He's always staring at me. It is annoying. When I say something, he says he is staring somewhere else...out the window at a bird. He is always doing that annoying whistle that construction workers do at passing pretty women. I hate it. I am not pretty. He is always saying "Hi Beautiful" to me in public. I don't like it and he wont stop.
I am going to write about lots of things. My thoughts. I know most Bloggers have a theme. I don't . A lot of my main focus will be on Jesus and how my life and thoughts reflect my life as a Christian.

Truth
Its not up to us to judge. We should speak the truth and if people don't listen, walk away. God will judge them for not following HIS rules. There are so many sins in this world that God lists in the Bible. A lot of them are worldly and wont get you into Heaven. Heaven is where Jesus is. Heaven is eternal. Not everyone will get to go to Heaven. Some will go to the fire for eternity.

Needing To Think.
I have not been on for quite some time. I do love to write and I think of things to write about all the time. But I have been lazy and depressed and so I am not getting the things done that I want to get done. There is even a Bible verse about this. There has been some things that are troubling me. Behaviors of Christians. There is a new Christianity movement out there where we treat everyone with love and acceptance. But this is not scriptural. We are to speak the truth to other in love. If they argue or disagree. Just walk away. Brush the dirt off of your shoes and go. They are rejecting God's word, not you. There are also those who are very bold and make accusations towards others..with arrogance. I don't think this is right either. Then there are those who talk the talk, read their Bibles daily, but treat people with malice and anger. When it is mentioned to them that they do this, they are nice for a short time and then go back to being verbally foul mouthed angry people. But to their church friends, they are the perfect Christian and the accuser is just a hot head.
I am going to search scripture and study on how we are be witnesses for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Jesus died on the cross for our sins. I believe that the relationship between a believer and Jesus is a private one. We are to live quiet lives and by our example..and our loving words of scripture, others will see Christ in us. They will see our light. I want to be a candle for Christ. I just think aggression and arrogance are not how to tell people about Jesus.
I am not perfect. I have anger issues against those who don't follow the rules. Any rules or laws. I do have fits of anger, but I am so ashamed of my anger and I repent. I know God forgives me. I just don't understand people who hurt others and don't ask for forgiveness. They think they have done nothing wrong. Self minded and narccistic .
More Later.

CHARLIE
I never knew it would hurt so much to lose a pet. I guess I loved him a lot. Charlie was born on October 18, 2010 and died October 10, 2013. I have so much to say. It has affected many people. He is in Heaven now with Emy Rose, my mom, my late husband, Misty, Daydream, Spot, and many others who have gone on to Heaven. He and his cat friend are running around together. His cat friend died the same way he did.
In December, 2007 we got Scout. He was so little. In Sept. 2007, we got Layla. Scout and Layla were best friends from the beginning. She was living in an apartment with a cat that hated her. The cat traumatized little Layla who was a puppy and just wanted to play. She was taken out onto a balcony for outside time. Scout thought it was a playdate. He didn't like bringing her home, but he loved her and protected her, esp from the Chihuahua down the street. That is a story for later.
On October 18, 2010, Scout and Layla became the parents of six puppies. Sooner, Boomer, Halfie, Okie, and two more. We loved those little ones. Sooner ended up being ours. A lady was going to adopt him, but she never came back. Okie was adopted by a very nice lady, Laura. She loved him from the beginning. She did everything she knew to keep him healthy and so he could grow into a beautiful dog. She adopted him sometime in December 2010. In July, 2012 she wrote to us saying her job responsibilities had changed and she had to travel a lot. He was being put in a kennel while she was out of town. She wanted to know if anyone would like a dog. He was one of our babies, so we took him back. At first he was very protective of himself. He's snap at me if he didn't want to do something (come in from outside) It took him a while to learn that we love him and will not give him away. He loved my husband from the beginning. He was Paul's dog. Later I will write about all the things he did that made him "Charlie" Oh, Laura named him Charlie. I loved that name for him. There will never be another Charlie. Charlie learned to love me and it brightened my heart when he came to sit on my lap or to snuggle with me. He was beautiful just like his mommy (Layla) He and Sooner played all the time. About the time that Charlie came back to us, Scout was getting tired of playing with Sooner. Along came Charlie, he was still a puppy. He loved to play!! He was all puppy even though he was a bigger dog than Scout or Sooner.
Charlie liked to run! I like to chase cats! We would have to hang onto him so that he didn't run away. He loved laying in the doggie pen. Running in the doggie pen. He love laying in the sun. He loved being outside.

Education should be funded
I am all for more money going for schools. I said this one time on FB and got bombarded by comments saying the schools have enough money. Comments on how it is the student's fault they are not learning because they don't want to learn. Comments on how teacher's are not working hard enough (just like the man said in this blog.) I KNOW how hard teacher's work, and now there are so many who don't have the help of an assistant. It makes me sick that the teachers are not being paid for a very important, challenging and exhausting job that they do. It makes me sick that children are continued to be disregarded and pushed to the side when it comes to their needs. God Bless those who teach. They should be greatly rewarded!!

SERVING OR ENABLING
I am taking a break from my studies to write a short blog on what I am learning and relearning. My love is writing, but there is so much that I want to write down. I also love studying the Bible. This is my motivation to pass on what I learn. I have come to realize there is a fine line between serving others as he Bible tells to do (which Jesus was the perfect example) and enabling. Enabling has to do with sin. An enabler helps a sinner to continue in their sin. They may feel they are doing it out of love, but it is not love to help someone continue in their sinful life. I will write more on this later after I do a thorough research on the two topics.
Today I want to talk about Matthew 6:21 "Your heart will be where your treasure is" This verse comes up a lot when I research clutter and hoarding. hoarding is sinful. Hanging on to stuff is sin. Some say it is a mental illness. Perhaps for some it is. But for others, it is just worshiping your belongings. We don't need a lot of belongs. We are to just have what we need in life. Items that we absolutely love are those things that we should keep if they are not things we need in life. Everything EVERYTHING! that we have should be for the glory of God or to glorify God. If you are trying to declutter, ask yourself, "Does it Glorify God?" If not, toss it, sell it or donate it. A gift or a souvenir can be something that glorifies God because it is a memory of a loved one or a special time in our lives that we consider a blessing from God.
We should work hard for what we need in life. Work. Serving others is a type of work. Working in pursuit of things that leave us empty and broken inside is not what God wants us to do. We should be weary doing what is good in God's eyes at the end of the day so that we can have a good rest. The Bible does say to not grow weary doing good. This means to not give up. Keep doing good and God will bless you in his time. Keep fighting the fight. Go for the reward which is Heaven. Life is all about Jesus and our reward is Heaven. Jesus is our path to Heaven.
I am so sickened by selfish people. Pursuing what they want. Hurting others who get in their way. They grow weary pursuing things that never satisfy. They are never satisfied. They want more and more. They want it better next time. A higher high you might say. Self and possessions can be sinful.
Enabling helps another with their selfish wants. Serving others is helping them with what they need in life to survive. Serving is love motivated. Enabling is not..by no means. If the Bible says something is a sin, condoning or defending the sin is not love. That is where hate come in. Love tries to stop the sin. Hate allows the sin to continue.
Love is not angry or hateful. Love speaks the truth. The truth is God's words. If someone wont listen when you speak the truth, walk away. Don't take it personally. Brush the dirt off your shoes as they did in the Bible and walk away. Pray for them. Pray for those who hurt you. Pray for your enemies!! Pray for the lost.
Read your Bible, talk to God and pray for others. Learn about Jesus. Serve others.

A MOVIE REVIEW
I am a movie addict. I LOVE movies. I love to just withdrawl in front of my big screen tv and watch a movie. Every now and then I want to give my opinion. A few years back I watched the movie, "Crash" . I was very impressed. It made me feel good that it was up for an Oscar. Not sure what catagory. Also being nominated for an Oscar is not really a sign that a movie is worth watching.
My love of movies began at the age of 3. I fell in love with the big screen watching a cartoon about a wooden boy who longed to be a "'real" boy.
Then at the age of five, I saw a movie that is still my most favorite movie of all time. It gave me facination for the "strange" people in this world. It was also about a boy and a girl and their couriosity of their neighbor. In my opinion, it is the best movie ever made. It did win a few Oscars. "Hey Boo"
Today I just finished watching the movie, "What Maisie Knew" Excellent movie of what so many children go through when their parents divorce. Heart breaking. Many children are like this little girl. Her parents are in their own world, bickering with each other and pushing her to the side. Neglecting and abandoning her. Assuming others will take care of her. She is a burdon to them and doesn't fit in with their lives. Sad. But she does find love and there is a happy ending for her. God hates divorce, it is not in his plan of marriage and parenting, and this is one reason why. Great movie!!
