My world changed in a major way today. Tomorrow is the beginning of a whole new life for me that I never saw coming. God is so good. He has doors open before you ever knew the one behind you was closing. :)

Being me and eating chips and salsa... For the last 5 minutes I have been pondering on making a right side up chip... See the chip I was looking at was bent downwards and wouldn't pick up any salsa... Then It struck me... If I could patent a right side up chip... I could solve this problem for everyone... I began to study the chip and turned it over... right then I realized... wow I have spent the last 5 minutes trying to create the same chip I am looking at...

If you turn this chip upside down you get my upside down chip... Yah I amaze my self at times too...

P.S. this honestly happened... and I honestly thought I was about to create a right side up chip...

EMURIKA's future right here!

In one of my very playful and silly moods tonight. Wondering if anyone is going to be stumped by any of my posts. Ah well, it's not really funny if you have to explain it.
I wonder if this side of me is how I deal with bad news. Seems to come around about that time. More specifically is when I am hurting for someone else. Maybe humor is what I resort to in attempt to help.

*cough* getting late *cough* should go to bed soon *cough*
Is there something going around?

Sometimes I wonder what was going on through Adam's head when he first saw Eve; the absolute wonder and excitement that he had.
He was exhilarated by the fact that she was a part of him. He admired and loved her. So much so that Satan observed this and knew that the only way to get to Adam, was through her. Adam would never listen to Satan, but oh, how he loved Eve.
Adam was not wrong in this at all. He was not even wrong to listen to her and please her EXCEPT when listening to her caused him to disobey God. This is the basis of idolatry, which stands to reason that it was the first of the commandments passed to Moses. And thus the mystery of the question of "the original sin" is answered.
I sometimes wonder what Adam could have done differently. He was not wrong to love her even after she ate the fruit of the tree that God forbid. I think about this a lot. What would have happened if Adam would have simply went to God and said, "Lord? We have a problem here. How can we fix this?" But instead he disobeyed God and then blamed God saying it was his fault for giving him that which he loved so much.
So when we find those things that God gives us that we love so much, should we not trust Him even when those things might fail? I am not sure how in the case of Adam and Eve, but I believe that God was more than able to heal that situation.
Instead of giving in to the problem, we should run to God for the solution. Otherwise we will just find ourselves running and hiding in fear.

Above all- God first ..

thanking Him for working things together for His greater good...
As well as lifting all coming together back up to Him for His guidance protection and plan ..
He deserves the glory in all of it and what better way to bless Him by obeying the things of Him?
I believe Adam surpassed this step and made Himself headship over God instead of going to God and saying
"father, lord... There is a situation we've run into you being bigger than it can solve it .. Please guide us into your will and perfect plan... They ran ahead of God ..Becoming their own gods .. Deciding for themselves what was good ..
This is where the fall began.. In my observations of it ..
I believe that every "good thing " comes from Him" rememberance of that is important as well as waiting for His provision , plan and steps as He leads one in mind body and truth.. Into His perfect will..

Just take it one step at a time kids..God will guide you both. I don't think you'll make the same mistakes A & E did,and if you do God is greater than those mistakes.

M- I hope you are having a better day than last night. Based upon a post that you posted
that I read where you said you joke when you are upset or sad, I thought that might be
the case. I pray today is better for you, that you were able to sleep, and that you have
peace.

I have been wondering if it is possible that there is some physiological or maybe hormonal changes inside a person when they are annointed with the Holy Sprit. Am I crazy for thinking this lol?

Everyone's future is so bright I gotta wear shades.
Wondering if I missed the boat with my outlook of anti-children.
I just don't see how I could have ever made a good parent.
The stress of it all.
I am sure if I had a daughter,she surely would have been locked in her room until she was 30.
What is your legacy?
Is it the things you leave behind or the things you do that people remember you for?
A combination of both? What does God think about it? I know it matters to him how we treat one another while here,but outside of that I don't know is if he's all that impressed with much more.
I could be,and more than likely am very wrong on this.
I have not imparted any great wisdom or revelation unto mankind or even to a neighbor down the street...
what would I have to offer a child if I had had one?
I suppose if I had still chosen to marry an unbeliever,then I would have given that child the gift of divorce.
Not such a nice thing to leave your child as a reminder of you for their lifetime.
And if I had married a believer..what then?
Adam & Eve weren't the greatest role models for a married couple...nice legacy they left us all.
Then again,God sent Jesus to clean up that mess so why would I think that my shortcomings would be
any more difficult for him to guide me through?
Oh yes,my pride. Once again I think I know better.Once again I put myself first.
I really am sick of it...it wears you down...sometimes I just wish the end of me would run dry.
But that's why he has made us more than overcomers...is that our legacy? To be an overcomer?
When I die what will people remember about me?
Out of sight out of mind...we always forget. Even those we shared a deep bond with...sometimes you just forget,and the memories of them almost seem dreamlike.
Things for me can sometimes seem indifferent. There's no good or bad memory,just an image of someone or something I knew. I know in part I have let myself become that way. Sometimes to protect myself from the overwhelming sadness of loss.
I wonder why I keep coming here & posting. I wonder if maybe this is some sort of therapy,my ramblings..the fact that some people will read them,even if they roll their eyes or laugh at what I write I suppose it helps make me feel less worthless. Then again,I suppose a shared carton of ice cream with SeatBelt could have the same effect.

Been stuggling with feeling ugly, fat, and depressed. But I'm in the process of trying to love myslef like my Father in Heaven loves me. It's all in the eye of the beholder, and I'm sure he thinks I'm beautiful somewhere in this body of mine... All I can say is, I gave up a great figure and a great complexion for this child, and I hope he's grateful for what I've gone through for him. Otherwise.... I don't know what I'd do otherwise.... Love him anyway I suppose.

Life doesn't end with a baby, Imma. *hugs* In many ways, it's only beginning. I know it has to be difficult but keep trying to take the best care of yourself that you can.

I know a few women who weighed more AFTER their pregnancies than before... and sported totally rockin' post-baby bodies after getting back to their healthy routines on a regular, consistent (give it time, love) basis.

Much love to you!

I know, but I have acne worse than I did when I was going through those awkward stages of life, and I'm so used to having so much more energy, and being able to do so much more. It's taking it's toll on me.
But on the up side, I know it will all be worth it when I get to hold my little one in my arms and help him grow up and love the Lord as much (maybe/hopefully more) as I do
