You are an optimist. You allow yourself to indulge, and you take delight in new and colorful things.
You have a sense of stability and inner comfort that others lack. You know how to find your happy place.
Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
The coffee shop calls me Cookie Monster so I do not need a quiz to know who I am. -4 predicted here tonight, pumpkins will be mush when they thaw out.
Oh...I am candy.
Bible in a Year:
In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. John 16:33 In These Are the Generations, Mr. Bae describes God’s faithfulness and the power of the gospel to penetrate the darkness. His grandfather, parents, and his own family were all persecuted for sharing their faith in Christ. But an interesting thing happened when Mr. Bae was imprisoned for telling a friend about God: his faith grew. The same was true for his parents when they were sentenced to a concentration camp—they continued to share Christ’s love even there. Mr. Bae found the promise of John 1:5 to be true: “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
Before His arrest and crucifixion, Jesus warned His disciples about the trouble they’d face. They would be rejected by people who “will do such things because they have not known the Father or me” (16:3). But Jesus offered words of comfort: “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” (v. 33).
While many believers in Jesus haven’t experienced persecution on the level of that endured by the family of Mr. Bae, we can expect to face trouble. But we don’t have to give in to discouragement or resentment. We have a Helper—the Holy Spirit Jesus promised to send. We can turn to Him for guidance and comfort (v. 7). The power of God’s presence can hold us steady in dark times.
What trouble have you experienced as a believer in Christ or witnessed others experiencing? What is your first reaction during hard times?
Heavenly Father, please protect Your children who are experiencing persecution.
Hi Luv.
Sez here this week that I am a bit of a showoff. Who knew.
You Are a Costume
You are outgoing and even a little flashy. When you have something to show off, you want others to notice.
You are naturally competitive, but it’s all in good fun. You like to try to be the best at something.
You are socially inclusive and love to celebrate. You’re always up for a party, and unlike most people, you love to mingle.
You are witty and lively. You love to entertain others and make sure that things are never too dull.
Anyone who meets you automatically sees how sweet you are. You love to make others smile. You are fun and energetic without being overwhelming. You have a lightness to you that others appreciate. You are an optimist. You allow yourself to indulge, and you take delight in new and colorful things. You have a sense of stability and inner comfort that others lack. You know how to find your happy place.

That would be a fun choice. What is your favorite costume?
Howdy, PRO! I see you have a sweet tooth, too. What’s your favorite?
Maybe you’ll get a candy treat on Halloween! Do you leave the lights on?
Duuuude.......
Gotta admit....you’re kinda sorta sweet. :)
How about you?
bttt
Looks like a lot of people are candy.
I hope I’m something good.
“You are the orange mushy stuff scooped out of the pumpkin and immediately thrown in the garbage.”
Well.....that figures.
It’s been one of those days.
Reese’s or Hershey Kisses. Mmmm...
