If you have to lie to keep your lifestyle… you had better change your lifestyle! Revelation 21:8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
VERBATIM ON ONE PARTICULAR DAY a woman I had worked with long ago actually did say to me: “Why didn’t you tell me he was here?! I would have acted different!” She said that! She actually said that!! AND: she claimed to love God! Here’s the situation. She bluntly stated directly to me: “… I would have acted different!” KEY WORD: ACTED You know, Beloved, so many people do; they really do! They act: they playact. They act at playing…..
Mark 11:23 “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. PAGE 2 SQUASHED MOUNTAINS… A FAKE MAN! ONE THING I REALLY DO NOT LIKE AT CHURCH SERVICES IS the greeting the pastors insist we give: ”Say hello to the person next to you and shake hands.” Some pastors…..
HAVE FUN WITH YOUR HUSBAND! Our sink has been draining every so slowly of recent. I had fun with Duane I didn’t even intend to have… Sometimes you have to throw things out. Selah. I love Caribou Coffee! I need to take off weight (not lose it – I need to deliberately take off a lot of weight.) So, one of my Good Girl Deeds today was to dump out the rest that I really, truly (almost certainly – no certainly)…..
Your reputation is highly important… Your character is important. What you say is what you should not only do but it should also be what you are, who you are – honest, godly. Selah. People do judge… Did you know there is biblical grounds to judge? Let’s get our theology right! Christians are good for we have been cleansed in the blood of The Lamb; we are safe, we are sealed by the Great I AM. Our spirits are new,…..
MAKE THIS YOUR CORE LIFESTYLE: “Without a doubt, without a lie….” Fill in the rest. John 8:31-32 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
I am not compatible with liars… Good for me! Ephesians 5:11-14 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” The Fellowship of the Believers Acts 2:42-27 They devoted…..
TIP #13… AN EXCELLENT TIP NOT ENDORSED ENOUGH! When your wife re-visits an issue you don’t want her to… tell her. Titus 3:1-2 Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good, to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and always to be gentle toward everyone.
SOME OF THE SWEETEST WORDS… “That’s my fault.” Proverbs 24:26 An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.
TIP #7 LAUGH AT YOUR IMPERFECTIONS… Duane won’t let me grocery shop (thank You, God!) because I want in and out. He’s a coupon guy and our head chef. This is just one way he’s a careful consumer… He’s always checking costs (we get the most value when Christmas shopping.) He holds onto receipts for a good, long time. This scenario will help you understand TIP #7: A dear friend of mine was telling me he loved his…..
