and hopefully...I pray for that...a whole lot of peace from our Lord Jesus...
when I read your post, I got reminded of what Alan went through, something super touching...it's some years back, that I read it last:
Thank you for your kind words...I was really " worried", what has become of you, since you were "faithfully" (TF-laden terminology ; ) ) writing here (I would just have to say reporting & the
blunder would be "perfect" LOL)...sometimes I felt a bit "lonely" here on the boards...I thought, I am the only maniac to write here still...not that I'd really feel like having a mission, but I think it's important to show the others...whoever they might be...that there is another better life after TF...even if the body does get harmed like in your case...Jesus didn't think too much of saving the body ad infinitum (maximum, whenever needed & mixed with faith in HIM, healing for time being), rather the spirit is saved per se...I wish you really all the help & support you need & can get...
Some ailments kept me also sometimes low in mood etc...was plagued by a fungus for literally decades, but didn't seek early enough treatment...sucked my immune-system I bet...especially I realise that looking back...in winter.
Backache-problems have disappeared, which were for very long...I think there is a link to trouble & stress...now my tinnitus-problem remains, but so far I can cope with it.
I guess you would trade your problems with mine??!!
I think, I should reflect, write a bit some day about, woman...seduction included .
Spiritually the west should be in many things pretty mature, but sad to say, we all seem to lack in biblical earnestness, stemming from the convictions...coming from the Word.To whom much is forgiven, the same loveth much...that always impressed me...the testimonies & the thankfulness of big sinners were always much more impressive, than mine...although I spiritually etc. didn't sin less (If the law is broken by anything, it's just broken), I guess...but sometimes we have to hit of the bottom more...to not get lifted up...and looking for the real answers.
I always thought, that real humility precedes better/real spirituality...TF thinks similar....only not realising, that all their supposed revelations & "advanced knowledge"...(that's why I think they are Gnostics...for mystics they "fellowship too much") made them proud & prone to falling.
Anyway, dear OT2, if you permit me to say, I think it was a "treatment" of God, that your second mate left you, if it would have been the real thing, it would have lasted & as I have posted that link to the PDF-file you read, I don't believe in "second chances" in marriage anymore...as long as the first one is still alive.Old Indians (many more young ones seem to think in the cities different nowadays...it seems) understand that immediately.I watched a movie yesterday which conveyed that message & there are countless Indian movies with that theme...strange, that we Christians have a warped view about that.
I include a link to a movie, which perfectly describes in a little clip/part, what/how seduction is,...it's a nice little metapher, like the bubbles in the beginning...or dreams to wake up from...the movie seems to end "badly"...haven't watched it yet fully

Jism - Chalo Tumko Lekar Chale
Hindi Lyrics Translation
Chalo Tumko Lekar Chale
Here is the song 'Chalo Tumko Lekar Chale' from movie 'Jism'.
chalo tumko lekar chalen ham un fizaaon mein
come, I'll take you away into those climes
jahaan mitha nasha hai taaron ke chaanvon mein
where there's a sweet intoxication in the shadows of the stars
chalo tumko lekar chalen ham un fizaaon mein
come, I'll take you away into those climes
jahaan mitha nasha hai taaron ke chaanvon mein
where there's a sweet intoxication in the shadows of the stars
chalo tumko lekar chalen ham un fizaaon mein
come, I'll take you away into those climes
deti sarsarati in hawaaon ke sang aao paas mere aana
where you'll glide on the melodies of the breeze; come to me!
sapnon ka safar hai mere dil ka yeh bhanvar hai
it's a journey of dreams, it's the whirlpool of my heart;
is mein duub jaana
drown in it!
zara sa tanhaa chupaata ab mil gaya
I've found your hidden loneliness
jahaan mitha nasha hai taaron ke chaanvon mein
where there's a sweet intoxication in the shadows of the stars,
chalo tumko lekar chalen ham un fizaaon mein
come, I'll take you away into those climes
madhyam roshni hai aur chanchal chaandani hai chalen aao na
the light is mellow, the moonlight playful; come, let's go
shabnam bhi chubhan hai aur mahaka sa milan hai duur jaao na
even the dew stabs us; our meeting is fragrant; don't go far
suhaana suhana sapna sach ho gaya
a beautiful dream came true
jahaan mitha nasha hai taaron ke chaanvon mein
where there's a sweet intoxication in the shadows of the stars
chalo tumko lekar chalen ham un fizaaon mein
come, I'll take you away into those climes
jahaan mitha nasha hai taaron ke chaanvon mein
where there's a sweet intoxication in the shadows of the stars
