This post are my notes from Pastor John MacArthur’s sermon this past weekend “Who’s to Blame for the Riots?“ God is the God of truth. Satan is a murderer and a liar. This whole world is in the lap of the evil one and is bent on killing and lying. So we’re in a time of chaos and lies. Isaiah 1 is about the desolation of people turning away from God. Isaiah 5:20 tells us that “Woe to those who…
My goal in writing is for women to think about their choices. I believe women have been lied to in most areas. They are taught their entire childhoods to pursue higher education and careers. They are told to use birth control and that babies/children are inconveniences. They are taught that their worth and value comes from a paycheck and how many *likes* they receive on Facebook or Instagram. These are all lies, women. God has better plans for you! I…
This world is going through some turbulent times. First, it was the virus from China that literally shut down the world and now it is violence due to rioting in the streets. It’s scary times so I asked the women in the chat room how they keep their joy in the midst of this. Here’s what some of them had to say: “I bought some forest schooling books and I’ve been taking the kids out and spending a lot of…
This post is simply going to be a mix of different things I have been sharing lately. A lot is going on in our world right now. It’s nothing new. My grandparents went through two world wars and the Great Depression. Life on this earth has always been uncertain and full of tribulation. Jesus is the solid Rock which we build our lives upon and we trust Him. He still reigns and is sovereign over all. One woman made a…
We never had to teach our children not to be racist yet none of them are racist. Did you know that racism isn’t even a sin listed in the Bible but pride, hate, and not loving others is? In this case, many people of all races would be considered racist since most struggle with pride, hate, and not loving others. What is the answer to racism? Jesus Christ and His two greatest commands which are to love Him and love…
There’s a lot of talk about women empowerment these days. One church had a sermon titled “Empowering Women” and the sermon was on 1 Corinthians 14 about women being silent in the churches, it being a shame for them to speak in the churches, and if they have a question, they are to ask their husbands at home. Somehow, the sermon turned into empowering women so that they can even preach in the churches. If I were to give a…
Many today believe that God speaks to them personally. I have had women tell me that God told them to get a job and put their children into preschool. Others have told me that God told them to divorce their husbands. God never would speak to anyone something that is contrary to His Word. Many popular speakers and teachers tell about what God said personally to them. Does God speak to us individually? “Long ago, at many times and in…
This post is a comment from my post called Where Have All the Good Men Gone? I stumbled upon this blog while doing some research on feminine qualities. Before I address the topic at hand please allow me to comment upon how stunned I am to see such graciousness and civility extended in these comments towards each other, especially given what a acidic topic this is today. Such carefully thought out ideas and replies in this day and age is…
“Lori, could you please write a post for women who have been sexually abused as children? How to cope and/or heal from it? Are they still considered virgins? I love your page and appreciate your biblical teachings. God bless you!” It’s a sad thing that I have to even write about this but it is way too common, especially as our culture becomes more and more sexually depraved. Recently, I have been finding out more and more about the human…
Written by Anonymous I was reading some posts for and against reopening the country. One was talking about being selfish and it got me to thinking. There are those wanting to reopen yet they’re being classified as selfish. There are those that rely on all kinds of people to supply them while they cower in fear at home. Isn’t that being selfish too? You expect your garbage to be picked up. You expect the grocery store to be open so…
