God always provides new joy for our lives.

I know God loves me and knows what brings me happiness by the precious ones He brings into my life. When I got older and my sons got all grown and on their own I was at a loss for a while. Seemed like being used to caring for the boys had me feeling the empty nest blues. I just needed to be needed. God knows what we need before we do a lot of times. He provided me with the joy of finding Debra my wife. He knew I needed someone to be with that loved Him as much a I. Then knowing I missed my children He gave me Malora and then Lilo our two little dogs. They will always need me they won't grow up and leave home. Then he sent me Cali our cat. She is so special! I have never seen a cat quite like her. She has the personality of a furry little person. Most cats are very independent, well not her! She talks back to you when you talk to her. She knows how to tell you what she wants by actions and certain meow sounds. And she will go to her over sized big dog pet porter kennel on command! Now how many cats do you know that will follow commands? But most of all she is just the most affectionate cat I have ever seen. She a little daddy's girl. She knows when I don't feel well and she watches over me like a mother hen. She lays beside me on the bed for afternoon naps if I'm tired or having a lot of back pain. She rubs her face on my face and purrs as if to let me know she cares and is there for me then snuggles curled up against my back like she's hugging me. She won't get up until I do. I know she will always need my care as well as Lilo and Malora. So now I am all adjusted to my sons being out on their own and I have these three new children that need me and always will. Yes God knows exactly what we need even before we do. But most of all it's wonderful to have such a loving God to care for us! Yes He truly does meet all our needs!

Yes Lord Jesus Though I was once blind now I see! So many things so clearly now that I live my life for you and not myself. Judgement was a way of life for me. No forgiveness was found in me. I really never knew how to love. I was never really taught these things as a child. I lived a life of fear in a family broken by alcohol and godlessness. Thank you Father for my grand mother "Nanna" Onita Bowman who had a love for the Lord and would talk with me about Jesus in my youth to give me some knowledge of Him. She read the gospel to me on occasion and I enjoyed it. It felt good to know that someone cared about those poor Jewish people of that day and would help them. A lot of time as a child I felt scared and helpless with everything that went on in my home with my family so I could really relate. When I was eight years old I had a school friend named Chris McKenney. His dad was the cub and boy scout master in town. His dad and mom were devout Christians and went to mid week services and prayer meetings after cub scout meetings on Wednesday nights. I was in scouts so rather than go home to the country on the bus after school Chris' folks asked if I would like to join them at their home for dinner before the meeting and my folks said ok so I did. After the meeting my dad was supposed to pick me up but was late so Mr McKenney called my mom and said they would bring me home after church and not to worry about coming to get me as no one would be there when they came. She said ok. So I went to church for the very first time. Everyone seemed so happy to see each other! And wow they really were happy to meet me! It was fun. I really didn't know the songs but really enjoyed listening. The pastor preached on starting at John 18 with the arresting of Jesus and His restoring the ear of the servant to the chief priest after Peter cut it off. Then Jesus being taken away and eventually tried, beaten, and crucified. I sobbed! I couldn't help it. My grand mother had told me before of these things but never with the boldness of cold hard truth as the pastor had spoke of it! I truly believe the Lord won my heart right then and there for good but I just didn't know and accept to have His full blessing you must live the life by picking up the cross and following Him. This I did not do. At the end of the service the pastor asked if anyone wanted to accept Jesus as their Lord and savior to come forward I nearly ran up there. I heard Mr McKenney chuckle as I zipped past him. They prayed with me and sprinkle poured water over my head to baptize and anointed my forehead with the oil of our Father. Then everyone there hugged me and welcomed me to God's Kingdom family. I got to tell you that was one of the nicest feelings I had ever had. I felt God's love a lot. But once I was back home all that love was gone. Back to the reality that was my life. Parents that didn't love God, or each other enough to stop abusing themselves, each other, or their children. Then I grew up and repeated a lot of the same sinful living of my parents. Finally once I had pretty much ruined my life and lost everything and everyone I loved I heard Jesus' voice speaking in my heart loader and loader! Asking me are you tired of being a loser? Do you enjoy Satan defeating you? Would you like to turn this around before it's too late? So what if some people in your life won't forgive you God will if you ask in MY NAME SAITH THE LORD! I never left you I have just been waiting for you to realize who's side your on. You can't live a life of sin and know ME! You need to pick up your cross and follow me in repentance. He nagged at me thank Him and nagged at me thank the Father in heaven in my heart until I gave in. Thank you Jesus for never giving up on me! My life is free now. I used to think drinking beer and smoking pot set me free. What a bone head! They were just chains of bondage to bind me! I forgive all who have wronged me in any way for I won't have those chains binding me either. And for those that don't want to forgive me read Matthew 7 very carefully, also Matthew 18:21-22. Your very own forgiveness rests in your own hands. As does mine. Heavenly Father please bless those with peace , and forgiveness through the loving grace that can only come from You through the blessing of Your Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that might be reached by this writing. In Your Service Lord ,in the name of Jesus...AMEN!!!

Thank you God for the Grace you have given me. I did nothing to deserve this forgiving love you have delivered upon me but never the less you gave it to me anyway. All I had to do was ask. I am not satisfied just to be saved I want to live in your will as much as I possibly can. Please God help me to discern who is true and who is not. Some times it's easy to see Satan and his kind for who they are, sometimes they hide in the Christian rank and file, and are very deception filled. I have traveled much in my life. I have visited many churches met many pastors. Some very Godly loving men, some impostors of pastors. Only God knows the hearts of men always but you can watch their leadership tactics and the fruit they bare. I can always tell a church where God is really touching the hearts of people. They enjoy the fruits of each others talents used to praise and worship God joyfully. I can also tell a church where no one really listens to God's will, everyone feels justified in judgement of each other. Even being misled by their pastors that brother should be his brothers keeper. Which after doing they would be in total denial of. And never allowing for anyone to point out in scripture that Jesus taught the opposite in Matthew 7. Fortunately God created me with a soft heart easily broken. God tells me in my heart, if others do not care any more for you than to break your heart then they care not for my heart either, dust off your feet and walk away. I had to do this recently. It hurt but I am still involved in other ministry tasks away from that church. That's the thing God can always use you. One thing might be wrong and you have to walk away but another door will open. As long as you love God, He will love you back and find a perfect job in His kingdom for you. And to those reading this "DO NOT LET THOSE WHO WOULD JUDGE YOU MAKE YOU FEEL BAD!"Judgement is mine saith the Lord! After all their not supposed to be judging anyone anyways. Just stay faithful to Jesus and go where your welcomed and treated with love respect and dignity. There are a lot of cults out there calling themselves churches with some pretty major deceptive control issues. Most if really examined closely are just some losers using God as a means to an end. You'll see it a lot down here in the desert southwest as they like ear tickling and fleecing the snowbirds and retirees. I am praying for those that had a negative effect on my heart to feel the need of repentance for their behavior. I've had to deflect a ton of judgement of late for an ounce of question on my part. And the question on my part could have and should have been easily addressed. It was just that, I as a person meant so little to the parties in question, they just chose to persecute me.

The most powerful of Satans weapons against man GREED
As it was said by our savior in Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. AKA(money). What is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.Luke16:15 Over and over again they forget about God's Word and God's Will for His people. They have taken a nation born of Christian values of morality and God's Will for a nation to be governed under the law of God Almighty and His Word , His only begotten Son Jesus Christ our Savior, Lord and King. Removed God from our government , schools , public freedom of speech of His name is now coming under question as to being hate speak. And The Antichrist driven right wing Republican and Tea Parties spew their greed driven philosophy out to the masses until they have them as mystified with their charm as Satan himself has his own demons charmed. But the facts are the facts. God's Word is true yesterday , today , and tomorrow! We are closer and closer to the end time prophecy every day. As our dollar crumbles and dies and we as a nation become so weak we can't stop the United Nations take over soon to come after a total collapse of the worlds economy, and the greedy ones in a position of power and wealth manipulating and orchestrating the whole thing. When Jesus told His disciples the poor would always be among us He knew the Greed of the wealthy would always keep poor in the bondage of poverty. From the beginning God knew His sheep and He knew His goats. He knew the world and the age of the human flesh body had a beginning time and a time it had to end. We are coming to the end as prophesy has spoken. Our nation has turned it's face from God! Is turning it's back on it's disabled,elderly,and poor! And it's turning it's back on Israel and God will turn His face from our nation. So it is written in God's word, so it WILL HAPPEN! I WILL FAITHFULLY AWAIT MY LORD!

Fighting Satans Strongholds

Trying to keep the spirit strong in faith,living the life God would have you live is a constant battle. We have a war going on inside us all constantly being pulled by two forces. The force of God which is good and the force of Satan which is evil. God's force is not earthly minded or worldly in nature. It is not a force of bodily cravings or desires. It is a knowledge of what is holy and righteous and the desire to please God and live the life He desires you to live. Free of all carnal nature of the flesh and not wanting the desires of the world, but with your eyes and thoughts directed on your eternal home in heaven with the knowledge of the grace the Father bestowed upon us through the death of His only begotten son Jesus Christ on the cross at Calvary. Through His blood we are forgiven our sins of our fleshly lives, but only if we know the Father,Son and Holy Spirit. When you accept the Lord Jesus in your heart little by little you are drawn into a never ending journey. The more I study God's word the more ways I see how Satan builds strongholds inside us to try to tear us away from God. It's worldly habits we enjoyed before turning our lives over to the Lord. Things like Smoking,Drinking Alcoholic beverages,Drugs,Swearing,Sex,Pornography,ECT. anything that is sinful and an abomination in the eyes of God. Satan will use our fleshly bodies and minds to entrap us and drive a wedge between us and God. I have struggled my way through drugs and alcohol thanks to God I have had my victory. But I am still struggling with strongholds. In my blindness of unbelief I had many and now have to grow spiritually in many ways. No matter how far I have come Lord I pray you will keep me knowing I am still a sinner and can never afford to stop working toward you. I must always remain humbly repentant and must pray to you day for assistance in breaking down the strongholds that Satan would use to bind me to him and this world that has no future for me. Dear Lord I pray you keep my eyes fixed upon you and the victory you bought for me with your blood on that cross at Calvary.I pray these things to you Father God in Jesus' Holy Name...AMEN!!!
