I was on a quest the last 2 days, in search of finding out who Sister Gwen Shaw was. When I shared with you that I sent her a letter in 1997 per John Rowe's (he has been with the Lord for many year now) guidance I figured I better see who I sent this letter to. That makes sense to you right? I found a video that was just under 2 hours in length. It is her narrating/sharing about her life story. I viewed it on Saturday 2/27/2021 and then again on Sunday 2/28/2021. She definitely has a rich history in her life. Apparently she was married a first time and birthed 3 boys. She does not speak of that marriage per say in her story. She does meet her second husband and she shares how he traveled with her in ministry. I did a further search and found out he went to be with the Lord prior to her homegoing. Amazing ministry took place in this woman's life prior to her 2nd marriage and even so in that marriage and still continued on after his homegoing. Her 2nd husband had a tender heart in the few times I was able to see film footage shared on this testimony video/film.
I see now why John suggested I share some of my writings with her, is it possible he saw an end time Handmaiden in me? As I watched and listened to what an end time handmaiden description was I thought to myself, that sounds a lot like my life years ago and currently, except the travel to minister in nations. Something stirred inside of me when she spoke of the 21 day fast the women would go on just before being prayed over by Sister Shaw to be one of the handmaidens I beleive it was to seek wisdom. I am sure she already achieved the marker of 10,000 women she saw in her vision to become end time handmaidens what do you think?
I am being reminded now of something I used to pray for a long time years ago. The Lord placed upon my heart to pray for the continents of Africa, Asia & South America. Back then when a missionary or someone connected to one of these continents would come to church and share I would place an offering in the collection for their ministry. I was not physically on the land of these 3 continents but the person that was I placed the seed offering into their hands. If I am not mistaken I made a banner once that incorporated the 3 continents on the banner. I remember I had to get a drawing of what the 3 continents looked like and then had to trace it onto the material I was using for the banner. Isn't that interesting how Holy Spirit brings little bits and pieces to your memory for the composing of this blog. That always amazes me, it truly does. I made that particular banner for the kids ministry at the church I attended. I had to also figure out how to re-create the insignia the children's ministry used as part of their ministry. I had to be creative in the creating of this simple banner. I think Holy Spirit used this banner project not for the church so much, as for me to spend time with Him as we created together. If not mistaken I found out years later that it was placed in a closet for storage at some point in time. It does not matter to me because the memories of creating and following Holy Spirit obedience in my life far outweighed how the banner was or was not used.
It was in this season of my life, that in prayer I had an open vision in which I saw a teen aged African (because this took place in Africa) girl running on a dirt road with no shoes on her feet with her arms outstretched to meet me. She had the biggest smile on her face as she was running towards me. That was the open vision I had during the day in my bedroom. It took place right before my country French, oak etagere wardrobe.
Yesterday I was going walking and I was normally going to go straight ahead until I got the Holy Spirit nudge to turn left and walk the circumference property of a local school. As I turned left on this cloud filled day I saw a peek of a sunshine burst. I walked the property and as I was about to turn right as I was heading in that direction at the end of walking at the school another shot of sunshine comes forth again. Yesterdays mission was to sing a song Holy Spirit gave to me as I walked. I just kept singing this simple phrase given to me over and over again :"The King of Glory, glory, glory Prince of Peace. The King of Glory, glory, glory Prince of Peace." I kept singing it until I arrived back where my car was parked so I could then jot down the words on a piece of paper so as to not let this experience be a fleeting memory but captured to share with you.
As I was going through older journals the last 2 days I discovered a letter I sent to a friends relative. In this letter I am apparently giving to her my rosary from Lourdes, France. I found it quite interesting that in the letter I am sharing how I would pray that rosary and give instruction to this woman who was probably not even Catholic. In the letter I am letting her know that the Lord is having me move in a different direction in my life and not to use tools to pray but use praying in tongues to pray then. I do beleive that may have been the last of me praying with a rosary in my life. Maybe I will share that letter with you sometime. The rough draft letter was dated in my journal 11/2/1997. This is how I worded it in the letter: "The Lord is weaning me from tangible tools to pray with-for He's calling me into a new season of prayer-as He calls upon me at night or wherever I am during the day-He asks of me to pray in tongues. It is a bit different for me but I trust in the Lord. Amen. Hallelujah."
