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.

Pray for guidance from God 🙏
He's busy saving the world with Trump. I don't want to take up his time. I'll still pray for a little comfort in this trying time. I just pray that this will be over soon.
You are not taking up his time. Your request will be delegated to your guardian angel whose job it is to look after you. We all have one. Just ask and believe.

Not for everybody, not for all things, not at all times. Everything is contingent upon being in accordance with God’s will, and often there are greater purposes afoot. Yet there are times where salvation is absolutely out of reach of our own hands, where God can provide it, as is His Name.
Psalm 18:6 - In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears.
Psalm 34:17 - When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.
In all earnestness, your username can’t be a good thing to regularly reinforce on your mindset. I wouldn’t delete the account, as there may be things of value to yourself and others, but it might be good to create a new one and link from that account to it, as marking the beginning of a transition to a new mindset. When a butterfly sheds the caterpillar husk, the old skin remains…. Then also cease to invoke that old mindset upon yourself. What righteousness oriented mindset could replace it?
There always has to be a substitution…. a goat… the cross… ourselves for others… nature abhors a vacuum.
Time is an illusion. Especially at God's level. It's no concern. Pray.
I will. Thank you.
Aww fren, God loves you so much, more than we can comprehend. I’m telling you, He wants you to cry out to Him no matter how big or small. He transcends time and space. I know it’s hard to comprehend, but He is with you at a close, intimate level, while at the same time fighting the big battles for us too. I’m praying for you fren. God bless, and please talk with Him. Give it all to Him, he can take it. :)
You are His number one priority!!
God is so great that He has the time to hear all of us. He wants us to count on him. He wants us to prove him. Try Him, Taste Him, Test Him. Have you accepted Christ as you personal Lord and Savior yet?
