Am i a P.I.G ??? smell like one, look like one, behave like one but i'm not the one! LOL

Having dealt with the “old man” for many years I think the term P.I.G. is very apt, because it so defines a creature that is totally self-centered and self-indulgent. The pig cares for no one but himself—“I want it for myself, and I want it NOW!” but always take time to look at those people ard you and think for them and not you alone. people often choose a smal but immediate reward now for themselves, at the expense of a much larger reward later. so, P.I.G in short is to avoid a small punishment now only to get a bigger punishment later.

Some incentives to maintain godliness such as physical health, professional success, or loving relationships may have giant rewards, but they do not always have a quick payoff. In contrast, the gratification produced by incentives such as drugs, alcohol, sex or food is immediate, and for that reason exert an influence on our behaviour that is completely out of proportion to reality.

I have found that at the moment of decision—to sin or not to sin—reality is bent in favor of sin. At that moment we cannot appreciate that what we are about to do is foolish, wrong or unhealthy—a perspective that would be obvious to an outsider. The closer we get to temptation the more blind we become until a total eclipse of reason and righteousness transpires. We actually believe that we are perceiving reality objectively but alas we are not, we are in the arms of sin. The problem is, once sin is sitting on your lap, it is hard to say no.

We fail because we allow ourselves to get too close to temptation, thinking we can handle it, but we get sucked in as if we had just orbited too close to a black hole. Perpetrating the sin is inevitable; escape is not even a consideration! Immediacy to the “feel-good” accelerates the process.

After the fact, the guilt and all the “How could I have been so stupid?” comments, our actions seem foolish because we are further away from that particular temptation. The physical presence of crack exerts a tremendous influence on an addict’s behavior in a way he does not—and cannot—appreciate until he is removed from the temptation. The same is true for all temptation. Will power is only as powerful as the distance between you and sin in either a physical or a spiritual sense.

this post sure take me very very long to put words through my mind.. so ALL ... pls read it for more than once so that you will also be blessed with my thoughts for the week =))

JAMES 5:20...he who turns a sinner from the error of his way
will save a soul from death and cover a great multitude of sin.

I want a boy who will hold my hand in line at the mall & make all the other girls jealous.
I want somone who would grab me by my waist at random times.
Someone who is more goofy than romantic.
A boy who would throw stuffed animals at me when i'm acting dumb.
i'm not the one you would want to mess around with - you might end up crying.
and not a "flowers girl" if you know...
He would silence me with his lips on mine when i'm throwing tantrums.
A guy who would make fun of me just to hear my laugh.
He'd play with my hair all the time & suprise me with little things.
Somone who i could share my lollipops with & lay on a blanket with to count the stars.
more of a mummy boy than bad boy! would like him to be close to his mum then those who thinks are too-cool-for-school.
i got to 'get' him and he got to 'get' me.
But mostly, someonewho will be my best friend & would never break my heart.
He'd just always make me SMILE.
A boy, like no other & he's special.
