Welcome Readers!


"Hello" to all my regular readers and those who are here for the first time!
I hope that this blog enlightens and encourages those who read it but I also hope that it will wake up those who have been asleep to the clock that is ticking within our beautiful nation and within the body of Christ. It is my goal to glorify our Lord and share the Truth with anyone who will listen!
I pray that the Lord will give you strength and courage each day to do His will and to glorify Him. It seems to be getting harder and harder these days to keep our heads above water, but He does promise us that He will not allow the waters to overtake us! Praise Him for that promise!

Thank you!

      This will be short but sweet. I encouraged you to go vote in my last post. It seemed as though we were on a precipice, and it wasn't certain if the rock was going to give away or stand firm. Thanks to everyone who voted for morality and God's Word, it stood firm. Does this mean it is over? Not at all!! Now it is just the beginning. It is time to take a big deep breath and praise God for the grace and mercy He has shown us. It is time to get on our knees in prayer and seek His will and to ask for direction. Now is not the time to relax and coast. We know that His return is imminent, and we have work to do. 

     I do believe that times may get worse before they get better. And even if that isn't the case, it will take time to start seeing improvement. We need to stay the course. Get involved in your communities, school boards, local governments. Share with those in need and continue to show the love of Jesus. Spend more time in prayer, spend more time in the Word. 

     In my Bible Study (BSF), we are studying the book of Revelation this year. We are in chapter 5 where John is weeping because there appears to be none worthy of opening the scroll. I wondered "why is he weeping?" It was mentioned to me that maybe he was weeping because he wanted so dearly to know what God had to say on that scroll but with no one worthy he would not be able to know what God wanted to share. Then the question was asked of me, "Would you weep over not knowing what God had to say?  Would you weep if you didn't have the Bible?" Wow. That was a hard hitter. Then an even harder question was asked of me, "How will I feel if in heaven God shows me all of the missed opportunities that I had to share His Truth but didn't take them?" Great questions. Hard answers. 

     As Americans, we are so busy just doing our thing, but some day we will see that doing our thing was such a waste of time. Doing God's things is where we should be focused. I do want to thank all of you who voted, regardless of who you voted for, you took your privilege and responsibility seriously. And I want to thank the Lord God Almighty for His grace on our nation and His mercy in my life.  AMEN

The Beginning ... or the beginning of the end?

 WOW!!! Has it been a while! 

     So much has happened since 2020! That is that last time that I actually spent time here. For which, I am very sorry. 

     Life has been an adventure hasn't it? We survived COVID and now we will hopefully survive the election. But in all of the trials of the last 4 years, God has been faithful. I have seen a few come to Christ, and a few go home. I have seen marriages and births and life goes on. Summer, Fall, Winter and Summer seem to pass and the world just gets darker. BUT ... God has a plan!

     My husband and I voted early today. It was our first time, early, I mean. There was an amazing turnout! The lady that verified my ID (I live in Idaho, LOL) said that over 1400 turned out yesterday and that was day one! Praise God! Yesterday was a pretty cold and dreary day too. GO IDAHO! Anyhow, it was a good feeling to be doing our part. God does instruct us to get involved. So we should be obedient to that calling. There is still time. If you have not voted, PLEASE vote. It is our duty. Not only as a Christian, but as a citizen of the United States of America.   

     Well, the title of this post means I have more to say than just "Go Vote". I do feel very strongly that is could be the beginning of the end. Or maybe even the middle of the end, that the election from 2020 started. It truly is all up to God Almighty. Whether we believe it or not, He has a plan. If it ends up being a reprieve, Praise God. We have more time to give out the Gospel!  If it ends up being the nail in the coffin, then we had better get busy!! Actually, either way, we had better get busy! Four years goes by SO fast. Seriously, look how long it has been since I posted last! LOL!! Anyhow, to think that America will survive another four years of communist dictatorship is foolishness. It may not be too long before we don't have the freedom to share our beliefs and to give out tracts. 

     Whether it be the beginning of a revival OR the beginning of the end, the Biblical Truth is the same: Tell someone about Jesus!! Throw them a life preserver! Have the confidence that when you stand before the living and True God, our Lord and Savior Jesus, that you did everything you could to offer others the gift of Eternal Life. This IS the Great Commission. Now go VOTE and while you stand in line, tell someone about Jesus!
