"Ughhhhhh! You are just too Negative for Me!"

Encouragement

   Everyone knows someone or has a family member that is cool as a fan but are always so darn negative. I mean this person finds the negative in everything, everyone and in every situation. They are always dealing

Why we must be clean according to the scriptures

As many of us become more knowledgeable about the poisons in food, we make changes to our diet to avoid as many pesticides, genetically modified (GMO), high fructose corn syrup, saccharin, artificial flavors, etc.  As we expand our knowledge of what we ingest into our bodies, we also must take into account of what we use externally. 

Our skin is our largest organ; our bodies absorb many toxins from our environment.  While we have no control over many aspects of our environment such as the air quality of the city and the type of soap in the dispenser of a restaurant’s restroom, ultimately the responsibility falls on us of not only what we ingest, but what we apply to our bodies externally as well as the reduction of toxins in our homes.  Most of us and our families spend most of their day in the home whether we are sleeping, cooking, learning the Word together, etc.

Preparing for the Sabbath

      As another blessed Sabbath rolls around I have to decide what we're going to eat for this day of rest. I try my best to switch up the meals every week so that we can still eat good and relax. At first it seemed challenging for me to stay out of the kitchen slaving over the stove and I didn't want to try to be overly righteous by not eating at all so I had to find a medium quickly. I have three children so going without eating isn't an option but with patience and a little more thought it has become very easy.

Thursday's Fruits of the Spirit; E and S pt.2

Encouragement & Strength pt.2

This week is the continuation of the Encouragement and Strength series. Over the next couple of weeks I will give precepts that will help us in our daily walk to stay encouraged and believing on the Most High that "errthang is gonna be alright!". We all have our own personal battles. If you need to be uplifted or know another sister or brother going through a hard time then these are some good ones to help them stand up and be strong. WE are a body and must help each other by all means so that we live together on one accord loving the Father through HIS son at all times.

Thursday's Fruits of the Spirit; Encouragement and Strength pt.1

Encouragement & Strength pt.1

This weeks scriptures and for the next couple of weeks will be about strength and encouragement. I know for myself it is difficult to try to walk in the spirit while my flesh is being attacked with things that shouldn't matter to me happening everyday. A lot of times the cares of this world become my cares and that is not how we should operate especially when we know we are NOT of this world.
       It's always that point when we feel like we just can't win or keep pushing on. These particular scriptures came in handy for me at a crucial time when I lost my grandfather and again when I lost my grandmother.
