Life going nowhere? Depressed? Suicidal? God wants good things for you Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." The world can get a person depressed, suicidal, etc. it sure can.......................

Update 8/14/2024 played a fun video game last night, died a few times to.............some of us our lives are like this video game, we die, and then we die, and then we die (like not really die - eventually for some of us - but like careers end, and they end, friendships end etc. etc.) Always a new level to the "game" (if only that "new level" is you and me changing the way we think about things and/or people).............

Life going nowhere? Depressed? Suicidal? God wants good things for you Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." The world can get a person depressed, suicidal, etc. it sure can. I'm in a "mood" lately been listening to this morning this song I include the lyrics.............

sheri 2024 is just leaving this what was a video here, this happens to often I'm tired of it...........

Mad World
Gary Jules, Michael Andrews

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world
Children waiting for the day, they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher, tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world
Enlarge your world
Mad world

Now the bible verse above is directed at Jews, but if you are grafted it it's for you as well and all people God ultimately wishes good for because.........2 Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."

   I find the song above to be super pertinent, ya people age, and fine. But the idea, that people are going around in circles out there. And some, are even going "around in circles" while having 15,000-20,000 or more followers on instagram. Ya they might get "gigs" ------- but really 

really

they just going around in circles

 Now we all are in what I call "the wheel" - all of us. Celebrities, non-celebrities, all of us are in "the wheel" and that does keep spinning. 

  I do not believe god wants us super tired, worn out, beaten down (like all the time I'm tryin to say, we all get super tired sometimes I think.......maybe say renovating a house that's tiring for instance). 2 Corinthians 4:16 "For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day."

  Usually people think of thirst they think of water. We get water, and drink that to feel refreshed. The word of God I also believe is very refreshing! Luke 4:4 "And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." 

  That's all I have to say for today, the basic gist. I've been myself many a time tempted to chase after the things the world chases after. But the word of god says 

Be not conformed to this world

meaning don't chase after the things this world is chasing after

but be transformed by the renewing of your mind!

Romans 12:2 "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

  Most in this world are truelly running in circles going nowhere........it's sad, but it's the case. Bible says Matthew 6:33 "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Truth - I never needed 1000's and 1000's of instagram followers or you tube subscribers etc. and neither do you!

But I mean if you is a celebrity or with the 1000's and 1000's of followers etc. 

God/Jesus the word of God is where it's at for all us I believe! - Water will only refresh so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But the word of god....................

John 4:12-14 "Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle? Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."

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

My favorite bible verse..........Matthew 5:6 "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled."

Update 1/24/2023 my chihuahua had to be "put down" last night, my husband came into our bedroom at 2:30 am asked me to watch our dog that has currently a broken leg that is in a cast..........so he could take our other dog to be put down. Our other dog was much dyeing, heaving to breath...........ruff week. 

(sheri 2023 is making friendship bracelet above, I also made recently 2 matching friendship bracelets for my youngest daughter and her best friend 😊 ---------- I like the simple stripe style of bracelet super thick ............the yellow string isn't yellow either though it is photoing that way it is neon yellow green 😁👍 ------- there is a story behind my love of friendship bracelets if anyone cares?????????? In Junior High, I found a bracelet, something like the one above, striped super thick.................I weared it all the time....................kids were complimenting me on it all the time -------- well then the girl that made it came up to me said "that's my bracelet" --------- and thing is...........

this bracelet was different much different then all her other bracelets

and I was like "really"???????????

and then I was like well I found it what about "finders keepers" 

and she almost said I could have it

then she changed her mind

and said she'd make a different bracelet for me if I gave her that one back

my friend near me said "give it back sheri you'll pry get a nice bracelet" 

she gave me back a crochet strand style bracelet the most basic of bracelets it was sad and pathetic

and this girl mind you

was making bracelets for her friends super nice

and my stomach dropped and I looked at this sad bracelet

and thought to myself "this is all I am worth in this girls mind"

since then I've rather regularly made the nicer style friendship bracelets to remind myself to myself that I have value

while living in a world

that seems to value men more then women

and tries to tell me I ain't valuable

I try and make the good style of friendship bracelets often 

and tell myself 

I am valuable

(this blog post was written when I thought the apostolic christian church of america loved me, and before the main elder of that church told me I was the worst human ever even post the point I was on the floor crying cause I took a stand again this churches commandments of men which they have either since gotten rid of or eased up on????? aka - no wedding rings, no makeup, no jewelry, hair must be in a bun, skirts only ----------- that of stuffs bossing women around basically from my viewpoint and demeaning them and making them feel like mega broken garbage from my viewpoint - men only "commandment of men" of that church that they had that was aimed at men no wedding rings and no beards THE REST WAS AIMED AT WOMEN) 

My favorite bible verse...............Matthew 5:6 "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Somedays I get in a bad mindframe I get thinking "but I don't have much fellowship..............................." If god gives me lots and lots and lots of fellowship someday that will be awesome. But what I need right now is that thirst for righteousness......................Matthew 5:6 "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled."

  I thank god for that fact/verse, that all I need is to thirst for that...................as I've been doing listening to a apostolic christian church of america sermon everyday at http://www.acsermonstreamer.com/

   I'm not at the epic disadvantage I sometimes get to thinking I am. Can I thirst for gods word??????????? Go get a drink of that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How often do we all thirst for a glass of water?????????? Probably often enough, and I will fully admit - a tall cold glass of water is pretty nice...............BUT EVEN BETTER IS THE WORD OF GOD. John 4:14 "But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."

 Hope everyone's week is going good!

LOVE
