Hi, I'm Ruth. I'm 48 and have been following Jesus for 10 years. As I came to the Lord late, I have lived quite a saga, including having 5 children (nearly all grown up)and 2 divorces. I'm happily married now and we live in the northern isles of Scotland. Like many people, I'm just not the same person as I was before I got saved and I'm ever so thankful for that!

Welcome, Ruth! I had a dear friend from Scotland who is now with the Lord; I'm looking forward to meeting him in person soon. I hear it's a lovely country...with wonderful golf courses.
Jump in with both feet and start posting! A lot of people are registering, but are shy about making themselves heard.

Welcome Ruth. I hope you find it comfortable here.
I also hope more people start posting. We can't be afraid of what others will think of us or our viewpoints to the point that it keeps us from being heard.

Hi Ruth! It is nice meeting you and welcome aboard! My mother's side of the family is from Scotland... Never been there but heard it is beautiful!
