Thanks Kerry for acknowledging     

Quote from: Dave on 11 Mar, 2026 16:10It seems in this life that it consists very much with the question "WHY".Why did the the Lord have a two trees and a serpent in the garden, would 'man' have made better choices with no serpent and no trees?.Because there is a lot of 'WHY" it very often develops into WHY me.Unfortunately in most cases 'why me' is a question with no answer.I write to a lady who's 'why me's' totally ruin her life, she's stuck with questions and seemingly no answers, a victim mentality rules her. The only way out of 'why me' is 'what now.'You don't heal by replaying what hurt you, you can decide to stop carrying it, what happened probably can not be undone and certainly not by continually revisiting in your mind.Is there a path forward, we accept some things , maybe a lot of things seem to have no reason.Is it possible to accept the hurt and move forward to heal??I'm sure as you read this as a christian you can fill in with scripture stuff I could have written the chapter and verse.Until she can release those hurts, there is no peace.She is also Autistic which compounds her problem. I would value any wisdom and if the Lord lays her on your heart for prayer.I can't think of much that might help you; but I know that many people with a victim mentality get attention that way and don't seem interested in doing much  to solve their problems.

Went to some worship meetings with the guy who wrote this song, a bit of a blast from the past, as it were.As an old mate was oft to quote, "When it's all said and done, there always seems more said than done" Oh Whoops a bit of a malfunction at the junction on posting the song, but like old King Brucey I'll try,try again.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTczl3N_cUU&list=RDoNg47Wiq9ME&index=4

His name is Tim Menzies.  He has lots of videos at Youtube too.  Here he is with another  song, "I Surrender All."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PloEcutc5hsAnd here's a playlist of ten videos for anyone who might want to sit back and listen to more music without typing on a keyboard.  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-2bfa2mRIuKdF9JHVljqlo4e0IY-sYbF

Kerry any idea on who the singer was on that song, when we were having house meetings in Legal,Alberta ,one of the Bro's sons who was about 3 and a half sang that song as his dad picked out the tune on his guitar. So it has great sentimental memories, sadly his son went on to become a Texas lawyer and choose an alternate life style to boot but sometimes a seed needs a great deal of time.As to "Eden" second time around, a long pause for thought!!! will we need it??, in a " New heaven and a New earth scenario" ?
