Curing yourself

War and peace, are still a problem in our world

Even though we have been spared from wars in our own areas for several years already now, we still see many war zones around us.

To love somebody is not just a strong feeling

Make it a habit to tell people thank you…

In the previous posting I mentioned to focus on the good things in life and leaving those who can not stand you aside. Be stronger then their degrading attitude and show the people around you love and kindness.

Let others know how you appreciate their presence, but also what they do. Be kind to those who you encounter and do not hesitate to show your thankfulness.

Make of every bit of your life a good bit and a treasure to carry you further in life.

#MidweekReflection . . . Dear Daughter

We are not here to be perfect, we are here to love, to grow stronger and more bright with every generation.

Grabbing love

True love grabs on to what is loved and does not let go for anything, just as death grabs a hold of a person and never lets go in this world. Love knows no bounds in which it will go to show that love.

Daily Prompt- What Are You Passionate About?

In our Western industrialised world, we can live in prosperity, but we also have a duty or obligation to share our prosperity with others. There is a great need for help all over the world. However small the contribution to help may be it will be a welcome one.

If you’ve been around this blog for any length of time, you’ll know the answer!!! I am passionate about trying to use the platform of a blog to tell people about how many precious children are orphaned and vulnerable, and often in pretty bad circumstances.

I want to inspire you to keep families together, and to consider adopting a child who needs a family. There are about 8 million children are in orphanages around the world, who are extremely vulnerable to not receiving the quality or quantity of care they need. Even the best orphanage is NOT a place for a child to grow up- studies have shown that again and again.

Dean desperately needs a family, and the quality care and medical attention that comes with that.

In fact, for every 3 months in an orphanage, a child…

Loving One Another

Brian W. Johnson

Even though love for a particular person, or people, is sometimes easier than for others, followers of Christ are not called to ‘let love be genuine’ only to those for whom it is easy to love. Venturing outside biblically defined bounds of genuine love turns it into a squishy and nebulous force ushering from the seat of emotion.

Ill defined and emotionally driven love becomes fickle and empty. Not only is it a ill defined phenomena, it almost always becomes an ideal of romantic love. The notion of true love then becomes a one in a million incident only found by the fortunate. 

Love is so much more than romance. We are to let love be genuine and extend beyond the base level hormone response.

Followers of Christ are called to love their brothers in Christ, with great frequency. Loving brothers and sisters in Christ will not always come…

Living Life in a Fish Bowl!

I interact with numerous people throughout any given week.  Sometimes I can go from talking with someone who has just lost a loved one or lost their job to someone who just got married or just got a promotion.  

Romans 12:15 says, “Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.”  Be careful that you don’t get that backwards and rejoice when something bad happens to someone and be sad when they get a blessing.  Jealousy is behind that line of thinking.

“So don’t lose a minute in building on what you’ve been given, complementing your basic faith with good character, spiritual understanding, alert discipline, passionate patience, reverent wonder, warm friendliness, and generous love, each dimension fitting into and developing the others. With these qualities active and growing in your lives, no grass will grow under your feet, no day will pass without its reward as you mature…

May your day be wonderful!

Purplerays

Greet everyone you meet with a warm smile, no matter how busy you are.

Don’t rush encounters with coworkers, family and friends.

Speak softly. Listen attentively.

Act as if every conversation you have is the most important thing on your mind today.

Look your children and your partner in the eyes when they talk to you.
Stroke the cat, caress the dog.

Lavish love on every living being you meet.

See how different you feel at the end of the day.

Love and Cherry Delight

Roth Poetry

“The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach!”

“The way to keep a man’s heart is through his stomach!”

Love and Cherry Delight

I know she loves me…

She made me a cherry cheesecake for Valentine’s Day!

Red is the color of love, and for me it is cherries.

Made it for me against her better judgment…

because she loves me and knows it is my favorite.

*

Love is like that you know…

Makes one do things you wouldn’t ordinarily do.

When you get to be my age love sometimes comes

in unusual ways… such as cherry cheesecake.

Though she cringes at the thought of all those calories

she knows it won’t last long.

*

So, as she enjoys squares of dark chocolate,

I savor each bite

of that delectable cream cheese and cherries…

and love her dearly as the sweet taste of love

lingers on my…
