I'm so glad I have found this forum. I am here to read and learn - some day, when I feel less shy, maybe even post. :)
God bless you all!

Thanks, guys, you are all very kind. :)

It feels good to be here. It's peaceful and you are encouraging. Every day, on Twitter and Facebook, I read and suffer, suffer and read: difficult times. Everywhere, persecutions, injustice and the almost generalised voluntary blindness of those who refuse to see...

We need much prayer for those who do not know the Lord. What a gift it is to have the faith!

A good topic for one of our forums here.

A very grateful THANK YOU, to all. :wave

I sounded a little dramatic, it's true, but sometimes I really have to repeat to myself a dozen times a day the good old & healthy Non praevalabunt! Especially as a good old defensive weapon like the sense of humour is difficult to load because of too much revolt and/or sadness.

Welcome to the board. :wave

I take it from your spelling that you hail from a 'British English-influenced' country.

Thank you. I've been accustomed to the British spelling, yes.

And yes, again, I'm from Romania. (Not sure what "the like" can mean in this context. :wink: )

"The like" in this context means, "something similar". :fyi:

Welcome!

Thanks for the Welcome.

I understand the words very well. The question is what does "the like" (or "something similar" for that matter) mean when talking about a country? What is "the like"/"something similar" to a/my country? Romania or... what? Which category of countries?...

But OK, let's forget about that... :wink:
