33 months ago

 

Psalm 90:12

King James Version

12 So teach us to number our days, 

that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

Do you know where you were, 33 months ago?

I sure did.

On April 2019, there was great distaste in my heart.

I didn't like the way I was living.

I wasn't proud of it.

I wanted change.

My work was not prospering either.

Truth be told, it was nil.

Nothing seemed to work.

It's as if GOD blocked EVERY aspect of my work.

Well, it was old work.

Sales, marketing, communications.

On field.

Online.

Old stuff.

Not being able to make sense of things, I kept praying.

What was His will?

What was His truth?

Please, can I have an answer, soon?

My finances were in a terrible state.

Surely, there was an answer somewhere.

What wasn't I getting?

What did I fail to perceive?

Why did my brain feel foggy?

What did God want me to know?

How was change to come about?

That April, I soul searched.

As if I hadn't been doing that regularly.

For decades.

Well, that April, I dove even deeper.

Finding no answer of my own, I raised my hands in surrender.

I was totally lost.

Kaput.

I'm out of answers.

I'm out of solutions.

I was in a desert.

Roaming around in circles.

My heart cried out to the LORD:

2 Chronicles 7:14

King James Version

14 If my people, 

which are called by my name, 

shall humble themselves, 

and pray, 

and seek my face, 

and turn from their wicked ways; 

then will I hear from heaven, 

and will forgive their sin, 

and will heal their land.

I wanted to change.

I wanted to have no part of sin.

I surrendered to God's will.

Seems to be all that God needed to know.

Did God show up right away?

Nope.

Took another five months wherein He led me to two prophetic videos.

Those videos woke me up, triggering something in me.

On the very same day, GOD made me born again.

Now, I knew the reason for roaming -- seeming aimlessly -- in the desert.

Only JESUS could lift the veil.

2 Corinthians 3:14

King James Version

14 But their minds were blinded: 

for until this day remaineth 

the same vail untaken away 

in the reading of the old testament; 

which vail is done away in Christ.

Those videos alerted me to something God wanted me to know.

The sinfulness of man.

The lust for things of the world.

The pride.

The ego.

Not seeking God.

Not believing in Jesus.

We're all part, and parcel, of those sins.

How man sinned in America, was echoed everywhere else.

No way could we keep sinning, without God enforcing justice.

On the very same day, He converted me.

I started reading the Bible.

Something I never did before.

Even as I'd read hundreds of books.

Boy, the words popped out like life!

I began reading the four gospels, wanting to know what Jesus said.

And I began taking notes of verses that called to me.

The first two verses in Genesis captivated me:

Genesis 1:1-2

King James Version

1 In the beginning 

God created the heaven and the earth.

2 And the earth was without form, 

and void; 

and darkness was upon the face of the deep. 

And the Spirit of God moved 

upon the face of the waters.

The dawn of a new day beckoned.

That paved the way for everything afterwards.

How EASY it was for me to UNDERSTAND God's WORD!

Where before, the Bible intimidated me, that day, it became clear as the light of day.

Of course, I eventually learned from Scripture, that it was the Holy Spirit that made things easy to understand.

Especially to those who had a childlike heart, which I've always had.

Then the books came.

And the blogs followed.

And I haven't stopped writing since.

As I wrote each article, SPIRIT helped me figure things out.

Leading me ever deeper into  Scripture.

It had to be GOD's WORD, or nothing.

It was my meditation, day and night.

Psalm 119:97

King James Version

97 O how love I thy law! 

it is my meditation all the day.

Most importantly, four months after God made me born again, Jesus called my attention to the Rapture on 14 January 2020.

It became the main basis, for all the writing I do.

That JESUS can have His faithful meet Him up in the air.

Any moment GOD chooses to.

And that I alert you to what SPIRIT told me:

"That all men may know the BIBLE, 

and live by it."

To know God, know the Bible.

For the Lord's day is at hand.

As apostle Peter said:

Acts 3:19

King James Version

19 Repent ye therefore, 

and be converted, 

that your sins may be blotted out, 

when the times of refreshing shall come 

from the presence of the Lord.

The veil has been lifted for me.

What about you?

Still living in a fog?

Time to wake up now.

Call upon GOD.

He will lead you to JESUS.

Through His SPIRIT.

Matthew 17:5

King James Version

5 While he yet spake, 

behold, 

a bright cloud overshadowed them: 

and behold a voice out of the cloud, 

which said, 

This is my beloved Son, 

in whom I am well pleased; 

hear ye him.

God Knows the Secrets of Your Heart

12 Then said he unto me, 

Fear not, Daniel: 

for from the first day 

that thou didst set thine heart to understand, 

and to chasten thyself before thy God, 

thy words were heard, 

and I am come for thy words.

Daniel 10:12 

King James Version

How interesting that I found this verse today, from a Chuck Missler video I started listening to.

"...for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard,"

That was exactly what I had been doing for a long time -- I've set my heart to know EVERYTHING about God, and in the process, I got to know Jesus more, and I am being instructed by the Holy Spirit each day, or after each prayer.

I am living testimony that God hears our prayers.

Through faith, patience, and perseverance -- and always paying attention, and listening to the "voice" of God -- we are finally heard, and answered.

Some days, the answers are instant.

Other days, even before I've finished a prayer, the answer's already there.

Oftentimes, the answers come in a dream, and I'm supposed to piece it all together.

It didn't all come together until God made me born again last year.

Only then did I began to understand the Triune God:

God, the FATHER,
God, the SON, and 
God, the HOLY SPIRIT.

In the asking, was the giving.

7 Ask, and it shall be given you; 

seek, and ye shall find; 

knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

8 For every one that asketh receiveth; 

and he that seeketh findeth; 

and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Matthew 7:7-8 (KJV)

God knew my heart, all the contents, the quality, or the lack of it.

But He saw the real desire to know Him, and I'm grateful Jesus -- through the Holy Spirit -- finally made things clear for me.

Now, I'm able to understand the Bible, letting it speak to me each time.

I honestly believe all you have to do to reach God, is to pray to Him however you know how.

Become childlike, and trusting in God.

Make time to listen.

God likes that very much!

What the World Needs the Most Now

4 The spirit of God hath made me, 

and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.

Job 33:4 

King James Version

When you have come to know God -- really know Him -- you will never be the same again.

When you are a follower of Jesus, the Son of God, you will love being led back to the FATHER.

And when you start learning from the Holy Spirit of God, you will marvel at the unerring knowledge that can only come from God.

When you reach this point in your life, having done all the "excavation" in your soul, you will experience the peace that can only come from the Holy Spirit -- the "Advocate", the "Teacher of All Things".

You will view the world as it really is, subject to the fallen one.

And yet your heart will be lifted up, knowing what you know about God, taking away all fear and confusion.

Without God, we are nothing.

With God, we have EVERYTHING.

People have forgotten that.

The world has been suffering for a very long time now, because people don't look to God anymore.

They have taken Him out of learning, out of institutions, out of government, out of homes, thinking God isn't needed anymore.

Of course, we all know who is responsible for that.

Anyone who buys into that lie, will never experience true love, success, nor peace.

Only God can give us those.

But the love, success, and peace God gives us, cannot ever be measured in world terms.

There is even no comparison.

Look deeply into your heart, and ask if you are happy, peaceful, and content, especially if you have no money, or even no job that seems to matter to the world.

If you can confidently say you are, then you have found God, for there are only two things in this world: 

24 No man can serve two masters: 

for either he will hate the one, 

and love the other; 

or else he will hold to the one, 

and despise the other. 

Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Matthew 6:24 (KJV)

Have no fear.

Continue to trust in the LORD.

The Lord knows all, sees all.

It will be by His DIVINE Right Timing that all will become well in this world.

Those who truly love God, are making their stand now.

These will be very interesting times, indeed.

As always, it had always been a battle for the soul.

As God knows me, He knows my stand.

Where do you stand?

May all the work we do, and the life we live, serve God alone.

In God's World, Nothing is Ever Wasted

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, 

he is a new creature: 

old things are passed away; 

behold, 

all things are become new.

2 Corinthians 5:17 

King James Version

That sturdy tree, with its strong bark, is like God.

That tiny leaf, amidst the pine needles, is like who we are -- shy, cautious, unsure, tentative, child-like, maybe even wounded.

God is protective of His creation, for He loves us all, enough to send His Son to teach us, to save us, and to give us everlasting life.

Whoever we had been in the past, doesn't really matter much.

What matters most is who we are now, how we have become, especially if we chose to follow Christ.

We are all imperfect beings, subject to sin and error, but what really matters most is if we choose to repent, and become new in the LORD.

43 To him give all the prophets witness, 

that through his name whosoever believeth in him 

shall receive remission of sins.

Acts 10:43 (KJV)

Nearly 10 months ago, I chose to start a new blog, "Prophecy Lessons", as I was teaching myself many things from Scripture.

Night and day, I was being taught by the Holy Spirit, many things about Jesus, for I was intent on knowing all about Him.

Because I moved on, I left this blog you're reading now, thinking it was completely finished, and to be set aside forever, even as it had been the basis and foundation for my personal growth. 

In an email I wrote to a friend today, I wrote, "In God's world, nothing is ever wasted".

And, of course, that very statement -- as many statements that come from my renewed heart -- created a new article, this one you're reading now.

Whoever you were in the past, with all your successes, or failures, those don't really define you.

What defines us all, is if we have given our hearts to the LORD.

Only the Lord would know what to do with what we have in our hearts.

Nothing is ever wasted.

All we have experienced in life, if we allow it to, can build character, not bitterness.

All our pain, our fears, our experiences, lessons learned, the humbling of our hearts -- they all serve God's purpose.

And if we offer our service to Him, as I have, we are used wonderfully, making our hearts sing with joy and excitement, at what the Lord may have us do, in His behalf.

As it was, and has forever been, it was my writing.

Now, I write about the Lord.

Now, I test everything I think, say, and do, with what Jesus said in Scripture.

All we have been, is mere grist for the mill, a necessary sifting of what is important, and what must be set aside.

Obviously, that which is important, must only serve the Lord.

That which must be set aside, is of the world.

And I am doing both, because I chose to follow Jesus, and Jesus alone.

In my desire to know God, I must read the WORD, and follow the WAY, which is both Jesus.

We all have gone through much in life, but like that beautiful image above, you can see a tiny, green leaf, peeking from the hardy, protective tree, which is God.

Such is the way to walk in Christ.

Life may not have been pretty for us, and we may all still be having a difficult time right now, but in God's world, nothing is ever wasted.

God uses what we have in our hearts, who we are, how we have become, and what we wish to accomplish, for His purpose.

The days become more beautiful, when your heart is totally offered to the Lord.

But, as always, you have to experience it for yourself, to know what I speak of.

By the GRACE of God, you will choose to only serve the Lord, and pray He shows you how to follow Him.

In that prayer, watch how God will work in your life!

Thus, this blog must be revived, for it had been my foundation, and invitation, for Christ to come into my life.

Thank you for reading this post!

May you be safe where you are and may you have the peace and happiness that only God can give!

As a welcome gift, enjoy this lovely, soothing music, if you wish!

The Lamb Makes a Choice

Just three days ago, I made a choice to study Dr. David R. Reagan's videos on Biblical Prophecy.

Why Biblical Prophecy?

My soul felt it was time.

I felt I was ripe to know more about Jesus and His Teachings.

And I was especially drawn to Bible Prophecy after viewing two videos I was led to.

After finishing those two videos, it was as if something "clicked" inside me, opening the door.

Dr. Reagan's videos were the key, for I had not looked back since.

How something so incongruous (for I had never "touched" Bible prophecy nor really listened to any such ministering) could have opened the doors to vital knowledge I will never know.

But, of course, God knows.

He knew I was ready.

He knew I had searched too long.

But He also knew I was patient and persistent.

He knew I aimed to do right in my life.

And surely, He knew the desires of my heart -- to know Him and His Son in full. 

In one of his many videos, Dr. Reagan said he has been studying the Word of God for 45 years now.

I am in stark contrast to that for I know a few passages here and there from what they taught us in Catholic school, but have not really embraced nor fully absorbed the many beautiful teachings of the Bible which is God's Word.

I attribute that largely to confusion.

-- Who shall I listen to?

-- Who is the best guide for the Word of God?

-- Who can explain things to me without any vested interest in their own ministries, whatever religion it may be?

-- Who was clear and consistent?

-- Who can I trust?

-- Where do I start?

-- Which Bible version to read? 

-- Even if I were to read the Bible, who can guide me in the precise way I wanted to be guided?

All these questions moved in my heart. 

I had no idea where to begin and how to get there.

I was like a lamb among wolves, not knowing whom to trust in full.

For I took God's Word seriously.

I am that kind of a student.

All or nothing.

Once I know something is good and worthwhile, I tend to share it.

I was fortunate a good friend would coach me on Bible passages every time I needed to know a particular Scripture passage for my work as a writer and researcher.

Now, I've jumped on God's Train totally and enjoying the ride in full!

Now, Dr. Reagan and my friend are my best allies in learning more about Jesus, who has "shown" Himself in my dreams several times.

I also had a dream about God at one point in my life and know the exact feeling of His LOVE and PRESENCE -- so very comforting to my soul!

More importantly, I am getting to know Scripture and thus, will only counter-check my own thoughts and experiences with that.

Being a three-day-old lamb, I feel I am in good hands through Dr. Reagan's Bible Prophecy videos and my friend's kind counseling.

This is the path I'm taking and I'm so very happy and excited as never before in my life.

My thirst for God is being quenched.

My thirst for Jesus is being supplied.

And one day, I shall be worth their while.

Israel: God's Nation

Why is Israel so important to God?

Why are so many people and nations hard on Israel?

Dr. David R. Reagan has studied and taught the Bible since 1976.

He also loves the Jewish people and what they represent as can be learned from his website.

You will love the video and two sample chapters from his book.

I had a few Jewish friends and I found them very intelligent, talented, hard-working, and focused.

One friend even let me listen to traditional Jewish music by a male vocalist and I must say it hit a chord in my heart, sending many beautiful reverberations to my soul. The music felt ancient and very haunting to me.

I was also intrigued learning about Albert Einstein being first offered the presidency of Israel which was finally created on 14 May 1948.

Strangely, I also was drawn to the "Star of David" many years ago.

Read more about Israel here.

And so continues my education about God, Jesus, Israel, Jews, and Biblical Prophecy.

I feel I've finally come home with this new knowledge.

And I thank God and His chosen messenger and teacher for me, Dr. David R. Reagan.

Our soul always leads us to that which resonates well with our hearts.

May you enjoy my new discoveries, too!

Biblical PROPHECY You Will Want To LISTEN To

Revelation 19:10

King James Version

10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. 

And he said unto me, 

See thou do it not: 

I am thy fellowservant, 

and of thy brethren 

that have the testimony of Jesus: 

worship God: 

for the testimony of Jesus 

is the spirit of prophecy.

I knew nothing about Bible prophecy, much less about Dr. David R. Reagan.

I was searching for God's TRUTH alone.

And what would God's Truth be without Scripture?

Yesterday, GOD led me to all THREE: 

Bible prophecy, Dr. Reagan, and Scripture.

Immediately, the LORD led me to the following videos on rebellious America.

Liked or reviled, we must admit many countries follow America's political, economic, cultural, and religious trends.

And that's why Dr. Reagan spoke powerfully of how this country has set aside God and how this will affect this country.

As Dr. Reagan says, he doesn't know the "time" when CHRIST will come.

But he knows the "season" when He will.

Here's another wonderful video where Dr. Reagan shares his "50 Reasons We Are All In the End Times":

Soon as I studied the videos, GOD made me born again.

After that, He put His SPIRIT in me.

The result?

We haven't stopped writing since.

We warn people to get right with GOD now, through His Son, JESUS.

Every day we're alive is PURE GRACE.

Without which, we'd all have perished.

But test GOD's patience no longer.

Turn to JESUS now.

The Waiting Was All Worth It

Finally, after many weeks of many false starts, God showed up last night in a way He knew my soul was prepared for.

It started strangely yesterday morning.

I went to town to do a bit of work, intent on polishing a blog but things didn't turn out that way.

There were three young fellows who were quieter than the usual war games crowd. 

Still, I can't seem to find a "handle" on my work yesterday.

Something didn't "click".

I brought a bunch of books as references but somehow those books never got opened.

After an hour of unfulfilling work, I decided to call it a day.

I knew that God "planted" those young people close by my side so what I thought I'd do for a blog wouldn't materialize.

But today was different.

As if in unison, this time, there were three young ladies beside me (three again), which was highly unusual.

That never happened before where I worked.

I knew I'd find the peace and focus today for what I wanted to say on this blog post.

For I discovered something essential last night as I listened to some videos, my soul searching for that "elusive" thing.

After so much waiting, 

searching, 

and wondering, 

God finally gifted me with two videos 

that made my heart happy.

Please head to the next post to see what I found about Biblical Prophecy.

Finally, all those dreams and images of mine made sense.

Christ's time has come.

The Adorable Jack-Jack

Straight to the heart.

That's how Jack-Jack made an impact on me when I first encountered him yesterday.

And I never never ever wish to recover.

This infant's innocence, laughter, and many funny, natural ways hit my heart right on-center.

I was Jack-Jack and he was me.

We're pure instincts, first base with stuff.

We both have many personalities that come forth depending on who or what we're with.

Different people and creatures elicit different reactions.

We're happily in our world, minding our own business, perpetually curious about most everything, and loving our families so.

We love huge chunks of cookies, our great "pacifier".

If you know anything about "Incredibles 2" you'd love this tiny guy, too.

That laughter, the character, and the innocence tickles your funny bone and touches your heart.

I hope he never grows up.

I thought I was five years old.

How wrong I was.

I'm much younger.

I'm Jack-Jack.

I'm just a baby.

We see things pretty much the same way.

We're good when we're with good people.

But boy, when we see bad people or injustice done, we get going.

Then our super powers come a-visitin'.

Too bad about the mistaken thief, the raccoon, though...

Don't you love to laugh?

Don't you love funny stuff?

True laughter is from the soul.

It springs from it.

Jack-Jack did that to me, like no other character -- real or cartoon -- ever did.

But I'm on the "happy baby" path, starting with the article I wrote on 14 June 2019. 

I thank God for reminding me of who I originally was.

I am Jack-Jack.

The Soul's Goal

I woke up today wanting to write an article about "the soul's goal".

Nothing could be simpler.

It's simple:

To be "ONE with God".

That's really our soul's goal no matter how much we deny or deviate from it.

Since we came from God, naturally, we go back to Him, too.

Everything we do on earth are merely ways to re-connect with Him in one form or the other -- through the work we do or the relationships we have.

We are seeking spiritual union with the Father.

At the end of our days, that's what happens.

Everyone goes back to The Father.

The GOAL has always been God.

And, of course, God played a sweet trick on me today.

As I searched for an appropriate image for this post, I was drawn in seconds to the image above.

I was tickled pink for that was EXACTLY how I felt with God -- a child standing on the Palm of His Hand, finding my balance, and yet so confident He will hold me up -- all so real and yet so symbolic.

We always played and laughed together.

He was always so Strong and Reliable.

Then I observed that the image came from a "Father's Day" Pinterest collection.

Aha!

God wanted me to remember His Day, which will be this third Sunday of June -- 16 June 2019 -- even as in my heart every day is ALWAYS Father's Day.

So, I greet ALL fathers in this world and all the universes a HAPPY Father's Day each day -- may your lives continue to be more enriched than it already is!

That being that, the image became perfect for this post.

In everything I do with God at the helm, I felt like I hit a jackpot.

Yes, I'll forever be his happy, grateful, tickled daughter.

God is SOOOOOO Great!

How can He not be your singular goal when He Is All There Is?

Your work, your family, your friends, your accomplishments don't define you.

Only God can define us.

Focus your whole being on God and your soul will be immeasurably happy.

The challenges of life, the aches and pains of our body, the future still to be created cannot dampen the happiness you'll have when you've found God was in your heart all along.

We humans are a fallible sort.

God is Infallible.

That's why I always go straight to Him when I need Answers.

The Creator is the Best Guide and Father.

Forever full of LOVE.

And boat-loads of JOY!

Your Experience of God is Uniquely Your Own

If you search for God with all your heart, you will surely encounter Him in a way only you can identify.

Everyone will experience Him differently.

We're all many billion facets of His Being, and that's how it will be for each one of us.

And so I wonder why people say theirs is the only true way of experiencing God or of honoring Him.

That's how religions have been formed.

And that's how we've all been controlled to think.

But what if God came to you in an entirely different way?

Would you welcome Him if He came to you differently?

Like in an unexpected dream I once had of Him.

I woke up knowing He was all that, making Himself felt and known as that.

He was gentle and yet powerful.

Soothing and yet sublime.

And since I have been searching for Him all my life as I did my own thinking, He came through in many different ways. 

So who's to say what is right or what is wrong?

Who's to say theirs is the only correct way of experiencing God?

Perhaps, if people stopped arguing or debating, putting each other down, or mocking each other, God can come through beautifully and unimpeded.

I feel that if you really want to experience God personally, all you have to do is ask.

Pray to Him directly.

I pray to Him as a daughter would to Her One True Father -- the Creator of All.

And He always comes through my dreams, visions, or mind's eye in a way I can understand.

Thus, this blog and other blogs I've created.

There's so much to share, only because I have opened my heart and mind to Him.

Perhaps, He doesn't see any block in my receiving Him in my heart, mind, or spirit, so He comes through beautifully.

It has become so for me that I'm like an expectant child, happily awaiting more messages or instruction from Him.

And the same would be for you if you open your heart and mind to Him and Him alone.

Welcome whatever message, answer, or instruction that will come through that you may have asked for.

Only God can clarify your mind and heart.

Only He will give you the answers you seek.

I merely share with you my own experiences.

Your own will be different from mine, for you are uniquely you.

God doesn't need us to create a new religion from our experiences.

As our Father, He would want us to get along and to help each other.

We are all brothers and sisters and He is our Father and Creator.

Why do we make things too complicated?

Where there is complexity, there will be division and confusion.

God is All About Unity.

He knows I like things simple, so He comes into my life that way.

I have a five-year-old heart that seeks clarity, simplicity, and joy.

If you desire Him more than anything in the world, you will love how He will show up in your life.

Make Him the priority in everything and He will reflect the thought and energy you have.

Allow no one to tell you how God will be in your life.

For your soul to be happy, you must know Him directly.

That has been the objective of our lives anyway -- to experience the Love That Only He Can Give.

Actually, all we need to do is re-connect and re-member.

He was never far away from us.

He was always in our hearts. 

When you seek God above all, expect to be forever changed.

Transcendence

A few days ago, the word "transcendence" came to mind.

I don't know why, but it was imprinted on my mind.

Perhaps a desire of my soul.

So I wrote the word down to remind me of that moment.

Then yesterday, soon as I positioned myself at a book shop, my eyes were drawn to a book on God.

It was a book I saw once or twice before but never gave it much attention.

Apparently, this time around, I was ready to learn from it.

It showed many other Facets of God.

Normally, I'd take hours to find such a treasure.

This time around, I found it just like that.

Synchronicities happen often in my life.

When your soul wants or needs something, God will supply that which you need.

He was, after all, everything I'm seeking ALL the time.

So, He gently guided me to the thick but lightweight book and I read it happily all afternoon until early evening.

But such books take time to understand for it is totally unlike any other book I've bought before.

But I have the time and the heart.

God is All There Is, so I happily give the new knowledge my time.

God is the only thing that's worth learning anyway.

All the research I do is of Him.

He leads me to all that research.

He knows my soul seeks Him.

And finally a few days ago, I felt ready for "transcendence".

What is that but a feeling?

It's a very high feeling of not really needing much in this world.

You are beyond power, acquisitions, materialism, and ambition.

It's like, only God matters.

I've "transcended" all stuff of the world and would have none of those.

Only God can make me happy.

Only people who love God can make me happy.

Only businesses and organizations who love God can make me happy.

If those organizations love God, they will care about us, too.

My thinking's really very simple.

How To Make Wise Decisions

Do you have an easy time making decisions?

Or is life fraught with difficulty over making such decisions?

May we simplify it a bit for you?

Such as after reading an important chapter from a book I was studying, and giving myself a moment to let the new ideas sink in before going back to sleep, a "thought" came to write something about decisions.

The "thought" said there were only two (2) decisions to make anyway, so I let the idea simmer beautifully in my being for a moment, even as part of me wanted to go back to sleep.

It was but 3:30 in the morning and I especially savored the longer sleep on Sundays.

But no, when an idea takes hold, when an important "thought" is born, there can be no going back to bed for a writer like myself.

The "thought" said that if we wish to make decisions, there are really only two important things to consider:

1. Does it bring you towards God?
2. Does it take you away from God?

Decisions that bring us towards God mean our decisions feel good to us and truly benefit all concerned.

There is no ego, no greed, no manipulation, no schemes, no worldly stuff, nothing complicated, only things of the Spirit -- only God and Love.

That which takes us away from God when we make decisions keeps us awake at night for our soul says something's not quite right.

Good decisions have God in it.

There's always love, peace, joy, gentleness, and kindness.

With every decision you need to make, always make GOD your guide.

When He created us, He gave us the capacity to love and even gave us free will.

He gave us our intelligence, our talents, our bodies, and our hearts.

How we make use of those depends on our own soul's growth and not on our personalities.

There is always the free will to change for the better.

We always have the option to love or not to love.

If we chose the path to God, then it's automatic we become kinder, more loving, and compassionate.

Choosing the path away from him destroys our self for we do not choose His Light and Guidance.

Every decision is always a decision to reach up to God or to turn your back on Him.

But how can one turn your back on the One Who Created you?

Unless you don't remember or acknowledge that He created you.

Well, perhaps it's time to remember that we won't be on earth if He had not created us.

It's really that simple.

I chose to get up and follow that "thought" to write this post for it was important.

Even as I'm far from perfect, God gives me that opportunity each day I breathe and wake up to get closer to Him.

Every thought, every word, every deed is an opportunity to make a stand about my own path -- towards God or away from him.

As always, I choose HIM.

He was that "Thought".

He inspired me to write this and I'm most grateful.

Making decisions can really be easy.

God has simplified it.

We merely cloak it with worldly stuff and we lose our way.

Come back on the path, sail back to Him.

The world will not nourish nor sustain your soul.

Only God will.
