What do you want, what do you want from me?

      Joyce Meyer was talking today about  running away from what God originally called us to do or what we learned from God during our early years of Christianity. She gave examples of Elijah the prophet and how, after he had killed and chopped up 400 prophets of Baal, He found out Jezebel was after him so he ran into the desert! Wow! The power of one woman! God got after him so he went back and did what he was originally told to do. Another example she gave was about Jonah. God told him to go to Ninevah, but Jonah thought he knew what was best, so he disobeyed God and went in the opposite direction. He was eventually thrown into the sea where he was swallowed by a whale. Where are you? Have you been swallowed by a whale?Are you doing what you want to do  your own way even though you know in your heart God has told you something else to do? God told the whale to vomit Jonah out and he landed on the beach in Ninevah and did what God originally told him to do. It's never to late to obey God. He is very merciful and kind. We may have to suffer for our disobedience, but God will reward us when we submit to His ways. He knows what's best for us even when we can't see it or understand it. She somehow, tied that in to loving your enemies. If you have been treated unfairly or an injustice has been done to you, cast it on the Lord. He will recompense you in ways you could never recompense yourself. He will even help you to forgive those who have hurt you or done you wrong. You will experience a release you never could on your own.
      Have you ever said "I know this is wrong, but....." If you are saying it now,  whatever the wrong thing is: STOP IT! SPIT IT OUT! THROUGH IT DOWN! POUR IT OUT! TURN IT OFF! RUN, AS FAST AS YOU CAN AWAY FROM IT , NEVER TO RETURN TO IT!  You may suffer for awhile until you allow God to heal you, but it will be worth it, I promise!
      I was blessed with some money plants and irises yesterday from a new friend, so I've been busy finding them a new home. While I was outside, I also took more pics.

The mountain across the street has been burning lately! But God has kept it from doing damage to everyone's property.This may actually be a sunset! Need new camera.

Mrs. Becky, I hope these  money plants make it!

These are the irises.

Old fashioned rose bush provides shelter for chickens and duck.

Wild violets.

Can you believe dogwood trees are blooming?

I don't know what these are called.

Can you believe figs on the fig tree?

Keria  and rosemary.

Clematis about to bloom!

I want to be filled with Your Spirit

      Walk in Your ways, honor You in all I do bringing glory to Your Name. Let my life be an offering to Your Name. I love that song by Mary Alessi. Are you watching Joyce Meyer this week? She's talking about faith and believing God. If you are believing God for something, Never! Give! Up! God honors faith and without faith we can't please Him. Satan brings doubt but we have to overcome those doubts with faith. Keep on believing and it will come to pass!


  I had my other two great- nieces yesterday.Here are some pics

Loving my milk!

Sourdough for crackers

Black beans soaking wtih a little kefir whey.

      I have been learning about lacto-fermentation and how it is supposed to be so good for you. It puts the good bacteria in your gut. But last night I read on the web that lacto-fermentation also has trace amounts of a cancer causing carcinogen. What does a body do? Now that I've gotten on the lacto-fermenting bandwagon I may have to drop off until I read more about the carcinogen. I'll let you know what I find out.

Sold!

      Have you ever been on a missions trip? I have, sort of, through Joyce Meyer Ministries. I watched today as people in India and around the world were being ministered to, mostly physically and through feeding programs of Joyce Meyer Ministries. Even though I can't go in person, I know that through partnering with Joyce Meyer Ministries, I am a part of those people being blessed and I get blessed from knowing I helped! Why not become a partner today? It is such a blessing to be a part of Joyce Meyer Ministries and knowing that you are helping someone else on the planet to know about Jesus Christ!
      I have some kefir grains for sale. I only want five dollars for them, which is half what I paid for them. If you are local and would like to buy some, leave me a comment. I changed the comment section so you don't have to become a member of the blog to leave a comment. I have both milk and water kefir grains for sale.   I knew God would sell our stuff! We sold the Escalade and our house on Main Street, today! God is so faithful! A man came and got the Escalade today and tomorrow a lady is supposed to pay money down on the house! I still have to show it again today. God really has a sense of humor and His timing is always right. Here are some pics:
