Matthew 5

ever seen a wild horse letting curiosity get the best of them? why is it that they can't help but inquire or linger on till they find out whether or not strangers are friendly? why do they like being petted?
ever had a pet be mad at you for not being around for a while? i thought animals only wanted to eat and copulate, where does passive aggression toward another species due to a lack of presence factor in? why would they be caring about something like that at all? are you seeing a pattern?
by the grace of God, i can see the heart of God in everything He's made. i see the things He's made to be pleasant to me and i understand His idea of things that please Him. i love birds, i love how pretty their songs are and i love their pretty feathers and i love when they're friendly. same with dogs, same with horses. you don't like a filthy dog, it wouldn't be pleasant to be around them, at least not for long, same with a dog that's barking constantly, same with a dog that bites. these are the rules that i try to live by every day. not letting lust run my life is me being clean. not swearing up and down like a sailor is me having a pleasant song. not complaining or being bitter is me being friendly. i can see you rolling your eyes but these are lessons i needed to learn, if you're already like this, more power to ya! i'm glad your time on earth has been easier than mine. and super impressed if it wasn't and it was simply credit to your resilience. however, you still need a savior because as it's written, all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. if you break the ten commandments once they are broken forever and you are owed death. BUT, humble yourself before God and ask to be a partaker of His shed blood for the remission of sins. Jesus loves you. think about that. who would take on God's wrath for you? just so you can be where He is. Forever. ask your best friend whether or not they'd take on God's wrath for you. if they say yes they're lying. if you believe them you're lying to yourself. Jesus Christ is the only way. He will give you rest. Learn of Him. He's meek and lowly in heart. His yoke is easy and His burden is light.

peace and grace to you all
