Heart's Desire (repost)

The future My Love, may seem bleak,

But that way of thinking is for the weak

Weak in Spirit

Weak in Truth

Weak upon Weak

My Sweet, that is not you

Forge ahead with a song in your step

Glide along happily like when we first met

Long ago, before you were born,

your spirit was one not to be outworn

Listen My Sweet, I sing you a song

Keep this in your heart for it will not be long

When all your heart's desire will be met

This is true My Love

Do not lament

I love you truly, surely I do

What I have for you 

Is coming soon.

Consecration to the Two Hearts

"Daily examination of conscience is necessary.  It is necessary that each day you renew your Consecration to the Sacred Heart of My Son and to Mine.  Is not every instant a new struggle against evil?  The hordes of satan do not rest.  Why is it that My children think that consecrating themselves once to Our Sacred Hearts is enough?  No children, it is never enough..."

Do It Anyway...

Restoration...

I awoke last night at around 3:00 am.  I spoke to the Lord about Jackie's situation.  I began to cry and said how I dreaded now having to put her through all these tests.  She doesn't handle things like that well.  She doesn't understand and it's like torture to her, a real struggle.

I sensed in my spirit that I was to continue on and keep hold of His hand for He is guiding and orchestrating everything.  That from all this much fruit will come.  Much fruitfulness!  That He has a plan.  A wonderful plan.  Not one to harm us but to prosper us.  That we are to hold His hand like a trusting child following His lead.  Trust.  I heard more, but that was the gist of it.

In the morning, once again Lana Vawser's post hit home... God Is Going to Show Himself Stronger Than The Battles Faced

Here is an excerpt...

"There will be incredible recompense.  There will be more fruit than you have ever seen.  There will be greater increase than you have dreamed.  There will be greater demonstration of the power and the creativity of God in your life.  There will be restoration of what was taken, what was killed and stolen the Lord is restoring by His resurrection power."

Interesting how last week my mother heard there would be "recompense" and last night I heard that there will be "much fruit, fruitfulness" from our situations.

And also this from Lana's post...

"The enemy had stolen many of your voices, he has stolen many of your dreams but here comes the Lord in power, a deep encounter with His heart that will Restore your voice.  Restore your sound.  Restore your song, and you will carry and release greater revelation than you have in previous seasons."

This is interesting because Jackie's voice, her sound has been stolen literally.  At birth she lacked oxygen and it severely affected her.  She can repeat words you say, but to have a conversation with you she cannot.  I have noticed especially lately that she so much wants to talk with us. But, she cannot.  She will look at me and say "Mom, mom, mom..." I will answer her and she looks at me with a blank stare.  I know she so much wants to say something, but the connection in her brain from what she wants to communicate and how to do it is lost to her.  Her teacher and aides say the same thing.

One of her aides told me how they will be sitting in the cafeteria with a group eating lunch, all chatting and Jackie keeps tapping the aide's arm and repeats her name over and over then just looks at her.  It is painful to see how much she wants to be a part of the group, to be able to chime into the conversation, but she is not able.  Somewhat like being trapped inside her own body, unable to truly speak to us.  It saddens our hearts.

Jackie's voice, her sound, her song has truly been stolen from her!  But we know that in God's goodness, He will restore Jackie's voice and she will praise His name forever!  She will be healed.  But while waiting, it is painful.

I just now randomly opened "Mornings With The Holy Spirit" (by Jennifer LeClaire) devotional (pg. 289) to this...

"Trusting Me means not having all the answers.  I know you like to have everything figured out ahead of time, but it's not always necessary or even profitable for you to have all the answers up front.  Having all the answers doesn't require trust.

Many things are going on behind the scenes that you don't see. Seeing those things would only distract your heart.  I will lead you forth by peace.  You will recognize My peace because  it is spiritual, not soulish, and it is perfect."

So now, we are on another new adventure with Jackie.  

There is a Reason.
God be with us!

"We know that God makes all things work together for the good of those who have been called according to His purpose."
Romans 8:28

Weariness...

Upon waking yesterday morning, I sensed hearing that it was going to be a good day, one of revelation.  Then, I saw Lana Vawser's post called Weary Ones, His Wisdom Will Bring You Comfort, Healing and Refreshment.  I was searching for revelation of some sort.

Then in reading Lana's post she said this...

"There is a deeper level of revelation coming to the weary ones regarding where the Lord is leading them, what the Lord is saying and what is before them that is going to heal their hearts.  It is going to heal their weariness."

Then later in the morning I received a phone call from Jackie's teacher, she said that Jackie had what seemed to be a mini-seizure.  Her whole body began shaking, she turned red and then completely pale, then sat for a few minutes staring into space.  I could hear shaking in her teacher's voice.  Her teacher and aides were very concerned of what they just witnessed.

I picked her up and brought her into the doctor.  We are now doing an array of tests to find out what's going on.  She will need blood drawn, which will be for Jackie like torture.  This poor girl, her sufferings in this life seem unending.

Then I remembered this below was also part of Lana's post...

"The Lord is releasing Wisdom to the weary right now.  The Lord showed me many in the Body of Christ are still so weary and feeling discouraged because of circumstances surrounding their promises.  These "out of left field" events that have come and challenged the promise, shaken the promises, has left many in such a deep place of weariness.  Yet another fight for hope.  Yet another fight to continue to stand, Yet another fight to keep believing and keep hopes up.  The Lord showed me many feeling disoriented again, like their heads are spinning and questions are bubbling up again."

I would have to say that receiving a phone call from Jackie's teacher and told she had a mini-seizure was one of those "out of left field" events.  It put my head in a spin for seizures are not something Jackie does.

In seeking any revelation from Holy Spirit I was led to randomly open "Jesus Calling, Morning and Evening" (by Sarah Young) to this...

"Be willing to keep climbing this high mountain with Me.  This journey is training you to see from a heavenly perspective that transcends your circumstances.  The higher up the mountain you climb, the steeper and more challenging your path becomes, but the greater your adventure as well."

"God, my Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet swift as those of hinds and enables me to go upon the heights."

Habakkuk 3:19

And then I clicked on the random rhema word...

"Brother, let me rejoice in the Lord and sing His praises, in the midst of my infirmities: by the grace of the Holy Spirit I am so closely united to my Lord, that, through His goodness, I can indeed rejoice in the Most High Himself."

This has been a long journey...

Listen to the Rain...

Listen.  Listen...

"Lo!  He spreads the clouds in layers as the carpeting of His tent.  In His hands he holds the lightning, and He commands it to strike the mark.

His thunder speaks for Him and incites the fury of the storm.

At this my heart trembles and leaps out of its place,  To hear His angry voice as it rumbles forth from His mouth!  Everywhere under the heavens He sends it, with His lightning, to the ends of the earth.

Again His voice roars, the majestic sound of His thunder.

He does great things beyond our knowing; wonders past our searching out.  For He says to the snow, "Fall to the earth";
likewise to his heavy, drenching rain."
Job 36:29-33, 37:1-6

Attitude...

After a few "happenings" in my personal life this past weekend, I noticed that I was Not liking my attitude. 

I had been blessed with a couple days of serene peace of mind and then suddenly I knew that I was on a slippery slope and very much needing an attitude change.  How quickly my "peace" turned into "unrest".  I heard in my spirit... 

"It's about your attitude".  

Years back when I became pregnant for the second time, my first born was only 7 months old.  I had a difficult experience with that birth and was now again pregnant.  At that time I worked as a stenographer at a booming business and the secretary of the President of our company seemed to not want any children.  When she discovered I was pregnant again she acted almost appalled.  She looked at me with disdain.  I won't forget her statement after looking at me with pity and the question "Why?".  She said, 

"Well... I guest it's about your attitude right?"

Little did she know that statement would again sound in my head many years later.  This weekend I rehearsed that scene in my mind.  This morning upon waking I clicked into a Random Rhema and it read as follows...

"Love feels no burden, values no labors, would willingly do more than it can, complains not of impossibilities, because it conceives that it may and can do all things; when weary is not tired; when strained is not constrained; when frightened is not disturbed; but like a living flame and torch all on fire, it mounts upwards and securely 

passes through all opposition."

Immediately after finishing this post, I was going to push "publish" when I looked up at this car commercial on the television.  Amazingly I had already incorporated the tire quote and the fixing of the flat tire pictures in my post when I looked up at the television and saw a car commercial whereby a father and his children are driving fast to catch a race his wife was running in.  He was averting many obstacles.  They arrive and they all cheer for her while she runs her race and at the end it is heard... "Empower the drive."  The commercial is called "On The Run"...

Enough said.

The Test...

We will never stop waiting on You, Lord. 

We will never stop believing.
We will never walk away.
You Lord, are our strength.

We will finish our race strong!

We love You Lord!

To my sister and mother... we Will finish strong!  Keep going!
Keep the Faith!

Words!

Below is an excerpt from a recent article written by Msgr. Charles Pope "A Reflection of Common Sins of Speech"...

"Some of the most common sins we commit are related to speech:  gossip, idle chatter, lies, exaggerations, harsh attacks and uncharitable remarks.  With our tongue we can spread hatred, incite fear and maliciousness, spread misinformation, cause temptation, discourage, teach error and ruin reputations.  With a gift capable of bringing such good, we can surely cause great harm!"

See the entire article here... Bite Your Tongue!

Oh Lord, help us to only speak words of Life!

May you have a Blessed Day 

filled with words that build you and others UP!

Dwell Alone With Jesus

Here is a Random Rhema I clicked into recently...

"My child, few men live in peace of conscience and spiritual joy because few love to withdraw from the crowd and dwell alone with Jesus."

Also Lana Vawser had a word impressed upon her.  Go here... Write It All Down And You Will Go Deeper Than You Have Ever Been

On a recent weekend we were extremely busy, it actually was hectic.  We had many obligations and was running from one obligation to the next.  Even though we had a nice time, I sensed heavily in my spirit a need to actual take a shower upon returning home.  I asked...

"Why do I feel as if I have picked up filth in a spiritual sense and need to wash it off of me?  I feel as if I have picked up much dirt from this world."

As I showered I asked, "O' Lord, cleanse me!"

Then I randomly opened "Jesus Lives" (By Sarah Young) to this below.  Here's an excerpt...

"Do not underestimate the brokenness of the world where you live now.  Your exuberant enjoyment of My Presence will always intermingle with the sorrows of living in this fallen world until I take you into Glory."

Oh Lord, rather than all the busyness of this world, I would much rather dwell alone with You.

"I am the Lord Who gives strength in the day of trouble.  Come to Me when all is not well with you.


Your tardiness in turning to prayer is the greatest obstacle to heavenly consolation, for before you pray earnestly to Me you first seek many comforts
 and take pleasure in outward things.  

Thus, all things are of little profit to you until you realize that I am the One Who saves those who trust in Me, and that outside of Me there is

no worth while help, or any useful counsel or lasting remedy."

"Come", He said.  Then Peter got down, out of the boat walked on the water and came toward Jesus.  But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!"

The Double Rainbow

When you pray and pray for a "mountain" to move in your life and it does not.  When that mountain has actually gotten bigger.  When you've exhausted every avenue you know to get around that mountain to no avail.  When you realize that mountain is one that you have to climb and there is no getting around it.  When you realize you are being tested like never before in your life.  When your test is longsuffering...

That is when you look up.  Up at the Double Rainbow!  

And keep climbing!

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose."
Romans 8:28

I know Lord,

There is a reason!

My God...

"Sweetness beyond words, make bitter all the carnal comfort that draws me from love of the eternal and lures me to its evil self by the sight of some delightful good in the present.  Let it not overcome me, my God.  

Let not flesh and blood conquer me.  Let not the world and its brief glory deceive me, nor the devil trip me by his craftiness.  Give me courage to resist, patience to endure, and constancy to persevere.

Give me the soothing unction of Your Spirit rather than all the consolations of the world, and in place of carnal love, infuse into me the love of Your Name."

Amen.

Forever Entwined

On October 5, 2017 I heard in my spirit...

"Listen, I give you a song to sing.  A song of love from Me.

I never leave your side.  I'm forever entwined.  You can't make a move that I don't see.

Believe Me when I tell you, My Sweets, the joy you get in Me 

is complete.  

Complete because I know you.  I know you true."

Then I randomly opened "Jesus Calling" (by Sarah Young) to pg. 72.  Here is an excerpt...

"The world is a needy place; do not go there for sustenance.  Instead, come to Me.  Learn to depend on Me alone, and your weakness will become saturated with My Power.  When you find your completeness in Me, you can help other people without using them to meet your own needs.  Live in the Light of My Presence, and your light will shine brightly into the lives of others.

In this day's circumstances, what will you do to truly rest in My Love?  My Joy?  My Peace?  You are complete in Me!" End

And then, to top it all off... I was led to randomly open my bible and I did to John 7 - Feast of Booths, and then I came across the video below, in which to my amazement at around the 4:50 mark on the video, Steven Ben-Nun speaks the word "entwined" many times, and speaks of being "entwined" and our DNA.  "Entwined" was what I had heard in my spirit just prior to viewing Steven's video.  Amazing is our God! 

Sorry, but you'll have to guide the video back there because I can't seem to get this video to start from the beginning!  But he begins at the 4:50 mark speaking of "entwined" and our DNA.

Thou Dwellest Among Foes

"My Son, thou art never secure in this life, but thy spiritual armour will always be needful for thee as long as thou livest.  

Thou dwellest among foes, and art 

attacked on the right hand and on the left. 

If therefore thou use not on all sides the shield of patience, thou wilt not remain long unwounded. Above all, if thou not keep thy heart fixed upon Me with steadfast purpose to bear all things for My sake, thou shalt not be able to bear the fierceness of the attack, nor to attain to the victory of the blessed. 

Therefore, must thou struggle bravely all thy life through, and put forth a strong hand against those things which oppose thee.   For to him that overcometh is the hidden manna given, 

but great misery is reserved for the slothful."

Thomas a Kempis

The Imitation of Christ

Solitude

"Avoid public gatherings as much as possible, for the discussion of worldly affairs becomes a great hindrance, even though it be with the best intentions, for we are quickly corrupted and

 ensnared by vanity.  

Often I wish I had remained silent, and had not been among men.  But why is it that we are so ready to chatter or gossip with each other, when we so seldom return to silence without some injury to our conscience?  

The reason why we are so fond of talking with each other is that we think to find consolation in this manner, and to refresh a heart wearied with many cares.  And we prefer to speak and think of those things which we like and desire, or of those which we dislike.  

Alas, however, all this is often to no purpose, for this outward consolation is no small obstacle to inner and Divine consolation."

A Visit (Repost from March 6, 2016)

This morning just prior to being fully awake, an experience that happened to me during a surgery came to my mind, and then I sensed this...

"What you experienced that day is true.  Your mother asked your grandparents to be with you during your surgery.  Your grandparents then were granted permission to visit you during your surgery to give you hope for the future.  You only remember a small portion of their visit, but you know in part and that is enough to give you hope.  You and yours are part of the remnant, a chosen people.  You will be safe in what is coming, sheltered under My wings.  Do not fear.  You have been chosen and will help replenish My earth. You are safe."

Following is the original post describing the visit...

I've had four surgeries.  My first surgery was due to cysts on my one ovary, then a hysterectomy due to my uterus falling unto my bladder, another surgery to sling up my bladder and yet another one for a rectocele.  I was having so many surgeries back to back, that the nurses claimed as they wheeled me into surgery yet once again, that they were going to put my name above the doors of the operating room.  Whew!  Sure glad that's over.

My very last surgery, however,  was very interesting indeed.  I've always been given morphine.  Believe me, I was always out within nano-seconds and remembered nothing.  I felt like I went to sleep for only a moment.  I always woke up fine from it, but experienced the normal aches and pains of surgery.  However, my last surgery was quite different.  Everything went along as usual.  I was given the morphine, I was out for the count, but something extraordinary happened.

I saw my grandparents.  Yes, I did!  No one will tell me otherwise, ever.  My beloved grandmother, Alfreda died just a week prior to my surgery.  Some may say, she was on my mind and that's why I thought I saw her.  No,  I know what I saw.  It was rather dark and I only saw their shadowy figures.  But, I knew without a doubt it was my Grandpa Adam and Grandma Alfreda.  They spoke to me.  They told me many things.  However, I don't remember a word they said, except that I would not be allowed to remember what they said at this particular time.  As I was coming awake, in my mind I was saying over and over... "Don't forget, don't forget, don't forget!"

Well, guess what?  I forgot.  I was trying in ernst to remember what was said.  However, they were right. I remembered nothing, except seeing them and having a secret conversation.

This time awaking from surgery was extremely different.  I was euphoric, in total bliss.  Joy filled up my heart.  I've never experienced such a feeling of bliss before in my life, ever!  I loved everyone.  The doctor popped her head in to check on me.  She saw I was awake and gave me the thumbs up that everything went great.  I smiled and reached out for her saying... "Thank you.  I love you, I love you!"  She smiled and said "I love you too."  I'm assuming she thought I was still a little high from the drugs, but I was high on life, love, happiness and joy beyond my understanding.

As they wheeled me back to my room, my husband looked at me and said... "Wow!  I've never seen you come back from surgery smiling!  You are smiling from ear to ear!"  Oh yes I was, I had just touched a tiny fragment of heaven and brought a tiny bit back with me.  A fragment that lingered for a short while.  Too short, I might add.  That feeling slowly left, but I will never in all my life forget it.

I often refer back to that experience and ponder on what was said.  I still can't remember, but I know that my beloved grandparents came to tell me of future events and to assure me that all would be well.

I had a couple very special visitors come from heaven to visit me. And, the message they brought I know was full of hope and love straight from above.  They received permission to be able to reach out to me in such a special way to give us hope for perhaps some very difficult days.

One day, I will know that message in detail.  But, for now I hold onto the absolute bliss that lingered for such a short while.  If that is even the smallest glimpse of how it feels in heaven, then we have so much to look forward to.  So much more than we could ever imagine.

I was blessed to receive this special visitation from my grandparents.  They love us so much and were allowed to remind us that they are always with us and all will be well.

This I know for certain.
