Compassion for others.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

2 corinthians

Do we as Christians who love GOD and his son have compassion as we should for others?

Com·pas·sion

kəmˈpaSHən/
noun
  1. sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others.
    “the victims should be treated with compassion”
    synonyms: pity, sympathy, empathy, fellow feeling, care, concern, solicitude, sensitivity, warmth, love, tenderness, mercy, leniency, tolerance, kindness, humanity, charity

    “have you no compassion for a fellow human being?”

     

    I find it hurtful to see people who say they love the LORD say and do things for whatever reason to other people just because they do not like how they are living. As though being a Christian makes them better than everyone else who is not. That is totally wrong as how I see it.

    The only man to walk the face of the earth who was without any sin, who was good enough to be the sacrifice for all mankind was our beloved JESUS the son of GOD the FATHER of all heaven and earth!

    We humans need to share the gift of compassion to our fellow humans and not to look down on the other who is suffering or lost without faith in GOD. We need to let GOD be the rightful judge of all things. It is HIS heaven we seek to get in to when our souls leave our bodies! It is GOD’s house, HIS dwelling, HIS rules to HIS heaven! No humans own it, so therefore GOD has the RIGHT to let who HE wants into HIS HOUSE!

    No different than who you would , or would’nt want in your house to keep the peace if you are living a GODLY life.

    Everyone will die, some will make it into heaven and even more will make it into hell just from how we choose to live right now. It is our choice as who we will follow after….GOD and HIS beloved son JESUS or satan and his minions.

    When we meet people whose lifestyle is not biblically correct by our Christian faith, but they are not rude with you and are respectful give them the same respect as they give you. Have a JESUS heart, do talk to them as how JESUS did with the woman at the well. Lovingly with a gentle heart. Please read John chapter 4. This is something that when I read this as a child thought it was cool, even more so now with better understanding!

    John Chapter 4

    1When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,

    2(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)

    3He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.

    4And he must needs go through Samaria.

    5Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

    6Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.

    7There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

    8(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)

    9Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

    10Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

    11The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

    12Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

    13Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

    14But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

    15The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

    16Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

    17The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:

    18For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.

    19The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

    20Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

    21Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

    22Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.

    23But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

    24God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

    25The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

    26Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

    27And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?

    28The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,

    29Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?

    30Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

    31In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.

    32But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.

    33Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat?

    34Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

    35Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.

    36And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.

    37And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.

    38I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.

    39And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.

    40So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.

    41And many more believed because of his own word;

    42And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.

    43Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.

    44For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.

    45Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.

    46So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.

    47When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

    48Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.

    49The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.

    50Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.

    51And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth.

    52Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

    53So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.

    54This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.

    To have this patience and understanding of ones heart is what we all need, for there will be less strife in one’s life if this is done. It would be like a contagious happy healthy “disease” flowing from one together. But in the real world this wont happen as long as people turn from GOD.

    I am friends with those who are Gay ,Lesbian, and have sex outside of marriage because if they want to talk about the LORD I am there for them. They do not push the lifestyle they are in on me as to support it because they know me and do know that would be a conflict of interest as to my chosen lifestyle. I was not raised by my Mother to be any other way but to be kind to all people. And my Mother is a GODLY woman. So is my Grandmother who taught my Mom to be too. Why? becasue it is what JESUS would do, be kind to all.

    If there are those of you who see it as wrong, think about this. JESUS walked the earth and was totally without sin as a man. Now if JESUS did that to us, where would we be  and how would w be saved?

    We wouldn’t and would have no one we could turn to us for compassion. Compassion to care about us to pull us up out of the misery that we are in. To lead us in the direction we need to go in, how to get through the issues of the day, to get the comfort we need when in pain or distress.

    Remember not all people see that the lifestyle they choose is wrong when it is outside of the circle or faith in GOD and HIS son JESUS. This is outside of our realm. So trying to talk to someone to change because you want to help them is not giving them the choice to make this move on their own. It needs to come from their heart. All you need to do is to pray for everyone you know from yourself , family, friends nd enemies too.

    We all need the compassion 24/7 for we all are sinners. We all have faith on different levels. We all need JESUS!

     

    May you all get a blessing from the reading and sharing of this blog to others. Be blessed and never stressed.

     

    Peace!

Stress relief.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

urban garden 2

 

All of us need some peace and quiet, to be away from stress. Stress is something that no one asks for or needs in their life. It is not something that feels good, for it can cause serious health issues. It can happen to any of us at any given time. And at any age from child to adult.

2 Thessalonians 3:16

“Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.” 

King James Version (KJV)

 

We need find a quiet place where we can put GOD 1st in it and have a calm spirit about us as we de-stress. It should be where you can be one on one with our GOD. Yes a quiet time reading GOD’s word is one for me along with, long walks on a nice day, working in the garden, working on crafts and my artwork. Quiet times. My mind is at peace when I am alone with no distractions at all from people or negative things.

 

1 Thessalonians 4:11 King James Version (KJV)

11 And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;

King James Version (KJV)

Even writing this blog and sharing my thoughts is another form of de-stressing my mind because I am praising GOD for what HE has given me my whole life long. I want to share with you a way if you are stressed over anything to go to the LORD 1st and let HIM guide your through it.

Hebrews 13:15

“By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” 

King James Version (KJV)

As I am alone in my quiet space while hubby is doing his puttering about the house, I am listening to GOD. To what HE is saying to me about what is troubling me, letting me know HE is there. I need GOD with me at all times. This is a fallen world and many people in it do not realize what they are doing to themselves or other people with the things they do or say. And then some people who know all well what they are doing.

When I am in my garden, I think about the fact that GOD gave me this garden! That GOD is allowing me to grow plants on HIS earth for food or even just to look at for their beauty. To be able to enjoy the food that GOD has designed for us to eat , that has such a fresh and wonderful taste. Nothing is like it!

Genesis 1:29

“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which isthe fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” 

King James Version (KJV)

Getting the soil on to my hands is calming touching what our GOD has made! Putting the seeds into the soil as the soil will give it life with the help of GOD. Watching them grow and this is a miracle in it self too! A little tiny seed like a grape seed or tomato seed can grow into a plant bearing fruit after its own kind will always amaze me. and this gives me a calming spirit because I know this is how our GOD planned things to be.

 

Psalm 46:10 King James Version (KJV)

10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

King James Version (KJV)

When I am outside enjoying nature, there are things in the Bible that will go with what I see happening in the soil, the animals and how you will see new baby calves bouncing about in the spring, the weather changing and the earth waking up to see the sun.

GOD is good. 100% plus and all of the time!

With being in awe of GODS power and seeing it for myself and being able to smell roses, taste corn, touch the grass beneath my feet, hear the water in the creek, and see bunnies running about in the field! Praise GOD, for HE shows us the good things in life everyday.

 

Philippians 4:13

“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” 

King James Version (KJV)

Stress is a distraction and we all need to know this is not something our loving FATHER GOD wants us to dwell on or have. Even those of us with great levels of faith, will have some stress such as our pastors concerned about the congregation!

If your stress comes from people pray with a full heart at all times. Avoid them as best as you can at all times. If it comes from a situation that you can walk away from, walk away and still pray. If it is a situation you can not, pray for a way that GOD will lead you righteously to get away from it or it from you. Peace is what we need at all times.

2 Timothy 1:7

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 

King James Version (KJV)

tiny seed on finger

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Bible-Verses-About-Power/

Fear not. Give your issues to the LORD in faith, GOD sees the whole picture and knows how to fix it fairly so that it is the best for us all. I have met people as well as you have that seem to have on grudge with the whole world, jealous, and mean towards those they are jealous of.  You can not show kindness to them, for they seem to get angry when you do. So this is why I say let GOD deal with them. HE knows your heart and theirs and will do what is right by you and them.

Galatians 6:9 King James Version (KJV)

9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

                                                      King James Version (KJV)

 

urban garden 1

Life is way too short to have to deal with the negative issues some people bring with them from their own life and household into the world of other people. Find a happy place to be alone with the LORD. There you will be able to talk with the FATHER GOD and tell HIM what is on your heart. For those lost souls will not be there with you when you do, and you will have the comfort of GOD and HIS son JESUS with you!

Psalms 91:11

“For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.” 

King James Version (KJV)

It is so wonderful to know that GOD and HIS son JESUS is always with us. 24/7, 365 days including leap year.  Be blessed and never stressed….stay in prayer…..stay close to GOD. We do not know when our saviour will return to take us with HIM.  And we need to be ready with our minds off of  worldly distractions.

 

Peace!

Being biased and Christian don’t mix

fork in the road 2018

Choose  GOD’s loving way or your way of the world. We can not be a bigot and say we love GOD and HIS son JESUS!!!

You know,  for those who do read my blog know I try to encourage people to lean towards GOD the FATHER. In my blogs I aim to say something that will reach a soul to reach out to seek after GOD and His son JESUS.

I at times will be surprised when I get encouraged too from kind people who have read my messages and were encouraged. This makes me feel good even it is one beautiful person.

But last weekend was not what I had expected. See, there are many Christians out there that do love all people as it is instructed in the Bible. Then you have those who claim to love GOD and his son JESUS and not like what they may call “those people”. That can mean anyone not like themselves of any color, place of origin or faith. They want nothing to do with outsiders because they consider them evil and unapproachable. Like those that live in the middle east, or any place in the world that peope do not fit into a white standard. Some white Christians have issues with people like this. They will box “them” all together and say mean, awful, stereotypical things. And this is wrong.

I ran into that sort of thing and it was very upsetting. What makes them assume this is what JESUS would want us to do? How can we tell those anywhere on GODS planet about salvation if you hate them so? This is not a JESUS filled heart. Not at all.

I am still saddened by what these so-called Christians were saying about people unlike themselves , going by their fruit….they were not at all anyone I could say believed in GOD. It was that scary. I can see why some people will say that Christians are not really good people.

Matthew 7:15-20 New King James Version (NKJV)

You Will Know Them by Their Fruits

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits.Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

 

New King James Version (NKJV)

Many people want to go to heaven but don’t want to listen to what our GOD is saying with love about loving our fellow man. This means to me we need to show ourselves friendly to ALL people. No matter what they choose to wear, where they come from or the type of lifestyle they choose to live.

Let GOD be the judge of what fate HE will choose. I know may people with different lifestyles. They are polite to me, and we respect each other as how it should be. They know I am a JESUS follower. We are all sinners, every man woman and child so we should never cast the first stone on anyone. Like I say, we have to be there for them if want to be saved and know what it means to be saved. And be there for them if they choose to be saved on their journey of faith.

Romans 10:9

“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” 

As we are there for them if they choose to learn about JESUS and salvation, we will be giving them a comforting talk to help them. Even those who are saved and maybe going through a rough time right now. Love them as how the word says. Do this with a pure heart. Being good and doing your best to be good takes all that is in you with the help of JESUS.

1 John Chapter 4

20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

Many people will disagree with talking to different people, but I do feel as a Christian we will need to use discernment with people and see if they are willing to talk or listen to you. If you say it lovingly and respectful to them and never condemning them like you are judging they will listen. Never judge. Because if you think you are better you are 100% wrong. As I say we are all sinners and we all need JESUS.

Jesus died for all mankind, every man , woman , and child that walked the face of GOD’s earth since Adam and Eve so that we ALL will be saved from our sins!

May you all get a blessing from reading these posts and sharing them as well.

 

Peace!

people connected by fairh holding hands

When I see pictures of people holding hands and doing things like this for a good cause like peace…I wonder about faith in each person there. I got inspired by this to talk about Christians and unity as one family in the body of JESUS Christ.

It is good to know that we who are believers are connected by faith to one body and that is of Christ JESUS. When you meet a true believer, as yourself they are your brother or sister in Christ. We need to remember this in our everyday lives for those who seek to destroy all who love JESUS is out there and causing all kinds of evil all around us. Psalm 37 clearly speaks of these kinds of people. Please click on the link below to read Psalm 37.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+37&version=KJV

 

When we are connected in spirit we need to remember to look out for each other for the devil will distract any of GOD’s children away from HIM if he can. There is power in unity with those who love GOD and HIS son JESUS.

 

1 Corinthians 1:10 King James Version (KJV)

10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

 

We should pray for each other and give each other loving encouragement at all times. Put your brother or sister in the LORD 1st, and those that hate the LORD pray for them. For you know that those that seek to make you look bad by saying bad things about you or steal from you or what ever it is they seek to do that will hurt you are not of the LORD. They are the followers of satan and seek to do you or others like you and me in. Some are subtle or what is commonly called “micro aggressive”. And while others are bold and quite open about it ready to fight. But remember no matter what they seek to do, GOD is watching and has the last laugh. ALWAYS. GOD can not be defeated!

1 John 3:17

17 But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him?

 

English Standard Version

1 Timothy 5:8

8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
prayer and unity
The Bible is the most awesome thing to read in its purest form to me as it help me to make it through the day! The people pf the Bible had gone through the same issues we have right now today in our lives . But without the technology , the sins are the same and people are not much different.
Ephesians chapter 4 is cool to read. It is encouraging to me. Paul wrote this chapter in the book of Ephesians.
Paul
In the Epistle to the Romans, Paul writes from the point of view of the demonstration of the righteousness of God—his covenant faithfulness and saving justice—in the gospel; the author of Ephesians writes from the perspective of union with Christ, who is the head of the true church.

Ephesians 4 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

4 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 that we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 but speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 from whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, 18 having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: 19 who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness. 20 But ye have not so learned Christ; 21 if so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: 22 that ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 24 and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. 26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: 27 neither give place to the devil. 28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth. 29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. 30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 32 and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.

 

Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
In our own ways , we should be the ones to spread the good news to every ear that will listen to what we have to say about salvation!

Romans 10:9 New International Version (NIV)

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

New International Version (NIV)
No one should want to see any person they know go to hell. We should want to tell them that they can be saved through faith and accepting JESUS openly by their confession from the mouth. It is very important that people understand this so they too can be a member of the family of believers.  I just call it sharing the joy. Once they hear about it pray for them. Some will not listen at first, but if we plant the seed let GOD make the increase to make it grow within them.
Nothing wrong with having a big family who all love GOD!

Unity in the body of Christ is powerful and wonderful. It is a peaceful calm spirit we all can share and enjoy. Pray for all of your enemies and haters. Only GOD has the power to do HIS true and fair will with these people. Just remember whose family you belong to, and you will never be alone. The body of Christ Jesus our savior of our very souls. AMEN!

May all of you who do read my blog and share it too be blessed and never stressed! Have a blessed day, all day where ever you may go on GOD’s earth!

Peace!

Psalm 8:6-9 King James Version (KJV)

6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:

7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;

8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

9 O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

 

When we have struggles those are the times when the evil one will want you to feel that it is just you going through a rough situation. That no one cares or will care. You may think at the time everyone else is living a good life and has no issues. And you are alone.

Not so. The evil one has lied to you again. It happens to all life.

A few days ago my husband and I were outside in our veggie garden checking to see if things were okay. As we were doing so, we heard some birds sounding aggressive and flapping around in a tree. We thought that a couple of robins were having a tiff with each other over a nest.  Not seeing the whole picture, we tried to calm things down by distracting them. We didn’t want to see them hurt each other.

But then because off the trees leaves being so thick, we did not see what was the cause of our bird friends getting upset. A very large black crow came out of the tree where the robins were swooping around like a very large plane with a baby bird in its beak! The two robins were trying to get the crow out of its nest! As the crow was flying away with the mother and fathers baby bird they were right behind this crow. We were shocked at the size of this invading crow and what it had done.

This is something I have not seen before except on “animal planet” tv show.

And when we have had a test of faith during day at work, or school, or where ever you may be on GODS earth, just remember this is not heaven and we all need peace. So when you see something like this in the animal kingdom, you may then say your situation was not nearly as bad as that!

Thank the one and only true living GOD  that it is not. For to have a situation that the robins was in, was not good. That crow was watching those robins to take away their joy, their child at the first chance it had to do so. Most human evil doers think the same way. They will watch all of us righteous people to steal their joy and say bad and evil things to us and about us when we are not around them. New babes in the LORD to those that have been their whole life long. It doe not matter what level of faith you are at right now, you will have those days of being tested. No one wants them.

But GOD sees all of these things happening and looks out for us all. The animals do not have the same level of communication to GOD as we humans do. We talk to GOD and HIS son JESUS who hear our cries and concerns when we pray.

The robin tho, is still taken care of even thru this upset it went through. GOD supplies the food and shelter it needs all of its life. Yes there are some things that they go through, so do we.

Matthew 6:26-34 New King James Version (NKJV)

26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 Which of you by worrying can add one [a]cubit to his[b]stature?

28 “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not [c]arrayed like one of these. 30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Proverbs_18-10

I can only trust in the LORD to be safe, for there is no other safe place. I do not know for sure what animals have with the relationship with GOD. But I do know as humans we can make the right choice in following the LORD and leaving all the “crows” with HIM and let GOD deal with them as only HE can fairly.

GOD is all-powerful, and these tests of faith are just what they are. They too shall pass. GOD is bigger than any issue we may have here on earth. I will tell you because I learned (still am growing in faith each day) to leave these issues of the world with GOD. I have more peace knowing so. No one can tell you they know it all and are no longer a sinner because they are believers. It is not so, for we all learn and grow with faith each day. You will see you have more faith than you did maybe as a teenager, becasue with prayer and going through the day GOD gives you more wisdom.

It is so good to know you have GOD and HIS son JESUS to lean on and find comfort in your whole life long!

 

 

2-Timothy_1-7

 

Stay in prayer and be blessed and never stressed knowing you are not alone. You and all who love the LORD GOD and HIS son JESUS have comfort in his strong tower and truth!

May you all be blessed and never stressed, protected and safe under GODS wings as you read and share my blog to encourage others as you are encouraged!

Peace!

Ministry on wheels!

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

 

1st RV I dreamed ofOur ministry for GOD on wheels!

 

We have a “go fund me” account called “Christian Ministry” that we are doing our best to promote.

The issues we have is that as soon as we mention what the plans to other people and what we intend to do, and are doing it is not always well received. Many people are not faithful believers and seem sceptical.  Some who are christians give no encouragement, no donations, no sharing the information with anyone who could help with donations.

See , a lot has happened since the last time I posted anything. Some things were a test of faith more than others. And I tell you if GOD was not there with me and husband we would not be here. We depend on GOD for all things, ALL things! He pulled us up so we can get going on HIS ministry.

GOD pulled my husband through his temporary sickness and gave him a new life of good health! He was THAT sick were we thought him to pass on to JESUS because of it. He had asked me not to mention what it was, but a simple procedure made him well with GOD leading the doctors as to what had to be done.

2004 rv 2

 

I had a dream about a white RV. I was not those that are as big or bigger than a tour bus. It was this size of RV in the 1st picture. So when we saw that one I was shocked as to find out that it was for sale! Not nearly as expensive as the ones I have been seeing before at $95,000. These two are under $4,000. A big difference for the fund-raiser. Still not able to afford them yet. I mean Yet. For I know GOD will make a way for us to o this. There on this RV I can make things to give to people from cards, dolls, small scarfs….drawings anything that will encourage them to follow JESUS right there in the RV!

We could travel to Senior Citizen centers to sing for them and give them little gifts too that will make them smile and know they care loved by GOD. Children too in hospitals. Where ever GOD will lead us.

2004 rv

I know there are many out there that are not truthful in what they are going to do with the money. And many will say they are not like that. You will have to pray over this for your self and let GOD put it upon your heart if this is what you need to do.

Recently I have had a dream about an RV similar to the one that is pictured here in this post. Same color and style. My husband and I want to have a singing ministry and travel about where we are led by FATHER  GOD to get to and give praise to GOD. GOD having us to travel to places HE called us to go to.

We have puppets we have accumulated through time, and some will need some adjustments to them to make things work. Testing out video and voice with just a camera phone, making the voice for the puppets.

These are all old puppets that we have re-named, one was given to us we call “B.J”. who is the first one we got.

BJ the puppet

Some of you may have had one of these as a kid after I researched to see what kind of puppet it was. But that is okay as long as we can get the word out. A lot of these puppets need the mouth to open and close correctly and have a new rubber band inside of its head some how. I was able to fix one, but they all don’t have the rubber band in it the same way.

So I am working on that. I am hoping to get some shoes for them all. Most puppets are very expensive to buy and over $200.00 for some really well made ones with the device in them to make the eyes move to give expressions. We don’t need those right now. We will work with what we have.

Puppet family for ministry

As we progress along I will continue to post with GODS help. For 2017 was so hectic I barely had time to sleep. Each one of these puppets can be made useable and we will have he puppet ministry in no time.

 

 

To the greatest Father of all!

Ephesians_4-6

Ephesians 4:6

 

3Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 7But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

My love for you FATHER GOD is from my heart , mind soul and strength!

You have looked after me my loved ones our whole lives from birth to the end. And when JESUS let me into heaven we will be able to see your loving face!

I feel your presence with me at all times, guiding me through my day, giving me the comfort that I need to go through life in peace and joy in my heart . Even with those who are around me seek to do harm to me, you are there to stop them in their tracks using their own weapons on them!

I can feel your love for me FATHER GOD at all times, like a comforting loving hug. I can only tell you how I feel and you can know in my heart how much I do love you. I can not give you diamonds, for you made them. I can not give you gold, for you made it. All that is in the earth was made by you. All I can do is to love and praise you as your loving child can.

You are the one and only true living GOD! There is no other, or will be.

Thank you FATHER GOD for all that you have blessed me with my whole life long and for all of my loved ones as well too. Thank you. thank you thank you. All of the blessings you have given me, are always needed and welcomed. So many you give to me and my loved ones are more precious than any thing any man can assume because they can only come from you. You answer our prayers and has never let us in the hands of evil doers.

Thank you for the key to heaven through your son JESUS because you love me so and all of us who do love you and your son JESUS.

When I think about all of the wonderful, beautiful things in the world you have crested, the food, air , birds, life and all that you have given all of mankind I am in awe. {raise you FATHER GOD forever!

Happy FATHERS DAYS to the best ever father a child could ever have their whole life long.

AMEN!

The Holy formula for a good life.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

 

 

 

 

Jesus christ cloud 2018

 

This formula is well-known by many, and never applied or tried by many as well. But I am going to share what I have learned with you and you can “beef” it up with all of the praise you see fit from your study if the word. Pretty basic really.

The formula is pretty easy to read as it is written in the Bible by the creator of all heaven and earth. It can be found in any KJV of the Bible to the NIV version as well. It is just a matter of putting it all together as you start your days before heading out of the door.

  • Pray to GOD to GOD the FATHER.

When we start our day, say good morning to the FATHER GOD by voice or in writing to let HIM know you do love, trust and believe in HIM. If you start your day with a cup of coffee, water or juice do so with the FATHER that gave you another day of life to live. For with out GOD blessing you to see this day , you would not have made it. Love GOD as how HE loves you. HE is your Holy FATHER in heaven watching over you.

 

  • Reading scripture.

This  will help you keep the closeness and comfort with GOD all through the day. Keeping the words of GOD in your mind. And will aid in giving you the calm feelings, strength against temptations, how to deal with negative people. People who seem to aim at those of us who believe in FATHER GOD and HIS son JESUS. The Bible is for all mankind. I am not one that will actually follow a denomination even though I was born into being a Baptist. I feel that is dividing mankind in to how we should worship the one and only true living GOD.  And to acknowledge JESUS as HIS only begotten son. Reading the scripture tells you just how much GOD and JESUS loves us is encouraging. There you will read about the guide tools, especially in the New testament.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Bible-Verses-About-How-God-Wants-Us-To-Live/

Matthew Chapter 22

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

 

  • Applying he guidelines from the guide tool….the Bible.

 

Matthew 6:33

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

 

It is very hard to be good, easy to be bad as I have mentioned in another post. But with the guide tool it is a proven good path to follow. You will see all of the great men of the Bible go through the same types of issues that we suffer with right now in this day. Great men like King David and the life he did live while still being a man of GOD.

If you ever come across a person who will say, “I thought you were a Christian….you did this or that!” Or ” See, they said they were a Christian and they did this or that!” Those who turn from GOD will always watch us Christians in order to make  point to others as an excuse as to why they turn from GOD because of what they see others do in error. Just a means of putting us down so they can put down our faith and say things such as “this is why I don’t go to church (or pray and believe in GOD). The evil one has turned them around so they do not see what harm they are doing to themselves.

Job 2:9 King James Version (KJV)

9 Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die.

What Jobs wife said was similar to what those who want you to turn away from our loving GOD will say as well. Stay away from such nonsense and just pray for them. It is not good to associate with them at all. GOD is good!

Applying the guidelines to your life will make life better for you as they will show you how to go about life in peace. You will be able to avoid the consequences of what evil temptations will do to you if you do what you choose….and not what GOD is showing us all how to live.

  • Living an abundant life. 

    Isaiah 58:11

    “And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.”

    King James Version (KJV)

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Bible-Verses-About-Abundant-Life/

 

King David was a good man. He was human like the rest of us. Made mistakes like the rest of us. But he still had kept his faith in GOD!. I say all of this as to let you know we all make mistakes , but we need to keep our faith and trust in GOD at all times. Read bout him to see what I am saying.

http://www.aboutbibleprophecy.com/p13.htm

http://oll.libertyfund.org/titles/david-the-book-of-psalms-kjv

We can live with peace and understanding in all we do when we depend on GOD to lead us. It can apply to all of the relationships in life from friendships , family , marriage , school mates, and with co-workers as well. You need to be equally yoked in mind and faith with people. For the one who does not love GOD will try to turn you away from GOD too. Your marriage will always have issues of one is faithful and the other is faithless.

It is better to have one or two really good friends that will pray with you at any given time that to have friends that all they think about is un GODLY sex, drugs, lying, cheating, stealing or just about doing anything that GOD will not approve … of avoid them. They have chosen the path they need and wanted to choose so let them be. They know about GOD already, but do not want to listen to GOD and HIS instructions for a good life. If they want to change they will, but still pray for them.

  • Study the word with true believers .

I have met many people who know every word that is in the Bible backwards and forwards. And would pray as though they really did mean what thy were saying. No offense to people like Trump , but if you ever watched him praying or in a church he looked awkward there as though he had to fake the faith. Well this is what I mean. The fruit he bears is what he really is like. What he says and does to other people is not right when they do not agree with him.

2 Timothy 2:15 King James Version (KJV)

15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth

 

2 Corinthians 6:14 –

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

 

I pray this will encourage you all. Have a blessed day and life. Let you always have peace and GOD with you to guide your steps where evr you maybe. Be blessed for resding the word and sharing it with others to encourage them as well.

Peace!

Getting a good nights sleep.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs 2 Comments

 

sleeping baby 2018

Rest.

Trust.

Sleep.

Peace.

Comfort.

Exodus 33:14

“And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.”

When you see a sleeping baby you see the peacefulness in his or her face. You see this in your baby knowing you have done all you can to make sure that they will be comfortable and safe while sleeping. Your child depends on you. This is what a good parent will do for their child always. To take care of your child before you take care of yourself. Making a sacrifice to ensure their safety and comfort at all times.

You are now able to get a good sleep yourself now as long as your baby is well and secure and asleep. But as a good parent when you pray at night for GOD to watch over all of your household along with your baby, so you too will sleep soundly. Because you have trusted in the Lord GOD to watch over you giving you comfort as well.

All through the day we need to pray to GOD. In minds as we quietly communicate with  HIM on a constant basis. You will find that when you do, and praise GOD for all of the blessings HE gives to you so lovingly perfect is awesome! I have had conversations with the LORD many times over things I just did not understand what was going on, and HE did give me peace and loving instruction. Many times waiting on HIM to lead the way and I have never been disappointed. It could be as simple as to what dozen eggs to pick out in the store to buy….to which way to turn on the road. Everything that pertains to your safety and comfort.

2 Corinthians 1:3-5 King James Version (KJV)

3 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;

4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

 

Communication with the LORD GOD and HIS son Jesus is the key. For they will never let you down. NEVER! If a door is closed in a direction you wanted to go, there is a reason for this. We as people can never see the whole picture to anything we do. Like an ant headed for your foot, not knowing they could be stepped on as you walk by not seeing it.  We are led away from such disasters of doom when we trust in GOD and HIS beloved son JESUS.

When we come to the LORD as a child, following HIM willingly, trusting in HIM we are doing a good thing. We are just humans, and all are sinners. GOD is perfect and without sin. When we lean on the LORD in full trust we can sleep soundly like a baby. Always. Living right and aiming to for what is right all day and all night by how GOD sees fit. For we know we can trust in the LORD for all things.

Proverbs 3:24

“When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.”

King James Version (KJV)

GOD will guide you. JESUS will too and they both love all of those of us who do follow GODs laws as best as we humanly can. HOLY spirits make a holy team protecting us as some will call the Holy Trinity. Remember. The flesh is weak. We need the support and love from GOD and HIS beloved son to get going and keep going.

When you got to lay down and get your rest for the night, pray on you knees as a humble servant of GOD and to give all of your concerns to the holy FATHER GOD in heaven who does see the whole picture. Thank GOD for JESUS and all that was done by JESUS thru GOD’s  loving will to save us all from hell. No one besides the holy FATHER GOD and JESUS could love us that much. Remember who is in charge of heaven. Find peace in this knowing that JESUS made the way for us to be there when it is our time because we have accepted JESUS as our savior. So now we can sleep and rest in peace knowing we will be there in heaven where ours souls will be at rest.

Cool!

Praising GOD with my inner heart.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs 6 Comments

peaceful thought with GOD 2018

I just want to give thanks and praise GOD today! For HIS blessings are mighty! I want to share my praise and joy with you all!

Verses in giving thanks to GOD.

https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/Bible-Verses-About-Thanking-God/

1 Thessalonians 5:18

 

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

 

Praising GOD without saying it out loud at all times or anytime. Walking down the street with a smile that you didn’t know you had, until someone will say you are always smiling! Peaceful thoughts with the FATHER, and with His son JESUS at any time and at all times you may want. No one has to know what you are doing if you dont want to eighter! It is your free time with the LORD.

Many times in my life I have done this and still do, because of the love and trust I do have for GOD the Father and His beloved son. I will praise GOD walking. Or sitting outside at lunch time when the sun is out. Making all of the land bright and beautiful!  I know GOD created all of the earth and the beauty in it.

Lunch time outside enjoying the weather when it is over with the snow and cold weather is awesome, and healing! I am grateful for the wonderful change.

Outside you will see the wonderful colors of life coming up through the ground to meet the suns warming rays. If you are a gardener you plant seeds. You see the seeds that you have held in your hand to plant into your garden grow into vegetable to eat or beautiful flowers to admire it beauty. Just a blessing to be able to enjoy what GOD has given you.

There are many people of all ages out there in the world that need help with getting up out of the bed to do just that. So if we can, help them with a Jesus heart when we can. Take your elders out to enjoy the earth and see the new life that has come up from sleeping in the ground. They will give you joy when you see them happy enjoying being outside and with your company!

Where I live right now, the warmer weather seems to go fast and the winter last longer. Yes but this is however the Lord GOD sees fit for all over the world.

And I want to praise  GOD for what HE has done for me. Allowing me to grow plants to eat and enjoy them when He sees fit to grow them. Meet up with people I have not seen since last year about this time when it got warm. Just to be able to sit back and smile in the sunshine and to thank GOD for it.

Having my special time with GOD. My solitude with GOD and his son. When ever I need to they are there with me 24/7. They my best friends who love me more than anyone else ever can in this world. Even though I have the best Mom, family, husband and few close friends in the world. They are human and can only give a human Godly love the best they can. But a love coming directly from the FATHER GOD is supreme because it is a perfect, unconditional GODLY love!

This is what gives me such peaceful thoughts, knowing that I will be in heaven with GOD , His son Jesus and all of the saints that are there right now and see them all face to face.

I pray for you all to have the same peaceful thoughts I do if not better! For it is just so awesome when you have this wonderful communication with the HOLY SPIRIT!

May you all have a blessed, safe, enjoyable Sunday and holiday! Stay in prayer with your loved ones and hug them all.

Peace!
