cleaning for christmas day

Since I was not only busy with work and other things lately, but also sick, I am way behind on cleaning. So I've been cleaning today, Christmas Eve Day. I mopped some of the floors, cleaned off the table and placed our lovely special Christmas dishes.  I posted the long video of the Christmas story that we wrote called The Christmas Guest and I also posted a short. The short is called How to break the ice with a Stranger. We have so many other things lined up. We're still working on the movie, A Passion for Jesus. Hopefully today or at least very soon we can record the one scene we need for that, and then I can start putting it together. I would really like to do it these two days that we're off, but I guess we'll have to see. Then I also have an audio story that I want us to do called Trapped in Darkness, which will be shining out light on what a lot of women go through when they are desperate for someone to love them, they sometimes put themselves in situations where ...

instagram problems

I ran into an issue on Instagram. I've been having problems uploading to my Tamara Chaos account. I am so sick of social media giving me problems. If they don't want me to upload a lot of AI pictures then they should state that somewhere. So I deleted the AI pictures and clear up my cache and rebooted my phone and so after a while I will see it if that helped. I need to take a break and not post for a while and that way it should reset. Sometimes I like social media, but sometimes these apps are just ridiculous. I might try to go back to the old days. I can't even type on these stupid phones because I tried to use the wipe and it just doesn't do it and I think it's because I want to be quick and so I have to be slow if I'm going to use swipe or something else. So I'm using voice to text. I'm sitting here on the couch because I have a cold. It's just a small cold so I assume it will clear up pretty good soon. It's the same if I try to write with a...

happy thursday

Hello everyone. It's been a while since I posted. I've been a little busy with the other social medias that I know you all know I do not like, but they are a necessary evil I guess. At least I can turn the evil into good by posting scriptures and whatnot.. Maybe now I can take a little break and just focus on my blog. It is 8:16 a.m. on December 12th, 2024. I'm waiting a bit then I will I drink my tea and then I will go up and finish editing my latest podcast. Sometimes I watch people on YouTube make videos that are like a TV show and I wish I could do that, but I guess I need to focus on what I can do. I have done things similar to that though so I can be thankful and proud of that. I guess right now I'm more focused on doing ministry videos and delivering messages like a minister. Hopefully I can keep fine tuning that. I think one thing that is hard is that you know we get the lights all set up and everything looks great and then we have to take the lights away and pu...

a simplified social life

 There are times where I go through and delete or deactivate pages or whatnot from FB to simplify my online presence, but then I get an idea about something and I start new things. I have done, that, but, now have gone back to simple.  I am now Minister Elizabeth, as my professional presence, and the other is still Tamara Chaos, for fun and whatnot. I do believe that the time is right for this. And since I have eliminated the others, it should not get too overwhelming.  When I record my new podcast, I will post short clips to my Minister Elizabeth Instagram account.  Overall, yes, I still hate social media, but with the increasing availability of Ai and the more my passwords work, then that is when I do like it.  I do wonder though, what my life would be like if I did not have social media. I could try a vacation from it, since I really will only be posting Bible stuff now. You know, like on my Tamara Chaos page, no one really interacts with the Bible stuff, but...

missouri and minnesota trip

Nov. 21st through Dec. 2nd, we took a trip to Missouri and Minnesota. Missouri to visit Phil's daughter and Minnesota to visit my parents. We had a very nice time.  My dad's church, Moravian, celebrated 150 years and so they had a lovely service with many participants and dinner after, however, Phil and I met up with friends in Rochester for dinner. We met at Pasquale's Pizza place. My mom's church, Methodist, had a lovely Christmas themed service. I posted pictures and videos on YouTube and Instagram.  Berea Moravian Church celebrates 150 years of service I did start a new YouTube channel, and so I might start a new blog as well. I'll set it up on the computer because it's easier. To keep me from getting overwhelmed, I'll probably stop posting to other sites and just let them fester, unless I suddenly get an opportunity and want to post there. That reminds me that I wanted to delete my Avakin Life Fashion Contests blog. The name of the new YouTube channel i...

separating kids from adults who break the law

People complain because Trump separated kids from their parents when they were caught entering our country illegally. You know when people break the law and they go to prison, their kids are not with them. That's why we have so many people who have their kids in foster care. Are we supposed to allow the kids to be in jail with the parents? The jails that are already too full as it is? That's why I think marijuana should be legal because we have so many people in prison for marijuana, that we're running out of space for the people that really need to be in jail. People who are dangerous. People who are killing other people. People who are demented. I do understand why illegals are coming to our country. I do feel for them because their country is so dangerous right now. So, I do think that they need to be vetted though and to do that their kids have to be separated. People are just trying to find little things to nitpick because they don't like Trump. Trump is our presid...

trump wins the presidential race in 2024

Via CBS News website:  "I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president," Trump said at his election headquarters in Florida. "And every citizen, I will fight for you, for your family and for your future. Every single day, I will be fighting for you with every breath in my body."  "At 78, Trump will be the oldest president ever to assume office. " Americans all across the United States of America witnessed a new turn in the political race this year. It was a tight race, but Trump took the lead and ran with it. More people early voted for Harris, but on election day, more voters voted for Trump. He's the first Republican to win the popular vote as well as electoral vote.  Election Results Trump will now be the 47th president of the United States of America.  Hello Friends: When we are navigating through this world, it can be difficult if we don't get any encouragement from ...

leaving lordsbook.com is complete/photos-tricks117

So I went to Lordsbook.com on my PC and there in settings was the setting that I was told and where I could delete my account. Why they don't have that on the mobile app I don't know- it might be something that they want to consider in the future.. One thing I did like about this platform is that at the top of my timeline was a scripture, but what I didn't like is that there was no reference to where the scripture was found. There was also one spelling mistake that was never changed even though I pointed it out. This is not a big deal I'm just saying things that I didn't like about it. What I did really like is that the reactions had like prayer hands and a Bible stuff like that so that was cool, but just like every other platform people only use those things if at all and don't use any words. I suppose it would be handy in the future for social media platforms to have in the comment section different sentences, rather than emojis that people who are hurried can...

social media is so annoying/going to delete my account with Lords Book

So a while ago I signed up for a social media site called Lord's Book. I always try these different social media sites to see what they're like, but it always ends up to be the same. Now the problem I'm having is that it allowed me out and I can't log in - it claims that my password is incorrect, but I know it's correct because it's the only password I've used so far and I had it automatically stored. It's just annoying. They are supposed to send me a code so that I can log in and change my password but I have yet to receive this code even though it's been over 15 minutes now. So as soon as I can get in I'm going to delete my account. I have already emailed them my lament and that they can delete my account. This social media isn't much different than all the others where people don't really have time for it and so they don't really interact. I think a lot of it has to do with my content - they're just not interested in it. They w...

thelordsbook.com is going to be deleted soon

I have contacted Lord's book.com once again to have them delete my account because I could not find it in settings after I was finally able to log in after receiving the code- I received the code that I requested 24 hours before and the one I requested now at the same time.. I'm not interested in this headache. I don't get on social media to deal with this crap. So while it was a nice idea it's the same as others no response from people who are following me. What's strange is that most of the people that were following me were men and they did not even interact with me at all. I don't understand how people can just look and not respond to Bible posts. So that's okay I tried social media and it is not for me. So while I do enjoy posting pictures on Instagram, I will eventually have to figure out something else. I suppose it's possible that I end up paying for storage and then I can post pictures on here.  Anyway still and I lead worship today. Part of me ...

democrats

The Democrats want to control every state. They don't think it should be up the states to allow or disallow abortion.  Walz can't keep his words straight. First he said it's up to women, then he complains that Trump wanted each state to decide. 

2024 election-harris vs. trump

1. Defund police 2. Remove Resource Officers from schools 3. Make Abortion legal again, even up to 9 months 4. Allow illegals to come across the border without prejudice  5. Make Healthcare Affordable for all 6. Reduce the cost of prescriptions 7. Remove FDA 8. Allow minors to change their gender 9. Hasn't changed economy since Trump's presidency, yet complains about the economy under Trump, which, by the way, was better than now.  10. Many wars under Biden Administration, yet nothing has been done about it. 11. Can't pick a stance, flip flops and pretends to be someone she isn't. 12. Free housing, free healthcare, basically, socialism.  13. She wants to give everybody $25,000 to buy a new house. Does she realize that that means that realtors will charge more for the selling the house? Buyers will sell their house for more? When we rely too much on the government, we become their slave. And this is not a free $25,000 it will be considered income and people will have to ...

happy wednesday everyone_build each other up_new song coming out

Image
Ah, we have reached the middle of the week again. It is 7 am and I have already finished my Bible reading for this morning. The verse of the day in the upper room publication is 1 Thessalonians 5:11: " encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. " The article talks about how when the author was in college she and a group of 20 other students volunteered to go to Thailand to help teach English to local daycare centers and schools. One weekend they were hiking and they needed to cross a 4-ft deep river. It was very difficult because the current was very strong, one person even lost their footing when they tried to do it alone. So they linked arms and crossed together and even though one on each end lost their footing-because they were linked they were able to stay up. That's how we need to be. We need to lean on each other when we're going through turbulent times. As for me, I am more likely to lean on a counselor or Phil then any body ...

happy tuesday everyone_concert Sept 14th

Image
A Passion for Jesus A Passion for Jesus I'm sitting here at the kitchen table and waiting until it's time to start prayer time. I did ask if anyone had any prayers and no one answered, but I also asked very late so that's probably why they didn't answer yet. That's okay they might answer later. I also need to start practicing for the upcoming concert September 14th at Parkwood Church of God. I'm going to be singing three songs. So I'm very excited about that.  So after that then I'll go to prayer at church. Then I'll see if I'm going to go with the ladies for lunch, and then I will go to work.  I have updated my YouTube channels:  A Passion for Jesus  ,  Freedom in Christ  , and  Heart of Tamara Chaos I don't think it'll be overwhelming for me to have these different channels because once I get the movie posted on A Passion for Jesus channel, I won't need to post anything else. That channel can just stay there like a web...

changed one youtube channel into freedom in christ podcast

I've had multiple channels for years for different purposes. There are a couple that I hid and have recently unhid them for the purpose of ministry. I made both of them A Passion for Jesus, but decided that one of them should host my new podcast. I might still post to my regular channel Heart of Tamara, but it will mostly be on the other channel.  There is a channel I subscribe to called Heart4Art with Zmarie. I can't help thinking she is very upset with me because I changed my YouTube channel to Heart of Tamara. Heart of Tamara goes back years for me. It was a mission I was doing when I was on Second Life. It really testifies to the fact that I've been trying to find a way to do ministry since 2007. I keep trying different things that really fit in with the times. It is also so much easier to type Heart of Tamara because my keyboard will automatically fill it in, with Tamara Chaos, it would never bring up the word chaos. But you know, ever since I started the series called...

leaving mewe for good

Mewe has announced that starting October 1st, anyone who is not connected to the new platform-block chain, their account will be deleted. I have upgraded, but April Marie has not. There is nothing keeping me on that platform.  Do you have to migrate from mewe to mewe on the social web?

a beacon for showing the love of the king

Image
This is the best way to show God to people. God can't be seen right now, but humans can, therefore, we have to be beacons of God's love for him. God loves everyone and that's why he died on the cross for our sins. He didn't want his precious people to be condemned, he wanted them saved.
