do not

If we see the sign above, do we follow? Why is it innate in us humans to do what we are not supposed to do? Why so simple yet so hard? I'll give you scenarios. A man driving saw a sign no u turn. A lady wearing high heeled shoes saw please use the other door. A student saw a sign no id no entry. In life we encountered numerous signs that we sometimes do the other way around that usually lead to a darn day. How much more if we don't follow the commandments of God? During the Old Testament there were ten, but with the New Testament it was cut into two. And you can find it in the book of Mark 12:28-34.

Earthquakes, flood, war, and world destructions are signs that the end is near. You can read it thoroughly in the book of Revelation. But how soon is now. A thousand years could mean a day for God. 

We do have our own strengths and weaknesses. We have our own struggles in life we have to face each and every day somewhat like the thorns in the flesh of Paul. However, he proudly said that for him to live is Christ and to die is gain.

We all fall short for the glory of God. But if we do it as a habit, it's a different story.

Can we try to follow the signs? I guess it won’t hurt.

Human closet

Fahionistas and wanna bes. Most of us gain more confidence in dressing up. Her highness queen B, once said in a series Gossip Girl, it is a sin not to look stunning. At times, high society people rehearse their get up made by their own choice of designer on the upcoming event; such as awards night, important meetings, or countless parties and the likes. For an ordinary people, they merely choose their best for an event like birthday parties, gatherings, or just an out of town vacation, etc.

I remember the ANTM (America's next top model), one of the tasks of the wanna bes was to walked on a runway wearing an ordinary sack. Tyra, Ms. Jay and the other judges should feel the contenders' confidence as they were clothed with just a sack. Mama Tyra said that a model should wear what they are told and walk fabulously on the runway even if shoes, upper or lower garment doesn't fit them. Being a Cinderella’s step sister is a must for them.

As a person, God never asked us what to wear and how we should look like on how to pray and praise Him. Though during B.C., high priests had their own fair share on how to give offerings to gain the forgiveness of the Lord. They wore their everyday long white cloth with chains around their feet and a steel ball to let the others know that they're still alive. King David praise God naked. God only looks at the most important thing on praising Him which is our heart. We could clean our hearts when we ask for forgiveness from Him and answers our requests if they are decorated with right motives and accessorized them in His time.

We are human closets not only closet queens. You're asking me why. Because we hide or keep secrets. I'll elaborate more on this in the near future.

Nobody knows when Jesus will be back on Earth. Some people said that at a particular day the Lord will come. It’s already proven that it is only a lie since we are still alive and kicking. All we could do is to prepare ourselves and hold on to our faith in Jesus and Jesus only coz He is the only One that could save a man, so that when the right time comes we will be included in the rapture so that we will not be able to experience how God will end the world.

On a lighter note, if you know when Jesus will be here on Earth, what would you wear?

I think the most fashionable things are clothesline, clothes clip, and hangers.
