(Perspective) Biblical: Don't Grumble, We're All In This Together

Don't Grumble, We're All In This Together 1 Peter 4:7-19 1 Peter 4: 7-9:
But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers And above all things have fervent love for one another for ‘ love will cover a multitude of sins.' Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.
If you haven’t noticed, a lot of people are saying "we’re in the end times." Or, even if you haven’t noticed any odd happenings and feel life is trending the way it should, it is still wise and highly encouraged
...to be serious and watchful in your prayers
Aside from that, something we also need to be doing often and all the time is simply having ...
love for one another.


No matter if you feel the world is ending or not. No matter if you’re feeling blessed or spiritually oppressed. The answer or solution is...
love will cover a multitude of sins
to where you’re praying for your enemies, finding true peace to endure hardships of this life, whether it’s ending or not.

And most importantly,
Be hospitable without grumbling
The rest of the chapter 1 Peter 4: 10-19 (which you should totally read) offers a lot of encouragement to those suffering trials for Christ. “Don't think it strange concerning the fiery trial…”
Keep loving, keep being hospitable without, grumbling, keep having love for one another.

(Perspective) Biblical: Freedom In The House Of Mourning

Countless times I've expressed the expansive variety of options we're gifted here on Earth. Why do we limit ourselves to options ABCD, though? We're told we have free will. We're told we can do what we want with our bodies and choose when to have kids  But what does it really look like to have free will? I'll tell you now. Not caring about the options at all. Seeing everything as a gift. Realizing this world was designed to be enjoyed and lived in to the fullest extent possible. Again, why limit ourselves to simple options? Pick whatever car you want (as long as it's the color options they've presented you with.) Eat whatever type of french fry, icecream, or food that is available on the menu list at your favorite restaurant. We have personal preferences and there's nothing wrong with having options and opinions. The question poised here is simple: Are you really free, or just given options?  I was blessed to hear a wonderful sermon that presented this w...

15 December 2021 Dream

Dream last night was trying to meet someone outside to talk in person. Guess I got impatient.  Was outside at night fall. Was able to read street sign that read "Lara". Walked down the road to food joint. Inside I see some small black square shaped folding table, that some well dressed Mexican man was holding up, then allowed to fall and collapse. I was frustrated and annoyed that he left that mess. I attempted to fix the table. He quietly laughed to himself at my struggle.  I start laughinig like him in a mocking way. There were a couple of small stuffed pillows that I tossed to the ground with every laugh walking towards him. He looked at me pissed off and angry. A full cup of Coke in a paper cup with the lid on sat on the table where he stood next to it. He knocked it over and it spilled all over the floor leaving a long trail throughout the entire length of the restaurant. I hopped over it and said, "I'm not cleaning that. Guess everyone will have sticky feet the...

Respect Rules and Regulations

2 Timothy 2:5  "And also if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules." I find it interesting how mad people can get when a referee makes a bad call during a sporting event. I find it very interesting how angered and outraged a group of peoople will act when they're under the impression their team should have won, and lost due to rules being broken and someone failing to do their job right and make the correct call.  Many of these same people committed to these teams and their strict terms of correctness, also tend to ignore many rules of life.   I won't deny  that many rules are arbitrary, don't make sense and are designed to disenfranchise groups of people. Many are forced on people that deny your right to life.  Combat those things with respect. If it goes against your conscience which is part of you, you have the right to defend yourself. Those who are in power also are expected to lead, following rules wi...
