Retail


Wow... Hello everyone. I hope the lord has blessed you with happiness today. Love and compassion.
The picture above is a pic from my job. We are in holiday mode and I'm trying to remember what it's like to deal with people in holiday mode. You would be so surprise to see how grown people act in this festive time of the year.
I am not talking about Thanksgiving either. I am talking about christmas.
Christmas that I remember is about the birth of our saviour Jesus , so why all the attitude and animosity for nothing. That's what's wrong in this world today. I am become a better person the more I search for Christ and I understand that not all people feel that way this is just my opinion and its the choice I made but, it's working for me. So why not...
Try loving those who are the most ridiculous People in the world that you can encounter....

Sunday is it traditional to go to church or do you enjoy it?

          Today I was not going to church.
  Sorry where are my manners. Hello how are you? Hope you are in great spirit even though your life might feel like it is falling apart. At least that is how I feel sometimes.
 As I was saying prior, I felt like not going to church today. I normally feel real excited and want to go. I feel like if I do not go I am going to miss a message that probably was meant for me. Nonetheless I went but not to mine. Not the one I am a member to. I realize then that it did not matter the church that we went to ,when you want a message you will receive it. It was a great thing to go. I was so disappointed that I thought by  not going to my church I was going to miss something, when in actuality it did not matter at all where I went to as long as I was ready to receive the message and want to learn and apply it to my daily living, I will never miss a message or a lesson. I have been for so long debating with people about the fact that people in church should not matter to you because you go to receive the message and understanding and not really associated with others, but the more I learn about Jesus, I realized that this is not true. You do need to be able to go and worship in a place were you can love and respect everyone because that was Jesus's message. If this is what I want to learn then I do need to be in a place where I am allow to do just that.....Not in a place of gossip and hate and people that enjoy to hurt one another. My friend told me once, church people hurt people. I did not understand it at first until I  went through a small encounter of it myself.  Then I understood. See people see a church as a place were all the wrong in the world stops for the moment and God is being given the glory for all he has done..If you can not see the difference from the outside in then that church is not doing its job of putting god first in that house for people that need to come there for comfort. They need a safe place to go to and what more safer place than in the house of the Lord.......

Black Friday Shopping

  Hello everyone. I hope all had a great Thanksgiving next to those whom you love and are grateful to have them by your side. I had spend the day with friends. It had snow a little here in Pa and I thought well we are stuck home , but it stop and became rain. So we decided to go. Had a great time and then went to another friends home. We had two events. It was a real nice day after all. Could not really enjoy to the fullest because I had to be at work at 3 in the morning for black friday. What a crazy day it truly is. People running around like maniacs and camping out so early in the morning. I guess its all the hype that gets people so amped up about going out so early. Trying to find bargains that they truly could have found the day before.........

Thursday...

 Today was a nice day. Hello everyone hope God has kept you strong today. How spirited can we be if we do not pray? This is a true fact. I was  strongly believe that all can be done if you just pray and add a little faith to this...
 I spend the day home today. A little cleaning. Slept in a little and had a great day. I went to lunch with my girlfriend and came home. I felt like watching the story of Moses and the ten commandments. .I have been feeling like I want to get more understanding of the bible and the people that had all this faith and heard god speak to them.

Beauty only God can create


Good morning my brothers and sisters. I am so blessed this morning I woke up to be able to talk about it. There is a big difference between telling someone you loved them and showing them. That is how I feel about our heavenly father. He provides all your needs but yet he has to wait around and see if you are ready to love him back. That's crap... Let me make something clearer , if you had to pay for air to breath how much would you pay. If you had to pay just to live what would you give. These are very simple questions that I do not understand how we can be confuse and not do for the one that provides me with the main necessity in life. That is life. Today you should just say thank you father,lord, god ,master for all you do for me. How much of a burden we have been as children and still he loves us enough to send his son for the remission of our sins...
Sorry to bother you guys early but, I'm truly meaning what I say. I love the lord . I thank the lord for all he is and has done in my life. May god be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Church

 Hello everyone. Before I lay down to sleep I wanted to share a few words with you. Hope your Sunday was as beautiful as mine . It was a gorgeous day today. It was not cold and the sun was out so bright.  I had a wonderful day at church and even shed some tears to hear my husband sing. A song that reminded me of his dad. He has now pass on but, it was still an emotional moment. I just thought if he could have seen his son be in church singing like this , how proud would he have been. He was a Pastor at one time but, the devil tempted him and felt short from the glory of God at the end. Well my reason for this short blog this evening is because I want to quote you something I read about forgiveness. " When Jesus told us to pray for forgiveness of our debts as we forgive our own debtors, he knew who would be the one to pay the debt. As he would hang on the cross he would say," It is finished"....The debt is paid! There are some facts that will never changed. One fact is that you are forgiven. If you are in Christ, when he sees you , your sins are covered-- he doesn't see them. He sees you better than you see yourself. And that is a glorious fact. of your life."

Sign


Extra early good morning to everyone. It is about 4:30 am and I'm on my commuter bus ready to go to work. Not that I want to be there. But still glad that I have a job. So many unemployed this Christmas and holiday season. As much as it breaks my heart that a lot do not have this season . It hurts me more to know that some children won't have either.
I found out something very generous from a church that I do not go to. They actually have a link on their site if you are in need of a turkey dinner basket and you live in the pocono's area, then you can call or send an email to them and they will help you get a basket for a turkey meal. This is one if the main reasons I love church. The love that you should be giving to one another in time if need and in time of good. We should always be wanting to give and help. Even if it is our last pennies. They mean a lot to someone else. Offer a plate of food or a hug. A shoulder and s ear for those who need it. You would be surprise how far these things go and what a difference it makes in yours and their lives. After all is this not the way of the Christian? All Jesus Christ did for us I think in my opinion is the least we can do.
Please I beg you from the bottom if my heart support a church this season in helping families that through no fault of their own are not able to give their children a season. Go to Amy church and ask if there is s funding for Christmas that you can donate. They not only want monetary but they would probably appreciate a toy instead. In this church I know even though I do not belong to their congregation , I have volunteer to do a shoebox of different toys to send to a child. I thought it to be a wonderful idea. You send basic things like toothpaste , toothbrush, soap ,pencils, pens, notepads, tissues, markers, crayons, you know those little puzzle, etc .... These are just examples if the things that we take for granted and others find it a gift a treat.
The saying has always been it is better to give than to receive, I would not have it any other way. I will always try to give my last dollar if I could. I am able to breath and see and hear and walk and what more can I ask from my heavenly father so why not try to continue his message of love and prosperity . The website for that church is www.innovationchurch.org . I'm sure you can go to any local churches and they will have some kind of program there. Hope you all have a blessed day and may god keep you in love and spirit as the day goes by . Please pray for me as I for you my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Long day

Hello everyone. Hope you are on good spirits. The weather here in pa is a little cold but not as cold as it's gonna get... So we are still enjoying decent weather...it has not snow or iced in a while and we are so happy. Although it is very cold. I have now realized that I leave for work in the dark and come home in the dark. Daylight saving time is definitely not my friend. But I enjoy the extra sleep I got on sunday.

 I have a few things to get of my chest this day. First I want to say to those people that do not go to church but do acknowledge God and Jesus for who they are in your life sometimes that is all you need. You are not wrong. I have been going to church for a little over 2 years now and I can see why it is that people would rather worship and praise God i their own time and in their own homes.

 I have come to the conclusion that Church People Hurt People. You see a lot of times you have people that have been in church much longer than yourself and feel that they know more. That may be true but, in my case I have acknowledge God my whole life. I always knew the right from wrong and I always had put God in front of all. Earthly people today run the church and when you loose sight of the original pact that when you open a church you made with God , you condemn yourself. You become a money hungry church.This is what had happen to my last church I was going to. The church had held an ordination and the following sunday the Pastor of the church said in service that the congregation and their guests were cheap people.

 This did not go very well with me. Since when do God need money, He can do it all or have we forgotten. Granted we need finances to pay for a building to be able to go and worship in but do say that God needs your money because he doesn't. He needs your love and trust and faith. He wants you to accept and love one another. He has blessings in store for us if we would just stop the fighting. I mean a spiritual fight. The one you know when you are wrong but you do it anyway. Why do we do this to ourselves? We buried ourselves all the time. In my new church there are a few people that have an authority issue going on. I pray as I always try before I do things because is if something is really troubling you and you pray with the most sincere heart you will get the answer that you are seeking.So I pray like I was saying and I became less worry about someone bossing me around and reminded myself why I do go to church. I go to learn more about God . I go to get a message. An interpretation of the bible that I can not get myself. I go to say thank you for keeping me another day and not letting me go. For allowing me to be your daughter even though we are sinful people. In my testimony on sundayI profess to the church that I love everyone. I truly meant that. For the first time in a long time I was ablre to say something and mean it. I get ridicule a lot at work because I am always happy and very few times you see my upset even though it is 7 in the morning and the weather might be horrible. I tell everyone is the love of Jesus that is in me...

I read this in a book . The book is called" GOD"S INSPIRATIONAL PROMISE BOOK" by Max Lucado.

"I am frightened by our ability in America to convince ourselves that we don't need Jesus. We can amass fortunes, we can get degrees, we can own our house all on our own. And yet, there's a certain affluence that we can attain when we become poverty-stricken-- a certain humility that comes with trials, that bring us face to face with the Saviour."
  And it goes to say that
" God exalts humility. When God works in our lives, helping us to become humble, he gives us a permanent joy: humility gives us a joy that cannot be taken away."

   Pray today... ANd love

Communion


Hello everyone. Hope you have a great day. I went to church today for it was communion Sunday. It's observe usually the first of the month. The first sunday that is. I learn the significant of the communion. I have always been taught that unless you did not sin you were not allowed to partake of communion. However today I was reminded of the last supper and the real meaning and how important the last supper was to the world. We are keeping a reminder of the sacrifice that Jesus did for us. We were wash by the blood of Jesus therefore we are faultless Christians through Christ. I heard a song that was on the radio and normally I would not have listen to this kind of music but the lyrics caught me ear. It says my best friend gave me the best advice, each day is a gift and not a given right... Think about today if you knew that tommorow was your last day how would you live it. How good would you feel to be in front of god......

Bible.

There was once a time when I read the bible and had no idea what in the world I was reading. Not understanding the bible was one of the reason's why I never had the urge to go to church.. I had always been against forcing religion on my children when I had a hard time with it myself...
Now I have been reading more and found bible's that were interpreted in our English today. So I now understand what I am reading and some of it saddens me to know that we are not that much different even after having a miracle walk this earth...

Leading Ladies Dinner

   Good Day to all,
 I am so sorry that I have not really done a good post in a while. Justtruly have been very busy and tired. The holidays are starting up at work and my boby is trying to catch up with it.
   In any event, I had time last sunday to go and worship with another church . The name of it was called innovation and it was a total different experience than what I was a custom to. It was truly a different experience altogether. I will add a link to their website so that maybe you can see what I was talking about. I  have never been in a church that did not have the cross , instead they have a cube and the cube represents perfection.
  I was invited to go to the Leading Lady dinner that they had for women to fellowship together. I thought what a great idea this would be considering I would be among christian women and would discuss everyday life . It was not like that but, we worship together and sang together and ate together. I actually felt comfortable. It gave me an idea to invite the ladies in my church over to fellowship at my home and discuss women issues that pertain to us and our walk with God.
