Beautiful Foods : Valentine's Day

Here we are at the brink of Valentine's Day with all the beautiful fun foods. 

Some of them are difficult and time consuming to make, but all are wonderful when they are completed!

The attributes of what makes good desserts are one thing, but what about people? 

Specifically, I am speaking of God's people, the God of the Bible, and those who believe in Him and follow Him.

When you are a follower of the God of the Bible and His son, Jesus, who saved those who believe in Him from their sins, you are a Christian. 

Christians are sinners who are saved by God's grace through Jesus Christ. Our role now is to live as God's children following how Jesus lived. How do we do this? We can't be God, but we can follow principles of God's attributes.

Some attributes of God which we can learn from for our own lives are:

--How to love and how to love the unlovely

--How to be sad and yet continue to live and love because of Him

--How to know how to show compassion, live compassionately

--Goodness. Learn how Jesus lived, how God the Father desires us to be good

 

--Just. The LORD God is just. We can learn to be just and compassionate

These 3 Attributes, (thank you to Hope Bolinger, Christianity.com) :

Knowledge: God gifted us with our ability to think and know about Him. Without such knowledge, we cannot come to know about God’s goodness and His saving work.

Reason: God has given us the skills to reason and think logically. Apologists implement such reason to bolster the veracity of the Gospel through arguments and proofs such as the Kalam Cosmological Argument.

Truth: We have an innate sense of truth. We want to know what is and isn’t factual about the fabric of our reality

  

------------------------------------------------------------------

We live our lives in all we do to glorify His Name! We can never be perfect here on earth, but our job is to wholeheartedly try and do.

So beautiful sisters in Christ, let's do!  :o)

2 Peter 1:1-11

"To those who have received a faith of the same kind 

as ours, by the righteousness of our God 

and Savior, Jesus Christ:

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge 

of God and of Jesus our Lord; seeing that His divine 

power has granted to us everything pertaining to life 

and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him 

who called us by His own glory and excellence.

For by these He has granted to us His precious and 

magnificent promises, so that by them you may become 

partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the 

corruption that is in the world by lust.

Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, 

in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral 

excellence, knowledge, and in your knowledge, 

self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, 

and in your perseverance, godliness, and in your godliness, 

brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love.

For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they 

render you neither useless nor unfruitful in the true 

knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For he who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted, 

having forgotten his purification from his former sins.

Therefore, brethren, be all the more diligent to make 

certain about His calling and choosing you; for as long 

as you practice these things, you will never stumble;

for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom 

of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly 

supplied to you."...
