Welcome to my blog: I intend to share heartfelt writing about anything that comes to mind. |
 Take UP Your Cross Prompt: Judges 21:25 In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes. What does it mean to do what is right in your own eyes? Is this something you do personally? Answer: To me, this is referring to self-righteousness. There probably wasn't any government in that time and area. These people did what they personally thought was right which could vary from person to person. You can be doing what you think is right and a lot of good deeds, but if they are outside of God's will for you, you are committing sin. This is why this verse is in a negative context. I am sure we have all been guilty of this at some point in our lives. It is something I try to avoid doing now that I am aware of it. In the verses yesterday, they say that in all our ways we are to acknowledge God and he will direct our paths and to lean not to our own understanding.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is the link to the group I do these Scripture writings with on Facebook if anyone else is interested in doing so also. https://www.facebook.com/groups/dailyscripturewritingplan/?ref=share Scripture writing - Romans 15:5-7 Scripture: 5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: 6 That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. 7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God. Observations: Verse 5- God is a God of peace and consolation. He wants us all to be united through Jesus Christ. Verse 6- This glorifies God. Verse 7- receive others the way God receives you. Application: God wants us to be at peace and console one another. He wants us to be united together for his glory. Prayer: Dear God, Thank you for your mercy and grace. Help us to to receive each other like you received us. Help us to be at peace with one another for your glory and to truly walk in your image and example. In Jesus’s name, Amen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gratitude List 1. Sewing Machine 2. Accomplishments 3. Vehicles 4.

Tell us about a special place and moment in your life. One of my most cherished childhood memories was of my Dad’s mother pushing me in my backyard tree swing and singing “Swing Low Sweet Chariot” to me while I swang. My Dad had tied a rope to a big tree branch and placed a board he had fitted for it across the bottom for a seat. I loved that old home-made swing. I spent many hours in that tree swing while I was growing up. After I became an adult, the rope finally rotted and fell apart. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  and  If you were to prepare dinner for the President and First Lady, what would you prepare? Would you be the host or let someone else be? Would you spring for table decorations for the table or leave it as is? I would not spend extra money to decorate. I would probably make everything look as nice and neat as possible. I would be honest and I would continue to be myself. I would treat them like an honored guest rather I like the president or not. I would give them the respect and their security the respect the title deserves. I would prepare a nice meal with desert and some iced tea to go along with some southern hospitality. I am no celebrity and even if I was I will be myself. It is too difficult to be and maintain someone you are not. I know because I am a preacher’s kid. I will not play the pretend game just to be accepted. I am accepted for who I am or not at all.
