It is all about JESUS

This is a good short film (33 minutes)  about Christianity.  The importance of Jesus our saviour.

The bible tells us not to judge others or we will be judged.  God is the judge of all, so it is not up to us to do so.  I am bothered by the different religions judging each other and thinking they are the right religion.  All that matters is if you believe that Jesus , born of a virgin,  was God's son sent to earth to die on the cross for our sins and he rose again.  If your worship is praising and focusing on Jesus and the Holy Bible, it doesnt matter how you worship.  We as Christians are to live a simple life, serve others, and share Jesus with others.  Keeping Him as our focus for life and looking to Him in all situations.   The church is the Bride of Christ and Jesus is the groom.  Think about this.  I will share more on this topic later.    Christians dont have the right to just do as they please and commit sins and think, "oh, I am forgiven"  If you love God then you should want to glorify him with your life.  You should want to live for Him.  But, we are human and we do sin.  Acknowledge your sins, appologize, repent (turn away) from the sin.  This is hard and if we ask for God's help, he will help us to get over a sin.  He will help us stop the sin.  Satan knows our weaknesses, but if we just ask for God's help, He will defeat Satan.  Sometimes you just have to say out loud "Flee Satan!"  " I love Jesus!  He is my savior and I follow him!"    Being a Christian does not mean your life will be easy, but with God's help you can have peace while going through hard times.    There is so much to say but I have to just write a little at a time.  I will write more later and I am going to write on the topics of friendship, marriage, and the Christian life as time goes on.   The Bible says to think on good things, holy things, positive things, loving things, kind things.  Love...Jesus is Love...Peace...Jesus gives us Peace...Obey...read the Bible and do what it says...Trust that God is in control no matter what!.....Pray...talk to God all day.  Pray without ceasing.   Dont tolorate sin...confront it!  If you accept sin because you dont want to offend someone..that is not Love.  Set Godly boundries.  If someone hurts you, or offends you..pray for them, give them a blessing.  This is what the Bible says to do.   Until Later...God Bless you

The Start of Something New!

I am going to write a story and my thoughts.  I am not sure if I should write the whole story or write parts and have thought blogs inbetween.  At this point in time, I want to write about friendship.  I will later write about marriage, children, abortion, more on marriage and marriage again.  But for now, I will start with Friendship.   Well, hold the boat...A little about myself...or not.   To be continued........

What the World Needs Now is Love and Peace

I am so saddened by all the hurt going on in my  state of North Carolina.  A woman gets her 13 year old son to kill her husband because he threatened to kill the 15 year old daughter because she is pregnant.  Such a mixed up sad family.  Totally depressing.

 People killing their loved ones because the loved one left or broke up with them.  So many shootings over heartbreaks. 

A man kills 8 people and injuring others because his wife left him. 

A man kills his 10 month old step daughter and blames it on Post Tramatic Stress Syndrome. 

People on drugs trying to dull the pain they are in.

Lately I have just cried over the hurting people, the angry people, depressed, and sick.  I am heartbroken over the abuse of children, elderly and animals.  Why are people so hateful.  Why are they hurting so bad? Where is the love?  Why dont they have peace?   They need Jesus.  Satan has control of them.  Flee satan! 
I pray for those being abused and those who are the abusers.  The abusers need love and help! 

There is a family in my neighborhood who has a big dog on a short chain in their back yard.  They also have at least 5 dogs in a small pen and at least one more in another pen.  Is this legal?  Is it legal outside of city limits?  Sad.  

I have to confess that I need do more for the glory of God.  I need God to use me more.  Or am I doing enough just taking care of my family and my home.  I could do more for my home.  I want a home that my family feels welcome to come to and they feel safe and can relax and feel loved.  I want to feel that people can come to my house and I wont feel they are judging me because my house if falling apart.  Repairs cost lots of money and we are not able finacially to do repairs.  I am sorry if my house does not look beautiful like most peoples homes.  I want my house to be a home.  A Christian home.  This is Jesus' home too.  I do the best I can, but could tidy up more everyday. 

I have been given the gift of being able to stay home and be a "homemaker"  This was my life dream and my 2nd husband gave me this life.  He works hard and I want to be a helper so that he can work and support his family.  This is what the Bible says to do.  I had to work for many years and now I am able to stay home and do what I had wanted to do ever since I was a child.  I just wanted to be a stay home mommy.  God  and my late (this means he has passed away) husband gave me three wonderful children. 

My husband and I agreed that this is how we want our marriage to be.  When he didnt have a job and we were desparate, we depended on God.  Jehovah Jirah!   

I seem to have gone off on a tangent, but it is very depressing all the hurt and anger going on in the world.  Jesus can take your pain away.  Trust Him, Obey Him and Seek Him.
