Is it possible to change the color of the binding?

This is my first attempt at a build. I like the purfling, but don't like the .3mm black binding I bought from StewMac. Is there a solution to change the color of what's already in place (I'd add elements throughout the guitar as well)? Are my only options to either deal with it or remove all of it? Thanks.

PS - the guitar is very much still in progress.

Five questions from a pastor for only those who speak in tongues.

I'm asking these questions only to Christians who speak in tongues. I am not looking for a theological debate or discussion. Please, if this is not you, let it fly. :)

(I've read through many posts on Christian forums and they always seem to end up reducing to arguments and "proof-texting." Please don't do that on this post).

I'm a pastor seeking to understand the experiences of those who've experienced / believe they've experienced the gift of tongues.

So, if you speak in tongues, would you mind sharing with me five things:

  1. How did you receive the gift?
  2. Did you begin by speaking words/noises/utterances, expecting the Holy Spirit to take over your voice? (Sometimes, people call this "releasing your prayer language," "activating the gift," or using "the language of surrender."
  3. Do you speak outwardly for a congregation / prayer gathering, and if so, have others interpreted for you?
  4. If you pray in tongues, how has that shaped you?
  5. Finally, have you spoken in tongues to someone who doesn't speak your native language and they understood what you were saying? In other words, did they hear you talking in their language but you thought you were speaking in English (or whatever your language is)?

Thank you. I look forward to your responses.

PS, I asked this question on another forum, but am not cross posting between the two.

Hypomania is ruining my life

I’m out of town at the beach for a work trip (but on my own). I cannot focus. I cannot sleep. So hypersexual and it’s all I can think of. I hate this. I have so much I have to do but I’m not. My mind won’t settle!

Maybe not the medically correct term, but I’m cycling up (energy, hyper-sexuality, etc) and down (tired, sad) each day. I’m doing changes to meds. I don’t think it’s just my mood but feels like the tugging of highs and lows.
