Surrender? Who me??








Me:  Why can’t I just live a good life the way I want then go to Heaven when it is time?  Why do I have to surrender?



God:  You don’t.  Many of My people don’t surrender, yet they believe in Me.  Look at it this way:  you are giving up (to Me) your pennies for nuggets of gold.



Me:  Oh, well then….





How are you doing with living the surrendered life?

Two Perspectives

Two Perspectives:  The Lord said:  “ONE:   Look up at Me with confidence that all will turn out well or TWO:   fussing and worrying and fretting.   You chose.   Many people don’t know there is another alternative to the worry and fretting perspective… and where does that leave them?   What kind of life do they have?   TRUST Me!” Which one do you do the most?

Praise as Warfare: What the Evil One doesn't want you to know!

Praise as warfare:  What the Evil One doesn’t want you to know! While preparing this blog, I encountered spiritual warfare.  Evidently the evil one doesn’t want me to post this conversation I had with God. Me:  I read, ‘nothing terrifies the devil and his demons like praise’.   Is this true, Lord?  God:  It doesn’t terrify them.  However, it IS a reminder, a tool for warfare and it does thwart them. Me:  I also read, ‘constant praise wards off depression, disappointments, despair’  Is this true? God:  Yes, remember the scripture, ‘Think on these things’? Because it keeps your mind where it should be.  I have provided for My people.  However, many choose not to.  It IS their choice. They either pick up the ‘tool’ and use it or not. Me:  Is Biblical praise more powerful than ‘regular’ praise? God:  Yes, because it uses the W...

[Inside is adorable.   Gingerbread-ish.]   Jesus:   Come on.   We flew up to the 2 nd story loft and looked down. Me:   This is… unusual. Jesus:   [laughed] Me:   I like it. Jesus:   So do I.   Jesus goes into the kitchen, opens the oven and pulls out a cookie sheet with gingerbread cookies on it. Jesus:   Would you like one? Me: Yes, but aren’t they hot? Jesus:   Blow on it. Me:   [I blew, instantly cooled.   I took a bite.]    Delicious; crunchy, soft, chewy, spicy. Jesus:   Glad you like i...
