Off-Topic / How Do You Fill the Need-to-Be-Needed?

« on: December 08, 2013, 02:14:50 pm »Message ID: 826930

I think of church---oh, I offer all kinds of 'encouragement' & 'humor' etc.; but if I don't show up, church goes on anyway (oh, not as cheerful or -empowered or -something; but just as "good" ... i.e. I don't think anyone's stopping just because 'I miss service too often'!)

That's what I want sometimes: not 'for anyone to be absent from church-service,' but rather 'something that people hopes will happen, which WON'T happen unless I'm there to let it!'

What should I do?

He approved of marriage, but He didn't have His own in life? What does that mean to us?

Offers / Let Me Get This Straight: I Need to Go to the Forum Bonus RF EVERY MONTH?

« on: December 06, 2013, 09:59:23 am »Message ID: 826215

I've got the (locked) topic that mentions it bookmarked, but ... I guess I don't understand ... something about 'how the money works' (I guess I imagine it as 'the webmaster gets a HUGE deposit, which he then doles out to us members as our submissions for that month show us to be worthy  ')

I dunno. Do these discussions NOT display the dates they're posted? Is there not a PROGRAM that can survey the last month's submissions & deliver all the names therein? I'm not DEMANDING that there be one, but it just seems more-convenient (to all the members' seems more an inconvenience to the webmaster, like 'extra customer-service  ').

But I hope--not that the webmaster bestows their great grace  in making such a program (though it'd be much-appreciated if they did)--that my fellow forum members can remember to submit their bonus-requests for the $3 each month (or as often as FC advises)!

Off-Topic / RIP Nelson Mandela, His Excellency

I don't know much about the guy, except that he led African-Africans against apartheid in South Africa.

What do you like best about the man?
