To everyone

Thank you for being patient with me and my adolescent brain that is not fully developed yet.

I'm 41 and my brain hasn't fully developed either, so no worries

LOL Xenon.  You're all right!

I guess. I feel really whiny a lot of the time though. I do have a lot of pressure on me that I don't express openly a lot of the time. I dunno.

No worries.  I think it's safe to say that nobody is looking down on you, judging you or anything like that.

Yeah. That hasn't been happening. At least not on the forums or anything.

X-Lion = you are a necessary balance here... your posts are appreciated and respected without any judgment of your age or anything.  You've become very much part of our crazy little family here and we all love ya.

Besides, check the prayer requests... I whine WAY more than you do

XL, you feel free to whine any time you need to.  We've got each other's back here at CHM.  We're family.  Even though we may not post it, we pray for one another when we mention needs.  We enjoy talking to one another here and sometimes on Facebook, too. 

Xenon, you are a valued part of this family despite your age as is Andre (Driven).  You're both young, but you have both shown that you are wise beyond your years.  Each of you has a unique insight that is refreshing because of your youth that too many of us old dudes have lost due to becoming jaded to the world.  You keep coming and sharing that youthful vitality because it helps keep us feeling younger.

Or, if you prefer a much shorter answer:  YOU FREAKIN' ROCK!!!

100% Completey Agree!!!

XL, you are not whiny.  I am whiny ... just ask my whiny wife!

Today our Sunday School class started a new video/discussion series on Spiritual Warfare (David Jeremiah), and during class I found myself thinking of you and some of your posts hear at CHM.  

When we aren't facing struggles, when we aren't feeling tested and on trial, that is when we should be most concerned!  Do you know why the churches that are not teaching the Gospel are doing so well?  Because the enemy is leaving them alone!  They are where he wants them: on the wrong path.  It is only those of us that have aimed our sites on the narrow gate that run into road blocks and IEDs.

So chin up and knees down, young lady!  At times you may feel beaten and battered, but God is with you and He provides the armor we need to protect us.

Thanks guys. I really like that we're like a little family here and that we can be honest with each other.
