Hi friends. Well, today is the day. I have to be at the hospital 12:30PM Eastern time. My surgery is scheduled for 2. I honestly feel so sick right now and my stomach is cramping. I am having a terrible, terrible anxiety attack, and I just want to cry. Positive words will make me feel better ?????

Are you a real preacher?

Are you a real preacher?

Yes, on the 30th of this month I will be 59 years old, I'm an old country boy that was raised by my grandparents who were born again Christians. They taught me to respect others and brought me up in the ways of the Lord.

A little over 22 years ago the Lord graciously and mercifully save me, in other words I became a born-again child of God, filled with His Spirit.

In 1998 the Lord called me into the ministry to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world.

I'm an old time Baptist preacher who still believes the only way to heaven is through and by Jesus Christ the Son of the only true and living God, the God of all heaven and earth, and the creator of the fullness thereof.

If I can be of any help to you or anyone else spiritually, please feel free to email me at brotherron98@gmail.com

Before this gets out of control, I would like to say, I'm sure this site is not intended to be a place to debate things of this nature, that's why I gave my email address, so please, in respect to others on this site let's don't go there.

The only reason I replied was because you asked the question, I replied out of respect to you, whether you believe or not is certainly you're right.

I hope there is no hard feelings between us, the preacher

I believe in a form of Creator but certainly not the Christian god, the Bible or Christianity.

You got this! Just follow instructions and you will be fine. The physicians and nurses know what they are doing. Trust them.

Yay i am so glad everything went well <3

I am very scared of surgery too! But you look like you did very well!

I have VERY similar stats to you! Excited to see how well you do!

Well I am greatful to meet and you @boardlady and @The Preacher, among all the youngins here I am overjoyed for people a little closer to my age. And The Preacher, among my friends I thank Our God there are many Bible-Believing Baptists, the true"salt of of the earth" May I gently tease you a little? Went to a funeral, preacher got up, after a short eulogy,lit into a salvation sermon. I'm there thinking W.O.E( what on earth) I don't believe this! 5 of the,people attending shortly after died, I know 4 found Jesus through that, before their final day. So I think we can't second-guess God, that was the right thing at the right time. Lets agree to keep serving?,in our way- the retirement is out of this world! ?

I'm so glad to see you're doing well, I'm praying for your continued success!

Concerning the preacher at the funeral, examples like that is exactly why it's so crucial for a preacher to listen to the Holy Spirit, he must be willing no matter what the circumstances are, no matter where he is, he must be willing to do what God wants him to do.

We need more spirit filled preaches today, those that are willing to stand and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world, no matter the cost, even if it means our life.

May God richly bless you! The Preacher.

Preacher this is not a website for you to be peddling and advertising your religious beliefs. This is a website for and about weight loss surgery. I personally find your comments offensive as I am a non-believer. I am a former Christian and intend on staying that way. Please keep your views to yourself.

Freedom of speech. You do know you can block a person if you dont like or want to see what they are saying, right?
