Getting sick was not on my list of things to do today.

Not that I have a list. But if I did, guess what wouldn't be on it?

....getting eaten by a dinosaur.
And getting sick.

Maybe, say thank you if you get it or don't, and at the same time tell it you do not have time for it and move on? Just a thought, you know, for God tells you truth over error, we as people just don't always listen or understand why, if we do get sick and never have the time for it. I know I did not like what I went through, yet today bottom line it is for God's glory. So learned and learning, what can I learn from any graven situation, whether get sick or it bypasses me?
praying for you to rise above this and just do not have time to entertain it in thought that becomes deed and be sicker, by the thoughts of I am sick or going to get sick

Which is usually waht gets one sick or sicker if already sick, thoughts Sister are that powerful

Talking to my mom is both awesome and seriously irritating. I spent nearly an hour on the phone with her this evening, mostly talking about the progress I've made on getting that group started (which I've done a whole lot of nothing with today...). That topic lead into the list of things I'll need before I can go much further with this, which somehow lead into her offering to let me and my kids move into my brother's house.

...

A few short days ago, she was saying that she and my step-dad were wanting to buy a house for me to live in, which I said was kind of absurd, because I already have a roof over my head. Now, my grandparents are selling their house, and my brother and his wife are buying it, and the house they live in now belongs to my parents so they all think moving me in there would be a great idea.

I said I'd think about it.

And then my mom mentioned that there's a woman she works with that she wants to put me in touch with- a single mom of 5 or 6 kids who heard a little about my idea and wants to help. So, that's pretty awesome. My mom said she'd get me the woman's number so we could meet sometime, but for some reason she felt compelled to add, "And she's um, she's a pretty BIG girl, I just wanted you to know so you weren't surprised by it or anything...".

*facepalm*

But! Aside from minor ridiculosity, things are working out really well. Yaaay....and stuff...!

Amen Sister Mom is willing and so are you to built you alls relationship in love and truth. So ask and state you are elated over this offer, and say Mom, no strings attached, and how much for I do want to pay the way, even though it is through assistance. ?That is what it is therefor, and is a part of our taxes, so in essence we all by love are for you.
To be out of that apartment is great and safe for you and the Kids

if i think correctly in this, who made this disabled person, and since it is God, is this person truly disabled?
Something to think upon, that we the normal people might really be the disabled ones in need of?
I just remember a time, when a pastors wife had a deformed child and the nurse got on the phone and was making mockery of it.
I thought who is the disabled one?

The nurse. No doubt about it. How insensitive!

No one should mock anyone, that's wrong. I think this woman will act out like a child in anger, or an immature adult. :)

I don't know what my problem is lately, but every time I have to talk to my step-dad on the phone, I end up snapping at him.

I mean, yeah, he's purposely difficult...it's like the Inquisition every time I call there and he answers:
"So have you done anything useful today?"
"Why not?"
"Are you going to get your kids vaccinated?"
"Why would you do that?"
"Are you ever going to make something of yourself?"

...I used to be able to ignore it. Now I play right into it and let him get to me. He thinks it's funny. I think he needs a swift kick in the butt. My mom thinks he's just crazy.

Today's questions all centered around my lack of skills needed to start the single parents' group.

I hunted down my copy of 'She's Come Undone'. I haven't read it in a few years. I forgot how unsettling it is...just the way this guy writes...disturbing and fascinating.

I would love for people who say things like that to look in a mirror. I also know they have no grasp on what marriage is and unconditional love.

I personally want to say, how many of you, includes me would stick around if their better half got put in the Hospital, was not expected to live, spent every dime you had, max out all your credit to live here in this world and have nothing no future to see to live by. No credit, No nothing, but you left
How many would ride that out all the way and not leave, especially if you are not legally married, and you have had fights, that no one likes?

My Wife stayed, and I am elated beyond the crying of what I went through, oh poor me.
She stayed, now that is the perfect example of God, no insurance, no money no assets. Wow to me, Does anyone think that God is not real? and she is not God, just the perfect example of God does not ever leave or forsake us.
God does just l;oves us all you all and not all show this, yet there are those that do know the unconditional love of God, and can and do stand for truth and never ever be a doormat. She definitely is not submissive, but only to God.
This amazing seeing the difference of mankind's women must submit to man is _________________________.
For man is to love the woman in compassion as she loved me in this, you think
I think and know this now above all else ever
thank you and please give God the praise for her to listen and do as led by God. praying for me to do the same and all listening.
Can we give up all this world and what it offers? And not know where you will go or how you will get through it?
Something to maybe think about, I know I did and do and by God have made it through, with all this in my face, as to how will I pay over 400,000.00 dollars in debt. How will I live and God comes through, and will on all in God's timing for all, the stress and worry over what is will not change the facts will they? Never did any of what has happened on purpose.
So what will worry do? will it make it better or worse?
Matthew 6:27
Will all your worries add a single moment to your life?In Context | Full Chapter | Other Translations

I learned this, they take away, steal, kill and destroy

So I know you do believe god and will stand in the midst of all adversity, knowing God does have your best interest at heart

Starting the day trying not to drink coffee and listening to 'Let it Go' in 4 different languages....

This is no way to live.
Click to expand...
you know, I have heard to hang on and not let go and let go, which is what it seems we as people do and not do right?

Had a dream, in it I heard this voice it said to go over to this cliff and look over it. So I did and looked over it, and saw no bottom, it appeared bottomless.
And so I said okay, safe where I am at and asked so now what?
I heard "Jump", I said what? Heard it again "Jump" I replied no way, why would I "Jump" I will not live, nor do I see a landing, I could fall forever.
I heard are you not already falling forever, in your do's and don'ts?
I said what, what is that supposed to mean? Heard are you content in all things that come at you whether for you or against you?
I said why no, is anyone?
I heard those that jump, so Jump?
I said again if I jump then I would be left to uncontrollable circumstances and fall and fall and fall, I think I am doing pretty well with going to Church, loving my neighbor as myself, I get mad, yeah but it is not my fault, for how that other one acted at me or to that other I saw do what they did, they deserved my wrath

Then I heard really, so you would deserve my wrath then as well right? I said who are you? I am doing the best I can and you say to me "Jump" are you nuts?
Then I heard "I AM". Jump go ahead or do you not really trust me? I said ofcoarse I trust God, and it seems. well I am not sure, that you are God? or that truthfully if God is real as I have never seen God?

Then i heard Abraham Jumped and gave up all he had and I (God) caught him in my hand and led him the rest of his life on earth and now in heaven forever, by his complete trust he is saved and did as i asked in trust

"JUMP"

So I did and have not regretted it all in all since, yet at times doubt tried to get in the way, especially through adversities that have come my way to steal, kill and destroy, and i revert back to trust that God thankfully has got me and all that believe in the palm of his hand and will never let us Go

Yet we can check out anytime we want, but truthfully never leave, for God is Faithful to chase us down and find us to carry us home safely
That is who and what is true love beyond measure to all of us, whew I said a mouthful

Here it is in Rock n roll, Jesus is the rock that doesn't roll away, and turn the words of Hotel California into "Hotel God"

and see this love and mercy beyond self control. and quite possibly give up on self control, and just simply trust God all in all and be content all in all, and thus confident in all you do, as led by God to do. And if you find out it was not God that you checked out from God's hotel, guess what God will find you and you will learn to trust deeper and deeper and deeper

There are deep meaning words when one gives all to God and listens closely without judgement

Maybe let them, when others get no rise out of you, quit.
And this quitting to get this rise out of you depends on how long it has been going on, that you let it

I remember a time when these things got to me, and saw that when I responded showing them they got to me, they were encouraged to continue on, and so I stopped, ducked, rolled and move away from the ignited fire, safe in the palm of God who knows the truth in you, and do not need to show anyone else you are accepted in the beloved, this is you you Sister you are accepted in the beloved and all that do believe, we as people just do not always remember this truth, we are accepted period. That does not change from God's view ever thank you Jesus

Now back to the regualrly scheduled program, flesh fighting the Spirit of Love, God. going over to the (Flesh), oh i mean the forum, and you all know not kidding having to kill my flesh daily in Spirit and truth, cauise i do get the same you said and why aren't you? you know you are suppose to?
And I say things like did God die and put you in charge samrtallec like to my close ones who take no offense?
Note: walk by flesh and it is always offended someway somehow you think? All I got to do is look in the mirror

So does that show us as well as we can be the same as when Nathan told David about that man that killed to get what he wanted and David responded with we have to get that and make him pay
Then Nathan said the man I speak of is you

2 Samuel 11 I am accountable for my response and actions from, no one else is, you think Brother?

I agree, my parents had friends that have a son with downs syndrome. When my parents would go visit and take me I'd love hanging out with him. He was about 10 years older than me but he and I had so much fun together. He was a special sweet person. My friend who I grew up with has an older sister with Downs, I still see her from time to time, she would always sit outside and talk to us on the way home from school, if kids made fun of her, we'd throw rocks at them, pebbles, OK now I know that's wrong, but she never really cared about people teasing. She's this sweet spirit who loves cows and her little brother and life.
