I wonder why this world doesn't really seem to care about God. I wish everyone cared. Maybe He would return if everyone cared. I wish He would come back.
After a difficult week I’m happy to report the Lord’s movement. I’ve spent a lot in time in prayer and although my discomfort remains, spiritually, i’m in a good place.
I appreciate the prayers and kind words. I’d like to give you something in return. Whatever you’re seeking in the Lord, don’t stop. There may be impediments hindering your movements. But nothing God ordains can be thwarted.
For those desiring to marry, stand against the negative and demonic elements in your way. Don’t assume it’s simply lack of opportunity, personal issues, or other factors alone. Pray against all assignments impeding your union and success. Pray against your stumbling blocks and pray in their remedy.
Do this once per month. Pray for your spouse everyday. Cover them from head to toe. Address their character, faith, work, struggles, friends, family, etc. Get used to exercising your prayer muscles. You’ll need them a lot later on.
The battle doesn’t begin when you find someone. You’re undergoing it now. Stand against negative thoughts and emotions that ensnare and promote fear or sadness. Affirm His fruit constantly. Use I am statements: I am love, peace, joy, and so on.
Tell the Lord you’re ready for your promised land. Ask Him to lead you there and strip away anything that would keep you in the wilderness. Then stand.
Encouraging words. Thank you so much for this post Bella. God bless.
I haven't see you make a bee before, but the pattern sounds really interesting. You're going to make a test bee plushie?Yesterday was not difficult after all. I hardly thought about that website at all since I had things to do. God must have helped.
I'm developing a new plushie pattern which I'd like to post in my blog as a free pattern once it's ready. It's a bee!Right now I'm sewing a plushie to test the pattern, then I'll make any necessary changes and make another one!
Some of the comments on beauty gave me pause. I see beauty everywhere in the simple and ornate. Minimizing God’s handiwork is strange.
I don’t believe in diminishing physical attractiveness.
On that topic: What category of bee would Daniel Jones belong to?
A Fumble Bee.
If you're referring to what I think you are referring to, then yes, I agree. It gave me more than pause. I was tempted to come in with the comment that it almost sounded like the fellow in question is so against physical beauty that, to him, any woman who is attractive to many a man must immediately be some sort of shallow, deceptive creature with only evil and ungodliness in her heart.
Enjoying pleasant Sunday afternoon on my back deck, sipping a cup of decaf, and catching up on various forums.
I actually wanted to find a free pattern on the internet, but none of them appealed to me.I haven't see you make a bee before, but the pattern sounds really interesting. You're going to make a test bee plushie?
LOL! I never saw a bee play football!On that topic: What category of bee would Daniel Jones belong to?
A Fumble Bee.
I can't believe I signed up to work the election again tomorrow. 14+ hours. That's going to be nuts.
Just because you don't find something appealing doesn't mean it's bad or wrong. You have different tastes.
And Lord have mercy upon the man who dares to disrespect my crushas a deceitfully charming (therefore implying ungodliness in this case) woman who is rejected in so many Proverbs passages just because she is considered physically attractive by many.
