----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

I stepped on the scale today, and when I saw what it read, I covered my eyes and cried. I did it. I have lost 100 pounds. ONE HUNDRED POUNDS. I've wanted this for so long, and have worked so hard, and I finally got here. The last couple of months have been frustrating in the "I just want to be there already" sort of way. And now I'm here and I can't completely believe it because it's been a really long time since I started this.
Nine years ago I started this journey. Growing up I was always overweight - but didn't give it much thought - other than, "well, this is just the way I am." I grew tired of it. I didn't want to live my life like that anymore. Even though I didn't want to live like that, I did nothing to change it. Exercising or eating right never even crossed my mind. I never even tried. On December 31st, 1999 I thought again that I didn't want to live my life like this, and decided I WILL NOT live my life like this. And so began my journey.
Shortly before my decision, my car broke down on my way home from work one night. I had to walk home 3 miles in the cold. I never thought I could do it. I remember thinking, "Three miles? That's a long ways for a fat girl!" I made it home, and was surprised how well it went. Once I made my decision to make a change, I knew I could get in shape by at least walking...thanks to my car breaking down. So, I did. Every day I would walk three miles in the freezing cold...soon moving to 4 miles a day. Homedog would join me on occasion, and it became our bonding time. When I felt like I was in a little better shape, we started doing Tae-Bo together. And, guess what? I started losing weight. I remember maybe 4 months into it I was reaching down to get something and my hand brushed across the back of my leg and I felt a bump. I immediately thought to myself, "Holy CRAP! What is that??" I then realized it was muscle. That was the first time I ever remember feeling strong and proud of what I had been doing. In those first 6 months, I quickly dropped 40 pounds. I felt amazing.
Over the next couple of years I kept on my continual quest to lose weight. I tried Slim Fast, Atkins, the Oprah Diet, cereal diets, Weight Watchers...and on and on. These things would work for about 3 months and I'd be feeling really great and then I would just somehow lose all momentum. I'd gain all my weight back and stop working out. I kept going in these circles. I wasn't getting anywhere. This lasted for the better part of 5 years. Weight Watchers was really good for me. It taught me to be aware of what I was putting in my body, and know that I can still enjoy food without being so rigid about it. Eventually I got tired of it, and didn't want to pay for it anymore. I stopped WW at the beginning of 2007. Instead I decided I'd just be more conscious of my food intake and start being more consistent with my working out. This was also the year where I decided to do one running race per month. This really kept me on track. For the past two years, I have been consistent. No more 3 month circles. No more losing a bunch and gaining it all back. I really began to realize that it's a process. A long, difficult, often times sucky one. I'm not going to meet my goal over night. Just as important, I learned to not beat myself up if I had one bad day of eating. In the past, that one bad day would have completely sidelined me. Nope, not this time, I decided. I just had to keep moving forward. And that's what I've done now for the past 2 years. Who knew the secret to success would have been eating right and exercising? ;)
This past year has been one of the best years of my life. I have continued to be vigilant about what I eat. I have picked harder, and longer races each month to push me and help me stay on track. I bought a bike, and it was one of the best investments I have ever made. I have seen myself really change inside and out. I am driven by my goals and seeing my goals through makes me happy. I nearly cried every time I saw a number on the scale that I had never seen before. It reinforced that I am actually doing this. It is working, and I am making progress. Sometimes I also nearly cried when I had a bad week... or weeks. I was frustrated and angry, but I knew I couldn't give up. 3 steps forward, 5 back it seemed at times. I'll be honest. I thought I'd never get to this point. I had bad days and would sit on the couch self loathing, and would make myself shut up, get up, and go work out. There were also bad days where I sat on the couch self loathing and stayed there feeling sorry for myself. Those days just happen. But I don't let them happen as much anymore. They don't benefit me in any way shape or form. Somehow I just need to force myself to keep moving forward.
Yes, it was a physical transformation, but it was also just as big an emotional transformation. I value myself now. I see my self worth. I am confident, and strong, and happy with myself and all I have accomplished. It is hard. Every day it is hard. Each day is full of a bunch of small decisions that can make or break me. Do I hate getting up early in the morning to work out? Yes. Do I hate having to scrutinize every menu before I get to a restaurant to decide what to eat? Yes. Do I hate having to order: no fries, no sauce, no cheese, no fun? Yes. Do I hate knowing that this will be a battle my whole life? Yes. Do I hate that I have to be constantly aware of how many calories I am putting in my body? Yes. Do I hate being sore and tired and sick of going to the gym 6 days a week? Yes. Are all of these sacrifices worth it? A thousand times, yes. I would not trade any of these things to go back to the person I used to be. It feels better to LOVE feeling strong. LOVE going into a store and finding clothes that actually fit and look good. LOVE knowing I am capable of starting and finishing whatever I decide to do. LOVE knowing I finished in the top 10% of the 2008 Danskin. LOVE riding my bike and beating all those boys on the bike trail. LOVE the fact that I have done 4 triathlons, 24 running races, and have finished 3 half-marathons. LOVE that my average running pace has dropped from 12:30/mi. to 9:20/mi. LOVE remembering when I saw my collar bone for the first time. LOVE that I have gone down 14 sizes. LOVE Homedog acting surprised when she noticed I no longer had sausage fingers. LOVE the times I catch myself in the gym mirror and am surprised because whoa, that is ME...not some other girl who is in shape. LOVE myself.
Often times during a particularly difficult race when I just couldn't imagine going on, I would think to myself, "the old me never could have done this." Then I realized that's not entirely true. The old me just never tried to do this. The old me just never put forth the effort. The old me is still part of the new me. The old me helps the new me realize what I am capable of. It helps me challenge myself. Prove myself.
Beyond the compliments of "you look great" the compliment that means more than anything to me is..."you inspire me". That drives me, and I thank everyone who has ever said that to me. You have inspired ME to keep going, to keep up the hard (hard!) work, and to keep moving forward.
The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up in another quite different, and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found? ~J. B. Priestley

This is the 12th photo in a series of analog photos I took when I was in Berlin for a week in October this year.
All of them are taken with a Zenit TTL and the film is all Kodak Gold and Kodacolor.
More pictures will follow, chronologically, as some kind of diary, an experiment, a documentation of what it was like. Because one photo tells more of a story than a 1000 words.
The series is called Berlin'10 and I'm putting all of it in the set with the same title.

A, " ? "
When there is nothing left to feel ! nothing left to talk about ! The tear the people the hurts or the empty feeling ! are they existed because of cold ! or heat ?
Could winter be warmer than summer ? could fallen session relive leafs lives ?
Could be some fake in the truth ? and how it may be the truth if there's 1% fake ! or lies. is there some hurts ?: ) could you ever cross the river when it running 100 km per hour could you face your fears ? could you step bravely and say ! for who's bigger, stronger and harder that this is WRONG.
Probable you'll do ! but most of us won't ! they won't face their fears won't say their own words won't express the right things and won't think about others
Who will scarify his life for the others and pay for their smiles ? who will give his
Hand for a friend in the moment that he bleeding and maybe he is breathing his last breath. Could be some one of those here can do what the others couldn't ?
Could I do ?????

They tell me to use my head.
I should've used my heart.
We sit in cars, in rowdy living rooms, and weave our stories like awkward webs, and laugh, giggle at the stupidity of it, at the fumbling mistakes and successes.
I invariably get a sick, secret ache for your face and your awkward confidence and the way you drew me in like one magnet to another. I hold this ache close like a dirty secret, like clutching a freshly broken arm close to the body, to protect it from those small bumps, the brushes that set your teeth grinding.
But I also remember the bullshit. And then the shrouds I've woven around you, that blur your form, that stretch it and mold it, they fray and dissolve, and I can see you as you are. So I do my best to banish that bitter ache.
And if a little shred of it remains, like dust in the corners, who could blame me if I pretended not to see it?
.
This shoot was so. windy. The one in the comments that's tipped is that way because my tripod blew over mid-photo. Gah.
My camera was okay though, thankfully, and I managed to weight it down with my camera bag and take a few more pictures before I got too cold.
