Christian Separateness

Read Psalms 19: 7-9, 11; Ezekiel 3: 17-19, Mark 12: 17, John 17:15, Acts 4:31, Romans 13:7, 1 Corinthians 6: 9-10, Philippians 4:8, Colossians 3:23.

Keeping separate from the world, wow this is a subject that I like to talk about more in detail with those around who are looking for answer on how to maintain High Morals; these are troubling and disturbing times that are hard to deal with but, with proper association the times seem to go better when making sure that you are on the watch at all times.

What do we see in the world today?  I see those fornicating in many ways such as cohabitation without the pursuit of marriage, those having a wife as well as a mistress in order to keep an interesting sex life, going by what they see in media such as stars doing things that are immoral but, no one thinks its wrong and, many other raunchy things that make me wonder what people I am forced to share this day in age with.

Positive association, excellent meeting attendance, prayer, proper bible study, and preaching work is the foundations that are needed to maintain spiritual conduct.

As a young adult I find those whom live outside god's laws and the scriptures listed above to be living a life of no morals or very little morals; I also find that many feel that being chaste is old fashion and, marriage is a waste of time.

The bible itself provides five components for true Christians to follow and, scriptures that are based on these five important components that Jehovah god has provided.

• Marriage Union must be honorable
• Headship principle must be respected by Christians
• Christians parents responsibility by children
• Christian should marry only Christians
• Polygamy not scriptural

I am going to provide scriptures later on when writing about these five components of the proper christian marriage and, this is one way of keeping separate from the world in the view of marriage for, there are those whom do not think marriage is important as it is.   Marriage is very important and there are benefits of being married as well as not being married; there are ways that marriage protects you as well as how marriage keeps the morals alive and well.

A Chinese Proverb once said "A vacant mind is open to suggestions", now keeping all of this in mind could help make sure that you are not going to make the wrong decisions.  Marriage on the basis of Christian and secular marriage is a start for some but, there are others out there I can also give by example.

Have you ever notice magnets with opposite poles attract? Have you notice those with the same poles repel?  What does that mean for you when you are dealing with people of the world and, ones whom are true Christians?

Things that we see in the world can make us like two same poles that repel but, seeing what we see in God's word the bible attracts us like two opposite poles.   Which is true when we have proper bible study on the normal daily basis and, more importantly looking at God's laws that are given to us in the scriptures in the bible help us to better understand what is expected of us as true Christian.

Now in the time of World War II during the Nazi era there were Christians in the concentration camps along with other religious groups; a true Christian would not stop his duties that have been set in place for him by God's words the bible but, we would try to perform any task put in front of him no matter how difficult that task may have been in order to show respect to a higher authority.   This holds true to this very day when we are obeying the laws of the land and the laws that Jehovah God has set in place for us which is even greater.   Remember what was said in Mark 12:17" Pay Cesar's things to Cesar but, Jehovah's things to Jehovah"; this is one of two important scriptures that keeps us separate from this world another scripture that I would like you to read is Acts 5: 29-32.   In addition please read Romans 13: 1,7 which talks about obeying the laws of the land which in turn keeps up separate from this world; it also provides a foundation of what keeps us different from those who are violating both laws the laws of man and the laws of Jehovah.

Interesting after you read these scriptures that what I am trying to tell you is nothing that is not true and, things that we see all the time no matter what part of the world we go into because we can see that this day and age people are drawing away from Jehovah God rather towards him.   There are many things that are out here that can keep us drawing away from Jehovah rather than closer to him, for example, if I make some money off of my dogs by fighting and not doing it again its okay-one step closer.   If I go on this pornography site and watch these two women make love to one another and turn away to never look at it again its okay-one step closer.   If I play this game that is consider violent but, I am only scarying people till the point they kill themselves, the people aren't real so that's okay because killing 2 or 3 out of thirty is not too bad-one step closer.   This guy invented me to have a party and he'll give me $100 which is not too bad because you are being paid to have fun-one step closer.

Things like that and many other things can make the difference in how a person maintains moral conduct, I also would like you friends to read 2 Corinthians 7:1 on keeping physically and spiritually clean because as we see there are not too many of us other that are keeping these standards.

I would love for you to be back next week on another article that is based on God's words the bible and the article is entitled "God's Friends Do what is Good"; I hope that this one has helped you to rethink your moral conduct as well as help you to enrich and influence others to follow the same trait.

Modest, proper money management and more

I had to rethink my standards once again today......I was not happy of what I saw in my quest to becoming a woman of high morals and, understanding myself like a true Christian woman.  I have a hard time sacrificing a few things and learning what is more important but, I have come a long way of trying to be myself and embracing things that I have been overlooking in the past.

My first step was and is modesty which is not as bad as I thought it was but, now I see that there are more and more reasons to keep living a modest existence rather than that of what I thought was cool; I also learned that I don't have to spend a ton of money to make me look good there are other ways of looking my best but, it does not mean that every one is going to accept me for who I am.

My first step is probably going to be my hardest, getting my hair done at a cosmetology school and pay them to do it.  I found three in the nearby area and, I figured that they can do a decent job and this will help me progress on to be a feminine woman and keeping a modest appearance.

I am wondering what will be my look after a few months of having my hair done and my nails done with these girls because this is going to be a change that I hope is for the better.  This will also help me with the proper money management that has eluded me for many years and, I need to manage money better in unexpected cases as well as expected.  I have been neglectful of the reality that has been in my face for the longest and, it seems that others are not looking at it the same way.

I also need to learn to stick to one thing and put my mind to it and, stop going across the board....when I learn to accept somethings I will be a happier person.  

Greater Importance for Christian Morals

After attending my Christian congregation meeting on Separateness from the world, I learned that there are more things that I needed to do in order to maintain better conduct and, now I need to learn more about myself as a person and look for other forms of pleasure rather than doing things that can hinder my love for, Jehovah God and other fellow believers next Sunday I will have the full transcript ready of what I learned from my Sunday meeting and, I hope that you all enjoy it.  

Its been a real long time since I last updated

Its been a while since I've been on blogger and, there are times that I find myself wondering what will become of my blog if I ever stop blogging; it looks quite lonely at times and, I know there are not much things that I can do since I have nothing to show for it.   I am going to just be me and, express my feelings like the way I was meant to and, I wonder will I learn in my journey of being independent as well as unique.

What I have learned so far in my life and where do I go from here?

I learned that there are five important aspects in my life such as proper eating, exercise, getting enough sleep, cleanliness and maintaining my spirituality in check at all times; the other things that I have been chasing for are unimportant and don't help me out at all unless its found necessary by the higher calling.  I learned that soon as I am finished with my schooling if its meant I can go on to graduate school but, if its not meant to be then I have nothing else to push for but, maintain a career at the status that it is now.  

I learned that I don't need a nice car just something to get me where I need to go, and I learned that I do not need a upscale house just something to keep me safe and dry in the coming storms based on the seasons.  I can be happy with the small things in life rather having the big things in life.   I do not need to jet set to Hawaii every year but, I can be happy going to the mountains or the lake whenever I get the chance.

There are a lot of things that I can be happy about and, I can find ways of enjoying myself like take a day trip to the coastlines and, spend time with close family and friends.  I do not need those rich things to be happy nor make me complete; there is more to life than can be imagined.  

I don't judge people on what they have nor envy what they have anymore because I learned that there are times that the grass is not always greener on the other side; sometimes we need to rethink our beliefs and go on from there. I learned to accept gifts from people who think about me and care about me enough to get it for me without me asking; in my younger years I was quite selfish but, now I've changed because life is not about storing up treasure and things like that; life is more enjoying it with those whom share the same interest as you and believe in you no matter what.

I have learned so much and, I tend to reflect better on it since my recent experience of dealing with people of all works of life; so what if I am given handmade socks or a sweater that has many colors that may not fit together.   Its the thought that counts doesn't it?

Where do I go on from here? 

I go on to make myself a better person in the eyes of my heavenly father Jehovah God, I will put my faith, my trust and my strength in him at all times.  I am going to live my life in his guidance and not the guidance of man.  I have so much to offer and I am willing to submit to my elders and be taught things that will benefit me in my life compared to those who do not wish to listen.

I want to learn and I want to know more as much as possible.  

Thank you for visiting and see you when the paths meet again.....

Nature Smarts

In my other blog I mention the beauty that the world has to offer and that is so true but, how does one know about the cloud formations, wind patterns and the environment in which the live in? That is called Nature Smarts which are important to some people because in order to survive in the wild they need that type of smart to move on to the next level. 

Not to many people are good enough to understand the nature that surrounds them so, when certain statements mention "you wouldn't last one day in the wild" most of the time that is a saying that you do not have the nature smarts to survive in the wild.

Most mistakes people make in the wild is not knowing the directions they are going and to bring enough food with them before they make their trip into the great wilderness so, they end up injured or dead. 

There are different types of smarts but, do you think that you have nature smarts.

Cute purses that are cruelty Free friendly and more

Hello My Friends

I went to do some shopping yes, shopping for some new cute bags because you can never have to many bags depending on whatever the design or price.  So for my friends in the internet I can share you the bags that I have bought and new stuff that I carry in them with me at all times because I am what you can say the "Nice girly fru fru weirdo" yeah so here are my new clutches!

This is the cute Bunnies chasing carrots bag which is good for those days when I am really feeling Girly Girly Girl like the great on days when I feel like being Florence Joyner. 

This one is a cute bag as well when it's for those days when I want to look different like the 1930's or 1940's attire look because it goes so nicely with rather than those Lana Marks bags which are crazy expensive seriously $1,000.00 for a simple clutch.

This is the special bag the bag that is used for those certain occasions so, whenever I want to have that special time with somebody this is the bag to do it with. What great about all these bags they're inexpensive and can deal with anything that life throws at them so, when shopping for a new bag buy one of these.

Until Again my friends Ciao!

5 interesting things I found on the internet today

Hello my friends

Today I played Professor Purse again and my day outcome was Creative Carrie which is what I am very creative in all natural aspects of my being.  I found five interesting things on the internet after doing my daily purse personality bid.

At number five what not to wear at your to your high school Reunion

Well that is something that I do not plan on attending in the near future because believe it or not mine is coming up around when I turn 27 or 28 but, I know a lot of them probably won't remember me if I do come.

Although mother always did state that it's good to have a reference so, this video can be something I look at when this time comes but, there might be updates between now and then.

Number Four another interesting thing I found on the internet is these perfumes that are suppose to smell like a book, a brand new car, play-doh, Burger King Whoppers, and much more odd things.  I probably would buy the new car one to spray in my car every now and than but, I do not think those other odd fragrances will ever be popular with the general public but, who knows.

Number Three FB is allowing younger users? How young can a user be because I know a 10 year that has a FB account so, unless he is lying then how much younger are they going to allow new users but, by the time everyone has a facebook like myspace it's going to be old news because when it first came out it only college students knew about it and now the man who created it is a billionaire.  Wish I was that lucky but, I am not.

Number two a deaf toddler can hear his mother!!! That is so awesome because I can never imagine what it's like to be deaf or blind but to be able to see or to hear for the first time is wonderful.

The number one thing that I found interesting on the internet is rude behaviors in other countries. I can honestly tell you that you can never believe it until you see it so, when I am out abroad in other countries then I can be sure to make aware of what is rude and polite.

10 Surprising Ways To Offend People In Other Count

Wow who knew that certain normal everyday things we do can offend others in other parts of the world so, when aboard my friends tread with caution. Until again Ciao!  

Today is Saturday the Refresher day

Hello Everyone

As you have already know it's Saturday!!!!! Yes the day of days where everyone gets to refresh and start a new slate for the next week!

What to do? What to do?

There are so many ways to have fun on a glorious day! Wake up and make a refreshing Melon Refresher Smoothie? If not that a Pineapple Pronto Smoothie? Or Both?

At home facials or mini spa day at the spa like the basic Manicure and pedicure followed by a 40 minute massage.

Play a card game or an online game.  My favorite is Haunt the House because of the little children screaming with high pitch tones that can heard through the whole house but, it does not phase the adults in the house. In other words so much to do in the line of entertainment without being bored to death.


Flash Games and Embed Code

Flash Games and Embed Code

In addition everyone can sleep in because they deserve it because of the long weekdays that is expected of us.

Saturday is great but it only last for 24 hours so, this lovely Saturday morning shall be one with happiness whenever possible.

Wikihow on how to live cheaply which cracked me up

Hello My friends

I was reading Wikihow to see on how to budget for a new car  and I found this article on how to live cheaply.  Now I figured that my lifestyle was very cheap because I had an apartment that cost $435 a month excluding water which cost about $490 so still cheap.  I have a car that does not need a lot of gas only $15 for a full tank that's not expensive nor is my car insurance $235 twice a year.  I pay virtually nothing on my two cell phones and my landline is also cheap because it's the basic local calls and long distance which is like $28 to $36 a month.  Internet is also cheap no more than $50 and all other expenses come out to $300 total. Now after reading this article I want to know what is consider SUPER CHEAP! I thought my life is cheap by the budget I live so, I read this article and it tells me to live without a car.

Not possible because where I live you need a car to get around because if you don't then you will be angry and living without a computer is not easy nowadays because computers are used for everything.  However  the article also gives ways on how to entertain myself if I ever decide not to use a computers so, if I choose not to one day there are other ways of amusing myself.

Seriously my life is not consider cheap but, SUPER CHEAP!?! How is this possible? I could never imagine how cheap a persons life could ever be because everything else in the article was duh because some of those tips I use day-to-day basis such as buy everything generic except meat because I hate generic meat. 

I do not buy clothes that often except stockings when I get runs in them but, I do have 12 dresses, 10 pair of dress pants, 5 pairs of jeans, 5 shirts ( tees, long sleeves, tank tops and etc), 4 dozen scarves, 5 belts, 4 pairs of heels, 2 flats, 2 sneakers, and tons of sandals.  I have very few Jewelry because I buy ones that go with my outfit to day-to-day basis.  My make up is simple and my nails are always done weekly for manicures and biweekly for the pedicures. 

So what is my terminology!?!?!?! This is a question of all questions for today what level of cheapness do I stand? I guess I will never know until that terminology ever comes.

Until Again my friends Ciao!

What to carry in a purse

Hello Again

It's been a while thank you for seeing me every once in a while.

Today is a rainy day that has come to see me once again in my lonely apartment just blogging to the world what I keep in my purse.

In my purse I carry money that can last me through the whole week so if anything comes up then I got it covered. How much should a girl carry with her a lot people say $20 but I carry about $200 but not in $100 I have in pennies, nickles, dime, quarters, $1, $5, $10, $20 bills.   There are times that I do not want to always refer credit or debit as my means of payment.

I have two gas cards for the same gas company. Now why do you have two gas cards that go for the same company?  Well one card gives me 5 cents back on each gallon I use which is my around the town gas card an another gives me 15 cents when I am going out of town so, either way I am getting money back no matter which card I use and I have good credit because of it.

I have compacts to make sure that everything facial is up to par and not I do not share any of them because they are mine and compact are not expensive.

I carry nail polish yes, nail polish clear top coat to keep my manicure looking great until the next one.

Yes I have a credit card and a several debit cards, What you have several debit cards? Yes, I do indeed have several bank accounts and Credit Union accounts that I have debit cards. Only 1 bank account and 1 Credit union account has money that sees the light of day my other financial accounts are in the dark but not dormant.

You have a cell of course right? Yes, I do have cellphones....What you have two? Yes, one is my Smartphone that I use everyday all the time and I have a prepaid phone that I use when it's certain situations when my Smartphone cannot be used. Yeah I like to be prepared for any situation because I never rely on one phone like I do not rely on my cards.

What else do you have in that purse?

My State Issue I.D card and My Drivers License of course because how am I suppose to get around without those two important things?

I have an Umbrella in case of those days when we have those unexpected showers like today.  Always a good idea to be ahead of every thing whenever possible.

I also have my chap stick and lip gloss with me at all times because why I need my lips to keep looking good whenever I do find that right guy to kiss.

Anything else you have that we need to know about?

Lighters and matches but there are not for making my lungs black.  I have them if I need anything in a time of emergency so, they are there until needed.

Also my lady products because I can't go anywhere without that also, a first aid kit in case of emergency as well in addition a sewing kit.

Anything else?

Well that is for me to leave for the a imagination.  So until I feel like blogging again Ciao!
