I hanged out with pastor and his wife of portland apostolic christian church of america tonight - we had fun! I don't enjoy mostly leaving that church, I don't really want to "live in a suitcase" no more, I want to belong to a church and know I belong a whole lot.........................

  Sheri in her "permanent villian era" 11/1/2023 has now taken a break from knitting scarves (have a nice winter collection by now : ) And am now knitting shrugs....................

it's almost done : ) - done in 1 piece style, I know how to switch off between knitting in the round, to knitting flat, then switching back to knitting in the round again : ) 

Sheri 2023 people come and go in your life and that is ok. 

bad days are real

but often I have many reasons to be positive

and yes the trolls in life abound ABOUND

so much more then is the need to be positive

them arrows will only hit you if you get negative in your brains.............

Isaiah 54:17

No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord." 

(what I painted today, latest in my turtle painting series : )

I hanged out with pastor and his wife of portland apostolic christian church of america tonight - we had fun! I don't enjoy mostly leaving that church, I don't really want to "live in a suitcase" no more, I want to belong to a church and know I belong a whole lot.........................mike said he was glad things are going good for me at living hope ((((((((I don't know though if that's the church for me................like I don't know..................??????????????????????????????))))))))))

  What I do know is this...............

There is a verse that many christians think that if their church loves each other a lot they are the real thing, but I think it applies in the larger sense as well.......that many christians from many denominations if they are truelly following jesus will love each other!!!!!!!!!! John 13:35 "By this shall all men know that ye are mydisciples, if ye have love one to another." Both my best friends are of two entirelly different christian denominations of churches (and I like both their churches)..............this love for one another ----------- exists and isn't bound by what denomination a person belongs to at all I find!

  I had to put on my blog the stuffs I did about the commandments of men.........the moment that I realized "oh the apostolic christian church of america is following a slew of commandments of men and that is bad" I needed to let them know of how bad that is...................................Ephesians 4:25-27 "Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil."

  When people's souls are on the line like that, it's very important to let them know "commandments of men" are bad. (speak the truth to them) 

  Also if say you had a friend doing drugs...............tell them it's a sin, god wants better for them. Ephesians 4:25 ".....................................for we are members one of another."!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

   Maybe they won't listen to you, or maybe they'll listen but not make the change they need to make in their lives til later on...........................it's good to care about each other basically. 

  Can we care to much??????????? Probably not, cause hell it's real..............there will be people that unfortunately will go there. 

2 Timothy 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" The word of god can be used "for reproof, for correction"

  Commandments of men are bad.................ya maybe this is a one time acca horror event that only happened this once I don't know?...............

http://www.scribd.com/doc/47105388/Account-of-First-Experiences-in-America-by-Wendel-Kalman#scribd

  Still commandments of men are something to be avoided.............Titus 1:14 "Not giving heed to Jewish fables, andcommandments of men, that turn from the truth."

  But the apostolic christian church of america has to I guess sit and think about this for a long time more ---------  They think I think that they "get something" out of having the "commandments of men" in their church...............some superiority to the world............they wouldn't have commandments of men and cling to them a slew unless they deemed them "beneficial" 

  people like the "pride of life" out there

 I must say there have been times where I thought "ahhhhhhhhhhhhh I blogged that and that I'm so saintly now" having some pride of life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

  Even now I'm like oh no people aren't going to my blog much at all...........it's stupid though...............my pride of life needs to die. 

 That's part of "loosing ones life" letting go of the pride of life. Matthew 16:25 "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it."

Have a great week earth!

Ms. Cuffee's classrooms fundraiser is now fully funded 😁 But there are many more classrooms with many more needs at Donors Choose....................

Apostolic christian church of america ----- it is ok to attend a occasional baseball game I promise, there's a verse about that in the bible it is called "liberty in christ jesus"...............

Like there's a prayer that says give me the strength to change the things I can change, and accept what I can't change...........................hard at work.................

I cared way to much about the apostolic christian church of america....................they ain't going to change for the better ever mini me from 2015....................... thank god 2023 you is finally in her permanent villian era....I've realized I spent years overweight, FEELING AWEFUL, trying hard to invest into others. BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.........................THAT'S ARTHRITIS CALLING SHERI.......................

📱

Apostolic christian church of america ----- it is ok to attend a occasional baseball game I promise, there's a verse about that in the bible it is called "liberty in christ jesus"...............
Galatians 2:3-4 "But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised: And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:"

   I believe moderation is key. If you start idolizing some these sports stars..............then that is bad. But if you are just going to a ball game to have a fun time with your friends............THAT'S A-OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 I'm about to start playing softball with living hope church this week : ) I posted this pic on my facebook yesterday entitled it "my softball look" - note the headcovering........very important, and the modest attire.........modest attire that is sport appropriate..................

I will at softball fellowship with other believers, and have fun - what could be wrong with that????????------ stay in shape to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Isaiah 61:1 "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;" AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  All these people clean afraid to attend a baseball game they is so sure that is a evil sin they need to find the liberty that is in christ jesus bad the apostolic christian church of america does!!!!!!!!! 

1 Corinthians 10:28-31 "But if any man say unto you, this is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof: Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience? For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God."

  Are there things that are actually bad and sinful out there? - yes as paul said.....................

Romans 6:1-3 "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?"

getting drunk is real bad! 

I definately think it's best to not drink at all, and just stay away from that temptation as much as possible! 

I think bright makeup is bad (natural makeup to highlight what god gave you - is good in my mind, especially if some bare minerals makeup makes a girl feel pretty I'm all for that..................I'm all for women feeling pretty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) 

I DON'T WANT TO WALK AROUND FEELING UGLY OR HOMELY..........little blush can do a girl wonders! 

  Apostolic christian church of america I honestly believe everything isn't evil, you can attend a baseball game - heck you could have a church get together and play softball with each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND HAVE FUN IT'S OK! 

  I'm feeling pretty patriotic at the moment so I'm including the national anthem.................beautiful song..........................

 I love this country! 

(I like a lot the rest the earth to!!!!!!!!!) - gag such a kiss up sheri 2015

humility vs. meekness.........went to montana for little over a week!!!!!!!...........

Update 10/20/2023 this blog post has been highly edited. I think as soon as facebook happened, and instagram happened, many of us started comparing each other to each other whether we realize it or not. How many likes and follows you have is actually so unimportant...................

1 Corinthians 1:27 "But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;"

------------------------- nomadder where we each are in life it's exremely possible for us all to be meek and humble! I think it has to do a lot with having the right perspective in what we are to god....................

a vapor

James 4:14 "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away."

 With the right kind of heavenly perspective it's I believe plenty possible for all us to be "poor and contrite of spirit" "meek" "humble" etc.

   We are all scarcely saved, it's for the better that way, that we not be proud and pufffed up and boastful. 1 Peter 4:18 "And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?" Keep on redeeming the time that's my advice. Ephesians 5:16 "Redeeming the time, because the days are evil." That might be a phone call to a friend, or a writing a friend a letter, or volunteering somewhere etc. the little things do count. 

(view from the viewing cabin of the train I rode...................miles and miles of pretty mountains - I did enjoy riding the train a slew!!!!!!!! It was fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Mrs. Shields classrooms fundraiser is now fully funded 😁 But there are many more classrooms with many more needs at Donors Choose....................

One of the many lies the devil tells people I believe is that if they just get this new car, or this new whatever life is about to be so easy all of the sudden when the truth is: Luke 12:48 "But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more."......................

Everythings works together for my good according to the bible........though my life might seem bleak, I choose to believe the bible. Romans 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

Did I judge my parents here????????????

or was I just having a viewpoint???????????

I think while I was typing this, and even now I think I was merely having a viewpoint. 

the lessen to be learned here

never say anything

about anybody 

cause they will get offended

if there is even the slightest hint of negativity to what you are saying

This blog post in particular is still in my mind, just me wishing my kids had their other set of grandparents..........to late now............my kids are grown now...........................they don't know my parents I don't know my parents either

I don't know them

once I knew them

not anymore 20+ years of them not being actually in my life is just to many years for me to anymore really "know" my parents, know the people that they are

so it's fine I am famililess

but all of us probably have something that's been invested to us

that could just be some money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

talent that you have - is given to you for a reason to use for god if that acting, or singing

but money is also a "talent" 

(bead curtain I made, using paper beads and real beads as well, I'm eventually going to add on much more bead strands, I only had one 20 liter bottle of paper beads made up when I made this - these days I don't like to just hang stuffs on the wall I like stuffs to be "showcased")

One of the many lies the devil tells people I believe is that if they just get this new car, or this new whatever life is about to be so easy all of the sudden when the truth is:  Luke 12:48 "But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more."
   The pastors of the apostolic christian church of america invested in me a lot over the years, and I knew "oh snap now I have to deliver the goods". And now I'm like "increasing" in another way, in a material goods sort of way..............................which also god expect much from us in that way as well to be good stewarts of our money and I think of the things we own. Never is nothing given to me, that god doesn't expect (or men.......aka.............luke 12:48 ".................and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more" THEY WILL ASK) me to do something with.
   And the more I get, or am given THE MORE THAT IS EXPECTED.
  My parents, live far away from me, they said if they lived nearby they would never watch our kids and I would be upset by that. They have some view that if they have no responsibilities or very few, that then they are "winning" and "living the good life". This morning my mom told me in a e-mail that her and my dad finally joined a senior citizen center and are about to take up ballroom dancing.
  Are they winning?????????????????????? (though they were foster parents for my brother's daughter for a few years)
   A older member of the apostolic christian church of america said to me one day "it's good to be in demand". It's good to have responsibilities!
  Is what god is expecting from you lessened in old age???????????? Ya, I think that is possible. But all those grandkids you have old people reading this if you have grandkids GOD GAVE YOU THEM! 
   I am going off on a slight tangent --------- adopting kids and/or becoming foster parents I think is AWESOME..................not to flee from "responsibilities" but embrace them. In my estimation a life that is more abundant, is one where you have people that rely on you.
  If my life was just about me, or just about me and my husband....................I don't think I'd be happy. I don't think that'd be very abundant of a life for me. I'd need to go become a missionary something. John 10:10 "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
   Not that I'm knocking ballroom dancing, that is fun my parents pry will have a good time. (then their plans are to sell their house and move to arizona ------- this being the 2nd time they've moved to arizona to live the retired dream life) They may manage it to, to have little or no responsibilities, to go golfing and go to picknics they showed me this retirement group in arizona, that has all these activities..............................I hope my parents have jesus in their lives cause without christ I can't imagine that stuffs being that fun.
  I'm alright with having responsibilites my entire life. I want to serve!!!!!!!!!!! I want to die knowing I gave my all...............Philippians 3:7-9 "But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:"
  ps..................I don't think you have to have a full time job to have a good "work ethic" either, I believe we all can................Luke 9:23 "And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up hiscross daily, and follow me."

Have a great week earth!

just e-mails and phone calls except I saw my parents maybe 2 times in 20+ years

they ended up "aquaintances" to me then family

........................

there's aquaintances nearby me right..........................more in my life

I can't explain what I'm trying to explain

maybe for some people they could just get e-mails and phone calls and then they knowwwwwwwwwww their parents and their parents aren't strangers to them 20+ years later. 

I don't know them.

I don't know them at all anymore. 

you know well I think people that are phycically in your life - people you see in real life, like once I had a penpal.............................and I did get to know them quite a bit but I never really fully knew them I don't believe, for that I believe I would of had to been physically in their life.....................to witness "do they have manners at stores" for instance

I'm trying to describe something THAT IS REAL

but I'd also like to add

it takes a lot of time, spending time with someone to get to know them

I am much more then my blog

I am much more then even what you see when you stand before me

people are complex

and also people change

I am not the same persron I once was

neither are you probably

some change for bad

some in small increments for the better

some change for the bad

and then start changing for the better!!!!!!!!!! AND VICE VERSA!

Ecclesiastes 9:11

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

how much should we all pray then

if even for the strong and the mighty and actually great "time and chance" happens to THOSE PEOPLE AS WELL!!!!!!!!!

Is Joel Chapter 2 bible prophesy of ISIS???????? IT COULD BE........................

(one my sheep had a baby last night, so cute

Is Joel chapter 2, bible prophesy of ISIS?????????????????.................................it could be...................Joel 2:1-9 "Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand; A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness. They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks: Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded. They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief."

Of course I got this from someone else, I'm always "plugged in" in the body of christ I know that it's important. If I just read the bible myself, I pry wouldn't of even of noticed this chapter like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xb3WJlmEWlQ

I still think sticks in windows work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! verse 9 "they shall enter in at the windows like a thief" you got one those huge dowels in a window.................no theif going to outsmart that pry!!!!!!!!!

.....................but verse 8 is the trippy verse.............................I wonder, I wonder if a member of isis fell on a sword if they would be wounded or not???????????????????????

have we even seen a isis member with a wound?????????????????????????? even a scratch????????????????????????????????????

I'M NOT SAYING ISIS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH GOD, CLEARLY THEY HAVE EVERYTHING TO DO WITH THE DEVIL (and their offshoots killing christians as well..........these are devilish activities (Surat Al-Baqara, 192) cease isis and all isis's offshoots)

But is there any images of isis with wounds?????????? Surely people have tried to fight them I imagine,

things I ponder.................................

then later in joel 2 is I think the ultimate answer to how to defeat isis Return to the lord everyone! please!!!!!!!!!!..........

Joel 2:10-21: "The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining: And the Lord shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it? Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. Who knoweth if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the Lord your God? Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God? Then will the Lord be jealous for his land, and pity his people. Yea, the Lord will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen: But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things. Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the Lord will do great things."

ps........................mom look a bible prophesy blog post pretty cool hugh : )
