More on Adam & Eve

  Let's just jump into it!!   In the Bible, God created Adam & Eve. First God created the world then Adam to tend to the world then created Eve.    God created Adam capable to run the world all by himself.   Adam had everything he need to do so.   God created Eve so Adam was not lonely & they could mate to make more of their kind, just like the rest of creation.  


   Eve was not created to save Adam from being over worked or tell him what to do.  Eve was created for a sole purpose.  Eve was not Adam's savior from the world.    Adam was made complete to run the world without extra help from Eve.   

  Ladies look at your relationship with your guy.   Are you over stepping your bounds, thinking you are "helping out"?   God created your guy to be able to handle it all!   Review how you are doing things. Are you slowing down your guy by doing it all for him?  If you need help reviewing yourself, contact me.

Gracious

   To be gracious, what does that mean?  Can it be taught/learned?  Are some just born with it?  We all want others to be gracious towards our self, are we gracious to others?  Is it a level of maturity? 



   This word gracious started me to think about what it meant.   Do I have a complete understanding of what the word means?  I thought I did.  But as I dug around looking at what that word meant, I was surprised.   Made me start to wonder if anyone really knows what the word means.    I think we have a small understanding of what it means.

   As I dug, looking into the the meaning of this word, I found 4 different meanings to it.  I was surprised by this.   First surprise was that the Christian culture has a different meaning to it than the rest of the world.  Second surprise is that the rest of the world had 3 descriptions of the word.   Finding this out makes it clear why there is so much dysfunction in communication with each other in this world.   If everyone has different meanings to what words are, how can anyone understand what the other is saying???!!!   Ok, rant done, back to the post.

   I would like to encourage you to do your own digging of gracious & what it means.  Then see which definition you want to live by & then line yourself up to that.   Also next time you & another person might disagree on something or even start to communicate with each, think about it, are you speaking the same language??

News

  We all have heard of the term "Fake News" by this point.   There are dozens of different news channels out there bring their version of news to us.  Whatever channel you go to get your news from & trust the source, are you still thinking for yourself or are you blindly following what is being said?  Are you gathering facts, leaving out the emotions that is being brought to you or emotions that are being stirred up in you?  Are you able to just see the facts?  

  Can you listen for the facts from the news stories & then seek out more facts to make an educated decisions to form your own point of view on the subject?  Or are you getting wrapped up in the emotions of someone else or your own emotions & running with that?   Can you make a stand on what you believe in or fold when the crowd puts pressure on you? 

  With all the he said, she said in the news it can make your head spin.   Research to see what the agenda the news station/channel is.    The agenda will be carried through the news stories & other programs on that channel.   What are you allowing to flow at you?

  What are you ok with your kids hearing or seeing?  Lots of stuff in movies, TV programs & commercials.  Commercials are just not on TV anymore, it's on the internet, before DVD movie starts, before the movie starts in the theater & on billboards.   What are we being expose to?  Then the subject matter of the TV program or movie you are watching can form your view. 

   How is everything we are being expose to changing the way we think or even changing our values & morals ?  Is something that never was ok, now starting to be ok or not that bad?

Winter

  Yes, I said Winter.  Some are thinking & saying, "Why are you talking about Winter, it's still Fall. Don't rush it!!!!!"  I understand what you are saying, I enjoy Fall too!  Not rushing into Winter, Winter is the biggest thing I plan for.   Spring, Summer & Fall I look forward to, enjoy everything each season brings to me.   But Winter, I do a lot of planning & prepping for.




   For Winter there is the winter gear to make sure you have to stay warm when you leave the house.  The car needs extra care for winter, must have the emergency stuff in the car for winter in case something happens on the road,  the yard rack leaves, ready plants,  & summer stuff put away.  The house source of heat ready, extra food in case of storms, extra toilet paper too.   Some may make plans to get away from the snow & go on vacations. 

   Do you plan your life like for Winter readiness or are you more relaxed like Spring/Summer/Fall?
What do you do to plan or prep for the different journey's in your life?  How far ahead do you plan?
