Peacemaker,
Josepha is changing and one can clearly see that the Lord is working in her life....Praise God. I am so glad that we serve a God of second chances...sometimes more.
I'll always remember Gingercat...always arguing and debating...if she saw white, I saw black. I look back now and realize that Gingercat taught me a valuable lesson...the lessons of forgiveness and love. She taught me how to keep my patience (Okay, so I still loose it a little) in spite of what has been said to you. She taught me to attack the issues in the discussions and not the poster. But most importantly Gingercat taught me to sing Babylon as she so often did at home. Teach much, witness to others about Christ with love, and always have a ready smile and a warm hug for someone that is willing to come home to God.
Gods Blessings,
Al

I agree, that is a big reason why I wanted to know how in the world that others thought she was those others, she might be a diffrent person. She is doing good at less with me so far, I havent fellowed her around to see what she is doing with others, I am just not into that. The other night I was praying and G-d told me to jearnal that one down, I was praying about this very thing....because I was given a big time pain from one of those names posted, and thought, boy I am tricked so easy....but this is what I went through in my Prayer...

OH Abba....I pray and ask how can I be fooled again and again on things. Those around me sometimes pretend to be what they are not, hiding undercover.
---at times It is because you shouldn't be looking around at them, but look in at yourself!
So...I shouldn't be feeling tricked at all....
Yes! For even if it is true, you should be at work on what I say to do, and get your eyes off other those around you!
My child it doesn't matter, if another has not been trustworthy, but that you strive to be trustworthy to me.
Oh, Abba.....
If my children would get their eyes focused back on me, and off one another, I would be able to lead them better!
I was thinking of blocking, and setting myself against one to protect myself...
a....and you yet you haven't! You keep your eyes on me!
Child it is my job to protect you, but at times you think things are going to cause harm to you, when i don't even let them come close! No harm is ever done! Am I not able!
Yes, daddy, you are fully able (crying)
Oh, you know that my children aren't acting as the children of the King, that they should be. Their actions are speaking to me! I see all of them, even what is driving it. Lies, tricks, intraping of those I have called for them to love!
Let me speak through you, and in time I will speak through them.
...yes....Lord!
I do think it is a bit wrong to go on what seems to be an attack against a person, it should be against the sin, in prayer, and having others join you, as posted already for another person.
AS Far as it goes for Josepha, those others would have raviled in this kind of fighting, but she hasnt even responded to the bad points, with more attackes back at them, making the hole thing fruitless on both sides! She is doing very good in that area!
Hugs to her!
