Live The Day

 I love it when people get quiet and let me ramble my thoughts...

I appreciate when people can admit they learned to do better.

Because I believe we should wake up and try to make each day better than the day before! I know sometimes we can't and things don't go as perfect as we would like. But the thing is... we try! 

I do believe in 'practically perfect people'! I have seen them! And I see them a lot! 

Not like the fake people. Not the ones who pretend to be good when their really not.

Those are the people we should be aware of. The pretenders. Because pretenders want us to believe their lies. They don't want us to see the inside of their real lives, where its filthy dirty and just a plain mess. A train wreck, even. 

Thing is... even a pretender can learn to do better!

GOD always gives us time to make it to be a 'PPP'... that is to learn and grow in the way of goodness and truth. Dealing with life in truth. Which is something to many people are not doing these days. 

The coming of Jesus (holy ghost) into your life will personally expose the lies... you see your not a robot created by only GOD knows what. You are a real person and you are able to know lies from truth when GOD lives within your heart and mind. 

Can someone live a good life without GOD? Well, this is 2 sided... Either you have no sense of direction and you live a life full of mistakes and you suffer the consequences of them and you learn as you go... or you are lucky to have someone raise you that teaches you the ways of GOD without using words...  (word of GOD)...YES... but either way, within its origins... it will always go back to Jesus. 

There are so many religions who don't explain Jesus for being GOD in the flesh... or the reason of Jesus... 'his message'. They make it about themselves... as men. They are what GOD calls false religions. Lots of info on that on google! But when you invite GOD into your heart to live and you ask GOD to lead and guide you... U do become aware of the false teachings. Because you gain the SPIRIT of GOD... which is called the Holy Ghost. You can't see HIM, but you can FEEL HIM!

This in turn brings about the wisdom of the ages.

That is people who have been here, and got done and learned how to be a PPP in the process.

Being a PPP brings great JOY to a soul!

Being a PPP limits many of the pitfalls in life. 

We should all as GODS children make it our daily goal to do better than the day before... and once we get US fixed GOD gives us the ability to have a story that helps other people find direction!

It's never easy when they want to argue... I mean... The Lord is with me... HAHAHA... most always I leave people speechless... HAHAHA but I also pray and ask GOD for the patience and wisdom to finish it off quickly! I mean... all my kids and grandkids know I will explain it over and over in different ways until they say they understand... and I know they get it cause their little faces light up!

But my family, I hope will know that all the honor and glory goes to GOD... because without HIM I probably would be dead already. I can count more times over! My son says he doesn't believe in GOD... but that is because I raised him up alone, against all odds. But in my heart it was always GOD who pulled me through! Even if it was the angels who carried me... GOD sent the angels!

Oh yes... I was going to say in that last paragraph... that at last my son has started making statements to me that says he gets it now! So even if we don't use words... he has a sense of morals and manners and ethics. 

For me, I do believe in a higher power... my life is not that perfect that I don't need Jesus!

And it all seems to work! And honestly I don't mind shutting up! But I can't until something I'm thinking is made clear. And believe me... I pick my battles! Or maybe GOD just knows when I'm wasting my breath and allows me a break. 

But I just go everyday... doing what is put before me to do. Thanking GOD that there is still value in what I do, which has nothing to do with home or family. I thank GOD for leading me into the way that I can still learn... as I spread what I have learned to others. Its a nice process!

And I hope you can do the same!

GOD Bless US Everyone!

Truth Of GOD

 Something really upsetting happened the other day. Umm yesterday. My second grand daughter so casually said.. "I don't believe in GOD." Whaaattt? How could she say that after knowing me for almost 13 years? It really stunned me and sorta upset me. But I knew exactly what to say to her... and anyone who says they don't believe in GOD. 

So... your saying that you don't believe in LOVE??? Or the truth? Because GOD is a label that we put on LOVE and TRUTH... and WISDOM... lets not forget wisdom as being the top shelf thing that we get from GOD... because inside us all... there is a seed of evil and a seed of good... we must decide which to cultivate! Because all this amounts to, is the ability to know the truth of what is real and honest and good. You see, there IS a difference between right and wrong and many, many people have no clue about it or what makes them different. 

So what GOD did for HIS PEOPLE is to have US write what we know!

There is good 'v' bad... wrong 'v' right... truth 'v' a lie. There is also a HUGE difference between 'saintly actions' and 'demonic actions'. And being a Christian gives US the chance to learn the difference!

Its from really smart people of the day, who LOVE others and who promote TRUTH and JOY!

Truth being... The Joy Of The Lord Is My Strength!

Its wonderful to live with a smile on your face and feel the joy of the good life! Knowing you have multitudes of people who LIVE and ones who have died and are in the spirit now, who love you and want to help you. Doesn't matter live or dead... because we are all just a step away from there too!

Now, how can something survive for so long and not be real? I can tell you its all about unseen evidence... you have to see through the eyes of the spirit! You can do that with the holy ghost inside you... its a small piece of 'the spirit of GOD' that comes alive in you when you seek it!

Without the spirit... you only see through fleshly eyes. You have no clue what it all means. You just live doing what makes you happy. And if that's good enough for you, then... you're going to miss out on 50% of your life's potential. And I can promise... GOD will always be there waiting on you to finally get it. Even if its on your death bed and you start seeing people who have passed. You get the picture.

Choosing GOD is a choice for the GOOD... anything else will take you down a dark path, to say the least. Being a Christian sets you up to know before hand what lies around the bend. Knowing GOD prepares you for your darkest hour. Knowing GOD gives you the heads up you need to make a better, more informed decision.

The bad part is there are many demons who sneak in your life, when you are unaware of what the bad parts of life can do to you. My heart goes out to all the women... errr (and young men) who get blindsided and the demons take their life. And then their poor spirit is stuck like Chuck... in a place where they can never go back and right a wrong choice... or fix a deadly mistake.

Just because U choose not to believe in GOD, doesn't mean HE does not exist.

When you choose the wrong path, you set yourself up for a fall. We've seen it happen many times. Many different people. Several times throughout history! You could study these cases for years and would never know all the stories that can be told. You get the message early on, if your smart!

GOD is what unites US as a PEOPLE... a good people who live to make life better for everyone! There is never a true man or woman of GOD who thinks only of themselves. They always think of others in their life! They keep others in their hearts! They do good their whole lives knowing that they have set a good example for others who will come after them. And follow a path well worn.

It is GOD who gives US good direction in this life!

Who doesn't want good advise? I just wish I would of had parents who gave me good advise... I just wish I would of had parents who set a good example for me. But they both were whores... caring only where they could get their next piece. Not caring about their children... who can see them lie and cheat. And many other bad things I saw them do. And saw the things that they didn't do.

I had friends... I saw their parents. Oh boy... I feel cheated.

But I also thank GOD for giving me the attention of my maternal grand parents who only had 1 child, my mother... Thank GOD my Grandparents LOVED US enough to make the sacrifices they made to take care of us. Ohhh, they were devout Methodists. Good GODLY people who cared.

I am not saying that Methodists are the only religion that cares... there are many good religions who teach US the words of GOD and the actions of Jesus and all the Saints before him. I would never limit GOD to 1 religion. HE IS THE GOD OF LOVE for all who LOVE HIM!

So this morning, there was my 2nd grand daughter hanging with my 1st grand daughter talking about some of the wonderful things of GOD! You see... Ya just have to put it in the right perspective!

Praise GOD Thank U Jesus!

GOD Bless US, Everyone! IJCNA

Listening to GOD

As I was passing by one of the rooms earlier today I heard a preacher man, I don't know who it was. Didn't know his voice. But I heard part of his message.

He was talking about the scripture where Jesus says it rains on the just and the unjust. There is more than one message there, but today I am talking about how bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad people. This is so deep you really have to take deep thought to understand. 

So yes... bad things do happen to good people and we should have faith in GOD to get us through... and not be upset or whine about it. 

This is true... and I knew it was true... But then... I heard GOD saying 'but there's more' ... and I took note... when a person is raised up with Christians or for someone who is a babe in Christ... They learn by reading 'the word of GOD' and when you know what is bad, you can avoid it! 

So many times you can avoid the consequences of a certain action.

How can I not suffer certain consequences? By not doing the actions that bring it on! For example... if you don't want to have a child? Don't do the actions that cause it! Well that's a really bad example because GOD want's us to have children... "For such is the kingdom of heaven!" said Jesus!

Lets say... if you don't want to get fat! Don't eat the extra calories needed to get fat! 

Now the problem is... people have lost touch with GOD and they don't know the difference between good and bad. Its a pandemic! And adultery or fornication can produce an unwanted child. Or eating all you want can cause you to get fat! Now I know this is not 100% accurate because these days there is such a thing as birth control and also there are people who barely 'want' to eat... but I am speaking for those who love sex and who love to eat more than they want to care about it.

Now see that is why GOD's first commandment says "... have no other gods before me."  And yes the world is full of other gods... we can make sex or god... or we can make food our god... and that goes for many things... we can make our car our god... or our make up or our clothes... and on and on and on... 

BUT... 

GOD gives us warning... "I am the Lord your god... you should have no other gods before me."

That is to say we should LOVE GOD more than anything... because 'GOD IS LOVE'!

Our only commandment in our current contract with GOD is to 'LOVE ONE ANOTHER'!

When we LOVE GOD more than anything else we appreciate HIS wisdom that HE has set before US in HIS word!! Yes, if we remember GOD as wisdom, we can read all the words that keep us safe!

Therefore if we follow in HIS wisdom we would know what gluttony is and we would avoid getting fat. I think it is very sad that we are conditioning the people to accept being fat. Because it is not healthy and our fat people will die early. I mean obesity is like one of the top killers. So it would be more godly to help our fat people to lose weight! Not to accept the fat. You know.. 'It's not fit to be fat.' So a good friend would HELP others not to be fat. 

The easiest way is to educate our children to the truth of being fat, so they can avoid the problem of over eating! Because it IS NOT FUN to have to be on a diet and deny yourself the food you are used to getting! But if we must suffer the denial... so be it. It is the consequence of years of over eating. Which could of been avoided if I, we... had just followed the word of GOD.

Some people don't want to know GODS word because they would have to stop over eating or stop that affair... so on and so forth... to cover a multitude of sins... 

We just have to rely on the guidance of GOD to lead us into the way that is good and right and true! Because GOD is a label we attach to the good and the right and the truth! 

This is the way that it will be when Jesus returns... and he is not going to come out of the sky... but he will be apart of the GOOD things in life and PEOPLE will then emulate and act like Jesus and choose things like Jesus... and suffer things like Jesus. 

But the time will come when there will no longer be people who suffer... because they are so 'in tune with Jesus' that... 1 they won't be doing things that hurt others... and 2 they will encourage others to do the same!

After so many years... it will become a habit! But we must always give GOD the glory for leading us with such wisdom. When we start glorifying ourselves... that will bring on arrogance and arrogance is not giving GOD HIS just due... in fact it is an abomination unto GOD.

You know when GOD gives 'you' credit? when U give HIM the credit! Because we know that all good things come from the goodness that GOD has commanded!

Here's the icing on top...

GOD is alive and well and living in the hearts and minds of HIS PEOPLE

When I was on the way to the store earlier today... There was a truck working to repaint the lines on the road. They do this at a time most people are busy at home. So, the wind was blowing and the spray was flying... instead of getting upset and cussing my way through the white spray... I pray to GOD... and I suddenly had a vision of 'me avoiding the spray' by turning into a bowling ally and going fast to the next drive and avoiding the spray... inside I was worried that I wouldn't make it and would have to pull out after the truck had passed... but can U believe??? I made it!  I heard GODS instruction and went with it... jumped on it... went as fast as I could in the right path! And it worked perfectly...

Just the way that GOD had planned for me!

YES! 

Heaven is when GOD takes you to a place where you can do good...

And can avoid the bad stuffs!

Praise GOD, Thank U Jesus!

GOD Bless US, Everyone!
