THE HEART AND THE MIND





In life We will always be faced with 2 big decisions. The right and the wrong. When we know what we should do and what we shouldn't. Our heart is weak and unstable. One day we want something the next day we hate it When we let our lives be guided by emotions we will always fail. Emotions come and go. Feelings come and go. But logic will always stay. As cliche as this phrase may sound "Love is blind" I'm referring to all sorts of love. Not just the "luvy duvy" Love for a partner, the love for a friend, love for an object, even the love for something that we ourselves can't even comprehend. Love is blind in the sense that we tend to idealize. When someone tries to give us eyesight of the situation we ignore it. Justifying actions or even justifying our own actions. That's why giving up or moving on is the hardest. Our emotions are so involved with everything that we don't know how to ignore them. Emotions tend to block out the mind. Making it believe that its okay to permit certain actions, or certain things, or certain people in our lives. Its hard to be in war zone with oneself. Because at the end of the combat there is no winning or losing. Choosing to go with the heart will lead to heart break our hearts are stupid. Choosing to go with the mind and logic is the most reasonable thing to do but at the same time the toughest. Because what we want is frequently at odds with what is right.

Future blessings

So many times we want every thing right away. When we are hungry we Usually recure to the most fast way of getting food and we end up with JUNK FOOD. Our like here in the states life is so fast paced we are used to getting things fast. But Sometimes that's how we might start feeling when it comes to Jehovah blessing us. After a trial after hardships we might expect Jehovah to blesses right away and if he doesn't we might ask ourselves but why? What did I do wrong? But it's really all about patience. Jehovah knows when he will when we would need the blessing the most. I remember an experience from a close friend. He was going on his 5th year of being a ministerial servant and he started thinking Jehovah is going to bless me twice as more this year then he had already. But then his mom got an a near death accident he lost his Job he lost his opportunity of working again for the company. But he didn't lose his faith. He got discourage for a moment and I remember him sayi

Times of Need Will Come

A candle light, phone, paper & pen, and book that's all I have with me right now.This past weeks have been very tough for my family and I. I have a very big family and most of are living together in this house ( we are 15 member's wowzers i know) Everyone is trying to keep it together but by looking at everyone's faces you can tell their sad. I'm sure by now your wondering why or whats wrong? Well we haven't had light or water for 3 weeks already. i know its not as bad as what others go through and I know we aren't the first or the Last to have economic problems. But to be honest its been a daily challenge and struggle especially when its night it gets dark early (around 4-5pm) so to get ready for Friday night meetings we have start getting ready early to be able to see where we are going and where our stuff is at and YES flashlights have been a great help but those batteries die fast. To shower we have had to adapt to showering with water in buckets. Y

The word of the day..

Patience. You might ask yourself but why? Well lately I have seen I been needing this quality a lot! At home, in service, with little kids from the congregation, but especially in school. It sometimes seems that in my English class is a Bible teach class and history where they talk about the bible more then they actually teach us. It sounds pleasant but not when there teaching that God is not love and that he causes all the suffering . Today, for example. The teacher brought the subject about the Puritan Theology. (This theory was back in the day when people would be torture in-front of everyone if they where thought to have sin or to have been witches and the the towns government would be based all in religion) {theocracy}  The Teacher continued the lesson talking about Religion. He then asked the class what religion where they. I raised my hand. Thinking it would be a good opportunity to give testimony and defend the truth.  But as usual he didn't choose me he never really does
