Integrity

You win some you lose some; Either way keep your integrity!

Sexuality & Christianity

I have been thinking about sex and, well, life. I am almost 30 now and I was not raised in a church friendly environment... but then came to the Lord later in life and began attending church.
I think the church has some good things going for it, but I also think that - at least in todays modern churches- there is a lot of condemnation on people for doing what people natuarlly do.
I think people need to learn how to respect and love.... its one thing to be corrective, but it's another to be condemning. To condemn or to say something is wrong, without showing or telling or teaching the RIGHT way to do a thing doesn't have much effect...
Its like saying, we know were wrong, but there's no right way...

I have more to say about all of this... but no is not the time.
Hope your inspired.....
Be Blessed~

I'm sitting at a coffee house and there's something that looks like a small door in a brick wall.....and an alarm was going off....

i was into church.... but it seems to be bad for me....
but now i see.......
and i still can't not be me~
i love~myself.

only love.

the rest of 1 corinthians 13

...placing the word ~love~ where (it) belongs ~


Love is not rude.

Love is not self seeking.

Love is not easily angered.

Love keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects,
Love always trusts,
Love always hopes,
Love always perseveres.
Love never fails.


We could all use a little more love.

:)

~love~

what is love?
love is patient.
have you been patient, lately? or have you lost your patience, lost your faith in hoping for something good?
can you wait on God? what is the rush for, anywhay?
love is patient and still kind...
even when i have to wait, i will smile .... i won't be angry at people, at anybody, for taking longer than what i want, or expect.
God works things in mysetrious ways.
i heard a story about 9/11 (twin towers) and there was a (good) report about a man who had been trying to go to work that day (he worked at the towers) and things kept delaying him.. traffic, stop lights...and he didn't make it to work on time, but because of those delays his life was saved.
love (charity) envies not.
love does not look at (it's, his or her) loss, or lack - or make comparisons with what others (seem) to have that (he or she) (seem) to not have.

i personally think gratitude, and thankfullness can completely overcome envy.

love (aka charity) vaunteth not itself (vaunt means 'lift up', 'exalt', make 'high', as in "high and mighty"), and love aka charity is not puffed up....

jesus told us that the ones who "lift themselves up".. will be cast down, and those that "humble themselves", will be lifted up.
