Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

John 14:1-3
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

Go within yourself and meet the Christ, so that you can know God.
Meet Him in the upper rooms of your being.
John 21:6
"And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find."
Matthew 6:22
"The light of the body is the eye. If therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light."
John 10:30
"I and the Father are one"
Luke 17:21
"The kingdom of heaven is within YOU
There are two fascinating points. Our soul is not ours, it belongs to God. The kingdom of God is within us because God put it there. Jesus said he was sending to us the Holy Spirit, to comfort us because He was leaving to be with the Father. I have been recently trying to focus on the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 6:25
"Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought "
St. Francis of Assisi:
“What you are looking for is where you are looking from”
