No matter what oh may think if The Bible series, you still should be able to get your emotions stirred up with the crucifixion scene. Every time I see the scene played out in any movie or story, it moves me to tears.
Just wondering what Jesus thought, what He felt, and why He didn't scream out to be saved. What did He think when He saw His mother there with Him?
I know He felt grieved and counted it all joy to take on my sins, but being human I have to wondered what He really thought. Yes, I know His battle was in the garden but still....what did He really think.
For me, I would have blasted every single one of those people. Thank heavens I am not Jesus. As a mother, I would have done everything in my power to keep it from happening to my baby. As a daughter, there is no way I would want my mother or father to see me going through something that horrible, yet Jesus did.
I know He had to make all things new but still, even after everything, what was He thinking? Yes, I know He was looking ahead and saw mr and you, and He was a willing participant from the foundation of the world but don't you wonder if He had other thoughts on His mind?
Forget about His pain from the beatings, and the thumping of His head because of the thorns, or the thirst He felt, or the thought that every step he took was painful and with each step brought Him closer to death.
Have you ever wondered if He thought about His love for Mary? I believe He had to be in love with her for the bible states He felt what we feel but I have no prove unlike the so called that code movie.
Many people talk about what people's last words are in life before crossing over but few talk about their thoughts. Yet most of the time, they come out any way it depends on whether you listen for them as you struggle to swallow your grief.
I just can't help wonder what Jesus truly thought of that day as He walked amongst His peers but one thing I can be truly happy about is that no matter what they were, it wasn't enough to change His mind about His mission and purpose and that He still went to the cross to save a nosy sinner like me.
God Bless.

Another Blast
http://www.wfaa.com/news/texas-news/powerful-exploson-rocks-town-north-of-waco-203508001.html
In as many days, I am once again sending out my thoughts and prayers not just to individuals but to a whole town which just exploded. According to the news the town maybe leveled and as many as ten buildings are on fire, one being a middle school.
My heart goes out not only to the townspeople but also to all the employees who were working in the factory and who may or may not be hurt. My thoughts goes out to office workers, CFO, board members, and all executives who may or may not been aware of something like this could happen.
My thoughts turn to the possible family members of the townspeople who may live outside the area or state as they rush to get their things together for the journey they must now are forced to take,
May love resign supreme in this trying time and forgiveness and grace run freely to all who are in need and may the God of this nation forgive us as once again, we are forced to look at our nation as a whole.
For all us who may have felt to pray today for factories and thought it was stupid, thank The Lord we live under His grace and His mercies are new every morning. May we wake up, take up, and stand up for this great nation and may tomorrow be the start of God's hand returning towards this great nation for if we ever needed Him, now is the time.
Once again, my thoughts and prayers go out to this town located in this great nation and God Bless America!

Have You Had Enough Yet?
Have you had enough with a family member, your bills you can't pay, a spouse you wish would get the hint and leave you alone already, or how about that kid who thinks you nothing but an ATM machine?
For me personally. It's all the above. If I one thing more on my plate, I am not sure I can be responsible for what I do next. Personally, I am on the verge of giving up and calling it a day. In fact calling it quits on this thing called life.
If truth be told, I am tired, frustrated, and beyond angry. I am tired of people getting all up in my business. I am tired of people telling me how I need to act and feel. Last time I checked, I am a big girl who can make her own decisions and I am tired of people getting angry at my corny choices in life and or for blaming me for something I didn't do or didn't do to their satisfaction.
I am tired of dream killers. That is exactly what it is. Anything that takes me away from my dreams is a killer and the last time I looked, the bible calls killers a sin. Most of the time, people don't know they are doing it for all appearances, they only care about what they think.
So my prayer that in time, I will let the negative things and people go and allow God arise and let Him see to my dreams for He knows what He is doing in my life. It is also my prayer whoever may read this will also get rid of the negativity and seems their sights on reaching their goals and dreams God has imparted in our lives.
God Bless.

The Bombing of Boston
It makes me sick that someone thought it would be okay to shoot up people with homemade bombs on the shores of the United States.
Are we on the verge of another 911? Or are we on the verge of a civil war? Or are we dealing with some sick people who need to be locked up and have the key thrown away?
Is security on your mind tonight? Are you wondering where this world is heading especially in America? If you have read the bible just once, you should be able to read the signs of the time. We are close to something major happening.
What is about to take place is possibly the full blown tribulation or the return or Jesus Christ; possibly both. All I know is this world is going to hell in a hand basket and its a crazy life outside of Jesus. However if your still breathing and I'm stilling breathing and the clouds haven't parted than we must find a way to live on this planet until Jesus makes His trumpet return.
We must get serious and start to seek His face not only for ourselves but for America, I heard Perry Stone say we don't need a restoration but a reformation of American. We need to reform our government, our laws, our schools, and our way of life. We need to quite making light of things as we drink a drink and smoke a smoke or light up like a Christmas tree because we have some weed we just got off the thug on the street corner.
We need to put down the drink, stop keeping up with the Kardasian's, and stop being like the Jones. We need to hit our knees and be willing to sit in a service and wait until He speaks on our part to change this nation. We must be willing to work a little bit, pray a little harder, and speak less, and love more.
We must get the Creator of the universe back into the picture and let Him arise in America, in the world, and ourselves. Nothing is going to change unless we become like Jacob and wrestle with God and don't let Him go until He blesses America again.
We must get serious and get God involved or otherwise, these kinds of things will continue to happen. We must remember just like pervious generations will have to stand and be accounted for what happen during their lifetime, so will we. My hope and prayer is we will get it and get serious and the next thing that goes off is the movement of Christ and His Spirit that will touch every town, every state, and then every country in the world.
God Bless.

No One Has The Right
Dreams are what make life worth living. Everyone has them and everyone wants them to come true. The problem is not everyone's dream becomes a reality. Every person who has ever walked on the face of this earth has dreamed big dreams.
Yet unlike many of us, we are not willing to do whatever it takes to make them come true. We allow others to steal, crush, or make light of what we hold dear to our hearts. No one has that right. No one should have that power to control another person. God didn't give us a person to rule and hover over us and dictate our every move we make but He gave us a free will to choose who, what, and how our life would play out.
What we need to remember and get a handle on is once something gets deep into our spirits, we have an obligation to seek it out and pursue it with every thing in us. God said in His word that He didn't give us a spirit of fear but of power and love and to live above and beyond what we could think or ask.
So I have to ask, even myself included, if this is the case then why don't I see more of my dreams coming true and why am I not living above and beyond, in essence, the good life? I have allowed others by their words, actions, and deeds to come into my life and close the door to all my hopes and dreams.
I have allowed myself to believe in what others think of me instead of relying on what God thinks of me and who He says I can be. I have forgotten that He has a plan for my life and I have forgotten to seek His face for it.
So what I am proposing is we get back to the basics and close our mind off to others and quit allowing them access to our hopes and dreams and replace it with a fire and purpose to seek God and His righteousness and His plan for our lives and see where that leads us.
God Bless

The Bible Series
I didn't get a chance to watch the Bible on the History Channel when it came out so like all the other people who have DVR's I set mine to record the series. Anxious to watch it but to busy or maybe to lazy to watch it, I haven't watched it up until now.
However, in the mean time, I had gone to a bible study on the invitation of my aunt. While there, the Bible series become the topic of discussion. Eager to hear what the others might be thinking about it I sat a little straighter and open my ears to hear what they had to say.
Once the conversation got going, and I heard what people were saying, I began to get a pang in my spirit. I was shocked and appalled to listen to the words that was coming out of their mouths. Complaints, how dare they, it's not scripture, and who those kinds of shows do more evil than good and there is no way it follows the bible.
They talked about how the whole thing was surmised and not true. As the time went on, I noticed all they did was surmised about things in the bible. What Joseph must have thought when Mary got pregnant. What? Did I hear right? Yes I did.
What I have learned since then and now even as I watch the Bible series, I realize just how much surmising gets us in trouble. Surmising is brings trouble into our lives and opens unwanted doors that are left unopened. Surmising is more dangerous then judging others and we do it without thinking.
We think we know one thing and know how to fix the problems of the world. Surmising opens up the mouth and gives the tongue the right to spout out things that are better left unsaid. Surmising hurts people, especially the ones we love. It brings on hatred and allows strife to enter in and make a muck out of our lives.
So one thing is in need, take surmising out your vocabulary and make it a thing of your past.
God Bless.
