Mine Eyes .......

I find it amazing how people can see the same things and come out with totally differant thoughts and experiences.. I wonder how many have ever considered that what they percieve others may not. Sometimes I have found this to be a positive learning experience and at others misunderstanding which also brought a lesson.
Lord help me to think of others always and to remember that though we may look at the same thing our heart eyes may see something totally differant.

The Prayer of Jabez

Oh that you would Bless me indeed and enlarge my territory.. I Prayed this prayer and asked God for this in my life.. Answered prayer is all I can say.
As God placed people in my life from around the world and I have learned of their countries and the whys of them coming to the U.S. I have new eyes for foreigners. I have spent the past few days learning of the guerrilas in Columbia,a place where in the very near future I will be part of delivering Bibles to the mountains in Columbia, to terrorists, God has provided this opportunity and many more for me to share the gospel message with these terrorists and In Indonesia and the Phillipines, Honduras and vietnam and the Ukraine... Enlarge my territory Indeed is exactly what the Lord has done. Father I thank you for choosing me, may all my words and actions be only you speaking thru me...

The Whisper be careful what you pray for you just might get it....

Get off the couch !

That is my new goal. Joined a fitness center and started drinking water,(which is a big deal for me) trying to give up smoking which is tough but I am not giving up... Bought some beads to make gifts, Bible study and reading a new book each week, writing prisoners, My blog, going to church and getting involved, cursillo, Getting out of the house and helping others (thanks for inviting me) you know who you are,spending time with friends and spreading the gospel message, Watching what I put in my mouth and what comes out of it. Praying and spending time with my God each day.. My dog Gus who I love dearly and keeps me company and Loves me back.. Time with my three girls and my husband even if it is on the phone . Changing my habits and adding new things has changed everything from watching tv all day, stuffing my face, being depressed and lonely.. Thank you Lord for lifting me up out of that pit, All I did was ask and knock and God opened the door, I have to choose to walk thru it.. So if your any of these things get your butt up off the couch and ask God's help and change your life.

Deep

In seeking answers the past two weeks the answer keeps being (just don't go there) !!!! Thank you Lord for the conviction and the revealing. I am also Thankful for the warnings I recieve in the word about teachers.. Like people who think They have all this DEEEEEP revelation, yet if you say all our answers to right and wrong are in the Bible, they will burn you at the stake !
That warning is in the Bible also..

The Whisper seek me and you will find me, knock and the door will be open to you. I will give you ears to hear and eyes to see...

I didn't have to go to DEEEP to find this............

The list and the label

Are you on the list ? The one where you may have disagreed with someone or angered someone or done the right thing, but the right thing was difficult and painful. Do you now have a title ? Like the snob or the rich bitch (cuz you have nice things) that by the way you worked your tail off for. The label of a snitch for reporting a serious wrong where this was a necessary step. The good ones friend, giver, man or woman of God, lover, kind. We dont mind these labels, the others may be true and we think as offensive, for me being the snitch is o.k. God used this and saved my marriage and my family, I did the right thing. The snob I have found most times doesn't fit, and sometimes it does... But who really cares. God cares these kinds of names can be harmful and most would never say that to the persons face, I don't happen to be on that list I have never struggled with speaking my mind and I choose face to face combat (oops) contact. Yes I fall on the fighter list not the flight list, just how it is and I must indulge in the word daily to keep this in check... Lord help me to see all people as your children and help me to show love not judgement in all things.... AMEN

Life and death and organ donation

I could'nt help but write about hearing of a young beautiful girl who's life here on this earth ended yesterday and Praying for her parents and family. This morning hearing of the loss of a father many years ago and what a tragedy when life ends so quickly with no warning and all the heartbreak and all the people who's lives are changed forever in the blink of an eye. My father died that way, he just fell off his chair and that was it, gone. My mother on the other hand suffered greatly and it was so painful to watch and to not be able to do anything to help her. Today I picked up a friend and within minutes he told me they had taken his brother by ambulance to the hospital in Chicago, he is awaiting a liver transplant and the family was informed they had a liver, my heart leaped and I knew all we could do was pray.. As we were doing our errands in Sioux Falls he made a call to find out that the hospital was readying his brother for a liver by-pass machine to determine if he was a suitable candidate and if his body could withstand this procedure,I saw hopes dashed in an instant and I tried to be as positive as I could be not really knowing all that is involved. I find it a beautiful thing organ donation, that when one life is lost others may be saved and sometimes several people are saved by the loss of one. Please join me in prayer for Steve - AKA(weiner)!!!

Quitting Smoking ! Yikes.........

I knew this was gonna be hard, I just did'nt expect to feel like this ..
Addicted is a mild word for tobacco it has far greater effects. Wow, then life of course decides to throw a few curve balls and you guessed it I threw a fast ball at anyone or anything. Patience is out the window and I did'nt open it first, Anxiety is now my middle name the habit of the nasty cig to the mouth, the something in your hand and I cannot afford for it to be a box of delicious girl scout cookies but I ate the whole thing, those darn lemonades are awesome.. Then cheese I love cheese and like my michelin tire needs another roll... So Dear Lord only you can do this, I surrender that I am powerless and that I need HELP..... To anyone reading, this please PRAY....

The Whisper Nothing is Impossible for God, Where two or more are gathered IN MY NAME I AM THERE WITH THEM. Amen
