Be Grateful

 "Grateful people want want they have."

"If you can't be content here, you won't be content there."

I love my car. It couldn't be better. 

I love my house! It couldn't be better. 

I love my face and my body. It couldn't be better. 

I love my clothes. They couldn't be better. 

If there is anything else you want, practice saying, "I don't need it."

"The reason you don't have more money is because it would ruin your life and you would be too spoiled."

We always want just a little bit more, but as long as you think that way, you will never be happy. Be content with what you already have. 

God bless!



Church People

 In regards to church, it is easer to watch pastors online because I don't know them personally. They haven't screwed me over in any way. I have a love hate relationship with the only two churches in my town. At one, the worship pastor flirted with my ex bf a lot. They were on the worship team together. I always felt like she was trying to steal his heart away from me. So I kind of resent her for that. 

At the other church, the pastor could be blamed for the reason me and my ex husband broke up. He told him to go home to his mom's for awhile to clear his head. He only got more crazy in that time, so that was bad advice. I have had to fight away feelings of bitterness and betrayal toward him the past 2 years. 

But both those churches felt like my family for awhile, so part of me wants to go back to both of them. 

I have been burned by plenty of church people. One guy was an assistant pastor at a church I went to for 10 years. I decided to go to a different church. I was going to join a leadership team at the new church. The pastor at my former church called and told them to not let me on any leadership teams because I was a flake. It was so odd. The pastor at the new church asked me, "Did you date him or something?" I guess he was acting like a crazy ex lover. But no, he was married and had kids. I had always had a crush on him, but we were always were just friends. 

When I was 15 I was on the youth worship team, missions team, and leadership team in my youth group. My youth pastor kicked me off all of them after she found out I had gotten high with a guy I worked with. She talked to me one day and said she didn't think I was really saved because I did that. Years later she apologized and said she realized David committed adultery and murder but he was called a man after God's own heart. It was nice to see her see the light on that. No one is perfect. Don't let anyone expect you to be perfect. Or if they do, ask them when the last time was they were perfect for a day. 

I got up and gave a testimony about this in my next church. I told the story and said, "God loves us no matter we do." That church was more focused on grace so it went along with how they taught. That was why my mom had us switch churches. She knew we needed a grace church after a Baptist judgmental church. This second church was like a hospital. I never got burned at that church. It was a beautiful experience and people were happy there 24/7. It was a wonderful sanctuary. That is probably why they kept growing so much. 

I suppose the lack of grace is why most people avoid churches. Some churches are always ready, it seems, to beat you over the head with a Bible when you do the slightest thing wrong. To which I would want to say, "Really? Are you perfect? I highly doubt it. But keep pretending. Go ahead and keep pretending." 

Jesus had a problem with church people too. They were called the Pharisees. He was constantly correcting them and getting in their face. He basically said to them every time he saw them, "You think you are so awesome? No. I am awesome. Get it right." They wanted to challenge him and he wanted to challenge them. Who was right? Obviously Jesus was. But the Pharisees never stopped thinking they were the right ones. That was why they crucified him. They couldn't handle anyone saying they weren't doing it right. They knew they were wrong, or else they wouldn't have gotten so mad and felt so threatened by Jesus. Good job Jesus for standing up for yourself against those jerks. :)

You can find prideful people in any area of life, not just in church. In the last days people are lovers of self. You can see that anywhere you look now. 

If you have been burned by church people in the past, just know they aren't all bad. Maybe some of them are, but not all of them are. Try to trust some of them. Some people hurt you, but others can help to heal you. You can forgive those who hurt you, but you don't have to trust them anymore. God will send new people that are good that you can trust. 

God bless!

Quitter or Fighter?

 We grew up always saying, "That's not fair...." And how did our parents always respond? "Life isn't fair." Now I would like to say that to God. I have been trying to serve him well with my writing for awhile now and here comes my crazy stiff neck problem. God says, "You realize it is spiritual attack right?" Yeah but why do you allow Satan to attack me so often and so well? "Life is never fair. This will make you stronger." But I'm tired of being made stronger. "I know and I'm sorry." 

I remember after my ex husband went crazy and left me I was freaking out to my step dad and crying. I was saying to him, "Doesn't God realize I have gone through enough? I mean my dad and Roger dying and now this? Why does so much stuff have to keep happening to me?" 

Sometimes we just don't get it, do we? We think we are a good person. We do what we can to change the world, or help the world, and all we get is shitty situations. So then we might give up and say, "What's the point? Why be good when there seems to be no reward? Why should I be on God's side when he doesn't seem to be protecting me?" 

I remember one time in my brother's car he played "A Light at the End of the Tunnel" for me. The title is Tunnel by Third Day. We both went through a LOT in life. But I think we always tried to hold onto that hope, that someday things would be better. The strongest person I've ever known, besides myself, is my older brother. We both know how to take a hit! Which I suppose that is kind of bragging rights. I suppose we both could say to Satan, "Is that all you got? Really? You hit like a girl. You can't knock me down. I'll keep fighting no matter what you do. You suck." :)

Hey ya'll, don't give up. Whatever God has told you to do, keep doing it, even if Satan tries to knock you down as often as he can. Keep running. Keep punching that devil back. Keep hitting him with all you got. He will fall down and give up eventually. He can only take so many hits back. 

He isn't used to people fighting back. So many people when Satan hits them, they are an easy knock out. They are down with one punch. But you have to be resilient. You can't be a pansy and fight against Satan well. You have to be a strong warrior for Jesus! woot :)

Joyce Meyer says the best way to get Satan back is to go show love to as many people are you can. So do it. :) Amen! 

So here I am awake at 4am on Halloween listening to Hillsong worship and writing as if to say to Satan, "You thought you could take me out or slow me down? Never!" The song I thought of upon waking was "Can't Hold Us Down." If you ever wanted a motivation song for life, that would be it. It's all about how men can't hold women down, even though they might try. Us women will be heard, and we will STILL try to change the world. Ya'll can't hold us down, you overly strong dominant men. :) Women, let your voice be heard. Don't let Satan try to shut you up just because you're a woman. That doesn't have to discredit you because you are female. You have a right to speak just as much as men do. Satan tries to silence women a lot because he knows how powerful we can be. :)

Don't let Satan take you out. He can roar and foam but don't be scared of him. He can't touch you right? He can't get through unless you let him, but don't. Keep your guard up. Don't let him slither his way into your mind. God is good, all the time. Amen? We might not always understand what he does or why he allows some things to happen to us, but we have to trust him. You might say, "Why should I trust God?" Because there is no other being or entity worthy of your trust. If you can't trust God, who can you trust?  

Things might not be going the way you want them to, but just wait. "Those who wait on the Lord will soar on wings like eagles!" Let God work for you. Stop striving. Let God dictate your life. Any time we try to call the shots things blow up in our face. "Let it be." You know you need to let go and let God. Let him take things over and take a load off. See what he will do. God stands up when we sit down. As long as we are working, he won't do as much. When we finally take a break he says, "Ok can I take over now? Do you admit you need my help now?" Yes God, we know we need your help. And he goes to work. 

Let God work for you. He would be happy to. God bless. :)

Physical Pain

 In 2 Cor. 12 Paul says, "In order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

I currently have a thorn in my flesh. I can barely move my neck. Cry me a river. :) Sometimes God lets us suffer to teach us a lesson about being prideful. For whatever reason, God seems to want to humble me now. 

Contrary to what some pastors teach, it is not true that God wants us to always be rich and healthy. He wants to meet our needs and he wants to keep us alive to serve him, but he doesn't promise any of us a perfect life free of pain. God uses pain to humble us and to make us run to him faster then ever before. When life is great, we don't think we need God as much. But when things are rough and there is pain, we cry out "Abba Father help me!" and he runs to us to help us. 

When we come to the end of ourselves, God rushes in to comfort us. He let's us become weak sometimes so we can see more how much we need him. When we are weak, we are strong because we finally rely on God's strength. We admit we can't do it all ourselves and that we need His help. 

When I was in college my constant prayer was, "God I can't do this, but you can." I think God wants to hear that from us all the time. God does give us more then we can handle, so that we will need his help more. :)

If you are feeling weak, physically, mentally or emotionally, reach out to God. He loves when we finally come to the end of ourselves, and we ask him to step in and help us. He has no greater joy then comforting us and giving us power when we think we have none. God can show up and show out when we get over ourselves and get out of the way. :)

May God bless you!

Don't Have a Stiff Neck

 I woke up with the worst stiff neck of my life today. It hurt so bad I was crying, and asking God why the heck he let me have so much pain today. He says, "It's to tell you to take it easy. You don't have to save the whole world." Ok God. I'll try to remember that. :)

It made me want to write a brief blog on the topic of stiff necked people. The Israelites were referred to as a stiff necked people a lot because they were not humble and refused to submit to God's leading. If God leads you to do something or say something, do it, no matter how scary it is. 

Have you heard the phrase "Bend the knee or have it broken?" Yep. You can either bend your knee willingly to God, or he can break your knees so that you will then bow to worship him. He is a jealous God. Sometimes he has to break us in order to get us to see him better. Our focus might be somewhere else and God says, "No look at me. I am the only thing you should be focused on. Thank you."

Here are verses about having a stiff neck:

Acts 7:51 


“You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you."


This verse always stood out to me. A lot of Christians even resist the Holy Spirit. They are scared of the power of God. They want life to stay easy and predictable. They are scared of what the Holy Spirit might ask them to do. Don't be afraid of the Holy Spirit. You will be glad when you learn to trust him. 


Exodus 33:3


God said, "Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey; but I will not go up among you, lest I consume you on the way, for you are a stiff-necked people.”


This is God talking to the Jews in the Old Testament. They were not flexible with God. They wanted things to go their way. That is why God called them stiff necked. 

Romans 1:30 


Slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents...

Proverbs 29:1 


"He who is often reproved, yet stiffens his neck, will suddenly be broken beyond healing."


Be careful of resisting the Holy Spirit. 

Jeremiah 17:23 


"Yet they did not listen or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck, that they might not hear and receive instruction."


Fools despise wisdom and instruction. Don't be a fool. Be wise. "Wisdom is found in those who take advice" from God and others. 


May God bless you!

Fasting

 I had a summer when I was on staff for a Junior High camp that I decided to fast every Wednesday for 24 hours each time. I still had water, juice and coffee. I just didn't eat any solid food in that time. My intention was to make my prayers stronger for the youth I was working with. There was one guy in particular named Greg that I knew needed lots of prayer. He was very reserved. He did start to open up and come out of his shell more. One time I went 3 days in fasting. By the 3rd day I felt incredibly weak. It was a very interesting experience. I think partly I went 3 days just to see if I could do it. You do get a bit of an ego boost when fasting, just that you can actually do it. If you are feeling insecure for any reason, that can make you feel better about yourself. 

The main reason to fast is to teach yourself to appreciate things more. It's easy to start to take food for granted, or any blessing from God. When you deprive yourself of food for a long period, you appreciate it a LOT more after that. Just something simple like food becomes like winning the gold medal in the Olympics after fasting for a period of time. :)

There are about 150 verses in the Bible about fasting. Clearly it is something that God feels is important. It is not just some random theological subject. It could be said, it is a very central aspect to worshipping God or being obedient to God. 

Here is the most important reason to fast: 

1 Corinthians 9:27 


I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.


Paul wrote half of the New Testament and he was worried about being disqualified? That is pretty amazing. And how did he say he could prevent this? By disciplining his body and keeping it under control. The greatest way to learn self-control for any area of life is by fasting. Your stomach should not master you. You should master your stomach. 

Matthew 6:16-18 


“When you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you."


The point of all this is that you aren't fasting for others, you are doing it for God, to show that you take your faith seriously. Part of the Christian faith is dying to yourself and letting God live through you. The best way to die to yourself is to fast. 

Isaiah 58:3-7 

 Behold, in the day of your fast you seek your own pleasure, and oppress all your workers. Behold, you fast only to quarrel and to fight and to hit with a wicked fist. Fasting like yours this day will not make your voice to be heard on high.



This implies that if you fast the right way, God will be more inclined to hear your voice. Maybe I'll fast tomorrow. :) When you fast, it doesn't give you an excuse to fight with others. It can make you more inclined to be fiesty because being hungry isn't fun. Actually it can be fun just because it's different, but it can make you grumpy. The key is to still be loving even when you are fasting. 

Joel 2:12 


“Yet even now,” declares the Lord, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning."


One reason to fast is if there is something that you need to confess. It can be a kind of contrition, or making it up to God. Granted Jesus' death paid for all our sins, but God still likes to see that we really are sorry about our sins sometimes. Fasting is one way to show that. 


Matthew 4:1


"For forty days, being tempted by the devil. Jesus ate nothing during those days. And when they were ended, he was hungry."


Before Jesus began his entire ministry he fasted for 40 days. I think he just did that to show he was a total rock star. Good job Jesus. :) If he could handle 40 days, I'm sure you could handle a day or two. The Bible doesn't really say Why Jesus fasted for 40 days. Even though he was perfect and he was God, he still might have needed to die to himself. In his ministry it was all about other people. He was constantly teaching others or healing others. This time of fasting probably helped him to be more other-focused rather then self-focused. 

Matthew 4:4 


But Jesus answered Satan and said, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”


A big reason to fast is so that you can stop thinking about food for a period of time. Then you focus just on God for that time rather then food. If you think about it, a constant thought can be "What should I eat next?" Fasting helps you take a break from that annoying ongoing question. :) I always get annoyed when I'm hungry again when it seems like I just ate. I don't know about you, but it can be great to take a break from the non stop eating madness.

And he issued a proclamation and published through Nineveh, “By the decree of the king and his nobles: Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything. Let them not feed or drink water, but let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and let them call out mightily to God. Let everyone turn from his evil way and from the violence that is in his hands. Who knows? God may turn and relent and turn from his fierce anger, so that we may not perish."

As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in that day."


Thank you for reading. Now go fast and be blessed. :)

Oh to See an Angel

 I've never prayed for this before, but I think I'll start praying that I can see an angel. haha, God just said to me, "You already do see an angel, yourself." Thanks God that's cute. :) 

Psalm 91:11 


"If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”

and you make the Most High your dwelling,

No harm will overtake you,

no disaster will come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
    you will trample the great lion and the serpent."

I just spent like 5 minutes staring at this passage. :) This is probably the most beautiful passage in the entire Bible. If you expect God to protect you, he will. "According to your faith it will be done." Making God your dwelling means that he is your constant friend and companion. You know that he is always there and you converse with him 24/7. If you stay close to God, no harm and no disaster will affect you. No plague will phase you. You will stand strong like an oak tree through any rain or wind storm. Nothing will trip you up. Thank you Jesus! If you do start to feel weak, God will send his angels to help you. There are videos of angels saving people from death. They can protect you if you want them to. Why don't they save everyone from death? I suppose angels mainly protect those who love God the most, and God knows who is naughty or nice. :) I love that line "you will trample the great lion." Who is that? Satan! "The devil prowls around like a roaring lion."  

There is a beautiful video of Tyler Perry quoting Psalm 91. The title is "I need a WORD." Feel free to look that up or read the rest of these verses about angels. :) 

For any wondering when I put tons of verses in a blog on a topic I get them from openbible.com. That website is great! Type in the search bar any word and dozens of verses come up on that subject. When I first got saved there was just a book Concordance that you could get. It would give you the verse references but not all the verses on each topic so you had to look them up. This website is so much easier.
