rainingdove72 The bible says ask and ye shall recieve. Ye recieve not because ye ask amiss. We should always ask God to guide us in all things. He said he would even give you the desires of your heart. You need to find out if the desires you want are "amiss"... God is...

rainingdove72 hello, Oh yeah, I have forgotten to eat before. When I get into studying, I just get wrapped up and then one of the kids will ask for something to eat and the first thing I do is look at the clock:) That's really the only time I forget. Now that the children...

My toddler asked "Why can't we hear God's voice anymore?"

ludasca @ludasca (7) • Philippines 9 Jan 10

I read a Children's Bible to my son since he was 2 years old and it would be filled with interesting questions. The toughest one he has asked me is the one above. How would you answer it in a way that a toddler would understand?

rainingdove72 Ludasca, I think I would tell him: God does still talk with people. He said I am the same yesterday, today and forever. I have heard many people say God spoke to them. That is also how our preacher gets his messages for Sunday. Our children sometimes...

Do you eat breakfast?

taraelocin @taraelocin (1138) 2 Jan 10

'Breakfast like a king, have dinner like a pauper!' - that's what my grandmother used to say. And she is right, you know? Breakfast is the most important meal to set you up for the day. But that doesn't change that I just can't...

rainingdove72 Hello! My idea of breakfast is grabbing a cup of coffee. That lasts me until about lunch time. There are some days I might eat a bowl of cereal - probably brunch time. When my husband and I first got together, he had to have a BIG breakfast = I mean bacon,...

What pet peeve do you have? Or do you have any pet peeve?

williamjisir @williamjisir (22819) • China 1 Jan 10

Everyone has his own pet peeve. I am not an exception, either. One of mine is that I don't like my laptop to be used by others except my wife and son because I consider my laptop as something very private. It is just like...

rainingdove72 I could write chapters like mzz663, but I will try to limit it a few. I also hate it when people don't close thier mouths or make sounds while eating. I have taught my kids not to do this, but I do have to say - I do catch them once in a while. My biggest pet...

Words For 2010!

Deborah L. Alten @gtargirl (5376) • United States 1 Jan 10

My wish for 2010 is to send a verse a day to my two kids. The internet gives me no excuse to not follow through with this. We are all on Facebook, MySpace and we have emails, of course. Scripture from God's Word (the Living Bible)...

rainingdove72 What a good idea. I would assume that giving the watch would be a reminder that the "time is near" or "you never know when your time comes". I wonder how the kids reacted. I would think it would help put things into perspective: looking at the watch daily...

On Face Book I have had some friend requests from people I haven't ever heard of. I looked at one of the profiles and saw that she is Face Book friends with two of my friends. So I asked each of my friends who she is. Neither of...

rainingdove72 I noticed that the other day - that everything is shown. I was under the impression that when you are in a different area, it would stay in that area. I was very surprised when I went back to the main section and there was my response to something else. I...

rainingdove72 I know this to be true. A friend had given me an invite or something to some game they were playing, and next thing I know I'm getting requests from people I don't know. I look to see who we have in common as friends, when I see that it is just the people who...

How Old Were Your Kids Before You Let Them Stay Up To Ring In The New Year?

danishcanadian @danishcanadian (28955) • Canada 31 Dec 09

I think I was around 9 years old, the first time I stayed up to ring in the new year. It was a great New Year's Eve. Sadly my parents had just separated four days before on the 26th of December, but my Dad made it a perfect New...

rainingdove72 Last year was the first time we attempted to keep the children up for the new year. They were all excited when Grandma said they should be old enough. Well, they didn't last. It seems like any other time they would've been wide awake. So, maybe this year for...

rainingdove72 I would agree that the Superbowl is really big where I live, also. We have two other sports that are pretty big - riding snowmobiles and ice fishing. I perfer the snowmobiling over the others, not that I've done it alot. I just liked it better.

danishcanadian @danishcanadian (28955) • Canada 31 Dec 09

Hubby and I don't like throwing our our read magazines, so we put them in a bag on the front door, and when the bag is full, I take them to the local cafe, and leave them in the magazine racks. We have subscriptions to a lot of...

rainingdove72 You could take them to your local library. In one of the places I lived they had a "free box" that they put them in. They didn't have any magazines that I liked, but I thought it was an excellent idea.

Opportunity Knocks! ... Welcome, Alice!

Just an Ordinary Owl? @owlwings (43910) • Cambridge, England 24 Dec 09

If you haven't read the latest alert, we have a new 'user' in our midst. She is called Alice and her username is GoAskAlice. She is (at last) an intermediary between the users and 'MyLot Staff' ... what we like to call 'Admin' but...

rainingdove72 Well, since she is new as admin. that would mean a new pair of eyes and ears to see and hear with. Not that the last admin. was bad. Just a new pair is usually a good thing because that means that things are "moving up". Alice - just remember what it was...
