Time. For What?

As I have been away for quite some time.  It has dawned to me the JOY of my soul!

Another day to BREATHE
Another moment to Laugh
Another Hug

Like Ecclesiastes 3:1-11

  There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
    a time to be born and a time to die,
    a time to plant and a time to uproot,
    a time to kill and a time to heal,
    a time to tear down and a time to build,
    a time to weep and a time to laugh,
    a time to mourn and a time to dance,
    a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
    a time to embrace and at time to refrain from embracing,
    a time to search and at time to give up,
    a time to keep and a time to throw away,
    a time to tear and a time to mend,
    a time to be silent and a time to speak,
    a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.
   
What do workers gain from their toil?  I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race.  He has made everything beautiful in its time.  He has also set eternity in the human heart: yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.

When comparing the reality of life, why do we search so heard for what is so deep within us?

WORSHIP! LOVE!  We all do and want them both.

Worship to the Only One that Matters!  Jehovah.  I AM.  Alpha and Omega.   Wake up oh man,  We are sinners in need of the Perfect and only Savior.  There is only ONE God, One Savior, One Eternal Destination that we will be a part of.   Jesus Christ is the Only Way to Heaven.  He is so worth Everything.   When we get away from what the world deems "important" and of value there is Love.  There is Peace.  There is Joy.  

Sure He allows us little nuggets to pass the time away.   However, as our culture is slowly ebbing further away from what we really want - To Love and Be LOVED he is still long suffering.   The World we live in is just a temporary place.  But our true Homeland is not found here on earth.  It is in Heaven.   Heaven is only where God, Yahweh IS!

All other 'religions' are false.  Jesus Christ is the only way to live a full and rewarding life.   From the very beginning He had YOU AND ME in mind.   He Is who he said he IS!   He changes lives all over the globe!  Literally!   The ONLY way to find him is by giving your heart, soul and mind over to him.

Jeremiah says, "The heart is deceitful above all else, who can withstand it?"  Yet,  Jesus Came to give us LIFE and Give it to the full!   100% Guaranteed!

I LOVE MY JESUS and NO ONE CAN TAKE HIM AWAY FROM ME!   My LIFE IS HIS and WILL ALWAYS BE HIS!  I Promise there is TRUTH, DIFFERENCE and A SURPASSING JOY in being connected to ONLY JESUS CHRIST.  

I WILL PROFESS him in ALL that I AM!   This month - JUNE has opened my eyes!  I AM DIFFERENT, and the World may see me as a fool but I TAKE JOY in knowing My LORD, My Savior LIVES and I WILL DIE for HIM, In Him and With HIM because I BELONG TO HIM and there is FREEDOM from being connected to him that NOTHING on this earth can ever equal!  

If you want the most freeing LIFESTYLE EVER.  I would LOVE TO TALK With YOU.  

John 3:16-17  "For God so LOVED the World that HE GAVE His one and only Son, that who so ever BELIEVES in HIM, shall NOT PERISH but have everlasting life.  For God did NOT send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to SAVE THE WORLD through HIM!"  It's True!  IT'S ABSOLUTELY TRUE!!!!  TRUST ME!  I AM FREE and you can be to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Loving What I do

The Love which I have:


Come sit with me!

See me and allow my heart to beat with Yours

The Love inside deep with in:
A man Who Saved Me
A man Who Loves Me
A man that Protects Me

A Good book
Great Music
A hearty Laugh

The Smile of a Child
The squeeze of a Hand
The giggle of children
The hug unforgettable

The ability to Give
The chance to walk
The challenge to run
The arms to hold
The lap to cradle
The desire to Serve

Intimacy

Quietness

Be Still

Listen

Be Real

Smile

Hug

Touch

The carrying of a Child in the WOMB from the day of CONCEPTION
The carrying of a child as soon as birthed
The gaze of The Lord's creation

The bubble of Joy
The opportunity to Share the Gospel
That which stretches me

The commitment of a LOVER
The warmth of TRUE LOVE
The clasp of His Hand holding mine
The shoulder to lean upon in ALL Things

The seasons of Change
The Ability to DREAM
The striving point to LIVE
The perseverance to go and Do what others say can not be done
The valley
The Mountain Top
The climb in between

Ability to Choose

New Beginnings
Seasons completed
The Present as a "Present"

Singing
Dancing
Laughing

Now the Opportunity:

To Forgive
To Fly
To Be FREE
 To Learn Life is an Adventure

I am LOVING it ALL because HE GAVE IT TO ME;  TO LIVE!

Best words to say

What do You think?
What are the BEST words to SAY?

I've often wondered and contemplated that very question.   Yes.  What exactly are the Best words to say?

"I LOVE YOU!" Those very three words are so loaded.   Loaded? You ask.  Yes, packed with so much.  What is the meaning?  I Love you because . . .  I mean it.   I feel it.  I desire it.  I want it. Give me something for it.  Loaded with 'that tingling' feeling.  I desire to BE Loved.  It is so much more than that.   True Love.  WOW!  COMMITMENT to the very end.  NO MATTER WHAT!  I'll die for you, "I LOVE YOU." I'll serve you long past the moment when the 'feeling' seems lost, "I LOVE YOU!"

"I am SORRY."  Yes these three words are important.   I say it and express my apologies very sincerely.  In my/ our humanity, no one is perfect.  It is from the debts of who my character is yet being reminded just how incredibly important it is to say, "I am sorry."   It defuses so many unnecessary flare ups.   "I am sorry" because I care doesn't always come easy but is it vital for many relationships.  Next time, take a deep breath, say a prayer and say, 'I am sorry."

"I was WRONG."  ouch.   Okay so I am going to definitely date myself.  If those reading this crazy blog.  Maybe, you remember a sitcom named "Happy Days" where 'THE FONZ' really struggled with these three big ones.  Boy does humanity need a big gulp of these words to come from deep within and say them loud enough for another to even hear them.  "I was wrong" is the end of the blame shame game.  You know, I realize as time wises me up just a tad.  There is more to be learned from those who lead and confess that 'I was/am wrong' than those who are NEVER at error.   One with true character learns from their errors and grows instrumentally.  To admit when we are wrong and not blame another person simply is not a sign of weakness.  Rather it develops  strength to grow and excel.

"Please. Thank You. Excuse Me/ Pardon Me. You're Welcome."  Manners do matter.  How does one ever make a mistake when these simple words are applied to the vernacular?  Never.  Common courtesy is so priceless.  There are moments that warms the simplest of thought when those so young, learn and apply themselves.  Those whom take the time to utilize this to their own lives.  Manners. Do. Matter.  

"Will You Forgive Me, Please."   "I don't know."   For an individual to ask forgiveness or admitting that 'I don't know' is a place of humility.   However,  they are also very freeing.  Why?  Because there is no room left to carry around baggage that is not necessary to hang onto in our mind or our past.  To ask for forgiveness does leave on vulnerable.  But the 'weight upon your shoulders' is lifted.   And mankind will never know everything.  Never.  It's okay.  these are gems that can grant a new spirit of Life.  So go out and LIVE!

And sometimes the Best words are the ones that are NOT SPOKEN.  Just LISTEN.  We can not take back what we say.  How we say them.  But we can always watch what we speak and when.  Bridle the tongue is so wise.  "Whoever guards his mouth and tongue Keeps his soul from troubles"  Proverbs 21:23.

May you be BLESSED THIS WONDERFUL DAY that is called YOUR LIFE and LIVE it fully to edify and lift up those around you to Magnify the King of kings and Lord of lords.

More than a LIGHT SWITCH!

I had a great eye awaking yesterday!  You are PERFECT for "Him!"  OTOM

One Team One Mission:

Steps to Success:

Keep Is Simple Superstar!  (YOU ARE ONE! - BELIEVE IT!)

So many times so many individuals want to get it easy, Simple, quick!  But everything is more than a "Light switch" moment.   Let me say that again.  As the human culture there are so many who desire so many things. Yet the most important "things" and "people" in our lives that are EXCELLENT and worthy.  It takes work, time, effort, 'skinning our knees' and getting back up.  Any athlete knows that.  Any Musician knows that.  Any Genius understand that.  Any parent knows that.  All humanity truly knows that.  All LIFE has purpose.  Work grants joy.  Even the sluggard finds no rest and knows that.

Let me share with you.  Over the last few years and getting "older" i am realizing there is so much more to LIFE then what "others think".   It's about having a right life!

See everyone,  YES EVERYONE, desires to be LOVED!  Truly Loved.   Here, let me share.   No one wants to be 'hurt' by others.  Or hurt someone else, at least not from the start.   See i remember hearing when I was very young.  "Treat OTHERS as you want to be TREATED!"   I used to see view that articulated throughout the perimeter of a building; growing in academics.  Basics that helped excel an individual.   Morals, Ethics, Character.   That which instilled Values to the premise of our LIFE.

Where did things change?  When man kind decided to become Lazy yet want 'more'.   That is not a new philosophy by any stretch of the vernacular.  My precious time on this wonderful created globe makes me realize that YOU my friend, and myself are a Wonderful Work of a MASTERPIECE.  Not something that just 'happened' by chance.   The touch on the skin sends crazy electrodes all through the system that causes a reaction.  Why because we are human beings that are 'aware'.   For some it is a very positive reaction, while for others it is dauntingly haunting; negative.  Why?  It didn't just happen in the 'flip of a switch' - on/off quickly.  It took time.  response that created reaction.

No One Controls our destiny.
No one.  However,   our experiences are created over the coarse of  T - I - M - E!
Good Intentions.
Forgotten - lapses
However, there IS a Creator.  He is the Great I AM.   And since the beginning of time - HE WAS.  HE IS.  HE will FOREVER BE!  NO LIGHT SWITCH about that.  

Life is to short.   I LOVE many.   I have made wonderful memories with most and maybe a few bumps occasionally.  HOWEVER, I realized yesterday.  NO MORE EXCUSES!  It is time to make amends through the Love of Jesus Christ LIVING IN and THROUGH ME.   He called me back "On Teller Street".  I remember IT VIVIDLY!   I now am so thrilled because even though life is not a 'light switch' moment it is a Journey of Living for all Eternity.  Realization that Everything does matter.  TO HIM!  Only HIM!  It comes in making every effort to expand the horizons.  LOVE is not a light switch.  It is work and service with the deepest and richest rewards~!

That kind of LOVE seems impossible to our finite minds.  However, through GOD, who spoke creation into existence, Gave and Sent his ONE and ONLY SON; John3:16 & 17, to this earth because of Satan's fall.  So that that kind of LOVE can be LIVED OUT!  Matthew 20:28.  Love.  It is Searched for, yet only truly discovered to a rendering, out of our choice to follow Him; John 8:12, with a yielded heart.  T - I - M - E.  Excellence in the perfect way.  

Live you LIFE with Eager Expectation!  Is it worth it?   Yes.   Is it easy?  No.   Can everyone come? Yes.   Will everyone choose to follow?  No.    Does it cost anything?  Yes.  Is it Free?  Yes.  Will in make sense? No, not to the world.     Is it Freeing?  Yes.   Does it really Matter?  Yes.   Will it hurt? More than likely.  

It is the craziest thing I've ever done.  Ever will do.  But I have no regrets in that decision.   March 18 was the most remarkable finalizing first step I ever took.   Since that step
It has been a very rugged terrain but well worth the realization that LIFE IS WORTH ALL ETERNITY and YOU and me matter!

Mark A DIFFERENCE

Making a Difference TODAY!

You can to by participating in ENDITMOVEMENT.   What do I mean by End it?  How about seeing through the EYES of JESUS CHRIST and the horrendous slavery to children, women and men in Sex trafficking, Labor, and simply the industry that needs to END!

My heart has been heavy ever since 2008 while I was carrying our youngest child.  The data I learned left me breathless.  Absolutely taken aback.   Why?  Because I discovered Rapha House and the desire to STOP HUMAN TRAFFICKING!  Now after coming along side this NGO I realized through the determination of finding out more; the desire to MOVE!  The desire to get to come along side them some way and speak up!  Some way to make it a reality of getting involved.

After much efforts.  The trip that changed my life forever came in October 2011.  To be with the Khmer people of Cambodia!  While there I saw and heard the voice of the Lord.  My specific prayers for an individual have been taking place over 28 years.   Then the Lord, Jesus Christ allowed me the opportunity to have a Godincidence by meeting "Zeb" as we were of the same mind and spoke passionately at MLCC ( He as the Missionary and I as a Breakout teacher) about the same PASSIONS, and the same country.  He and his wife, who began Freedoms Promise has made it aware that 6,062,000 children need your help.  They are also making a difference.  Following that wonderful friendship and an accidental letter,  for the real possibility for a return trip just about took place October 2012.  However,  because of divine T - I - M - E  . . . being accepted and a submission prayer;  it fell through because of a heart being cured to follow His leading.

It is official - Return Mission Accepted: Not only is a return trip coming but My wonderful Prayer of 28 years and the vision of 2011 while on Khmer soil came to fruition.  My Best Friend, Lover of all those years felt led to "GO" and OBEDIENCE followed.   And now the serious movement the past few years is Opening the hearts of man.  END IT that arose from PASSION and Louie Giglio ENDITMOVEMENT along with others are MOVING with passion to make a serious difference.

I LOVE What the Lord has Done and is doing through those who care to make a difference.
Be Involved - It is happening all over the globe -

2 Chronicles 7:14
If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

What a Man Really Needs

What attracts you to the Man in Your Life?
What still attracts You?
Do You still put your BEST foot forward?
Does He?

I purpose that maybe this will reignite a flame that is still there and will totally uplift your Marriage.
So here is a wonderful eye awakening seven minutes to view and to enhance your relationship:
What a Man Really Needs
"And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.  Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.  Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them." Colossians 3:17-19 Therefore, Honor Him as Unto the Lord! Then answer this question; Are you treating Him the Way You want to be treated?

The Love for a Child

1998 - In Georgia I heard two cliche statements that I didn't understand in My young life.   But I remember hearing them in the September Emergency Family trip.  A woman piped up to give her two cents with these two quick statements.

"A Daughter is a Daughter All her life,
  A Sons a Son, 'til he finds a Wife." ~ Unknown

"When Children are little they step on your feet,
 When they are Grown they step on Your heart." - Unknown

However, I have figured them out, since that September.   They are so sad.  Reflecting it came to realization that  these two cliche statements don't have to be "reality" for some.  Why?  Because God is God and He is in Ultimate control.   Everyone wants to be LOVED and to LOVE OTHERS!  

Are we human? Yes.  In the flesh and Filled with sin.   I have been Learning incredible lessons to apply.   TIME IS SHORT!   Technically but a midst.  "You have made my days a mere hand breadth; the span of years is as nothing before you.  Everyone is but a breath, even those who seem secure." Psalm 39:5

Whether we are a son or a daughter we can choose to be HIS all the time.  Therefore, we can also choose to be a respectful child ALL our days.  It's a choice.  When we marry then we are two who become one flesh but still A CHILD to Honor and Respect our Parents.  Children, are a gift from God. The wonderful I AM.  And we are to be ones who Bless our earthly parents who we do see and therefore, Honor our Heavenly Father, whom we temporarily do not see.   So with the second quote, I know my feet probably stepped on Mommys' feet frequently, and sometimes others feet also.   Now that I am grown I know that I have often accidentally stepped upon another persons heart.  I have so many times have had to apologize.  I've grown to realize through time "IT'S NOT ABOUT ME!"  Therefore, it is very import for me to remember Keys.  Words that are; "Please."  "Thank You." "Excuse Me."  "I'm Sorry."  "Will you Forgive Me."  "I was Wrong."  "I LOVE YOU!"   Well I have lived a good life.  No a Great Life especially since March 18, 1984 when I accepted Jesus Christ into my life, and My heart.  Then I gave it over to him in the water of Baptism - immersion.  I know that He is teaching me to not step on another persons heart.  He has called me to be FOCUSED ON HIM.  FOCUSED TO PLEASE HIM.  FOCUSED TO SERVE HIM by being a Servant to others.  Washing their feet.

Well there are still times I need to remember to use all of those key words frequently!  Also to step aside and be the one to make the first move and follow the Lord's leading to be His Daughter ALL MY LIFE and to work on "mending others' Hearts to BLOOM in FULL BLOOM to leave an everlasting fragrant.  

My NEW CLICHE: 
 To BE  an ENCOURAGER no matter how others TREAT ME! BE A SERVANT!  And Let others KNOW I LOVE THEM, for TIME IS SHORT!

 "When children are little they step on Your feet,
                                       When they are Grown they Lift up an other's  HEART!"  ~ 'Ana-Lou'

Faith? Hope? LOVE? YES!!!!!

Do I have Faith?  Yes.
What of Hope?  Yes.
And any LOVE?  YES!

Today I read about a precious, precious little girl named "Addy".  However I want you to know that i am beseeching anyone whom reads this understands my heart to PRAY for her Parents:  Addy is a beautiful little girl who is awaiting to be LOVED.  Her Parents have chosen LIFE for her.  However, medically she is FIGHTING for her life.  When she was "12 week old" she had been diagnosed with a
cystic hygroma along with many other medical concerns that have been revealed up to the last blog read.  Her parents need many of us standing in the gaps for them.  She; "Addy" is 30 weeks along in her Mommy's womb.  Active.  Yet her Daddy and Mommy are desiring her to know she is Loved!  Their Faith - Priceless.  Hope - Unending.  JOY - real.   LOVE = ADDY IS that without question.
Her, parents affirm continually, "She is wanted and she is loved."   ~ 28 Weeks "Addalyn Lane"

See Today I was asked if I knew a certain family?  "Yes, why do you ask?"  This Grandmother, Daughter and granddaughter standing together.  Told me I needed to read this blog.  I explained that I knew this family because of a time when I needed prayer as I pondered much,  sought out Jehovah Jirah for answers to my broken heart.  And this family touched me through ANSWERED PRAYER without realizing it through a daughter, "Addy's" aunt; who was to become a very dear kindred to one of my own.

My heart broke, and just lifted many prayers on her families behalf.   I don't know exactly how they feel right now.  But I do know the part of loss, reliance on the Father and the unknown.  I pray that when "Addy" meets her Daddy and Mommy she does KNOW that they LOVE HER DEARLY and that they always have and will.   That their time together is a time to touch, as well as see one another with a connection from Heaven.    I am praying for that miracle to be Heaven sent in so many UN-Imaginable ways.    Lord, Your will be done,  But as Gideon asked, So I to ask to be so bold.  May she live her life here, on this side of Heaven?  Is it possible for your will to allow it?  Is your will for life this side of Heaven, PRAISE YOU.  Is your will for life only IN HEAVEN, PRAISE YOU for helping them here get through this time.  Then, allow Addy to meet in your presence Jesus as she plays with our "Jordan Micah".  That Jordan Micah will laugh with her while they play together while with You.  I don't know the "V"s but YOU DO!  Give all three of them YOU!  I know with out any shadow of doubt they believe in you!  I just ask, may Addalyn bring them all even closer to you.  It is in your name I pray for Addy, her Daddy and Momma, Grandparents, Uncles & Aunts and every life she touches.  In Jesus Your name I pray.  Amen and Amen.

Do I still have Faith?  YES!
Do I still possess Hope? YES!
Do I Love?  YES!

Baby be Blessed FUN

Hey my favorite fun is The ABC cards for children at Bungle House designs!BungleHouseDesigns

Chris, Did you say Revival?

Wow! I just read an amazing article from my  Brother, Chris!    pray-for-revival-or-bring-revival Revival. What?  That's right What?  Where have I been?  Missing the Mark.  Not because I didn't want revival but because my life hasn't Been REVIVAL.  Ah ha moment!

Where have I been?  Pondering Yet again.  It's been a long, hard and Beautiful Road of Faith walking, Running and falling. Now it has lately been getting up with scraped knees, elbows and hands but not out of regrets but Love and Growth that requires pruning.  That's correct - PRUNING to me in so many ways!

I miss a very special lady, more and more each day.  It took a rough, very rough road that is still tender but LOVED.  Changed is what I am because of it.  All I know, is that since October 2010 Life has been different. Hard. At times lonely.  Yet the healing in a spiritual way never expected but radically new.  Since October 2011 Another Changed part of my heart and life FREEDOM.  Ah ha moments all refresh a transformation of 2012 metamorphism!  Life has rolled by so quickly in growth spurts that have had huge marks of being a part of grafting IN to the TRUE VINE!  Rewarding beyond my comprehension, with very real growing pains.

Growth After a wonderful , a New Son-In-Love that LEADS our Princess; his Bride, Mission Trip last July with two of my Princesses,  and A Spouse who I grew to LOVE MORE over the past 28 years (twenty five years in a monogamous faithful marriage) and an Entrepreneur Business with IT WORKS! and Going to the Most Spirit filled Conference with a business that has eyes fixed, Focus and Debt Free minded.  Being with an Amazing Team.  Confessions Named, Claimed and now for VICTORY for the Glory of The Lord of lords, King of king - Jesus Christ!   Revival.  It's not about me, but starts with me because IT IS ALL ABOUT HIM!!!!!

Are you willing to be a part of Revival?  In EVERY area of Your Life?  I am!   Burn in Me Abba, Father, God, - Yahweh - I AM!  I YIELD, Jehovah Jirah, Immanuel!!!!

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. Love the LORD you God with all your heart an with all your soul and with all your strength. Deuteronomy 6:4-5
