Daily Christian reflection blog

[*Deidre*]

I've never kept a blog on a separate website before lol I discovered Wordpress recently, and thought I'd share some daily entries from time to time in this thread. Just my ramblings upon returning to faith last year.

The format like spacing of paragraphs and such ...I need to figure out. Not sure why it's a bit off and bunched together.

I've in my entire life spend less than 1 hour on Facebook. I never understood it.

But still spend too much time on social media , and it has gotten me into trouble spiritually, mentally, emotionally, but once even got me a visit from the police because of a song I sang on YouTube that was interpreted as a threat.

I do much better now that I don't go to atheist websites, but I hope God gives me the grace he gave you to really lose interest in spending much time chatting online at all.

The problem is , it would be bad for me to give up the internet. I have learned so much that has balanced me out theological and taught me so many lessons for life, and met so many good people.

If I have narrow-minded or bigoted view, or if I'm immature and annoying, there is much correction that I receive online that helps a lot and wouldn't trade that for the world.

 a lady on another forum sent me a money order for $180 and I never asked anyone for money.

So, God has given  many signs that he wants me to use the internet , but he wants me to use it less and to spend time on it more wisely and productively, No Doubt.

So your blog is a realitycheck. 

Oh goodness , just wish I could go have a fast death and lose my head for Jesus rather than face tomorrow and all of the growth and discipline and change that must take place  ugh!

I really enjoyed reading your blog.  Not only is the content very thought-provoking, but inspiring, as well.  

You, my dear, have a special gift for writing.  May God continue to bless you in all that you do.

Your life has a purpose, and it is sometimes one that we don't see right away. But, it does have a purpose. And all of our lives' main purposes, are to serve God, give Him all the glory. It's not easy. Following Jesus is not easy, but it's rewarding, and way more rewarding than what this earth has to offer. We live in the world, but not FOR it. Always remember that, and you'll be great.

I especially like the one about your grandmother and the one about Idolatry.

We all can be prone to turning to the golden calf of pleasure, pain relief, reputation, and possessions.

You shall continue blooming sister.  Be patient with others. The flower can only bloom in the correct timing.  If we try to force its pedals open before the correct time, we can permanently damage it.

All things happen in God's timing not ours
