A Day in the Life

Hello, World!

As of yesterday, I have all my loans taken care of. (Well, one is still waiting in an envelope in my desk, but it's not in the bank and it isn't in my purse so I won't spend it).

My bathtub faucet has sprung a leak and I had to turn the hot water off that goes to my bathroom sink and tub as a result. I am now stuck with taking showers until I can afford a plumber to get it fixed. I don't like taking showers because the water pressure isn't enough to wash my hair with.

Yesterday I delivered all the Avon I had, except for the one I have to deliver on Thursday. And, I went to the bank to deposit my check.

I played some slots today. I think I'm burned out on slots now. (or is it "bummed out?"). Yeah, I didn't win anything. I've decided it's okay for once a month fun, but not something I need to do often.

I put in my application for a much higher paying job that provides benefits. I love my job at the Pitt Grill, but I really need to get some of my debt paid off. I can't do that barely scraping by. I took the advice of a friend...after taking a deep breath and thinking about it.

Ya'll pray for me, I need this!

I went and ate at the Dixie Diner yesterday. I took the opportunity to leave some Avon books with the staff there. The food was great! (I LOVE the rolls!)

I watched the latest episode of 9-1-1 Lonestar today, and then Episode 1 of season 15 of Ancient Aliens.

I made a glass of tea and sat it on an upside down bucket by my bed and took a nap after that. The alarm went off on my phone and as I reached out to grab it off my table, Milo jumped out bed, bumped into the bucket and tea spilled everywhere. I had to get out bed, then, to clean up the mess. Sigh...I just washed clothes. Now I've got two towels in the dirty clothes hamper.

I cleaned most of the kitchen today. The humidity has all my salt shakers clogged up.

Ya'll have a blessed day!

God and Ancient Aliens

We've all seen the show on the History Channel about Ancient Aliens.

I am not so arrogant as to say that there are no aliens on other planets. But I am not foolish enough to say that God did not create them or to call the creation gods.

It is okay to seek after knowledge. It is okay to do research on ancient aliens. It is okay to seek to go to other planets in order to better our way of life and seek out new alliances.

We must remember however, knowledge, which can be enlightening, can also be a stumbling block.

There is only one God, who is, was, and always will be. My God has no beginning or end. He is infinite. Anything, and I mean anything, that leads you away from God, is of Satan.

So while you are doing your "research", be sure and keep in perspective the definition of creation versus the definition of creator.

Understanding science does not lead you to understand God. Understanding science lead you to understand God's works. There is a difference.

God creates His creation to create. As long as His creation follows Him and His laws, whatever it creates is good. But if His creation decides to elevate itself into being called gods, and seeks to create in order to control and manipulate and do evil deeds, the creation becomes bad.

Once the original sin entered into the equation God's creation became flawed. They forgot that there is only one God and it is not them or us.

There are too many today who seek to put someone else or something else in the place of God. I say again, there is only one God.
