Welcome to my blog: I intend to share heartfelt writing about anything that comes to mind. |
 Take UP Your Cross Prompt: 3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. Do you believe our physical health could be a picture of our soul’s health? Why or why not? What are your thoughts about this verse? Answer: In some ways, I think our physical health can be a picture of our spiritual health, but we must be careful not to judge the book by its cover so to speak. Not every illness is a result of someone's personal or family sin. Sometimes it is a result of needed spiritual growth given by God or just so God's glory can be shown either by healing or other means. Again, I think this is a picture of God placing our soul’s health above the importance of our physical health. God cares about our physical health. Don't get me wrong. However, I believe that He may break down the body to save the soul if necessary too. I also think that we need to see the importance of a soul as well. When we witness or give to others to help them, we should keep this in mind. We should care about more than the physical body we see, but also care deeply for the soul inside the body we see.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Current study "Armor of God - Fear The Lord"  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Are you in the need for prayer? Let us know here and we will pray for you.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is the link to the group I do these Scripture writings with on Facebook if anyone else is interested in doing so also. https://www.facebook.com/groups/dailyscripturewritingplan/?ref=share Scripture writing - Ephesians 4:29-32 Scripture: 29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. 30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Observations: Verse 29- Only let good things proceed from your mouth so other can be built up by your words and not torn down. Verse 30- Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit. He is the one that seals our claim to Salvation through the blood of Jesus. Verse 31- Don’t hold onto bitterness, anger, or any malice (evil desires). Don't speak evil towards or about others. Verse 32- Be kind and tender hearted. Be quick to forgive. Love each other with the love of Christ. Application: Build others up. Don't pull them down. This is especially true of our words. Be quick to forgive. Don't even think evil against others. Prayer: Dear God, Help us to show your love to one another. Help us be quick to forgive. Help us to embrace the positive and release the negative in our lives and the lives of others. In Jesus’s name, Amen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gratitude List I have taken a little break from this because I needed it. I will pick it up again soon I think. I was getting a bit discouraged because I felt like I was being repetitive because I wasn't getting out much. When you do a lot of the same thing every day, it is hard to think of new things. It isn't that I am not grateful. However, when I began getting discouraged by the list instead of encouraged by it, it was time to take a break. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Macavity is helping me this evening with the prompt. He wants to know are you a cat person? A dog person? An animal person in general> Do you believe animals add joy to human life? I am definitely more of a dog person. I love animals, but I do have animals I tend to favor more tan others. I do believe animals add joy to our lives when we are right with God and we treat them right. The Bible speaks of even the beasts being at peace with us when we are right with God. Then it also talks about the beasts turning against us when we are in rebellion against him. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  I was having phone problems last night and went off the deep end a little. It's all well now. On the way back from the asylum, I saw a star writing sestinas and other poetry.
. Check it out. It is kind of a sad poem about a lost love, and I think I heard a ton of regret etched in those words. I will try to remember to go back and review it later today. I have some other things I need to do right now. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Use these words in your post today in response to this question: Did I really see that? ornithopter which is a bird-like archaic flying machine, quern is a stone mill worked by hand, trochomancy is divination by studying wheel tracks. I think it would be awesome to see an ornithopter in action. A quern would be interesting too. I enjoy learning about history and science. Trochomancy, on the other hand, I would have to pass on that. It is my belief that any form of divination, while the power is very real, is powered by evil spirits. I do believe in a spiritual world and that angels and demons exist. In fact, I have seen and at least somewhat experienced both. Thankfully, I have had more experiences with angels than with demons. I believe that when you try to harness the power of those demons, they will eventually harness you. I say beware and be careful to anyone practicing divination. Also, if you do find yourself harnessed by those demons, I know of one name to call. His name is Jesus. If you call to him in repentance and a sincere heart, he is able to deliver you out of the demon’s snare.
