Aww, Thank you.

Which has me wondering.... why don't you guys enjoy summer like others? Go to the beach with some sunblock and watever else you guys put on your skin, lol
My beach is the Gulf of Mexico a couple miles down the road but I have only been there twice. I used to go to Daytona Beach and Cocoa beach a few times when I lived in Orlando. I guess the reason to avoid the beach, as well as the crowd, is because it is hot and humid in the summer in Florida. Basically, I guess that I am a couch potato now.

How is everyone? Haven’t been on in awhile lol.

So funny thing happened last night. Well not really funny. So anyway, Around 4:30pm I got a txt from my sister that our two dogs got outta the gate. Now these two dogs are quite, let’s say “selective hearing” in who they listen to lol my sister tried driving everywhere to find them. Still no luck. I got home like two hours, and still hadn’t been found. I rang my other sister and she picked me up and we went to try and find them.

I was praying and encouraged my sisters to pray as well.

As my sister was about to give up, we get a call from the dog pound that a kind samaritan found them and handed them in.

Praise God!

So we went to pick them up and by then it was 7pm, cold and raining a little. The dogs were crying when we got there and were absolutely happy to see us :)

Anyway, this reminded me how much God loves us, but also His creatures that He created. And also that He sends people and uses them to help answer our prayers in times of need and distress. This kind samaritan was used as part of Gods plan to bring our boys home.

I thought I’d share this with you all :) I miss you all and pray that God continues to send those people (and even Angels in disguise) to help rescue you in times of trouble.

Cos das how God rolls 😎😉🙏🏽😊❤️
God loves all of his creatures great and small. Loved reading your post. :)

there's a very high possibility that from the day that we are saved, this is true

the sense of "purity", "innocence" and "being saved" is enjoyable
and there's hope that it's preserved somehow

when what we perceive as "unintentional sin" happened, and we fall into sin
even if we are forgiven, we don't trust our own heart, and we feel awkward about this

I believe a lot of problems stems from the fact that we don't know how to reconcile with the fact that our own hearts are untrustworthy.

so, what are some ways to reconcile with the fact that our own hearts are untrustworthy?

I perceive that you are a deep thinker sir, and that's a good thing. I contemplate a few things myself too.

what's strange is that i've been trying to pray the prayer of salvation in my dream for reassurance to the point where I start to realize, hey, I might be just dreaming right now, and then somehow an insight hit me, and that insight hit me, and I think it might be God who was speaking to me

God speaks to you all of the time. He finds you to be an interesting person and a good conversationalist.
