JUST DUST


JUST DUST



As I peered down the grocer aisle, there she was..
Standing there with her red pigtails, and fancy hair bows.

I wanted to melt into the floor, and fade into the tile. 
I was wearing my polyester pant suit that my Aunt Lucy made me...

She was wearing store bought clothes; it was just one of the reasons 
she thought she was better than me.     

And well, some kids at school thought if you didn't have 
those fancy store bought things that you didn't match up. 

 I was just not good enough. 
See, my family didn't have all those fancy 
things that money could afford.

My daddy was a hard worker.
He worked from daylight to dark..
He was a carpenter.
  
My Mama and Daddy gave me and 
my brothers a wonderful, loving home.  
They provided for us well. 

They took us to church.
They taught us right from wrong. 
We were BLESSED with so much.  
They gave us ALL of the important things in life.  


GOD
LOVE
FAMILY


Sitting in the pew
at church, here we are..
I grew up in a small community
If you blinked, you missed it..

You see, everyone knew everyone
Good thing, but also a bad thing
Because it allowed
everyone to know your business.

I was raised that you go to church to worship
You mind your own business, 
and you be good to people.  

You respect your elders 
and mind your manners.  
Our parents taught us right..
It didn't mean we always did right, 
we were human too,
but we definitely were taught right.

There are God loving people in 
EVERY church,
but mind you, there are 
wolves in every pack.

Satan will have people 
working in church too; they 
will be there to discourage and to 
cause friction between God's people 
in any way that they can. 
Believe me they are working too.
IF God's people allow it, THEN IT WILL HAPPEN...

If GOD's people sit back or 

quit attending then you have let Satan win.  



NO ONE in CHURCH is BETTER THAN YOU...

because of

the way you dress, their name or ANYTHING else. 

Your job is not to sit back and listen... 
Feed off his word...

IT IS ALL JUST DUST!! 
You are not there to compete with someone on their fashion 
or with the vehicle they are driving. 

 YOU ARE THERE TO WORSHIP GOD
GOD DOES NOT CARE WHAT YOU ARE WEARING..He is not there going..
OH WOW...She has on a new LulaRoe Dress.  

 Check out his Rockports... 

Just for instance...
Check out my shoes

 YEP...
I obviously decided to wear this pair to church on 09/23/18



Do you like them?  

 I have another pair just like them at home.  

 SHOCKING ENOUGH..
I didnt get stuck by lightening...


GET REAL !!!

Children of GOD....

 GET BACK TO WORSHIPING GOD 
with your brothers and sisters...

 Stop letting SATAN run your mind...
PUT HIM BEHIND YOU !!!



GOD'S SON DIED FOR ON THE CROSS

 FOR EVERYONE



John 3:16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.



GOD MADE ALL OF US...



Genesis 2:7 

And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.




FROM DUST WE CAME and 
to DUST we will one day become again...





Ecclesiastes 12:7

 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.




If someone doesn't want to receive what you are 
telling them and you have tried your best...
Jesus also tells us in his word...



Matthew 10:14 

 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.


  
Come on people...

 and to anyone who thinks 

 you are a lil bit higher...

GET OVER YOURSELF...

 GOD LOVES US ALL THE SAME...

WE ARE ALL JUST DUST  



Have a BLESSED GOD-FILLED Day !!!!

Of Hens and Humans

  I saw a lot of human characteristics and actions while I sat there on the stoop at my Mama's Ruby's house.  You can learn a lot watching the happenings in a barnyard.   I know I did watching the many adventures of my grandparent's roosters and chickens.   This brought to me, after all of these years, in a featherly way what is common and wrong in the lives of people.   We are a lot like those birds. I have a beautiful group of chickens and roosters. They are all different varieties and colors.   Each one has its own style and personality.   I named one of those beautiful hens, Ellie Mae.  She was a victim of the other chickens’ unfair treatment.  She was a beautiful hen.  I would sit and watch her walk around the grass.  I was sitting on the porch cracking some pecans one day.  We were going to make some pies.   I noticed that sweet Ellie Mae had some feathers missing.   L ater that day, I saw what had ha...

No Not One

NO NOT ONE I was sitting on the doorstep with my friend Sophie one Saturday evening, and I said, “Sophie, ask your Mama if you spend the night at my house tonight.” “Hey, great idea”, she said.   We were only seven years old, and having a sleep over was way cool.   Then she said, “Oh wait, tomorrow is Sunday.   Are you going to go to church?” I said, “Well, yes, of course I am, but you can go with us.   Come on, you will like Sunday School.   It is fun.” “Oh, I don’t know”, she said.   “Why, don’t you want to go”? She said, “I don’t think God wants me in Heaven, I have been too bad.”     I giggled at Sophie, and she gasped..I quickly apologized And gave her a hug..and said: My dear friend My Dear Lord and Savior Gave his precious son’s life blood for you   All of us are too bad for Heaven… But NONE of us are too bad To be FORGIVEN...
