What is happening with Linda?
On top of everything else she has not heard from her son, Nathan, since March 17,and she has been told that he has disappeared. This worried mother solicits our prayers. She is also wondering if there are any people of BSDA who are good at finding missing people? Nathan Moore was last at Pass Christian, Mississippi, working for Pink Marine Construction. -------------------- "Any fact that needs to be disclosed should be put out now or as quickly as possible, because otherwise the bleeding will not end." (Attributed to Henry Kissinger) "He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it" (Martin Luther King) "The truth can lose nothing by close investigation".

Thanks for letting us know this Johann. I will be praying for Linda. I know how it feels to worry about a son. I don't know how to find "missing people" but I know God does. Praying for Nathan too.

He is 26 or soon will be.... |

Thanks Eirene for the info. I will be keeping him in my prayers.
Eirene, I am gong to assume you are not a mother, please correct me if I am worng, but if my child was missing for a monthe before going to court, I might be more than a bit distracted, and a lot worried. if someone wanted to keep Linda of"off balance" that would be a good way.

Rosyroi Yes, Linda is pacing the floor and making frantic phone calls. She has been for weeks. Whether a person's child is 6 or 26, they are still a person's child and will be worried about by a parent or any person who cares about and loves that person, or any human soul. Do you, Eirene? Are you concerned about Nathan? The disappearance of a person is nothing to be made light of due to age or anything else. This is a human being created by God. A soul who God loves as much as he loves any other soul on this planet. Whether he is 26 or 55, doing drugs or performing televangelism, he is equally important in God's eyes. If Mark Finley, Danny Shelton, or Doug Bachelor disappeared for a month and no person could account for their whereabouts, would that be reason for anyone to be worried? Even though they are over the age of 26? Of course it would! Is Nathan any less of a child of God than them? This post has been edited by beartrap: May 1 2007, 12:13 AM |

Please do not let evil near him. -------------------- The greatest want of the world is the want of men-- men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. {Ed 57.3}

[quote: fine art] "Instead we seem to be using sensationalism, emotionalism, moving lights and motivational speakers that are prepared to manipulate, by well chosen words, the minds of the listeners. It used to be, messages that were given by our pioneers were wrenched from the depths of the heart by the Holy Spirit. Humor was not added to get that laugh of entertainment. Drama was not introduced behind the sacred desk to glue your attention. Man's Rationale has replaced a cry for God's wisdom."

QUOTE(Fran @ Apr 30 2007, 08:41 PM) [snapback]193657[/snapback] My, My, isn't this strange! right before court with Linda! This looks bad doesn't it? Is there such a thing as coincidence? Nathan was a troubled person, due to addiction to drugs, as I understand it. I have relatives, some close, and others not so close, who have been troubled by their use of alcohol and/or illegal drugs. Their threatment has been mixed. Some have kicked their habbit, and some still struggle with it. Speaking from that personal background, I can say that it would be quite reasonable to treat Nathan's disappearance as coincidence. Frankly, I doubt that there is any evidence to support any other conclusion. People dealing with such problems often simply disappear for a while. Yes, such disapparances cause a lot of pain for those who love them, and worry about them. But, as a relative said to me the other day, in regard to a family member: Greg, I cannot live his life, I have got to let go. I am not responsible for the choices that he makes. Yes, that mother will worry. She does care. So, also, Linda will care, and be concerned. However, there is a factor in this that may be of interest: Let us wait and see how Danny Shelton and those who defend him respond to this. Will they either ignore, or respond with indifference? Or, will they respond in a manner that conveys genuine care for Nathan and concern for him and Linda? They may see Linda and the rest of us an enemy. If so, the Bible says to love those you consider to be an enemy. Who anmong them will come public with a message of concern and caring for Nathan and Linda? -------------------- Gregory Matthews posts here under the name "Observer."
