Coincidence or Miracle?

Have you ever experienced something that felt like so much more then just coincidence, that it felt as if it was a miracle from the Divine? What is a Miracle? Is there such thing? Do Pagans Believe in Miracles?

How is it that we stray so much during the day. Our mind is like a sheep wandering here and there.. Touching the flesh.. touching the world.. just wandering all over. I was really appreciating that there is a shepherding One in our spirits. Our Lord Jesus. His sheep hear and know His voice. He bids us to come back to the green pasture and still waters of our spirit where He is.
2 Tim 4:22 says
" The Lord be with your spirit; Grace be with you"
I just love this verse.
He is near and dear to us.. but not always do we stay with Him.
Stay with Him when we are about to loose our temper.Or fall once again to our besetting sin. When we find ourselves being fashioned according to this age. So many things pulling and drawing us away from this Lord.
Please share of your day to day experiences of learning to " stay with the Lord' through all your day's ups and downs.
Romans 8:6
For the mind set on the flesh is death. But the mind set on the spirit is life and peace"

i'm white and my boyfriends black. if we were to have children, would they be treated any differently? often times i hear people say "you're making a mistake if you have children". childrens not really in the question now cause we are young. but i just wonder? i went to school with many white people, black people, and mixed people and i never really saw a difference made any where? maybe its just the older generation that fill this way.

I have a very small bottle that is about 2 inches or less in length. It is somewhat round at the bottom and about 1 inch or so wide. The name "Baby Tears" is embossed right into the bottle. I have had it for a long time. Just looking for a general time period, or if there is someone out there who might know anything about the Baby Tears name on the bottle and what it was. Thanks...

I prefer Crowley's definition myself: The Art and Science of causing change to occur in conformity with Will.

Interested in hearing what you have to say.

There's more of us then you think...Who are the Pagans?
I thought this would be a cute idea to share what we do with everyone, basically many people don't realize that witches, pagans, and wiccans, live amongs them, they are the same as everyone else. What jobs do you do? What is your profession? Are there others working along side you?
Is it easy to pick pagans out amongs the crowds of people we see everyday? Share a little about yourself, your careers, your homes, your life! Who are the Pagans?

He is the altogether lovely One.. Our dear Lord Jesus!
Each day may He rise as a new dawn in our hearts.. shining in all His splendor over the landscape of our innermost being.
Bidding us to come to Him.. eat of Him as the Fresh manna today.. Drink of Him as the Dew of grace. His sweet voice..His steadfast love thats new every morning.
How does your heart respond to such a lovely One? How do you come to Him each day to open your heart to love Him with Your first and best love.
Before the World encroaches upon you...before the flesh rises up and the environment comes in to wage their war... Is there is need in your heart to come afresh to the Lord?
Share of this heart of yours... this place that is made to truly love the Lord and be His home to settle down in. What goes on in your being, your struggles and your victories. Share with us.Be open and honest about this crucial matter in your christian life.
Your sister

I watched a CNN special and these women from the Middle east were burning themselves to protest their hopelessness with their abusive husbands. What the H__ is that all about ? How is that changing things for you to burn yourself ? I would rather think that making him one of the girls ( if you know what I mean ) would alter his thinking a bit. Im sure he would treat me better and just think of the new job opps for him singing soprano in the local opera house.

As party politics seems so close to 50/50, I can only think both Dems and RePubs are on the wide path

Should we look one more time at how wide is that wide path and how narrow is that narrow gate

Here's the scene: we're driving, and he notices my Esso Speedpass, which is a little device containing an RFID chip which you wave in front of a panel on the gas pump, you pump your gas and away you go...your credit card is automatically charged. He said, without cracking a smile, that the device is the mark of the beast, something about the end times and advanced technology. I waited for the punchline but he was quite serious, and he learned about it in church apparently.

and if jesus was killed for claiming to be king of the jews, then wouldn't it make sense that his followers would try to hide his heirs?

Its already pretty obvious that this same thing has already happened to many gods in much older religions. why do you still claim Jesus is the only one even after knowing of Horus ect.?

Just wondering?
The BIble was always attacked as talking about the end times and non-believers have always mocked it as being superstitious- now they see the environmental changes as prophesied why do they still think all that's happening is not from the God of the Bible?

It is written in Luke 21, “There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and
perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea."
Reports from UN and EU environmental experts have all agreed that the seas are getting rougher and more dangerous.
When they see these further signs in the sun and moon, will they then repent?
The argument used to be the Jews had not returned to the land, but now that prophesy has been fulfilled for over 50 years, what more proof do these people need before they too repent?

that you cant do without it?

Dont say "eternal salvation" unless you can support your claims with facts

Example

FACT- The ocean is composed of water

ASSUMPTION- Jesus is the son of god.

Facts always retain more value than assumptions because they are verifiable. There is no free pass for christians and muslims from that

There are several questioners asking if religious belief is common since. As we see similur behahior among other species, as cats and other animals are partial to color material, elephaants bury their dead; and yhou, if they think you are dead, and that beliefs are more universsal than none-beliefs, would this weigh religion as natural, more than nurtured?
Also, I have read almost the same ideas in far separated cultures, as the story of the fox/tiger and the poisonious crearture-one Jewish in Europe, and the other Taoest, in China. Also, language is very similur across many cultures, as ryah-see in hebrew and reia, in spanish. There is something working to bring the human race together, and the evedence is that each one of us possesses a part of the solution. One name for this solution is salvation, as again, evedenced in many cultures.
Main thing to remember is to do the best "I" cn, to do Will, not to try and take His place. Live your the best by His way you can.

I'm really lonely a lot and it's been a while for me since i've had a date, it's been pretty much never that i've had a serious girlfriend and it's been a long time since i've had a casual girlfriend. I also don't always have people to hang out with all the time. I feel lonely sometimes because I'm really a great and interesting guy but so many people are missing out on me, and I'm going to waste. I often want to confide into people that i'm just lonely, that i need a friend, or maybe that i'm desperate, but desperation turns people off. Too often i feel like i can't say what i want to say, and it frustrates me to not be able to communicate. When I have one of those "moments" with a girl, that makes me thrilled beyond belief because i rarely have those, but to the girl, who is possibly prettier than I am, it's no big deal so i have to act like it's no big deal to me, because coming on too strong, is like the biggest sin. Or is depseration the least desirable thing in dating/social?
