Yes, it was over the phone....but to finally hear his voice!

It reminded me of how much you guys helped when I was waking up.

Vickie, you were instrumental. You called me and it was good to hear a born-in/die hard call me a warrior for truth. My truth just happened to lie outside the bible. Well, not really. The bible (read Christ) pointed me that way.

I'm not the least bit concerned about doctrine. I would much rather break a man-made (read religious nut) law than hurt someone's feelings. Doctrine gives someone else control. Letting someone tell you what the bible supposedly says gives them control. Not again. I simply refrain from talking doctrine with folks.

Now, if anyone wants to just tell me how they are doing, or needs words of encouragement to get through this life........I'm your girl.
Wasblind???? Are you the same "Wasblind" that used to come to the forums before???? If so, welcome back! :giverose:

And if not, well...welcome to our board anyway, LOL! :heartbeat:
I am so jealous...I tried calling him a few times but all I ever got was voice mail...I miss him. Welcome Wasblind...I don't come here much anymore but it's nice to "see" you when I do!!

Good morning sis:

Thanx sis Dana for that info. Did I welcome you back? Forgive me if I haven't, pleeze :blush:

I'm a little late to "speak" with brother Gus, but if he "lurks in" every now and then he'll know there are a couple of single sisters still "fighting" over him in cyberspace after all these years! :love:

I'm jealous too, sis jammin, and your competion ain't goin no where!!! (hee hee) I don't recall ever even gettin a # :crybaby:

Pray Incessantly for One Another :grouphug:

Love You All Much :heartbeat::heartbeat::heartbeat:
sis

Gus was kind enough to share his # when I was so upset about Amber some years ago...I think it was after she accidentally killed someone while driving her truck. He said I could call him just to talk about it. He is so big hearted - and Jehovah-hearted-...you DEFINITELY still have competition!! I am overjoyed to hear from you Sis!! I sent you a PM with my e-mail address. Keep it handy...
