Greetings. “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.” As Mae has blogged, she lost her adult child, over a month ago. Yes, Mae is still grieving. Sometimes, demonic forces, (aware of our situations) will use people (believers and unbelievers) to accomplish goals. A believer used Mae’s adult child’s death in a…
Eternal Life
Greetings. It’s been a while since Mae has posted. This post is hard because Mae has suffered yet another loss–an adult child. Mae is going through another Job season. Clarification: not a literal Job season because Mae could not handle what Job went through. Although Mae has experienced a lot of losses, she has a…
God is in Control
“Regardless of the outcome, God is in control.” A few days ago, Mae received a phone call, followed by a text, to pray for a believer, hospitalized due to low oxygen levels, pneumonia, etc. (because of Covid). Mae immediately flashed back to her brother’s unexpected Covid death. Yet Mae went before God on behalf of…
Relationship Transparency
Greetings. Mae recently joined a (newly created) Christian social media site. One may ask, what does this have to do with transparency? Well, Mae witnessed transparency at its best. A lady’s post stated that out of respect for her husband and marriage, she wouldn’t be entertaining males. That was profound. Mae is not saying that…
Rejoicing at Suffering?
As Mae studies the book of Job, she is reminded of an individual who rejoices in the suffering of others. Yes, you heard right. This individual is quick to say that an individual (she may have had a past beef with) suffering happened because they wronged her. I have even heard her say that a…
Another Loss
It has been awhile since Mae has blogged. Mae blogs tonight, with a heavy heart, after suffering yet another loss. Mae lost another sibling, (this one to Covid). The death occured nine months after the sudden death of another parent. Despite the losses, Mae takes comfort in Deuteronomy 31:6 with the promise that He will…
Divorce (and remarriage)
Mae tries to steer clear of controversial topics–not today, especially after seeing a discussion on this topic that was not backed by scripture and where a part of scripture was left out. The Bible does not contradict itself. Scripture is to be interpreted in light of other scripture and one is not to add nor…
Jesus, do not include?
A few days ago, Mae received the shock of her life when she tried to create an on line account for a service. Mae tried to use the word, Jesus as part of her password. A prompt came across the screen, “Your password cannot include the word “jesus.” Mae was furious. Mae called the company…
Correction?
A very strong message is weighing heavy in my Spirit. Stop bashing your Christian brothers and or sisters on social media. This weekend, I witnessed a lot of this. I have a question, what example are we setting as believers? If you have a problem with your Christian brother or sister, instant message them. Don’t…
Married A Narcissist
A narcissist’s article came across my newsfeed. It brought back memories of the day I met and married a narcissist. He was not the most attractive person, but neither is Mae. After a few days, he told Mae he was falling in love with her and she would be his wife. He kept asking Mae…
