Daily Doodles- Day 44- 29/05/24

Had to once again purge my blog from things not of God. Backsliding leaves you with a lot of work 😓

I originally made this blog to have a space to post my 'for fun' art and to share my writing, but I ended up falling right back into the things that I had given up on this journey to be closer to God.

Temptation is not a sin, but there's a reason why the Lord's Prayer says 'And lead us not into temptation' It's VERY easy to fall back into sin.

I contemplated just leaving Tumblr again, but I've decided that I'll limit my interaction with it instead. I'll only come here to post and I've deleted the app from my phone for a little bit.

I did NOT delete Instagram and Facebook to free myself, just to get trapped by ANOTHER social app!

You don't need anyone's approval for the stories you write and the art you create. But it's also absolutely valid to want some approval from your audience. Kudos and likes don't determine your creation's worth. But it just feels amazing to receive them.

Busted out an old OC! Her name is Rowena and she was a witch, but I no longer create and write stories where the protagonists deal with the occult, so she's now a regular-smegular human being and really loves insects! 🦋🕷️🐜🦗🪲🦟🪳🪰🐝🐞🐛🪱

Bitch That Is NOT A Deer

I love it when we turn Danny into animals because some weird reason or another, has anyone else done deer yet?

_______

"AAAHHHHHHH!"

A scream reverberated through the cave walls below the manor. A battle of the ages taking place for anyone brave enough to witness it.

"LET GO YOU BAMBI WANNABE, THIS IS MY CHILI DOG."

Jason managed to rip the package away from the jaws of the beast, he knew it was mistake to bring down any kind of food into the cave where the creature resided but in that moment he was thinking more with his stomach.

Demon Brat had once again found another animal, a baby deer of all things, and decided to keep it knowing fully well how to pull the strings of both Bruce and Dick into letting him keep it. The thing is Jason always got a weird vibe from it, almost like some part of him was trying to warn him that this was no normal fawn and living with it proved that.

After being brought to the cave it refused to leave, claiming the environment down here as it's own. They've all tried to move it but it always found its way back down here so they just gave up and created a space for it. Another weird thing about it is it's cry. It does not sound like a normal fawn but instead had the echoing tone of a human baby but appearently only Jason could hear it, the others all said it sounded like a normal animal but he gets the feeling Damian is fucking with him, it doesn't help that Duke is also suspicious of the 'deer'.

But the last reason that really sold him on it not being a normal deer was the fact that it. Ate. EVERYTHING!

No food was safe with the deer around, if you were to put something down it would 100% without fail find its way into the maw of the ravenous creature. This ranged from simple pieces of candy to an entire rotisserie chicken (bones included), it even managed to drink his entire smoothie that had a lid covering it. Everyone tells him that there's no way it could drink through the straw because its mouth wasn't shaped to do so but he knows it did goddamnit.

Now it was infront of him vocalizing its discontent for Jason not sharing his food with a weird ass whine from its mouth.

"No! This is people food, you are a 'deer', ACT LIKE IT!"

The deer stopped its whining.

looked Jason dead in the eyes.

And stood up...

"Ah hell naw, DAMIAN! COME GET YOUR DAMN DEER!"

I had a conversation with a “Christian” and it went rather horribly. They called immigrants “shits” and terrorists. All immigrants. They claimed immigrants were the reason for Christian persecution, and that God wants us to lift the sword and kill those who persecute us. They proudly boasted of how much they loved God while in the same breath wanting to kill in His name. The lack of love and compassion was unnerving to say the least.

Friends, please remember that those who live by the sword shall die by it. Not once when the apostles faced persecution did they slaughter their persecutors. Rather, they went to their deaths proudly bearing the name of Christ- and this caused MANY more to be saved in His holy name. When the world sees you act in violence, they only see worldlings ready to kill in the name of Jesus. But when they see us love our enemies, pray for our persecutors, and stand unafraid of who can take this life from us- that is what makes people of the world come to Christ.

If your answer to persecution is to return violence for violence, you are standing against Christ, not with Him. Those who seek to save their lives here will lose them. But those who lose their lives for the sake of the gospel shall gain them.

The stuff I bought at the first con!

These cute earrings and necklace! I quite like this seller (cherry picked.tt on Instagram) The frying pan earrings are my favorite!

It was my mum's birthday the day of the con and we saw these beautiful turtle earrings that are exactly her style.

There were a couple of stationery booths and I got the transparent sticky notes that I see all over the stationery community. I got these two colours because they were the most pastel and I like the pastels

At the next booth, I got this cute notebook that I use for work...

And these cool pens!

The first is one of those multicoloured pens. It has ten colours! I think the character on top is called Kuromi.

The seconds is a covid vaccine pen! 🤣 I despise that 'vaccine' but this pen is too cute! It's not just a pen though. On the other side has a sort of squiggly stamp and at the bottom of the vaccine part has a covid virus stamp! I found these things out while fooling around with it.

The third is just aesthetically cute. It's, minimalist, pastel pink and has this cute removable heart charm!

I bought some stuff at the other con and I'll post that once I transfer all the pics to my computer.

Silly, silly funny looking creature masquerading as a dog that @wetdogblog posted.

Her name is Primrose and I decided to draw her as realistically as I could. Loved drawing her fur! So fluffy and curly!

one thing about biblical womanhood posts that I’ve noticed is that when it’s talked about, they still strive to emphasize the aspects that were remarkable situations— they leave a faint taste of feminism in my mouth because they focus on Deborah, the woman raised up to lead because the men wouldn’t; they focus on Jael, the woman who kills a man with a tent spike; a woman dropping a stone, Rahab smuggling Israelites and defying authorities—

And all of these are raised up and praised as the Biblical woman with just a hint of look!! We’re strong!! We’re in the thick of it!! We’re not submissive doormats!!

In one sense, this is true. These are great, godly women. They are our examples.

But in all our striving to remind people of biblical women’s strength, we cannot forget who else are our examples.

We cannot forget Ruth. Ruth who humbled herself and remains loyal with Naomi, submitting herself to God and trusting in His provision. Ruth who lays herself at Boaz’s feet and who sacrifices possibly being a widow soon again for the sake of Naomi’s care and God’s provision.

Martha— one who serves and who desires to serve

Mary— one who sits at Christ’s feet to learn and desires to hear the words of her Lord

Lydia— who insisted on hosting and serving the Lord’s messengers; who would be possibly sacrificing her wealth being a part of the church in Philippi and serving the church

Mary— Jesus’ mother who submitted herself to God’s will, submitted herself to the scorn of her peers, who trusted the Lord to fulfill His promises and whose soul was pierced with a sword

The strength of godly wives who submit though their flesh and curse is contrary— the strength of women who order their homes, are humble, are helpers, are mothers, are servers, are menders, are teachers, are caregivers, are sellers and makers, are students of our Lord.

Don’t confuse gentleness for weakness; nor tenderness for a lack of strength.

Women are strong.

And it’s not because of tent spikes.
