The Lilly portion for today:
Women! For attractive lips, speak words of kindness - For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people - For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry - For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day - For poise, walk with the knowledge you will never walk alone. YHVH is with you.
Small Straws by Marsha Burns
I will show you things that you need to recognize from the past; things that will reveal a need for correction. But, you must not dwell on times of rejection and reproach, which could cause you to lose heart. Rather, review difficult times objectively with an eye to make adjustments and then move on. This is an opportunity for freedom and greater spiritual strength. Philippians 3:13-14
Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself as having taken hold of this. But this one thing I do: forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal for the reward of the upward calling of God in Messiah Yeshua.
- Philippians 3:13-14 TLV

It's good and bad, but most of my life has been forgotten like how it wasn't just blacks picking cotton. All diseases humanity brought in and no war has innocence ever fought in. Only when things are bad do we remember all that we've gotten, but we'll live life like eating a cake and we pretend it isn't rotten. We argue about who's a slave, but we've all been boughten.
Talking about slaves; don't you know that everyone rides those waves, even those who run away and live in caves. It's doesn't matter if you're rich or poor cause' you'll get the same graves. Humanity is lost so long as we allow craves over intelligence like choosing death over what saves. ScopeX causes massive droughts and heatwaves while the police are allowed to dress like the military and deter you with giant microwaves. People claim to want freedom, but every new law depraves. Honesty and integrity is now the definition of one who misbehaves. The truth is all that shaves.
But anyways, it's the little things that let you know that not everything is bad and I'm telling you that if you ignore these that you'll barely be glad. Looking at every negative only is how your life is mainly sad and each event changes life a tad. You should always start with everyone being your comrade. They'll weed themselves out if you take care. Fools will light themselves up like a launch pad.
Thought For Today: Friday September 22:
Abba Elohiym, teach me not to procrastinate but to do what I can today because there is no promise of tomorrow. Lead me to those people who are in need of something that I can give. I want to be available for You to use in any way that You should choose. Amein
A Woman of Purity

Abba on the authority of Your Word, I declare and decree that I am a new creation in Moshiach. I repent of my former sins, receive Your forgiveness and renew my mind -- replacing old thought patterns and habits, with Your thoughts and plans for me. I was a sinner, separated from Moshiach. But now, in Moshiach my Adonai, I have been brought near through the Blood of Moshiach. I confess that Yeshua is my Adonai, and I believe in my heart that You raised Him from the dead. Therefore. I am engrafted in Moshiach, the Messiah. Now, I am a new creation, the old -- previous moral and spiritual condition -- has passed away. Behold the fresh and new has come. Since I have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the Blood of Yeshua, by a new and living way opened for me through the curtain -- His Body and since I have a great High Priest over the House of YHVH. I draw near to You Adonai, with the sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having my heart sprinkled to cleanse me from a guilty conscience and having my body washed with pure water. I hold unswervingly to the hope I profess, for He Who promised this faithful. And I consider how I may spur others on towards love and good deeds. I will not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing; but I will encourage others, and all the more as I see the Day approaching. Abba. I am Your daughter; Your handmaid, and You have poured out Your Spirit upon me and I shall prophecy. I seek first of all Your Kingdom and Your Righteousness, Your way of doing and being right, and then all these things taken together, will be given me besides. I will not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble. As Your daughter, I thank You for enduing me with Your Grace – free, spontaneous, absolute favour and loving kindness. With You Abba, nothing is ever impossible, and no Word from You shall be without power or impossible of fulfilment. Abba, I submit to Your will for my life. Your ways are higher than my ways, Your thoughts higher than my thoughts. I commit my way to You and You will cause my thoughts to become agreeable to Your will and so shall my plans be established and succeed. I am your handmaid; let it be done to me according to Your Word. Since I have such huge crowd of people of faith watching me, I strip off anything that slows me down or hold me back, and especially those sins that wrap themselves so tightly around my feet and trip me up; and I run with patience the particular race that You have set before me. I keep my eyes on Yeshua my Leader, my Saviour and my Instructor. Abba, to the pure You show Yourself pure and to the wilful You show Yourself wilful. The afflicted people You will deliver but Your eyes are upon the haughty, whom You will bring down. For You O Adonai, are my Lamp. You Adonai, lighten my darkness. For by You, I run through a troop; by You I leap over a wall. As for You Adonai, Your way is perfect; Your Word is tried. You are my Shield for I trust and take refuge in You. O Abba, that I might ascend to the hill of Adonai and stand in Your Holy Place. I come with clean hands and a pure heart, refusing to lift up my soul, to an idol or to swear by what is false that I may receive blessing and vindication from You, My YHVH and my Saviour. Surely my Adonai and my YHVH, You are good to those who are pure in heart in Yeshua. Name I pray. Amen.
