From Worldly Riches to True Riches

This touched my heart, and I pray for every satanist and atheist and agnostic and witch and occultist, and backslidden Christian, former never really been saved “Christians” etc. etc., that I have encountered in my life, I hope and pray the same grace and blessing this man and his wife received will also be bountifully rained upon each and every one.

Near the end he states that he spent decades in all the worldly religions looking into them all and says  to examine them truly and seek out Christian apologists like Ravi Zacharias because if you don’t seek Jesus out you are robbing yourself...and I would add that not only are you robbing yourself, you are robbing everyone you love of having a true relationship with you because until you truly fall down completely given over to Jesus no matter what, until He has stripped you of all this fake existence and restored your real soul to you even though it costs you everything in this world, you are not who the Lord created you to be until you are found in Him, and you rob yourself and everyone around you of the true riches that are not seen with the eyes of the flesh, but felt in your spirit and soul where the real riches are stored.

Is it my Fault...?

A couple years have put distance between me and what happened to Alice (a blogger friend who said she was a Christian but now shows she is not) and I still at times wonder “Is it my fault...is there something I should have said, or something she said that I should have answered properly and didn’t because I wasn’t paying close enough attention...” and have done this over and over wondering if it was my lack of watchfulness that caused her to fall away...

This morning I was looking through my recommended YouTube videos and found this one. This describes the feeling very well. I still feel the pain...

Edit to add my interpretation of this “parable”:

I was pondering this that the Lord gave me this morning...the peacock felt trapped, wanted out of the cage...Alice felt trapped by the Lord, she didn’t want what He was offering to her, she felt it restricted her freedom...the peacock soared up in the air, fully relishing the new freedom, and even though Patara tried so hard to catch him, he wanted whatever perils that awaited him rather than be put “back into that cage”...

....and so it was with Alice. She didn’t have Jesus, she had a cage of her own making that she thought was Jesus...and she’d rather go to hell than back into her cage

Troubling Signs

Hello again. First of all I want to say “Hi and thank you to Sandi. I saw your comment Sandi, and I agree that it is very strange that I cannot post nor answer comments even on my own blog nor on most everyone else’s either. I’ve tried changing my settings, but everything I’ve tried does not change   that fact, but I’ve resigned myself to it being okay. Thank you for your comments and concern.”

I have been spending my online time reading up on several changes that have been taking place because of the fear of the pandemic, and the fear of the coming economic changes and political changes, and the fear of the coming vaccine, etc., etc. and I agree, these are all troubling issues. But this morning as I pondered all of these things and the fear it is causing many people the words “Let not your heart be troubled” came to mind.

Joh 14:1  Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

Joh 14:2  In my Father's house are many mansions: if  not I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

Joh 14:3  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, ye may be also.

If the vaccine turns out to be the mark of the beast (and personally I do believe it will be) the Lord will provide for His children, you and I and all who look to Him, with the strength to not submit to this and face anything, even jail time or even death, with joy and a song in our hearts for the fact that soon we will be with Jesus.

EDIT I no longer believe “the jab” is the M.O.B. but I still do not like it 👎🏽

So let not your heart be troubled. Jesus promised these things would happen and He also promised He will never forsake us. ❤️

Social Distancing

Please understand that blogger no longer lets me comment so I won’t be able to answer questions in comment section. If a comment or question comes up I might bring it up in a following future blog post.

*******************************************************************************

The past few weeks have been interesting. We have a new phrase, at least I think it’s new....”social distancing” that is keeping most people home these days. So it gives me more time to think about things, pray about things, and catch up with my needlepoint which I hope to finish soon...

I’ve also been binge watching Ray Comfort’s Living Waters Youtube videos....
and also One for Israel’s many testimonies of Jews who have accepted Jesus as their Messiah.

Here’s one that touched my heart deeply:
