Club Adventist
Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

I too, would testify of that.

Am sorry I could not make it to the funeral service, I am thankful that my wife and daughter were able to.

Cubensis, I lost my father at about your age -- in the prime of my life, when I still needed him for advice occasionally. I missed him so much. But eventually the pain lessens.

And we know we'll be able to see our fathers again when Jesus comes.

God bless you.

Thank you for sharing your father's eulogy with us. And I agree with you Jeannieb43 on getting to see our fathers again when Jesus returns! Amen!

God bless you Cubensis!

Thank you all for your prayers and support. I am slowly getting my life back together, I still have a ton of things to do.

It looks like my employer is going to give me friday night Sabbaths off. It isn't official yet, but it looks like I can either work on Sunday, or perhaps Friday morning. I need to make sure that they put Sabbath keeping in my permanent record so that if I decide to change positions, that this is a condition for me to accept the position.

On the school note I still am in limbo. I am looking at the nursing field, but it is discoruaging when I think of all the classes I need to take. I want to get my BSN. I still am looking at the IT field, and also the motion graphics field.

As of today I will have Sabbaths (friday nights) off. I will work thursday, then stay and work on the swing shift till about 5am. So I will have the rest of Friday, plus Saturday and Sunday off. Initally I will be making less hours, but I might be able to come and work one Sunday a month to make up for what I am losing.

The hard part now is explaining to bepole who ask why I am not working Friday nights. I ampraying for God to put the right words in my mouth. I am not embarassed for being an SDA but I don't like explaining it either, I am no preacher and I doubt I could ever convert somebody to Christ.

Actually Cubensis I am sure God can use you no matter where you are. You will love having Friday and Saturday and most Sunday's off. I think it will help you not only feel spiritually rested but physically.
