Unity



  • When we examine the body of Christ. You find the exact opposite of this verse manifesting within it. You find discord, gossip, people offending and people being offended. Some would say, oh that is what being in intimate relationship is like. I would beg to differ. The closest people to me, those I love I would never want to offend them though I know I do or have them be offended with me. I love them so I seek to keep peace and unity with them even if they irritate me or make me angry. Sometimes I air my frustration and other times I dismiss it and forgive because of my love for them. Dear Ones this Grace and love we give to those around us is the same Grace and love we are to show each other as members of the body. Yet what you find in some bodies is slander, gossip, discord and a lack of unity. People who go around sowing this kind of disunity do not understand that this is the example you are bestowing to all who know. This is the testimony of Christ you are manifesting. Is this what you want people to think of the body of Christ and in turn Jesus? I hope not! Our Redeemer has cleanse us from all unrighteousness without requiring us to jump through hoops or meet any requirements. We are to walk as forgiven people giving glory and Honor to the one who gave it all. I pray you do not forsake this message! Examine your heart and see if you seek unity and peace in all your relationships?!? Be at peace with God and man! Thank you for journeying with me. #dailyscriptureandthoughts

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Hello all...

Hello my Siesta(Beth Moore's word for Sisters-Love it)  I have decided to start this online bible Blog Study that Preacher's Wife  wrote. It has already started my wheels turning in my mind and heart. The very first question:  Are there any circumstances or relationships in your life where you can see God has intentionally placed you? Yes- many! A few grow heavy in my heart! What do you perceive may be at stake if you do or do not speak out for Him? The person's soul will be lost for eternity. They will not walk with me into the gates of heaven and I will spend the rest of my eternal life knowning I did nothing, said nothing and do not do what God intended me to do. Can you Honestly describe yourself as a woman with a "yes" in her spirit? No I can not say I can- I would like to fool myself and those around you to say I am but when it comes down to it.. I have failed! If not what keeps you from this? FEAR- fear that the person will see my words as judgement and no...

What is the meaning of family or extended family to you?

One of the things about moving to Texas that we were "excited" about was the thought of having "all the family" here.(actually extended family) Grandma,grandpa,  Sam's brothers, and sister are all here.  Well we have been here almost 6 months now. I guess the newness of us being here has worn off, because we do not receive  phone calls, text messages, or emails of;" what are you all doing this weekend?"  " Do you want to get together?"  It has turned out to be just like any other time we lived in close vicinity of each other. We have become special occasion, holiday only relations.  Why is that?  How does that happen?  Is it because we live such separate lives?   Our lives are very uneventful. We spend them each day just surviving that day. We do not think of tomorrow- (that is scriptural) We do not take pleasure in vain things. I hate to shop. I love to sew. I hate going to the beauty parlor. All those things that "woman" are suppo...
