May God change us an transform us into his image more and more this year. I pray we can all be kind, generous and considerate, loving those who are difficult, and seeking God's will in all we do.
For those who are hurting, please know that God loves you, and God is going to help you persevere through the pain and suffering.
God bless!

May we all be open to accept everyone where they are in their walk with Jesus. My mantra is "There but for the grace of God goes or thinks I".
When I read some postings by younger people and sometimes cringe, I remember how off I was in so many ways back then. I need to remember how kind and patient God was with me. How could I not be the same?

1 .) I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 .) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

I agree...but..as the BIBLE says "Open rebuke is better than love concealed". Some people think that they 'build people up' by using doctrine instead of reflecting CHRIST. But...even JESUS Himself confronted those who were planning on trapping Him and 'setting HIm up" for a fall. I personally like how HE handled those buyers and sellers in the temple,and the Sadducees and the Pharissees in public, etc.
Ephesians 4:26) Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
27 .) Neither give place to the devil.
28 .) Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
29 .) Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
30 .) And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
31 .) Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
32 .) And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

4 .) To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 .) Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
6 .) Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:
7 .) That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
