I've been around the internet for a long time. It's been about 20 or 21 years now. I am not sure what is a good way to introduce myself. I feel that people judge other people by what they write. I think sometimes I don't always come across in the most popular manner. You might find that I am a weird guy. Judging by how I often get treated online, I am always the one that is at fault for my issues. If I feel that I need to push back on that, people just get mean. I am currently leaving another "Christian" forum. Because I often like to make prayer requests over issues that I feel that only God can help me. But what often happens is that other people seem to think they got the answers, because they can find some scripture in the Bible. Never mind the fact even when you know all the correct scriptures it is not always easy to apply them to one's life. This is often times why I ask for prayer. I'm expecting God to help me in this area of my life! I hope that people on this forum will understand the difference between a prayer request, and someone who is asking for advice. Because if I run into this sort of problem again, and I have ran into on two different Christian forums, I will probably just quietly delete my account and leave. Because I did not join to defend myself, in a prayer thread. Now, If I'm crazy enough to engage in a debate, then in that case I am expected to defend my position, and I understand that.
I want everyone to know, and respect the fact that I am joining here with some frustration on my shoulders. This does not mean that I'm easily angered. The main thing that angers me is when people disrespect me, and I haft to endure the same junk over and over and over again. That is when I start to feel some resentment.
I do believe in forgiveness. But I also believe that forgiveness and emotional/spiritual healing can be a real process, depending on what caused the damage. Jesus commands forgiveness but I'm not God like He is. I am a follower of His, and I am always trying to grow and become more like him. I have not arrived yet, and I hope that acknowledging that you will understand that I think that makes me humble. At least that is what I hope.
