A Brief Pause with Andy B, 22.06.2022
Wishing doesn’t change what is.
It just robs us of our ability to enjoy what is.

It’s good to check in with God during the day, so take a brief pause every hour or so and reflect on this quote/image.

This is a sad day for Finland. 😢 A transgender law was accepted today which allows men/female couples to have children as being the childs only parents. Also the definition of "mother" and "father" is going to change. A biological woman giving birth to a child can now be the father of the child. So crazy!!
If Italy is going through a punishment of God, so will be the case for Finland too. We are today stepping aside from God's blessings and shelter with this law that violates His standards and creation. 🥶😭 God have mercy on us!! 🙏
S04E085, Play the cards you’re dealt! Andy B 2 Minute Video
When you’re playing cards you can wish a better hand, as much as you like. But, at some point, you have to accept the cards you’ve been dealt.
And it is much the same in life. We can wish for a better car, a better job, a better house, a better retirement plan, better health. But wishing just pushes us deeper into a place of being sad and depressed.
Wishing doesn’t change what is. It just robs us of our ability to enjoy what is.
Rather than wishing away our lives, we need to accept what is. We don’t accept it as something that can never change, but we do need to begin to change from where we are at. [READ MORE]

@davereimer @faith20 @Berrybunchfamily May God provide for all His children. He sees and cares. May He also use you to bring hope to those in darkness living around you. May He give you peace as you trust in Him.
@faith20 @Cherishingsparrows2020 @Berrybunchfamily We’re not getting much here in South Carolina either.

They say that in the last six months it has rained only 25 days. Normally in autumn and winter in Northern Italy it rains very often and even rivers break through.
@Berrybunchfamily @faith20 Wow! I had no idea Italy was facing a drought like this!
Dear brother Andy,
I also think the same thing. Everything that is happening in Italy but also in other countries is a sign that some form of judgment is taking place.
Obviously these are not yet the judgments mentioned in the book of Revelation but history and humanity are going in the direction indicated by the end times prophecies. God's Word will be fully fulfilled as time passes. It has been a long time since my wife and I have been preparing to be to serve the Lord in these difficult times. God will give us strength.
God bless you.
Your brother Antonio

Drought - the Po is the largest river in Italy and is a navigable river. A few years ago I also sailed it with a motor ship to accompany my students on an outdoor excursion. Now everything has become a desert.

S04E084, Andy B 2 Minute Video, Good Struggles
Life can be full of struggles. Some can be good – like the effort needed to build muscle in a gym. The struggle feels good, because we can – possibly slowly – see a positive difference to our bodies. Some struggles can be bad – like grieving a loved one when we’re not ready to say goodbye to them, or having to live with life changing injuries from an accident that was not our fault.
In her book, Hiding Place, Corrie Ten Boom wonderfully illustrates how things that can at first appear truly awful, can be God’s blessings - which is why her sister was praising God for the fleas that attacked them where they slept in the middle of a concentration camp during World War II. If you want to know why that was such a blessing to them, you’ll need to read the book! [READ MORE]

"Church should be welcoming and comfortable, but not too comfortable.
Comfy seats are great, but comfy sermons are not!"

S04E083, Andy B 2 Minute Video, Clear The Memory Banks
When carrying out some rather widespread and deep website building work, Nathan and I ran across a really odd problem to have! Because, every time we loaded one video, another one kept on displaying instead.
After something of a panic, since it seemed to affect every video we had been working on, I thought about clearing the cache - for our internet browser.
If you’re more computer savvy than me (not very hard) then sorry for the following explanation:
The cache is much like the memory for your internet browser. When you visit a website and see a picture, the cache remembers that image and displays it for you, to save you data and time, without bothering to go and look to see if the latest image matches what it thought was there. [READ MORE]

i'm having an issue with an IP address and i'm getting very confused...i vaguely understand what one is, but that's about it
you seem rather techno savvy - do you know anything about VPNs?
it appears the IP address we've currently got assigned has been reported for spam when another user had it...

Fear God, not your boss.
Your boss can give you money for a time, and some security.
God has guaranteed you security for eternity, but only if you choose it.

Happy Father’s Day, 2022
It's an interesting father's Day today!
This is the first one since my father died last Autumn (2021). It struck me, suddenly, this morning, that he was no more.
He didn't want anything to do with me and my family, so we'd been estranged for over a decade. It was what it was, and I was ok with that - you can't force people to like or love you: I'm not sure how that makes me feel...
Perhaps you're reading this and have a similarly strange emotion today. Perhaps you loved your dad and he was snatched away before you were ready and breathing felt too great a burden to bear. Perhaps you've never known who your biological father is. Perhaps your father was, or is, abusive towards you, or others whom you love. Perhaps your dad no longer remembers your name, through no fault of their own. [READ MORE ON OUR WEBSITE]

listening to a song earlier and there was a line about "you bought me my favourite flowers"
so, women of the ding, do you have a favourite flower? (men do the women in your life have a special flower)
I asked Jo, but she simply stated she couldn't tell me as she wasn't all women
answer what it is in the comments if you (or they) do
now i'm super curious!
Jo once bought me flowers....and I cried - i pointed out that is seemed wrong that only women were traditionally bought flowers, and i'd like some too...that was our first year of marriage 😊
