I feel like I want to say something just to make our minds feel better, I do understand the levity of brother s4T's prior posts and I've been feeling like that too, not completely, but, yeah, we all get down on ourselves and life is not fair sometimes, things happen, that is the truth of things since Adam and Eve sinned and we all get consequences from it, just as the bible says. When 'sin entered the world,' life as was paradise became much different, all those things of Gen. 3 for the man and woman commmanded out by God.
Buit, S4T, I really thought the last words you posted about understanding God, and, thanking Him for His grace is such an awesome way to get through what you're going through . That's the faith of Abraham it seems you have goiing forth, wow ! God's going to do great things with that kind of faith in you of growing yourself more and more in Him.

It's been a good day today, I found the perfect time for popcorn in the microwave , 3:19, I am repeating it so that I don't forget it

Indeed, God is good. He's just too. And, He just Loves ALL of us, God does not want anyone to perish, He wants to give them a chance to choose Him and He is most certainly drawing them to Him. All on planet Earth get that chance, I believe, 'that no one should perish,' Scripture says. And, I can only imagine those streets, paved with gold. Ahhhh, yes, the fruit trees that change with different fruits monthly, fresh fruit is so good on Earth, I can only image it better, much better, in heaven. And, just a place of so great joy is where we go when we die, "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."
Blessings, all, goood nightt, and, before I go, a few things more, imGod'swildthing, those are good words you said, milady, about following the Lord Keep your eyes solely focused on Him, He will keep you strong and your child will be such a blessing to this world that, through your raising him'her in faith, God will do great things to save many souls.
How great Thou art. Great things He hath done, is doing, and, will keep on doing until time ends and we are with Him, and, I just bet, He still is doing great things when we are with Him when we die

I think there is a secure reason why Christ said to take one day at a time. The past is gone is less that a second and the future is not here yet, and we can't predict any future event. So to the best of what God has taught me is to live right now here in the present, for this is a present to us from God.
Now nothing ever wrong with making future plans. What is bad about making future plans is "expectations" that beset us when it does not turn out the way we planned. So no expectations of future events, yet go ahead and plan, just do not expect, count on it to turn out the way you planned. So if it does turn out the way you planned okay, and if does not, them by no expectation to have you are not upset over it not turning out the way you planned
Praying you get it and understand about plainly trusting God for God to actually truthfully takes care of us. This is what God promised to those that seek God and God's righteousness, that all our needs will be taken care of!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been awhile since I have been on CC. Thought I should post to let everyone know that I am still around. Things have been very busy lately... a good busy.
I have been becoming more active at the Family Ministry Center in my community. I am currently working on a mural project for a sister in Christ's new coffee shop. I got the 32 by 7 foot canvas stretched, trimmed, and gesso-primed this past week (with the help of 3 other artists). We plan on starting painting next week.
I talk to Denise multiple times a day. She calls from the County Jail and has made a complete turn around. She has committed her life to Christ and is very thankful to God for all that He has done for her; even intervening by her being put in jail to be able to gain strength against her drug addiction. She is completely different now, yet familiar to me because she has been restored to the woman that I grew to love. She is even better than she was then now that she has made God first in her life. She has been a great blessing constantly telling me how much she appreciates and loves me and how thankful she is to God for me. It has been an amazing journey and I am so thankful to God for the healing that He is performing to wounds that are over 20 years old. See Chitown Love in the Testimony section if you would like to hear more about this.
I am keeping a close watch on things going on with this nation and other parts of the world. I am seeing things that the Lord has shown me come to pass. I am seeing evidence that the "cup" in the United States is almost full. I am praying for those in the nation and ministering when given the opportunity.
I am thankful for the CC community and the friends that I have made here. It has been an absolute blessing to have a place that I can share and learn from others.
Grace and peace be to all of you through our Lord, Jesus Christ. So be it.

That's awesome to hear, markenem , He sees your faith and your desire to serve Him, you choice to move forward boldly with a faith in His leading. That's bringing you new blessings and understandings, too, of His grace, and , Love. Keep on keeping on with Him showing the way, great miracle it sounds that God brought you and Denise back together. Super fabulous. That is how our God works when we have faith in Him, miraculously.
Ah - it seems simple when on paper, but when our emotions, wants and desires get in the way...no, it's not.
Praying for courage to do the right thing, and the Lord's peace in dealing with any fallout.

No can do. We love you and are here to support and encourage. You are stuck with us.
If you are still breathing, then it is not too late to turn things around, seek forgiveness, if needed, repent, and seek direction, and allow the Lord to lead.
You were reminded that you are human, and fallible?
A child of God(Jn 1:12), complete in Christ (Col 2:9-10), free from condemnation (Rom 8:1-2), God's temple (1 Cor. 3:16), to name a few....
If it's not something you would feel weird discussing with a dude, feel free to PM me.
