The movie titled 50 Shades can best be described by all of the above.  NO, I have not read the book nor have I seen the movie.  Do I plan to?  Absolutely not.  The saying garbage in/garbage out is very true.  Not exactly using those words, but we are told in the Bible that what we allow ourselves to hear and see, can corrupt our inner selves. When our flesh and minds are fed this deprivation,  our sinful flesh desires to act it out. 

Do you allow your children to watch this corruption?  Of course not!  Do you not realize that your Heavenly Father desires that we not watch it or be exposed to such corrupt, wicked and perverted things?  Believe me, He does not want His children exposed.  With every ticket sold, satan rejoices, because another person has chosen to come over to his dark side.  Don't believe that?  Well, think again!  This movie is the work of satan and his followers.

The sexual act was designed to express physical love between a man and a woman after their union in God's presence.  It was designed to reproduce this world.  It was designed as something to be beautiful and shared out of a deep love and devotion.  WOW, have we not totally messed that up.

When we participate in such lewd and often physically harmful acts, we are telling God that we have chosen our own way of pleasuring our flesh.  

People who watch this filth only add another nail to the wall that separates humans from our Loving God.  Did you add a nail?

Jumping the gun!

I really want to be just that....Joyful Always.  But WOW, I do often fail accomplishing that.  

Yesterday I promised a gentlemen that I would help him bid a job for the USACE.  He really caught me off guard as I was getting ready to leave to go to the post office, get gas, grocery shop at 2 different stores, when he ask for my help....get my drift?  I agreed because I really was in too big of a hurry to find out more details about what and where he would be bidding the job for.

Fast forward, I was regretting my hasty decision.  Ill with myself and the unknown person who told him I was an expert at bidding job.  I was not "being joyful" at all.  I had made a date of 2PM today to help him. I was dreading the approaching appointment when he arrived.   Funny, how we "anticipate" what will happen.  Turns out the gentlemen was very nice and really appreciated what help I could give him.   Although I was not familiar with the district he was making a bid for, just a little knowledgeable reading and I had it figured out. 

God wants us to slow down and help others, His word tells us that.   I was jumping the gun and almost lost my blessing from being able to help a fellowman.
