1) Jesus and the Children 2)Woe to the Willful Rejecters!

Hello friends! I hope everyone is having a great day so far. I pray that you will be safe, happy and blessed in all you do. Today’s focus is on Jesus and the children. I have seen people who think Jesus was saying that all children would go to Heaven.  I don’t really have an...

God’s Movie: The Beginning, Our Role, and The End.

I see a lot of people who believe in pre-destination, and who think that every decision we make in life, every path we take, is automatically directed by God. I think it CAN be, but we have to ask Him to reveal His purpose for us. We have to ask for His guidance in decision...

Turning God’s House into a Den of Thieves, or, Using Religion as A Safety Net

Jesus cleared the temple and called them all thieves. Why? They were selling, not stealing, right!?! Wrong. They were stealing the glory from the house of God. They were turning it into a marketplace, making money, and taking away from the true meaning of the faith. What in life nowadays is representative of this? How...

How Can You Love a God Who…..

One of the biggest questions/objections to belief in God: “How can you love and obey a God who threatens to punish and send you to hell if you don’t behave, and lets people die for no reason?”  Here is how I answer that, in a conversation format. Me: Do you love your parents? Joe Skeptical:...

21 Feb 2021 – My OT Class and a Poem

A few people have asked exactly what I am studying in my current OT class, and wanted to know a few details, so I decided to write about it where I can give a more detailed explanation than I could through a text message. Last night I spent the majority of my time studying in...

The Day I Became a Murderer

Yes, the title is shocking, but it is true. Last year, I took a precious life. I have suffered for it every day since, until the day I wrote this blog. That day, I realized that my experience was intended by God for 2 reasons: 1) to show me how we can hurt others with...

Opinion Piece: Modern vs Biblical Feminism

DISCLAIMER: This might ruffle some feathers. That's okay. It started as a joke between my husband and I. It made for a good funny but then I got to thinking about it and was inspired to write this blog. So, I will tell you 2 of the stories behind this. Bedtime conversations: Hubby was getting...

Hope for America is NOT in Donald Trump or Joe Biden

First, I have to give credit for the title: it was a statement made in today's service by Pastor Jamie Powell of First Baptist Church of Perry. This is the new church home that God directed me to. I have only attended twice in person, but I faithfully watch the sermons online each week and...

How I Learned to Trust His Plan

This is going to be quite long. Don't say I didn't warn you. I was going to post it in multiple parts but I personally hate "to be continued" things, so I just decided to do it all at once. Part 1: The Elderly: A Background I've always loved elderly people and the wisdom they...

Verse of the day & A New Year Resolution/Challenge

This is a great verse, no? Are you searching with all your heart? I never stop searching. I found Him long ago, but I think we should still search every single day! By search, I mean reaching out to learn more...reading the Word....prayer and fellowship...taking time to just thank Him for everything He does for...

What Should We Be?

"Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." Psalm 46:10 Yesterday I was going through my Bible study notes while looking for something, and noticed a Bible study I'd done recently. I meant to blog on it but during all the...

“Bee”ing my Grandfather

This post is different from my last few. I usually write about God and try to teach a little about Christian principles. This one is simply a narrative, very personal and meaningful to me, but it is with the purpose of showing how God acted in my life to make things happen. The story at...

Verse of the Day

Are You Afraid to Die?

Fear of death has always been my biggest fear until recently. I would actually sit and worry about it with thoughts like "What happens then? Where will I go? Will I just cease to exist? I don't know how to NOT exist? I know the world won't stop existing because I did, but will I...

Hey you! Pay attention!

Have you ever had a moment in your life where something strange happened, that could not be explained? I think we all have, really, but the real question is...did it make you stop and think or did you just go on about your life, thinking "hmm, that was weird." As seen in my previous blogs,...

Watch Your Mouth, You Hypocrite!

I recently took a break from social media while I was coming out of a severe depressive episode. I found that seeing hate-filled posts, angriness, meanness...it just made me want to join in. It started as a desire to leave FaceBook in a boycott, due to its tendency to censor free speech and conservatives. It...

Compassion for Others, Gifted by Grace, and Finding Our Purpose in God

Today's post is chock full of stuff. I had all of these thought about compassion last night, and wanted to write about it. I also felt it necessary to write about my gift of empathy, and how I found my purpose in God. It's a lot of information but it all ties in together, so...

This is My Confession

Here’s my truth. I’m known for writing about things that may be controversial or “not talked about.” I’m known for my openness about everything. But, over the last few months, it was all a lie. A farce. A show. A mask. It was not real. I went AWOL for a while. The “real” me, at...
