ONE OF THE THINGS THAT BUG ME… JUST ONE? No, there are more. But this story is about just one: and I do have the answer! CHRISTIANS AND ‘CHRISTIANS’: Personally, I get very jaded by Christians or ‘Christians’ who give remarkable and/or very biblically correct testimonies at church or in the privacy of their own homes or the homes of others or when they are in a pack with Christians or ‘Christians’… but: put them in a public…..
IT IS ELEVEN AM, June 13, 2023. I just came in the house from cleaning my two bird baths. I love all birdies! So does God! He planned them, designed them, colored them, feathered them; and disbursed them throughout the Earth. Believe or not: just as I stepped away from the second cleaning, a cardinal called to me, thanking me for the well done job! I speak to the birds and flowers and creation I help care for as I’m…..
A while ago Duane was talking to me from his work. Selah! I love that… But not this particular conversation. We had a new couch coming soon with two new end tables. Beautiful! I had told him he needs to hire someone to take the couch out or see if the furniture store guys (Schneiderman’s) would move it out into the garage for us… He put it off and I was getting concerned. In this unpleasant conversation he humbugged me…..
So Duane has a lot (and I mean: a lot!) of outdoor projects that I’m not going into right now. But, it’s rainy and much (very much) to his disappointment he can’t do them. I have the answer! I’m going to tell him: “Duane, don’t worry! (Not that he would.) I’ll just pull out my – I mean your ‘To Do” list!”
WHAT TINA’S TALES ARE: TINA’S TALES are short stories specifically about our Terrier rescue mix, Tina Ann Turner. In addition, I will be posting stories about other dogs. Friends, people with a great ability to love always are enamored by beauty! And dogs are beautiful! They always have a purpose which God has given them: some hunt, some protect, some only and always provide unfaltering companionship! God created them for His pleasure and shares them with us! And some…..
In the Bible, in the book of Philippians, in chapter two, verses nine through eleven, we read Jesus’ name is above every name and God, the Father, exalted Jesus Christ and everyone, everyone, everyone will not only bow down to Jesus, but will openly admit Jesus Christ is Lord! Philippians 2:9-11 For this reason also God highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at…..
I WON’T NEED NOR WANT a privacy fence in Heaven. Isn’t that great? Isn’t that wonderful?! Isn’t that lovely!! Selah! Privacy fences are for keeping your property, given by God, sacredly yours, allowing no interlopers to steal your peace, joy, safety… The children of God on Earth cherish getting away from the rat race. A swimming pool, badminton game, along with a grill and patio furniture help you to feel the joy of solitude with no sin. Selah……
DON’T! PLEASE DON’T!! Let me help you!! Thinking of suicide? I did. I remember I was probably about twelve. If you know about me, I grew up in a godless home with an invalid father who became terribly disabled mentally and physically when I was six or seven. It was more like having a mentally and physically disabled brother… I became to believe I felt as though I had no father… As I grew somewhat older, I had…..
I am America (also)… And I have not cast out God! Selah. By the way, He cannot be! He is omnipresent: Jeremiah 23:23-24 “Am I only a God nearby,” declares the Lord, “and not a God far away? Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?” declares the Lord. “Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the Lord. Psalm 139:7-12 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your…..
God’s Word is for stumble-prevention. 2 Peter 1:3-11 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith…..
