufficient enough pause to clear his mouth of the first bite of food,
the farmer responds, NOPE.THE PIGS DON'T.
THE PROPHET  declares this final generation of people
to be unthankful.   He chooses a word which denotes without a gracious or grateful response.
This swine like attribute apparently is quite offensive to God.
Paul says that a key reason all of mankind stands condemned before God
is that,although they knew God,they neither glorified Him as God nor gave thanks to Him.
These self loving arrogant.slanderous people.do not possess the character quality which motivates Farmer John to bow
before his  meal

gouda whats yr problem with pigs, you muslim?

haven't you watched babe? piggies wiggies are cute and they can herd sheep.

any animal that was good enough to get on noah's great ark is good enough for me.

and what's with the farmer - the guy makes his money off pigs to pay for his meal but then disrespects that which provides for him. did the farmer ever bow in prayer over the genocide of the native american indians he displaced from THEIR land, or bow over the destruction of the flaura and fauna he destroyed in order to get the land to raise his pigs which fund his lifestyle so he can make disparaging remarks about them?

all this just because pigs don't agree to having their throats cut while the sheep do.

and BTW these are not the last days, for you yes but the world was here long before you were and will be long after yr gone, in fact you will be forgotten just as soon as this thread gets pushed over to a new page.

and yes we might be unthankful but you are no prophet - yr just a scared, foul mouth hater....of pigs.

Jesus the Lamb of God gave his life without a fight he gave it freely he surrendered willingly.

Dear God,I realize I have been ignoring a lot of signs YOU'VE been giving me,
signs designed to get my attention and bring me into a close relationship
with YOU before the opportunity is gone.Here I am I surrender.
I confess the many things I have done that displease you.
Please forgive me.Lord Jesus I place my trust in You as my rescuer.
I give YOU control of my life right now.
Give me supernatural power to be the kind of person You want me to be
regardless  of what challenges I may face.
Thank You for hearing my prayer an answering it.
I gratefully accept Your free gift of eternal life.

Take a deep breath and think about what you just prayed.
Great feeling,isn't it.  God bless you.I trust you will never be the same.
