Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Matt. 4  Blessed [are] they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
5  Blessed [are] the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

Verse 4 we are told we are blessed if we mourn.  We think of ourselves being blessed if we have money in the bank and all is going well..That is only temprary blessing.  To mourn is to be broken.  God can use a broken vessel..a broken a contrite spirit God will not to deny.  God recieves Godly sorrow.. the promise is we shall be comforted.  There is nothing that can confort like the Holy Spirit.

Bless are the meek..meekness is an unasuming character in which there is an absence of pride.  Meek stresses a mildness, patience disposition which it not easily angered.  Meekness is not super sensitive, or easy hurt or offended.  A meek person is someone that everything isn't about you.  Promise you will inherit the earth.  I want to inherit heaven not this old cruel world.
But to inherit the earth with meeks means you are not overcome with the things of the world..but you are an overcomer in Christ Jesus..
