Ask yourself: what does it mean to obey God? What is loving obedience?
It means that God is not a dictator; He is a faithful, LOVING King who wants the best for us. He wants us to be happy and loved and full of joy. He wants us to do the activities that make us happy - for example, for me gymnastics dance kung fu and figure skating.
It means that God wants us to follow Him because He is wiser and knows us more than we know ourselves, because like novelists, He plotted us out - thought about us, decided what we would want to do, the scents that would please us, the being we would be forever - before He even put us in our mother's womb. He wants us to see and experience His GREAT LOVE.
He inspires us to LOVE Him with all our heart and mind and soul and strength and spirit, as well as our neighbors and even our enemies. He doesn't want us to obey out of fear, although it's okay to fear Him sometimes. Remember then, that perfect LOVE casts out all FEAR.
Ask yourself this: What is Love? GOD is LOVE. Love is patient, kind, Truthful, eternal, and free. Love gives GRACE, which is unmerited favor, that we didn't earn but is given to us because Jesus died on a cross to destroy sin and death and chaos. He gives us GRACE because He LOVES us in a way that may be hard for most people to fathom. As an archangel, I want to love people in the same way, and do what Jesus would do, but I don't want to be Him.
Love is LIVING WATER. Love is Jesus inside of your HEART. Living Water is given to us from Jesus, like He gave water to the gentile woman at the well. People think Jesus is a "Jew" but He is Christian, because He is the Christ.
Loving obedience comes when you trust Him out of LOVE, knowing He is wiser. You obey for God's sake, and for your sake, and for the sake of all of God's People. You obey for your well-being, because LOVE of GOD brings you PEACE and TRANQUILITY. It's to shine a light upon other people and use your gifts to inspire and teach other people. It's to bring other people to God.
God's WORD of the day:
Old Testament:
"And a highway will be there; it will be Called the Way of Holiness; It will be there for those who walk on that way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it. No lion will be there, nor any ravenous beast; they will not be found there. But only the redeemed will walk there, and those the Lord has rescued will return." ~Isaiah 35:8-10a.
New Testament:
"Jesus is the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under Heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved" ~Acs 4:11-12
Knowing all of this, trust that God will protect you. God will treasure you and cherish you and give you a Way out of the darkness. He is the cornerstone of LOVE. He created LOVE and COMPASSION and TRUTH. So seek Eternal Truth, and breathe in God's air. Some ways to fight evil: say, "Breath of God, breathe on me." "Oh God oh God I need you." Preach to them. "I command you to leave in the name of Jesus Christ." "The blood of Christ is over me now and forever more." "I plead the blood of Jesus Christ." Then explain it. And preach about God's LIGHT and LOVE and the demons will leave.
Love,
Rebecca

Heavenly Sports
Some sports bring people to God. Gymnastics, for example, requires wings and super-strength. So God gives Earth athletes faerie wings and sprite wings, and they feel like they're flying. It makes them happy, and they start to wonder if they are angels, because they don't believe in faeries. Skateboarding and figure skating requires wings too. To stay in the air long enough to do a triple toe loop, you need wings. Do do tricks on a skateboard, you need extra agility and wings. It makes them believe in God, and, sometimes, they decide to seek Him. And the Holy Bible says, "Seek and you will find."
In Gymnastics, God helps earth athletes do their flips and layouts and twists, 99.9999999%, until they get better and need less help. Practice makes perfect. For a lot of sports, wings are required. Especially snowboarding down mountains and sky diving. It's dangerous, people, if you have no faith.

Sorry I've stopped making posts for a while :)
So, its been a long time since I've been on here. I'm going to wing it.
Meditating on the Holy Bible. When I remembered my faith, i started with Mathew. I read the first five paragraphs, and then started over at paragraph 2. And I kept doing this until I felt like I really understood it.
Close your eyes, and pray God opens up your Bible to the part He wants you to read with your hand. Open it and then read it until it touches your heart. So, I closed my eyes, and I opened right to Mathew. I'm reading 1:18. It's about the birth of Jesus. Joseph had a dream where an angel told him (and perhaps it wasn't a dream; he just felt dreamy) that Jesus put Himself in Mary as a baby without sex. So, because Joseph learned about this, he did not break up with Mary. The Holy Bible says, "But he [Joseph] had no sexual relations with her before she gave birth to her Son. And Joseph named Him Jesus" (Good News Bible, Mathew 1:24)
There are two Marys. The first one is Mary Magdalene, married to Simom-Peter. The other one is Jesus's mom, Mary. She doesn't have a last name.
My eyes were led to Mathew 3. John the baptist said, "Turn away from your sins," he said [possessed by God], "because the Kingdom of Heaven is near." (Mathew 3:2) It's the second coming. The first coming stopped, but at the second coming, God goes to earth visible, bringing all the murderers and evil British cops and rapists to hell and changing Earth making it better. He's making Heaven better too. Heaven always stretches: God makes more land on heaven.

Anti-ana
When I was younger, chronologically, I thought being way too skinny was beautiful. Then I found martial arts, and started wanting to be strong. I used to want the skinniest arms, a flat stomach, a "thigh gap". Now I want big, muscled legs, tiny kid wrists, big ab muscles. Sometimes, muscle looks like fat when you're sitting down, and that's okay too.
Ana is not your best friend. She is your worst enemy. Why do you throw away your lunch, in more than one trashcan, and then over-exercise. For me, it was running up and down staircases and doing wild toe-touches: just like my twin. My foster mom constantly told me I was fat, and caused it all. All the while, God was feeding me and I was 110 lbs, not the 70 lb skinny girl I thought I was. He let me think I was that skinny, until I was ready to realize that THAT SKINNY is weak. Some people fast to seek God. Sure, I wanted to do that too, but some of the times I hated my body, and felt uncomfortable in my own body.
Gymnastics and martial arts and even dance lead me to a STRONG body, a STRONG soul, a STRONG spirit. STARVING YOURSELF cannot make you strong. It cannot bring you happiness. Only Jesus can bring you joy. Try to love yourself. Never give up.

My heart hurts for the whole world. There is so much pain in everyone's lives. Too much darkness, not enough light. Vision of hope, but only feeling wrong inside.

Signs
Yahweh wrote in the Old Testament, "Set up road signs; put up guideposts. Take notes of the highway, the road that you take. Return, Virgin Israel, return to your towns." (Jeremiah 31:21)
Jesus wrote, "Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves' (Mathew 31:12) Jesus is against money, and it is evil to sell birds when birds are meant to fly free in the wilderness of heaven, singing songs in angel-minds.
Jesus also writes,"My House will be called a House of prayer, but you are making it a den of robbers" (Mathew 21:13b) Jesus went in and healed the "lame" and blind.
In John Jesus writes, "Very truly I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw the signs I performeed, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill" (John 6:26). That is fine and all: Jesus wants us to eat till we're full but also He wants to bring us true happy, and for us to love Him, just for Love's sake, no other reason. To have fellowship with Him, just because He is a best friend.
Seek eternal life and pray to be immortal. It is the same thing. God said, "The Work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent" (John 6:29)
Read Isaiah 53 and Isaiah 56. Isaiah 53 says that God (Jesus) was despised and rejected by mankind, and that He would suffer and that He understands pain and if He understands pain, He can help us through OUR pain. It also says that people hide their face and hold God in low esteem, and have low self-esteem themselves. It says that He was pierced for our transgressions and that He paid the price for our sin and it was peaceful for Him because He was serving God and that by His wounds we are healed. It also says we are the sheep and He is the shepherd, but He will help us when we go astray.
Isaiah 56 says that we are called to "maintain justice and do what is right, for (His) salvation is close at hand and that His righteousness will soon be revealed". It says that those who keep God's commands will be blessed and rewarded in secret. We are meant to keep our minds from evil.
God puts out signs everywhere to show us He is real, Alive, and ready to guide us to a beautiful future full of peace and love and joy. When we quiet down and listen, we will hear His true guidance. Look for the guideposts. Find your road. Jesus's road. Ask yourself, what would Jesus do? Pray to Him and ask for signs, but don't test Him. He puts up signs everywhere.
Love,
Rebecca :)

Ways to fight Parkingsons disease, paralyzation, MS, and ceberal palsy
If you have parkingsons disease (psychiatric drugs cause this), put your hands in cold water and hold them there. Exercise your hands. Sit down on your staircase and press your hands down and try to lift your body up. Do this a few times. Try to type something on your computer. Resist the shaking. I know you probably feel like you are a prisoner in your own body, but there are ways to fight it and to recover and be perfectly healed. Pray to Jesus to be healed, and stop taking psyciatric drugs. Flex your hands slowly. Stretch them. Stretch your neck. Do slow pushups: start with a plank, hold it, then very slowly lower yourself to the ground, gripping the ground with your hands. Another exercise you can do is make a fist with your hand and slowly let go. I know your hand feels like its not your own and like its about to be cut off. This is just a tactile hallucination and there is a problem in your brain that God can heal. Don't let your hands shake: resist. Type a lot of words.
When you're paralyzed, hold onto the wall and force your legs to work. Then let go and stumble around and pray to be healed. You might not be able to feel your legs, but you can still use them. It's harder, but with God all things are possible.
If you have MS or MD, to ab exercises like V-ups and sit-ups and do pushups and ride a bike. Your legs might hurt a lot, but force yourself to walk anyways. If you want, start with a walker or a cane and eventually throw them away and walk without them. And then pray to be healed. Its the same with ceberal palsy: force yourself to walk. You may walk funny at first, but then force your legs to move in a straight line.
And Jesus still heals today! It's the second coming. God doesn't want anyone to be sick. I can promise that He will help you. You might be thinking, "But WHEN?" Wait patiently and Worship while you're waiting. I promise He will heal you. Make an effort. Put water all over your body. Swim. Water can really help. Go to physical therapy and FIGHT IT.
Let me know if you have any ideas!

Grace and what it means
"The Lord is gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and great in mercy. The Lord is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His Works' (Psalm 145:8-9)
"Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through Whom also we have access by faith into this grace which we stand, and rejoice in hope and the Glory of God." (Romans 5:1-2)
God watches over us in the quiet places, and leads us to a still water that brings true peace to our souls. When we are in the wilderness, we are possessed by the Holy Spirit, because He possesses all the trees and flowers and dirt and bugs. Grace is unmerited favor and forgiveness, no matter what, for everyone who believes Jesus is the Son of God - and God Himself - and who accepts God's Sacrafice on the cross. He could have proven He is God and ripped Himself off the cross (with God all things are possible), but He chose to die for us, to defeat death once and for all so no one has to die. He fell asleep, died and dreamed, and woke up 10 minutes later and left the tomb. He moved the rock away and stayed on earth for a while to create the Church, of which we are all a part of.
God is our therapist, out best friend, our Father, our brother. He gives us eternal Love - unmerited, because Grace is Love.
"But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works, otherwise grace is no longer grace." (Romans 1:6)
"For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline." (2 Timothy 1:7)
"He has saved us, and called us to a holy life, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was granted us in Christ Jesus from all eternity." (2 Timothy 1:9)
Jesus saves us. Good works are prayer and compassion on a brother/sister/neighbor. Grace is given no matter what - there is no such thing as an unforgivable sin. Nothing we do could ever make God hate us or reject us. Even hell is safe - its there to stop evil people from hurting God's adopted children, and as a lesson, because suffering produces enlightenment (realizations and revelations about God and about who we really are).
When it rains, thunders, and lightning strikes, it is God's grace. Faeries love dancing in the rain. It is such a beautiful thing that God gives to us to bring us true joy. It makes us truly happy. the rain is God's loving tears - the thunder is God's righteous anger at all the evil in the universe - and the lightning is a spark of God's Love. God brought rain today, to bless us, and to nourish all the gardens He made just for us.
God is Patient and Kind. He gives nonbelievers that have true goodness time to find Him, and sends the truly evil to hell. He even gives grace to those people. He never gives up on any being He created. He won't throw you away. If you don't sense Him, it doesn't mean He isn't there. He cherishes you.
here's what the Gospel says about Grace: "You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy." 44 But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you 45 in order that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax-gatherers do the same? 47 And if you greet your brothers only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect." (Mathew 5:43-48)
So, God loves His enemies, as we are meant to love our enemies (even the ones that hurt our sore, vulnerable spots badly) and forgive them, as He forgives us and lavishes us with His Loving Grace. So forgive. And love. And don't judge. The gospel says we will be judged in the way we judge....if you don't judge, you wont be judge. God isn't here to condemn, He's here to teach and watch over us.
More later! Love,
