WHY the name???

I was listening to Focus On The Family earlier and the man was telling a story about a little boy that was lost in the grocery store. So this little boy started calling out his mommy's name! He said, "Heather! Heather! HEATHER!!!" Finally his mommy heard him and came and rescued him from being lost. But after she hugged him and calmed him down she asked him WHY he called her Heather and not just MOMMY??? And the little boy said, because Mommy, there are A LOT of mommies in this store...BUUUUUUUUUUUT I WANTED...
MY MOMMY!!!
.
Now, this had absolutely NOTHING to do with the point of the story that the radio was saying, buuuuuuuuuut this got me to thinking, when I was in college, writing for the college paper, I was writing an inspiring story and I was quoting the girl that the story was written about and I wrote, that she said she found love in the arms of Jesus. My teacher, who was a "Christian" said, how about, INSTEAD of saying in the arms of JESUS, how about we paraphrase her to say she found love in the arms of GOD! I was just kinda like, okaaaaaay buuuuut I don't really see WHYYYY??? I mean, after all, JESUS IS GOD!!!
.
 She said, well because when you say God, people are MORE ACCEPTING of that, because almost everyone believes in God in some sort of way or the other. Muslims, Jews, Hindu, Budhists, Bahai, ...they all believe in God, so they won't mind reading God, buuuuut WHEN YOU SAY, Jesus, now your being exclusive, because most people believe in God, buuuuut they don't believe that JESUS IS GOD!!! Weeeeeeeeellll...this DID NOT SET WELL WITH ME AT ALL!!! I mean, I HAD NO problem just saying God, UNTIL she explained to me WHY! That's what I call watering down and diluting the message, compromising...annnnd YES...also the reason WHY I didn't make it as a Christian in a career of Journalism!!! LOL
.
You wanna know WHY I like to say JESUS, soooo much WHEN I PRAY??? Because, this world is filled with "gods," buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut...when I have a problem, when I have a need, when I am afraid, when I need a shelter, when I need a friend, when I'm scared and alone, I DON't just want any ol god, I SAY JESUS!!!
BECAUSE...
I WANT MY GOD!!!

Bible Notes!!!

Sooooooo the other day I'm reading my Bible and look to see WHAT I had previously written underneath a highlighted scripture in my Bible...
It's "These are the things which defile a man," (thefts, fornications, false witness, blastphemies, murder, adultery...) "but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man..." THEN I have written under that, "We do NOT need to wash our hands!"
.
YES, for realz my friends...I REALLY WROTE THAT IN MY BIBLE!!! BAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! I wish I could say that I've had this Bible since I was a child, buuuuuuuuuuuuut, i'm pretty sure I've had it since I was at least 18 maybe even in my 20's...AHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! Buuuuuuuuuuut heeeeeeeeyyyy just to spiritualize my notes, WHEN YOUR DOING THE LORD'S WORK...you JUST NEVER KNOW when your going to have to eat something WITHOUT WASHING YOUR HANDS...Soooo there you have it...IT'S OK...JUST EAT AND DO THE WORK OF THE LORD!!! LOLOLOL!!!

A Quarantined Hike!!!

Soooooooooo i'm pretty much cool with everything being shutdown, except for church ANNNNND the mountains!!! If they stop me from hiking i'm going to be REALLY DEVESTATED!!! 
The AllTrails App made me agree to this statement, I was like, YEEEEEEESSS whatever it takes, just take me to the trails!!! 
.
Soooooooooo I've been trying to wake up early enough to make it to the top of the mountain in time to see the sun rising, but so far I havn't been successful, I think I need to get up at 4:20 tomorrow-yeah, i'm crazy buuuuut I got to bed super early, like between 8 and 9:30 usually,

 anywayz, when I got to the top yesterday, there's like one more little hill that everyone runs up, there's no pretty view once you get to that hill, but there's a fence with a sign on it with a hand and your supposed to high-five it- then you've officially completed your workout hike!!! 
Soooooooo when I got to the top I see that the high-five hand has been crossed out, cuz of COVED19, I don't know why, buuuuut it really cracked me up!!! I was like, what if we just lysoled it??? 
Soooooooo I just 
Air-high-fived it!!! :D
I mean,  you gotta do what you gotta do to COMPLETE the hike ANNNNNND stay healthy!!
.
Oh and WAAAAAIIIIITTTT...
.
There's also a paw print lower for the dogs that hike to high-five, and theirs was crossed out too! That really busted me up!!! Ain't no dog gonna get sick...let's not mention that fact that their paws have been touching the ground the WHOLE hike!!!
Can dogs even get it??? 
Oh wait, it all started with a bat...soooooooo apparently so!!! 
.
Oh and then they have this sign up with like COVED19 hiking guidelines, and the one that just cracked me up was, Make sure you wash your hands continuously with soap and water...
I'm like, YEEEEEEEEESSSS, because I don't know how many times I've gone up a mountain, seen a sink on the side and said, NOPE, not gonna wash my hands!!! AHAHAHAHAAHAAA!!!
