Happy Thanksgiving: From Grief To Comfort

Happy Thanksgiving, P.I.M PALS!

🍂\(o^-^o)/🍂

Picture by Selene Washington on http://www.pimandpink.com

🍁

Thanksgiving is a wonderful time when we celebrate the people and things we are thankful for and embrace those of whom we are most grateful. While Thanksgiving typically brings about great joy, it can also be a time of great sorrow and grief for those who have lost loved ones. For those who have lost people close to them, Thanksgiving can be a painful reminder of what they once had instead of a celebration of what they are grateful for. If you are one of these people currently grieving the loss of a loved one or loved ones this Thanksgiving, then here is what I want to tell you:

Run to Jesus. His arms are wide open and are filled with a deep love that only He can give you. If you feel lonely this Thanksgiving Day (or any day for that matter), remember that Jesus sincerely loves you and that He wants you to live in His love. Know that Jesus’s love will bring you the ultimate comfort in the midst of your pain and sorrow.

There are several Bible verses that speak of Jesus’s care towards those in sorrow, a few of which I have listed to remind you of the love and comfort He gives to those who are brokenhearted or crushed in spirit.

🍁 Matthew 5:4 (ESV) 🍁

“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”

🍁 Psalm 147:3 (ESV) 🍁

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”

🍁 1 Peter 5:7 (NIV) 🍁

“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.”

🍁 Psalm 34:18 (NIV) 🍁

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”

🍁 Matthew 11:28-30 (NIV) 🍁

Jesus says, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

🍁 Romans 8:38-39 (NIV) 🍁

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Therefore, reader, by running towards God, your Father in Heaven, and crying out to Him about the loss of your loved one or loved ones, you will receive His comfort and peace that surpasses your own human understanding, and God will turn your wailing into dancing, as it says in the Bible verse, Psalm 30:11-12 (NIV) which says, “You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise you forever.” 🎼✨

With that being said, Happy Thanksgiving, P.I.M PALS. ♡

I hope that all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving day today filled with joy and peace! For there is so much to be thankful for even in this life that is filled with many hardships. ✨🍁 🦃

I have the freedom to choose, and I choose purity

Hi, P.I.M PALS! (🤍^-^🤍)/

Welcome to today’s blog post called, “I have the freedom to choose, and I choose purity”.

Picture by Selene Washington on http://www.pimandpink.com

You and I have the freedom to choose how we want to live our lives, and based on that, I choose to live a life of purity. 

Purity is the quality or state of being pure. To be pure means to be perfectly free from sin and corruption. 🤍

Nowadays, purity is not popular because it is seen as a “restrictive” lifestyle. For those of you who think that, you are right, it is. However, purity is only restrictive if you are trying to live opposite of it.

If you are doing things that you think are enjoyable, but those same things are actually sinful and against God Who calls us to live pure lives, then naturally you will be opposed to purity because it condemns the things that you think are okay.

In short, if the things you enjoy doing that you think are “good”, “natural”, or even “right” are actually sinful, and therefore impure, then like many people in this world, you will view purity as “toxic” and “boring” and those who promote and encourage purity as “controlling”, including God.

Furthermore, not only is purity seen as restrictive but it is also seen as a difficult lifestyle to maintain. This is also true as such a lifestyle requires purity in all aspects of our lives. In order to be truly pure, our hearts, minds, bodies, spirits, words, actions, and character must all be pure, amongst other things. And considering that we are all plagued with sinful desires, maintaining a pure lifestyle is impossible, but that is only if we try to do it alone.

The only way we can hope to live a life of purity is by trusting in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who sacrificed Himself so that all of us can be freed from the bondage of sin and impurity and receive eternal life in heaven with God. By trusting in Jesus, He will guide us to live a life free from sin and the pain and suffering that accompanies sin. Jesus makes a pure life possible. ✨

In this way, you can see how a life of purity actually gives you the ultimate freedom: freedom from sin. And not only is it freeing, but it also brings true joy. When you start living a pure life, you will find yourself starting to desire the things of God and rejecting sinful things, including those sinful things that you enjoyed doing before. Once that happens, you will see that purity is anything but “boring” or “unfulfilling”. 

Purity is fulfilling and freeing! And it is possible when you have Jesus guiding you. 🤍

You have the freedom to choose purity. Like everyone else who says, “I do what I want”, you can also say that when it comes to purity. The difference between you and everyone else, however, is that you will be choosing purity, not just because you are free to choose how you want to live, but also because you know it is the right way to live. ✨

I encourage you to choose purity, and to be just as strong in your choice as everyone else who is strong in theirs. You may be mocked and criticized for your choice, but do not be discouraged, because God is by your side.

God will help you to stand firm in your choice to live purely, and He will help you to respond to those mockers, not with mockery of your own, but with encouragement to make the same choice. 

Ezekiel 3:8-9 (NIV) ✨ in the Bible says, “But I will make you as unyielding and hardened as they are. I will make your forehead like the hardest stone, harder than flint. Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious people.”

Therefore, know that God will make you just as stone-faced as anyone else with a strong stance, and He will strengthen you and embolden you in your choice to live a pure life that is free from sin and sinful desires. 💪🤍✨
