GOD’s word. Food for the hungry soul!

As we know how to feed the body with good food, we also know how to feed the soul with GOD’s good words and encouragement from HOS words in the Bible!

Good morning, good afternoon and good evening to you all in “your neck of the woods!”

GOD is a good GOD, patient, loving, fair, perfect, one of a kind and our heavenly FATHER to all who love HIM. GOD is perfectly cool!

GOD shows us how loving HE is by reading and hearing HIS words from the HOLY Bible. At work I will listen to the bible through this channel that will play the King James Version of the Bible read by an actor by the name Alexander Scourby,

The comfort of listening to GOD’s word.

I will read the word with my husband at night with prayer. I will say that when you begin to read the word, you will see the ways of the world then with those who did not want to listen to GOD is the same sin they did then as now. And this is where the comfort comes in.

But the best example of living right to the very end is JESUS. He was good from day one until he gave up the ghost on the cross for all of us sinners here on earth who walked the face of GOD’s earth.

John Chapter 6

50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

We get the bread! When reading the word, the soul does not get hungry. We are fed with the nourishment and power of the word of GOD. Being able to withstand the nonsense of the worlds antics.

John Chapter 6

55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

We get the meat! More power and nourishment to live by and keep our faith in check at all times! And we will get full from the words truth. We need that to keep us going for the ways of the world can wear you out.

John 4:14

“But 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.”

King James Version (KJV)

Jesus is the living water, we will never thirst again for we will have everlasting life. JESUS will be with us until the end of the earth,

When you are in need of nourishment , and are thirsty for the love and attention that can only come from GOD and HIS beloved son JESUS….reach out for the Bible and read it for you soul to be fed with the HOLY spirit!

Fill your spirit with the meat, bread, water, and the fruit of the spirit. Tis is the best meal one will ever have.

Blessings to you all you have read the word of GOD and in this blog. Pass it forward so that others will receive a blessing as well too. Please do pass it forward! Thank you all for reading my blog and giving it a like and following it. For it is done for the love of GOD!

Peace!!

Holding on to the FATHERS hand.

Good day everyone! I do hope that you really are having a good day today. It has snowed some here and made the back yard with a thin covering of white.

I think about when I was a child and how things were when I could actually hold on to my parents hand and trust them to guide me through the paths we were taking without a second thought to the matter. Going across the street in front of the cars when all you can see is the grill on the front of the car ! Let alone how big the trucks looked back then.

I was happy to feel safe while holding on to their hands. They know how to manage through the cars as they stopped for the red light. But at the time as a small child, I though the cars stopped because they knew we wanted to get to the other side. I was too small to look up and see the stop lights! LOL!

Praise and glory be to GOD to have good parents that took care of me. Bless them.

But you know what? Our GOD is even way far better than our parents were as we were children because GOD is perfect. Unconditionally perfect at all times looking over us. Giving us what we need, because he knows what we need even before we do.

John 10:18

18 No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of My own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from My Father.”

It is so comforting to know how thr LORD GOD loves us all enought to have sent HIS only begotton son JESUS here on this earth to save us and be our savior.

As a child of GOD, I know I have a heavenly loving FATHER always guiding my steps as I go along the way. Holding me up even if I slip and fall…..HE will pick me up. Keep me safe.

Psalms 145:14

“The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.”

King James Version (KJV)

Isaiah 59  (KJV)

59 Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:

Psalm 32:8

8 I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will give you counsel and watch over you.  kjv

At times I will look up to the heavens to acknowledge that GOD is watching over me. And stretch up my hands as if I were a small child wanting to hold on to my ever loving FATHERS hand. Because I know HE is there watching over me. Always in all I do. I depend on GOD to guide me for HE knows what is on the road ahead of me and is keeping me safe and sound.

Praise and glory be to GOD ALMIGHTY now and for all of eternity long!

Have a blessed day and my you be blessed by the reading of our GODS word. Pass it forward to others so that they may read this blog and feel encouraged and to know that GOD loves them too!

Peace!

Being positive around negativity.

Picture is from this site: http://deliveranceministry.com.au/how-to-handle-court-legal-matters-per-proverbs-25/

Good day to you all. I do pray that you all are and will have a blessed day!

We all need to be and stay encouraged 24/7 by our every loving FATHER GOD. We can not even wake up to get our air to breathe each day without HIM.

Avoiding negative situations can be a test of faith. It is not easy as there are so many people who do not know the LORD, or who do but still struggle hard with being positive.

If we were to be alone or away from negative people for some time , we wou.d relax and enjoy the peace. Many of us can not do this for jobs, family , health or whatever else that may distract us from the LORD.

It takes some prayer and practice to be positive as humanly possible with the help of JESUS to lead the way. Shaking off the nonsense of the day, and just having that JESUS time to yourself in a nice quiet space. It could be in your car when you are on your breaks , or when you are the 1st one up in your busy household at your kitchen table with your Bible.

Positive words to incorporate in our thoughts and talks after reading the word and knowing scripture first and foremost are excellent. They will also have others to speak them too. Encouraging one another with compliments too.

As we with a JESUS heart we can lead others to JESUS who maynot truly know what to do to get to JESUS to be saved. They must confess the LORD JESUS as savior and let HIM into thier lives.

So with giving each other praise, encouragement, and the love of JESUS with us we will plant the “seed of faith” for those around us. And for GOD to nourish the seed into a flown grown born again saved soul.

Print this picture out to hang up and use to remember to keep on the right path to heaven.

Good morning everyone, I do pray that you will have a blessed, happy, and healthy day! For GOD is so loving and healing! Ask me how I know!

When I think about the people I am close to as in my loved ones, family, friends, and those I meet in passing I do hope that we will all meet up in heaven when it is time. I would not want to see anyone not make it in.

I do pray for my enemies and put them into my prayer list too. I am hoping to have all people in there I have met besides the people I have already met.

2 Peter 3:9

“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.”

King James Version (KJV)

I tell you all, that it is sad when you see people that will not come to JESUS for help for they assume that the sins they are in are so great that they cannot make it in. Let GOD decide that, just repent! The devil has lied to you long ENOUGH!

Read the Bible about one of the disciples named Paul. (aka Saul the persecutor and Saul or Tarsus) These links will explain in more detail. But when reading anything pertaining to the Bible always have your Bible to refer to. Such as the KJV and the NKJV. https://www.gotquestions.org/Saul-of-Tarsus.html , https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_the_Apostle , and https://www.whatchristianswanttoknow.com/apostle-paul-biography-and-profile/

Saul who was later known as Paul was a persecutor of the Church, doing evil to both Jew and Roman peoples. This man changed and became an Apostle . See, he was forgiven. He repented and was then know as Paul later on .

Accepting JESUS as savior, doing the good loving will of the LORD and repentance will get Paul into heaven and being told “Well done”.

“Well done!” I know I want to hear it. I know I want to see my loved ones who has crossed over there in heaven as well too. And for all of the people I know be it here online or face to face. It will be good when we meet in heaven in the presence of GOD the Almighty, JESUS and all of the Angels too.

Don’t listen to the lies of the devil any longer, listen to GOD and HIS ever loving son JESUS who speak the truth! Repent and do good. Read the Bible, for the people who repented from sin were the ones who wound up doing right by GOD. Showing us all that we can change and do GOD’S will!

Have a blessed day, pass it forward this blog post and the words of the Bible in it so others will be blessed too!

Peace!

Learning from innocent children a GODLY love.

Good day everyone, I do pray that you all will have a blessed day that the LORD GOD has made!

I want to share something with you all. I have seen these two videos and they are about as pure in heart as can be. What we can learn from these children is that when you have a friend or friends you share your love for them.

Children are innocent and if they are not influenced by the ways of the world who teach hate and all manner of evils will love one another with a GODLY innocent heart.

This is what is taken from us when we are out in the world…..going to school or work or whatever. That warm feeling of comfort is taken away with lies and other abuse. If it is in the home, then it was led into the home by lies and confusion.

Children need to be protected and loved, this is how they learn to be happy like these children are. In these videos when I saw them, they touched my heart. Some of you may have seen these already. But being me , I need to share this in case you have not.

Children being happy to see another child like them. The children see no difference in each other. They are very happy to see each other and to be with each other. That is how they are before the world steps in to take away that joy!

When I think about the what grown people do to each other , it is horrible. Looking at how the boys are running to each other with their arms out to greet each other is so very touching.

Bible verses related to Greeting Others from the (KJV)

1 Peter 5:14 – Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace [be] with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

1 Corinthians 1:10 – 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.

1 Thessalonians 5:14 – Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feeble minded, support the weak, be patient toward all [men].

1 Corinthians 16:20 – All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.

1 Corinthians 1:4 – I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

2 John 1:10 – If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into [your] house, neither bid him God speed:

If we remember as a child, that friend you loved and shared childhood memories that were good and had and adult intervene and pull you two apart, you will remember that. That was an ungodly thing to have happen.

These children are blessed because they are doing what GOD wants them to do. To get along with each other and to love each other as people who are like them. Listen to the videos and gain an understanding of what it is to have a friend you see no color in.

Have a blessed day, life in the LORD GOD. For we all want to be with GOD and HIS son JESUS when we die and live in heaven with them. Peace is a good thing. Share this post with others so they will pass it on and be blessed too.

Peace!


Thank you!

Envying will lead to evil.

http://candelariasilva.com/envy-or-not-i-say-not/

Good morning all! I do pray that you all will have a blessed day!

As we who love the LORD GOD and have accepted GOD’s son as our saviour of our very souls….we all need to give our “brothers and sisters in the LORD encouragement at all times. For we all need a kind word from those who have GOD in their heart! This is why I am doing this post today. To encourage those of us who love the LORD.

There are many people who will go out of their way to do evil to those of us who love GOD and HIS son JESUS just because of the hate that they have in their heart. Many don’t know what they are doing and many do. And they will do this evil without caing of the consequences.

People will envy another so that each time they lay eyes on the victim, they feel the need to get even. As though the person they envy has hurt them. The Bible is very clear about this sort of thing called envy.

James 3:16

“For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.”

When a person is jealous of another persons life they are not living their own life that GOD gave them. They persistently watching those who they feel are doing better than they are. Causing all kinds of trouble for themselves and the person to whom they are envious of. All because the envious person was not in the right mind and relationship with GOD.

It is not your fault about how they feel about you. They are the ones who will have to answer to GOD for what they do to you.

1 Peter Chapter 2

1 Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,

What we who love GOD go through dealing with unsaved people is not an easy task to get through. And we need JESUS to do so. Just like our enemies do,they need JESUS. And as well to accept JESUS in their heart. We all have souls and the flesh is weak and needing to have perfect guidance from our JESUS.

No way can any of us mankind fight off this spiritual battle alone between good and evil. JESUS had to come to earth the save us all. I have heard many people say that they have sinned too bad for GOD to save them. But GOD is very patient, and is giving you a chance to repent from the sins you are in. You are still alive today to read this, so this is another chance to repent and be saved.

Forget about what success you see others have, you don’t know how they got it. It could have been through doing evil things , you don’t know or have to. What GOD has for you is for you. Listen to GOD, and pay attention to your own life for GOD maybe trying to give you a blessing and you may miss it turning your head to see what others are doing with envy.

Romans 12:2

“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

King James Version (KJV)

Have a blessed day in the LORD GOD, thank GOD for JESUS . Share this blog with others and give GOD thanks for all that you have.

Peace.

Bible Tracts to encourage.

Getting my ideas together for a tract for Ephesians armor of GOD.

Hello everyone! I do pray that you all will have a blessed day! For this is another day that the LORD has made! YAY!

You know, I maybe an oddball to a lot of people just because I love GOD! But this is my choice to do so….and it makes be happier than anything else in the world as to believe in GOD and follow JESUS!

There are many people who love GOD so, and his beloved son JESUS that we want to share the joy! And some people through the loving word of GOD or in actions of caring. Some of us through illustrations. and Bible tracts. I do both. And what I have always liked was those #Jack Chick bible tracts. I liked the drawings, and the message. I was direct and to the point. As a child riding the subway with my parents there were people handing out these tracts. They are like little comic books….but not really comical. They were meant to lead people to the LORD and be saved.

Yes they were scary, but they are only scary if you do not know the LORD yet. And hated messages if you love the sin you are in, and not the LORD.

https://www.chick.com/information/article?id=how-to-witness&gclid=CjwKCAjwlovtBRBrEiwAG3XJ–cGOp8DvB8DFahJrqxjW3hioqdZFUU91rqbmEhoLENCPuC9JXHTbRoCVT8QAvD_BwE

But I was never able to keep one. I would take it to school or home and it would be worn out and lost .

Seeing how some people who did not like the Jack Chick.com tracts and I did, I wanted to know why they felt the way they did. They felt as though they were being condemned by those who felt they were “holier than thou.”

And I get that too. They are very direct and preach hard about heaven and hell through situations in life. But no one I know likes to be yelled at and having their finger wagging at them. That includes me. I have met women who felt I should not wear pants made for women (even on a cold day under a dress), or make-up to be well groomed, fashionable modest clothing So yeah. I have had my share of those types of Christians judging me too.

I want to show the love of JESUS in my tracts I am working on. I will share them with you once I am able to somehow save them in a PDF file. I feel I need to spread the love a JESUS in a way that is not pointing the finger , using scare tactics and yelling.

Drawings and more drawings. You know you have to be able to fit the drawing and the scripture on to one sheet of paper. and that can get tricky. You do not want the images or words to be cut off when working on the tract.

The first idea or design always takes me longer to do because it is an adjustment period. Re-figuring how things need to be. And always with the thought that you are doing this with our GOD in mind.

Before adding more detail to drawing.

As I get to the point where i will add some color, I will then need to be able to show you all the finished product of encouragement . It takes me longer than some others. I do have a full time job and other projects I do. So be patient and you will see the finished tract. I might not add color as how I see Jack Chick did not to his. I have to give it thoughtful prayer!

Have a blessed day. Stay in prayer! Avoid negative people who aim to disrespect you in all ways possible. They are distractions from keeping your eyes on the LORD.

Peace!

The Sketchbook Project #14 at the Brooklyn Art Library in New York.

Let GOD Lead You.

Wanting to try something different, this came to my attention from my child who loves to draw as much as  I do. This was fun to do making the theme plain and simple , let GOD lead you. I knew not many people would think to look into it from a secular organization. I did this for GOD, and not for me. I pray that anyone who will look at it will see there is one of us christians out there that will defiantly be proud to let it be known they love GOD and HIS beloved son JESUS.

More people have looked at it than I have expected though. But it is what GOD let happen to have those few have a seed planted. I had made the book to be digitalized so may can see it online at this link below….

Just starting the book. And the fun begins.

FASST Fine Arts Society Of The Southern Tier

Good morning or whatever time it is during the day for you all! I do pray you will all have a blessed day!

Being a Christian is hard work when you want to do what is right. Being a Christian artist is more of a challenge because many artists I meet in conversation are secular and do not have the same thoughts as I do. And when I meet one like in the organization I am a member of, it is like a breath of fresh air!

In the area mall the Fine Arts Society of the Southern Tier aka “FASST” I met up with Barbara and her brother Douglas as they were in the FASST store front as it were their turn to manage the store. As it turns out, she and her husband have a ministry as well!

She is an artist along with her brother and this was good to know. Not all of us artists feel we need to leave GOD out of our lives , and in this world when you want to do clean hearted drawings, it will make those who want to draw things not worth repeating.

People fascinate me because I care about their souls. I draw tracts, Biblical themes , portraits and couples. I do draw still life, but I would rather take photos of flowers to get the full impact of the color of how it is. That’s how I feel about it right now for what I draw, for I maybe led by the HOLY SPIRIT to draw something else.

I do love to enter my drawings in art events. These pictures you see are from last months showing in the FASST art gallery in Binghamton.

Native american man drawn from a photo. I prefer to draw from a photo so I can take my time drawing the subject.

Artwork was in one of the local newspapers too.

Always stay humble while sharing your work. I hope I always will be. My husband and other people say I am and that is good. Once you think you are better than others that’s when you are shown you are wrong. I strive to be good and better than I was the last time I drew anything. I draw better from realife and Photos. I am able to take my time and pay attention to the lines of the subject. For when I do quick sketches it will be for children’s books like I have done for the Brooklyn Arts Sketchbook Project. That will be in another blog with those pictures.

Here is a video of the lastest Art Gallery showing.

Very short video made of the Art Gallery showing for August 2019 to September 2019.

Once I become known in GODS timing I will be able to make a living from it as GOD sees fit. So with that being said, I am not there yet. But I will not give up for I depend on GOD to lead the way.

Ephesians 6:11

“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”

King James Version (KJV)

That’s what we need to do when we need to get through the nonsense of the world. I pray that in all I do, any blog post I do will encourage others to do GOD’s will in all that you do. For by faith is how we walk, with GOD and HIS beloved son JESUS giving a loving guidance at all times.

Peace!
