Food For Thought- Christ Was Born

I have been making crafts , cards and such for my friends. I started thinking of nativity scenes and the thought of Our Savior came to be. Since I have had barns with animals and know how the stable can be. Nativity scenes always look so pretty.
It gave me a perspective I have not thought about before. I know alot of times the trying to make things about my life and the way that I am better than it is came to mind.
Christ for sure started his long suffering for us long before the cross. I mean, the stable I am sure was smelly, plus the poky hay in the manger.
Praise God He loves me and I don't need to polish my life. Thou that is a fight not to want to polish it up. I hope to encourage others that our lives are redeemed in such a real way.

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
