we all have a story to tell  something that happened that is so much a part of you, you'll just never forget it  sometimes, something happens that "triggers" that whole memory - so, what's YOUR story? Tell it in 2 stages ok I'm first, this really happened - it may sound like a joke STAGE 1 I couldn't believe my luck, we could talk, we could be friends, at last this was happening, it wasn't a dream well we had only been there 10 minutes when she said "oh no!" yikes what happened next was bad news what's your story? ------------------ |

Let me guess, she was like "Sorry, I would love to stay and chat but I have to go. I forgot my family and I are moving to Oregon today and I have to be home right now." Then she moves to Oregon and becomes My stage one. That is until she says: "Oh, No!" And yah that was the end of stage 2 for you and the beg. of stage 1 for me [This message has been edited by Wacko4X (edited June 09, 2003).] [This message has been edited by Wacko4X (edited June 09, 2003).] |

yeah, then she moves to CA and become stage 1 for me. no, wait. She's way too old for me! She has to be, like, I don't know, Chiefy's age. Waiting to see what is, Chiefy! I hope it's not depressing... cuz depressing stories, are well, to be redundant, depressing. ------------------ [This message has been edited by ArchAngel (edited June 09, 2003).] |

hey wacko  ARCH thanks for joining in guys... but don't YOU have a story too?ok well think about it, because I don't want to be the only one with a sad story here.... please!  STAGE 2 I cannot hope to convince anybody I guess, that I certainly had no such intention (at age 14 all I could think of was a kiss!) what a nightmare well I'm all grown up now, many years have passed and the girl married somebody else ... and so did I. so why this incident troubles me now, I have no idea c'mon - anybody else have some story, from when they were young that causes "frustration" ? ------------------ |

stories like that.. I have sadly too many .. some about the wrong stuff, but also some good - like i have had many christian female friends (and a few girlfriends), some whom i was very close , some i could have married. But now i have my lovely wife and she is all i want, and its not appopriate to have a deep emotional relationship with other women, ex-girlfriends or just close friends.. still friends of course, still fellow workers in Christ.. But we are couple friends.. But i know that when i get to heaven i will have complete holy intamacy with all my friends of past and present.. I am blessed with the wife i have, the greatest wife i could ever have. I terminate any of the what if threads that might try to enter into my head, and meditate the covenant i made with my wife and God, to be faithful to her and her alone, not just sexually but emotionally..
Stage 1: i was about 16 or 17 So that day came, and i departed around that time to the said street corner... Stage 2 yet to come, after the commercial break. ------------------ |

Good to see the fruit of paitence being exercised by some 
So in full "spiritual ferver (sic)" i went over and pummled the guy off my bike..and got it back, momentarily feeling vindicated.. Then i looked into his eyes, and somehow i could see into his soul, see the Rejection and Pain. Regretably my self occupation with my own feelings of shame had me walk away that day without saying anything more. The "miracle" that God pulled off, was not soley for my material benefit of getting my bike back.. Nor was it limited to my own personal spiritual benefit, of growing in faith regarding hearing his voice.. It was meant for the benefit of this other person - a sinner indeed - yet one that God loved with a passion, as much as He loved me.. a person Jesus died for. I could have walked in the role of ambassador of Christ, living his Love, showing His Mercy, Pointing towards Him.. But i didn't and God's grace is sufficent enough to forgive me - and at least i have learnt from it.. anyway Baby is crying so Adious ------------------ |

I have an interesting 2 stage story. About 4 years ago a friend of mine was recording his first CD. I thought it would really be neat to actually write a song for his CD and present it to him as a gift. Well I prayed about it and over the next week I wrote my first song! I have no musical training or ability at all. I can't read music and I can barely sing. Well he came over to my house and I sang the song to him. He really liked it a lot and we were both excited that he was going to record it and put it onto his CD. Alas, the song never got recorded, but something far greater soon happened that completely surprised me and totally changed my life. A few of you out there (who know me) might know what happened, so don't ruin it for the rest! |

uh, let me guess... your friend brought his sister, and she heard the song, and you guys fell in love and got married? haha, okay, just kidding... What? I'm curious. ------------------ |

So a few weeks later, I was doing the dishes. By the way, I have been married for nearly 17 years and have two kids. While I was doing the dishes, I noticed that I was singing some song that I had never heard before. It totally surprised me since this had never happened to me before. I had the melody and some of the words. So I sang what I had onto a cassette tape and forgot about it. The next morning I remembered and I listened to the cassette tape. I thought to myself that the song needed a chorus, and suddently the words of the chorus and the melody were right in my head! I was totally surprised again! I sang the partial song onto a cassette tape and sent it to my friend, and that is the song that he recorded. Since then, I have written over 50 songs that praise God including two musicals. You can hear the song my friend recorded, which is called "From The Highest Mountains" along with 3 other songs that I wrote at: http://www.oursalvation.com/musicals.htm Probably the best song on the web page is "In My Dreams", but I have many other songs in different styles (including rock) that have yet to be recorded. |

the lead up, then when somebody expresses an interest, the conclusion 
it's not
