2 Eye Opening Videos Brought To You By "Real Talk With Jordan Riley"

It never ceases to surprise me with the amount of information out there about preachers & ministers to be cautious of. So sad when you think about it. I am sure and hope there are really good, sincere & honest ministers out there that I didn't get duped by. Sure is getting harder and harder to find them though. What would Jesus think or do if He appeared this very day and witnessed in person the mess the Christian community is in, using empathy or trusting people for them to make money off of. That baffles me and imagine what the world would be like today if they knew Jesus was coming to view all of this mess. Supposedly all done in the name of Jesus as they so freely tell you. Give me this amount of offering money & you will see this happen in your life. Only to find out that it didn't happen. Isn't that classified as lying and bilking honest people looking for answers. Uh oh, there I go thinking out loud again. What about this thought ... older people trying to re-brand themselves or their ministry and do you think they are using AI generated photos and even video clips? How can a preacher that walks with cane assistance and then all of a sudden you see a video clip of them walking without a cane and walking normal? Is that sort of deceiving the people/followers of their ministry. In my opinion, I think it is. Would they pull those type of antics if they knew Jesus was watching them? Something to ponder on.



Would You Like To See My Gifts Given To Amish Family I Have Befriended?

I shopped for the Amish family that have 8 children and one of my children was visiting for the week and they drove me to Amish country to deliver them. I was happy to introduce them to my child also. There is 1 item missing from the picture though. I gave the mother-in-law weeks ago a recipe for Apple Butter Pie with Tangy Whipped Cream. I baked it for the holiday and I put aside 2 pieces of the pie with the whipped cream and brought it to her also. It is fun being the giver of gifts, it truly is. I of course asked the mother if it was okay to give the children the sticker by number "Words of Jesus"  booklet and she said yes.




Oh Did I Bake Much For Christmas ...

This past Christmas season I had much time to bake cookies for gift giving and enjoying also. I would pace myself and bake a little here and there. I sent out in the mail some for family to enjoy; also added to Christmas gifts for family members to enjoy also. I did order my chocolates from Waggoner's Chocolates in Canton, Ohio. I purchased them as a Christmas in July special and they delivered them in November as I requested. I found adorable Christmas tree sealable storage bags @ Hobby Lobby and filled them with chocolates to add to Christmas gifts.

For the first time ever in my life I had the time to try and bake potica (nut roll). I found 1 of my mother's recipes for this and it looked so much easier to make then the traditional potica recipes. Come to find out that my sister said the recipe I made was the one our mom made because it was easier and all her friends told her it tasted good. So, of all the recipes to choose from to make potica, I happened to select the one my mother made when she did make it in her later years, imagine that. It really is great tasting and I did add 1 ingredient to the filling which was plumped (soaked in hot water) golden raisins. This particular recipe is named Bohemian Walnut Honey Christmas Bread.

I also made a new cookie recipe Coconut Macaroons. I had this recipe for many years and decided to try it this year. Way back when, Hershey's chocolate had a tri-fold type of recipe card and this was 1 of those recipes. Oh, another favorite I baked was a recipe on the back of a package of Nestles Triple Chocolate baking morsels. I did a search to see if you can make it in a bar form as opposed to individual cookies and made it that way and it turned out good. Will be making cookie bars instead of individual cookies from now on. Also made a family favorite, the oatmeal bars. I used apricot preserves and Amish made cherry pie filling this year. I baked thin mint type of cookies; ricotta cookies; Italian dunker cookies; thumbprint cookies filled with sour cherry and apricot filling; and graham cracker cookies (another mom favorite she used to bake). You place graham crackers on a foil lined cookie sheet then boil brown sugar and butter, then pour over the graham crackers and sprinkle chopped walnuts on top then bake it in the oven. They are quite crunchy as the topping turns that way when baked in the oven. It can be a bit stick to your teeth as you eat it because it tuns sort of like toffee.

Do you think I baked a good variety of cookies. Oh, I also baked a cream cheese type of butter cookie.

I also made the baked croissants. You dip the base into melted butter then dredge in cinnamon sugar. Bake it it the over for about 10 minutes and then glaze with a ticker type of glaze made with butter, vanilla or almond flavoring, powdered sugar and milk.




Here are a few photos of the potica

Maybe The White House Administration May Benefit By Appointing "Not By Sight News" Originator As Director Of Faith Office. He Actually Understands & Knows What Truly Being Born Again Means. In My Opinion, Apparently Our Current Director Doesn't Have A Clue When It Comes To This Very Important Subject. If They Did, They Wouldn't Be Mixing True Christianity With Organizations Like The Moonie Cult Church & Honoring Their Currently Jailed Leader. There I Go, Thinking Out Loud Again ...

Does anyone out there truly understand what and how one becomes born again? This guy surely does and I commend him for not giving up on the alleged victims of Pastor Joe Campbell who is the pastor of Jim Bakker's church also. This man has investigated for many months now this debacle within the church and hopefully these alleged victims will finally see justice being served. They were as young as 9 years old when it started and now some in their 50's. Please look up this guys exposing prior videos to see the sick things this supposed man of God and I am also hearing of alleged sick things his wife also participated in with these children in their very home. He also gives credit to the person who did the investigation to reveal this sick, sick stuff.

You know, each time I hear our current President of the USA make a comment when a person dies I then cringe a bit because obviously, the current Director of the White House Faith Office apparently has not explained the born again situation one chooses to invite Jesus into their hearts? That totally baffles me when pondering on this person has the ears of our President and is in a position to advise them also.

When I hear how the deceased person is looking down from heaven that statement is not always accurate. You see, there are only 2 places one will go when they draw their last breath here on earth: HEAVEN or HELL. There is no purgatory; any amount of prayers prayed by loved ones on their behalf; candles being burned or monetary offering being made on the deceased ones behalf that can get them out of hell for all eternity. Salvation is a free gift given and no works can earn you this free gift. One has to have a true heart encounter with Jesus and ask to be forgiven of their sins committed and acknowledge Jesus died on the cross, rose from the dead and it is by Jesus that one gets the free gift of salvation. To invite Jesus into your heart and to be the Lord of your life. If one unfortunately does not do this while still alive, there is no turning back at this point. You had all of your life to decide or not if you wanted to give your heart to Jesus. I have also heard preachers explain it this way and I understand this. If a child which is not at the age of accountability before they die, then they are taken to heaven.

In a sweet, sweet, fairytale type of world of course, people would like to see all go to heaven for all eternity. That is not the case and I sure do wish someone would explain that to the current administration in my opinion so they don't make blanket like statements like that because those words seem to bring comfort to the country.

Now, you may believe me or not but I have shared on this blog before what my experience was many years ago when I was somehow allowed to hear the most awful, gut wrenching screams of those in hell. In that moment I do believe inside of me came to be a desire to reach out to the lost and share the gospel and the truth about being born again by inviting Jesus into your heart. That 1 day I was praying in my bedroom and it was like the carpeting was somehow (in the spiritual realm that is, not actually carpet being pulled back in the natural) pulled back and the floor opened up to somehow allow me to hear people screaming that were in hell. I still remember that awful sound and I began to cry and asked Holy Spirit to show me why I experienced that very real moment in time.

The answer is simple, share the gospel with others and lead them to Jesus or teach them about salvation. People, there are many good people out there doing good deeds but if you do not have Jesus in your heart no amount of good deeds or good works alone will get you in heaven for  ALL ETERNITY. I have found that when one has a true heart changing life by inviting Jesus into your heart and life, one then naturally tends to change their way of life and you do find them doing good deeds, acts of kindness. Not sure how that works out but I do see it.

In my opinion, the best gift one could give to a loved one in your life is sharing the gospel and leading them to Jesus so they will be with you if you are born again for all eternity in heaven. Do not be afraid to witness to others of what Jesus has done in your life. I am so reminded of the wonderful things He has done in my very life. Oh parents, remember, if your children are beyond younger years and the age of accountability is now in their lives. They have to choose for themselves if they want Jesus in their hearts. You cannot force one to accept Jesus, it has to be a free choice they choose to make. Wow, I had no idea I would be sharing all of this today. I thought this was going to be a short blog entry with just sharing the video. Blessings to you today and don't forget to take care of the widows & orphans too.

This Video Will Make You Laugh By Drew Bloom.

Here is Drew's Friday Fruit Clips 100th video. It is a compilation of favorites throughout the past videos. I think you will find yourself laughing at times. Enjoy


Very Important/Informative Video. I Implore You To Please View.

I viewed this video livestream by Gary Schumacher Exposing False Prophets Ministry. It is eye opening and very informative. I trust you will find it to be also. He is joined with Alabama Woodsman & Robin on this video.

Do You Have Room For Another Ministry Exposure Video Or 2?

Isn't this sad. so many exposure types of videos out there exposing the stuff going on. My greater question I present is why do these ministries seem to get away with this nonsense and kind of bilking trusting people? I was one of them until my eyes were opened up by the YouTube people out there exposing this sheer nonsense. I read my bible and ask Holy Spirit so many times why they are allowed to continue mocking God and invoking the name of Jesus is so many false words they spew forth all in the name of Jesus. Why are they not being shut down and stop receiving donations from people that follow their supposed ministry. They make $ in my opinion off of the backs so to speak of hard-working people that are taking the bait and donate.

I shared with you before how I reached out to James W. Goll and requested a $500.00 donation refund I made when my mother died. I simply asked him to prove that he bought his then dying wife at the time a Jaguar car to give her something to hope for in life at the time. It was CRICKETS meaning no response at all. No proof of this purchase and all I requested of him was show me proof to corroborate with the testimony you shared with me via email or then return the $500.00 donation if no proof presented. See, they try to wear you down in hopes that you give up in your request. I did. I eventually then said it is no longer my battle but let God take care of this and I withdrew my request. 

So, the man is now I think 73 years old and the last time I saw him he was walking with the assistance of a cane and people helping him getting off and, on a stage, or platform. So, if you go to James W. Goll Instagram/Facebook or God Encounters Ministry the same you see an advertising type of video clip of him walking just fine, is this deception of some sort to trick the people into following his ministry? Then if you look closer at some of his advertising photos it appears that you are seeing in my opinion a younger looking James wearing a suit. When actually was James wearing a suit recently. I do recall he wore a suit when he spoke at Paul Cain's funeral/memorial. People wise up. Your trusting and kind heart is bilking you of money you so trustingly donate to the likes of some of these grifter type of prophets/apostles etc. in my opinion that is. Please Holy Spirit is my prayer for our federal government to shut down the Faith Office in the West Wing of the White House and open up a department called DOMA (department of ministry abuse) and go after these supposedly charlatans, grifters, whatever you want to refer to them as. James Goll are those promo photos by any chance AI generated, just curious. I was able to copy the links for you all to view for yourself, what do you think?

James. W. Goll, You Sure Do Get Around In Videos. Not Always For Positive Reasons Though. Is It Time For You To Contemplate Retiring & Enjoy Your Family & Grandchildren? Something To Ponder On.

My goodness James W. Goll, have you not been in enough videos in which people use you as an example of the silliness that comes from you, in my opinion that is. Have you never pondered on just retiring, hanging up your so-called ministry shingle (I think that is the expression or something like that) and retire. You have a family with even grandchildren growing up each year a bit more. Maybe it is time to consider hanging up the ministry and enjoying family life before it passes by you. Sort of like being in a field of flowers and admiring from a distant view the beauty of the flowers but not taking the time to stop and smell the beautiful fragrance that comes forth from the flowers surrounding you. In a situation like that example, you have to capture the moment while it is still there. If one waits too long the flower begins to fade and wilt and the sweet fragrance dissipates. Missing the total experience all together but you are able to say that you saw the beauty of the flowers. Did the person experience the fullness of that beauty. Just wondering and thinking out loud again. 

As I was viewing this video brought to you by Longfor Truth1 Ministry I was surprised and did not expect James W. Goll to be featured along with Katie. About 46:00 minutes into the video you can view for yourself. Then Joan Hunter is featured with her also. I cannot believe that a few years ago I interacted with both James Goll & Joan Hunter. Thank God I never went and was ordained through her ministry. All of her literature and training tools along with James Goll's also I pitched in the trash months ago. How did I ever let myself get deceived in my opinion by the likes of those two. I also got rid of any Katie Souza stuff I also acquired. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for your divine guidance & direction. To God be the glory.

Do You Think I Should Go Back & Delete Blogs In Which I Promoted Pastors, Prophets Etc. & Their Books/Music That I No Longer Follow. Or Just Leave Them Up For Posterior Sake?

You know, I have been thinking about doing this in the event someone may read my blog and think the particular blog entry is supporting someone when in fact I no longer support their ministry or training tools of the trade. Then another part of me reminds me to not delete them because it shows how I have matured in my walk with Jesus and how truth became illuminated in my life so as to not hopefully fall for those deception tools and ploys out there amongst people claiming they represent true Christianity and Jesus. I have never seen so many that seem to loosely use "Thus Saith the Lord" when they ae supposedly claiming to hear the voice of God and having dreams they just have to get out there and share with the world. How many people do you actually know that have regular encounters, heavenly visits, dreams and words of the Lord on a frequent basis? Sure does cause one to wonder, do you agree?

2 Pretty Good Recipes To Share. All Incorporate Apple Butter As An Ingredient.

I found these 2-apple butter related recipes I thought I would share with you. The meatloaf recipe I do not use turkey or pork in, and I scale down the size of the recipe. It is worth trying though. The Apple Butter Pie is far superior if comparing to pumpkin pie in my opinion. The accompanying whipped cream will last a few days in your refrigerator (at least mine did) and maybe try adding it to a cup of coffee in place of a creamer. I have been using pumpkin pie seasoning in a cup of brewed Twinings Christmas Tea; it gives it an added spice flavor.


I use a quality beef, and I also add fresh mushroom slices. I do not use ground sage, but I do chop up fresh parsley from my garden and add to the meatloaf mixture. If I have some of my garden green peppers or a red pepper, I will chop some of that and add to the mixture also.


I think I made the pie because I was intrigued with a recipe calling for a frozen deep dish pie crust. In my opinion I have found Marie Callendar brand to work pretty good with this recipe as the 8" deep pie crust. You can purchase them in the freezer section of your grocery store. When comparing with other brands it seemed to be that they had more pie crust ingredients that didn't look too much with odd ingredients if that makes sense. Then I had a small glass pie plate as the size of a mini pie, so I also purchased in the freezer section @ Trader Joes their frozen pie crust rolled dough, and I then made a smaller pie with the extra left-over filling since I only had an 8" as opposed to a 9" deep dish pie crust. Sometimes it works out okay when you adapt a recipe, do you agree.

I told one of my Amish acquaintances about these 2 recipes (the one that makes fried pies and homemade candy) and so I printed the recipe to give to them the next trip I make there to visit. The meatloaf recipe is from the TN Farm Bureau recipes. The pie recipe is from "Southern Living" magazine. Happy apple butter baking/cooking to you. I also found instructions on how to freeze the baked pie and how to thaw it out properly to serve it.

Here Are The Quilts I Will Be Giving Back To The Church Ministry & Requesting A Refund. So Disappointed.

I am not a quilter, but I sure do have an eye for attention to details & anyone can see these quilts do not have a straight border line. Do you agree. So disappointed in this and will not be able to give as a gift. If I would not keep it for myself then why would I gift it to another. From what I understand, the 2 cannot be combined to make 1 quilt because one has lighter hues and the other darker hues.


The materials I purchased to make the prayer lap quilts

Do you see how the right-side of this quilt bows out and not a straight sewn line? Lower left-side bows inward.

Same on this one also. Look at the right-side top corner area. Look at the bottom one side is wider than the other. Do you think a measuring tape was not utilized?

Look What I Created Last Week In A Painting Class I Participated In ...

So much fun, truly a fun filled painting class. I think I wouldn't mind taking more classes but there seems to be none really around where I am located. It was a class on painting a gourd with a snowman face with a cap on the snowman. There are local artists that gather and sell their creations and within this organization there was a painting class offered. This is a group of talented folks from what I understand that have to be voted in by a board or committee or something of that nature to be allowed to sell their artistry at this location.

I was at a local farmers market in which 1 of the vendors shared with me about this organization. I researched and noticed a painting class was being offered. I went to this location to check it out and see what the class would be painting. Needless to say, I not only paid for the upcoming class but found a few items I also purchased that day. Imagine this, you know those little syrup jars they give you @ Cracker Barrel when you order pancakes? An artist melts them down, so they are flattened, and it looks like color is added to it and they create a suncatcher. How cleaver is that. Then another creates yard decorations out of plates, and one takes a cup and saucer and somehow attaches it to a pole for outside as a bird feeder. One works with chards of glass pieces and creates a light up tree decoration. Very creative and talented people that also sell their works. Hand painted cards, jewelry, sewn items and quilts also. They have a great variety of creative Christmas tree ornaments also. Let me share a few pictures from our class. I asked first before sharing the pictures on the blog, they said it was fine so here they are. I may also show you a few more items I purchased. There is creative talent out there just waiting for you to find to bless them with purchasing their creations made.

See this, one side is painted a winter scene, and you flip it over on the display stand for the daisy summertime scene. How clever is that.

prior time I painted with my mother, we painted a pear


I must admit that at first, I didn't seem to get the hang of this, and I asked the instructor if I could just buy the display model she painted and call it a day. She suggested I try a little bit longer and I am so glad I did not quit but followed through with this. The one picture of me getting a hug by another painter there's a story behind that. I shared after the class how the last time I painted with a group was with my mother when she was still living. A few family members went to see her on her birthday, and she received permission that we could all take the painting class with her for her birthday. That is when we painted a pear picture. As I shared it brought tears to my eyes and I asked if I could get a hug, you know, to take away melancholy sort of and remember this happy day of painting with a small group of people.

Oh, I have an update on the lap prayer quilts I made a donation to a church group to make. Remember, I bought coordinating colored material for them to create the quilt. I picked them up and they are just not quality like the prior ones I made donations for them to make. Crooked lines on the border and very flimsy batting between the 2 layers of the front and back. I wanted a 2nd opinion compared to what I saw, and I am not even a seamstress. So that day I asked one that makes quilts, they concurred with me that it was not a well put together lap quilt. I will be taking them back to the church, I can't give someone that as a gift with the way it was done let alone keep one for myself. Apparently, the way it was explained to me is the other quilts I received prior were donations given to the church and the quilt ministry finished the quilt someone was working on but never completed it. I asked if that person could make the lap quilts. Well, that person died and it was donated their quilt to this ministry. That person was very talented with making lap quilts. Oh well, life does go on.

Another Example Of Pure Nonsense. When Is This Going To Stop Robin Bullock; Katie Souza; Kat Kerr & Steve Schultz From Elijah Streams For Allowing This Nonsense To Be Aired For People To View?

This is getting way out of control and people seem to be so gullible to this sheer nonsense being spewed forth and they allegedly claim Jesus is giving them this info. Are people in my opinion that gullible. You watch and view this nonsense for yourself. Thanks to LongforTruth for publishing this.

Why Are People Following & Giving $ Still To Hank Kunneman's Outlandish Plans/Schemes In My Opinion That Is, Baffles Me

Here we go again. Are people out there truly gullible to this sort of thing. What do you think about my opinion: do you think either he truly raised all that $ in 1 week or could he possibly be stretching the truth. Maybe Hank should show us the receipts of donations made to cover the amount he is telling us he raised in 1 week's time. Now, of course, this is allegedly until shown otherwise. Please present the materials to back this story. I found it pretty distracting in some of the video clips why was his right leg giving the appearance of shaking while talking and telling the story to the people? Just wondering.



Kat Kerr Why Don't You Just Retire? Your Nonsense In My Opinion Is Crazy Talk

Revealing Truth Exposing Error recently posted this video. Kat Kerr is telling a story about Charlie Kirk. How do some of these people tend to get away with some of this nonsense. Better question to ask ... why are people donating to her?

Are You Curious To See How This Prayer Lap Quilt Will Turn Out? I Am

There is another prayer lap quilt Holy Spirit placed upon my heart to have made to bless another widow neighbor of mine. I reached out to the pastor of the church to see if I could request another quilt be made. I shared how this neighbor loves sunflowers and could that be a theme. Well, this sewing group only makes quilts with the materials they have or have been donated to them. I inquired if I could go out and purchase the materials to make this quilt, they said yes.

I have been on a mini mission in search of 100% cotton fabric to coordinate for this particular quilt. This is what I found and thought would all coordinate fine together. I am not a quilter so I have to trust that whomever it is placed into the hands of will create beauty for my neighbor.  Do you like the selection of material I found and purchased. I do.

The picture quality does not serve the colors well; in this picture it sort of gives them a duller appearance of what they actually look like in person.

Katie Souza What Are You Talking About? If We Are Not To Judge Others, Then Why Are Some Claiming Charlie Died A Martyr? Doesn't God Determine That, Then Why Is Man Trying To. I Saw This Recent Video That Caused Me To Think About Martyrdom.

 Yep, I was scrolling through recent videos, and this one caused me to think about martyrdom. We cannot determine if one was a martyr or not in death just like we cannot determine who is or is not in heaven. That is between God Almighty and that individual person. Their last breaths here on earth and their conversation with Jesus and so it is no one else's business. There are signs that one is walking with Jesus and that for sure is a comfort to the family left here on earth. You know, things like active anger, hatred in your heart, etc. that could possibly hold one back from heaven for all eternity. There are no indulgences one can purchase or burn enough church candles or even make financial offerings to a church for the deceased relative. That is a personal commitment one chooses to make while they are still alive; to invite Jesus into your heart or not and ask His forgiveness of your sins and wash you clean under the blood that He shed on the cross. So, we could live with Him for all eternity in heaven

It is very disturbing that someone would celebrate in a violent death that another experiences. Yes, it was amazing how they found the alleged killer in timely fashion, but may I also present this question to you ... are they searching in a timely fashion for the children that have been missing or allegedly been killed to recover either their living person or deceased body remains. No one should be more important over another. In my opinion that is. The missing children have families also with members I would like to think in their family that love and miss that child. Everyone should have some sort of commemoration that a child or even adult that is missing/allegedly killed a placard at a local cemetery. How about setting up a foundation to assist in finding and purchasing at least a tree being planted with some sort of placard designating their name and dates of life here on earth. Just a thought. Let's put a bit more effort into that sort of project. That is me thinking out loud again.

I know these may seem to be harsh words but let's bless the children. No child in my opinion could do something so horrific that they should have to be at the cruel hands of another that allegedly killed them, with no body to give them a respectable funeral or burial also.

Let Me Update You If I May

The other day I received a reminder for a free birthday gift I still had to redeem with a purchase made in the store. Okay I said to myself let's see what's out there in the form of a gift. I needed to refill my kitchen hand soap dispenser, so I purchased that refill. This time of the year for some silly reason I like the scent of the smell of marshmallows in a scent. I found some hand sanitizer and purchased that also that had marshmallow scent in it. So, while I was looking around in the store, I saw an elderly woman with maybe her son or grandson helping her find what she was looking for. I thought nothing of it, and I was @ the checkout. I inquired of the free birthday gift with my purchase. I turned around and looked at a rounder that had items on it for one to purchase. I heard the particular scent this woman was inquiring about, and I happened to notice it in a few different styles on the rounder which was within my reach also. I felt led to turn around and ask the woman if she would like to pick out an item with the scent she liked. She selected a lotion, so I got it and had the sales rep ring it up as my gift and I handed it to her. As I was about to leave, I inquired of the man with her as of her age. He responded 86 years old. I briefly stated how my mother lived until 93 years old.

In those moments of seeing this person shopping with the woman I could not help thinking of the times one of my children would pick up their Nana and take her to a hair appointment. They would sometime shop or get something to eat after the hair appointment. My brother-in-law & sister would sort of do sometimes the same thing as when around the holidays. My mom would give him/her the money, and he or my sister would go and purchase for her the gift cards she wanted to give as gifts @ times.

See, being kind never does go out of fashion does it. I am working on another project now. There is 1 more widow neighbor that I asked the pastor if they could make 1 more for me of the prayer lap quilts with a donation made to the church. I mentioned how she loves sunflowers. He responded that it is based on the materials they have on hand that has been donated. I was then on a tiny mission in search of materials to coordinate a quilt with incorporating sunflower pattern material along with coordinating colors to go with the pattern I selected. I know very little about making quilts, so I trust I purchased the right materials for this project.

When most people are asleep, I find myself baking brownies. I have in the oven dark chocolate Ghirardelli brownies in which I added mini peanut butter M&M's and a little extra vanilla flavoring to the mix. I have another little project. The other day I found a sticker by number Charlie Brown book by Brain Games. I purchased it for my great niece to work on. I thought it would be fun for her. So, this is what I did ... I completed the very first picture in the book as a little gift to her within the sticker book. Do you like that idea? I had fun yesterday working on it. I tend to be a bit of a perfectionist at times with liking things to match up when working on these types of projects. When done and looking at the picture I saw a few stickers in my opinion that needed to be re-positioned so as to fit in their numbered place to complete the full picture. What I like about this particular company is the quality they produce. If you are careful, the stickers can be re-positioned, if need be, without tearing the sticker itself.

I have worked on a folk-art sticker book, along with vintage butterfly pictures of the same type. I even have worked on a word search of women's names in the bible. Look up the company, "Brain Games." If you are by an Ollie's Outlet Store, check out to see if they have any in stock there because they are at a much better price point then if ordering else ware. In this week's advertisement they featured the Charlie Brown sticker book, so I went to see if they had it in stock and I bought one for 4.99. Lower price point then the other similar ones I purchased for 7.99 & 8.99. I liked so much one of the folk-art pictures I finished that I actually put it in a picture frame and hung it in one of the rooms of the house. It actually is in the frame in which I did a prophetic type of painting last year or the prior year while sitting on the back porch. I like projects like this to keep my mind sharp and not go dull if that makes sense.

Oh, I will be sending some brownies along with the sticker book to my great niece. Hope she likes it. I may try to make a few Italian dunker cookies to send along also. I have been baking here and here and freezing it because I am trying to make a small variety of items to send off care packages to a couple of my aunts.

The smaller box I purchased from a local Christian bookstore. They're smaller in size and they are blessing/scripture cards you can color, paint, etc.

Here is 1 of the blessing cards I worked on last week.





 

That fascinates me how the picture is completed with stickers.

Vicki Yohe We Are Waiting For An Apology, Will We Get One?

Oh my goodness, this recent video will open up your eyes. Do we like seeing things like this, I would say no we do not but unfortunately this is the reality we are living in today. Lord have mercy on us. Continue exposing and expelling within the church. I find it very hard to believe that our loving and just God did not bring opportunities to these people and others to come forth with the message to repent. My prayer for some time now has been please let these people of God repent and if they do not choose to repent and change their ways then expose and expel to clean up the church.

It Is Only Fair To Present Recent Interview With Vicki Yohe, To Hear Her Side Of the Story, Do You Agree?

I stumbled upon this recent interview and thought it would be prudent to share it with Vicki's story.

Here's One For All You Lawsons Chip Dip Fans Out There.

If you grew up enjoying Lawsons Chip Dip, then this one is for you. I was talking with a friend yesterday. Somehow, we got on the subject of the chip dip. Only to find out that recently on the local news in Ohio that there is a creamery that for a limited time is making or made Lawsons Chip Dip flavored ice cream and it also comes with a small bag of potato chips when you purchase it. What do you think of that? I just can't even imagine the tangy chip dip flavor created into an ice cream. Now, if you want to try it for yourself you would have to go to their 5 locations located in the Akron/Canton region in Ohio. If I may suggest calling first to see if they are still making it.

If it is a hit with ice cream lovers, you know what I would then do. I would market it and pitch it to Circle K stores since they already at some locations carry the original Lawsons Chip Dip. Oddly enough in the recent past I have been able to purchase the dip and take it with me when visiting one of my family members that like the taste of the dip.

The name of the creamery in Ohio that is making the ice cream is Pav's Creamery. Looks like the possible main location is located in Akron, Ohio. They even have a location in Bath, Ohio. Remember how I shared before how I was miraculously healed in Bath, Ohio. You would probably have to search my blog entries to read about that. There was a time when I would fly into the Akron/Canton Airport and rent a car to drive about 1.5 hour away since it was cheaper to fly in and out as opposed to the Cleveland Hopkins Airport. I would intentionally slow down or if time permitted, I would stop at the rest area off of the highway where I was healed when very much so in severe pain while heading back home to where I lived in Ohio one day. I remember pulling into that rest area and as I was exiting it, I literally screamed out in my car Jesus Help Me and He did. The excruciating uncomfortable pain lifted, and I was able to drive home just fine.

Yes, I do report about a lot of flim flam ministries today that fake miracles and healings as they are being exposed but please do not lose heart people. Jesus does heal and do not become jaded by flim flams out there when there are legitimate healings that still do exist. Hum, maybe I need to make a trip back home and intentionally land in Akron/Canton to re-visit the place of my miracle and possibly get some ice cream while in the area even though I am not a big ice cream fan per say.

OMG, did you see recently in church news about the arrest of the false Apostle and it is now coming out how Vicki Yohe was somehow involved allegedly with this man. I used to love to hear Vicki sing when she would be on TBN and even on their praise a thons also. Well, when I still resided in Ohio, I saw she was going to be ministering @ a small church in Sandusky area, and I went to the church service. Now that was years ago. I remember this very clearly because I was training in deliverance ministry at the time and found this a bit odd that a minister would partake in this. I did not participate though and sat back and observed it for a bit then left the church service to head back home. This woman was gifted in singing in my opinion she truly was. I will try to find one of her songs and share it on this blog entry.

At the front of the church, they asked for everyone to gather around her and lay hands on her and pray for her. Total strangers that you didn't even know or know their walk with the Lord laying hands on you with prayer. What about the transfer of some not so good spirits happening? I think that way with caution for I was already being trained in caution of whom lays hands on you and even whom you lay hands on to pray for. I did not feel an unction that day to come forward to pray for her. This church did not know who I was and my walk with the Lord. I wonder if others not known to that particular church came forth to pray for Vicky maybe because they were fans of hers.

I remember leaving that church and saying to myself how vulnerable to just allow anyone to lay hands on you and pray for her. Now, you could choose to believe this or not but 1 day while in prayer Holy Spirit showed me something and I even gave it a title to look out for this sort of spirit while doing deliverance ministry if something would arise during the ministry that would pertain to this. You will probably not find this listed under spirit lists to be cast out in Jesus' name but if I was ministering with someone and I might ask a question and if it fit the situation I went after and cast out the spirit of Christian Charismatic Word Curses. This is how it was explained to me ... a person who prays for you are their heart is either not right with you or with God then they may have good outward intentions while praying for you at an altar but in reality, that very (oh it sounds good prayer while they are praying it) prayer now becomes a word curse spoken over you. I am telling you to please be cautious as to whom you lay hands on to pray for or those you allow to lay hands on to pray for you. I believe in the transfer of non-good spirits to one, especially one moving in the ways and things of God. What better opportunity for a false one praying over you to hinder the mighty move of God flowing through you.

Hum, I am thinking out loud now, but do you think someone laid hands on her that day and this may have contributed to the downward events in her very life. I do not have the answer to that, just my thoughts thinking out loud possibility. Lesson learned in all of this ... truly seek Holy Spirit when laying hands on one for prayer, He truly will show you the very one to pray for in any situation. Be in tune with Him and He will never lead you wrongly. If there is a call within a church for people to come up and pray with people, then He will truly highlight the one you are to pray for, or He will not show you anyone at times and just keep your trust in Him okay. Even the reverse also, He will show you who can pray for you also. I have stood next to someone in a church and did not know them and I would graciously say I was okay and didn't need prayer in that particular moment. I would also at times allow one to pray for me. Oh, also take caution when a church wants everyone to grab hands with the person next to you throughout the church. It sort of looks like a big chain link because people connect from rows also. So, yes, there may be good, God-fearing people you are connected with in that chain link but what about others not necessarily walking with God? You just opened yourself up to spirits maybe not so good flowing through the human hands held together in the church chain link. Do not be afraid to not participate in the likes at a church okay. This looks like the video was from a Daystar event.

Visited The Church That Created The Prayer Lap Quilts For Me To Give As Gifts. Marshalls, TJ Maxx Are You Trying To Pull A Swift 1 On The Consumer?

Yesterday was the day I visited the church for their Sunday service. They are a lovely community. They actually have a communion kneeling rail around the altar. They make it known that all are welcome to receive communion in their church. I did not feel led to participate since I am not a member of their church. I went to make a 5.00 donation towards the prayer quilt ministry. They had a yard sale at the church, and they updated me that it raised over 10K which the money will go towards youth ministry. I saw the pastor that bakes the bread for the farm market, and he asked me if I would like a piece of the bread left over from communion that he bakes. I declined at first because I already have tasted his bread before and I know it is good, until he told me this bread is different than the other ones, he bakes this for their communion. It was very good. What a pastor that has a heart to serve the people and a portion of his serving is apparently cooking also.

One of the parishioners said how he baked a ham the day before and it was delicious. Apparently, those that shopped at the yard sale also had the opportunity for a small donation to order a dinner and enjoy it and a part of that meal was baked ham. I was able to follow along in their church service with a bulletin handed out which pretty much guides one in the service along with the songs sung during the service. So thankful for the days in which I was in a (back then it was called Yugoslavia) folk group in which I played a prim instrument. With learning to play that instrument we were also instructed on how to read sheet music, so I was able to follow along with having knowledge in reading sheet music to carry the tune of the songs sung. I must admit though, of the 3 things we performed in the folk group: singing foreign language songs, dancing folk dances and playing the instrument for instrumental ensembles. My least favorite of the 3 was playing that stringed instrument (it reminds one of a smaller version maybe of a mandolin.) During practices we were able to sit down and use a music stand to learn the songs. Performances were a different story though. We were expected to have the song/music memorized and we stood in uniform type of protocol, and we were not supposed to look down @ our fingers while playing the instrument. I think that was a lot for kids to hold up that standard, but we did anyhow. My most favorite was the dancing and choreography of the folk dances. Wow, I guess that sort of took me on a bit of a rabbit trail with explaining how I knew how to read sheet music. You know, in 1 of my bibles one day I woke up with a song playing inside of me. You will see in this very bible the words to that song, and I even drew the music bar graph with the notes the way I heard the song playing inside of me. I wonder if anything will ever come of that simple song in the future or was it just a song I have sung for the Lord that day?

I am seated next to our music instructor on the 3rd row. She was one of the kindest instructors I recall having while in the folk group. I will share that I was able to travel and see parts of our wonderful country USA while performing with this group. Even our 1976 celebration we all were in the former Yugoslavia for our national gathering that year. We stayed @ Hotel Intercontinental in Zagreb and of all people you would ever think of staying @ the same hotel while we were there, The Rolling Stones, imagine that. I met Billy Preston oddly enough @ that very hotel. I had no clue who he was at the time until someone told me afterwards. I wonder what the Rolling Stones must have thought about all these Croatian folk groups from the USA staying where they stayed @ the hotel? Makes one wonder huh.

Marshalls you are trying to pull a fast one in my opinion on the savvy shopper consumer. I noticed a pattern while shopping the past few days. I must admit I have not gone to TJ Maxx yet to see if they followed through also. Come on now, increasing your nail polish from 4.99 to 5.99. I looked at my bottles of OPI nail polish and they appear to show made in the USA so what is your reasoning behind increasing their sale price? You cannot even try to use the excuse of tariffs being the reason of increased pricing. Come on now, products made in the USA should not in theory be increasing in pricing, should they? I guess my impulse buying for nail polish OPI brand may just have to be curtailed for now. How do you explain 1 whole dollar increase when the product is made here and not being shipped in from out of the country. Buyer beware is all I can say at this time.

i Have Been Enjoying My Bible Study Daily Reading The Book Of Job.

I have found this deep dive reading of the Book of Job inspiring. You may say to yourself, with so much happening in the life of Job how can one find it inspiring. That is a simple question to answer. Holy Spirit nudged me at the start of reading 1 chapter a day in Job to conclude each day with reading chapter 42, the 2nd portion of the chapter of how everything was restored to Job.

I am just guessing but just maybe I was to balance out daily the things happening in his life with also being reminded of how the end concluded in this chapter, RESTORATION and then some. It fascinates me how the 3 daughters he had after the 3 were taken away in the beginning of this book states how they were "Nowhere in the whole country could be found women who were as beautiful as Job's daughters." You know why that fascinates me. There were no Botox/facelifts/plastic surgery/weight loss surgeries, pills or even shots back then and they were known as the not 1 or 2 but all 3 daughters that's beauty stood out to be recognized in that category for the entire country. Does that not also intrigue you?

So, they never state how old Job was when he died but just that at a very old age Job died. So, after what he endured and then the restoration happens in his life it states, "Job lived 140 years after this. He saw his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren." Surely one can find hope in this book in the bible. May I suggest if you are so lead/inclined to do a daily chapter read in this book of the bible to then balance it out by concluding that day's bible reading with chapter 42 so as to find hope. When you look at what he is going through in his life, even with questions he has and having to deal with the not so positive friends in his life, if he could have only turned a few pages ahead to find out what restoration in his life would be like maybe he could see hope in the midst of it all. See how our God is ever faithful, and it was Job operating even in the midst of this with faith to believe God still was with him. Doesn't that fascinate you also. It amazes me how 1 does the study and then somewhere down the line if someone reads this blog entry and then tries preaching on this subject matter with the experience I am having. Go figure. There are some out there that don't want to put the work and effort in the study of their bible and so they take the easy way-out by searching other's experiences and then using them to profit themselves. Gues what, God is watching, and He is faithful and not only a loving but a just God.

After reading early this morning, I then wanted more of the word of God in my bible and Holy Spirit gently nudged me to read after closing my bible and opening it to a page to read and this is what I read. Are you ready to hear the word of God in the bible? Matthew 17 when Moses and Elijah appear with Jesus as Peter, James and John were up a high mountain. Think about this in reality if you may ... when one sees a mountain don't you usually see a peak or point at the top of the mountain when looking at it from a below perspective. Point being when you reach the top of the mountain there is not much space up there is there, if there is a mountain peak and you are at the top. With that thought in mind then I would imagine there was not much space up there for the 3 disciples to fall out of being terrified when they heard a voice come out of the clouds and said, "This is my Son, whom I love and with whom I am pleased. Listen to him!"

So, if the disciples who were with Jesus were terrified by hearing the voice of God speaking to them,  and they fell to the ground facedown then how can we have the so called many going to heaven all the time and hearing the audible voice of God and they are not struck with terror and falling facedown to the ground? Makes one wonder if they are making these things up, they seem to be sharing and profiting off of it also. Be very cautious with whom you are allowing to speak into your life. Extra cautious as to making donations to ministries of this kind also. I was taught many years ago that when you plant a monetary seed offering into a ministry you are then under that covering somehow. Meaning, if there is lying and deception/sin in that ministry you are under that same sort of junk also. Along with the flip side also of good ministries that are upright and blessing the body of Christ. Be very cautious with whom you align yourself when it comes to a ministry okay. There are some pretty good city slickers/con artists in the guise of a minister or ministry out there and bit by bit the covering is coming off and they are being exposed so as to not hurt the body of Christ. If you have been caught in that web, then repent and ask forgiveness from God and move forward.

You know, as I am reading my bible and noticing a few notes I would write in the margins of my bible. I am going and marking through them with a pen because things like what I recently notated are false doctrine teachings I picked up somewhere along the line. Just today I stumbled upon 1 of them in which I notated in a margin of all places in Matthew 18, under the section dealing with believers when they do wrong. This is what I wrote 6/1/01 "Money thou art loosed & money thou art loosed in my life, money cometh to me now." How gullible I must have been back then, better yet how trusting I was of other messages back then.
