Here are things, in my opinion, that are from the devil; Amazon.com, credit cards, pornography, football and donuts.
Donuts are from Satan because there is absolutely no benefit to your body in eating them. Brownies could be said to have some health benefits because chocolate is actually good for you, but donuts are horrible. They are by far the worst thing you could eat in the entire world. So don't eat them. That's my advice to you all. :)
Amazon.com is from Satan for sure, unless you can use it in moderation, which is hard. Unfortunately, just like a lot of men can't use alcohol in moderation, most women can't use Amazon.com in moderation. I recommend you stay away from it entirely if you don't want your marriage to suffer and eventually die from such a harmful addiction. I was grossly addicted to Amazon for 6 years of my marriage and it stressed my ex out to no end. Stay away from it. For sure. ;)
Credit cards are overall evil. Stay away from them if you can. The interest on them is ridiculous. If you want something, wait until you have money in your bank account to buy it. Don't ever use a credit card. And of course try to have savings for things like car repairs so you won't need a credit card.
Pornography is from Satan for sure. I'm sure most people already realize that. If you are with someone, looking at porn counts as cheating for sure. Don't look at it. It will for sure destroy any relationship you are in.
And lastly I say football is from Satan because it can dominate so much time for men. Most women want their men to focus on them when they are home. Football causes many men to be distracted from their wives and kids and that is very, very sad. Your family should be your first priority, never sports. There is no point to sports anyways, ultimately. It's just a chasing after the wind and a silly waste of time.
If you want to stay married forever, I recommend you avoid these 5 things. And then you will live long and prosper and stay in love with your spouse forever, most likely, God willing. :)
And make sure you both go to church at least once a week. It helps to be around godly people to inspire you to stay on track in trying to be a godly person.
I hope this blog benefited you all a bit. God loves you!
God bless! :)

Stay Happy 😀 No Matter What
“Here come bad news, talking this and that.
I should probably warn you I'll be just fine.
No offense to you Satan but don't waste your time.
Here's why. (You Can’t touch this 😀)
Because I'm happy.
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth and that’s what you wanna do.”
Get Obsessed with God :)
Do you ever just let yourself go with God? We let ourselves go for people, when we fall in love. What about with God? Have you ever tried getting obsessed with God? He's the main one you should be obsessed with. He is the only Being alive truly deserving of our obsession. Not any person, not football ;) , not alcohol or nicotine, only God.
He loves us more then any of us realize. I think most people hold back with God because they feel they can't trust him. But you can. People are afraid of the ruler of the world, because he is the ruler of the world. But you don't need to be afraid of him, as long as you do what he wants you to do. If you sin, then yes be afraid of him and do right. But as long as you are doing the right thing, you don't need to afraid of him. You can crawl up in his lap and fall in love with him. :)
God doesn't need to be intimidating. Jesus died for us so that we could approach God's thrown with confidence.
For me, God is my best friend. He always has been and He always will be. :) There is no better best friend you can have. He will always have your back. People in the world might say they do for a time, or act like they do, but Only God really will have your back, if you are on his side. So trust him. And love him. Always. :)
God loves you! More then you realize! Never underestimate how Much God loves you! Don't sell yourself short. You Are his precious diamond that he would search the whole world for, and he does, every day. God is always just waiting for you to notice him and say hi. He cares about you more then you realize, and he wrote you the longest love letter you have ever gotten, the Bible. So read it and fall in love with God. ;) Fall head over heels for God. :)
He is the only one who deserves that much love from you.
God bless!

Get Wiser
If you hate your life, keep in mind that your world might be worse then others’ because You are making it worse. 😉 Don’t blame God for pain and suffering that you cause yourself. 😁
“As iron sharpens iron so one person sharpens another.” I hope I make you all sharper. 😁You all, on Twitter, make me sharper, so thanks all! 😉
( Follow me on Twitter if you like, Lisa Bedrick. And look up Lisa Bedrick books on Amazon to see my self published books. Woot 😀)
May God bless you abundantly today and always!
Get Sick of the World
God doesn’t force himself on us. He is kind and patient with us. He just waits till we are so sick of what the world has to offer that we throw up from it and run to him. If you haven’t reached that point yet, you will eventually.😉👍
I have been drunk to the point of throwing up about 12 times in my life. It’s never a very fun experience. But I think that’s a perfect illustration for what happens when we get filled up with the world. It only brings us pain. But when we get filled with God’s Spirit it brings life and peace. Praise God!
Get filled up with God, not the things of the world. 👍

Learning to Wait
Just because you want something that doesn't mean you have to have it right now. I think there is such a weakness of this in our culture. No one wants to wait for anything. Everyone thinks if they want something they deserve to have it Right away. What about self-control? What about waiting on the Lord?
Those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength and soar on wings like eagles. Why? Because when we try to force things to happen ourselves it often doesn't work out. If God wants us to have something, he will make it happen in his perfect timing.
I tried dating a lot after my ex husband left me, but none of those guys worked out because I wasn't waiting on the Lord. I was trying to force things to happen with a new guy before I was really ready. You have to let your heart heal from past hurts before trying to move on. And when God knows you are ready, he will bring The One to you. Just wait on the Lord. And trust his timing.
Whatever you are wanting now, wait on the Lord. That doesn't mean be lazy and not do anything. You can pray about it of course. It just means trust that God knows what you need more then you do and he knows When you need what you need. So wait on him. Trust his timing. Don't try to force things to happen when they aren't meant to happen yet.
God's got your back. He knows what you need. Trust that he will provide what you need when you need it. Let go and let God.
May God bless you!
Now go and encourage someone else. Hope my blog encouraged you. :)

Regarding Women Working
Should women work? Should women work full time if they have kids? Has women working full time been a good or a bad thing for American culture?
Think about it, the decline of morality in our great nation started when women started working. Satan pulled women outside the home more and more due to a love of money. Then the kids got neglected and were no longer steered in the right direction by their mothers. With the father and mother out of the home, what happened to the children? The movie Jumanji paints a good illustration for this I think. Kids and life got wild. Kids were left to themselves to get into tons of trouble.
Women, for the last 50 years, have cared more about money then their kids and husbands. Hence, why modern America is now so incredibly messed up.
A lot of men now think that they want their women to work. But they also want their woman to cook and clean for them and care for their kids well. It's hard to ask for both, unless the woman works part time.
What society really needs is for women to stop chasing after money and to focus on the kids again. Men are supposed to provide. Women are supposed to nurture the next generation and help kids learn respect of adults and mentor them. With women neglecting their kids, now children are not learning this. Kids now see that all their parents care about is money and not them, so they have no respect for authority. If they knew their parents loved them, they would respect them, but they see that their parents now only care about money.
I had this issue growing up. My mom was a single mom and had to work a lot, so my older brother and I were neglected. But she bought clothes excessively, maybe because she hoped her clothes would win her a new husband. But she worked more then she needed to and shopped after work, and my brother and I were left to figure life out on our own.
Of course no parent is perfect. No parent gives their kids a perfect amount of attention and nurturing. But the reason America is the way it is now, is because so many parents are lazy in regards to their home life and put all their energy into their work life. If we are going to make America pure and great again, people need to save some energy for their home life. ;)
You have to work just as hard at home as you do at work if you don't want to loose it all.
Focus on your family. Focus on things that matter the most in life. Jobs might come and go, but hopefully your family will be forever. Invest in your kids and your spouse and don't ever take them for granted.
God bless!
A New Life
These song lyrics totally blew me away the other night. I was listening to this song on repeat about 7 times in a row at 2am. It made me think of my ex husband a lot. We were together 7 years and most of that time we really had a perfect marriage. I have had a lot of questions for God since he left 6 months ago like WHY did God let him go crazy. Why did his paranoia have to get so bad that it ruined our marriage? I have no idea. All I can figure is that God had someone better for me to spend my next 40 years of life with. I met my boyfriend a month ago when I decided to rent out rooms in my house. He is super awesome. I have never had so much fun with any guy or laughed so much with any guy. I am excited to spend my next 40 years of life with him. We are much more compatible then me and my ex husband were.
My past is still sad though, but God works all things out eventually. If one person leaves, know that God will bring someone else, someone better for you. Hope never needs to be lost or forgotten. :) Always stay in faith. Hold on. Stay strong.
This song made me cry a lot because I really was getting so tired of being strong. I have had to just be strong the past year and tough it all out. My ex husband had daily massive jealousy delusions that I was with another man, but I never was and he constantly questioned me. I literally felt like I was in a police interrogation room for the past year of my life. It was very hard. But he had NO reason to think such things of me. It turned out that he had been looking at porn our whole marriage, so it wasn't that I was cheating on him, it was that he had always been cheating on me and he was projecting what he was doing onto me. I think just the guilt of looking at porn made him go crazy. And for any reading this, yes looking at porn definitely counts at cheating.
The betrayal and subsequent ammunition like accusations of me was hard. Sometimes all you can do in life is just keep putting one foot in front of the other and know you will get through it all. Trust that there will always be a light at the end of tunnel, whatever tunnel you are in. Just trust that God will let the storm end at some point and the sunshine will come out again.
Praise God for bringing the sunshine back into my life with my new boyfriend. I love him so much! God works all things for your good. What Satan meant to use to destroy me, God used to bless me and bring into a much better life. Praise God. :) I hope the lyrics of this song encourage your spirit and heart as much as they encouraged me. God bless!
"You're Gonna Be Ok"
I know it's all you've got to just, be strong
And it's a fight just to keep it together, together
I know you think, that you are too far gone
But hope is never lost
Hope is never lost
Hold on, don't let go
Hold on, don't let go
Just take, one step, closer
Put one foot in front of the other
You'll, get through this
Just follow the light in the darkness
You're gonna be ok
I know your heart is heavy from those nights
Just remember that you're a fighter, a fighter
You never know just what tomorrow holds
And you're stronger than you know
Stronger than you know
Hold on, don't let go
Hold on, don't let go
Just take, one step, closer
Put one foot in front of the other
You'll, get through this
Just follow the light in the darkness
One step, closer
Put one foot in front of the other
You'll, get through this
Just follow the light in the darkness
You're gonna be ok
And when the night, is closing in
Don't give up and don't give in
This won't last, it's not the end, it's not the end
You're gonna be ok
When the night, is closing in
Don't give up and don't give in
This won't last, it's not the end, it's not the end
You're gonna be ok
Amen! Good job Jenn Johnson on this song! God bless :)

Love
Love can be very crazy. Love can be scary. Love is not for the weak or the timid. Falling in love is the most courageous thing anyone can do. Because you never know if or when someone might break your heart.
Also making children is the most courageous thing anyone can do in this life, for real. Giving birth and raising children is the hardest thing any woman will ever do. And providing for kids is the hardest thing any man will ever have to do. And any woman who raises And provides for kids is a total rock star for sure.
Very few people want to care for anyone other then themselves. And that's Why abortion and homosexuality is so prevalent in our modern society. So many people are to scared to have kids now. The spirit of fear is now completely dominating our country. People won't admit how afraid they are, but so many people are now.
Falling in love is very much like jumping off of a cliff. You know it could end badly, unless a wind springs up and God miraculously gives you a kite to fly on to make things work. Without God, love will almost always end badly. Keep God in the center of all you do.
I think the majority of our culture is very confused about what love is. Love is not trying to control another person. Love is sacrifice. Love is not wanting just what you want. Love is wanting the other person to be happy. If not being with you is what makes them the most happy, then let them be free. So many people try to force love still when the love is gone.
Women especially seem to struggle with this. Often times women think controlling another is showing love. But no, that's just being controlling.
Love lets people be free. Lust tries to control others. Lust is greedy. But true love is life giving, not life sucking.
May God help us all to love others with His pure and perfect love, and not with a selfish love.
May God bless you all! :)

Embrace Change and Fear Not
A hard fact of life is that nothing lasts forever. Jobs come and go, people come and go, but God is the only thing that remains constant. That is why it is very sad for anyone that doesn't cling to God, because he is really nice to have by your side to get you through hard times.
Some say God is just a crutch, but isn't it nice to have a crutch to help you walk when life knocks you down.
I have been quite sad for two months that my girls are gone but I think they are better off with their other grandparents. Mainly I wanted my girls to live with my ex so he wouldn't kill himself. I think he was on the verge with the way his mind was going. I don't trust him anymore to be in love with him anymore, but I trust that he will always be a great dad for our girls, so praise God for that.
But life is always changing and you have to learn to adapt. We can grieve our losses. It's good to cry and grieve, but you don't want to be stuck grieving and missing the past for too long. You have to move on in life and embrace change. Sometimes God takes things away when those things or people aren't good for us anymore or we aren't good for them. But it's ok. God works all things for the good of those who love them.
A lesson I have learned the hard way many, many times, is that if you are not grateful for what God has given you, he will take it away. But sometimes we have reasons to not be grateful anymore, like when relationships become abusive. God does not want anyone to be abused in any way. So he grants us freedom from things when we need it. Praise God. :)
God does not want his children to ever be unequally yoked in marriage with unbelievers. If a person is married to an unbeliever Paul says, "If the unbelieving spouse leaves the believer is not bound in such circumstances. God has called you to peace." Of course how do you know if someone is a believer or not? That is always a hard call to make with anyone. Yes we are not supposed to judge, but in the case of marriage it is important that you are with whoever is the best person God would have for you.
Many people are good at acting like they are Christian, but what really shows that someone is a Christian? Loving others is the most obvious sign. If someone does not love others how can they really say they love God?
The biggest sign to see if a person is Christian or not is to see if their thoughts, words and actions are dominated by faith or fear. A person of true faith will not be overcome by fear. A person full of fear does not have faith. You cannot have faith and fear at the same time. Either you trust God or you don't.
"God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." Amen. "There is no fear in love, but God's perfect love casts out all fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in God's love."
"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me." Amen.
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." "In God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me?" Nothing. :)
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God." "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" "Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid."
" When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and foes, it is they who stumble and fall. Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, yet I will be confident." :) Amen!
Say to those who have an anxious heart, “Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.”
Be strong all yall. Be bold. And TRUST God. :) God bless!

Don't Be a Fool
Proverbs 18:2 "A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion." Fools do not care to look at things logically. They base their reasoning on feelings rather then logic. What they feel must be true, because it's what they feel, but our feelings often lie to us. It is much better to find out what the truth is on the correct way to live, rather then base all your decisions for life just on how you feel.
Proverbs 29:11 "A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back." This one goes for anyone who thinks getting angry a lot is ok. It's not. It's foolish. Just because you feel something doesn't mean you have to express it. Go for a walk. Let off some steam before you express your anger to others.
Proverbs 1:7 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction." To despise wisdom is a shaky place to be in. To always think you are right and everyone else is wrong is a swift road to an early death. Consider what others say. Don't assume you are the only one who is always right.
Proverbs 18:6 "A fool's lips walk into a fight, and his mouth invites a beating." This is why we are supposed to speak the truth in love. Don't neglect speaking the truth, but speak it in love so that your words do not invite a beating. Don't be contentious. Be helpful and speak wisdom, but don't try to pick fights to much.
Proverbs 29:9 "If a wise man has an argument with a fool, the fool only rages and laughs, and there is no quiet." This is why the Bible says we are not to cast our pearls before swine. Fools despise wisdom and instruction. Often time, the smarter or wiser you are, the more some will hate you, because your wisdom shines light on their lack of wisdom. Miserable people love to be around miserable people, and foolish people love to be around other foolish people.
Proverbs 28:26 "Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered." Where do we find true wisdom? The Bible. Why would anyone trust only in their own mind? If what you are thinking doesn't line up with the Bible, make sure it does, so you will not be a fool.
Proverbs 18:7 "A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are a snare to his soul." "Life and death are in the power of your tongue." We can make or break our futures by what we choose to speak about it. If you speak doom, you will see destruction. Speak life. Always.
Proverbs 14:7-9 "Leave the presence of a fool, for there you do not meet words of knowledge." It is ironic in life that those who think they are the smartest are actually the most foolish, and those who think they have little wisdom actually have tons of wisdom. Why is this? Because "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." :)
Proverbs 26:3-12 "A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the back of fools. Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself." Some children were not nearly spanked enough as children, and that is why they grow up to be a fool. If you love your kids, spank them and discipline them. Then they will never become a fool that despises all correction and instruction and will not listen to anyone. If you don't make your kids listen to you and obey you, then they will never listen to or care about anyone.
May God bless you all! I pray this blog made you wiser. :)
