Apply ,Practice What I Heard

This morning I woke up and the verses about God's promises and all ran through my head. I was determined today to practice doing something towards the Kingdom of God today that I have a way to be a part of. I got alot done today and enjoyed doing it. Today while I pondered and am memorizing 2 Peter 1:3 I started thinking of how to apply this, thoughts and convictions started washing me it seemed. I sat and realized that for awhile that I am so full of some disappointments concerning the petting zoo. I hope I can get this out to where it makes since. As I sat and being convicted about for so long I have waited for things to happen at the petting zoo, I would try for a spell and quit or get discouraged , I use the reason cause of not enough support, but after reading and pondering on this one verse alone even, that is not the reason. I always think things like I can't just make things happen, with what can I do that? Well those are really crazy thoughts. Unbelieving in the fact that our God has already given us whatever we need to accomplish what He wants us to do. I don't believe and not only that I walk in it hardly enough. Making something happens means more than just waiting for something to happen. I made up a scrapbook page with the verses on it and put it on my wall where I will be looking at it every day. My added thought to it is: Not for the promises but for the denying of self. Areas I need to apply this is relationships and petting zoo. Stop giving up, learn all that I can and pass it to others, stop being so afraid, It is not the believing that makes you grow , it is the living out what we believe. I want to claim and have a part in the promises that he so freely has already given to me.

Paradise

I read about Eve again this morning .  Where she had everything perfect , she never doubted at all in God .  Then her enemy came along and told her how she could become like God knowing good and evil and she won’t die , so she ate of that temptation and gave in .  Then she experienced sorrow , death , pain , embarrassment and all of it first hand .  God told her that her enemy will be avenged and crushed.  …………….. After I read all of it and pondered on it and thinking of the Paradise she once lived in and no longer does .  I myself have no clue how to picture Paradise since I have never experienced it but it is beyond what our physical eyes can see , I mean I know there is beauty in creation all around us to take in daily .  Lol it’s a process sometimes, We have a nice yard .  We have free range chickens and ducks and well they think they own the patio furniture too so well the natural process happens, they poop on them lol . Then ya gotta spray them off and then let them dry before yo

Acceptance

Another chapter read .  Blows me away and encourages me . Just more confirmation on how much my past , all the bad impressions of life events has consumed so much of my attention and wanting these events not to have happened . Not only have all those events of awfulness robbed me , me being so consumed trying to erase so much , wish them away robbed me too . What a thought . Forever the events that has caused me so much pain and hurt , that I never came full circle of Acceptance it happened , crazy how I guess that alone has affected my relationships today . I guess accepting the past events was hard , to accept made me think I had to think it was ok it ever happened even thou it wasn't.   But that is not what it is about . Acceptance is basically saying the event took place and cant be changed or altered .  I have tried so hard to satisfy , pray them away,  change , deal with , cry them away , wish them away and none has never worked .  And to think this fight has not been with th
