"Seek ye first the kingdom of GOD and his righteousness and all things will be added on to you"...Matthew 6: 33 "How can you love GOD whom you have never seen...yet cannot love your brothers and sisters you see everyday?"...Annicia Banks I am not going to preach...not at all...I am simply going to ask everyone reading this to just acknowledge Father GOD on a day to day basis and know that without him ALL is impossible!!! There is a lot to be thankful for and we all need to pause more often and give thanks rather than spend a lifetime whining and complaining. There's no need to get caught up in what we do not have, what we should have done, or even what we are going to do tomorrow.  All we have is the present...right now. Forget tomorrow and leave the past right where it is...BEHIND you. Whoever or whatever you perceive GOD to be, whatever religion you may be...just put GOD first!!! Live in peace and show love!!! We might be on this journey using different modes of transportation...but our destination is the same. A great many people may come in here and realize that GOD is first and log right off...but...that's ok!!! Remember this:  "he that denieth me before men...shall be denied before the angels of God."...Luke 12-9 I am not trying to act like I am up in church everyday or that I walk around saying "Lord Lord", cause I don't However...I can say that there is not a day that goes by that I don't communicate with the all-mighty. "When thou pray-thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the street corners that they may be seen by men. When you pray, enter into your closet and shut the door, pray to the father which is in secret and the father who sees in secret shall reward you openly."  Matthew 6 vs 5 and 6 Look at your surroundings and your everyday living and make sure you're standing on a rock and not drifting in sand!!! Love yourself so you can love someone else... GOD bless...Shilo
