Barfy day
Day started off nauseous. Then got a bright smile. Had to say goodbye to one of my dearest friends of all times. Got a great,Fabulous massage from someone who specializes in oncology. Had an enema and foot massage. Also a fun friend who made me laugh. She read a sweet letter from a neighbor the letter was wonderful and made us both cry. Continuing to violently barf through the day. But in between I have had lots of good laughs and smiles.

Our temple is our body
The Body is a Temple
“It is not good to eat much honey, nor is it glory to search out one’s own glory.” Proverbs 25:27 - Proverbs 25:27
Christianity teaches that the body is the temple of God’s spirit and that we are to take care of our bodies. But gluttony and obesity in America are at epidemic levels, as are eating disorders.
The original intent of those who suffer from eating disorders, mainly teenage girls, is to take control of their bodies by eating less. But, over time, they can become obsessed by controlling their food intake in a way that is similar to gluttony, but with the opposite effect.
There are three main types of these eating disorders:
Anorexia—eating too little or being rigidly obsessed with avoiding perceived unhealthy foods.
Bulimia—binge eating and then throwing up or taking laxatives to avoid weight gain.
Exercise Bulimia—an obsession with exercise without enough caloric intake to replace the caloric output.
Each of these can bring great harm to the body. And like all addictions, whether food, booze, drugs, or sex, the addictions are substitutes for the place of God in the addicted person’s life.
If you suffer from an addiction that harms your body, seek God’s forgiveness and His help. Then, find others who can assist you in achieving victory over the unhealthy addiction.
I read all this and totally agree I just have to say withmy time benign limited all I can think about at this moment is a huge warm roll from a donut chain. I would be so sammy

Timing is everything....
The Greatest Evidence of Life After Life
"Mary Magdalene came, announcing to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord..." - John 20:18
All through the ages, man has speculated about life after life. Dante's Divine Comedy seeks to describe it. Modern medical science has added to the speculation with its study of near-death experiences. Now all kinds of religions offer their theories.
But, the greatest evidence of life after life is in the historical evidence that Jesus rose from the dead. Christianity is the only faith founded by a man who died and came back to life. No other religion makes that claim.
Historical accounts of His appearances to His disciples, and over 500 people at one time, were written within twenty years of the event. His disciples faced martyrs' deaths for refusing to quit preaching of His death and resurrection.
People don't willingly die for something they know is a hoax.
The one thing that would have stopped Christianity in its tracks would have been for Rome or religious authorities to produce the dead body of Jesus. They never did. The best evidence of life after life is the historical evidence of Jesus' resurrection.
