What’s the one luxury you can’t live without?

In this day and age, there are places on this planet that do not like us Christian people. Places where we are not allowed to be openly a Christian or openly pray.

Never thought that in my time, I would hear about people giving up their lives as a fo now. In countries, I will hear about village people being harmed horriblely or put to death.

In this country, we do have the luxury of openly saying you are a Christian, to go to Church and worship

Reading the word of GOD even by yourself and getting caught doing so by unbelievers in others countries can be fatal.

The following text in blue is from this site. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/countries-where-christianity-is-illegal

Religious freedom is not a given in many parts of the world. According to the Pew Research Center, more than 80% of the world’s governments interfered with their citizens’ religious worship in some way in 2019. Furthermore, although Christianity is the world’s largest religion, Christians are in no way immune to persecution. For example, Islamic countries often view other religions as heretical, an affront to Allah, which is considered an extremely serious crime. Communist countries, by comparison, often outlaw all religion—which Karl Marx famously deemed the “opiate of the masses”—preferring that the government be the only authority guiding people’s concept of fairness and one’s role in society.

Illegal versus persecuted

Whether or not Christianity is legal or illegal in a given country can be difficult to determine. There are two main reasons for this confusion. First, the laws themselves can be convoluted and often appear to contradict themselves. What’s more, the regimes that are most likely to restrict freedom of religion are the same regimes that are more likely to be secretive and/or deceptive about differences between the letter of the law and its real-world implementation.

Be thankful you are a Christian here in this country today. And continue to pray to keep this luxury forever.

Peace and blessings!❤

What are the most important things needed to live a good life?

Peace. Peace with GOD. Peace with all mankind. It’s a hope and prayer, too. To be in unity and harmony.

The gift and blessings GOD gives us mankind. The freedom to make it into heaven. JESUS is the way. Giving us a good life because HE is in our lives.

To avoid negative people and things. These things distract you from the goodness of GOD. From being in tune with righteousness that can only come from FATHER GOD.

When we people are hard-headed and choose not to listen to GOD, we will do the opposite of what falls into the place of GOD’S design for a good life.

I guess you can call it a bad life because whatever is the opposite of good is bad. But if you are in the chosen bad life and do not like mess you are in what do you do about?

If you feel lonely and alone and seek after people to make you happy, that won’t work. People will leave you for one reason or another. Depending on people, they never will give you the satisfaction you need.

Only GOD will and can. HE gave us the HOLY Trinity! This is explained well here.

Trinity, in Christian doctrine, the unity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three persons in one Godhead. The doctrine of the Trinity is considered to be one of the central Christian affirmations about God. It is rooted in the fact that God came to meet Christians in a threefold figure: (1) as Creator, Lord of the history of salvation, Father, and Judge, as revealed in the Old Testament; (2) as the Lord who, in the incarnated figure of Jesus Christ, lived among human beings and was present in their midst as the “Resurrected One”; and (3) as the Holy Spirit, whom they experienced as the helper or intercessor in the power of the new life.

Begin your day with GOD, prayer, and seeking continuously after GOD,and JESUS. Salvation is the only way into heaven by JESUS.

Let the good life begin!

Peace and blessings ❤️

Who do you spend the most time with?

Time is precious.

GOD didn’t tell each of us how many years HE has given us all that I know of. So we as HIS creation

Talking to FATHER GOD is so comforting because you know he is listening and can truly see and know what you are going through. HE feels your heartfelt desire.

As I sit outside enjoying the sunshine from doing some gardening, my husband is working on a stubborn bolt around the area of the bearings. It is rusty from the salt used here in New York. He had been working on it for a week. Determined to get the task of removing that bolt.

Depending on GOD for help, he had called aloud for help and walked away from it. GOD heard him, and now he was able to remove it.

Just having GOD ,JESUS , I there encouraged him.

So as you think about it, we were all together there. Spending time together. Getting things done.

Couldn’t do any of it without the HOLY TRINITY!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Describe your dream chocolate bar.

I love a good milk chocolate candy bar. Not as much as a dark chocolate. And I do like the gourmet ones made with nuts, dried fruit , and Carmel.

Fancy, cute shapes made in bite-sized or bar sizes, too. The smell of chocolate being made is as good as eating almost!

So, with all of the varieties, one could even just think of making there is one major drawback to such sweetness.

It will need to be made with absolutely no, allergens, chemicals , aftertaste, no heartburn, and most of all , no CALORIES!😃😃😃. Yes, calorie free!

That would mean you would gain absolutely no weight from eating it.

But that would have to be a dream for all of that. Unless we make it into heaven by GOD’S grace and JESUS, and there will be that chocolate bar we were dreaming of. We we will gain weight in reality. 😔😔😔

So I will just only dream for now. 😴😴😴

List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?

When I first saw my beloved Grandmother’s Bible, I was fascinated by it. Her Bible was well worn and well loved looking. She kept it near her on the nightstand next to her bed. She knew about salvation and scripture. I could see and feel the connection of faith my Grandmommy had with GOD and HIS SON JESUS with the HOLY SPIRIT.

She brought up her children in a Christian way of life as best as she could and her children’s children too. (I am one of that generation!😀)

My beloved Aunt was an artist. Self-taught She was very good at it. The picture of this book is one that she had of many.

They showed the first pencil sketch to the water color finish painting. And I watched my Aunt draw line for line. Wanting to draw like she did

My Mom took music and voice lessons. So I looked at the notes on the sheet music 🎼 that made no sense to me at the age I was of, I guess, around 2 or 3. I knew they weren’t letters. They were too wigglely looking ! My Mother has a blessed voice. She still sings some today at home and not professionally, though.

Looked at it, trying to figure it out. But as my Mother explained what they were, then I wanted to play an instrument.

My Mother knew how to read sheet music back then. Right now today, she is just enjoying her pear and quiet.

But the most important Book I have is the Bible. For it is the instruction book for a GODLY life!

Peace and blessings ❤️

What fears have you overcome and how?

I would have to think about this . I can see being mindful to not do anything foolish that could cause harm. But with spiritual discernment about all things, we are in communication with GOD. 😀. We listen to GOD!

Because of my faith, I can’t think of any fear really that I had to overcome. We can get warned of things to avoid by discernment. We then listen to the HOLY.

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)

See, GOD didn’t give us the element of fear for we are to depend on HIM 100%. Trust the one who created us. Whose understanding is beyond our human understanding period

GOD knows the heart of all mankind. Yes ALL! GOD knows all angles to all situations and what each heart came into the situations that are put before us. So GOD is ready before we even begin to stop anything that could harm us in anyway!🙂

This is why we trust in our beloved FATHER GOD, HIS SON JESUS, and the HOLYGhost! With them protecting, guiding us, and giving us peace. The peace of a calm spirit, knowing you are safe and sound. Patience as we wait on the LORD GOD 🙏🏾

Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life.

I am happy to say that I have more than one thing that gives me joy. GOD is first. Then, all of the countung all of the blessings that HE gives is pure joy. Like this:

1. Going to Walmart and finding a pretty jacket in my size that was on clearance for half price. THEN, at checkout, it was even marked down half again! Making it almost 1/4 th the original price!

2. Finding out you paid a bill ahead of time and making you ahead in your bills with breathing room.

3. Having a holiday and day off from work and then getting caught up with things at home that needed to get done. When you work all week you don’t have time to do certain chores.

Just sitting with your feet in your pool. Having quiet time to yourself. Enjoying the weather on a June Sunday afternoon 😎.

I will say there are many more blessings we have in life from GOD that when we sit down to think about it, it is a simple to do joy!

Peace and blessings ❤️

How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen?

For me to unwind from a hard days work in the office or a hard day of fun in the garden, I need some peace and quiet. Working outside is therapeutic, but it is physical. And that produces sweat.

So after a few hours of digging, shifting and pulling wheel barrels about. The need to relax is real. You see your accomplishments of the and feel good about it.

Life is too short. You need to just relax and enjoy it without hurting anyone or yourself .having a high calorie treat once inawhile is okay. Having it every day is a no-no.

The combo of enjoying your garden, the nice weather, and scripture is what does it for me with my sweetheart ❤️

Finding peace and unwinding in our Bible study.

What quality do you value most in a friend?

What I value most in my friends is when they will drop what they are doing and pray with me when I need it. And of course I will do the same.

There is a bond being with prayerful people. You share the body of Christ JESUS. You have the same peaceful spirit. You love each other as how you love yourself. ❤️

Therefore, you trust each other. Because you both will put GOD first in all you do. With that mindset, putting GOD first, you are living and listening to the wisdom that GOD is giving you to do.

That is the basis of a good relationship, be it a friend, family, or spouse. GOD, the FATHER, GOD, the son, and the HOLY Ghost is your guide!

Being on one accord, like minded in agreement to one purpose in life. To be in heaven with the Creator GOD the FATHER, HIS son JESUS, and the HOLY Ghost!

Peace and blessings ❤️

What jobs have you had?

Being a messenger of GODS word is not easy. When you want to save people from the lies they are told from the devil and his workers, it is hard

People who love sin take it as a personal attack of meanness towards them. Even if you say to them as sweetly and calmly as how JESUS would say. “Go and sin no more.”

Those who feel the sin is part of them like a leg. It will feel like an attack on their leg. Safe, too.

Anf to remain calm when people yell or cuss as how JESUS had fone is awesome. To be a street preacher is hard for you feel no one is listening. Even if you use #tictok #Instagram , #Facebook, or #YouTube as your pulpit. You may feel no one is listening. But there is.

Doing this blog for my FATHER GOD is rewarding when you know people are reading it and are encouraged. Because you have gained another sister or brother in the body of Christ who you will meet in heaven when it is time!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Stay blessed people 🙏🏾 and keep your faith, and stay in prayer. Stay in contact with our beloved FATHER GOD and HIS SON JESUS at all times!

Peace and blessings ❤️
