I'm taking the Pennsylvania MSF course in which they require you to bring gloves and over the ankle shoes, which I regard as boots in this case. Before you mention a helmet, the site says that they can provide helmets for students to borrow. I know that riding safely requires much more safety gear. So if after the class I decide I want to pursue riding, I'll purchase the appropriate attire.I can look online all I want for the gloves and boots, but I'd like some actual advice on these items. Oh, and I prefer womens boots, but I wear a size 11, so anything in a mens 9.5 would work as well.Thanks for the help!
I agree. Sometimes a little practical and meaningful advice is more warranted. Who's to say God didn't direct you to the question in order to give her just that (meaning to give her advice rather than just say 'I'll pray')?! Relying on the good old I'll pray for you seems, some of the times, to be just a cover for having no opinion at all. I'm sure God answers your prayers, but he expects ppl to help themselves and others, too.
I am a christian but when my world feels like its falling apart I find that talking to someone about your problems really does help. Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on and Christians should help out there fellow man other than leave it god that's the point of being a christian in the first place. so no it isn't too much to ask for a bit of advice other than a bit of bible bashing.
an isolated system is one in which it can not interact with its surroundings. A calorimeter used as an apparatus to measure the change in heat( sometimes of ice melting in water.) is an isolated system. Another isolated system would be a spaceship moving in the vacuum of space since there is nothing around to interact with it
well sometimes thats what keeps people going. They like to think that it's all part of God's plan, and that someday it will all work out in the end. Some people need their hope and faith (not the TV show, no one needs that) There's a homeless guy uptown where I work. I always give him some money when I see him. One time he told me that he won't be homeless for the rest of his life, that someday God will help him and get things right. I, being agnostic myself, just nodded. It's probably the only thing that keeps him going in life. So I didn't want to mess with that.
It is hard to know how to help. Some say, Let go and let God. I cannot support that statement biblically, because a solution to a problem involves God's wisdom and grace, and most often involves practical steps that He wants us to take. Take hold with God is more accurate a statement. For instance, God expects me to work to eat. If I am between jobs, my full-time job should be finding a job - the Lord expects me to look for and apply for jobs, and He opens/closes the doors to jobs. Here are a few good principles to follow. 1. Ask God for wisdom (James 1:5). 2. Pray like everything depends on God, and work like everything depends on you. 3. Figure out what is God's responsibility. 4. Figure out what is my responsibility. 5. Then get busy doing what you know you should. ..In addition to what has been said, ..give temporary help that you can give, like a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, perhaps a sandwich if the person is hungry. ..Be very cautious is you give away money - most people do not handle it frugally. ..Support the person, but ultimately the person should learn to walk with and depend on God - that is the goal, that one should bear his own load. (see Galations 2:2 6) ..Determine if further help/support is needed (doctor, encouragement calls, food) and if it is, do it.
