Why is it that when a person gets saved we are given a time as to how long we will be serving the lord. I heard and read about friends that went through the exact same thing as me. What goes through the minds of people that say this to a person, why not encourage and uplift a person even though they are not ready themselves. I went through that and that was seven years ago as to them me and my husband was only to be three months. God is the answer to all questions and the problem solver for everything you are going through... i believe you need to start at home before you crit someone else. GOD YOU ARE MY PROVIDER!!!
