Let There be Blood..Kimmy's Movie Review

FB Entry Friday Night...... Watched the movie, 'Let there be Blood,' Tonight...expecting this great Oscar nominated flick forever on my long list of movies to see that I haven't....WHAT was THAT? Double YUK YUK! I feel like I need to wash it off! LOL Still love Daniel Day Lewis' acting though....a repeat of The Last of the Mohican's would have been the better choice.


FB Entry Saturday AM Thoughts.....I was really taken back as I watched the most ugly mocking portrayal of christianity I have ever personally seen on the screen last night... thinking this morning of the 'unchurched' looking in at Christianity or just what's offered on TV in the USA in the name of Christ....the hypocrisy, self/man glorifying, little God devaluing, the charlatan; Simon Magus of our day..boasting in the lusts and the pride of life with evil eyes upon that which they are beholding..and the 'church' follows them..scary to me too...I think the movie was really a needed painful commentary on the Impotent state/strange bearing fruit/accurate perception of the church in America today to the 'unchurched'... one that should produce an attitude of sack cloth and ashes; repentance and intercession for a true follower of Christ and not a vain offence that woud produce the usual masse boycott(I hate that)..For me...the bottom line theme of movie: the world and the church look and act sadly the same...Lust for Materialism in full flight.....the declining morality of both.

When Patriotism Becomes Worship and We Don’t Even Notice

  https://baptistnews.com/article/when-patriotism-becomes-worship-and-we-dont-even-notice/?fbclid=IwQ0xDSwLYuSdleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHp_DyT3kMbTGShsQLE2CBHujma7IgZdGW2mWRBFeeU8lOUruC4WCj1vgEFFL_aem_U7lr3050XPUiM7WLAs0pJg “When Patriotism becomes Worship and we don’t even notice.” So grateful to find this article I sort of think it found me laugh a lot. What other people do is none of my business but for years I’ve been wrestling with some of the trends and level of politics and patriotism within the church. . But this article speaks my language it resonates with my spirit and shares my concerns. So for now, all Is at rest and Jesus He’s The only answer. Maybe someone out there feels the same way I do. I hope this post finds you and this article encourages your heart like it did mine. You aren’t crazy  Pray 🙏 That’s why you see it the way you do.

Walked into an office this morning playing over the speakers was the  60’s classic song , Bridge over Troubled Water, by Simon and Garfunkel. Love it. Just in time for the last half ending that crescendos n swells beautifully. Common song, heard it a gazillion times but this time I Sat quietly and really listened.  Like a Bridge over Troubled Water I will lay me down, Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind.  No not a Christian song …..but worshipping Jesus regardless. Reminded again how Christ through his redemption on Calvary paid the ultimate price and  was Himself the bridge who laid Himself down so I can be at peace with God. I have all access to the throne of grace because of the blood of the Lamb shed for me. Once I was at enmity with God enemies antagonistic but now He calls me Friend.(Colossians 1:21, John 15:13) And because of His Amazing love, sacrifice and Resurrection I can live in His strength today, I can live with joy and hope in the m...

Just Thinkin’

 A friend posted this meme below today and I it stirred some thoughts:  "Stop blaming women for falling for the wrong men. The truth is, some men pretend to be someone they're not from the start." My counselor years ago said something so wise: When people begin their relationships, they are on their best behavior. It takes time to see what people are really made of. It takes time to observe How people react when they’re under pressure , how they deal with their anger,  how they speak to people, how they talk about people. How they speak about the Lord. What do they do with their time and their money. What is the substantive character of that individual? Sometimes in the midst of the feelings and wanting to be in love, I think most of us wear rose colored glasses. We see people the way we wanna see them. But if we get past those Gush feelings and really hear their hearts it is there it really is ….who they truly down deep are. I look back on previous relationsh...
