“What A little Child Shall Lead Them”
Yesterday I posted on my blog the wisdom of Noah who built the Ark. He used a dove to let him know when it was safe to go out of the Ark. Maybe Noah could give our scientist of today a lesson or two. However, is it the lack of knowledge our modern day scientist scramble with today, or is it a greater knowledge on how to depopulate the world? The latter is definitely what is happening. My own prediction is within a short time the world population will be less by billions than it is now. I read in the bible that before the end of time one-third of the world's population will be destroyed at one time. Revelation 9, verse 15. I do believe we are close to that great, and notable day. I do not expect another “Noah,” miracle to happen. But in other ways I believe God is still giving wisdom to humble, God fearing, believing, Christians who could be used even like the little dove of Noah's time. When God says one-third of the world's population will be destroyed at one time, only a fool would not believe it. God already knows how many fools will be destroyed. He already knows how He will make it happen. The scientist of today have already been given the formula. I believer that is why the evil, liar's who have already been caught time, and time again deceiving the people, are getting away with it. God's plan will happen regardless of the attempts to stop it.
Why, you may ask, would God do such a terrible thing. Because He is not going to always allow people to abuse His Holy Spirit by living ungodly lives forever. The disgrace people have caused God will soon be paid for. When people say to me. Oh we are living in a different time now. Everyone is doing it. I say to them but that is why we are living in a different time with murderers, being rewarded for killing good people. Yes, times are different, but Who helped it become so evil? The very ones who were taught against those, “everyone is doing it things.” I believe that includes those who accepted the “everyone is doing it ways.” Those who taught their children not to live ungodly lives, but somehow accepted it when their children ignored that teaching. We can still love our children, but if they choose to disown us because we will not accept their ungodly ways, then we must let them be ruled by The Almighty Father. We are no longer a loving parent to them. It was their choice to leave us.

“What About A Bird messenger”
Does the wisdom of Noah in Old Testament days apply to Saints of God in New Testament times? I say to you yes it does, and even more. When God stopped the rain the water began to go down, and after one hundred and fifty days the boat came to rest on the top of a mountain in the Ararat range. After forty days more Noah opened a window and sent out a raven. It did not come back but kept flying around until the water was completely gone. Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the water had gone down. The dove flew back to the boat, and Noah reached out and took it in. He waited another seven days then sent the same dove out again. It returned to him in the evening with a fresh olive leaf in it's beak. Noah knew that the water had gone down more, so he waited another seven days and sent the same dove out again. This time the dove did not return, Genesis 8-12. God said to Noah go out with your family, and the animals so they can reproduce and cover the earth.
May I ask how long has it been since you have heard a sermon preached on Noah, and The Ark? I dare say most of our younger generation have never heard a sermon preached on it. Yes they have see movies, or read story books which only give a fairy-tale-like version of it, but have never heard the Holy Spirit's version of it. Who can we blame for our children, and grandchildren living the life of a way faring son? They do hear about the forgiveness of the father to his way-faring son, but how about the awful circumstances that happened while away faring? There are circumstances to every mistake that one makes. We live with our past even though The Heavenly Father forgives us. The evil seed that has been growing for hundreds of years are overtaking the good seeds by one hundred to one. Why were good seeds stopped being planted? Mom, and Dad, can you answer that? The liberal left that's being dealt with today is an example of upbringing by evil parents. Who will answer for the deadly sins of modern behaved believers that so many proudly possess? Sure we get criticized for being old fashioned, even called delusional, but does that give us an excuse to avoid God's command to us? There is no common ground, either it's God's way or no way. I'm not saying I, or anyone else is always right, but surly there are still enough Godly people left to teach the bible in it's entirety. God is not just a God of love, He is a Judge of the whole world.
God Bless

“The Dove Delivered A Message”
1 John, 4-14. And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent his son to be the Saviour of the world. 15, Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 16, And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
Psalms 26,-12.
JUDGE me, O Lord; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the Lord; therefore I shall not slide. 2, Examine me, O Lord, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. 3. For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth. I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. 5. I have hated the congregation of evil doers; and will not sit with the wicked. 6. I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Lord: 7. That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all wondrous works. 8. Lord I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth. 9. Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men: 10. In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes. 11. But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful into me. 12. My feet standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord.
It is my pleasure today to write another message from God by King David. I may have a lot of unfinished homework that I did not turn in, but it is not to late to play catch-up. The inspired Word of God is always effective in some way or another. We will not fail the test if we put our heart into it. If we have been given an assignment we best do it with all our heart, and soul.. God's Word does not return unto Him void. If for some reason this message did not reach the intended representant It has still been delivered. The messenger is not failing to do what they were assigned to do. Like the author of the song, “Amazing Grace,” I believe in writing what is on your heart. That song writer had been left without one member of his family, after an terrific accident, but he still wrote about God's amazing grace. If I should be put in such a place as that songwriter, I will still sing Amazing Grace. I trust my message will detour anything of disaster that might lie ahead for who ever may be needing it. Sowing seeds of faith is a Christian's job. Lord please help my harvest to be bountiful.
God Bless

“A Serious Matter”
Today has made me more positive that spring is not far away. I awoke this morning to 6 below 0 weather, but by 10 a m it was already 10 above. The snow began to melt, and I was a new person by noon. At this time 3 o'clock p m, the temperature is 36 degree. The sun has shown brightly all day. However, on my way home from work today I saw piles of snow 15 to 20 feet high, It will take some time for all of that to melt. We do have a great group of snow plow workers here, and they are always quick to clean the streets. I stocked up again on groceries, but the shelves were near all empty. Others must have beat me to the store. I think there were more stocker's putting up goods as fast as they could, than customers grabbing it off the shelf. I think America is outgrowing her demand to serve her people well. As far as I can see things looks pretty rough. The Almighty God is our only hope. I have no doubt but what He will handle the situation well. I still sing myself to sleep every night. How I love those good old songs we sang as a child. I know many of them by heart. They tell a story that modern chatter can not compare. Give me that old time religion.
Is anyone besides me trying to find bible answers to what is going on in the would today? World wide people are wearing face masks, and I am so disturbed about it. I have never read anything in the bible about such a thing as this ever coming to pass. Yet this is too big to not pay attention to it. Have we gotten so far away from God that He is not using prophesy to talk to His people anymore? To me this is something that The Holy Spirit should be focusing on at every Church meeting. Where are the messengers of God anymore? Why are they silent? I'm not one to believe in going on the news media and listening to preachers whom are not getting their prophesy correct. I believe this should come from the local church. I also know that many spirit filled Saints in the local churches are not always proper in prophesying God's message, but the body of Jesus believers usually can tell the difference. I do believe God's will would be for people to be more open in waiting for Him to speak to them. I will be the first to admit that I would rather God use someone else to demonstrate His powerful presence. But I have been the anointed one before when I had no intentions of it in the least. It is an awesome feeling, but one must be called for that purpose. I really don't feel like I have been that reluctant, but have not felt that calling in many years. What if we all gave more awareness of the need to be informed. I am just in wonder, and hope someone else wonders too.

“Boys Buried Alive”
Sure enough it happened. I have a large snowdrift in my front yard, and three little boys just now ran jumping into it, and burying up clear to their heads. I was on the phone, and couldn't take a picture, but it was so funny. The snow is like powder, and is blowing like crazy. It hasn't been over 10 degree all day. I am too old to appreciate this kind of weather anymore. However, I know it is appreciated by most everyone. The ground has been too dry to push the shovel into to make a hole deep enough to plant some tulips. When this snow melts we should be seeing some green grass soon. Then the yard work begins. It takes lots of hard work to keep two big yards mowed, trimmed, and watered. I have to hire most of it done. Even then there is much work that I have to do myself. Flower beds can be a lot of trouble. Weeds just grow with the flowers, and have to be pulled out daily. I love tending the flowers, but cannot do much at one time anymore. The chopping out wild grass, and pulling up volunteer flower growth is too much for my weak heart to handle. Then the large, heavy rocks that have always been a part of my flower garden are getting heaver every year. So what, I'm ready to try it again especially since my daughter-in-law and son did so much to prepare things for spring weather when they were here Christmas. It happened to be summer-like weather, and they did a lot of cleaning up.
The weather was too bad for me to take food to my son's house today. He told me not to try and get over there. Now it looks as though it may be as bad tomorrow as it was today. My food bank is o k, but I don't know about his. It all depends on how long this bad weather lasts. I thank God for warm homes, and never failing electricity. Television, and computers, I Phones, and good neighbors are priceless during these times. I have two new books that were given me as presents, but since my eyes are so bad I can't enjoy reading anymore. I do manage to read one chapter of the bible every night, but that is about all. I have put off cataract surgery about as long as I can. Living in a far distance from eye surgery doctors makes it very inconvenient to get done. I do very well with everything except reading much at a time. Like my poor hearing I have learned to live with my poor eyesight. It's not that bad for my age.

“What Will Your Answer Be”
It's been very cold all day today. The highest it's been today is 16 degree with it starting to drop lower now. We got some snow last night, but not much. I canceled my trip to the grocery store, and cooked a big pot of ham hock, and beans. I also made a pot of chili. I have to make sure my son, Chuck, has enough to eat in case the weather stays bad several days. I can make it to his house tomorrow, but no where else will I be going. The chocolate chip cookies I made yesterday will be the only dessert we will have. A pan of cornbread is all I like having everything ready to go. Oops, I just remembered I don't have any eggs. That's alright because I have cornbread in the freezer. So glad there's always a back-up plan. I read where church services have been canceled for this evening. I think that is a good idea. I just rescheduled a Dr's. Appoint in Amarillo. In time we will be enjoying nice weather again.
Like I have known about this bad weather coming since yesterday, and embraced for it, I am also doing my best to embrace for another drastic war with Russia. Unless God is not willing for it to happen, we are sure to be engaged in such a deadly war very soon. In my opinion God is not near through punishing the disgusting people who have ignored Him like a dead rattlesnake. I believe this is a long time punishment phase that our Merciful God has put off far too long. He is angry now to the limit. No one knows the future, but according to the Holy Bible, God is not going to let evil people continue to go unpunished. How could anyone say God has not be merciful enough when this Country has made Sodom, and Gomorrah look like Sainthood? So many sleazy, corrupt, smart-aleck idiots have put God to the test. They deserve what they will be getting. I feel sorry for them, but I am agreeing with God when He says enough is enough. Murders, child molesters, same sex lovers, body ink injected trash marks, gender changers, unmarried sex performers, and the list goes no and on. I am sorry to disagree with those who say everything is alright because Jesus came to earth to do away with sin, so everything is now just fine. I hope I have never been guilty of making anyone believe that. I would rather be hated by idiots, than loved by them. I am sure that these kind of remarks are targets of kill, but I truly believe all Christians have a duty to spread the Gospel of Christ. He did not approve with any of the things I have mentioned, plus a lot more I didn't mention. Look out for a great awaking.
God Bless

“It's All About Tomorrow”
Here I sit in my warm cozy home waiting for the snow to start. The weather man predicted hazardous weather conditions, with several inches of snow. We need some moister, but I prefer rain. Ice and sleet are suppose to be coming our way soon. I plan to stay inside till all is clear, and warmer. I had to help my son today get his place cleaned up, and food to last several days. The weather was fine till I got back home. After checking on a friend in another town, it was past time for me to write my blog. I do not have a lot to talk about, but do have a lot to be thankful for. My friend had been sick for three days, but was feeling well today. As soon as I finish this blog I will be making a big batch of chocolate chip cookies. Eating goodies and drinking hot chocolate, and coffee is what I do best when I'm home bound. Truly it was a blessing to have had four nice days of 64 degree weather before today. We are so fortunate in this part of the country to have mostly mild winters. I am satisfied with the mixture we have of nice, and not so nice.
Tomorrow would have been my husband and I 72 anniversary. On February 2, 1950 we were married in Elk City, Oklahoma. He has been departed from me for nine years, but still lives in my heart. Until he drew his last breath he was telling me how much he loved me. Those words are etched on my heart. I do not know what the future holds, but I know who holds the future. I feel sure that someday we will understand what life on earth was all about. I trust I am fulfilling the plan God had for me. That is my hearts desire. Sometimes we grope around like in darkness, not knowing what to do, but soon the light starts shinning on us again. It is then that we know we are still on the right path. Jesus is the Light of the World. In Him there is no darkness. I love to tell His story.
So now I'm off to the kitchen to make my earthly. daily bread. The flesh, and blood body must eat, drink, and be merry. When the spirit leaves this body you can do with it what you wish. Again I say TRUST IN THE LORD.
God Bless
