day2.. phase2

GOoD morning friends

Dont know if this is proper or not, but I have stp. 2 pge. right behind this one, and I'm going back & forth 'tween pages almost following it sentence by sentence, in addition to that, I have yet a hand written journal by my side. Soooo

I do some reading b 4 sleep, 4 the sake of "Dont go 2 bed angry" so figure if I read positive I wake up pos.
In the reading last nite's subj. was being reborn and in the spirit of elaboration, I came up w/ no other person can stand in the same spot I'm standing, in other words, wherever I go, there I am, and if I happened to not like that person standing in my spot, get rid of him. but how?, and what would happen to the former person ? (commitee now in session !!)

FFW, this morn., stp 2: Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.Ecclesiastes 7:8 Hmmm.
Cpy/pste. stp. 2 : How do you 'build' your character? ...Each time you choose to do something kind, it strengthens that characteristic and you become a kinder person.

So I'm going OK, its not so much as getting "rid" of the person u dont like to be , rather its change that "person" to who u would like him to be right ? (or is it too much coffee ?)

1 John 4:16
And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Yes, it is too much coffee !! (so far) OK, coffee down-- take a walk--clear your mind-- I'm back .
John 8:32
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

John 8:44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

OK, dont bother "changing" the other "person" vahn , just KILL him.

John 13:34-35
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

vahn good grief Sounds like you should bring your lawyer to these meetings with you. Ask Him to help bring you discernment as you go along.

Glad to see you really seeking the Lord and what He wants to do with you. He does have changes ahead. Just be ready for them as they come along, and accept the changes God wants to make in you. Don't try and push them away. Just so ok God do with me as you choose.

luv ya my friend

Thanx 4 the rply mlg
Right now I'm thinking may b I'm just asking 4 too much, too soon, may b I'm just not ready 4 all this yet, may b if I give myself a break, away from all this 4 a couple of days or so ... I just simply dont know, but one thing I do know is this, if you get that many may b's in one sentence , you know your not running on all cylinders. so, it's take 5 time for this unit.

[mlg]

Yep, time to talk to Holy Spirit and allow Him to provide you with the answers you seek. Praying for ya.

luv ya

[vahn]

The Holy Spirit had and still has been providing answers , even before I ask Him, He doesn't take breaks, it is me that gets myself into too much of what I can't handle all at once, to b able to hear it.

By learning , practicing and applying the so called "weed eater" was able to make it through the hoop dealing with them ONE at a time , that was relatively easy , but sometimes , and I was fowarned of this, when all & everything comes at you at once, is the test I have not gone through yet, remembering also "the end is better than the beginning" saing by John, I know I wiil come out of it a better, stronger individual than I am now. Its just that theres too much going on at the homefront, the deadline w/ work neighbor this & buddy that, that I'm finding my self snapping % gnashing at everyone, and I know that is in no way the Lord wants me to serve Him. Some one told me one time , YOU MAY BE THE ONLY BIBLE THAT SOME PEOPLE YOU SPEAK TO WILL EVER COME IN CONTACT WITH.

Well, I just don't think its right to give them the "hail & brimstone" version of it.

[mlg]

No, but you also need to remember to not let the "worldly" things we have to do...get in our way of our walk with God either. If He places a task before you my friend....you best be willing to make some sacrificies to accomodate the time He needs from you.

luv ya

Dont realy know if this thought I have now belongs to todays page or should I wait for tomorrow's . but figured -2day's thought , 2day's page is safer- 4 who knowas what 2morrow will bring.

After re-reading, listening and prayer & meditation, which, by the way didn't come too easy, I just dropped everything & went 4 a long ride, ended up finding myself at a meeting.

On the way back, some thing told me , "u kno wat vahn ? These people may b right , I just wrapped myself w/too much of the world stuff"
Then (of course I had to disagree w/my own thoughts) I said "No that's not it ! what it realy was the fact that I could not concentrate on what I was supposed to concentrate on -God- BEACAUSE of the "world stuff"

It was my inability to make contact ! Mine, not Theirs !

And there you have it my friend...Truth.

luv ya
