God ALWAYS shows people themselves one way or another.  It is better to “see the things you do,” Acknowledge them and Repent before God shows them to us.  In my daily Bible reading David did NOT “see the things you do:”

“And it came to pass, after the year was expired, at the time when kings go forth to battle, that David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon, and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried still at Jerusalem.  And it came to pass in an eveningtide, that David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and from the roof he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful to look upon.  And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?  And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house.  And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.  And David sent to Joab, saying, Send me Uriah the Hittite. And Joab sent Uriah to David.  And when Uriah was come unto him, David demanded of him how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered.  And David said to Uriah, Go down to thy house, and wash thy feet. And Uriah departed out of the king’s house, and there followed him a mess of meat from the king.  But Uriah slept at the door of the king’s house with all the servants of his lord, and went not down to his house.  And when they had told David, saying, Uriah went not down unto his house, David said unto Uriah, Camest thou not from thy journey? why then didst thou not go down unto thine house?  And Uriah said unto David, The ark, and Israel, and Judah, abide in tents; and my lord Joab, and the servants of my lord, are encamped in the open fields; shall I then go into mine house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? as thou livest, and as thy soul liveth, I will not do this thing.  And David said to Uriah, Tarry here to day also, and to morrow I will let thee depart. So Uriah abode in Jerusalem that day, and the morrow.  And when David had called him, he did eat and drink before him; and he made him drunk: and at even he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but went not down to his house.  And it came to pass in the morning, that David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah.  And he wrote in the letter, saying, Set ye Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retire ye from him, that he may be smitten, and die.  And it came to pass, when Joab observed the city, that he assigned Uriah unto a place where he knew that valiant men were.  And the men of the city went out, and fought with Joab: and there fell some of the people of the servants of David; and Uriah the Hittite died also. (II Samuel 11:1-17)

My daily Bible reading is God SHOWING David himself:”

“And the Lord sent Nathan unto David. And he came unto him, and said unto him, There were two men in one city; the one rich, and the other poor.  The rich man had exceeding many flocks and herds:  But the poor man had nothing, save one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and nourished up: and it grew up together with him, and with his children; it did eat of his own meat, and drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was unto him as a daughter.  And there came a traveller unto the rich man, and he spared to take of his own flock and of his own herd, to dress for the wayfaring man that was come unto him; but took the poor man’s lamb, and dressed it for the man that was come to him.  And David’s anger was greatly kindled against the man; and he said to Nathan, As the Lord liveth, the man that hath done this thing shall surely die:  And he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.  And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;  And I gave thee thy master’s house, and thy master’s wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.  Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? thou hast killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and hast taken his wife to be thy wife, and hast slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.  Now therefore the sword shall never depart from thine house; because thou hast despised me, and hast taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be thy wife.  Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will raise up evil against thee out of thine own house, and I will take thy wives before thine eyes, and give them unto thy neighbour, and he shall lie with thy wives in the sight of this sun.  For thou didst it secretly: but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.  And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the Lord. And Nathan said unto David, The Lord also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die.” (II Samuel 12:1-13)

“See the things you do” is the only thing that is going to stop “There have been 334 days and 351 mass shootings so far this year, (Article posted @ Facebook and Twitter) which states:

The nation was once again gripped by gun violence on Friday after a gunman identified by authorities as Robert Lewis Dear Jr. stormed a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, killing two civilians and one police officer and injuring nine others.
It is just the latest in a year of more-than-daily mass shootings in America. In fact, there had already been one mass shooting on Friday — in the early morning hours, two people were killed and two injured in a shooting at a restaurant in Sacramento. Another mass shooting incident in Boston in the early hours of Thanksgiving Day took the life of a Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority rail conductor.
There have been at least 351 mass shootings so far this year, according to news reports collected by a reddit community that tracks these incidents. The reddit tracker defines mass shootings as incidents in which four or more people, including the gunman, are killed or injured by gunfire. The Mass Shooting Tracker is different from other shooting databases in that it uses a broader definition of mass shooting — the old FBI definition focused on four or more people killed as part of a single shooting.
There were at least 12 mass shootings in the U.S. last week so far, counting the Colorado Springs shooting. That shooting would also be the second mass shooting in Colorado Springs this month.
The number of mass shootings so far this year has already surpassed the total number of mass shootings in 2014, according to the tracker. And the pace is well above 2013’s pace, when a total of 363 mass shootings occurred.

I said in my “Do You Know It Is Dangerous To Touch What Belongs To God?” Blog “That is why he lighted up the White House like a rainbow when homosexuals got the right to marry nationwide.”  I said in “The Trilogy,” “The HORROR got it Signal to Begin!!!”  “Shooting rampage in California leaves 14 dead, 17 wounded” (Article posted @ Facebook and Twitter) states:

Gunmen opened fire on a holiday party on Wednesday at a social services agency in San Bernardino, California, killing 14 people and wounding 17 others, then fled the scene, triggering an intense manhunt and a shootout with police, authorities said.
The article also states:
So far in 2015, there have been more than 350 shootings in which four or more people died, according to the crowd-sourced website shootingtracker.com, which keeps a running tally of mass shootings.
The shooting in California comes less than a week after a gunman killed three people and wounded nine in a shooting rampage at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In October, a gunman killed nine people at a college in Oregon, and in June, a white gunman killed nine black churchgoers in South Carolina.
In that Blog I said “It looks like France was about sending a message to Obama and America because France flag colors are the same as America!” and now “F.B.I. Treats San Bernardino Attack as Possible Terrorism Case,” (Article posted @ Facebook and Twitter) which states:
The married couple who police say killed 14 people at a social services center had built more than a dozen pipe bombs and stockpiled thousands of rounds of ammunition, officials said Thursday, and they fired as many as 150 bullets at victims and police officers in a rampage that shattered a quiet day and ended in their own deaths.
The F.B.I. is treating the shooting as a potential terrorist act, though they are far from concluding that it was, two law enforcement officials said Thursday. The suspects’ extensive arsenal, their recent Middle East travels and evidence that one had been in touch with people with Islamist extremist views, both in the United States and abroad, all contributed to the decision to refocus the investigation. But officials emphasized that they were unclear what set off the attack, and said they were not ready to call it terrorism.

“‘Daily News’ provokes with cover on Calif. shooting: ‘God isn’t fixing this’” (Article posted @ Facebook and Twitter) states:

The front cover of New York’s Daily News for Thursday takes a strong stance against how some politicians are reacting to the San Bernardino shooting with calls for prayer instead of tighter gun control laws. 
The headline says, “God Isn’t Fixing This.”
“As latest batch of innocent Americans are left lying in pools of blood, cowards who could truly end gun scourge continue to hide behind meaningless platitudes,” the cover reads. 
House Speaker Paul Ryan and GOP presidential hopefuls Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Jeb Bush and Lindsey Graham all responded with “prayers” for the victims of San Bernardino.

I said in my “Do You Have A Heart After God’s Own Heart?” Blog “It is not Christmas anymore because Jesus is not the reason for the season anymore.”  Christmas is not the only thing America has taken God out of.  They have taken God out of Marriage and out of schools.  Guns do NOT shoot by themselves so this is not a gun problem, but a “see the things you do” problem.

I do not know if people do not realize or do not understand or do not think God SEES everything people do.  That is why it is so important for us to “see the things you do.”  People must “see the things you do” because they come with Consequences like in my daily Bible reading:

“Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.  And Nathan departed unto his house. And the Lord struck the child that Uriah’s wife bare unto David, and it was very sick.  David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.  And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.  And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?  But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.” (II Samuel 14-19)

The thing about Consequences is people do not know how far they will go as in my daily Bible reading:

“And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant.  And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all now go, lest we be chargeable unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.  Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?  But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.  Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine, and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.  And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king’s sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.  And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king’s sons, and there is not one of them left.  Then the king arose, and tare his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.  And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have slain all the young men the king’s sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.  Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king’s sons are dead: for Amnon only is dead.” (II Samuel 13:24-33)
The reason people do not “see the things you do” is usually because they are full of themselves.  The Spirit sets Free, which is how people get what God put into them before the Foundation of the World to the Surface.  On the other hand when people are full of themselves it keeps what God put into them before the Foundation of the World BURIED under themselves.

I also said in my “Do You Know It Is Dangerous To Touch What Belongs To God?” Blog “Obama’s stand on same-sex marriage makes his judgment BLURRED on EVERYTHING.  That is why he makes comments like ‘Obama Criticized for Claim That ISIS Is ‘Contained.’”  Obama is a perfect example of someone FULL OF THEMSELVES and is why he does not “see the things you do” or hear the things he says and does not know what Truth is.  There is no place for God in people that are full of themselves.  “U.S. Intel to Obama: ISIS Is Not Contained,” (Article posted @ Facebook and Twitter) which states:

A new U.S. intelligence report on ISIS, commissioned by the White House, predicts that the self-proclaimed Islamic State will spread worldwide and grow in numbers, unless it suffers a significant loss of territory on the battlefield in Iraq and Syria, U.S. officials told The Daily Beast.
The report stands in stark contrast to earlier White House assurances that ISIS had been “contained” in Iraq and Syria. And it is already spurring changes in how the U.S. grapples with ISIS, these officials said. 

The first way people “see the things you do” is a Relationship with God through the Holy Spirit.  The second way people “see the things you do” is to be in the Word of God daily.  The third way people “see the things you do” is “God’s Process.” (Posted at this Website)  God’s Process is how people become NOT full of themselves because God’s Process gets themselves to the Surface, which gets themselves out of the way to make room for God.  The question is how far will America’s Consequences for same-sex marriage go because as you can see in my daily Bible reading David is still going through Consequences for his actions:

“And there came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.  And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for we shall not else escape from Absalom: make speed to depart, lest he overtake us suddenly, and bring evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.  And the king’s servants said unto the king, Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall appoint.  And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, which were concubines, to keep the house.  And the king went forth, and all the people after him, and tarried in a place that was far off.” (II Samuel 15:13-17)

I hope you have grown from reading my Blogs as much as I have grown from writing them.  Be Safe and Enjoy your New Year’s Celebration!  I look forward to growing together in 2016!!

HAVE A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!!!
 

My daily Bible reading shows God considered David “after his own heart:”

“But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a man after his own heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord commanded thee.” (I Samuel 13:14)

It is so Important that our heart is “after his own heart” because that is what God is Looking at:

“But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart.” (I Samuel 16:7)

Along with God’s Heart people must also have a Strong Mentality based on Bible Principles.  Mentality based on Bible Principles is how people know Truth.  It is Truth that Sets people free.  Mentality will Make or Break people.  David’s Mentality is shown in my daily Bible reading:

“And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?” (I Samuel 17:26)

David’s Mentality is how he Defeated Goliath:

“And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.  So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.  Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.” (I Samuel 17:49-51)

People with Bible Principles Mentality is how people know what Works for them:

“And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him.  And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd’s bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine.” (I Samuel 17:39-40)

People know when people are “after his own heart” because it shows in their behavior as in my daily Bible reading:

“And David went out whithersoever Saul sent him, and behaved himself wisely: and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul’s servants.  And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the Lord was with him.” (I Samuel 18:5, 14)

One reason God considered David “after his own heart” is David had a relationship with God.  That relationship is how God led David.  My daily Bible reading shows that relationship is also how David seeks God:

“Therefore David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the Lord said unto David, Go, and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.  Then David enquired of the Lord yet again. And the Lord answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into thine hand.” (I Samuel 23:2, 4)

“God’s Process” (Posted at this Website) is how people get to “after his own heart.”  Being “after his own heart” does not mean we do not have Issues.  We ALL have Issues.  How we deal with our Issues is how we get to “after his own heart.”  The Word of God, our Relationship with the Holy Spirit and God’s Process not only gets people to “after his own heart,” but is how people deal with their Issues.

When people are “after his own heart” they know what God Will and Will Not approve of and know how to CHECK their Actions and Behavior:

“And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which the Lord said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe privily.  And it came to pass afterward, that David’s heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul’s skirt.  And he said unto his men, The Lord forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, the Lord’s anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the Lord.” (I Samuel 24:4-6)

When people are “after his own heart” they know how to encourage themselves because as my daily Bible reading shows with “after his own heart” comes “after his own heart” Power:

“And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.” (I Samuel 30:6)

“And David enquired at the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all.” (I Samuel 30:8)

The article, “Dying 5-Year-Old Girl Chooses ‘Heaven Over Hospital’: ‘Don’t Worry. God Will Take Care of Me’” really bothered me, (Article posted @ Facebook and Twitter) which states:

At five years old, Julianna Snow has already experienced a lifetime worth of pain.
The Oregon girl is dying from an incurable, degenerative neuromuscular disease called Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), which has had her in and out of hospitals for the past 18 months enduring “countless procedures” and spending “weeks at a time trying to breathe,” her mom, Michelle Moon, wrote in a post entitled “My Daughter Wants to Choose Heaven Over the Hospital’” on The Mighty, a website for families struggling with disabilities, serious diseases and life and death issues.
So earlier this year, her parents, Michelle Moon and Steve Snow, asked her what she wanted to do the next time she got seriously ill and needed to go to the hospital.
Their daughter chose heaven, her mom, who also has a blog, wrote on the website.
“A few months after we started hospice, Julianna made it clear to us that she does not want to go to the hospital again,” her mom wrote in May 2015. “Like so many kids who have had to face life-threatening illness, she is wise beyond her years – but she is still only 4 years old.
“I do not think that she will survive another illness, especially without aggressive intervention,” she wrote. “Julianna understands this, too. We have had some remarkable, uncomfortable, humbling conversations about heaven.”
Before these conversations, Michelle says she and Steve had planned to take Julianna to the hospital if she got sick again. But after hearing Julianna’s wishes, they changed their minds, Michelle told CNN in an email.
“She made it clear that she doesn’t want to go through the hospital again,” Michelle wrote. “So we had to let go of that plan because it was selfish.”
Michelle wrote a second column in early June explaining more about their decision.
“Julianna talks about the hospital – a lot,” she wrote. “Usually about how much she hates it. I tried to remind her of all the wonderful people who helped her.
“We hate all the NT [naso-tracheal suction, the thing she hated the most from the hospital],” she wrote, “and pokes too – but they killed the germs and let her come home so didn’t that make it OK?
“We had this conversation many, many times,” she wrote. “Julianna wouldn’t say anything, One night in early February, she finally answered. She said “no.” And then she started talking about heaven.
While some ethicists disagree with their decision to listen to their daughter, according to CNN, Julianna’s doctor supports them, he told CNN.
“For her, there is no light at the end of the tunnel,” Danny Hsia, her pulmonologist says, told CNN. “She doesn’t have a long time to live.”

The article bothered me because God is a God of Life.  A 5-year-old is too young to have a Mentality like this.  Her parents should have never asked her that question.  Children HEAR more than parents realize.  Her parents should be encouraging her to FIGHT and not letting her give up.  Her fighting could help someone else continue to fight even if she loses the battle.

Parenting never ends.  My son is 38 and I still give my input.  Because he is 38 my Mentality is “You can receive this or reject it.”  At 38 the bottom line is it is HIS decision.  At 5 this should have never been a decision for her.  Doctors have medical experience, but they do not know what is at the end of the tunnel.  That last FIGHT could produce a Miracle.  Our children are ours, but they Belong to God.  Because I told my son I am clear with God and now his decision is on him.  At 5 that decision is on her parents.  As in everything that Belongs to God people will answer to God for how they handled what Belongs to Him.

As my daily Bible reading shows NOT having “after his own heart” always catches up to people:

“Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa.  And the Philistines followed hard upon Saul and upon his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, Saul’s sons.  And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him; and he was sore wounded of the archers.  Then said Saul unto his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.  And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise upon his sword, and died with him.  So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men, that same day together.  And when the men of Israel that were on the other side of the valley, and they that were on the other side Jordan, saw that the men of Israel fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.  And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen in mount Gilboa.  And they cut off his head, and stripped off his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the house of their idols, and among the people.” (I Samuel 31:1-9)

“December 25th” is what I call the day.  It is not Christmas Anymore because Jesus is not the Reason for the Season Anymore.  I do not understand why people are upset about Starbucks’ “red cup.”  They are just being honest.  Even though that is the way it is I still tell people “Merry Christmas” not Happy Holidays.  Make sure “after his own heart” is part of your Christmas Celebration!  It is Jesus’ Birthday so be sure to give Him “Your Life Everyday” as His Present!!  “Silent Night” sung by The Temptations is on my “Fitness Walking Playlist” so I sing it all year long because Christmas is Everyday!!!

HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
