Want More

Shammah was teaching tonight about denying ourselves and believing in God's promises. I can't do his teaching any justice so I will express what I have been thinking about. Where we started reading from 2 Peter 1:3. Which the title of it says Growth in the Faith. This is a very powerful verse : For His divine power has given us everything required for life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness. That is an amazing thought that since His divine power has provided everything for life and godliness, we have no excuse at all. Wow. Well, I am sitting here looking at this and for once I am not sitting feeling like oh no I can't ever reach that. I am thinking I have work to do with help of course. I get so feeble minded so often unfortunately that I am still trying to learn some of the basics, sadly to say. I don't want to be that way. When Shammah said that the only difference between Abba and us is that he denies himself to attain to that divine power. I appreciate this teaching a whole lot. It definitely has given me some food for thought , just the two lines of what we read. It makes me think of in Genesis in the beginning when Adam and Eve were in the garden inside of Him.This is it for now.

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
