Hello

I removed my statement GOD BLESS!

Of course not. Christians care what the Lord thinks.... and is no respector of persons...right?

Be true to the Lord and yourself, all will be fine.

Amen Grace!! I couldn't say that any better :thumbup:

Not that this really bothers me or made me upset in the least....but just a cute story.

I was at my mom's church (one I grew up in) for my sister's college graduation supper/party.

My DH came up to me and said..."your mom's ratting you out." I look over to where she is, with 3 of my old friend's, 2 of which are heavy-set, and she has her mouth covered. My DH tells me she's telling them about my banding. I snicker it off. Then before I leave, the pastro's wife comes up to me and whispers..."I heard you had THE surgery?" ok mom.....but I'm still not mad. When I called her on it, she just gave me a big hug and told me she's only so proud of me for being willing to take this step. Made me want to cry. I love her so much and she won't be around forever!! And after finding 1 Corinthians 10:13, nothing anybody has to say about the band will effect me. PTL!!!

Oh, and to top the story off, my DH brings it up again as I'm dozing off to sleep. He states to me, "well, you're the one who has to put up with all this hard work ahead of you..."Not knowing if I'm too tired to say something abck or trying to figure out what he meant about that...it gave him time to restate it.."well, not you yourself, but all of us with you, hon." now then I was able to fall off into a sweet sleep! "Thank you Lord, for my dear hubby!!"
