Where did I come from and where am I going? The exact answer is in understanding, always growing. In my daily life, I can say, I'm coming from here going to there. Beyond that realm of speculation, the answer is somewhere. Much confusion in my life has been surrounded by this query. I have found the very answer lies, Closeness to God is the Best Theory.

Love and Kindness go a long way In most any situation I would say The more you give, the more you get Never having any doubtful regrets Love and kindness will bring out the best in anyone Even when they have lost all hope in almost everyone The next chance you have, give all the Love and kindness you can spare For this will surely make this world a much better place, when we share October 21, 2022 Mark Waldrop Inspired from On the Road with Steve Hartman An assistant manager at McDonald's Gave so much Love and Kindness to The young people employed at her store.
With which are you more satisfied in life, now or then? Some may ponder and say now, others may say then.

Does God take care of all the little details for you? It's often easier to see the big ones and let the little ones slip through. The closer we get to God, the picture becomes clear. Standing at a distance, the details become a smear. Large details are easier to see from quite a distance. The smaller one's come into clear focus if we only listen. No matter where you find your station in life closeness to God will bring you much less strife.

Who is your trainer and where do you meet them? Do you have a membership? Is it at a local gym? Do you perform exercises to get into shape? So that an early grave you might escape. Do you have a trainer for your spiritual body? Where do you meet them? Is it a place where God’s word you study? Unlike physical training, to lengthen your earthly life. Here, learning about God’s Son Jesus will bring you eternal life. This could be a Church or a meeting with friends. Wherever reading God’s word, never ends. The more you exercise your Spirit, the closer you get to him. You feel his Love and mercy. His face becomes not nearly so dim. You will hear the trainer's every word. Realizing that it is you, he has heard. October 19, 2022 Mark Waldrop Inspired by Thomas Bernard ZL3TOM
The unforgettable Day the Earth stood so very still was the Glorious Day, Jesus obeyed His Father's Will The darkest day that will ever be Nothing like that will we ever see On Resurrection Day a bright light from Heaven shown through. Looking directly into that light could easily blind you At night when there is an absence of light The warmth of his love will become so bright You will never be anxious in the dreary dark again. When you meet Jesus and ask him to come live within. October 19, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Annie and Sarah are two of the nicest people you would ever want to meet. They take care of you at Dr. Edward Mea’s office, they are so sweet. Even when you don't arrive on time, they don't act like you've committed a crime. I know they are very busy and have much to do. They always take their time when helping you. I'm not saying they are angels in any way. They seem to fit the description I would say. Both of their names are so easy for me to remember. Annie Sarah was my Mother's name She was so sweet and tender. October 17, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Everybody needs a hug even your dog or cat More important family and friends deserve that Why is a hug so important you might ask? It's the genuine love that's transferred by the task.

Aren't you glad you have Joy in your heart. Since you met him, He will never depart. You have died with Him in sin. Only to be raised with a new song within. Joy Joy Joy will lift your spirits high every day. Even in difficult times, you see your situation in a much different way. How can this possibly be you might ask? Only God Himself can perform this task. Where do I find this God you are talking about? Finding Him through His Son Jesus, there is no doubt. How can I be sure he will be there for me? You can't unless you bow before Him on bended knee. He came into my heart when I asked him one day. From then on I can count on Him being with me, to stay. Heb 1:9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy." October 16, 2022 Mark Waldrop
Temptation tests you to your very core. It so very easy to enter the wrong door. If it's all good, no temptation will there be. In the absence of good, temptation we will not see. So many temptations, we can't begin to count. We can only be aware, to credit the good to our account. To steer from the many snares in life focus on the light of Jesus Christ. Physical or Spiritual temptation, a decision must be made. Choosing the right path, Peace and Love of God will be displayed The choice is never easy, for the wrong may seem so right. One can only discern by focusing on the truth of God’s Holy Light. Mat 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
