The Evil of Two and the Love of One

Evil takes two people to come to be. One to entertain the evil mind, and one to allow it to come to pass. Everyone has evil possibilities. In fact to God, everyone has evil in them, meaning everyone is capable of evil. To God, lying is evil, smoking is evil, cheating is evil, goading another to anger is evil. Quite honestly, everyone has committed at least one evil, and in every instance, someone else allowed it to happen. The evil of two.

Evil cannot work alone and be successful. God has the power and might to be able to overcome ALL things on His own. Gee, I wonder which is more powerful.....Yes, that was rhetorical. I am snarky like that sometimes. This all powerful being, God, gave us freewill to choose the direction our journeys  should take. Why would God, who is all powerful and could simply will us into submission, allow us to choose?

God is Love. Love encompasses all things. Love overcomes all things, and in Love is freedom. God doesn't want people, His masterpiece, to return His love out of obligation. Instead, He wants us to choose to come to Him on our own; out of our own needs, out of our own desires, out of our own willfully chosen devotion. That's true devotion. He's so devoted to us, that He's willing to allow us to choose to follow other than Him. He KNOWS few will follow and many will turn away, but still He allows it. I heard that the true measure of a man's integrity is in how he treats those who can do nothing to help him. I think that's a bit skewed....to me a true measure of man's integrity is in how we treat enemies. Do we hate them or love them as God loved us before we knew Him. Our thoughts become actions, and our actions define our integrity, so choose wisely.

Talk to your creator, however He is known to you. If you're unsure, ask Him and He will show Himself to you in a way you can see. Show an enemy love....(it really shakes 'em up and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside), But most of all......GO BE PHYSICAL TODAY!!! Tomorrow never comes.......
Peace!!

Back To The Basics

Image
Ok so my minor melt down is past. I think the stress of everything just got to me, but I have spent time in prayer, regrouped and now, all better. Back to the task at hand......Healing... I learned this healing process will be a long one. I guess since it took me 37 years to get here, expecting to be healed in a few weeks or months was pretty foolish thinking. I have to change my entire way of thinking about my health overall, not just my back. Processed foods...bad...fresh fruits and veggies..good. That sounds like an elementary way to look at things, but it's what I have to do, get back to the basics of life. I couldn't put a garden in this spring, but I am already planning my gardens for next year. The only hitch is, we are selling our house, and I am not sure where we will be living, how much space I will have to plant, or even if I will have enough room to plant. If not, patio containers, here I come. My pain is no where near what it was, so the water is helping, and

A Message to the Hurting and Confused

Image
I wrote this quite a while back, but it needs repeating every so often...... Be encouraged!! This is only a season. A stepping stone, and if you need it to be......a learning or teaching moment. Satan attacks us in ways we never think or imagine possible. He thinks if he can take away that which is most important to us (here on Earth), or that if he attacks When things are taken away, then he can cause us confusion. Why is this happening? How can it be fixed? CAN it be fixed? Is all lost? Know, my friends, this is not of God. 1 Corinthians 14:33 (New King James Version) 33 For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. God loves you and wants you to know how much He wants to help you through this, no matter what decisions you've made to this point. 2 Timothy 1:7 (New King James Version)7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Confusion cause

Round Peg in a Square World

Image
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2 nkjv   I have always felt like a square peg in a round hole. In school I was too book-smart to be any good for anything else. In sports I didn't have the self confidence to succeed. In life I am too blunt, and I tend to offend people. Whatever the reason, I just don't fit. I used to seek my place in this world. It finally hit me (the renewing of my mind). After too many years of seeking, I now know why I fit into nature more than anything else. I am not a square peg in a round hole. I am a round peg in a square world.  Life is round. It's cylindrical, cyclical, it never ends. Nature is round; a round planet in a solar system that is revolutionary. Plants sprout, grow, produce, die, and then the seed carries on. To really get anywhere in the world you need something round....wheels come to m
