Hi, everyone! Today is Friday the 13th, a day which most consider unlucky. Me? I don’t believe in Friday the 13th nonsense, such as:
I don’t believe mirrors hold part of a person’s soul.
I don’t believe spilling salt is considered bad luck and that I should counter it by tossing a pinch over my left shoulder.
I don’t believe walking under a ladder disrupts a sacred triangle and invites misfortune.
I don’t believe crossing paths with a black cat brings you bad luck.
I don’t believe breaking a mirror brings you seven years of bad luck.
And so on.
You get the point. I’m not superstitious. Superstition is useless. It’s crazy. And more importantly, it’s an abomination to the Lord. The Bible opposes superstition and witchcraft and the belief in so-called “bad luck.” Christians are called to trust in God’s sovereignty rather than fear numbers or dates.
So don’t fear Friday the 13th, dear reader, for there is nothing to fear if God is on your side. He is the One to trust in and look to. Trust in Him and not superstitions.
I wish I could get out more and help others. Pray with others who have PTSD. Talk with those who don’t know what to do with their life. Help those are alone and lost. Be the light when they have none in their life.
I want to help the world. . . .but only God can truly heal a broken, hurting heart.
All those who are struggling with past trauma, PTSD, or anything else in your life, know I’m praying for you.
I have always been creative. If I’m not writing or imagining plays to act out, I am making jewelry or paper crowns or sewing beads on old, worn-out clothes that I cut up and make decorations out of. I have a very lively and unique imagination.
God equipped each of us with our own special talents. Some are incredible artists. Some are amazing actors. Some are good singers. Some can play sports really well. But not all talents have to be with sports or dancing. Some talents may be within, like compassion or having the ability to make someone feel better.
Whatever your talent may be, remember God gave it to you for a purpose. He may use it for His glory, so use it wisely and efficiently!
I choose the car. It’s really the only transportation I would prefer. A bike would be too slow for a cross-country trip, and a bus is not to my liking. I have never been on a train and really never want to. Airplanes are sort of scary since they can be hijacked occasionally and can crash. But a car? Now to me, that’s safe.
Trusting God to lead your life is kind of like driving a car. You give Him the wheel of life and He’ll take you exactly where you need to go. But sometimes, the way you want to go is not always where you need to be. God is the One Who knows what is best for you and loves you. Trust Him to drive your car.
I’m not normally one to get anxious or stressed very much like some. Sometimes I do, but thankfully, my Heavenly Father is the one whom I can run to. He helps me, preserves me and comforts me in times of trouble. I’ve lost count of how many prayers He’s answered in my life or how many times He’s spoken to me.
Trust me. . .God is the cure for all stress and anxiety.
Writing and drawing are the two activities I lose myself in. I love to write and draw (see above). Time flies when you’re having fun, as the old saying goes, and I know that I definitely don’t have to be a good artist or author to enjoy doing what I love.
So follow your dreams, because one day you may change the world with your talents. Don’t listen to what others say about you. Think on YOUR creative talent, because you may have something no one else does.
God bless.
