HCR - I will pray - God will use your Life found in Him to plant seed and will use your character found in Him to even harvest the fruit of Himself as He affords opportunity and draws them to Himself.
You are going thru a tough transition in this immediate moment, and it is good to seek encouragement in fellowship and in Him as well as to put on the belt of truth. But remember the reality is God is there and in charge.
"Peace I leave you, My peace I give to you ... " (John 14:27). That is not me saying that - it is Jesus your God saying that!
He creates peace, because the words that He speaks are always "spirit, and they are life" (John 6:63). Have you ever received what Jesus speaks? " ... My Peace I give to you ... " - a Peace that comes from looking into His face and fully understanding and receiving His quiet contentment.
Are you afraid and confused by the waves and the turbulence God is sovereignly allowing to enter your life? Have you left no stone of your faith unturned, yet still not found any well of peace, joy, or comfort? Does your life seem completely barren to you? Then look up and receive the quiet contentment of the Lord Jesus. Reflecting His peace is proof you are right with God, because you are exhibiting the freedom to turn your mind to Him. As I have told Anointed recently - if you are not right with God, you can never turn your mind anywhere but on yourself. Allowing anything to hide the face of Jesus Christ from you either causes you to become troubled or gives you a false sense of security.
I see that this transition and circumstance into new parenthood can easily make one feel it is disconcerting and sad right now, but are you "looking unto Jesus" (Hebrews 12:2) and receiving peace from Him? If so, He will be a gracious blessing of peace exhibited in and thru you. But if you only try to worry your way out of the problem, you destroy His effectiveness in you,. It is then we then deserve whatever we get. We become troubled because we have not been taking Him into account. When a person confers with Jesus Christ, the confusion stops, because there is no confusion in Him. Lay everything out before Him and when you are faced with difficulty, listen to Him say, "Let not your heart be troubled...." It is nice to meet you - May God help build you up in Him in this time of transition.

If I like both teams, now that my team is not there, am I a Bellandiumist - even perhaps a Bellandiumust? And if I wore a shirt with that written on its front would anyone get it? In fact, does anyone even get the diffenence in my spelling the word now?
- Yeah probably not on both fronts in this case, but hey, I thought I would venture a pit-stop to the intensity of FIFA and its heart wrenching tugs. Go Bellandium! GO!! .... All I know is Jesus is Lord of them all! LOL ...Ok, that may not be all I know, but it is all I care deeply about at this juncture of the competition...LOL-

How is everyone? Haven’t been on in awhile lol.
So funny thing happened last night. Well not really funny. So anyway, Around 4:30pm I got a txt from my sister that our two dogs got outta the gate. Now these two dogs are quite, let’s say “selective hearing” in who they listen to lol my sister tried driving everywhere to find them. Still no luck. I got home like two hours, and still hadn’t been found. I rang my other sister and she picked me up and we went to try and find them.
I was praying and encouraged my sisters to pray as well.
As my sister was about to give up, we get a call from the dog pound that a kind samaritan found them and handed them in.
Praise God!
So we went to pick them up and by then it was 7pm, cold and raining a little. The dogs were crying when we got there and were absolutely happy to see us
Anyway, this reminded me how much God loves us, but also His creatures that He created. And also that He sends people and uses them to help answer our prayers in times of need and distress. This kind samaritan was used as part of Gods plan to bring our boys home.
I thought I’d share this with you all I miss you all and pray that God continues to send those people (and even Angels in disguise) to help rescue you in times of trouble.
Cos das how God rolls 😎😉🙏🏽😊❤️

I am not mad Lil' Sis - and it wasn't even about you - just "anything" is however subject to God's review. I love sports of all kinds - especially College football (American football) and Basketball. But if either of those became an idol of worship, I would need to review it - as it is now, they are not - so its good in the hood in that department. I trust you also have Jesus in first place as well - right? Right!!
- enjoy the game - I would but I have another issue called laundry to contend with today - oh those character building circumstances I face!!! LOL ...-
