Arrows - they can be either good or bad..............which kind of arrows are you shooting?.........................

I'm not ok.......and I believe this statement is more empowering then to pretend everything is ok! 

69% of usa is obese..................

(I'm trying to get good at painting water......pry got a ways to go still, but it's still a nice painting)

Arrows - they can be either good or bad..............which kind of arrows are you shooting?.........................
Someone shot a arrow at me yesterday, a arrow I deem a "good arrow" to nudge me closer to jesus. I've decided there are two kinds of arrows out there, some are bad, some are good, bible mentions how it's good to have.......Psalm 127:4-5 "As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate." You don't have to have lots of kids to have a quiver of arrows, I think we all could have a great deal of arrows whole quivers in our hands plenty of ammo - the good kind aka the word of god : )
  Bad arrows exist to................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." (bad arrows also I think is gossiping, "evil speakings" verse 31 here but I like this whole section so much : )...............Ephesians 4:30-32 "And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."
good arrow activity.............
be ye kind one to another
tenderhearted
forgiving one another
even as god for christ's sake hath forgiven you
exhorting one another Hebrews 3:13 "But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin."
 We need to exhort one another! Be active! Shoot some exhortation good arrows out there!
  We wage a war not against flesh and blood but against pricipalities of darkness etc. we always need to be armed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 Ephesians 6:13-15 "Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;"

   Isaiah 2:4 "And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords intoplowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." Thank god for Isaiah 2:4...........................I feel like I'm in the hunger games somedays for reals! DON'T SHOOT I LOVES EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great week earth!

Don't be afraid to use your talents for god/jesus..............................

Update 5/10/2024........................sweating FOR MY LIFE....................

 (painting I painted tonight of a pot????????)

(reference picture I took at the portland art museum recently)

Use your talents for god/jesus....................everyone has talents this is a fact, and we are all supposed to use our talents,it's in the bible. I told my brother in a e-mail recently that if he so much as said "thank god" while talking about his cars, which I am sure he has..................that that's a use of his "talents". (my brother is a college auto shop professor, who also restores old classic cars)

  Even being a marilyn monroe look alike, there's nothing god can't use ------------- though I haven't completely figured that out yet?????????????? The how's of how god would use that??????????????
   People think of "talent" as singing and art, but it is so much more then that!!!!!!!!!!! Matthew 25:14-16 "For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents."
   It is a talent to take a good photo!!!!!!!! Even if you are the one being photographed, that is a talent a real talent!!!!!!!!!! I would know for every selfie I put up often on my insta there's 10 that aren't making the cut. (many of them are also good, but they aren't making the cut)
  And you might think, well saying thank god that can't do to much, this whole country is christian................this whole country "looks" to be christian.
  Everything counts.............god took a bit of bread and fish, and fed a army!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Matthew 15:36-38 "And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full. And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children."
  I know people some them are afraid to use their talents, it even makes sense, I look at the mainstream preachers for example but even local pastors How often they are critisized given some "flak" of some sort or another.......while using their talents. At my church so many people disparaged the worship team that my pastor preached about it!!!!!!!!! 

 ------- ya my churches worship team that's very hard at work using the talents god gave them!
   Matthew 25:25-29 "And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath."

   That saying is so true --------- if you don't use it you loose it. 

  I wouldn't want any of my blog readers to loose what they have, that's why I'm posting this. And now drum roll hahahahahhahahahahahahah................adding a marilyn monroe esque selfie, I have not much idea how god will use my looking like marilyn monroe, I'm just convinced god's going to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Have a great week!

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

God stuck the mega phone on my hearing tonight! (it's a good thing) Mark 4:24 "And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear:............."

sewed chicken "boxes" today..................as long as "clutter" is in bins and not visible, your house will look good!........................unless the bins are everywhere stacked high or something like that.......................

(I left grapes and golden apples showing - stuff I use for paintings)

Update 4/21/2024 poor poor little mini me from 2017, you were so afflicted. Some fresh selfies.................off to decor for the day..................

 I tell ya all what this is some "special" post, got talking with what I'm guessing is a brother from the apostolic christian church of america in the comments section of this post, and decided to add a video blog. (fast forward to the last bit if you want to "deep" bible part of it)......................

God stuck the mega phone on my hearing tonight! (it's a good thing) Mark 4:24 "And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given." Levi's done got me thinking tonight! Cause he mentioned 16:12 into this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4dUjzTLyRg that if  you put value on something it's going to effect your life.

 What are you hearing out there?

Are you hearing the word of god, or just a bunch of worldly fluff????????

Galatians 6:8 "For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting."

  It is a way to "soweth to the spirit" hearing, or reading the word of god is (speaking in tongues and praying as well). 

What are you sewing to???????

The spirit??????

Or the flesh???????????

 I'm mega stoked tonight to not waist so much of my time on fluff!!!!!!! I think we a lot of us have done it, spent a bit to much time watching movies, watching you tube videos...................."but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting."

  ((((((((((((you can even and I surely have, say to yourself "well everyone else around me this is what they do they watch fluff on the you tube etc. ----------------------- but there is a road a road called the way of life it is narrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Matthew 7:14 "Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."))))))))))))

 Many go on the broad road, the road where they walk in the flesh most of the time........................most are on a "broad road" very few the bible says and I believe the word of god..............".........and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it"

  I believe I have indeed strayed off the narrow path a few times in my life, and am determined to get back on that road. 

   The broad road, the road that the masses are going on Matthew 7:13 "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:" It leads to destruction!!!!!!!!!!!!! It might seem nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Proverbs 14:12 "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."

  Levi is a billion % right in the above video, I gotta take heed to what I hear............................."take heed" meaning make sure that what I'm spending the bulk of my time on is things of the "spirit" good wholesome as biblically sound as I can find buisiness. Most importantly, be in the word of god.....................being hearing that, make that my priority.............the things of the spirit, not the flesh............................the flesh is what this world makes the "priority" 

  Somedays I fall into the "monkey see, monkey do" trap..............monkey see, monkey no do, no do myself no more, just be in god's word lots of that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 (I got a monkey "hear no evil" monkey out of the 50 cent machine at the zoo yesterday :)

Galatians 6:8 "For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting." What we sow to matters

It matters big time!

Have a great week earth!

LOVE

Special memo to any people that's wanting to kill christians: please let me live! I am a monkey often...............foolish things god chooses. 
  I know bible says many christians going to be killed. Have mercy on me please, I have mercy on people, I pray for and love my "enemies" (I put enemies in quotes cause all that really connotes is the people that don't like me, and/or think very little of me......................I would be willing to show mercy to them and be friends with them, they no want to be friends with me) 1 John 3:18 "My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth."
  Once I wasn't merciful, I once was really judgy to..............I became miserable that way completely miserable.........it wasn't worth it, fact if you ain't notice I've stepped down greately on this blog..........I've stepped down in life in general, I only get paid right now for half the work I do at work, I volunteer one day, and get paid for 1 day each week. I've took on the mindset of a servant................I can love better that way. It's worth it for me. Everytime I get proud ------------ I end up somewhere I don't want to be. 
 But all that said..............the people right that will kill some fellow christians (please not me), they see stuffs, not everybody is a "monkey" a fool for jesus name sake - very few are. That don't mean you ain't saved, or couldn't be saved. The bible says who is blind like jesus's servant?????????? Isaiah 42:19 "Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the Lord's servant?"
  I don't believe though this "blindness" is bad at all, in fact I think it is the thing to have...............to have hope for everybody, enough that you can easily pray for the salvation of their souls and love them!
 ps...........to any people that someday want to kill christians some them maybe might be satan worshippers which I respect, I respect that choice, I respect much people that make a choice and stick to that (or as in my case bungle along working hard to stick to my choice that is jesus christ). I am just like 21 pilots, elder of the "apostolic christian church of america" left me suicidal at the end of his "talk" to me............I've been through a "suicide session"......................................if some you all been through a "suicidal session"????? I have to....................I'm of the "suicidal sessionededed".....................

I'm never going to have a mid-life crisis I've decided.......cause the old me is dead and gone..........

Update 3/15/2024 which this is me going out of order, cause I have a "system" - but since how this post is the one where everyone's going to right now. I figured out FINALLY how to do gel nails well. Last night I was sitting there looking at my chip, torn, disaster nails knowing with myself I either 

a. was about to watch many more nail tutorials on you tube and finally figure out how to do gel nails really really right or

b. go to a salon

  So I watch more tutorials, AND I FIGURED IT OUT - I really did. I've had these nails on going on day 2.....................no chips or wear you can see NOTIHNG. I'm fully believing I'm about to need to do a "nail fill" --------- that'll be the 1st time in my life I did a nail fill. I really fully believe in 2 weeks I gonna need to fill my nails. 

  /I used the right ingredients and I used them right! 

  God's word - is the right ingredients!!!!!!!!!!

John 8:31 "Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;"

(ppps I used dehydrator and primer on these nails, the actual salon stuffs - the package promises my nails will last up to 4 weeks...................and I also believe how I applied the gel polish my actual technique will make my nails last 4 weeks pry longer!!!!!!!!!!!! pry longer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)  I'm mega hopeful about this set of nails..............it's a cute orange to 😁

you don't even need to have a "mid life" crisis when you have jesus

you could though have a crisis

but 

you are more then the house you live in

more then the clothing you wear 

more valuable then the clothes you wear or the house you live in I am saying

like know you are valuable

Matthew 10:28-30 "And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered."

despite fellow christians attacking me for years on my blog, to my face, in e-mails, in private texts - they mostly love to attack me or days on end "for jesus" in e-mails and private texts so that nobody see's what they are doing I'M VALUABLE

YOUR VALUABLE!

I'm never going to have a mid-life crisis I've decided.......cause the old me is dead and gone..........

  I've thought about it, having a mid-life crisis, here I am at that "mid-life" point, I could have a mid-life crisis people would let me. But I don't need one. The old me's dead and gone.
  Ya that me took a long time to die..............that me that was obsessing over how many likes photo's got. It don't matter.
 My soul is all that matters
 Luke 9:24-25 "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?"

  It ain't even my soul technically...................

Colossians 1:14-17 "In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist."

 All glory, honour to jesus christ, my respect jesus!

 Few times my flesh has blimped on the radar, recently I cracked and bought over a 100 silver bracelets (I like em cause when I look at the color silver I think of superman.............but all my super powers is from jesus christ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). 

  In this world you will have tribulation we all will....................John 16:33 "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."

 Some you all might "gots it" without jesus, but man I tell you what I'd rather have super woman jesus christ arm bands on my wrist's just pewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww pewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww pewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww any the bullets life throws at me, then trying to block that all alllllllllllllllllllllllllll by myself. 

  are you heavy burdened???????????????

heavy yoked???????????????

Matthew 11:29-30 "Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

I refer as the dead with christ version of myself "ghost sheri"

Ghost sheri wishes you all a great week!

(((((((((((((((I used to care so bad what people thought of me, so baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad, it don't matter how popular or liked you is or isn't out there.............................it's how is your soul doing???????????????????? How's your peace doing??????????)))))))))))

Though I look great for my cough age so that'd might be why I'm skipping a midlife crisis to??????????????? I'm not saying how old I am ---------- I could be 20. No mid-life crisis brewing here : )........................................................but if you have a mid-life crisis uh they are normal!!!!!!!!!! You get all old, you stop like being in the know of all the kids phrases eventually.......there's one my daughter tells me means your in a relationship with someone "ship" and I'm certain "ship" can also mean you like stuffs. Can't you "ship" stuffs????????????? I'm pretty sure you can "ship" stuffs and that the teen kids don't even know the language they clean is making right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I'm 100% ship means you like something a whole lot ------------ if you like something only a little bit then you don't ship it you just like it in that event)

Do you want your "darkness to be as the noon day" FEED THE HUNGRY IT WORKS GOD'S WORD IS TRUE! Isaiah 58:10......................

Do you want your "darkness to be as the noon day" FEED THE HUNGRY IT WORKS GOD'S WORD IS TRUE! Isaiah 58:10.
  Yesterday one my facebook friends got me thinking a slew. They said that most christian leaders, are fake in real life, and that they talk about "love" but that they are all bsing it (not word for word but close to, is what one my facebook friends said).
   I got to thinking ok, she just "pointed the finger" ---------- but what did that accomplish???????????
Isaiah 58:9 "Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity;"

  To warn the earth that the "apostolic christian church of america" has "commandments of men" that is needed, cause I didn't know what commandments of men were and other people might not as well. I'm pry done e-mailing all the apostolic christian church of america, cause at some point, if they ain't listening to you............what did the bible say...................it didn't say keep pestering them it said Matthew 10:14 "And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet."

  Shake the dust off of your feet, don't keep pestering them...............move forward to the people that WILL HEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  So I estimate entirelly that all pointing of the finger is useless. It doesn't do much, never saves a soul really. I had to stop and think about that yesterday, cause many people around me ARE ACTIVELY POINTING ALL KINDS OF FINGERS ALL OVER THE PLACE (a lot of people in my life are especially pointing many fingers at donald trump I AIN'T...............the guy has a hard job). 

  There have been days in my past where I have went and gossiped much and pointed the finger much............and not even thought about it.......................because that is what I saw everyone around me doing and it was "ok" for them (somewhere in my mind those were my thoughts). And I think many of us have fallen in this very trap, probably even said facebook friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

  But what does the bible say, says stop sheri, stop --------- insert name here -------------, don't do that don't point your finger.........................
Isaiah 58:9-10 "Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noon day:"

  I need to feed the hungry to, much more then I have, step the efforts up much more.............it's hard I know reading Isaiah 58:10 and really believing that.......................that if you just feed the hungry "then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noon day"

  But it is the word of god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to work much harder to be much more diligient at feeding the hungry, and in general caring about them. Cause I for sure could use for a lot more of my light to "rise in obscurity" and my darkness be as noon day! THAT I NO MORE BE "POINTING OF THE FINGER" 

NO MORE GOSSIPING

OR BACKBITING

OR NONE THAT TOXIC BAD STUFFS I SEE GOING ON ALL AROUND ME PRETTY WELL DAILY!

(It's like a disease that has infested everyone around me, somedays it appears to be, but I don't have to catch that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can care for the hungry!!!!!!!!!!! Get doing that more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
"moving on up, to the east side, to a delux apartment in the sky" - amen..............

Why I view church discipline as a bad idea..........with bible backing me up................

Update 4/2/2024 I like bought some memory wire while at a antique store at the coast and so today I made a memory wire bracelet - pictured below 😁

I believe in um "life more abudnatly" that Jesus came to bring me

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."

(my latest painting is yet another bob ross piece called "Seaside Harmony" Season 30, Episode 10)

This is a e-mail I wrote this morning to elder and his wife (of the church that I went to for a long time) and my great aunt, all of the apostolic christian church of america. (slightly edited for this blog, but not much I ain't editing much at all)
At my current church they say they "love people in" ------------- that's the christian way right there
you could tell me but sheri we are a rigid commandment of men heeding church what about consequences for actions..............
God should be your daddy my daddy everybodies daddy ok..........he able to deal with any kids not behaving.
It is your jobs to swat your kids butts if they misbehave.............and that's as far as things go.
If you read your bible good................it says swat your kids butts if they misbehave (your actual biological kids).
and then leave the rest to god
leave the rest to god it's in the bible
I can read real well was a english minor in college
closest the bible says and this even doesn't say anything about kicking people out of a church or none of that so you ain't all biblical............
Hebrews 12:15-17 "Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears."
 Look diligently at something to prevent anything bad happening with any of your church members, and that's it.
previous verses.............Hebrews 12:12-14 "Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:"
am I following peace with you all - yep
is you with me - debatable. Holiness, you'd have to e-mail me to be following holiness with me I'd recogn you alls missing that verse 14 there.
but that's besides the point,
the point is....................church discipline is not biblical
bible says
hey you all do this this this and this
and then there won't be no fornicator among you, or profane person

church discipline ------------ is a church trying to get in the way of god
God's saying hey kids I'm god I'm daddy I gots this!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hebrews 12:14 "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:"

...................who knows if the apostolic christian church will get rid of their "church discipline" they don't much listen to me it don't look like. 

 I'd listen to me, I back myself up with the bible mega well. Their church has "commandments of men" there's no way ordering people to not wear bangs, or beards, or wedding rings................no way that ain't commandments of men.................................that's men in your church commanding your church to stay away from various things which is what "commandments of men" is!

God's my daddy, and it's good to fear dad some.........not my church though (if they had church discipline which I don't believe my current church does, which is great churches shouldn't have "church discipline" - but rather trust god to do his job). God I believe should be the one feared. 

Have a great week earth!

I've decided job was allowed to be tested, because he was battling pride (I found the bible verse)...............

Update 4/1/2024 don't worry mini me from 2017 you'll be so hated, sooooooooooo hated, so attacked over the years and HATED. You won't battle pride, nope you'll just sit and stress out about when the next time someone is going to try and cause you to suicide yourself "for Jesus" it's going to be aweful. This isn't really a "light affliction" either so you might actually be lucifers (you know hell bound) don't worry don't worry all you can do is what anybody can do try your best to live for God/Jesus THAT'S ALL YOU CAN DO IS LOVE PEOPLE BE IN THE WORD OF GOD EVERYDAY TRY YOUR BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!

2 Corinthians 4:17

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

THOUGH MINI ME YOU SEEM TO BE LITERALLY "HELL BOUND" (people trying to get me to suicide myself and hating me this badly because I love satan, isn't "light affliction" nope I think the affliction I've gone through is INTENSE)

FRESH ART IS PRY HAPPENING FOR THIS BLOG POST LATER TODAY..................TIL THEN LOOK AT THESE NOT SO GREAT PAINTED ROCKS........................

(bunch of really artsy tree rocks I painted --- my town has a group of artist/people that paint rocks and hide them around town.............good break from more serious paintings)

I've decided job was allowed to be tested, because he was battling pride (I found the bible verse) Job chapter 31 jobs just going off talking about how awesome he is Job 31:37 "I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him." Right there he's saying he's pretty well a prince.............I love job though (he was so convinced of his awesomeness..........I can relate I've been there!!!!!!!!!!!). He is how we all are, pride can happen easy to us, whether the "pride of life" or what job is suffering from here "spiritual pride".
  I used to not like this Elihu guy that rose up against job, but now I see this is good Job 35:1-2 "Elihu spake moreover, and said, Thinkest thou this to be right, that thou saidst, My righteousness is more than God's?"
love these verses........(I recogn verse 9 below is actually what happened to job.........that all the bad that happened to him was for a reason!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like a god loving Him reason, god I believe wasn't allowing satan to try Job for just "funsies")

Job 36

7 He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.

8 And if they be bound in fetters, and be holden in cords of affliction;

9 Then he sheweth them their work, and their transgressions that they have exceeded.

10 He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.

11 If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.

12 But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.

I once thought Job was perfect, I once thought well crude what's god allowing satan to try Job for???????? But god knows what we each need!!!!!!!!!!!!!

   I am currently not experiencing any "spiritual pride" rather mindful at the moment that in me Romans 7:18 "For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwellethno good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not." But there have been moments in my past where I thought I was the whole mack of the earth, praying some BIG TIME pretty pretty prayers to god (my prayers are rather sad in my estimation lately.............lacking gusto : ( I mean smiley face : ) 

  Paul said, he'd rather glory in his infirmities...................fab thing about that is it is a place of humility 2 Corinthians 12:9 "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

I AM INFIRMITIED!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is how infirmidied I am in my mind, I'm 100% about this..............

 I listen to iggy azalea, I listen to mike will made it, somewhere inside me at times..............the beetlejuice movie brothel is open for buisiness.
  I don't want to get in that "spiritual pride" zone, I can read what all happened to job and learn, snap don't do that!
  But I know I know I need to read my bible, I already have today, and will pry read it again today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  And I almost deleted some blog post that are eh..................I've decided I don't want my blog to be to fabulous..........naw that's to close to the "spiritual pride zone"

 pride is terrible all of it

spiritual pride

worldly pride

 Thing is like if you got successful in this world --------- but lost your soul..........what did you gain then??????????????????????????? Mark 8:36 "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" It's pry not fab to like all be like mediocre.......but like I recogn it might not actually like be fab, to like be fab!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..............think about that.
