TWINZZ! TODAY, FEBRUARY 16, YOU ARE SIXTEEN! You probably know this! (SMILE!) In honor of you, Chanelle, this “JOY STORY’ is dedicated… Before I get to the main point of my story, TWINZZ, I first have the pleasure of telling you something about Chanelle. She is my firstborn granddaughter – and loves me very much, as I do her, of course. Chanelle has some of the most amazing blue eyes: those she gets from her mother. Truly, they are the…..
I REFUSE TO BE UGLY… I CHOOSE THIS AS ONE OF MY THEMES IN LIFE and strive to impress this theme on my entire household… I refuse to be ugly! You should too! Ugliness is not just in physical appearance – presenting a hateful frown. It is choosing to be that ungodly, fully selfish person – or having an “I’m better than you!” attitude… It is ugly to be unpleasant! It is ugly to be disgusting to God and man!…..
FOOTBALL SEASON IS SOON UPON US and I don’t like football! But hey! I’m a free moral agent and I don’t have to! Just ask some of the players if they like to knit, wear makeup, write books, play the violin, camp or have a Ladies’ Day Out… some might, some might not. We all are different; thank God! He loves variety and so should we! Our Creator is the Great Artist! Just look at the different colours of people;…..
I ALWAYS LOVE THIS TITLE! A PUPPY TALE… I have another, totally different puppy tale story in my first volume of “Joy Stories.” You should read it, it’s really good! I would never write anything that I didn’t believe in. Amen! Christians are no hypocrites: we know our need for Jesus as our Lord and Savior; we know we needed to repent and strive to sin no more. We know we are blessed by being washed in the blood of…..
JESUS IS YOUR TROUBLEBREAKER: an ever present help in your time of need! FOR A WHILE, I LET AN ACQUAINTANCE of mine say to me frequently: “Hi, Trouble!” Then I got to thinking (a very good thing, but only as I think and meditate with the mind of Christ) that I do not cause trouble. I imitate Christ. As the Apostle Paul tells me to imitate him, just as he also imitates Christ, I want to and strive to…..
NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS GOD’S PEOPLE make begin with a good idea, a sincere heart and the plan to meet their goal. Today is almost the last day of January and as January is pretty much gone, so too are many of the New Year’s resolutions a thing of the past of many who seemingly were so very determined to fulfill them. Selah All people (including sinners) know they have ‘missed it’ whether it be a New Year’s resolution of taking…..
THAT YOU WILL FIND ME FAITHFUL. I offer Truth – Jesus Christ, the only Way, Truth and Life. I offer you the full counsel of the Bible; written by God, not man: And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe. 1 Thessalonians 2:13 I offer…..
YOUR FINAL DESTINY IT’S UP TO YOU… MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY! AND MY GOD WILL supply for the Church – when they are in faith. That’s why you will find Christians sick, broke, dying too young. But first of all – I want to lay out the way to become a child of God, for satan has lied to some of the deceived, who actually think they believe: “Everyone goes to Heaven! Why… a loving God would never…..
WHAT ABOUT 9-11? UNDOUBTEDLY THERE IS TURMOIL in the world… BUT: … God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. 1 Corinthians 14:33 Beloved: we speak of peace in the Church. Christ is the head, the Christians are the body – the Church: not those who say they are Christians – but those who say and do. The book of James tells us explicitly: If a brother…..
A CERTAIN HOPE! IT IS SO BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL TO KNOW that I have a sibling in Heaven! I will tell you all about her (all that I know, that is) shortly. More important to some of you right now is this Truth: all you who have had an unborn child die unexpectedly; if you have chosen abortion; or any other sad situation – I want you to have peace in the circumstance of that baby’s or child’s early death……
