I took note one day that without love a person isn't "useful" Matthew 5:13 "Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men."...........

Update 2/15/2024 peloton biked yesterday 😁 NO ASTHMA AT ALL, and NO ARTHRITIS lately. I attribute all this success to probably peloton biking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..................peloton biking could change YOUR LIFE.............

this is my hair unduffused ---------- I juuuust started wearing my natural curly hair all "natural" again. Last night I put a fair amount of coconut oil in my hair...............so today the coils should be even tighter, and today I AM DIFFUSING MY HAIR, and likely adding gel to my hair as well do the full out whole thing to my hair. So it's going to get even bigger then this 😀

poor me in 2016

least you hadn't given up on life 2016 me.........................

I took note one day that without love a person isn't "useful" Matthew 5:13 "Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men."
  My e-mails now for the elder of the apostolic christian church of america and his wife, and my aunt seem to be reaching them again, and I was instructed to love them. To not give up.
  The bible does say Galatians 6:9 "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." It is a means of "well doing" to love the apostolic christian church of americians is it not??????????????????????? Not all "well doing" is literally like you know going and helping wash a friends car on the weekends etc. that type of "well doing" is great to very good, but so is a simple e-mail or a letter.
   Anyways I took good note of how if you have lost salt "love" you are then "it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men" imagine that?????????
  This is me on this topic even though it'll seem like I'm getting off of it, cause I ain't always good at "segways"...........
2 Timothy 3:1-3 "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good," I've been thinking a lot about well how is this time "perilous"

are people dieing physically is that the peril?????

or is the "peril" the bible talking about within??????

I've decided 2 Timothy 3:1-3 is talking about a peril that could happen within. Because if everyone or most people around you truelly are ".............lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good," it is a peril, it gets harder to love does is not???????????????????

  You'd be real tempted to think "well why should I love all of these ".lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,"????????????????????

 I was given the answer.............because people can change, because there is hope for people out there even in the worstest of times. 

  And besides that it is just good to love everyone, it's good inside your soul, 

even the idea of not loving everyone is real peril!

Luke 6:45 "A good man out of the good treasure of his heartbringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh." I want good things coming from my mouth just mostly good things (well ok we all have bad days, and I think we should definately be "longsuffering in love" with one another) I don't want to be trampled under the foot of men one day I WANT TO BE USEFUL!

Matthew 5:13 "Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men."

  That's it that's all that's on my heart right now. 

Have a great week!

LOVE

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

I am NOT the victim, I am the victor!!!!!!!!!!!! Romans 8:37 "Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us."

 Update 12/3/2023 today for the 1st time a "gold leafed" something (fake gold not real, but fake gold leaf I think is still plenty pretty). I used I think 20 sheets of fake gold leaf to get this look (I might off counted off by 1 or 2)............I could've covered it all the way, but at this point I felt it be's looking good 😁............

I am sorta pondering fake gold leafing 1 wall to............I might do that. ps............when I was done gold leafing I let the modge podge dry, then I sprayed this whole piece with clear coat - that's how I fake gold leaf : ) 

(and am right now listening to goth music via my schumann resonance machine that came in the mail today............it definately works the sound quality is really good now 😁) I'm feeling chill and great right now 😁 Thankful I am a total nerd 😁

I am against this "it's all your fault" mentality out there, if your following jesus the bible says for one - you'll be hated by all men for jesus's name sake so surely bad things are going to happen to you that aren't "all your fault" Matthew 10:22 "And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved."
 I am NOT the victim, I am the victor!!!!!!!!!!!! Romans 8:37 "Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us."

Are you the victim today?

Or are you the victor in christ jesus?????

The devil wants you to be a victim, I believe, I believe he wants you feeling sorry for yourself..............anything but praising the lord!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Nehemiah 8:10 "Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the Lord is your strength."

  Paul went through horrible stuffs, and he didn't quit, 

he didn't give up

he didn't go mop in a corner "woe's me"

  I haven't even went through this list in my own life.........................

2 Corinthians 11

21 I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.

22 Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.

23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.

24 Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.

25 Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;

26 In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

27 In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

28 Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.

-------------------- me sheri this blog post verse 23 "in deaths oft" man I relate to that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Verse 27 really stands out to me at the moment..................."in fastings often" he surely wasn't just sitting around just letting all that happen to him, he was hard at work fasting and praying. (I do a partial fast 2 meals fruit smoothies w/1 scoop slim fast in the shake...........then real dinner..........................I couldn't actually go days not eating...................I fast weeny american style But that's still fasting! I looked into what counts as a fast, and a fast I learned isn't just about the food you eat in fact it has pry 0 to do with the food you are eating or not eating more to do with your heart....

cut out the tv for days

cut out the you tube for days

"fast" from those things

Go to what can really help me and you, which is not the world - but god/jesus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Psalm 121:2 "My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth." I need to get back to fasting direly. 

I donated money to help the Jews in Israel and bless them today..................
