Being a christian isn't about how you look - it's about how you love (do you bear fruit for jesus) I've been beat down much by past churches over how I look.................

2/3/2024 my oldest "sons" surgery went well. My cold is still lingering around....but am at the end of it finally. To the point where I can breath easier. Have a sore throat but even that is getting better. 

 I agree with myself here from 2016. But over the years I've had stupid hairdo's and this is one of them.

(It's impossible not to offend people or upset people it's going to happen, it is literally impossible to please everyone WE CAN PLEASE GOD THOUGH).................

my wig above I hadn't clipped the front piece in right here's some more pics........so everyone can breathe a sigh of relief, I do know how to clip in fake hair..................I think I look basically adorable, I'm happy with this look : ) it's cool, the tichels are much to hot for the summer, and I worry about getting heatstrokes as it is........................

(and yes I beaded the native american barrette in above photo, I am like 1/3 or so native american from both sides of my family.....lived next to a multi tribe reservation for 4 years had many native american friends : ) 

Bible verses spoken about in above video..........Ephesians 4:2 "With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;"
1 John 3:2 "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is."

Mark 13:13 "And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved."

Philippians 2:8 "And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."

 I want to be like jesus, I want to love, I want to forgive, I want to be longsuffering in love.................

I want to show people mercy Matthew 5:7 "Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy." I don't know about you all but I want to find me some mercy!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

////////////////////deep thought for today............if we love our enemies, if we pray for them............I think we indeed can win..................Romans 12:21 "Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." If you love people you are a winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Proverbs 23:7 "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee." Figured out I can "thinketh" good for people in my heart, have it good for them in my heart and really win in that. 

  ------------------ sidenote, ya I've battled low self esteem, I've had a supermodel sister for years now. It's hard to have a supermodel sister and not feel like homely or ugly garbage. Someone in my family is getting married next month and that also propensiated the need for a wig, to try and look comprible to the miriads of drop dead gorgeous people that are in my family for reals!

  But bodybuilding is helping me out, something about being buff that gives me a "self esteem boost" ---------- a much needed self esteem boost!!!!!!!!! I ain't there yet though, hard at work dieting every week, pinpointed my diet as my current obstacle, to my bodybuilding goals. 

I quote the below song: "light of the world shine on me, love is the answer" amen!

Have a great week!

LOVE
