10/21/96

As I woke up this day the Lord called me to be open to Him this day. With this prompting I read Chapter 2 of Genesis (since I finished the New Testament I'm now starting with the beginning of the Bible.)

"Time flies by so quickly now My children in Christ. Make the most of your lives here upon the earth for it is in your kind and generous actions and deeds that you are preparing for the kingdom of heaven. How many of you have shed all the excess in your lives? The things and toys that are not needed to survive this lifetime? Give from your open hearts to others in need around you. For when your life is completed upon the earth all that is of worldliness shall not matter...I'm being shown a big and full tree. A very strong wind comes and breaks off many of the branches and the leaves are no longer upon this tree. It is all sucked up into a funnel cloud-gone-vanished-before your eyes.
This My ever blessed children in Christ is what I speak of, Me being Christ Jesus the saviour of this time and the time of eternal happiness. You cannot and will not take these things that you've collected upon the earth they will stay behind and eventually break down and no longer be of any value or worth.
Waste not your efforts and time gathering things of pleasure but gather things of worth. A smile you share with one that is bewildered or lost on their spiritual journey; the hug that shows and tells another they are loved and cared for; the peace that fills your being when you are in My presence as you read scripture and then go forth and share the knowledge from the bible. These My children these are the things I speak of that will bring you eternal happiness and peace. Go forth now and spread the good news 'I am the bread of life and all who eat of Me shall live forever.' Sing praises always to God the Father."

Please note that back when this was written, as I would be prompted by the Holy Spirit I would share some of my writings with a radio station. This particular one was read on the air on 10/24/96 WMIH, back then it was Sr. Juanita Shealey's radio program. Such a woman of God is she and how she ministered to the Catholic (and non Catholic) listening radio audience. She truly has a heart for people and how she would minister to the hurting people that would call into her program. What a blessing she is to the body of Christ, Lord I ask you this very day to continue to bless her in a mighty way if she still walks the earth. If she is in heaven with You I look forward to having long conversations with her about what she accomplished for You with her time on earth one day when we meet in heaven. Amen.
