Working.

What were your parents doing at your age?

My parents worked. Put food on the table and a roof over our heads.

Took me to church since I was born showing me the righteousness of GOD.

I am grateful for all of my elders who led me to GOD and JESUS so I could make it into heaven.

They worked hard until they decided to retireย  and have some peace. You need to enjoy life after working. Take a deep breath and thank GOD for all of your blessings.

Sketchers. Like walking on pillows. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where theyโ€™ve taken you.

My favorite types of shoes are sneakers. The ones that are well cushioned. I will wear a pair until it’s done. Once any kind of shoe that’s broken in, they are now super comfortable!

Well appreciated, too.ย  On those days when do alot of traveling, then there’s alot of walking too.

The right color sneakers can be worn in any outfit from church dresses , summer dresses to sporty outfits , and just casual.

Once you go sneakers and comfort, it’s hard to go back to anything else!

Like minded believers! ๐Ÿ˜€

Who are your favorite people to be around?

When I am around people who are like-minded and in the body of Christ JESUS, there is no feeling of conflict. There is a calm spirit amongst us.

Peacefulness.

An instant connection with everyone, for we have the same goals ofย  wanting to get into heaven. To be with the GOD with love and HIS son JESUS when our days are done!

When one is going through something and is in need of prayer, it is very comforting to be around such people you can call your brother or sister in faith! For we serve the same GOD and have accepted JESUS as savior ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ.

Cool ๐Ÿ˜Ž.

Cold clear water.

What is your favorite drink?

No chemicals, cold, clear, delious water. GOD made and enjoyed.

On a hot summer day, in my water jug while out in the garden,ย  a sip is satisfying. Welcomed and appreciated.

Nothing can take away my thirst any better.

Hmmm. The game of golf maybe?

What bores you?

Heavy stuff.

Well, I really can’t say there are too many things that can bore me. But I will say that the game of golf could be an item.

I watched it with my husband. I see people of all nationalities of men and women play it. They seem to be enjoying it. That’s cool.

But what I enjoy I am quite sure will bore others. I just never to a liking to it. Even when  he tried to teach me this sport.

I see how focused the athletes are, the strategies they have to hit the ball off the tee to make go close as possible to the next hole. The equipment used and the caddy who carries the golf clubs. (See the above picture.)

And those bags are good and heavy with all of the clubs used in it. Plus the balls, tees, water to drink, a towel (towels), etc. I picked up my husband’s bag and was mildly surprised ๐Ÿ˜ฎ!

But I realize it for the money or whatever else these tournaments give these players who stick through it and win. It couldย be over a million dollars.

Even if I were playing in those tournaments, I would still be bored. It’s like eating plain vanilla yogurt alone for dinner. Some people may like that, and some won’t.

That’s why GOD gave us freedom of choice. ๐Ÿ˜„

1Thessalonians5:16-28. Pray without ceasing!๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

Colossians 4:2

โ€œContinue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;โ€

(KJV)

Hello everyone.

As I grow older each day, and each day that our beloved FATHER GOD gives me, I learn a new thing. Each lesson will then help me with the next day given to me to survive with.

Each day will have a situation in it that will involve the previous lessons given. As a true believer in GOD and JESUS, I grow in my faith daily. I learn more spiritual discernment.

In these days and times, we all need this. It is a part of life, like breathing air. When communicating with others, we need it to have a righteous understanding.

With people who are used to texting and not really having good verbal communication ,we need to pray over how to do so.

This is why I have prayer in the title. Not only prayer for things we need, but for us to understand each other in a GODLY way.

I pray to be more compassionate, patient, loving, and concerned about who I am speaking to. Asking GOD for more wisdom and discernment, too. Because no matter what, I think I understand what another person is going through, I don’t.

Only GOD can claim that perfectly. ๐Ÿ™‚

Pray for healing of the body and mind of all of your family and friends, too. Pray for your coworkers , those who are on levels of political offices, too. All mankind, for we all share the same earth. Not one person is better  than the other.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

1 Thessalonians 5:16-28

16 Rejoice evermore.

17 Pray without ceasing.

18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

19 Quench not the Spirit.

20 Despise not prophesyings.

21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

25 Brethren, pray for us.

26 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.

27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.

28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ

Wake up in the morning and talk to GOD and JESUS. Pray. I do.

Listen for the answer given and accept it. Our beloved FATHER GOD will answer, giving you a righteous answer.

It may not be what you want to hear, but it will be right. For our heavenly FATHER GOD knows all. And can fix all in HIS perfect timing. ๐Ÿ˜€

Ask me how I know, and I will give you more than one testimony of my faith. For I serve a loving, perfect FATHER GOD and have JESUS as my loving savior.

They hear our prayers. We just need to be patient and listen.

What I understand about faith.

What advice would you give to your teenage self?

I grew up in church. And understanding my GOD and HIS SON JESUS at a young person’s faith. Immature as was my age as well. A teenager has not lived long enough to experience the same things as most adults have.

So there is a limit to what you would be exposed to if you are living in a good home.

Growing up and giving more responsibility,ย  meeting new people good or bad. Learning not everyone lives as you do or thinks the same from clothes to icecream.

This includes faith and trusting GOD and HIS SON JESUS. Not everyone is one of the same levels of faith. Some will have no faith at all and will treat you better than one who proclaims to be an honest Christian.

Or a Buddhist or Catholicย  or Jewish or a jehovah witness. Each one has a different belief about JESUS.

I wonder if my life would have been different  now if I knew what I know now back then about my faith in GOD. ๐Ÿค”

The KJV Bible.

What books do you want to read?

I have not found any books like the Bible that is as comforting when I read it. It can talk back to you. I love it!

The Bible is the living word of GOD. It will talk to you and give you understanding to your daily life struggle. Giving you the comfort you need.

As soon as you pick it up and read it, you will feel the power in it. Or even be led to a chapter to read concerning you. Giving you a moment of understanding.

You can get an “Aha, i get it!” moment when reading the living word

You will get comfort as well when you need to stay until the end of the race!

Revelation 21:4

โ€œAnd God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.โ€

Numbers 14:18. GOD is patient with us.

Hello everyone.

It is time to get right with our beloved FATHER GOD. For those who will say I am not ready to do so and will do that later is taking a great chance in getting right with GOD.

Every single day I need to repent. Repent of the wrong that I know is wrong that I remember I did and those things I do not remember. We all are sinners. This is why we all need to come to JESUS and repent daily.

It is easy to go about life doing what you want, disrespecting GOD yourself and other people. It is easy to commit sins and not be fulfilled and keep doing them without complete satisfaction. And not realizing you will never get satisfaction from doing evil. Never, not in life and certainly not in death when you have chosen hell.

It is hard to be right. You have temptations you need to rebuke of that come at you in all directions. You work hard at being right, but you know you cannot do right unless you have JESUS help you.

GOD is patient with us.

Numbers 14:18 KJV

18 The Lord is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.

HE is loving and has the last say in everything here on earth and in heaven. GOD knows what we think and sees what we do. GOD knows what is in the future of the choices that we make, and we don’t from being stiff necked and hardheaded people. We need to see for ourselves.

The devil messes with us humans. Distracts us from paying attention to what our beloved FATHER GOD is trying to warn us about what is going to happen. If we don’t listen to HIS warnings we will suffer from our bad choices. Instead of GOD good choices.

Friends, we are living in the last days if not the last minutes here on earth before our beloved JESUS will return. Then it will be all over. Judgement will then be in process and we all will have to stand before JESUS. Awaiting sentence.

Will JESUS say you can come into heaven, or will he turn us away and say,

“I never knew you.”

Those words will cut like a knife. You don’t want to be wone of those so-called Christians who do good works like it is paying their way into heaven. That is not the way into heaven. Only JESUS is the way. Period.

Our GOD is still patient.

GOD has been warning us of our mistakes, through natural disasters, sickness, wars and rumors of wars, hate crimes and the consequences of them too. Warning us to repent from what we do to each other, ourselves and the earth that we live in.

Let us fall on our knees before GOD and pray. Pray for the whole world and of the creation in it. I mean all creation too from the earth to the humans walking around in it. Waste not one moment of time for we do not know when it will be the last moment before JESUS returns.

Then our GOD won’t be patient when HE sends JESUS then! It will be done. The Heavenly court will be in session.

I say all of this because I don’t want to see anyone choose to go to hell. Heaven is were GOD is. Where pure peace and love is. No more pain, or crying. Where we can look into the eyes of our beloved FATHER GOD and HIS son JESUS for all eternity long!

Peace and blessings.

Does Leprosy Turn Your Skin White Like Vitiligo?

Hello everyone.

When listening to a sermon by the late pastor Stephen Darby, he explained that leprosy was not what people assumed it was in the Bible. He said to read the Bible for yourself.

I needed to know. For with understanding of what the singer Michael Jackson had, it was Vitiligo. The same thing that Naaman in the Bible had, too.

When reading the Bible about the servant Gehazi, I was thinking about how deceptive he was to get valuables from the man that was afflicted with was was called leprosy.

What exactly was that disease really? To compare it with a leopard that has spots of dark and light.

Leopard.

I had always thought that this was what it was because they used the leopard to describe what it looked like to others.

Looking into it further, there is a disease where people can lose their fingers or become disfigured in other parts of their body. Called today “Hansens Disease”.

But that is what it was called leprosy, to become disfigured that way. Losing a nose , fingers toes or whatever.

Vitiligo is what happened to Naaman, who came to the prophet Elisha to be healed. That makes more sense when you read about this affliction Naaman needed healing for.

2 Kings 5:20-27 KJV

20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the Lord liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.

21 So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?

22 And he said, All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.

23 And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him.

24 And when he came to the tower, he took them from their hand, and bestowed them in the house: and he let the men go, and they departed.

25 But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.

26 And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?

27 The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow

What is leprosy called nowadays?

According to Google:

Leprosy is now called Hansen’s disease. The term Hansen’s disease is often used because of the stigma associated with the word “leprosy”. 

Explanation 

  • Hansen’s disease is a chronic infectious disease caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium leprae.
  • It affects the skin, nerves, eyes, and lining of the nose.
  • Symptoms can include blindness, loss of eyebrows, and nose disfigurement.
  • It’s a rare disease that doesn’t spread easily to others.
  • Treatment is very effective.

History

  • Dr. Gerhard H.A. Hansen discovered leprosy in Norway in 1873. 
  • Leprosy was once thought to be highly contagious and was treated with mercury. 
  • Chaulmoogra tree oil was used topically to manage leprosy for centuries.ย 

When we read the word of GOD,ย  we need to research it, too. Science backs up the word of GOD. In more ways than one.
