Diet # 434

If I think the same
Expect the same
React the same
Say the same
Do the same
Resent the same
Hate the same
I will feel the same.
Nothing changes if Nothing changes


This 'thing' is too big for me.
Today I can choose to cry out for help, to pray for a willing heart a courageous heart that will rise from misty low living into the abundant life purchased for me. I may not 'have it' on how to end a destructive cycle but I know who does....when we are weak He shows Himself strong on my behalf. It is a very good thing to know you are weak.....when we finally come to the end of doing or trying to do in our own strength we are enabled in the grace that knows no measure...love that has no bounds.

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...
