It is good you have such a positive attitude about winging it…and putting your trust in God.<BR/><BR/>I love starry nights. I also love moon-lit nights that cast shadows everywhere. I am always awed by the brightness of the moon. I love taking a walk on such a night or very early on such a morning (around 4 a.m.). <BR/><BR/>I will pray for your trip. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Love, Hope :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314773719745348.post-34718420802704526252008-12-18T00:56:00.000-06:002008-12-18T00:56:00.000-06:00Ernestine,I would have to say my most exciting is ...Ernestine,<BR/><BR/>I would have to say my most exciting is telling others how to find God.

I pray every day that you will be as blessed as I have been through this wonderful Biblical submission. God is so good to us in His plans for us, but that wicked devil seeks to destroy us.<BR/><BR/>1 Peter 5:8 <BR/>Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:<BR/><BR/>But you can cast all your care upon him; for he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7<BR/><BR/>…they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.<BR/>The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. <BR/>Psalm 34: 10 & 15<BR/><BR/>Satan wants us to believe submission is degrading, but that is where we will find true joy. <BR/><BR/>Sunny showed me the KEY: <BR/>“Don't allow Satan to overwhelm you with feeling that YOU have to do everything....b/c you don't. All you have to do is mortify your sin nature and allow Christ to fill you with His holy and pure love.”<BR/><BR/>1 John 1:4-5<BR/>And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. <BR/>This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. <BR/><BR/>Dear Father, Please bless your precious Dawn today, in Jesus’ name. Amen<BR/><BR/>Love you, Dawn!<BR/>ErnestineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314773719745348.post-12390230251008482502008-10-27T13:14:00.000-05:002008-10-27T13:14:00.000-05:00Thank you for visiting my blog!

If the Lord wills it to change, it will. I think too, God wants US to do the changing.

People don't like it when we say bad things in our life are because of our sin. I still think my car accident and all the aches and pains that came with it were becasue of my sin, but my sister in law gets really upset that I think that way. She says in one breath everything is caused by God for <I>some</I> reason and then in the next breath says "it was just an accident". Whatever. I feel like garbage and so I choose to look inward. Paul said his problems were to keep him humble, didn't he? Maybe it wasn't Paul. My lawyer for the accident said that about his cerebal paulsy (is that how it's spelled?)

If how we live shows we are saved or unsaved, when any of us compare ourselves to CHrist, none of us can possibly be shown by our life as being saved. Even if you outwardly are perfect, your thoughts are full of sin as well. Salvation is knowledge, not action...I don't agree with you post.<BR/>This is froma bible commentary I have :<BR/><BR/>Certainly we are free from rules and regulations, but we are not free to sin. Christian liberty is never license. Christian liberty does not mean I am free to do what I please, but that I have been freed to do what pleases Christ. Furthermore, “liberty to sin” is really the worst kind of slavery! We must not be brought under the power of sin (Rom. 6). “But,” you say, “if God gave us these physical appetites, certainly He wants us to use them.” That’s right: use them, but not abuse them. Your body is the Lord’s; and if you live in sin, that sin will destroy you and God will someday judge you.<BR/><BR/>He will judge your sin, but not send you ever to hel for them--no matter what they are, He died for them all. <BR/>I had a list of all the carnal Christians in the bible but now I can't find the list. Some that come to my head would be Solomon, Job, Annanias and Saphira, Peter, even Paul said in Romans 7 how he sins so much and hates his sin...Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079989571191266715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314773719745348.post-52892948463511583122008-04-30T12:54:00.000-05:002008-04-30T12:54:00.000-05:00What you just said in your post "Salvation!" has b...What you just said in your post "Salvation!" has been on my mind for a long time. I had been calling it "some magic prayer" as well. I agree with you 110%. Anything worth having takes hard work, there are always conditions to everything, including salvation. From what I have seen for far too many years coming from the pulpits and superstar preachers, is that you must get saved to avoid hell. They are making the main focus avoiding hell, not loving and serving God. They are leading people to believe that they are glory bound by simply saying a 20 second prayer, (doesn't really matter if you believe or not). That's that, "don't ever have to worry about that again". "Oh yes, and I have a license to sin now that I am "saved." It's sad, but I see this taught, followed and believed so often.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314773719745348.post-61300816866265328892008-03-06T14:24:00.000-06:002008-03-06T14:24:00.000-06:00lol I used to drink SO much soda and now that I "...lol I used to drink SO much soda and now that I "quit" when I have one, they taste like a cup of sugar water! yuck! lolRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079989571191266715noreply@blogger.com
