Closer to Winter...


(this isn't the one I'm doing, this was done by someone special)

Today there is a very cold chill in the air; the sky is dark grey and perhaps we might even get some flurries. I have things around the house that need doing...a bit of laundry, a bit of straightening, and a few plants that require repotting. I've also been working on a needlepoint, Pinky, that is only about 2/3 completed (after working on it off and on for about 2 years).

(THIS is my Pinky, but I'm much further along that this
so this encourages me very much :)  
and I made some changes to the face as well
maybe I'll post a "finished" photo in a few weeks)

So I'd best get busy, there's much to get done even if I cannot get to the outside stuff I want to do....sigh...hope you all are getting ready for winter too, it won't be long!!

Autumn musings

Time of year that many “celebrate” death in the form of Halloween. Much better to truly celebrate true life in Jesus, in whom alone we can find true rest for our sin weary souls.

We here in Canada have already celebrated our Thanksgiving, although it isn’t as big a deal as it is in the States. I was surprised to find the stores still open on the Canadian Thanksgiving day.

And then there is Alice Gallagher....who continues to inflate herself by thinking her own “truth” tops all others, but that her “graciousness” extends to accepting others truths such as Hinduism as being in equal standing with her own truth.....all truth except that of those “hateful” and pesky Christians, that is....so very sad indeed, and if there ever comes a time and place for true dialogue which does not seek to vilify our Lord and Saviour, I welcome such a true discussion, but so far I see no hope of that.

Thankful of the real truth that broke me free of the many lies that pose as truths in this world, amen and amen. :) Thanks only to Jesus in Whom all real Truth is found, and in Him alone.

The Stubbornness of AntiChristian Liars


As I stated many times before on this blog, people like Alice Gallagher are self-deceived while at the same time deceiving others. Who can deny that morals have been slipping rapidly as more and more people turn away from Jesus?

The link to the article below gives some sad statistics. I know I cannot convince anyone who wants to believe their own lies rather than the plain truth of the Bible. The Truth is there, none-the-less.



Millennials Abandon Belief In God For Belief In Everything Else

Excerpts from article:

G.K. Chesterton once said, "When people stop believing in God, they don't believe in nothing -- they believe in anything." 

This has proven true time and again in history. Now, we're seeing it in America...

....Ironically, as American morals continue to slip and slide, the MarketWatch article notes that, "The majority of Americans now believe it is not necessary to believe in God to have good morals." That's according to a study released last week by the Pew Research Center.

David Wilkerson's Message

Today I posted a warning from David Wilkerson on my other blog (see side bar on the right ----> )

My heart has been very heavy lately, I sincerely hope and pray that many will heed the warnings and will be given the gift of repentance and true faith.

Our Old Maple Tree

the only photo I could find (I know I have others but too lazy to look right now)
of the maple tree we took down
...took this a few weeks ago when we noticed the wasp nest
about 25 or so feet up


Last week hubby decided to have our old maple tree cut down. She was old and every little breeze blew off branches. A couple of weeks ago we had some really strong gusts that knocked a big wasp nest right onto the spot where we often park the car close to our back door.

It took the tree guys less than two minutes to bring her down. Then they removed the branches from the main trunk and asked me if I wanted to keep the wood chips. At first I said “no” and then thought they would be great for keeping the weeds down by the fence, but I didn’t realize there would be so many! So the rest of the day was spent moving wood chips, wheelbarrowfulls of chips.

After many trips with the wheelbarrow and the pile of chips only half of what it was at the beginning, I decided it was time to quit for that day. I came into the house, checked my phone, 8 messages from my husband “Don’t keep the wood chips!!!” LOL



....it’s good the tree is gone, more morning sun shines into our little kitchen, no more piles of maple leaves to rake and humongous branches to drag to the garden rubbish pile...and yet I kinda miss her.

On the Topic of Alice Gallagher

It’s a touchy sore point for me, and it is probably the main reason I stopped visiting this blog, but there is unfinished business in it for me. It made me angry to think that someone I had counted as such a wonderful friend could have lied about her love of Jesus, and turn against Him by proclaiming that she “no longer” believes in Him.

And because “the falling away” became that personal, that painful, I did a lot of soul searching and internet searching on the topic of the falling away, and although I have been angry that she had me fooled (probably because it made me feel so foolish) I still cared very much as evidenced by how much I was bothered by it. At every thought of her, and people like her, who make false confessions of faith, I pray that one day she will to the blessing of herself and all who know her, will come to TRULY love and confess Jesus as her Lord and Saviour.

 Over the recent years there has been a veritable flood of people falling away from faith in Christ. It seems that even many pastors are confessing that they do not really believe what they have been preaching for years. Jesus did warn us that this would be one of the signs we would encounter in the last days, and mockers of course  mock that the “last days” have gone on for centuries, yet while true the Apostle Peter spoke on that topic...one day God’s patience will run dry for this world, and I continue to pray that Alice and the many others like her won’t be found on the wrong side of that ending.


I believe there are many  that, like Alice did in the past, put on a charade, pretending to believe and giving a very convincing performance, and not born of the Spirit...they too will eventually fall away.

This sermon by Henry Mahan speaks on the topic of being “Religious But Lost”.
