I can see why you chose the title, “Winnin...Dineen,<br />I can see why you chose the title, “Winning Him Without Words.” Clearly, your loved one has mastered them! I suspected that was the case. He is a very smart man. After all, he chose you, and you are very wise! I just finished the book, “Blue Like Jazz.” Don Miller, the author, describes Christianity as being like Jazz in that you can’t really put it on paper with any accuracy. Very true. I was a music major and played a little jazz. I tried once. It was impossible to portray the intricate nuances without fudging a bit on timing. Sometimes you just have to hear it and feel to get it. Otherwise, the notations won’t make sense. Faith, in anything, is much like that.<br />As you say: praying and believing!Connie Almonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01128392223880799585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2169363274654847843.post-6392258824595687232012-08-02T03:08:51.632-04:002012-08-02T03:08:51.632-04:00Connie, you make me laugh. LOL!
So, ladies, I had...Connie, you make me laugh. LOL!<br /><br />So, ladies, I had a convo with my hubby tonight about Pascal's wager and he surprised me a little with his answer. He basically said that Christianity believes our salvation is contingent on our acceptance of God's Son Jesus so Pascal's wager still fails because just believing God exists doesn't save you unless you buy into the fallacy that good works save you. <br /><br />I must say I was surprised at his clarity of the differentiation and I could see his point. This guy never stops surprising me.Dineen A.

Still, the Bible tells wives in 1 Peter 3, the best way to reach our husbands is to live Godly lives. Or to win him without words--Now where have I heard that before???Connie Almonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01128392223880799585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2169363274654847843.post-79476327242037216972012-08-01T20:32:33.601-04:002012-08-01T20:32:33.601-04:00Gail, knowing my guy, I'm sure he's famili...Gail, knowing my guy, I'm sure he's familiar with it. He's very scientific and very intelligent. I will ask him though for sure. I'm curious what his thoughts are on that one. Thank you for mentioning it! Blessings!Dineen A.
