I just returned from the outskirts of heaven. Nancy Reagan’s funeral was certainly a true atmosphere of heaven. Angelic voices and music along with a selection of bible scriptures most eloquently expressed, moved my heart to tears. “Nancy humor,” and her shocking remarks of blunt self-esteem made the attending guest laugh. Her grace mixed with sincere feelings of dislike for certain people made her a distinctively honest character. Two of the songs she chose to have sung at her funeral made me feel closer to Nancy than anything else, “The Battle Hymn of the Republic,” and “Amazing Grace.” This made me feel more connected with her than any other aspect of her life. I share the joy with Nancy as she is now lying next to the love of her life. “Together in life, together in death.” And all of those who spoke believe, “together in heaven.” God bless her children, and God bless America.

"Old Testament History Being -Lived Again"
This beautiful Sunday morning the crocus are still showing their joy. They just keep bursting out blooms. I am happy to be surrounded with lively flowers and fruit blossoms. I am reminded that where I live is still blessed country. No sign of bombs having been dropped on us, or soldiers lined up on our streets. There are signs of people moving in instead of people moving out. New buildings are going up, and new hope is all around us. I urge everyone who lives here in Perryton, Texas to raise a hand and praise our God for His love and mercy. Many people can’t feel the hope for our country as I do, but God has not left us yet. I believe it matters to Him whether we recognize His great power, and trust Him, through all the evil that’s going on right before our eyes. In all the years of my life I have never seen such evil. Maybe it’s just because it’s moving into our own neighborhoods. As I said, not here yet, but not far away. I have only one hope of making America great again, and that is if Donald Trump can get elected to the presidency. All the others are just going to add fuel to the fire, which is blazing hot. Donald will not back off from tough decisions. That is what we need, a fearless, God-trusting man who will wear the Armour and face the giant. He is already doing that. He is a target for feeble-minded shooters coming from every direction. He just makes them more angry, and that is what the majority of the people want. God has always protected His people who trust Him. It’s those who say they trust Him, but their lives don’t show it, those are the ones who will be defeated. Donald Trump is like the poor wise man who saved a city from a great king who came to take it. Ecclesiastes 9:15. Except Donald Trump is not a poor man, his wisdom has made him rich. His wisdom will also save America, if people will let God have His way. Religious fanatics will be destroyed along with the non-religious fanatics, Satan worshippers, if you will. Unwise judges, I call them. Pretending themselves to be perfect. How foolish can you get? They are listening to the bible illiterates, and the unwise, false bible profits. Sum are rich, but not wise. They knew how to land a successful business, but are unable to meet the challenges of today’s robbers. They are in danger of losing it all. Bring it on, ye unsophisticated, naïve, self-righteous fighters. You are facing the giant you really don’t recognize. Your proper goodness, and mannerism will not kill this “wise ole life of knowledge.” Shoot away.
God Bless

"Wake Up To Spring"
As much as I love, and enjoy my yard with so many beautiful flowers I have to admit I have been neglecting them so far. This entire week I have been glued to the television set. I believe our country is on the verge of collapse. I am watching things coming from the mouths of would-be leaders that are making me fear what is ahead for America. It’s totally different when you see, and hear, with your own eyes, and ears, some of the evil things that dominates the mainstream media versus reading about it. One television host made it clear last night after the GOP debate that we are living in different times than a few years ago. What does that mean? Are we living in the proximity of hell? It almost sounds like it sometimes. Then when we think about it this world has always been wicked. That is why God sent His son, Jesus, to save those who would believe on Him. Most of us have been sheltered from much of the evil until now since television has become so prominent. We can watch it at the kitchen sink, in our living rooms, in our beds, or while doing our office work. I have always been an observer from watching a bug crawling on the ground, to following jets flying high in the sky as long as I can see them. I like to make assumptions, since that is part of who I am. However, I think that is part of every ones make-up. There was a time when I never looked up from my work for eight hours a day. Then I came home to cook, wash clothes, help get the children’s home work, get everyone bathed and in bed. The same routine was followed the next day. My husband was good to help me. I doubt that I could have told you who the U.S. president was at that time. Since my days of retirement I have become more acquainted with the presidents, the senators, the representatives, and many, many more people who turn this world up side down every day. I am glad to be an outsider looking in. Of course I am one of the voters who help people to represent me. Yes I am an insider to my small group of friends, who like me, chat and spat, and threaten to tell them off if they make me mad. I can do that on twitter and face book. No kidding, I am thankful for all the blessings I still receive daily from my Lord. I know I am not worthy, but He blesses me anyway. What I would rather do more than anything else for the rest of my life is to make people happy, and take away all pain. Thank God that day is coming for us all. Fear and doubt are two of the strongest enemies we have to deal with, but be assured that God will do anything for us that we will let Him do. If we feel distant from him, guess who moved. Time to move back.
God Bless

Jean's Comment's: "How Sweet The Sight And Sound"

"How Sweet The Sight And Sound"
This past week has made another entry of death, and/or death-like events to my troubled heart. The past four or five months have been very difficult for me to maintain my powerful faith in God. I’m sure some of you have not heard all the trials I have had to go through, but just let me say God never once left me helpless. A son, which was being put in hospice care after a two month long treatment for his serious condition of a liver disease numbered along with other health issues, is now living a normal life. I stayed by his side almost constantly while the Lord chose to heal him for now. Its true that my son is still being treated for his health problems, but my stress has become so much less, and I have began to recover myself from several body aches and pains, including heart ache caused by rejection from precious loved ones who somehow could not understand my willingness to stay by my son’s side even though I was a heart patient myself. No one understands the love of a mother until they have been put to the test themselves. My recovering son is now helping me to recover, and endure another near death situation to a loved one so dear to me that I am having much trouble dealing with it. In fact I am dealing with two such precious ones who have stood beside me for many years, even while I had open heart surgery fifteen years ago. They were also my life-savior when I was taking my husband to a doctor almost three hundred miles from home. For eight years these two angels were by my side until after the funeral of my husband. Now I need to be with them, but I am almost unsure if that is something I should wisely do. If I cannot stand the horrible stress of seeing the serious problems of these two dear ones, then I should not tempt God. If I were younger, and in good health, I would already have been there, but as it is I am waiting on an answer from God.
Today was going to be the time when a risky, second surgery would happen to one of these loved ones. Last night I desperately asked god to direct my path. Then I awoke this morning at 5:00 to see the moon shining through my bedroom window blinds. A little later I began to hear a voice, which I started to argue with. “You are to stay at home as you have told me before that you were putting this in My hands. If you are trusting Me, then let Me take care of it the way I see best.” I had to tell myself that God would give me strength even though I would have to suffer the loss if something went wrong. It is so hard for me to trust God unless I can be there. I want to fight for the recovery of both loved ones. I must, just must, let go of my selfishness. If I am left with just one-halve of my present health, then I must accept that too. After all there is a time for all to leave this old mortal body and take on a new one.
God Bless
