Well, I think they both have their advantages and disadvantages. I liked to meet a guy either way. It can go good or bad... But on line, you can back out easier if it goes bad.
I am only forty seven, but when I got dianosed with something called pre kidney cancer around my birthday. I immediately, decided that I was going to just do what was right for me. It is all about me. Not in a bad way, but in a good way. I know God keeps saving me from all the ugly stuff that diabetics get. And I am not going to waste of his time, anymore. So I sort of uprooted myself, and have made plans to start doing more of the stuff I like, writing, looking for a space in the middle of nowhere, "maybe" Mr. Right if he ever shows up. Trying to live as quiet a life as I would like.
I was taught by the pastor of that church that your sins are between you and God. I have been in that church since I was a teenager. So... I do not know what he did to convince anybody that was a goos idea.
I live on the Washington DC Maryland line. I love Country music, I like all music except rap, but I have a decent country music collection. (All men I might add)
I had been sick, for a while, lately feeling better, and plus I moved. With all this going on. I missed a lot of church I only go once a week, but with the nasty drugs and stuff I was taking I was just home.
I get a call from the pastor "Wendy we miss you in the nursery, and If you too weak to drive I can get somebody to pick you up." I say okay
Well the lady that picked me up, is a sweetheart, and she was ranting and raving about the changes that have been made in the church. And I quote.
"Lord Chile the pastor done made some awesome changes, and personally, I think it is good it weeds out the folks you wanna stay away from."
Now, I am concerned. because she never says stuff like that. So I get to church get my hugs from everybody. I enjoy the sermon, it is about loving yourself. Okay well I am kinda looking around the building trying to see if any "physical" changes have been made. It all looked the same. The service seemed to be the same.
Until They asked everybody to raise their hands, and the pastor was crying out to God for people to release their sins. Now here comes the big change...
One lady stands up and says that she has been lusting after the "wife" of a fellow church member.
One couple stood up and said they had been shoplifting as a team for at least a year.
A teenager stood up and said she let herself be passed around at some party the night before.
But the show stopper was when the lady that picked me up, confessed that the spirit moved her to confess that she used profanity when making love to her husband.
Needless to say, I visibly laid over in my section of the pew and laughed. When the Pastor asked if there was anything else. I said what I was thinking, while laughing, by all means save something for next Sunday. Well, I got a stern talking to afterwards, and I still could not believe the new "changes."
I feel that if a person has no inner peace then they can not be calm. I spend a lot of time. Just being still. I love hiking in the woods and I do it often... Alone
