When I Share With You Please Do Not Think This Is Arrogant Of Me. I Am An Excellent Student.

I just completed reading the 2 books and the workbook/study guide I was working on. When there's something that speaks to my heart and Holy Spirit wants me to partake in, it is as if I am driven to complete the task at hand. I love when I am on adventures like that. I read and try to follow in the workbook with the corresponding chapter I am working on. I do not like so much wimpy, bare bones type of workbooks. I like workbooks that have several questions for the student to work on.

This particular workbook does not have the correct answer guide listed in the back somewhere to allow me to double check to see if I answered the questions correctly. So, with that assignment complete I felt led to stop at a Christian bookstore my hairdresser suggested to me. She thought I would like it there. The owner is a sweet lady, I think she said she was 80 years old. This is not a bookstore in which the books, music, etc. is at discounted pricing and they do not accept credit/debit cards but do accept the method of payment via cash or check.

I saw authors of books in which I attended a church, saw them or I could recommend certain books I had read as excellent. I selected a book by Dr. Bob because he went to church where we both attended back in Ohio, and he knows about nutrition. I then saw a study guide that struck my attention by Kenneth E. Hagin. When talking/sharing she mentioned how she used to listen to him on the radio years ago and how she would get so much out of his 15-minute radio programs. I replied how I used to also listen to him on the radio, small world isn't it. She shared with me how the Faith Library Publications Study Guide Course Series book I selected, that you could use it to teach a class/bible study. Imagine that. It is a book format with smaller font size print with Questions for Study at the end of each chapter. My kind of book that I like. The best part of all is there is a Sinner's Prayer, and it even has a section to sign & date it if you said the prayer. I sometimes wonder why churches do not have altar calls sometime during the service to offer salvation to the people through Jesus. I was always taught back in Ohio that anytime the church was gathering there should be an altar call before the service is dismissed. You just don't ever want to miss the opportunity to extend the altar call because we really do not know the person's life or if the church service, they attended may have been a cry for help from them. What if they came seeking God and in their time of distress no one offered the plan of salvation, and they then walk away without the altar call being extended to them. Pretty serious stuff when you look at it in that light do you agree.

Church, go back to offering salvation altar calls on a regular basis. And what is that all about only offering communion maybe monthly or quarterly, get the point! Jesus shed His blood for us to live with Him in heaven for all eternity if you invited Him into your heart. So, the church lessens the value of that shed blood of Jesus and only partake in communion on a rotation type of schedule. I can say this that when I was Catholic, they always offered communion. I think there was a season in my life as a practicing Catholic that I attended daily mass and received communion. The book is titled, "The Holy  Spirit And His Gifts."

As I was checking out, I felt Holy Spirit nudge me to bring forth a word of encouragement to her. I silenced myself and stepped aside with my thoughts to let Holy Spirit flow through me. He was ever so faithful as the words came forth. I let her know if anything was not for her or she did not agree with it to let it fall to the ground. She replied that she received it all. As a confirmation of something spoken forth, she brought out some papers and right then and there I asked if I could lay my hand on them and pray in faith, and she agreed with my request. I stepped into faith and prayed and released blessing. Now, that is what I call a divine appointment, do you agree. If I would have never had the time of fellowship when at the hairdresser the other day, the conversation would have never brought up the bookstore and I probably would have not gone there. Holy Spirit is always on the move you just have to let Him capture your attention and then you have to be willing and obedient to follow through.

I love the adventures Holy Spirit goes on with me. When I came home, I found a thank you note waiting for me from a neighbor thanking me for baking. See, Holy Spirit has you where He wants you to be to bless those around you. How can He even trust you with any type of ministry if you cannot and do not reach out with the love and kindness of Jesus you share with them, your neighbors. I did deliver some dinner to a neighbor this evening and collected my container from the soup I left with them the last time. I will eventually get to my other neighbor's home to collect up the soup container I left for them a few days ago. 

When I share with you, I do not do it in a boastful manner. I share with the hope you will extend kindness to your neighbors and take Jesus with you wherever you go. I do not even share all with you because some things are left for me to tuck within my heart. Holy Spirit knows when He sends me and it is my joy to do so at His beckon. He will then somewhere in time inevitably remind me of some of those acts of kindness. Start on your journey with Holy Spirit so you can then share your adventures with others to encourage them to share the love of Jesus with others.

Today, 1/28/2024 Has Been A Day Of Reflection & Peace & Quiet.

I am going to share with you videos that ministered to me very much so today. Sometime, I did find the time to prep my stuffed peppers, peel and chop the potatoes and fresh garlic clove to make the mashed potatoes. All I have to do is actually cook them later on. I have learned throughout the years that I prefer making the stuffed peppers on top of the stove as opposed to baking them in the oven. 

Each video is unique, but all ministered to me and spoke to my heart. May they bless you abundantly also. I watched livestream over the weekend of a conference that is taking place. Last night I was just too overloaded to watch the night conference and I watched it today. I think with refreshing I received it much better today than watching when a bit tired if that makes sense to you.

My day started off with watching my hometown church livestream. After that I went into SonLife Broadcasting so it had already started. I came in to viewing right at the right time today. There was a move of Holy Spirit. I hope the replay video captures this portion because it is most endearing. At the end the one grandson's children come out to greet their great grandparents. Even if Jimmy Swaggart is in his chair singing, they will come and hug him. Their youngest daughter just loves to climb up onto their great grandmother's lap and she holds her, and this child looks so content each time I see her resting in the arms of Frances Swaggart. That is what ministry and family life is all about do you agree.

How Many People Can Say They Have A Lovely Time Of Sharing When They Go To Get Their Hair Done. I Can.

I am finding out my hairdresser and I have more things in common than not each visit I make.  See, a good hairdresser jots down notes for their client and they remember things that work and don't work. They have their ears attuned to listening to your thoughts and concerns also. I learn something each time I go there. So, when I suggested 2 haircuts ago a method to try when applying hair color and come to find out at my most recent visit that what we did by my suggestion in reality counter defeated what I thought it was going to accomplish. What I like is she explains the scientific side of things in her explanation and not just a superficial blanket explanation. I learned to yield to her expert knowledge and experience and together we came up with a gameplan yesterday and it worked out. This hairdresser/stylist also keeps up on the latest hair techniques. When my daughter was visiting, I liked her hair color and she told me it was the latest in hair color trending, called cowboy red. She got the formulation from her hairdresser and sent it to me. So, I inquire of my hairdresser, and she knew about this trending and even the younger in age gals are dying their hair this color. So, when I mentioned it, she assured me I was already wearing cowboy copper Imagine that. I also was in search of a nail polish color like emerald green, something you would wear on St. Patrick's Day and that was my other's favorite color, she knew where to direct me to find it.

I felt led to get up yesterday morning and bake chocolate/chocolate chip scones and bring some to them along with a few bags of snack type of items. Being in this industry I am sure one does not always have time to go out on your lunch break, so I brought some things to them to enjoy.  Along with a cookbook I recently got but I am not really that interested in cooking from it but my hairdresser loves to cook and is a wonderful cook, so I asked her if she wanted it. I brought along the Dr. Ron Webb book/workbook I was planning on reading while hair color was processing but that never happened, do you know why. We both sat down during that time and had a conversation, and it was a lovely conversation at that. Well, we both now have a common connector between us. My mom died and went to be with Jesus 1/14/2023 and she just experienced this in her life 3 days later this year from my mother's anniversary. I shared with her things my mother went through at the near end of her life and even what took place in her final breaths of life as she was going through this tender time in her life. This is not a happy, happy type bond one has with someone, but it is an odd bond that hopefully can cause one to heal. I think I needed that chat to chat more than I thought in my very life yesterday and I thanked her for it. 

She has a wealth of knowledge and I always ask her about things to go and visit locally. Yesterday we were on the subject of how I stumbled upon a visit to the University of the South. Such a lovely campus. She shared with me about the Cross to go and visit. Then she told me about a natural stone bridge in the area. A library and we even touched on the subject of monks in that area also. I shared with her how I went on a retreat before with the Monks of the Genesse Abbey or something to that effect title. It was in Genesse, NY. I drove my midnight blue colored Dodge Stealth to that retreat and stopped at a lovely mall heading back home and did a little bit of shopping @ an anchor type of retail store while there.

I asked her about the unclaimed luggage store in AL and she has been there and shared with me about the finds she found when there. They even have shopping carts when you go there. I told her how the menu @ Miss Mary Bobo's in Lynchburg did not have a very appealing menu when my son was visiting and how we passed up making reservations there that day and opted to go tour The Hermitage instead. We talked about baking and why there are no good bakeries since I left Ohio. That was a simple answer that in the south if you wanted a pie or cake, you just asked your grandmother or mother to bake it and they did so there really was no need for a bakery per say. I shared with her about the lovely European type of bakeries we have in Ohio and about the Westside Market also. From that she showed me some recent birthday cakes she made for people and how she is looking for a lemon type of recipe to make for an upcoming birthday she wants to bake for. I shared how I often made the Philadelphia Cream Cheese cheesecake for my mom that loved lemon desserts. I even shared how I would switch out limes for lemons in the recipe. Let me share that with you all in case you want to bring a little sunshine to your day. May I suggest not only baking this but then sharing it with others. Spread that sunshine around okay. If you have Jesus in your heart the son of God is in your life, so take that Sonshine and be sunshine in another's life. Those are my words of wisdom for today. My plan is to make stuffed peppers with red, yellow and orange peppers today to share with a neighbor along with homemade mashed potatoes and what about steamed green beans or carrots too. What do you think? I actually did some prep work for making them yesterday. I cleaned, removed the seeds and cut in half lengthwise the peppers, parboiled the rice for the beef filling and chopped onions and got a bit of fresh parsley from my herb garden that has made it through the snowstorm, so I can chop it up and add to the meat filling.

You can tell if a recipe is a tried and true recipe by the condition of the recipe. Obviously by the condition of this recipe page it has been made over and over again. Do you agree.

PBS Why Do You Always Have To Bring Smut Into Your Programming. People Don't Want That Kind Of Programming.

PBS television broadcasting station I give you a chance each year for the last few years, you let me down why is that. There are some really descent programs on PBS generally speaking but then they just have to go there and introduce "smut" infiltrated programs. People in general do not want to see smut on a public station formatting, that should be left out.  Whatever happened to the days of wholesome program shows. You could always count on PBS to deliver family programing for the old-fashioned yet true definition of what a family is ... father, mother, children, grandchildren, grandparents. Get the picture!!!

Even some programs may have a little bit of a controversial type of situation, but they are handled in good taste and not blatantly put out there for all to see the demise of morals in the USA and even BBC type of programs. Stick to wholesome family viewing and just maybe you wouldn't have to have fundraisers to keep certain programming on the air, did you ever think of that as a marketing ploy.

See, there is beautiful programming on PBS like their featured national holiday programming. Then there are even local programs to show you different things to do in the local area. That is how I sometimes get an idea to visit somewhere because I saw it on the local programming featuring local places and fun things to adventure in the area. You have great travel programs and even some documentaries. The shows with Lucy as the hostess those adventures into history. Then you have some really good mini-series also. I want to acknowledge the good public broadcasting can do amidst the reprimand of smut programming. Some of the mystery programming is good but not the ones that are graphic in nature though.

You know if I can be honest with you, I would consider donating to the local PBS but not since you find ways to bring smut into the programming. I remember way back when that my father would donate, and I know that because he probably received a subscription to Highlight Childrens magazine and my child was a recipient to that subscription. That was back when public broadcasting was more wholesome in nature, and I know the American people would not have tolerated blatant smut in programming. Whatever happened to the morals of the American people, teach morals to your children by simply living a lifestyle of morality in your very life and home. Very simple but you have to want to do that don't you.

I am suggesting to not even get tempted to watch their latest series, which makes you think it is a sort of spin off of a popular movie from years ago and it is farthest from that. Do not get fooled at their marketing hook to try and draw you in okay. It starts out okay seemingly but then things they portray and even smut filled scenes of controversy begin to appear. The show goes back to years ago time era, and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt if it was an actual television show the audience would be appalled and no way would that type of smut have been on the air let alone allowed to even be filmed let alone shown in that era. So, if that is the case then why are they portraying this type of filming today to make the appearance this is what was played in the years it is being portrayed in?

Do you think PBS that people are dumb or numb to this sly way of introducing controversial subject matter blatantly before their very viewing eyes? I felt led to repent for even allowing my eyes to see this shocking sort of stuff on public broadcasting and asked Holy Spirit to cleanse both my natural and spiritual eyes from that smut and I would not watch it ever again.

May I suggest PBS that wholesome television done in impeccable taste will always be the desire of the general population of American citizens. Please stop catering to the minimal percentage of people that hunger and thirst for smut filled programs.

People Will Come & Go In Your Life & Will Disappoint You. Don't Dwell On That But Find Beauty Around You.

You know I can honestly say I have been let down by people in general. That then makes me not have to categorize the groups and stick with the general category. You will find that in life you can be deceived big time by the one's closest to you and the ones you confide in and share your dreams & goals with. Do not be surprised because you are sharing your heart & ideals with them, they now have a tool to use against you if that makes sense. Be most cautious of whom you share with because those very people can deter you from sharing with the right & sincere group and not the wolves in sheep clothing trying to hoodwink you, all in the guise of being or having the appearance of being holy & a devout Christian. Yes, I said it. These are Christians out there parading around like they are the next best thing to sliced bread, so the saying goes. You would possibly expect that type of behavior from heathens and unbelievers but not from Christians right.

Use wisdom and don't fall for enemies planted around your life, clean house and sweep it clean once & for all. Pray that they get restored and even yourself find restoration for going down a path that can lead to destruction and devastation in your very life. Holy Spirit (if you allow Him to) will highlight this very kind to you. He is patient but there will come a time when He stops sending others to you to listen to the warnings because you have chosen to not receive the warnings sent to you. Quit looking for ear tickling type of words spoken into your life and get the ear ticklers out of your life so people that speak truth with loving concern can get through to you. 

It is hard to see this when walking through it. You see it clearer once you have walked it and look back. Don't wait until that time because life is but a vapor and it really is short meaning you are here one day and then the next day may not even be promised to you to wake up and see the beauty that surrounds you. Like hearing birds singing in the background because they are around you because you take the time to feed them. Hearing windchimes in the background because you like the sound they make when the wind gently or ferociously blows around you. In either circumstance you are blessed to hear them play sweet melodies if you choose to hear the music. I tend to bring in most of my wind chimes prior to wintertime but try to leave one out if possible, so as to hear if there is strong winds blowing outside. I usually pick one of my older ones that I don't so much care about if the winter winds take a toll on them.

 I am reading a fascinating book right now and following along with a workbook to go with the book. The author is Dr. Ron Webb, "Leadership From Behind The Scenes." Earlier this morning I completed 2 pertinent chapters in the book/workbook. "Staff Infection" & "The Danger Of Exposure." At the conclusion of reading the last chapter I asked Holy Spirit for scriptural guidance, and He took me to the Book of Isaiah Chapter 19. I read the entire chapter, and He reminded me that the very closing of that chapter there is restoration and I said amen to that. All hope is not lost if you find you have been betrayed by others, because, with a willing heart there can be restoration. I am being reminded of Job and look what he went through, and things were greatly restored at the end. You may not see the restoration while walking through it at the moment, but it is there, it truly is there.

I decided the other day to place bird feed/seed not just in the bird feeder but I put it on the ledges of my back porch and even on the floor so I could see the birds coming up closer to maybe capture some pictures of them. Let me share my bird feeding adventure with you if I may. Well, this morning all the bird seed is gone, I imagine I need to place more outside for them to enjoy today. Not only for them but for me being blessed seeing God's creatures (yes, even the squirrels) enjoying the seed placed for them to find nourishment.

This picture intrigued me. Do you think the male cardinal is interested in the female cardinal and she is just not giving him the time of day or maybe she is just interested in the bird seed in that direction. A thought to ponder on.

The Wave Of JUSTICE Will Prevail, May I Share My Experience With You About JUSTICE ...

It was 1/16/2024 sometime while getting ready for bed.

What set the tone for this entire evening was me watching Marty Goetz & his lovely wife, Jenny, in their live broadcast.

 For some reason Holy Spirit reminded me of the time I went to the cemetery to bring flowers to Jeff Jansen's grave. While there I heard the word "JUSTICE" a couple of times calling forth from his grave in the ground, but I heard it audible.

God does bring justice forth even after a person is in heaven if justice needs to be dealt with. I had this brief moment even though I was ready to go to bed for the night, to title a blog something like this: "Justice, Justice, Justice Can Someone Tell Me Why I Heard This Screaming Out From Jeff Jansen's Grave."  I was going to write about it & propose a ? for someone to leave a comment explaining what/why I heard that. If Holy Spirit directed me I would have got up and gone to write.

This is what happened instead ... I went to use the restroom & when I got back in bed somehow my TV was powered on to Roku where I didn't turn it on or have it on. I felt led to click on ISN live & there was Donna Rigney (donnarigney.org was her website mentioned in the program) on sharing about a tsunami coming with a wave of "justice." She kept sharing about justice coming & God will undo injustices that took place & make them right.

Was that a God ordained moment - yes it was because no one but me & Holy Spirit knew about my concern with hearing Justice cry out from the grave. Jeff Jansen will be vindicated even in his death for the injustices brought against him while he was alive.

I fell asleep & then there must have been a rolling electricity blackout around 1AM or so & I got up because it so quiet & darker than usual. I asked Holy Spirit for a scripture verse to confirm what took place with my TV turning on somehow & I watched the program about Justice. It was a short time wise blackout and I heard & read 1 Peter Chapter 2. Well, I had interrupted sleep somewhere around 1 AM and it continued throughout the night with a few dreams I had that I asked Holy Spirit to confirm something to me. He honored my request.

On 1 of those sleep interruptions, I searched to find and then listen again this time to the full program since when I tuned in, it had already started, and I came in when I hear her say Justice.

I found this video was shared 1 year ago and it only had 59 views.

Donna Rigney | The wave of Justice is coming to the World | Urgent

Notice it now has 60 views because I was the one that viewed it when it had 59 views.

Before this all took place I completed reading a very timely book for me to read by Dr. Ron Webb. It is titled: "Exposing The Enemy From Behind The Scenes." I highly recommend reading this book. When I purchased it thru a ministry it was a bundled set with another book and workbook also. Glad I purchased it and now have to read the other book titled: "Leadership From Behind The Scenes."

Donna's show on ISN I believe is called, "Nuggets of Gold."

I Am Not A Widow, Why Do You Think Holy Spirit Has Me Serving/Ministering To Widows?

The other day I felt the unction to bake oatmeal bars. Half of the recipe was with Solo brand apricot filling. I had a jar of Amish made strawberry rhubarb jam. Oh my gosh you would expect some sort of tartness in the jam from rhubarb and it was pretty sweet tasting. So, I like to improvise and doctor up recipes if need be. My solution was to take frozen blueberries and place on top of the jam for them to bake into the jam filling section and they did nicely. Why do I bake? I really do not know why maybe out of boredom and to get the creativity flowing inside of me. I know, there is usually someone Holy Spirit wants me to bless via my baking.

I had this idea drop inside of me in a brief moment. It was highlighted to me by Holy Spirit that the 3 women I tend to bake and bless with the bakery are all 3 widows. I never really correlated that before that moment. I wonder why I am called to reach out to the widows. I know we are called to reach out our hearts/hands to the widows & orphans, so I guess that is why I reside where I currently reside. To bless the widows. This is a bit unique ... I am not a big pizza fan per say, unless it was the fabulous slice or two of pizza I had while in Rome in the 1990's when I was there for a few days after my stay in Medjugorje during the Bosnian war time. I still am owed a trip to Israel because that very trip my father sent me on was supposed to be to Israel, but it got changed and I was now going go Medjugorje. I wrote about that several times before via my blog. So, I found out one of my neighbors likes pizza and I am now on a sort of quest to see which local pizza places are any good. I will order a small sized cheese pizza and we both taste test to see if we like it or not. Isn't that a bit odd, I find it to be, but I do it. See, this is not really about me and it is for some reason fulfilling the blessing in another's life. Do you know how this all came about I had a pizza dough yeast packet, and I tried out the recipe on the package and shared it with this neighbor. She liked it and said how she likes pizza, and my son was coming for a visit, so I said let's find good pizza places local and rate them. I ask for no money from this widow I just find a pizza place, order it and then share the pizza. I really do not know why pizza is the main item but for whatever reason it seems to be. I have found that most places put way too much cheese as the topping on the cheese pizza and have learned to ask for less cheese than they normally place on the pizza. Some crusts are flimsy and other crusts are crispy and that is a personal preference. One place puts oregano (yuck yuck it does not agree with me) sprinkling on top of their pizzas.

So, the other day I ordered from a place that is in another neighboring town because the gals at Ollie's Bargain Outlet suggested this pizza place. I ordered the white pizza, garlic paste with mozzarella cheese and dollops of a ricotta cheese mixture, that pizza had a crispy type of crust. I went outside of the box for that pizza, not just plain cheese pizza. If you know me at all you would know I really am not a pizza type of gal.

I have a friend that used to come and visit me when I worked at a family-owned frozen yogurt/frozen custard establishment in Dunwoody, GA. I moved and she also moved but we keep in touch still. She has been a widow since 3 years ago and now resides in an independent living/assisted living residence. We share Christian beliefs, prayer and our testimonies too. I spoke with her last evening. You know she has on one of her bureaus in the room a picture of her husband from his graduation and a picture of the two of them on their wedding day. How sweet is that. She shared a beautiful testimony with me last night. She prayed for I think it was a grandchild to have a healthy baby boy to be born one day. I believe she spoke a prophetic word that was brought forth. She shared how this baby was born and her granddaughter brought the prayed for prayer in person for her to hold this healthy baby boy in her arms, her great grandson. Yes, God answers prays spoken forth. Isn't that beautiful.

Hey ministers out there, may I suggest that there comes a time in your life to set ministry aside and it is not all about you and what you still want to do but put your family upfront and personal before you. That is what you will be judged most about when standing before God Almighty one day. Not how many places you ministered to, how many trips made with intercessors, followers of your ministry. Oh no, how you spent time with your precious family. Did you take them on family trips together or was it more important to take ministry trips with strangers in some cases it may be. Be cautious to listening to the voices speaking that are surrounding you today. Some of those voices may very well be voices speaking so that persons wishes/agenda is being fulfilled through them pushing you in directions to fulfill. You know women can be very conniving and sly when getting their own personal agendas fulfilled at the expense of another. Those very same voices just may be the ones that have been stealing/pilfering from the ministry in disguise. Men are so gullible; they really are and fall for it every time. I wonder why that is.

Another thought ... are these female voices encouraging you to do more with your family or pulling you away from your family. Please consider these things more serious because the little grandchildren are growing up with each passing day and you are missing out on precious time with them. Take the family on a big family vacation and forgo one of those grand ministry trips/visions. There will always be someone to replace the ones stealing from you, but you have to first recognize it is going on. Then action needs to take place and once that is done the ministry will be in better balance again. There's nothing more pathetic then when a ministry begs for finance money. The ministry needs to live within their means and not spend what is not there ahead of the money being there. Once again, I feel led to repeat this MEN ARE SO GULLIBLE. Stop it and use wisdom not the wagging tongues around you getting their desires met thru you. How gullible can you really be. 

Where did all of that spring forth from?  It was the 1-year anniversary of my mother going home to be with Jesus yesterday, 1/13/2024. The other day I woke from a dream in which I was in water mid-calf deep searching for pearls. Someone was teaching me how to pull out of the water good pearls, it was like I was sorting them out and somehow, they would stick to the side wall as I was finding them to then explore them inside once opened up. Holy Spirit was showing me how I am learning to be more selective with the pearls of wisdom He gives to me to not cast these pearls before swine. Very interesting, very interesting.

A few weeks ago, I began to notice lake level waters were going down and I kept thinking oh my gosh we are really in some type of drought. I shared that thought with a local old timer and they shared with me it is known as the winter pool. I probably looked with a perplexed look, and they then explained. They pull back somehow the water in the local lakes for the winter months then releases it back when boating season is around again. How silly of me to think we were in drought when all along this is what they do this time of the year. Where water is plentiful for months you will now see what it looks like when the water is pulled back. Very Interesting, very interesting.  I wonder if others notice details like I do and wonder too.

Well, on 1/15/2024 we received bunches of snow. So glad I still have my Ohio snow shovel and warm gear to wear because I wanted to see if I still remember how to shovel snow. I went out and shoveled the front walk & driveway. Well, later in the day what I shoveled is now covered over. Am I going to shovel some more, probably not. I just wanted to see if I still remembered how to shovel snow. Yes, I still do remember. Hey, were you ambitious enough today to go out and shovel snow. I am just saying. I also made homemade chicken noodle soup today using my pressure cooker. Was a great day to enjoy warm soup. I also made sure there was bird seed for the birds both in the front & backyard for them to enjoy. Saw lots of male & female cardinals enjoying the bird seed in the midst of the snow falling.

I Don't Know Why I Felt Led To Decorate For Valentine's Day. I Added More Decorations Than Ever Before. I Wonder Why?

I really don't decorate much for Valentine's Day. I usually put out the little heart wreath my daughter made many years ago as a school craft project. Throughout the years I did add more bows and jazzed up the hanger portion of the wreath. This was made with an actual wire coat hanger. So, this year I saw a heart shaped wreath filled with pink toned roses. I found valentines decorative swags to add on top of my holiday green swags outside. I love the pink/white colors in the front of greens background. I made bows with valentine's wire ribbon. For some reason this year I wanted a valentine tablecloth and found a cute circular decorative mat to place in the center of the dining room table. I also made smaller wreaths for each back porch door. Gotta decorate not only the front but the back portion of the house also. 

Today on my agenda I made split pea soup and I have rising now waiting to be baked in the oven, dill cheese bread. I want to share it with a neighbor, so they have warm and yummy food for the cold snap we are about to get in this region. I cut up and par boiled carrots and diced potato to add to the soup at the end. I also cut up ham and added that to the split pea soup. I then made out of a ciabatta roll homemade croutons to go with the soup in my air fryer. I made them before making the bread. Honestly, that would have been the easy way out to not make bread today, but I made the bread.

I find myself liking the color pink lately. I found some fresh white flowers the other day and I still needed more flowers to make the look complete. I found a beautiful shade of pink mini carnations this morning to finish my flower arrangement. I then make a small arrangement to keep on my desk, so I can see beauty during the day while I work.

Today @ 8PM eastern time will be the 1-year anniversary of my mother going to be with Jesus. Since I am writing about love and Valentine's Day what more beautiful way to share my other's eulogy, I gave at her celebration of life mass in March. See, when she went to be with Jesus her eulogy was not composed at the time. Holy Spirit gave me the main words later in that January to prepare for her mass. My sister also gave a little input as I read it to her on the way to Ohio. The greatest gift of love at all is the love Jesus shared when He chose to come to earth as a baby and then die on the cross so you will not be in hell for all eternity. The only thing is you have to choose to accept this free gift given to you from Jesus. He will not force you; you have to freely choose to accept this gift and invite Jesus into your heart.

Let me share the eulogy of Mom with you today. How sweet that would be for her to hear all the angels in heaven rejoice when one of you reading this chooses Jesus today. Isn't that beautiful. May love remain in your heart and continue to share Jesus and His precious gift with those you interact with wherever you go. I also have some witnessing tracts I like to take when I travel and leave with a note, monetary tip and sometimes sweet treats I bake when I leave a hotel. I leave them on the nightstand.

EULOGY FOR MOM 8/5/1929 – 1/14/2023

Composed Saturday, 1/21/2023 5:09AM-5:33AM

Our Mother loved all & she had no favorites. She was a mighty woman of God and walked in mighty faith in God. She knew that God was with her & He knew the time He would come & get her to be with Him in heaven for all eternity. For some reason the day of the week, Saturday, was important to her. She never waivered from this the past few weeks of her life here on earth. Just maybe Holy Spirit spoke to her that the day she would breathe her last day on earth would be a Saturday. She did that on Saturday, January 14,2023 (1/14/2023) @ 8:00PM when I looked at the clock as she released her last breath here on earth and her first in heaven.

The bible states “To be absent from the body is to be present with Christ.” If you had a relationship with our mother and would like to see her again in heaven for all eternity then there is a heartfelt action step one must choose to take while still alive on earth. Once one draws their last breath on earth there are only 2 choices one will live for all eternity. They are either heaven or hell. Jesus came to earth as a baby born through the willing heart of his mother Mary who chose God’s will be done & not her own will be done. Jesus grew and then ministered to the people. He also chose to die on the cross and 3 days later He rose from the dead and is seated at the right hand of the Father in heaven – forever interceding for us. He died so we could choose life with Him in heaven for all eternity.

The gift of salvation is a free that He gives to those that choose to accept the gift. If your heart feels stirred at all with what I am sharing then take a moment to ask Him to forgive your sins and let Him cover them with the blood He shed at Calvary so you are washed white as snow. Then invite Him into your heart and He will be with you always and forever.    (pause a moment)

Holy Spirit thank you for those that accepted the invitation this very day and seal the words upon their hearts. The bible says that in the moment one gives their heart to the Lord all the angels rejoice. Imagine that – at our Mother’s Celebration of Life Mass she can hear the cheers of the angels in heaven of those that made the decision this very day of March 24, 2023 and for those who joined her with Jesus in their hearts.  We love you Mom and will see you soon one day in heaven.

Our mother’s wish was for us to share the following words of an author unknown. Titled: TO THOSE I LOVE AND THOSE WHO LOVE ME:

When I am gone release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You must not tie yourself to me with tears. Be happy that we had so many years.

I gave you my love and you can only guess how much you gave to me in happiness. I thank you for the love you each have shown but now it's time I travel alone.

So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must. Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It’s only for a while that we must part, so bless the memories within your heart.

I won’t be far away, for life goes on. So if you need me call and I will come. Though you can’t see or touch me, I’ll be near. All my love around you soft and clear.

And then when you must come this way alone, I’ll greet you with a smile and a WELCOME HOME.

Whenever we would tell her “I love you," her response back was always “Love you more.” Please join me in a collective congregation response of her famous saying, that will bring a smile to her face.

(PAUSE)... “Love you more.”

My desk piece of joy to see.

Let's Publish Again For Churches/Ministries That Are Struggling. Did You Figure Out Yet Whom In The Ministry Is Stealing From You? Once You Discover, Fire Them & All The Financial Troubles Will Dissipate. Very Simple Task, Just Do It.

This is a compilation of 2 prior blogs I published. I combined them both to make it easier for you instead of searching them out in prior blog posts. 1st portion I published 10/22/2021 & 2nd portion was published 1/21/2022.

I used to attend a church and I like the fact that when I donated, tithed, or made offerings the church was backed by ECFA. I happened to check recently and they still have this insignia on their website. Letting the donors know that they are still watching over the financials of their church. It really is peace of mind to those that are donating and trusting in faith that the donation is planted in safe soil. ECFA stands for Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability.

I highly suggest you go to their website and see if the church or ministry you donate to is a member. It brings peace of mind to the ministry knowing those that handle finances are doing a great job. Most important, it brings peace of mind to the donors knowing their financial donations are being taken care of. I would guess it is like another pair of eyes making sure your ministry is running smoothly at least on the financial end.

Here is their website  https://www.ecfa.org or give them a call @ 800.323.9473.

Signing up as a member with ECFA Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability is a plus of trust when the ministry is accredited. Why would a ministry not want to be a member?

If there is nothing to be kept behind closed doors so to speak then I challenge you to let a 2nd set of eyes to hold the ministry accountable in regard to finances. Not only will it give the ministry peace of mind knowing all is well but most importantly, the donors or patrons of the ministry too.

Throughout the years we have seen ministries come and go and heard the stories of ministries getting a bit sidetracked and not being above board in regard to spending the money entrusted to them by their followers/believers in that particular ministry.

Accountability is not only important to God but please consider those that put their faith in God and follow through with Holy Spirit guidance to place faith offerings into the ministry. They are hearing from God. Do you not have an obligation to assure those that everything is above board in the financial realm so as their blessing is not hindered because of maybe some sort of sloppy spending/book work being kept?

At least consider looking into what this organization is all about. Do research. Reach out to them @ 800.323.9473. One final thought ... if there is resistance coming from your financial people within then maybe that might be a sign of caution to at least check it out. If everything is running smoothly within your ministry, then just look @ this as a second layer of protection for the ministry. Only the heads of ministries can choose to look into this for God gave the ministry to them and they ultimately will be the ones held accountable for what God gave to them and how they stewarded it. Pray about this; go over your financial book work with a fine-tooth comb so to speak so you can say all is well, all is well with my soul.

One More Piece To The Puzzle. Use Wisdom & Do Not Fall For A Trap satan Will Put Before You, Seek Counsel & Wisdom Before Taking Action.

I knew there was something more that needed to be added to yesterday's blog entry. When all of that was taking place, this thought popped into my mind, and I shared it with one of the spouses of a wise couple I was asking them to pray for me. See, there is a local minister I was acquainted with, and they were going to be preaching at a local church recently. I was planning on going so I could share my Christmas prayer miracle testimony with one of them that day after the church service. I even ironed and had planned out what I was going to wear that day.

As I shared this with a person, I felt led to ask them to pray for me because I knew inside of me I was walking into enemy (satan that is) territory. I know that may sound odd to you, but I have had dreams already of this particular church and there is deep down hidden sin in this church and that is why I was asking for prayer protection over me. I have been in situations before when Holy Spirit causes me to go places and even speak things others may not want to do. Does that make sense. I have this gentle boldness that rises up inside of me, I ask Holy Spirit to let me step aside and for Him to flow through me with me not adding or subtracting anything less of Him inside of me coming forth as he directs me. 

Sometime after getting off of the phone and shared the plan and asked for prayer Holy Spirit speaks to my heart. He tells me to stay away from that church service for the enemy was setting up for my life a trap. I heard Him speak to my heart the trap would be released the moment I stepped into that church. I then sent a message thanking them for praying for me because Holy Spirit spoke to me to stay away from the potential trap that was waiting for me if I took the bait. Praise God for godly people that will pray for you and Holy Spirit's gentle whispers. Needless to say, I stayed away and watched 2 different church services that morning. Solid Rock Church from Monroe, OH & Sonlife Broadcasting in Louisianna.

I am learning to use wisdom and caution these days in which we live in. Yes, your world may be slightly turned upside down. Meaning whom you followed or believed in before you may find yourself pulling back from and that is okay. It is better to be safe with Holy Spirit direction in your life then stepping into things that may slow down or delay your divine destiny in your life. I have found out that these types of ministers hang around in groups of ministers. They support each other and promote each other also. Be cautious in whom you may be following today because the main minister just may be true and sincere but those, they hang around with may be tainted and then that little bit can ruin the entire lump of dough. Who wants to bake or even eat tainted/spoiled bread baked with tainted dough so to speak.

Sometimes you are called to walk against the grain so to speak and trust Holy Spirit because He is ever faithful and will never let you down, UNLESS, you choose to go against what He is calling you to do. See, He does not let you down it is you letting down your guard that can bring disappointment and a slowing down of you walking into divine destiny. USE WISDOM in all things okay. Read your bible and follow Holy Spirit guidance and that is the best place to be in your life. One more important thing is to pray for these ministers that they know true salvation so they will spend eternity in heaven with their loved ones they may be missing dearly here on earth.

Did You Know There Are Ananias' & Sapphira's In The Church Nowadays? I Have Been Seeking Truth & Finding Out Leaders I Trusted May Not Be So Trusting As I Gave Them Credit For Being. Learning Truths Can Be A Bit Unsettling But Necessary To Advance In Your Life. Do Not Be Afraid Of Truth Because Truth Then Brings FREEDOM.

For several days now I have been stumbling upon videos of people that are pointing out via scripture that the people you may have trusted for prophetic words/insights just may not be who they portray to be. I think when the student is ready the teacher appears. Not all learning is going to be an easy joy ride especially when truth presented makes sense. Ministry, I am finding out is a money maker in some instances to fill their coffers. Yes, there may have been a season in which you gleaned and gleaned greatly but then something a bit here and a bit there subtly changes and takes place within the ministry. Maybe it is known as growing up yourself and not so much as gullible as you may have been before. Maturity is a good thing and may be in your life today to cause you to part away for the next phase in your life.

We are all on different journeys and adventures with Holy Spirit which move us in directions we may not have chosen if truth revealed happened sooner than in God's timing. Accept the blessings and growth in your life to that point and then bless them and move on to where you are to be. Can this be uncomfortable to an extent? Yes, it can be to an extent, leaving behind things in which you became comfortable in and branching out to uncharted territories to experience divine destiny in God. Starting out with trepidation but great joy at the same time if that makes sense. When you discover the truth do not condemn them because maybe they are doing the best they know how to do in life & ministry. Choose to receive the blessings and leave the rest behind. Trust me, they probably don't even realize who you are and that you even existed in life but gladly accepted the best you had to offer at the time. God will not condemn you if you question now all the times you gave and gave and then begin to wonder if it was a rich soil to plant seed faith offerings into. I heard this once before that if things come out in the open of things not so good going on in a ministry that you planted seeds of life into that God saw the purity and intent of your heart at the time and blessings can come forth even though the soil may be a bit tainted at the time. He searches your heart and the intent of your heart and not that you may have been being deceived into thinking it is rich soil.

If you feel better being honest with Jesus and feel so led to repent of being gullible and it makes you feel less duped then do so, God honors that. He is a good, good Father and He loves His children. Think of this as a learning curve so as to know what to look for the next time it may arise in your life. The seeds of faith planted did not go into fallow ground per say because they were planted in faith to cause your faith to grow if that makes sense to you. It will make perfect sense if you have been there before. If you planted seed faith offerings with a pure heart before God, then He accepts your offering even given to the hands of another via another's ministry.

A few days ago. 1/3/2024 to be exact this is what happened to me. May I share with you? My digital clock showed 5:04 AM as I woke up to write down the scripture I just heard to go and read, Acts 5:4. One of my children's birthdays is the same 5/4. What I am going to share shocked me when I saw this video. I Then watched a few more videos in which this couple debunks ministers and backs it up with scripture. Especially some of the well-known prophets that bring forth words for the new year and some of last year's prophetic words that did not come to fruition.

After I saw the time and scripture verse to read, I did not have my bible that I usually keep on the bed with me in that particular room and felt led to read the Amplified version bible for this particular moment reading of scripture and that I did. To get that from my shelf to read Acts 5:4 to the end of the chapter then read 1-4 in Acts 5. I went to lay back down to ponder this & I began to hear the song, "The Little Drummer Boy." playing inside of me.

Holy Spirit knew as I went to bed last night, I was sort of upset & perplexed after watching on YouTube TV a video I stumbled upon when searching for Mike Bickle updates. I think it was called "the long truth 1" or something like that. I was shocked to hear what he and his wife were sharing when speaking on the Kansas City Prophets that was false focusing in on Bob Jones. Dissecting things he said & did & backing things up with scripture as to these things not lining up with the word of God. It shocked me that in 1963 he had 2 women disrobe themselves & told them they were to stand naked before the Lord as some purification act, that they had nothing to hide before the Lord. Apparently, John Wimber had him sit down from ministry for a time period. It was "Long truth 1" titled "Kansas City and the word Prophet had an X through it Exposing IHOPKC Kooks; Bob Jones" or something to that affect in the titled video.

So, the other day another video catches my attention, and I viewed it. Guess what? It lines up with what Holy Spirit was speaking and showing to me about in scripture on 1/3/2024. He always confirms His word doesn't He. There are some sick people out there under the guise of being a minister and some can be a bit sinister too. Use caution in the days in which we live in now. Yes, lying and deceptive spirits of Ananias & Sapphira walk amongst us today. Lying and deceit were not dealt with lightly in the bible. Somehow those that deceive think they are getting away with the deception but the watchful eye of God Almighty sees all. Repent and turn from your wicked ways while time permits you to do so.

The impactful video I mentioned is also found on YouTube TV. Tom Curtain by Joshua Simone. RT Kendall Prophetic Integrity "The Charismatic Movement is Ishmael but an Issac Movement is Coming." It had the other day 5.8K views.

I sought out counsel when I discovered the first video because I felt duped big time not by Bob Jones because I never met him, and he did not ever minster to me. I felt that way by those I trusted that all seem to want some sort of bragging rights that they served with him and how powerful his ministry was and all the prophetic words he brought forth. I even made up a gift basket for his wife one time and then now I feel sorry for her now knowing what I know. She was much younger than him when she married him, and if he was going around planting kisses on her lips in public places and church. In her testimony she tells how she had to tell him once that her lips are reserved for the man she was to marry. I have empathy for her especially if she was aware of the situation that took place in 1963. I guess you never know what a person walks through in life unless you truly walk in their shoes. Don't walk in someone else's shoes, walk in the shoes given to you in your life okay.

It was suggested to me that it is easy for this couple to dissect another person's life/ministry and pick it apart when they are not being vulnerable themselves and having their lives dissected. People do make mistakes and for another to shine a spotlight on those of others and not shine that very spotlight on things in their own lives. I agree with that concept, but I think there is a bigger picture in this for me. It is time to have blinders and scales removed from my eyes and let truth be revealed so as to move on to what I am called to do in life, my life with Jesus that is. I am not going to watch anymore of the dissecting couple's videos unless Holy Spirit direct me to in particular.

I thought I learned this lesson years ago but apparently not. Never place anyone on a pedestal and elevate them in your eyes. God gets center stage always and do not replace that even with a minister or church or even a church affiliation.

President Trump, Stand Strong In Your Faith In God & Never Give Up Hope.

When I am out & about in the evenings and weekends, I always try to bless a veteran if I see them wearing a ballcap, tee-shirt, jacket or sweatshirt that states they are a veteran of some war or branch of the service I take time to thank them. Not a mamby pamby type of thank you but a heartfelt thank you. I do not take my freedom and rights we have in this country for granted because it was through their service to our country that has given me these precious freedoms. Today, when we look around with what is going on in our country it causes you as a citizen to wonder how many of those very freedoms are being mocked by people illegally invading our precious country. I was listening to local news talk radio last week and was perturbed by what I heard. I know I have seen crazy like driving on our highways and just thought they were bold, inconsiderate drivers. Well, did you know this is going on in the streets of our country now ... illegals that NEVER drove a car or never had a driver's physical road test let alone a driver's license from the country they originated from are driving on our streets amongst law abiding citizens. Citizens that did it the right way. Meaning, taking driving lessons, taking the written and practical drivers road test and submitted the proper paperwork/documentation required are being forced to drive on streets with illegals abusing our laws. How could they possibly be allowed without a driver's license to get a car and drive on our roads. How many of them don't even speak or read English understand our signs on the road let alone the laws of our country?

It is obvious that they have disregard for our laws, or they wouldn't be breaking the laws of our country and overflooding our country. Do we even know who they are and the diseases and disfunction they are bringing into our country. Why do we as legal citizens do not have a say so in this matter to keep our country safe like when we were growing up as children. I am not saying everyone coming into our country is a bad person, but it makes you wonder why they are doing this entrance into our country in such a blatant manner. We, I am sure could not and would not be allowed to crash borders of other countries around the world. They would say no at their borders if one even tried to do that silliness.

You know, one of my prior jobs was working at a DMV and I administered those very driving road tests and as you know me as a rules type of person, I made sure each person that passed their drivers test followed the rules and laws and listened to the instructions given to them. See, if they did not follow the instructions given then that was a part of not passing the test. How can you get in a vehicle with someone that spoke no English at all, and they followed the instructions given to them. How did you know they didn't speak English? It was obvious sometimes, sometimes when administering tests in the parking lot area before getting on the road for the driving portion of the test. I would have to tell the person that brought them there to take the test you cannot translate for them when I would ask simple instructions like turn on your right turning signal, press the brake etc. We had to make sure certain parts of their vehicle were in working order. I would have no problem saying to them stop they have to know and understand what I am saying before we get on the road.

So, you are instructing someone to turn right, and they keep going straight through the light. Caution, so you had to by using your hands since they didn't speak English direct them to pull into a parking lot. I then at that point had to get in the driver's seat and drive back to the DMV since they already failed the test. Was always told you do not let them know they didn't pass the test until safely back in the DMV parking lot. See, there was a certain nationality driving instructor known for this out there that would groom them on what to do to pass the parking lot portion of the test to allow them to go on the road test portion. There was a picnic table on the grounds, and he would bring them there to show them while we were conducting tests to see what they had to do when it was their turn. How dangerous it is for the employee getting into a car with someone that does not speak or understand English, and you are driving with them. It was bad back then and I can only imagine what it is like today. My belief is even the written test should only be given in English, not all the other languages they offered then. We speak and read English and our road signs are in English so if you really want to have the privilege of driving on our roads then take the time to learn English.

Here is another thought coming to mind now. So, all of the immigrants that paid the money required and classes taken to become a citizen in the legal way should be reimbursed any money they had to pay to receive citizenship. Do you think our government would do that? I think they should, considering, that illegals crashing our borders don't have to do it legally so why not reimburse legal citizens that obtained it the legal way. Hum, I wonder if my grandparents would qualify for some of that.

Back to the train of thought about veterans I converse with while shopping, going to the movie, eating dinner out, etc. When we talk about the state of our USA now, they inevitably will volunteer sharing with me that the only president that looked out for veterans and has helped them they say it was President Trump. 

Got Back Home From Atlanta Yesterday Afternoon.

I spent a week with one of my children this past week. When you live alone you adjust to living that life with peace and solitude. A simple life I mean, yes, a simple life. When family comes to visit it brings out the adventure in life and exploring together then when going on adventures alone with Holy Spirit. We did some fun things together. We toured The Hermitage, home of President Jackson. I forfeited going to the upstairs portion of the tour and sat on the ground level and read a booklet explaining with pictures also of what was upstairs. There is talk that the whole house is haunted. Let me share what I witnessed. You know young children are sensitive to evil spirits. There was this young one that wanted no part of being in that house with loud crying. The parents took the child out of the home tour. Do you think it is possible that the young child just may have sensed something not quite right?

Saturday night just when I fell asleep doesn't my child's cat decided to jump on the bed and plop down on me. That startled me and I pushed in a gentle manner the cat off of me. I do not like that sort of stuff. Then I had to deal with trying to fall back to sleep. I have to admit not so much a cat person. I really am not geared to have pets. I did it and have no interest in being tied down when I want to go somewhere. It is like having a child again. So, I then wake up from a prophetic dream of destiny for me. I would have been quite happy with a dream like that in the past months, but I did not want to deal with that in my life now. I rebuked the dream and said I did not want it and to erase all memory of the dream from my life. If you had this dream maybe you would have liked it, but I am a new person now that is not easily hood winked and not going to fall for that stuff in this new year we are approaching.

There is deceit in the church and when you try to flush it out it is as if you are placing a wet blanket on the ministry and maybe they just don't want to deal with deceit. I was once told that stuff could be going on in a church/ministry and even though it is in existence the main leader(s) just don't want to know about it. How could that be. If things are wrong doesn't the leadership sense it somehow. I would think so wouldn't you. I also heard from someone that was able to see behind the scenes of ministries how they work. They put out pleas for the people to donate and they say it is because they are low on finances and in some cases, it is a plea to get money because someone in the ministry wants to do a certain project and they tug at the heart strings of donors to donate to the ministry. I don't like that a bit. If there is a project, then raise the money first then delve into the project with financing all in place. I have heard ministers say they are stepping out in faith sometimes before even the money is raised to back the project. Isn't that putting the cart before the horse so to speak. I want nothing to do with ministry if this sort of stuff goes on. It was also shared with me how some ministries ask you to send in your prayer requests and they will pray over them and @ times donations are attached to the request sent in. So, believe it or not, some ministries place all of the requests in a box or container and they are all lumped together when someone prays over the box/container. What if someone is simply believing that a minister is taking their prayer request into their hands and actually praying over that specific prayer request. When I found out things like this, can you see why I don't want to have anything to do with ministry.

Then from what I understand you know when you send an email to a minister but get no response at all? Has that ever happened to you? Especially if you have a concern about something going on in the ministry. Well, apparently someone glances over the emails and if things like a donation is being made or some great testimony is being shared, they then may send that to the minister but all others the minister really never sees. You are just a nobody sending an email and why would they take the time to respond. Oh, I forgot, no money sent in then no response given. Why waste their time and effort. Then take caution in a ministry if you start to see a staff member that has been given a little more authority or free reign to rule and their ego starts to be revealed. Things like forgetting who they actually work for, and they begin to promote themselves or their ministry before the actual minister themself they work for. If you give them enough time and let them talk you will begin to see it manifest. Sort of reminds me of when satan started acting that way in heaven and God would not put up with that at all and he was thrown out of heaven like lightning and fell to the earth. Use caution if you are seeing things like this. It starts off subtly then gets more aggressive with each new inch of power given to them. These are the type of people that can bring down a ministry and it is too late once the damage has been done. When you start hearing staff members using the term "I" a lot then your red flag warning signs should be going off loud and clear that there is a traitor in our midst trying to fulfill their own agenda under the guise of doing it for the betterment of the ministry.

Use wisdom, use wisdom and you will be just fine.

Yesterday while heading back home, I stopped at Ingles family-owned (USA owned) grocery store in GA and bought 2 freshly made apple fritters to give to 2 of my neighbors. Later in the afternoon I visited with one neighbor for a bit and dropped off 2 pieces of pizza for her to try along with an apple fritter and some Trader Joe's dark chocolate peanut butter cups. Enjoyed my visit. That was a neighbor in her 80's. Then went and got apple fritter, peanut butter cups and a Reese cup Christmas tree I made that I still had in the frig and blessed her with that. She is 97 years old. She said to me again how I still need to go with her some Sunday to her Pentecostal church she thinks I will like her pastor. I have not ruled that out as of now so one Sunday I just may go with her to her church.

I watched last evening the Sunday service of Solid Rock Church from the morning then tuned in for the evening service livestream. I also watched Marty Goetz live, his family and friends were there last night. I fell asleep at 1 point before midnight then around 2am I went to bed. I had another dream in which I said to Holy Spirit I do not want to deal with this. For 2 nights in a row, I had dreams with a person I am trying to get away from this year and they show up in my dreams what is that all about. I don't really want to have anything to do with them in my life and they keep showing up in my dreams. I am trying to rebuke these dreams. 

I finished my laundry last night and put fresh linen on the beds and today I had a little ironing to do and that is now done. I don't feel like going into town today so I just may stay local since I did do driving yesterday heading back from GA. Yesterday, when I arrived back home the sun was shining outside, and I filled the backyard bird feeder up and the birds are also eating the bird seed in the front yard as well. I replaced a Roku remote with an updated one and I like the ease of speaking for searching and the volume adjustment is on the side of the remote. I like it so much I just may go and get another one for the other bedroom to have, to replace the remote that came with the Roku when I purchased it.

Use wisdom when dealing with ministries but still try to find the silver lining in the cloud of those ministries okay. They are human just like you and I and I am sure they make mistakes and some of those mistakes I am sure they may have regretted making decisions that led to those very mistakes. Don't be too hard on them because I am sure they have a lot more riding on their mistakes then maybe the average person does. Have compassion and respect because you do not want to judge too harshly because the same manner in which you judge by you may be judged back in one way or another. Speak peace be still and rejoice in their successes okay.

I had 1 more thing to do today before I published this blog. I went to the store to get some ingredients I needed to make a family traditional recipe today and I also made homemade dumplings & applesauce too. I put together a care package for one of my neighbors and brought it to her with the 2 items I made. Share the cooking blessing. While I am finishing this up, I am listening to Ryan LeStrange live (I think it is re-broadcast maybe from last night.) It seems to be in line with what I am sharing about today. I am going to also add the link to this for you to view.

I also made homemade dumplings to add to this for that is how we make it in our family.
