Thanks, OBG, for balancing my word. You are right, some might be called to be here. I've felt that about myself. I think the Lord has wanted me to post. But sometimes I post when he probably doesn't want me to.
One thing I need to make clear, the other board I talked about concerning the musician did have a Christian bent, the musician was Christian, but did not produce Christian music as a rule. So many of his fans were Christian, and many weren't.
Anway, I posted a lot of Christian messages there. One night, I saw that I had received a PM from a young woman in Canada. In the message she said that as she had been reading something I wrote something began to come over her. She said she felt an overwhelming sense that God was speaking to her. She prayed to God and Jesus and became a believer, right there in her home by herself.
Well, I'm not primarily an evangelist, I don't get many saved. But that experience showed me the potential of the gift of writing I've been given, and of the Internet. It made all the frustration of that board worthwhile.
So there is a good side to this. Very much so. Just watch out for the dark side.
