  It has been a whirlwind of activities, cold snaps and death. We lost Pepper, our kitty, on December 27, 22. We aren't exactly sure why or what happened. So, this last week has been a struggle. God has been showing me to rejoice during this time and points to Paul's word in Philippians 4:11, "not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content." God has also been revealing that during this circumstance, I am to stay steadfast and " strong and courageous ." In 2 Timothy 4, Paul speaks to his suffering and how " the Lord stood at [his] side and gave [him] strength ." Just as Jesus was fully man and fully God, the Bible is both a divine and human book. With Almighty God as its Originator, it is completely true, without error in its original form, and thoroughly trustworthy.  Feed on God's word during every high and every low! 2 Timothy 3:16-17 says, "all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and i...

Ephesians 5:1,2 WALK IN LOVE "Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma." How many of us grew up watching TV? *Raises hand* It wasn't out of our parents fault of allowing it, but that it was just something we all just did. We had Friday movie night or we had those nightly sitcoms that we all watched together as a family, and of course those late night programs where your parents allowed you to stay up and watch TV but little did they know that it was MTV and their gross programing.  And those commercials!?! How many of us saw those commercials where it was "call this 1800 number and you can have a night of fun with a woman on the other end..." Oh yes, all those commercials that only aired when you weren't supposed to be up watching them, or calling those numbers.  Now sex is always in front of us, through HBO stuff and E...

In high school, I dated. I was dumped a few times and man, that sucked. The pain and trauma that comes from being dumped isn't fun. It even plays a major factor, I believe, on our human ability to love. Do we even know what it means to love? Do we know how to receive love? Or give it? Take a stroll down "Love Trail Lane" with me and see what the Father has to say! Ephesians 3:14-21 "For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height - to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceeding...

I dreamed that Trump was infiltrating a theatrical production. It was an extremely important massive production, similar to a Cecil B DeMille scale. There were three scenes: Scene 1:   In a small shop or costume room, hidden from anyone, Trump and two other people (I think were men) took some costumes. Scene 2:   I was in the audience of a massive theater. As I watched the huge stage, Trump and the other two men had on these gorgeous floor length scarlet robes, and to get to the designated place they had to climb these massive stairs. As I watched, they, in full view of everyone else, slipped into position even though they weren’t considered part of the acknowle...
