• I haven't read this yet. However I can say that she is correct. One thing I completely hated was when people said " it is for the best" "you have other Children" "the baby is in a better place than here" Or " your son is in a much better place". I let them know it. Another thing I can say is NEVER GO TO A DOCTOR OR NURSE OR BUSINESS FOR "SOMEONE THAT HAS LOST A CHILD(REN). YOU DON'T GRIEVE THROUGH A BOOK OR WHATEVER "PROFESSIONALS" TELL YOU. I joined with other parents that have lost a Child or Children. "the compassionate friends". The Best thing to do is, remain silent and let the grieving parent talk to you, having someone to listen, helped me, in a way.

    Rhian Mannings, a woman who lost her husband to suicide after the death of their one year old son, makes an excellent point about grief:

    Never tell anyone that you know how they feel, even if you have suffered the same or similar loss as they have and the reason why this might be is because even two people who have suffered the loss of children can be impacted differently; one may be impacted by the loss of their offspring more deeply than another who has been bereaved of their offspring and no two people navigate through their grief the exact same way and there could be a number of different reasons for that.

    One thing is for certain in that we do have to be careful what we say to someone who has suffered the loss of a loved and especially if they have suffered the loss of a child, even if we have suffered such losses ourselves.

    Grieving people can take offense to even those things said to the out of the best of intentions. It is hard to imagine how or why even those who have suffered loss would have to choose their words wisely when attempting to comfort and console someone else who has also suffered a similar loss, but this item definitely gives the reader something to think about, especially if they happen to know one who has experienced the loss of someone they held dear.

    What you should NEVER say to someone who's grieving
    Rhian Mannings named some of the insensitive things she was told after becoming a widow at 33, in a bid to make people 'more thoughtful' in how they communicate with the bereaved.

  • I'm sharing this again, in hope that it will wake some up.

    How can the government lose people
    that are in the system?

    I can't understand why nor how the government can "loose" any information regarding illegals. Here is why. I worked for the state of Illinois, in 2005-2005 I worked in a division of DHS. It was called "All Kids" at the time. It was called many different names, the latest being "obama care". I know that this was at least in one other state as well. I and someone else commented on a post on MeWe. It was going on in the 70's as well. It was an, "insurance" if you remember. BUT it was more than that.

    We had 2 floors, of a state building, filing cabinets, banana boxes everywhere. Yes banana boxes lined the hallways. Boxes on top of filing cabinets.

    EVERYONE was entered into the system.

    The illegals were brought up, by the government. In Illinois, they were GIVEN: Homes, Businesses, Clothing, Phones, Vehicles, Free Insurance, Phones, EVERYTHING. Kicker, I will never forget, a so called "family" of 3, different last names, came across my desk. They were up from the border within 3 days time. They were taken to Chicago, to the Social Security office. They received, along with Everything else, $5,600 a month. It was called "temporary" Social Security.

    BUT there was no such thing as "temporary" and Illegals weren't getting anything for free. That is the answer that they would give anyone that tried to find out about it.

    I had a friend that I had known from school, she always worked, till she found out that she had MS. Three different times, she went to try to get on disability SS. Was told, no, she could work, the third time, she was in both leg and arm braces. Years later, she was Finally able to get a lousy $300.00 a month.

    My ex husband, was a walker (mail carrier) (walked the hills to deliver mail) for the post office in St. Louis. He was going through a lot of pain, had 5 discs rubbing. Bone on bone. He called me and told me that he was told there was no such thing as "temporary" SS. Because at the time, he was going though the post office, and they were NOT willing, as we all know, it is hard to get "workman's comp". So he went to the SS office.

    I knew, of people that were AMERICAN'S that were NOT making it on the EXTREMELY low SS, they had paid into.

    I tried every way to get transferred into a different department, and wasn't allowed. So on December 5th 2005, I quit.

    So, you see, many of you think that the illegals have JUST been coming up in RECENT years, no, but for DECADES.

    And, you now see, if you didn't already know that YOU are paying, IF you are on "obama care" and they never did.

    The illegals ALSO received the Money for seven years, once started. Which was immediately.

    They don't come WALKING up in flip flops, New Clean clothes, New phones, etc. That is all staged.

    The only "good thing" that came out of this. I knew what was going on, and can tell everyone, everywhere. I tried then, and no one would listen.....

    Are you listening now....

  • 1960's DECOUPAGE BOX Purse by Anton Pieck Vintage Used
    $255
    In stock
    Lincoln, IL
    FROM NOW THROUGH DECEMBER 22ND, I WILL PAY THE SHIPPING.
    #FREESHIPPINGTHROUGHDEC222025 #DECOUPAGEBOXPURSE #AntonPieck
    Anton Franciscus Pieck (1895 - 1987) was a Dutch painter, artist and graphic artist. His works are noted for their magical, nostalgic or fairy tale-like style. He's also famous for designing the fairy tale forest in Dutch theme park De Efteling.

    Back circa 1960s, someone saw Pieck's art work and thought..."Hmm, if I puffed these Pieck prints out into a 3-dimensional effect using decoupage, these would look fantastic on a wooden handbag." And so the ANTON handbag was created. Awesome!

    Made in the United States in the 1960s/70s, this original piece is a rare find for collectors and fashion enthusiasts alike. It is a must-have item for anyone who appreciates vintage accessories!

    Octagonal shape. in very good condition.

    EXCEPT for a touch of green mark, which you will see in the picture. 4 little feet. Very colorful. People looking in from the street, shops, clocks, wagons, people, chickens and so much more. Very quaint.

    If you have any questions, ALWAYS ask.

    I ACCEPT: CASH APP, CASH IF YOU ARE PICKING UP, OR BANK MONEY ORDER.

    SHIPPING: BUYER PAYS, YOU WILL RECEIVE A TRACKING ORDER NUMBER.

    THE LAST TIME I SHIPPED, THERE WAS INSURANCE THAT COVERS THE PACKAGE.
    IF YOU PURCHASE BREAKABLES, YOU MAY WANT TO ADD EXTRA INSURANCE. IF THAT HAS CHANGED.

    PLEASE VIEW ALL PICTURES BEFORE PURCHASING. THERE ARE NO RETURNS.

    Thank you for viewing my items.

  • Believer, yesterday morning I encouraged you to “walk in Him” (Col. 2:6). But what does it mean to walk in Christ? It is a walk of faith, not being moved by our circumstances, but by knowing the One who is faithful regardless of our situation. And that faith leads to obedience, obedience to that which Christ taught.

    One of the most important teachings of Christ to His disciples is recorded for us in John 13:34-35 - “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

    The love expressed here is God’s ἀγάπη (agape) love. This is not romantic love, nor is it simple brotherly love; this is love that seeks what is best for the object of that love. Unlike the world’s definition of love, which expects that the one being loved should be accepted for whom he or she is, agape love rejoices in truth (1 Cor. 13:6). In this way, agape love is more difficult than worldly love, because it requires of us an honesty that can cut to the bone.

    Yet it is to this honest love that we are called. It is not loving to leave someone wallowing in sin. It is not loving to allow someone to run headlong toward destruction, whether immediate or eternal. It is not loving to lie in order to spare someone’s feelings when that lie leaves him at odds with God.

    For the unsaved, the most loving thing we can do is preach the gospel.

    To our brethren, the most loving thing we can do is be bold in truth. Yet there is more. If we see our brethren in need, we should meet that need, not merely loving in word but in deed (1 Jn. 3:18; Jas. 2:14-17). We should seek to encourage one another, to build one another up in the faith, to “stimulate one another to love and good deeds” (Heb. 10:24-25). In doing all these things, we will, as Jesus exhorted in Jn. 13:34-35, show ourselves to be His disciples.

    Spurgeon’s Morning and Evening Devotions

    Morning, November 9

    "So walk ye in Him." Colossians 2:6

    If we have received Christ Himself in our inmost hearts, our new life will manifest its intimate acquaintance with Him by a walk of faith in Him. Walking implies action. Our religion is not to be confined to our closet; we must carry out into practical effect that which we believe. If a man walks in Christ, then he so acts as Christ would act; for Christ being in him, his hope, his love, his joy, his life, he is the reflex of the image of Jesus; and men say of that man, "He is like his Master; he lives like Jesus Christ." Walking signifies progress. "So walk ye in Him"; proceed from grace to grace, run forward until you reach the uttermost degree of knowledge that a man can attain concerning our Beloved. Walking implies continuance. There must be a perpetual abiding in Christ. How many Christians think that in the morning and evening they ought to come into the company of Jesus, and may then give their hearts to the world all the day: but this is poor living; we should always be with Him, treading in His steps and doing His will. Walking also implies habit. When we speak of a man's walk and conversation, we mean his habits, the constant tenour of his life. Now, if we sometimes enjoy Christ, and then forget Him; sometimes call Him ours, and anon lose our hold, that is not a habit; we do not walk in Him. We must keep to Him, cling to Him, never let Him go, but live and have our being in Him. "As ye have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in Him"; persevere in the same way in which ye have begun, and, as at the first Christ Jesus was the trust of your faith, the source of your life, the principle of your action, and the joy of your spirit, so let Him be the same till life's end; the same when you walk through the valley of the shadow of death, and enter into the joy and the rest which remain for the people of God. O Holy Spirit, enable us to obey this heavenly precept.

  • THIS IS A TRUE ARTICLE, I DECIDED TO WRITE IT UP WHEN THE GOVERNMENT "LOST ILLEGALS". HENCE THE TITLE.

    How can the government lose people
    that are in the system?

    I can't understand why nor how the government can "loose" any information regarding illegals. Here is why. I worked for the state of Illinois, in 2005-2005 I worked in a division of DHS. It was called "All Kids" at the time. It was called many different names, the latest being "obama care". I know that this was at least in one other state as well. I and someone else commented on a post on MeWe. It was going on in the 70's as well. It was an, "insurance" if you remember. BUT it was more than that.

    We had 2 floors, of a state building, filing cabinets, banana boxes everywhere. Yes banana boxes lined the hallways. Boxes on top of filing cabinets.

    EVERYONE was entered into the system.

    The illegals were brought up, by the government. In Illinois, they were GIVEN: Homes, Businesses, Clothing, Phones, Vehicles, Free Insurance, Phones, EVERYTHING. Kicker, I will never forget, a so called "family" of 3, different last names, came across my desk. They were up from the border within 3 days time. They were taken to Chicago, to the Social Security office. They received, along with Everything else, $5,600 a month. It was called "temporary" Social Security.

    BUT there was no such thing as "temporary" and Illegals weren't getting anything for free. That is the answer that they would give anyone that tried to find out about it.

    I had a friend that I had known from school, she always worked, till she found out that she had MS. Three different times, she went to try to get on disability SS. Was told, no, she could work, the third time, she was in both leg and arm braces. Years later, she was Finally able to get a lousy $300.00 a month.

    My ex husband, was a walker (mail carrier) (walked the hills to deliver mail) for the post office in St. Louis. He was going through a lot of pain, had 5 discs rubbing. Bone on bone. He called me and told me that he was told there was no such thing as "temporary" SS. Because at the time, he was going though the post office, and they were NOT willing, as we all know, it is hard to get "workman's comp". So he went to the SS office.

    I knew, of people that were AMERICAN'S that were NOT making it on the EXTREMELY low SS, they had paid into.

    I tried every way to get transferred into a different department, and wasn't allowed. So on December 5th 2005, I quit.

    So, you see, many of you think that the illegals have JUST been coming up in RECENT years, no, but for DECADES.

    And, you now see, if you didn't already know that YOU are paying, IF you are on "obama care" and they never did.

    The illegals ALSO received the Money for seven years, once started. Which was immediately.

    They don't come WALKING up in flip flops, New Clean clothes, New phones, etc. That is all staged.

    The only "good thing" that came out of this. I knew what was going on, and can tell everyone, everywhere. I tried then, and no one would listen.....

    Are you listening now....

    THIS IS A TRUE ARTICLE, I DECIDED TO WRITE IT UP WHEN THE GOVERNMENT "LOST ILLEGALS". HENCE THE TITLE. How can the government lose people that are in the system? I can't understand why nor how the government can "loose" any information regarding illegals. Here is why. I worked for the state of Illinois, in 2005-2005 I worked in a division of DHS. It was called "All Kids" at the time. It was called many different names, the latest being "obama care". I know that this was at least in one other state as well. I and someone else commented on a post on MeWe. It was going on in the 70's as well. It was an, "insurance" if you remember. BUT it was more than that. We had 2 floors, of a state building, filing cabinets, banana boxes everywhere. Yes banana boxes lined the hallways. Boxes on top of filing cabinets. EVERYONE was entered into the system. The illegals were brought up, by the government. In Illinois, they were GIVEN: Homes, Businesses, Clothing, Phones, Vehicles, Free Insurance, Phones, EVERYTHING. Kicker, I will never forget, a so called "family" of 3, different last names, came across my desk. They were up from the border within 3 days time.

  • Have you ever learned another language or had a conversation with someone who speaks another language? Perhaps run into a situation where a foreigner uses a phrase that in his or her own language makes sense, but in ours doesn’t? This is a difficulty in conveying information from one language and culture to another, and much significance in meaning can be lost in translation.

  • Christian, who does your soul love? Who do you love with your whole heart? Is it God? Is it self? Is it someone or something else?

    Is Jesus saying to you, as John wrote to the church in Ephesus, that “you have left your first love” (Rev. 2:4)? This is something to ponder.

    Is your heart on fire for Him, or are your passions turned elsewhere? Jesus said, “if anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me” (Lk. 9:23).

    It is nothing for the world not to love Him; for no one can love Him unless He loves them first (1 Jn. 4:19). But once we have experienced His love, could we then spurn Him? May it never be!

    No, let us cling to Him and not let go (Song of Solomon 3:4). Let us love Him with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength (Mk. 12:30). Let us draw near to Him, that He might draw near to us (Jas. 4:8).

    Christ loved us, so much so, that He was willing to die for us. We should so love Christ that we are willing to do the same for Him. We must die to self that we may live for Him.

    "I found Him whom my soul loveth: I held Him, and would not let Him go." Song of Solomon 3:4

    Does Christ receive us when we come to Him, notwithstanding all our past sinfulness? Does He never chide us for having tried all other refuges first? And is there none on earth like Him? Is He the best of all the good, the fairest of all the fair? Oh, then let us praise Him! Daughters of Jerusalem, extol Him with timbrel and harp! Down with your idols, up with the Lord Jesus. Now let the standards of pomp and pride be trampled under foot, but let the cross of Jesus, which the world frowns and scoffs at, be lifted on high. O for a throne of ivory for our King Solomon! let Him be set on high for ever, and let my soul sit at His footstool, and kiss His feet, and wash them with my tears. Oh, how precious is Christ! How can it be that I have thought so little of Him? How is it I can go abroad for joy or comfort when He is so full, so rich, so satisfying. Fellow believer, make a covenant with thine heart that thou wilt never depart from Him, and ask thy Lord to ratify it. Bid Him set thee as a signet upon His finger, and as a bracelet upon His arm. Ask Him to bind thee about Him, as the bride decketh herself with ornaments, and as the bridegroom putteth on his jewels. I would live in Christ's heart; in the clefts of that rock my soul would eternally abide. The sparrow hath made a house, and the swallow a nest for herself where she may lay her young, even thine altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God; and so too would I make my nest, my home, in Thee, and never from Thee may the soul of Thy turtle dove go forth again, but may I nestle close to Thee, O Jesus, my true and only rest.
    When my precious Lord I find,
    All my ardent passions glow;
    Him with cords of love I bind,
    Hold and will not let Him go.

  • Christian, how often do you pray, and, if you do not immediately receive the answer you desire, give up? Is this how we are taught to live the Christian life?

    If we know our desires align with God’s will, why stop praying? Scripture tells us, “if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him” (1 Jn. 5:14-15).

    Or, if you give up, is it because you know what you are praying is not His will?

    If what you seek is just, or justice, take example from the widow in Jesus story, who, coming before an unjust judge who did not fear God nor respect man, sought a judgement in her favor. She did not give up. Though he would not at first grant her request, she continued to petition, and eventually, the judge yielded. If this is how an unjust judge deals with someone, how much more will the justice be that God grants to His elect (Lk. 18:1-8)?

    If we do not ask, how shall we receive? And if we ask with wrong motive, why would God reward us? (Jas. 4:2-3)

    Recall Jesus words to us: “If you abide in Me, and my words abide in you, as whatever you wish and it will be done for you” (Jn. 15:7).

    So, let us not come before God only once with our supplication when we know we are asking according to His will. No, let us come multiple times - seven times even - that we might hear and receive from Him.

    "Go again seven times." 1 Kings 18:43

    Success is certain when the Lord has promised it. Although you may have pleaded month after month without evidence of answer, it is not possible that the Lord should be deaf when His people are earnest in a matter which concerns His glory. The prophet on the top of Carmel continued to wrestle with God, and never for a moment gave way to a fear that he should be non-suited in Jehovah's courts. Six times the servant returned, but on each occasion no word was spoken but "Go again." We must not dream of unbelief, but hold to our faith even to seventy times seven. Faith sends expectant hope to look from Carmel's brow, and if nothing is beheld, she sends again and again. So far from being crushed by repeated disappointment, faith is animated to plead more fervently with her God. She is humbled, but not abashed: her groans are deeper, and her sighings more vehement, but she never relaxes her hold or stays her hand. It would be more agreeable to flesh and blood to have a speedy answer, but believing souls have learned to be submissive, and to find it good to wait for as well as upon the Lord. Delayed answers often set the heart searching itself, and so lead to contrition and spiritual reformation: deadly blows are thus struck at our corruption, and the chambers of imagery are cleansed. The great danger is lest men should faint, and miss the blessing. Reader, do not fall into that sin, but continue in prayer and watching. At last the little cloud was seen, the sure forerunner of torrents of rain, and even so with you, the token for good shall surely be given, and you shall rise as a prevailing prince to enjoy the mercy you have sought. Elijah was a man of like passions with us: his power with God did not lie in his own merits. If his believing prayer availed so much, why not yours? Plead the precious blood with unceasing importunity, and it shall be with you according to your desire.

  • Donald Trump is no saint. He needs Jesus as bad as any other lost person. Just because l may agree with someone politically does not mean that person is on their way to heaven. Many people in agreement with me politically are on their broad road to destruction. Matt 7:13,14. The only escape from God’s wrath is through faith in Jesus. He is the way, truth, and the life. John 14:6. If you don’t know Jesus as Savior, may you believe in Him soon.
