I wanted to tell all of my readers that I did not abandon you over the past few days. I started having stomach cramps on Friday night and I spent the whole weekend in bed. The doctor said I was clinically positive for covid, which means I had enough symptoms to diagnose it even though no virus was detected. I have a very strong immune system and usually do not catch viral infections. When I do catch them they usually just side sweep me as this one did and I do not develop the symptoms most people get. Jesus Christ blesses me in that way.

Hello Everyone,
Prompt Tuesday, December 1, 2020, TUYC
Proverbs 3:33--35 Be Kind and generous to others. This is the last 3 verses of chapter 3.
33. The curse of the Lord is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.
34. Surely he scorneth the corners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.
35. The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.
NOTES: from my Bible
33. just = righteous - those characterized by right behavior.
34. scorneth = Scoffs, mocks. scorners = scoffers, mockers.
35b. "but fools raise up (elevate, exalt) shame (dishonor)." While the wise inherit honor, fools promote the shame that is consistent with their character.

I agree with this statement and do not believe I could explain it any better. Fools do bring shame upon themselves. There is a man here who claims he does not believe in God. I have tried discussing it with him but was immediately turned off. Someday He will not only believe in God but meet Jesus face to face.

Crossroad  (18+) Do you ever think about a crossroad in your life? #1763856 by Lyn's a Witchy Woman

I think crossroads are important in our lives. It is these crossroads that give our lives variety. They help us become well rounded. When I was in undergraduate school I simply could not understand why I had to take some of the classes I was forced to take. Looking back I can see how those classes rounded me and completed my education.
