I knew that, from your profile page.
I live in Mansfield, what I was saying is that I wish I knew some peeps in Findlay that I could drop names for you. All the people I know who walk in this message are from Cleveland, Columbus and Mt Vernon. (I d…

Michelle Rhea said… - Rocco, I enjoy seeing your comments on Stasi's blog so I thought I'd stop by your profile page and see what else you've been writing/doing. Wow. Looks like you are really getting a handle on that "crazy little thing called love." Your thought for the day is, well, thought provoking...and wonderful. Thanks! May the Lord bless you with even more excellent stuff than this! :-)

- Yo Rocco,
Quick question about my chat functionality. After I enter my comments, is there a button or something to send it to the other person? I entered a few comments but never received a reply from two people. I just saw my entries up on the screen. Not anything from the people who I was trying to chat with.

- I so relate to your comment about needing Christmas to be filled with more than the tired religious routines, and focus on "what'd ya get for Christmas...?" It starts with our heart and as you said, seeking to love those around us throughout this season to be jolly.
Blessings,
Jeff

In It's about the Heart, you said:
It all boils down to who or what we are taking our heart to? Unless we take it to God, we will live a miserable life. The lesser lovers will never fully 'complete' us. They are designed not to. Over eating a snickers is just as much a sin is over drinking alcohol. How many verses are there about being a glutton? Yet, look at our society (the US). We have more over weight people then we do drunkards, but being over weight is OK for some reason? At least you won't get openly judged like those who occasionally drink.
It may seem that way, but as someone who has struggled with my weight all my life, I would have to disagree.
I have been in bondage to food since I was probably about 3 years old. I have alternated between putting on a lot of weight when my fears of men have taken control and abusing myself with anorexia and bulimia when I was afraid of rejection.
There are definitely unseen wounds that bring about the addictions in our society, and more and more people are getting hurt as the world moves further from God.
Through all my struggles I have felt the open judgment of others.
I guess it seems that whatever our bondage, no one else seems to be judged as severely as we are. I think it's a lie, but we make agreements with it anyway.
I am learning to love myself as I am. I have been making healthier choices in my diet and exercise regimen. And now, just when I am so eager to finally make it my lifestyle, I find that I am being hit with one illness after another that prevents me from daily exercise. Go figure! But I couldn't have made any of these changes if I hadn't found my healing and peace in Christ.
But you know what? I sometimes think that maybe God doesn't want me to be thin....at least perhaps not as thin as I would like to be. Sometimes I think He has another purpose for my body...to give warm, loving, smooshy hugs to hurting people all around me. (chuckle) I guess if this is what He wants me to be and do, then He'll also give me the ability to love and accept myself as a size 6+whatever.
As far as actual disease is concerned, I have no heart problems, diabetes, or high blood pressure and my cholesterol is actually quite good....even my doc was a bit surprised and very pleased! And all by the grace and mercy of God. Still, as I get older, I honestly want to be physically stronger so I really need to be able to exercise! And with God's help, I will.
I am especially grateful for one thing...the knowledge that God loves me just as I am.
This knowledge takes the twisted pressure off of me...the very thing that drives me to abuse my body.
And you're absolutely right...it IS all about the heart.
Thank you so much for sharing yours with us....

I just read a trustable heart.
Wow! Don't ya just LOVE it when God shows up?
You said in the beginning of the post that you wish you had the ability to write anything elegant. Perhaps you should look up the word elegant. (grin) By definition, you DO write elegantly.
But check out the Thesaurus. You'll find words like appropriate, effective, rich, and simple. Take note of all these words...especially the second entry on rich as well as the word simple. These are all synonyms for elegant and usually the very words we don't think about in connection to elegance.
The one line that really struck me in a trustable heart was this:
God was sitting there, looking out of the corner of His eye at me, a gentle, slight smile on His face.
Wow...talk about elegant!!!
:o)
What are we doing?

The things I've learned...incredible and heart-wrenching!
But thank you for your prayer. It's making a very good impact on this relationship and in all others.
I'm glad to know that your experiences were similar, but I feel disrespected by the haste in your words.
I am scheduled for a counseling session next week.
When I posted my thoughts here, I did not mean to say that this friend was here only for me…
Welcome Scott... I see you are pretty new to RH!!!

The best way to build endurance is to just keep pushing yourself to go further and or longer each time you run. I don't worry so much about how far I run...but rather how hard I run and how intense my run was. But, I'm not running for distance or tr…
Christ’s Love for You Endures
by Jeff Lardizabal
Amidst the falling stars,
Amidst the well of tears,
Amidst the broken dreams,
Christ’s love for you endures.
Against the weight of sin,
Against its darkened depths,
Over the shadowed walls,
His lo…
A place for all those who marvel in the creative genius that is the horse to tell stories, share pictures and experiences.
To connect with other brothers and sisters of Christ who are single. This is a great way to encourage, connect, and build community.
Can any of you horse lovers or horse owners give me some advice? As I wrote the other day my daughter loves horses. She has given up ever working with horses. After having to quit her volunteer job she has applied at a few horse ranches but no bites…
