Anyway, id love to get a husband and have children or do something usefull with myself but i feel a bit trapped.

I have a friend who wants something that they feel they deserve and they actually do, but they are not getting it and they are a little depressed because of it. i need a good scripture or quote to share with this person to give them hope and help them get their confidence back?

Knowing everything already, how is that god has given us free will?

If he know's everything, that means that the Future is predetermined. If the future is predetermined, is there such a thing as free will?

There can be no such thing as free will, if he already knows what will happen.

If god is omniscient, then he created us all to do one thing, and we dont have a choice.

Either the supposed god is NOT perfect, or we are slaves to his design.

That is, to all who refuse to repent and trust in Jesus Christ as Lord?

Try this little experiment at home:

Sit in an absolutely quiet room devoid of distractions.
Speak your name out loud. Hear your own voice.
Repeat your name as many different ways are you can.
Call out to yourself as if you were calling a friend from across the street, or in a crowded room.
Whisper your name. Yell your name.
Continue repeating your name over and over again -in as man ways and volumes as you can.

Suddenly you find that you've never called you by your own name. It seems strange, doesn't it? Someone should answer, but who? You?

The feeling you get is personal disassociation. Who is it that's call you? Why aren't they answering?

As this feeling intensifies, you'll feel more and more disconnected and confused.

To end the confusion and the cycle, call out your name one last time, then say, "I'm coming" or "Just a second", or "Be right there!" That will bring you back.

So, my question. Does this same thing work when you say "God"?

We have a 16 year old that has brought home straight A's for the past three years.

Would I put that sticker on my bumper about "My Child..."

How ridiculous!! NOBODY gives a f--k about that my child was student of the month. It means nothing to you. So please Godzilla soccer Mom's, take that crap off the back of your car.

And while we are at it, whats with the freaking GRADUATION parties given to a student for finishing Kindergarden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At that rate, what would you have to pony up for actually finishing college/university. A 747 Jumbo Jet!!
Nothing like gross consumerism to drive our economy.

.. or does it just not care? There seems to be an extreme lack of awareness and an increase of "it doesn't apply to me". Lots of ambivalence, and stupid stupid answers to the questions on this sight. Or am I wrong?

I'm curious as to why the bible has to be interpreted. I would think that God would want the answer to be black and white, not in the shades of gray to confuse some. This is also along the lines of the Tower of Babble, why would God separate all the people so that we couldn't understand anyone. (Don't give an answer stating anything about the tower being built up into the sky, cause that would insinuate that God lived up in the clouds, which is rediculous). Serious Answers only...and please don't tell me to read the new testament-the old testament is just as relevant!

I know this is probably a stupid question and people are gonna say some nasty things, but since humans has evolved and changed so much.... how do we know that God has not changes his ways of how we should live and honor him? It was just a simple question that popped in my head right now and I just had to hear what others have to say bout that.
