Defacing God's Property

I love to ride and look at the buildings when driving into the city, I enjoy looking at old buildings most. The statues and the shape of the bricks can make a building look amazing until you stumble across gang signs, and hate drawn all over a wonderful looking building. That is defacing property and it makes me sad. Some people feel powerful spray painting walls of churches, schools and sometimes people homes and businesses. It is as if they know that you have a special gift and they don't want you to find out just how special you are.

Some feel that if you only knew just how valuable you really are that you will no longer have a need to be in their life, because you make them look better with them than if they were by themselves. "Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake". Luke 6:22

Beloved you are God's Property and anyone who tells you that you are worthless, that you will never amount to anything, or judge you because of your past now that you have seen God's light, they are defacing God's Property and have to answer to Him for that. You are valuable and highly favored and no one has the right to make you feel as though you are not. Well you maybe thinking he/she doesn't say those kinds of things, he/she just makes me feel like I don't matter and that my feelings don't count.

A person doesn't have to say those thing with words. This can happen when you are betrayed by a best friend or sibling, or when a spouse cheats on you or when you suffer a hate crime of some sort. Sometimes hate crime happen on a job when a coworker lie to get you fired, or accuse you of something that you did not do. "is any among you afflicted? Let him pray". James 5:13

None of us are perfect and we all have sinned and fallen short of God's Glory, but pray for your enemies and bless them, for the lord will surly bless you when you do this. Some will realize when they are wrong and do right, some won't right away, and there are some who never will until it too late. I know that it hurts beloved and you feel like all is for not, you feel as though you are the biggest fool in the world. Well your not and God has not forgotten you in all of your trials and fights. The evil one may have won this battle, but baby you fight back with the Word of God, Stab him in the heart with prayer, and smack him upside the head with praise, and when you get threw he will know that he's been in a fight with you and in the end God wins all wars. Love and Peace to all!

Loneliness

Are you ever lonely? do you feel as though there isn't another soul who understands you and you feel as though you were the only person on earth? often times this feeling comes when you gone threw a bad break-up or if you have a bad relationship with your family. for some who have no family of their own. Loneliness occurs for some who move to a new state or town, new school and even a new church. I want to know are you a good friend? do you have good listening skills? to have friends you must be a friend. I met a lady and she and I made fast friends. As I got to know her I found out that she was the other woman in a relationship where the husband had left his wife. more over she was still married herself.

I asked myself over and over if I should stay friends with some one with so much drama? This lady even had a child from this outside relationship. Although I did not agree with the things that she did and I did not like that way she carried on with this married man, I loved the fact that she was a woman who prayed with and for her children and I know that she goes to church. I love a lot of her ideas about life and school and business. Although I did not agree on her life style I knew that I want to be her friend and be there for her if she needed me. I did not want her to feel all alone and lonely.

We all get lonely sometimes, that is just life. sometimes loneliness comes in a crowded room or on a train, bus, airplane and even church. Lets try not to create ways to become lonely, but work hard to be good neighbors and friends and keep busy. Doing something for someone is a good way to not become lonely, nursing homes, schools, and libraries are good places to start. call a friend or a sister or even pray. Prayer will work if you try. I hope that I can make some new friends and although this is my first blog I sure hope that I did it well.
