Sorry, But I Have To Vent

Pondering this: Why dont people just go and get a job?  Instead of depending on others to house and feed them.  I know there are not many jobs out there, but make an attempt.  Flipping burgers is a job.   Instead they have sex out of marriage and have babies, but don't work.  Some expect others to just support them, others are doing the best they can and ask for nothing, and yet they suffer.  Having sex is for the those who are married. This is God's rule.   Some have sex with someone they just met.  Sex is for love.  How can a person know they love someone when they just met?   Some have sex just so they can be in a rich family.  They make excuses for their partner being a criminal.   Some are just young and in love.  Some are pot heads and drunks and then stop to become pregnant and think they are the best parent and know everything there is about parenting.  How can people survive without money?  How can they have babies with out money.  I know there are times that people need help from others but it should be temparary.  Not for the rest of their lives.  Sometimes a person needs government help.  Fine, but not forever!  I dont understand this partying all the time, sex without love and producing babies...and never working a job, just living off of someone else.  Children are supposed to grow up and go out on their own.  Not still living with their grandparents and parents and be totally dependant on them.  Then they wonder why their parents try to control them.  they are still under their parent's roof!!   I know sometimes this is the best for them.  If they are working then that makes it better.  They are doing the best they can until they can move out.  Praise the Lord for parents who do allow their adult children move in with them while they can get back on their feet.  As long as they are making an effort, all is fine.  But to allow your childs partner to live in the house too, makes no sense to me.  I can understand if the young people were married.   Sometimes it is best to not get married because there is a baby involved.  Having sex with someone you are not in love with is not right and then producing a baby out of this union is no reason to get married unless you love each other.  Kudos though for not aborting.  Abortion is the ultimate child abuse.   If you dont want a baby, then give it to someone who does.  To say you will abort again after having a baby just because you dont want a baby at that time, is insanity.  I fear for the child you have already.  If you would kill children, then whats to stop you from harming the one you have?    Some are so ready to become parents and some are not.  If married, then this shows you are ready for the responsibility of becoming a parent.  Dont have sex until you are married.  Your life will be so much better.  Well yeah..Babies are a joy and the best thing on earth!  It is hard to be a parent, but the love a child has for his parents is unconditional and so the parents need to have this overwhelming love for their child.  I just worry about people who are not ready to have  a baby, those who are druggies, and those who would have sex with anyone who lets them, and those who think everyone is going to house and feed them and they dont have to do a dang thing and be productive citizens.  I think sex before marriage is the root of all evil.  But you can be forgiven.  Jesus is the answer.  But you also have to change your ways and live to glorify and serve Jesus.  Yes Christians are to serve others too, but this is not just giving and giving to someone who is not doing anything for themselves.  Help them help themselves.  Remember the fish story in the Bible.  Teach a man to fish.  Dont fish and give him your fish.  Having him over for a fish meal is serving and loving.  But to just give away your hard earned fish everyday is not love.  Teaching him to fish is love.   I am done.

Psalms 37

I have been reading Psalms 37 over and over.  The message I get is to not fret and just be quiet.  Focus on Jesus.  After I pray over a situation and find peace, I will say more. 

I am thinking of using my blog for reviews too.  Book reviews and movie.  Come back again..

I have not written much lately.  I keep getting messages from things people say and things I have read that I should not lead anyone astray.  I dont want to say something that is wrong and have people follow me because of it.  I want to say truths set by God.  I certainly don't want to send someone down the wrong path..away from God.  But if the truth hurts, so be it.  If you love God you will follow Him and want to please him.  You would want to do what he says to do.  You would not want to do what he says to NOT do!!  So I stopped writing for a while.   But I love writing..so I wont stop. 

IN RESPONSE..

 In Roman16:17-20)

17 Now I urge you, brethren, keep your eye on those who cause dissensions and hindrances contrary to the teaching which you learned, and turn away from them. 18 For such men are slaves, not of our Lord Christ but of their own appetites; and by their smooth and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting. 19 For the report of your obedience has reached to all; therefore I am rejoicing over you, but I want you to be wise in what is good, and innocent in what is evil. 20 And the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.s it says, "

The wolves are creeping in.  In fact now that this Amendment one in North Carolina has passed, the wolves are being wolves!  They are heads of congregations too.  It is so saddening and bringing out anger.  Satan loves anger and rage.  Christians should not fight back.  Those who voted against are very upset and they are being hateful saying that those who voted "for" are for hate and that we are teaching our children hate.  Not true.  Everything we Christians do is based on what God has taught us.  Sin is not OK.  Never!  God has rules and we are to follow them.  If you go against God's rules your life will have turmoil.  Sex is for after marriage.  If everyone did as God said, there would not be all this controversy with unmarried couples and their children born out of wedlock.  They can turn their attitudes around and find this love that they are preaching that everyone is supposed to have.  They can turn their eyes upon Jesus and he will take care of them. 

Yes, God is all about Love.  He sent Jesus to die for us out of love.  But God is also vengful to those who dont accept His Son.  He is also vengful to those who disobey his "rules" 

This amendment has split up families and friends.    They are just blind and dont understand.  We can just pray as Jesus did when he was on the cross.  "Forgive them for they know not what they do." 

So how can we be angry with them?  It is not their fault that they are chasing the wrong thing. 

I just get so upset when they attack those who do understand.  We know the truth.  And if we did vote the wrong way, God can take a bad thing and turn it in to a good thing. 

Manners

What has happened to this thing called Manners or Good ediquette??  When a person gets an invitation, they should RSVP.  Respond Very Promply (I think)    Another thing that is bugging me is why do people think they dont have to do anything and that everyone owes them.  They are very self minded.  They dont show happiness for anyone else but when good things happen to them they expect everyone to just flock and celebrate with them.  They also dont say thank you for gifts they are given. 

Ok! Enough

It is so sad that there is so much conflict.  People disagreeing about almost EVERYTHING!  I am not going to go into the mess that North Carolina is in right now because of the Amendment one situation.  Then there is the Time Magazine with the breast fed child and his mom on the cover.  Oh my goodness, people are in an uproar about that.  Everyone is entitled to their opinion. But dont put others down for what their opinion is.  It is ok for a woman to give her child mommy milk.  There is a limit, though.  I dont think 2 or 3 is to old.  A woman can choose how long she wants to nurse her baby.  Everyone is different.  If you disagree and it has nothing to do with sinful behavior, then just be silent.  You dont have to agree.  God made woman to feed her babies.  The Bible says to be peaceful.  You can point out a sin but do it with love and not anger.  If a the sinful person doesnt listen..so what.  Dont take it personally.   Of course this is an area I need to work on.  I take everything personally and I dont like conflict at all.  It take me a while to get over insults.  This is my weakness.  I cant just shrug off hurtful things that are said to me.  God is working with me on this.  I have come a long way in not lashing out in anger or RAGE!  I now try to walk away. Or I  tell myself that, "They do not know what they do."   I just take it to the Lord and he gives me peace. 

Confused or Paranoid

Maybe I am trying to hard.  Too hard at what??  At being a Christian.  I think I understand it all and that I am doing well, then someone says something and I think the comment was directed at me.   Or is this paranoia?  All I know is that I am tired of feeling self conscious.  Self..maybe that is the word.  I am focusing on myself.   I am trying to not let this court judgement thing overwhelm me.  The court says I have to pay.  The lier won.  It is not fair.  I want to to the right thing in God's eyes.  What do I do?  Lord, What do I do??   I dont have any money.  I owe so much money.  so many doctor bills.  I want to do what is right.  I dont want to be sinful.  The Bible says to "BE STILL AND KNOW I AM GOD!"   So I will do nothing right now and be still and focus on God.,  Pray and Read the Holy Scriptures.
