The of the benefits of opinions is it allows you to really get to know someone on a deeper level — after all, they are sharing something that stems from their belief system. Another benefit is they indicate the depth of their ability to think—and/or reason. We live in a time where people only repeat what they hear — and there's no real thought behind it — So, when someone shares their opinion with you—engage with them. It's a great opportunity for you to learn from them. I love my eccentric side — and I think differently on many topics. Dare ask me what—and why!

  Ecclesiastes 9:6  Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished; CAUTION! Poison Envy: Symptoms include, self-betrayal,   disillusionment and discontentment.  Envy is fueled by insecurity. When someone is prettier, has a better position, nicer home/cars/belongings, we feel inferior and place our own confidence under attack.  The dictionary term for ENVY ~a feeling of discontent or covetousness with regard to another's advantages, and/or success~   Envy is complex because it is borderline love & hate at the same time. It's the admiration of someone while coveting what they have. Envy creates an obstacle to the connection between ourselves and the person - because we are only focused on the threat to our confidence.  When feelings of envy arise, you may assume that the person is receiving the attention or adoration that you want for yourself; but, have you stopped and asked that person about themselves? (You will want to...

  Apostles' Creed   1. I believe in God the Father, Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth   Genesis 2:4  This is the account of the  heaven s and the earth when they were created, when the Lord  God   made  the earth and the  heaven s.   2. And in Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord John 3:16   For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.   3. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary   Matthew 1:20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. Luke 2:7  And she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for th...

Think about this: At the age of 33, Jesus was condemned to death. At the time, crucifixion was the "worst" death. Only the worst criminals were condemned to be crucified. Yet it was even more dreadful for Jesus. Unlike other criminals condemned to death by crucifixion, Jesus was to be nailed to the cross by His hands and feet. Each nail was 6 to 8 inches long. The nails were driven into His wrist, not into His palms as is commonly portrayed. There's a tendon in the wrist that extends to the shoulder. The Roman guards knew that when the nails were being hammered into the wrist, that tendon would tear and break, forcing Jesus to use His back muscles to support Himself so that He could breathe. Both of His feet were nailed together. Thus He was forced to support Himself on the single nail that impaled His feet to the cross. Jesus could not support Himself with His legs because of the pain so He was forced to alternate between arching His back then using His legs just to cont...

2 Timothy 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof:  from such turn away. Where Is God? In the midst of all the evil taking place in the world today, many people are asking themselves "Where Is God"? Many wonder if He is comfortable up in heaven - looking down on all of us - doing a whole-lotta-not-much...  This leads to the assumption that God is in a far-away place. So, Where Is God? Romans 14:12 says, “So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” The mere fact that people even ask "Where Is God" shows evidence that God is not operating in their lives ( Isaiah 59:2 Your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. )  Today's Christian - or the Modern Church has been so watered down - and not operating as Christians did in ancient times. In ancient times, they had One Holy Bible; today we have versions and variants that have used language to dumb-us-...

1 Samuel 26:24 And, behold, as thy life was much set by this day in mine eyes, so let my life be much set by in the eyes of the Lord, and let him deliver me out of all tribulation. 2 Samuel 22:18 he delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me. 2 Samuel 22:20 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me. 2 Samuel 22:44 Thou also hast delivered me from the strivings of my people, thou hast kept me to be head of the heathen: a people which I knew not shall serve me. 2 Samuel 22:49 and that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man. Job 6:23 Or, Deliver me from the enemy’s hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty? Psalm 6:4 Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies’ sake. Psalm 7:1 O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me...
