Born and raised in Louisiana, mostly the Deep South. A registered nurse for decades. Presently living in NE Texas in the middle of nowhere which I love most of the time. Interested in almost everything and everyone. Absolutely love animals.
I’ve actually been a member since 2018, I just changed my name which reset my timeline.
As a child we hated being caught doing something wrong.
If we had good parents, we also knew that a swift punishment would be forthcoming.
Why then do we despise 'the correction' from YHVH (God)?
If He loves us then He will correct us.
Paul wrote about this to the children of YHVH (God).
Hebrews 12:5-8
He is going to correct us whether we acknowledge it or not.
We keep hoping and praying for something other than what we deserve.
Look people, YHVH (God) wants our love.
If we love our country, our house, our way of life, our (...whatever) then He
is not our first and most important priority.
Remember the very first and utmost commandment?
"You shall have no OTHER GODS before me."
It is better to pray that you are found worthy to enter into heaven than to
save a 'temporary' way of life.
Just saying. Peace.
@col4YHVH Ohhh, the stories I could tell about getting caught (and my punishment) doing something wrong as a child.
