Our mighty Father in heaven can get really mad at us when we ask for things we really don't need.
I humbly ask for your forgiveness for my selfish vanity Father, in the name of your Son Jesus Christ. Might I never compare myself with your faithful servants, for I am nothing but a sinner that needs saving. YOU are merciful, kind, and loving while I am unworthy of the salvation you give us all as a free gift. I am but a mess of a creation that indeed was reminded today of your powerful glory. I thank you and praise your holy name for your everlasting gift of life. Thank you for the reminder, as many of your children need reminding. Amen.

What a glorious day you have created our Father in heaven! The ocean today wasn't as warm as it was yesterday, but it was still very nice! The roughness of the past few days churned up a lot of sand close to shore. It was kinda on the brownish side during low tide in the shallows. Past the break it was a beautiful blue green like we expect it to be. Smooth day for a good swim, and not too hot either. Thank you and praise the beauty you share with us daily :) I am truly blessed to be living in my beloved NC again. Cant wait till my bestie comes home here soon for their family reunion. I miss her all the way in AZ. You sure scatter us around. Keep them all safe gathering at the coast this July. Keep my brother safe when he comes down too. Miss my fishing time with the bro. Father in the name of your Son Jesus Christ I praise your goodness upon me~ Amen.

Me too; he has quite a bit to say about miracles btw. It seems to me spiritual Christians truly believing in God's miracles are getting harder to find. So many don't care to notice or try to explain them through science. There is much more to this galaxy than what can be explained by the human mind, if one chooses to open their soul to the misunderstood. Jus' sayin'

True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.

Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
James 1:12

God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.

Of all the bad men, religious bad men are the worst.

Indeed. Romans 2:1 "Therefore thou art inexcusable oh man, whosoever thou art that judgest; for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; fo thou that judgest another doest the same things".
This is one reason why Im accepting of others, and try so hard to forgive. Even people I help which may have burned me badly, I pray for. I was having a conversation with a friend that rented a room from us when in Idaho. He is gay and now married to his husband. We would go to church together; he is a believer and saved. My personal spiritual philosophies include the forgiveness of Christ. Sometimes we forget how forgiving he really is. How are my sins (or anyone's for that matter), and different from his sin of being gay? Mine sins are NOT. That's the whole point. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God". Who are we as men (not of heavenly places), to decide who is forgiven, or why? Might we all quit judging others cause we don't like their particular sins.
Religious bad men will have their day of GOD's judgement for standing behind a mask of righteousness, just like we all will. Are you ready? Better get down on your knees and ask for forgiveness, and truly repent of your sins whatever they may be. Our Father in heaven knows who his children are, no matter how much we mess up.
...and HI Bug! ox'

Amen. It seems as though I pick myself up far too often, as my wings get heavy from all the pollution. Might I keep remembering to shake it off diligently. Prayers sent your way ox'

Father in the name of your Son Jesus Christ, forgive them for their trespasses for they know not what they do. Might you grant them greater insight, compassionate love, strength of courage, empathetic understanding as to the struggles of others, and most of all might you save those lost souls.
It really is always easier to forgive and forget that to carry the weight of unrighteousness. Might you continue to give me the tough love I need to show towards those whom trespass against me, so I might shine as a brighter light for you. Though I wallow through a den of evil I shall not fear, for you are with me. Amen.

dodging the bullets, dodging the bullets keeping my head away from the fire, staying out of sight, staying out of sight during theses times that do seem so dire,
wearing my armor, wearing armor quiet hiding from the guns for hire, the spirit keeps me, the spirit keeps me safe in the world from the greatest liar~
Protect your children from his firey darts Father in the name of your Son Jesus Christ, cover us with your mercy and love, Amen.

Its all is a days work. We never really have time off do we? Ive been cleaning the house all day :( Im happy I have a beautiful home even though I would love more space. Then again lil boo could get rid of a ton of her shyt but the diva has got to have her things, and her tools. Cant forget the giant tool box that takes up way too much garage space. Im working in acrylic's today so I cant splatter in the house like I can with water colors. Ive got plenty of front room space for all my clutter. I love the big window and light in there :) Im crammed in a corner at my lil painting space happy as a southern clam sitting on the shoreline of my imagination... ox' Love to all
Quit being entitled! No one owes you anything! Expectations are for us not others. Jus' sayin'
