Welcome to my blog: I intend to share heartfelt writing about anything that comes to mind. |
Take UP Your Cross Blog Prompt: Write about unanswered prayers in your blog today. I think sometimes we all experience what we perceive to be unanswered prayers. I personally believe that God answers all prayers with a yes, no, or wait. The no's and the wait's are often what are mistaken for prayers gone unanswered. Proverbs 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life. I think this verse says a lot for this topic especially when we live in a fast paced, I want it now kind of world. Prayer prompt: Pray for the foster system, that it might be improved, and serve the children to the best of their abilities. Dear God, I pray for those in the foster care system. Let the system be improved and serve the children that need it the way they need to be served. Keep those kids safe and improve their situations quickly. In Jesus name, Amen -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you could change anything about yourself physically what would you change? Why? I think I would give myself a little more butt. I have a flat one. LOL ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I realize that my life might not have been exactly the life I thought it was. But isn’t that the way for all of us? How much do we share ― even with our closest loved ones ― and how much did I keep hidden? How much was left unsaid across almost half a century? What about you, have you ever had these thoughts or similar ones? Will someone wonder what you've left unsaid? I think some people will wish I left some things unsaid. LOL I can be painfully blunt at times. I am always wondering what will be thought of me after I am gone. I hope that I have made the world a better place with my presence. Of course, there will be things that I had wanted to do that didn't get done. I used to think that I wanted to live my life without regrets, but then I realized that regrets are sometimes part of a life well-lived and lived to the fullest. They aren't the kind of regrets that say I wish I had done something. They are the kind that say, I wish I hadn't done that. It's the kind of regret that you learn from, the kind where you wish you had known before what you know now. I hope that makes sense. ![]() ![]() |
Take UP Your Cross Blog Prompt: Do you have a tendency to self-sabotage? I think I do sometimes unintentionally. I know I can be very hard on myself. Sometimes, I am my own worst critic. Prayer prompt: Pray for those affected by the wildfires in California, USA. Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that you would help them get the wildfires under control in California. I pray for those who are losing their belongings and for those who are losing loved ones and pets. Help them to recover quickly from the devastation. In Christ's name, AMEN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Have fun with these random words: thirteen, mistakes, frequency, radical, abundant, grinch, and koalas. The Grinch stole the radical koalas from the zoo for the frequency of their mistakes and the abundant confusion regarding what people wanted for Christmas. All thirteen times, the Grinch had been blamed for the chaos that ensued. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Blog City: Dear December, Please take your weather back. This is not what I ordered for the new year. Let this quote inspire your entry today. Dear December, Please, take your weather back. This is not what I ordered for the new year. I think you are a bit confused. There are people who wanted the cold and snow for Christmas, but please note that Christmas has now passed and we no long want the snow. Please, take it back. I am returning it to sender. Thanks, Marvilla ![]() ![]() |
Take UP Your Cross Blog Prompt: Are you doing your part to fulfill God's purpose in your life? Do you know what that purpose is? I am definitely trying to do that. Apparently, I was born to be a care giver to others, because time after time that is how I have ended up. I also find writing here a fulfillment of God's purpose for me too. Prayer prompt: Pray for those considering abortion, that they might choose life. Dear God, I pray for those mothers who are considering abortion. I do hope that they choose life for the child even if they have to give it up for adoption. There are many who desire children and cannot conceive a child. I pray that they may have children too. In Christ's name, Amen -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tomorrow is a day of mourning here in the states for Jimmy Carter, he was our eldest president at 100 before he passed. Do you know any or did know Centurions? What was the oldest individual in your family? And finally, how do you feel about living to 100 years? I don't recall ever meeting anyone 100 years old or more personally. I have known many in their 90's though. It is hard for me to imagine living that long. I even try to imagine men in Biblical days that lived to be 400 or more years old, and it is unfathomable to me. According to the Bible, Noah lived 600 years before the flood came. Then live a bit longer after that. Imagine building an ark at 600 years old. No thank you. I think I will pass on that. LOL ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prompt: What is the most interesting thing you saw today? Write about this in your Blog entry today. I really didn't see anything interesting or out of the ordinary. It did snow. I guess you could say I did find looking up at the snow falling down and seeing the snow from a different perspective was kind of interesting come to think of it. ![]() ![]() |
