My Christmas List This Year...

Hello.

This year...my list is small.  Wanna know what my number 1 item on my list is?

Giving a gift to a child or family who won't get a gift this year.

That's my wish list! ^

That's my profile page stuff! v

I love gifts! I actually love giving gifts more than I love receiving them. I love that feeling when the person opens your gift to them and they are surprised and excited about what you got them; that feeling like you've just picked out the most perfect gift in the world...pure accomplishment.

This year, my number item on my Christmas list is gifts that go to people who may not receive anything this Christmas.  I want them to have the gift someone was going to give to me.  The kids and families who do not get to celebrate Christmas because there are no gifts to be shared deserve to have their faces light up with joy as they unwrap or open a gift that is just for them.  I want to give them gifts!

Please give them a gift this Christmas as your gift to me.

Beautiful...

Hello.

Admired and loved do not begin

to describe the hearts so deep within.

Now as you walk where angels lay,

we will remember you, day by day.

Do not fret, for you're with Jesus;

and all your pain He then appeases.

Please wait for me at heaven's gate.

I'll be a minute, but not too late.

Just My Mind Spinning Again...The Trinity?...

Hello.

The trinity blows my mind. I think it always will. But, I have a...theory?...maybe. Lots of thoughts running through my mind and they eventually form some sort of solid, unified, idea...

The Bible says that when God made us, He made us in His image. People say that being made in His image means we are the only beings on the planet with a soul. Which yes I agree with that, but I think there is more to us being made in His image than just having a soul. We are 3 in 1 as well. Obviously not God, we are completely powerless, but we are 3 in 1, 3 separate, but 1 being. Father, we have a mind (a control center, ideas and thoughts creator, something that we cannot fully comprehend no matter how much we study it); Son, we have a body (living, breathing, the actions to our thoughts, something that dies, but in God, comes back to life); Holy Ghost, we have a soul (we have something that feels, determines good and evil, and searches). 1 Corinthians 2:9-11 talks about the Holy Ghost searching: 

However, as it is written:

“What no eye has seen,
    what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”—
    the things God has prepared for those who love him—

these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit.

The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

Yep. That is what my mind has come up with.
