Hummmmm . . . .

How many of us look to our past of where America began and why we have been set apart?http://www.liberty.edu/media/1616/email/Chancellors.html Why do we as a nation look at our pocket book instead? Or to man? What happened? Where are we turning?

Aren't we supposed to look at that which is unseen? Hummmmm . . . .

A Day to remember

Today was such an encouraging day! Being pastor appreciation month has been encouraging through out. I have been amazed at some of the "Golden Apples" The Lord has given us to enjoy this month.

Cards, Encouraging words, meat, meals, hugs, chocolates, GC's, smiles, etc., etc., etc.,. Why does it touch me sooooo much? Because of serving the King of Kings for 20 years this past summer and this month I was able to reflect over all these years and I still have some cards, letters, gifts, pictures (AND SCRAPBOOKS) with many of YOUR heart strings connected to them!

From our first internship and ministry I still have special cards & picture from many of you tucked away and some of them are hidden with in my BIBLE and just this past week I have taken some of those out and reflected upon to warm my heart along with those we received this week. Today we had some great time reflecting with a family, laughing, sharing and being real - THAT is what ministry is all about. One note Kent & I read was very encouraging at a time that was needed the most. Satan is alive and a liar but God is the TRUTH that is AWESOME!
Kent also encouraged me just a couple of days ago with a song/video that he said he knew I would LOVE! He knows how much I have ALWAYS LOVED EYES and how fitting that an artist named Brandon Heath wrote "Give Me Your Eyes". It is so true How I beseech the Lord of Lords the "I AM" to allow me to always look into others eyes and to have HIS EYES for humanity.

I know that Kent and I were called into MINISTRY together and I believe that He called me when I was only a little girl by an "angel in disguise" HEBREWS 13:2 (my paraphrase) to follow him
with all my life. Not only do I give him my Eyes but my HEART that I may have His Heart and His Eyes to fulfill my calling to Him!

I have looked into many of your EYES and I know that GOD will do and is doing great things through you. He is calling YOU . . . Will you answer his call if you haven't already? Look into His eyes it is AMAZING to connect with him - BELIEVE ME!!! It is a road you'll never regret and an adventure you can never imagine that will effect you for all eternity. For today is "A DAY TO REMEMBER!"

Only One way

"He who guards his lips guards his life,but he who speaks rashly comes to ruin." Proverbs 13:3. Don't you wish that our candidates would keep this in mind. WE'RE DOOMED then aren't we!!!

My heart is so frustrated that we are so quick to be concerned with our economy, what we think about our leader and all his "errors" but where is the condition of our heart and soul compared to the "I AM", but what about our relationship with the Lord what is it truly like? I really believe with all my heart that we who claim to have a relationship with the Lord and Savior of the world need to truly be on our knees and beseeching HIM for everything we stand for. Because we will be having to make a stand that matters for all of eternity. I know I choose the road less traveled and I see it more each and every day of my short "misty" life but I will live here on earth as long as the good Lord wills. I will share the good news of Jesus Christ being the ONLY way to Heaven, despite that others think there are many different ways. There truly isn't "MANY WAYS" and if it costs me my very life than God be with me to fight to the end to take as many with me as possible to see the TRUTH sharing the depth of His love for all mankind, if they only by their free will choose to follow him. I heard him say, "Come, follow me!" and I am going to follow only him with every breath!

I know that I am one whom is very convicted to go before the thrown of the TRUE KING of KINGS every election year because I want a person who leans upon wisdom and discernment that truly matters. Absolute TRUTH - the word of GOD which is infallible and unmistakably INERRANT! How about you?

The Shack

Yikes and Hummmmm . . . .

My mind is still trying to comprehend and S - T - R - E -T - C -H with each thought. Very provoking for this little Latina mind :-/ Ha - Ha!!!

I do enjoy this book because I am also reading in Jeremiah currently and Hummmmm. Sometimes I feel like a Shack tucked deep in the Rockies, yet as free as the scene depicted. I can feel the wind, hear the bubbling brook or running river, feel the mist faintly upon my skin, and smell everything - refreshing and well not so comfortable to take.

What is your "Shack" and do you go to your "Papa"?

Fall & Harvest :-)

Have a great Day! Fall is upon us here in the Midwest (I know everywhere really) and the change of colors is just awesome! I miss the Rocky Mountains every year around this time but I will always enjoy where the Lord allows these eyes to see him and his wonders!

Wow it is always amazing to me what God does and how the season is continually changing! The seasons colors, the ages of time in every aspect of Life - His creation. I miss my dear friends who are miles away and I enjoy the ones I am able to be with now. I think of the girls and how they give me pleasure. I enjoy the moments my sweet love and I get to share with each passing moment to etch it upon my heart and my memory. I love the crisp cool air when it is brisk and yet I love it when I lift my chin and feel the faint breeze blow across my face and the other moments it blows my dark auburn hair around my face. Winter used to be my favorite season of all times because of growing up in the Rockies and LOVING SNOW however as time goes by I enjoy them all more each year. Always ready for the newness of each season as I live it and await the excitement of another day to breathe, the Lord willing, before return home to Heaven permanently.

This year 16 years ago I remember awaiting the elections of Nov and a special little girls taking her first steps, wow that was amazing and exciting and now her steps are taking her in many other directions. Where her future will take her, how to prepare and so forth. Who would have ever thought that 21 years ago Kent and I would be embarking on a fall with many new memories that would be so found?

Seasons of Fall; the rich colors of reds, oranges, yellows, golds, browns and faint splashes of green kindle in my heart the warmth of changes through the years and how new life will come. :-) Now because of my friends walk to submit her life last week. two others have decided to follow and be obedient to Christ and yield their lives because her obedience caused them to say - I too want Jesus Christ to be my Lord and Savior, I no longer want to wait. Three new lives on a day of a fall will turn over a new "leaf" by dying to themselves and become a new creation! I love IT!!!!! All in the middle of "HARVEST" season.

Remember, ". . . the Harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. . " (Mt 9:37 & Gospels) This year it has been a FULL harvest and for that I love seeing it in the newness that comes with FALL & HARVEST here in MO Town USA! Bring on the Harvest it warms my soul deeply and kindles the fresh breeze I LOVE!!!! :-)
