Matthew 5:44-45 AMPC [44] But I tell you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, [Prov. 25:21, 22.] [45] To show that you are the children of your Father Who is in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the wicked and on the good, and makes the rain fall upon the upright and the wrongdoers [alike]. https://bible.com/bible/8/mat.5.44-45.AMPC

I see the amount of adrenaline junkies going from one social media site to the next looking for disaster. As God's kids we are not called to that. Just the opposite we are to show love, bring peace and encourage and help each other. They are to be able to know us by how we love one another. Do we?

Philippians 4:6-7 AMPC [6] Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. [7] And God's peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. https://bible.com/bible/8/php.4.6-7.AMPC

My God is able to provide Joy, Peace-filled heart, strength and encouragement. Reach out to His Son, Jesus, and accept it.

It was the purpose of all that halftime stuff etc...division. Don't be part of it. Be that agent of Peace and Unity. Let it start with US.

As Kid Rock said, haul out your Bible. pick a fav version. Mine is one of 3...AMPC, LSB, NLT. if ebibles are easier, Do YouVersion. lots of versions and devotionals to pick from and larger fonts if you need them.

question for all of you...why as a 79 year old happily married Christian woman is the only friend requests I get from men? It makes me nervous so I only ok those i recognize or females. Don't wish to look wussy or such. But it is just something that is uncomfortable for me.

so blessed to have a site like this that you do not have to put up with tons of political stuff and ads and garbage. Thank You so much

May the Lord Bless each of you as we come in to a New Year and a New Challenge!

John 14:27 Legacy Standard Bible 27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful.

So looking forward to a free speech christian forum where us married ladies don't get "followed" by guys with questionable motives. I am here to share Christ, a laugh and some encouragement.
