If you had to describe your ideal life, what would it look like?
If you had to describe your ideal life, what would it look like?
If you had to describe your ideal life, what would it look like? First thing First, I want to give full credit to God and Jesus Christ for being the leaders of my life right now. I thank both of them for taking charge and making all of my decisions for me. My ideal life for me is to continue to pray every single day of the week and to continue to serve my Lord and Savior God and Jesus Christ on a daily basis. My ideal life for me is to remain positive and to stay clean and sober from alcohol and other drugs on a daily basis. I am learning how to be more transparent with God and Jesus Christ as well as with mankind and with myself right now. Primarily, my ideal life right now is to please God and Jesus Christ on a daily basis 🙏 🙌. I know that I am not perfect, but there is room for improvement in my overall behavior as well as all of my actions and the decisions that I am making for myself. Finally, I am a person who is allowing God and Jesus Christ to fully take control of my life, and all of my actions and decisions are in their control right now. I have fully surrendered my life to God and Jesus Christ right now 🙏 🙌. I can not go wrong with making the decision to allow God and Jesus Christ to help me with every single thing in my life. I am going to fulfill the Great Commission on a daily basis. I am serving God and Jesus Christ and all of mankind. I am learning how to be more transparent and positive right now. I am also learning how to communicate with God and Jesus Christ as well as with mankind without using vulgarity. I do remember that God and Jesus Christ are watching all of us 🙏 🙌. According to Matthew 12:36-37 says that for idol words that man may speak; he will give an account for it in the Day of Judgment. By your words, you will be justified, and by your words, you shall be condemned. May the Lord God be with all of you richly.

Beyond Your Strength

“Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.”
Genesis 21:5 (NIV)
I heard about an 85-year-old man who challenged the golf pro at his club. The pro bets $10,000 he can win and even offers a 12-stroke handicap; the old man declines the handicap. They play all the way to the 18th hole dead even. The old man’s drive lands in a sand trap while the pro breathes easy. Then the old man steps in, knocks the ball straight into the hole, and wins. The pro walks over, stunned. “I thought you said you can’t get out of sand traps.” The old man grins. “I can’t. Give me a hand.”
There is a lot you can still do when you get old. But having a baby is not on that list. Unless God decides otherwise.
The Bible makes sure you don’t forget how old Abraham and Sarah are. It says it three different ways. “Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him” (Genesis 21:5, NIV).
The same God who lights a sun so powerful its core burns at 27 million degrees also keeps two trillion galaxies burning across the universe. And this same God steps into one elderly couple’s home and gives them a baby.
That is the God behind the Gospel. You are not carrying the good news of Jesus in your own strength. You carry it through the power of the God who lit the universe on fire.
Maybe it’s a diagnosis that’s keeping you up at 3 a.m., a marriage that feels like it’s held together by a thread, or the kind of tired that sleep doesn’t fix. Stop and pray, “God, You’re bigger!” The God who flung galaxies and gave a 90-year-old woman a baby is not stumped by what’s beyond your strength today. Pray those three words and mean them.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for Your endless strength and power. I need you! At times, I get through my days as if everything depends on me and I’m exhausted by noon. Remind me today that the same power that raised Jesus Christ from the grave is working in me right now. I’m not carrying this alone. God, You’re bigger! I trust You, Lord. Amen.

What is the best concert that you have been to?
What is the best concert you have been to?
The best concert that I have ever been to was the Blue Man Group at the Spectrum Arena in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2004. This group plays some very nice music. I also liked the Kenny Roger’s and the Group Alabama at the Savage Hall Arena in Toledo, Ohio, in 1994. Both groups played very nice music as well.
Which is the best thing to do in your own city?
Which is the best thing to do in your city?
Honestly , my favorite thing to do in my own city is to maintain an excellent relationship with God and Jesus Christ right now. I will admit that I really need to make peace with everyone worldwide 🌐 🙏. I will always remember that it is God and Jesus Christ who are doing for me more than I am doing for myself. I know that I am supposed to attend church ⛪️ as well as AA Meetings on a regular basis. I have to accept people as they are as human being inside of Planet Earth 🌏 🌍 🌎 ❤️. I know that I have a long way to go especially when it comes to maintaining good conduct with God and Jesus Christ right now. Another objective of mine is to stop using vulgarity on a daily basis. I am asking God and Jesus Christ 🙏 🙌 to help me with my communication skills 🙏 🙌. I don’t have any business using vulgarity all of the time ⏲️. I also need to listen to God and Jesus Christ voices each day of the week 🙏 ❤️
Finally, I want to say that another thing that I need to do in my own city right now is to take someone to church ⛪️ with me each day of the week 🙏 ❤️. I want to fulfill the Great Commission on a daily basis. I want to help other people just like God and Jesus Christ are helping me every single day of my life 🙏 ❤️. The air that I am breathing each day belongs to God, and Jesus Christ 🙏 ❤️ Amen 🙏 🙌 I want God and Jesus Christ to fully accept me inside of their kingdom 🙏. Lord God and Jesus Christ, please pick me up because I have fallen 🙏 ❤️ Amen 🙏 When we are honest with God and Jesus Christ as well as mankind and yourself then you will be fully appreciated 👏 by God and Jesus Christ and mankind. Therefore, start things off by accepting yourself as a member of the human race.
