I believe in the supernatural and that God does supernatural intervention to assist us. However, I have never understood how some people have difficulty in just having faith and they seem to need to "see" things with natural eyes to truly know that God is there. I have seen the supernatural i.e. the frozen sewer unplugging when I was sick and prayed. I could feel the supernatural warmth of the Holy Spirit flowing down my body to thaw it. I believe in supernatural miracles. However, the next time it was frozen, I was able to fix it - I was not ill. I didn't expect to have the supernatural intervention every time. I don't think that was a lack of faith. God is not a genie - He is God! He can do all things! Faith is the substance of things not seen! I like your “supernatural” article.

This was the first time I have been in a service where the preaching happened first. I really liked that. I hadn't had time to settle in and get comfortable to the point of day dreaming. There sermon was full of meat but didn't take long to serve. I have to say that some of the best sermon's I have ever heard, have taken 30 minutes or less. Over the years I have been on both boards, but haven't done either in a very long time. I need to get back on at least one in the church I have chosen to be in. Thank you for that reminder.

]]> Comment on Financial Peace: God Has a Plan by mreveal http://www.wereveal.com/bible/its-monday/financial-peace-god-has-a-plan/comment-page-1/#comment-18 mreveal Tue, 17 Mar 2009 18:14:02 +0000 http://www.wereveal.com/?p=322#comment-18 I don't know how many times I have asked God to show me His Plan. But now that I think of it, I wanted to know because I wanted to "help" Him along with His Plan. Ha, like I could help. Several years ago, my Mom sent me a verse that I have kept close to my heart. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. A few years later I ran across Philippians 4:11 where Paul said he had learned to be content in whatever situation he was in. I put the two together and paraphrased it: I will be content because God has a plan for me. When you are content, you are able to live with the means God has given you and possibly be able to save for the future. I don’t know how many times I have asked God to show me His Plan.

]]> Comment on One World, One Dream: Intro by mreveal http://www.wereveal.com/bible/owod-intro/comment-page-1/#comment-11 mreveal Mon, 22 Sep 2008 17:24:36 +0000 http://www.wereveal.com/?p=131#comment-11 I am reminded of when you use to run track. The coach, who's name slips my mind, said to me one time that when he watched you race you would be passing everyone and getting close to the front and then you would look around and start slowing down. He said it was if you would say, "Oh, I am sorry I am passing you. I will slow down and we can cross the line together." He felt you had a lot more in you. Then you got mono and couldn't do track anymore. I often think that sometimes we look around us too much seeing what others are doing and change our pace accordingly. In doing so we loose out on what God has for us. He wants us to race full on to the finish line. Of course depending on the race sometimes we need pace our selves so we don't run out of steam and others we have to run as hard as we can the whole race. If we are able to inspire others in our race then all the better I am reminded of when you use to run track.

It wasn't until I got around to getting ready to publishing the article this morning I edited it on my computer, so I could do a quick spell check, look at the formatting, and add the numbered bullets. That app on the iPhone is rather handy!

]]> Comment on Why Macintosh? by mreveal http://www.wereveal.com/technology/why-macintosh/comment-page-1/#comment-8 mreveal Mon, 05 May 2008 17:08:08 +0000 http://www.wereveal.com/?p=11#comment-8 I never really knew all the technical explanation between the differences. This really helps me understand and look at things differently. I used a Mac for years until the business I worked for changed to PC's and windows. And then they were always less expensive. The thing about the windows being different really interested me. For myself, I always try to just close my document when I know I may use the application again. But sometimes I get click happy and close the whole thing. I have always said that a Mac stops you from doing things you don't want to do most of the time and this is just another example of a way it does that. Guess will have to start saving my pennies.

]]> Comment on Spam, E-mail, and Filters by mreveal http://www.wereveal.com/technology/spam-email-filters/comment-page-1/#comment-7 mreveal Sat, 03 May 2008 22:23:05 +0000 http://www.wereveal.com/?p=19#comment-7 I think being able to have my email filtered before it gets to my computer is the best way to go. I know with Postini, you are able to log in and see what it caught just in case it catches something you want. I have had filters on my computer but it seems to slow down everything. I have a gmail account and a hotmail account and I think the gmail account is filterd better. I don't get as much junk there.
