* the ant and the grasshopper
from india:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his houseand laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is stupid and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.
Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible!
Proverbs 30:25 The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;
Proverbs 6:6Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
2 Thessalonians 3:10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you,
that if any would not work, neither should he eat

* cant stop eating
I always feel like I am alone with this problem of overeating, I just figured that I was the only one in the world that couldn't stop getting into the refrig, searching until I found something, anything. I have admitted my eating problem to my family, but they dont understand.. no one does. I have a lot going with me, a good family, a wonderful job that keeps me busy but very satified--and yet I come home and sit by myself every night thinking about my dad who is out of work, my sister who may be losing her job, and the economy and I go into a feeding frenzy. I need help, I need someone that is going to understand me and I need to know what I need to do to get started...please help me

* setting your mind on HIS Spirit - Romans 8
Romans 8 2For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 39Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
an email that was sent to me - its a long post:
(to see the full post email me)
This email I'm sending starts off like I'm going to go into detail ona Bible reading program, however, this email really has to do withchanging the "landscape" of one's mind, namely, to "set one's mind onthe Spirit" as Romans 8 and other passages speak of. This isobviously important because that's where the 'battleground" for whatwe deal with begins with, with our minds, the contents and sum of ourthoughts.I meet with a group of men each week from my church, and have beendoing so for a number of years now. We're close friends. Averting alengthy discussion on how my group arrived at a daily Bible readingprogram, (we use the one athttp://www.bible-reading.com/bible-plan.html ) -- I and my groupstarted reading the Bible nearly daily.For the first time in my life, I'm actually not only getting throughthe Bible, but it's part of my daily life. I listen to it to and fromwork, I bought an mp3 version and put it on an mp3 player and listento it on my 20-minute drive (one way) to work and back. I listen tonothing else 95% of the time.There's more to this email than the above and the mere merits ofreading the Bible daily.As a result of this, I ended up in Romans 8 and couldn't help noticingthe verses that speak of-> the mind set on the flesh and the consequencesand-> the mind set on the Spirit and the consequences.In the computer world (my life), we talk about something called "GIGO"(garbage in, garbage out), among other useful analogies.
remember the parable of the Prodigal Son, who when he hadexpended his father's wealth and came to his senses, he said he'dreturn. AND HIS FATHER SAW HIM WHEN HE WAS FAR OFF AND WELCOMED HIMBACK.http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%2015:11-52;&version=49;That's God towards us, even way back in Isaiah 55, God says let thewicked forsake his way, and the evil man his thoughts, and let himturn to the Lord and he will have compassion on him, and to our God,for he will freely pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts,neither are your ways my ways declares the Lord.The thing to be excited about in Romans 8 is that (I still find thisodd) that God allows us to call him "Daddy" - Go look it up in anyreliable concordance, or ask some spiritual person you trust what ABBAFATHER means. You'll be told it is a term of endearment along theorder of "Daddy" (part of me still can't get over this).Part of me started exploring this when a spiritually wise person Irespect told me (a number of months ago) that I should learn to "Restin God" -- and so I began digging on that.
matter for a while, and I feel like I'm justbeginning.Even CS Lewis spoke of this in his book "Mere Christianity" (to somedegree), insomuch that he said that God gave us minds and intends forus to use them. Worship and Love of God far exceeds the mere mind (tobe absurdly obvious), however, the discussion of the mind in terms ofwhat Romans 8 states of setting my mind on the Spirit vs. the gutterin practical terms is very needed I personally believe.

HE hears me when i pray.
im dealing with a few health issues. very small health issues compared to others ive seen. i stay in constant pain. pain is no stranger to me. Jesus loves me, and i love HIM !!!
