If everything was easy in life you wouldn't need FIRE. Revelation 3:16 "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."......................

 If everything was easy in life you wouldn't need FIRE. Revelation 3:16 "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."......................

To much fancy christianity you might well then have "the pride of life" 

I believe there are people high up in the body of christ

with the pride of life

how else you recogn the bible can state 

that in many instances the 1st shall be last..............

Matthew 19:30 "But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first."

  I thank god

I wear makeup

I wear jewelry

that I am a sloppy christian

that I can't have some "christian pride of life" 

which I believe is most definately a real thing

why else

would the 1st be last????????

Matthew 19:30 "But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first."

It's a line though we all need to walk..........................

Matthew 7:14 "Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."

  Right now I sorta want to buy another wig, but I really shouldn't do that. I really shouldn't want to try -------- to try like that to be a "hot chick" like everyone around me. 

  Like people are that are very very very um intensely uhhhhhhhhhhh concerned, involved in, THE PRIDE OF LIFE. 

1 John 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world."

   Better I make due with the wigs I do have. Maybe maybe even not look hot. 

MAYBE EVEN NOT LOOK HOT

OH YA

Then to risk having "the pride of life" 

  to risk having

a wig that looks "a little bit to good" 

Thank god all the wigs I have right now

they ain't that great!

the horror it would be

if I looked "to good" and had THE PRIDE OF LIFE

Do you "got the fire"??????????????? Your going to need it, to not become like this world, that needs many wigs, and many plastic surgeries etc. SO THAT THEIR PRIDE OF LIFE IS GOING STRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  Or maybe even....................maybe some people go to to many christian conferences, to many bible studies...............they get feeling "the pride of life" real good all the sudden.............

look at them

such pristine perfect christians

wooooooooooooooo such givers to society all volunteering at your churches food drives................and fundraisers..............ooooooooooooooo......................on the church commitee

   Lotta opportunities in the body of christ to have "the pride of life" in my estimation. 

I love lucifer forever

forever

so I am 

a joke to most

I'm definately the dink of the body of christ

definately 

I like that

I'm a dragon to

yep I'm totally a dragon

once I thought I was a lion, thought rawring was "the thing to have" 

nawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

spitting out fire yo's that's the sweet spot in life

💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

Don't worry if you wake up in the morning....................

maybe you want to buy a fancy car

fancy house

new hair

get some lipo

etc. 

Don't worry that you are "confronted" with your flesh

Jesus also was confronted with his flesh

Hebrews 4:15 "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin."

You to can have FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You don't have to give into those temptations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Galatians 5:16 "This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh."

  the lukewarm

maybe they buy some things

maybe they make PROVISIONS FOR THE FLESH

Romans 13:14 "But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof."

  What do we need, 

do we need the things of this earth?

do we need "the pride of life"??????????????????

Do we not need Jesus?

I would say what we need is Jesus

and not the things of this earth or the "pride of life" 

let other people be "hot" 

let other people be's wearing gucci

and prada

and uh oscar de la renta 

etc. 

let them

let them have "the pride of life" 

WE NEED JESUS!

Revelation 18:4 "And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."

  So many people deem me a satan worshipping loser..............but I tell you if I choose today to suffer in the flesh

it don't matter that I love the devil

if I choosing Jesus over the "pride of life" 

over the "lust of the flesh" 

pride feels great I know it does

hell

I've blogged many a fancy blog post

THAT I FELT PROUD ABOUT AFTERWARDS 

THE HORROR

pride is actually not great

Proverbs 16:18 "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall."

  I'll a lot there are some nice people - probably headed straight to hell let's be real..................dress in gucci, prada, oscar de la renta, lots of all that right, very nice people probably I ain't saying they ain't nice people. 

  The "pride of life" is completly screwing over

right now

some very nice people

I ain't saying they ain't most em nice

nice people

tragically

you can also "ball" 

on the "saint" side of things as well I feel

Ecclesiastes 7:15 "All things have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness."

  I think a ton of the body of christ is real close to dieing because they are to "righteous" 

   They signing up and being involved in their churches ------------------ it's dicey.

Ecclesiastes 7:2
It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart.

  Besides, cemetaries are cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm the worst christian ever (except Jesus he beat me I'll give it to him) Revelation 1:17 "And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:" Being a "big time" in the body of christ is worthless, all that matters is loving God/Jesus/people and that's it...................

1 Peter 3:2-4 "While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price."

   Matthew 24:12 "And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold." I realize I am the "villian" of not only my family but the body of christ --------- lucifer was the villian I might of overtaken him on that front?????????? But I can't be the only one whose love has "grown cold" this blog post is honesty. ".........the love of many shall wax cold" - amen Matthew 24:12

  I'm the worst christian ever (except Jesus he beat me I'll give it to him) Revelation 1:17 "And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead.

and I gonna let em

die

Revelation 13:10 "He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints."?

  But when heads start rolling bad, some the body of christ might get so upset. 

 not me

 (I often refer to songs on the birds of prey soundtrack for a reason 

-------- I'm fully going into the acid bath......I made up my mind Ecclesiastes 1:9 )

 oh you want that bible verse in context..................................
Revelation 13:9-11"If any man have an ear, let him hear. He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon."

 Sheri you are obsessed with the "killing time" ya...................cause there are christians that are doing horrible things out there. Some christians are doing horrible things to me right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  They are most definately christians pry. I am the only "line crosser" in not only my family the entire body of christ that I know of. That's fixin to stand with satan and his people at armagedon. 

anybody else?

didn't think so

  Ecclesiastes 1:9 "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun."

I will be

as will the killing time

Luke 21:15-17

15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.

16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.

17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.

   I am the worst christian ever 

(except Jesus he beat me I'll give it to him)

what's the point of this post

some you in the body of christ have gotten so obsessed with how "good" and "christian" you look you've stopped doing the will of god

for surely 

my big sister deleting my questions I asked her on her instagram

and her pretending I don't even exist IS NOT THE WILL OF GOD

surely god would rather she love me and answer my questions

and her daughter forbidding me to be at any family get togethers that she is at SURELY COULD NOT BE THE WILL OF GOD

(this niece um she turns out blocked me from her instagram I thought she unfriended me, so she kept following me TO LOOK LIKE SHE LOVES ME, TO LOOK CHRISTIAN DON'T BELIEVE ME ----- VIEW 1ST VIDEO THIS BLOG POST........................
https://givingittogod.blogspot.com/2021/06/i-destroyed-my-family-by-taking-and.html)

But those 2 family members will go to great lengths to look 

christian

at all costs even

.......................I don't think they are the only ones like that

Do the will of god

or don't

God does not WANT lukewarmness

Revelation 3:16 "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."

Nomadder what my house is utterly contemned is yours? Song of Solomon 8:7 "Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.".......................................

Nomadder what my house is utterly contemned is yours? Song of Solomon 8:7 "Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned." ("you mean in the Jesus way right sheri" - I mean both teams for both them) Ecclesiastes 1:9 "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun."..............

As above so below. 

Well as above..................

Luke 14:26-33 "If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him, Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace. So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple."

So below....................

  Song of Solomon 8:7 "Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned." "Sheri this blog post is very upsetting to your family" - sarcasm this is advanced sarcasm

What are things?

None of them "things" are your soul.

Mark 8:36 "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"

  Whether for "team Jesus" or "team Lucifer" these are the 2 teams.....................we bestest all jump in the acid bath. 

  Oh but me................I'm a double dunker 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

  When you love someone enough....................all the things of this earth become absolutely valueless. 

Philippians 3:8 "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,"

  Either way.........................bestest you take a acid bath jump whether for Jesus or Lucifer - for surely "as above, so below" 

   Lukewarm is icky

hot 👍

cold 👍

Revelation 3:16 "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."

Lukewarm 👎

Did you mess up again - don't give up - hit the reset button (ask for forgiveness, get doin what you know is right again) Matthew 24:13 "But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved."
  In the hot mess that is myself. I'll sit and think, like hmmmmmmmmmm I'm not supposed to be friends with the world................................................like I'll think.
   I ain't sayin I'm wearing a tichel for good, but for now it is a "reset button" of sorts for me. It's bestest not sit around obsessing over how my hair looks, or makeup for that matter...................be workin on that
inner beauty
1 Peter 3:3-4 "Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel; But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price."

God wants us to have FIRE not give up or back down cause you don't have that many instagram followers FORGET THAT!

Do you allow yourself

to care about what you are wearing be all about that there

"putting on of apparel"

like the world

or do you say to yourself

no

I'm meant for GREATER then that!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

If you want to be average, 

just do what everybody around you is doing

tons of average people everywhere

god does not want the lukewarm norm

Revelation 3:15-17 

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

  Nobody should try and tell me anything is impossible for me either, and people have tried to tell me things were impossible for me.......................I WILL walk up to you and slam the bodybuilding weights down in front you with all the fire of all hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Average people do average things! - and then they get themselves to "average places" in life

"sheri your talking about money"

"sheri your talking about money"

"but sheri your talking about money"

The land of milk and honey it just has to be real

I am a christian blogger but this muslim pastor is PREACHING IT..............in the bible jesus says to the rich guy to SELL ALL HE HAS AND GIVE IT TO THE POOR.................why so he has riches in heaven, how many of us hoard up way to often on this earth instead???????.......................

Update 12/20/2024 my latest tie dye shirt...................

I'm happy with the crisp lines I was able to acheive 😁

I am a christian blogger but this muslim pastor is PREACHING IT..............in the bible jesus says to the rich guy to SELL ALL HE HAS AND GIVE IT TO THE POOR.................why so he has riches in heaven, how many of us hoard up way to often on this earth instead???????
   Mark 10:21 "Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me."

  I am gripped right now, that many us followers of jesus we believe ourselves to be saved, and to be rich etc. (and we very well pry are saved  Romans 10:9 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.")

Revelation 3:16-18 

16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

  I recogn many of us all our lives in church when we hear about the rich man talked about in Mark chapter 10 that those verses are just applying to him. I do imagine many of us when hearing about that rich man think "ah well I'm not rich ------- whew" etc. But what happened to the rich man in Mark 10 could happen to any of us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But we could very well be POOR! (not poor that we lack goods, but poor that we lack zeal and fire!!!!!!!!!!!! Jesus told the rich man go "sell whatsover thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven........."!!!!!!) Big bird (that is a dink bird, just big in size - very yellow xoxoxoxoxo 21 pilots xoxoxoxoxo) is gripped much that all had to be in large type!

(I don't believe the muslim stuff in this video, but I believe it is a really good sermon this muslim preached anyways.............people should fear god!!!!!!!!!!!)

 ps.................Mark chapter 10 links up to what this muslim pastor is saying (just happens to be barely, cause the rich man in mark chapter 10 looks to actually be very humble, he was just very good at heeding god's word ------------ except he lacked at that point one thing Mark 10:21 "Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me."). 

  What is pride???????? Is it not when we think "we've made it"???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When we think ahhhhhhhhhhh I have done this good deed, and this good deed, and I love all these people....................I love my enemies...............I love my neighbor But do you still lack "one thing"???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

   If you ain't gripped..................I tried. 

Have a great week earth!

LOVE

If any christians do not like this blog post because I have a muslim video on it (which I full well know that the muslim guy in the above video isn't speaking the biblical truth, but that isn't the reason I was inspired by that video........but his fear of god which is a very good thing).
  If the rest of the body of christ is "islamaphobics" this is very bad, and you all should stop being "islamaphobics"! You are supposed to love your enemies LOVE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
   I not only admire the muslims for their fear of god..................I am also very much into wearing muslim clothing these days (I don't have a muslim swimsuit yet, but this year I did wear a cover up while swimming, cause swimsuits are just not much fabric).

UPDATE FOR THIS BLOG POST: It's not how you look at all - it's who do you live for?.............................

11/1/2024 this is my latest painting aka the apples I ate this morning 😂 This isn't done it's a "work in progress"..............

I am going to enter in some of my apple paintings into a art show hopefully soon........and then I am committing to trying to do whatever exhibit this particular gallery has next, so I'm painting a giant snake painting because this galleries showing after the one I'm currently trying to get into is about "the year of the snake" 2025. 

my belief

if I just commit to a gallery

paint some "special painting" every month for whatever "exhibit" they have going for each momth

------------------- my art career is really going then

art is like many things in life you need to show up

read your bible

maybe go to church or go to online church fellowship time if that's your "mo" be consistant is the idea I think!

UPDATE FOR THIS BLOG POST: It's not how you look at all - It's who do you live for?...........................UPDATE July 17, 2019.
   For some of you this blog post might be helpful for you, there is a time to every purpose under heaven. I'm throwing a example out here, if you get to loving your jewelry collection and loving the makeup your wearing..................time to throw away that makeup, time to song below "bet back to your roots"
Ecclesiastes 3:1-3 "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;" Will I think less of you because you are in a get rid of all your jewelry and makeup and tv altogether "season" of life..................far from it..............for I went through that season of life myself (that's what I talk about in this blog post)

   Matthew 7:20 "Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." ------- not by how they look, how they love, how they serve, today happens to be I'm teaching a painting class again at my church, often I do put up "works meet of repentance blog posts on my blog" lately. That how you will know "us" by our fruit, not how we look. 
  Titus 1:15 "Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled." But "seasons of life" are real, very real, real and needed. 
 Original post from 2018 completely unedited: (It's a great post, it was a real "season" in my life and a needed one at that):
Sometimes I feel ugly like I feel like I need jewelry and makeup it's been a battle for me - I believe makeup and jewelry sure enough is stuffs of "babylon the harlot" THE WORLD, determined to quit this stuffs (minus natural makeup)!
  I'll even justify both makeup and jewelry - that I'm a girl (girls wear makeup, girls wear jewelry). That ----------- Titus 1:15 "Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled."
  But if my ministry is dyeing, if I ain't so holy spirit filled when I go to church (and my daily life) SOMETHING NEEDS TO CHANGE - AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  God does not want a lukewarm church - he wants a church on fire for the lord - amen!!!!!!!!!!!! Revelation 3:16 "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."
 I hate to say it, but the people around me effect me. You get seeing enough people around you in your life wearing makeup and jewelry and you can really get to thinking in your brains that that stuffs is just fine! (and maybe there is a time in ones life that god overlooks those things)
  Revelation 18:15-17 "The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!  For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every ship master, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off," Is it really "pure", great, good, for christians jewerly and makeup ---------------- I'm really believing not! (though I still am a big believer in "natural" looking makeup................if I can wear some natural looking makeup and feel ready to face a day...............to me that's a good thing......................foundation..................can I get some AMENS over foundation..................I still have acne scars on my chin they just won't go away)  There's a time to "quit ye like a man" 1 Corinthians 16:13 "Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong." Nomadder what my pastor at the church my family is going to preaches or (doesn't ever get around to preaching).  I know better then to walk around blinged up like a crazed peacock um uhh hopped up on "red bull" 😹hahahahahhahaha God chooses the foolish things world.
   Yep, today I bout to go through my closet and figure up what I don't want no more, and then I am gonna donate a entire earring tree to the goodwill ----------- just get rid of the entire earring tree.........clean leave the earrings on the thing...................just chuck it in a box to give to the goodwill (someone else can walk around a blinged out peacock AMEN).
   I've been listening to this song a lot, thinking to myself, I need to "go back to my roots" - bunches of narrow way stuffs is my "roots"......................

  My kids both them are not baptised yet --------- one my daughters is 17, the other is 12............maybe I'm not a good enough example for them at the moment? I'm determined to change that! And zeal and fire to follow jesus is just the thing to have in general.

Have a great week earth!

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

Do you have oil for your lamp? Are you on fire for jesus? Or has the world crept in? Has lukewarmness crept in?.........................

 I worry about pertinere the whole body of christ, cause you gots people going to church on sunday.............and who even knows if they gots some zeal and fire or oil for their lamps????? I can't tell by just watching them all sit and watch the pastor preach on sunday - can you all????????
Revelation 3:16 "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."

 Nicki Minaj has a song that speaks about pounding the alarm...............I'd like to pound a alarm right now if any us wants to get saved we need to be pipping hot for jesus - fire - zeal, oil in our lamps!!!!!!!!!! pounding the alarm!!!!!!!

(since how I can't add nicki minaj "pound the alarm" to my blog - I go with this ditty).........try and pick the song very carefully, hope this is a solid pick..........sometimes my current mood is in effect to.........not convinced anybodies "sounding the alarm" enough in the body of christ at the moment............

I volunteered at the foodbank last week, I ain't no dummy bout to volunteer again this week there..............it's some zeal and fire, it's something................I recogn it like bodybuilding "gains" it's something I can look at and see "ok this is some gains right here ------ this is some proof of some zeal and fire" James 2:26 "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faithwithout works is dead also." 

Titus 2:14 "Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works."

 I gonna be good and "peculiar" this week to volunteer at the foodbank again get me some "gains" ------- get me some more "gains" in the gym to. 

  Have a great week!

So many pieces written by fellow bloggers about the decline of christianity.............it's hard to endure unto the end the devil he don't take naps...................1 Peter 5:8 "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:"

So many pieces written by fellow bloggers about the decline of christianity.............it's hard to endure unto the end the devil he don't take naps..................1 Peter 5:8 "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:"

  The devil I don't think he often visits us when we are "sober" and "vigilant" when we ARE ON FIRE FOR JESUS.................

The devil he comes and messes with us, maybe even devours us if he can.................when we have grown lukewarm, when we are NOT ON FIRE FOR THE LORD.......................

He looks at that unlighted match and thinks to himself "ha ha ha ha I am going to have a hayday now"

1 Peter 5:8 "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:"

  "The decline of christianity" just the idea of that...........................ain't no declinin in any of our lives less we give the devil some kind of chance!!!!!!!!!!!! 

  (just the wording "the decline of christianity" as if we are specimens in a petri dish - though I guess we pry are) I don't want to decline, or have any plans to decline. 

Hebrews 10:25 "Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." In my estimation hebrews 10:25 says make even more of a effort to not decline in these last days! I desire to not decline all kinds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All kinds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  DON'T DRAW BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T DECLINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hebrews 10:37-39 "For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul."

  The facts is the people that the bible says will fall away either they weren't sold out for jesus christians in the 1st place, or they left their 1st love (Revelation 2:4) 2 Thessalonians 2:3 "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;"

  For many of us...................we know to listen to the christian music to help us all "walk in the holy spirit" in the day, and/or read our bibles...............to fellowship with one another....................I do believe a great deal of us actually do know how to be "sober and vigiliant" is it always easy - no. Especially maybe in these last days where there is so much to distract us...........................and it's to the point where nearly..............if you don't go to tumblr or you tube your like a "weirdo". Or pinterest. Go to those sites a bit might be ok, some "relax time" is good for everyone. It's risky though, any near friendship with the world............................cause the risk is there to end up loving some the things of the world I find. 

It's far better to love the things God loves!

I love this bit of the bible so much.........................(our old hearts loved the things of this world, I believe our old hearts did have many a idol many a celebrity we put on a pedastle, god wants us all to have new hearts)

Ezekiel 36 

25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

29 I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.

30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.

31 Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.

32 Not for your sakes do I this, saith the Lord God, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel.

33 Thus saith the Lord God; In the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes shall be builded.

34 And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.

35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become fenced, and are inhabited.

36 Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the Lord build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I the Lord have spoken it, and I will do it.

I get excited when I see picks of new tree's in isreal and how nice they are : ) but anybody out there that is a "desolate place" give your life to jesus verse 36 above........."I the Lord build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate:" You to can have a new heart, one that loves the things god loves. You do not have to remain......desolate! JESUS STILL IS IN THE SAVING BUISINESS................even if bloggers are right and christianity is on the """"""decline""""""

Have a great week earth! 

LOVE

Are you serving jesus with zeal? It's not as hard to do as I believe the devil would want us to believe Revelation 3:15 "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot."...................

Udate 10/22/2023 (still battling "Extreme asthma" but not giving up trying to put it into remission).................the latest scarf I knitted................

(painting I did today.........from nother photo my husband took last time we went to the zoo, lion licking his paw chillaxin...............I like this painting so I'm countin it a success : )

Are you serving jesus with zeal? It's not as hard to do as I believe the devil would want us to believe. Deny yourselves take up your crosses and follow jesus DAILY! 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."

 I've noted in revelation 3:15 that it says "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot"

are you cold today or lukewarm

or stoked up with my zeal to deny yourself and take up your cross and follow jesus DAILY
Revelation 3:15-16 "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth."

  I believe absolutely that god is about to one day spew, the lukewarm out of his mouth.......................PEOPLE PROFESSING TO BE CHRISTIANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

  Galatians 6:9 "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." I have at times became not just weary, exceedingly weary in "well doing". It seems often that the more I try to do good, the more I've been hated! 2 Corinthians 12:15 "And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved."

  I do not believe I have "reaped" yet. Worse I am not sure what even "reaping" from "well doing" I'm even supposed to even "reap"??????????????

  The bible says I will indeed reap  Galatians 6:9 "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." Haven't yet, but the bible says I will. 

  The focus for me today more is..............................

stay zealous

stay on fire for jesus

Deny myself take up my cross follow jesus daily

don't be lukewarm (maybe few good deeds here and there, maybe give to a charity on friday or something) 

BE ON FIRE TO LAY DOWN MY LIFE! TO FOLLOW JESUS 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." LOVE THE WORD, JESUS, GOD WILL ALL MY MIND STRENGTH SOUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 How I go about a day MATTERS..............................(I think the small things we do do in a day the devil tries and tell us that "ah that don't matter" IT DOES MATTER.................love someone today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO GOOD TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!! AND TOMMOROW AND THE NEXT DAY ETC. IT DOES MATTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)  

  I need for everyday here on out to not have days where I sit and do nothing.......god surely wants us to be a zealous on fire peculiar people zealous of good works....................Titus 2:14 "Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works."

It is a good to lay down our lives to serve one another...........Galatians 4:18 "But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you."
