Hello and thank you
By: Pia Date: May 3, 2020, 11:16 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Hello to all on this forum......My name is Pia and I am in
Australia on the West Coast.......I am looking forward to first,
reading what all of you have been sharing, then hopefully, be
able to join in...........I have already received a lovely warm
welcome from a few people I have had the good fortune to
encounter previously and very much look forward to catching up
with.......I noticed at first glance on the page, that there had
barely been any comments since Feb.......So is that solely due
to the impact of the virus ?......Or are people having
difficulty staying on point with The Lord during this
?.........Statistically, someone would have had something to
say, during the almost 2 months of silence
hahahaha..........Anyhow, let us encourage ourselves and one
another in the great Love of our precious Lord.....This is the
ONE place, where tunnel vision is alright, as long as the vision
is actually Him and not something we try to substitute for
Him......As with all other things......... there is a way of
good and a way of evil, which is important when it comes to
tunnel vision, because there is no where to turn, if we have
stepped the wrong way, even a little........But keeping our eyes
firmly fixed upon the very face of Jesus, which we can easily do
in our minds, fixed and convinced of His great Love for us
.....that is a tunnel vision I would suggest, is a fine
one........
Life, everything around us, shows us there are ' seasons ' of
things, of all things.....there are and will be quiet times with
/ in The Lord and even among brethren, it is unavoidable, so we
shouldn't let it bother us.........But let us also remember that
we can choose a season for heartfelt Thanksgiving and great
Praise to our wondrous Savior, who has done ever so much, for
each and every one of us.......It is also the surest way of
entering His presence , and when there, just 'soak ' it up, ALL
you can take.......If our hearts are truly in it, we do it out
of respect for Him, but as in all things that He does...... if
our hearts ARE truly in it, it also has an enormous benefit to
us, and is extremely uplifting.........Best of all, is when a
small group of like minded people come together with their
hearts open and full of praise for Him.........It can truly be
as if the very air is different.......I say a small group, as
the bigger the group the more difficult it is, for everyone to
be of one accord, which is needed for this......I sure hope we
can all be encouraging to one another here, as it is not
something I find too much of anywhere these days lol
.......Looking forward to this.....

Good morning Pia ......
The forum goes through phases , it’s only recently been ‘ reused
‘ ....a group of us from CB wanted a quiet place to meet without
all the negatives that come from a larger forum. Helen then got
banned from the forum because of inviting people here, I
followed ......it was more active back in feb when that all
happened......but it tends to fluctuate. Helen and I we’re both
asked to rejoin CB, which for me was amazing timing as God
really used a conversation with someone there to move me forward
- she had ana amazing word from the Lord for me that instantly
released me from years of doubt about something - then I started
to hear songs in my heart, a constant song as if it was a prayer
.....never experienced that before ......so I am kind of on a
bit of a different journey at the moment. Learning to be ‘ a
child ‘ , rather than the ‘ parent ‘
I must admit that I haven’t been very active here ......back to
work after a break so my time is sometimes restrictive for
trying to keep up with more than one place ......tiredness
sometimes gets in the way as well.
We have encountered each other in the past on different forums,
cannot remember where or when, but I have it in my memory that I
always liked your posts xx
I have to go to work soon, but just wanted to say Hello ........
I am presuming that you are on lockdown .......I am a key
worker, so life is not as limited as I do at least have a normal
work life ! ( well as normal as it can be with 2m distancing
and PPE, limited buses and no costa coffee on route ! )

Really hello to you Pia,
While I understood I really missed your posts when you were not
there on CB to post any more. Over there I have been asked to
help a certain member from another country and it has been
wearing on me. He a young unmarried man and his situation and
question are a strain on me along with everything else. When
they put out my old pastor [now 94] in late 2018 and I followed
in support of him, it put me in a place where I cannot remember
being before. Now talking to this young man is stretching me,
but God is able to stretch even when alone I cannot. I had
prayed for God to lead me thinking that perhaps he would put me
in another physical church, but from what I have seen there
aren't any around where I would fit in... or that they would let
me fit in without compromise. Carry on there sister. Give God
the glory! John

Hello Pia
I'm glad that you have lots to read on here, because the
postings are very low these day...most people have seemingly
quit now...even mjrhealth is not around here much either.
Maybe if we check on here now and again we will find that it
will once again spring back to life again!
Only the Lord can build His House , we can't. [emoji4]
Stay safe and be blessed.

Hi David, Helen Amadeus and Rita.
hahaha, just had to get help to do this, oh boy I feel quite
dense when it comes to computers, still to this day.
I came across these by accident really, so yeah, I'm not sure
yet of the navigation of this..
Just wanted to drop a quick hello here, so you know I'm still
here.....Had a few crazy busy days, out of the blue, actually
for almost an entire week...Anyway, will try to get on this a
little later.....David has to help with computer as it's doing
some rather odd things....Isn't it amazing, he can do that from
ca. 4000 km's away lol..
God bless you, each one........Pia
