Well, howdy y'all. I arrived in Glenwood (via Bonanza and then car, in time to flood and clean up the bathroom of the trailer, lassoed a Forest Service guy I know and he helped me hook up my electricity, get the fridge on, lights, etc. Being the princess that I am, I ate a pecan pie for dinner, read very late, got up at 12:30 p.m., made coffee, ate a donut, took a shower and went to a great Community Choir Concert group from Silver City.
I have been DOG TIRED, but now I am under a tree with a wonderful breeze and picking up a neighbor's signal on Larry's MAC Pro. Just a few things to share from today.
While I was in the shower this afternoon, the Holy Spirit laid some things on my heart. This communication process from Him to my heart to my head is so blessed. After I receive one of these messages, I compare it to the Word of God to make sure it did in fact come from Him as he commands
us to do.
I came out of Works/Rules Theology many years ago. I wasn't steeped in it, but introduced to it, and now have cast it far. BUT...God does expect us to be separate in some ways out in the world. And when I say Us, I mean that He does speak individually to each one of us at times. I do know from experience that preaching to someone, harassing someone, convincing someone of anything is futile, so I gave up on that totally after my first husband divorced me.
I will simply share what I received today and if you do not agree or do not see it, then that is your decision. I lived through the 1950's, the 1960's, the 1970's the 1980's, the 1990's, then 2000 came and my youngest daughter graduated from HS. I had been waiting for that year all my life. It came and went and it is 2011. I attended the HIPPY Movement (didn't really mingle in it much) but I understood it. Everybody was hollering Peace, Peace. I knew in my heart that there was only one place to get that, but I had put that on hold. I saw the "Peace sign", and then Pegaseuses, and other signs. Now it is 2011 and the Peace sign is all over clothes, purses, backpacks, books, you name it. What does it mean? It is the world saying Peace comes from another place except Jesus Christ. If you are a believer, I want you to know that the Lord has laid it on my heart, twice, (including today) about us as Christians thinking that this is OK and following the world's message. I am not telling you that you must follow rules, but I beg you to listen to that little voice that I am talking about if you are a Christian and thnk it over and make Godly decisions for your children and grandchildren and nieces and all of those who you have influence over and buy for.
End of Story
Amen.
