Wabbit Season

Shhhh........be vewy, vewy quiet.

I'm hunting wabbits.

It's wabbit season you know.

Silly wabbits tried to slip into my house.....but they didn't make it to the snack drawer...

wabbits and wrappers and chocolate everywhere....

it was quite the massacre...

maybe next time they should try to get help from the marshmallow peeps.....

muwahahahahahaha (evil laugh)

My Testimony

As I was reading my Bible this morning I read this verse....2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 "The coming of the lawless
one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and
wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused
to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe
the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness."

I grieved over this.  Before I was saved, I thought, at the end times people could clearly see what was happening
and ask for forgiveness and be saved....but according to that verse that is not so.  After turning away from God so
many times and refusing to love the truth God himself will send a delusion so that you will never see the truth.

I want everyone to be saved. I prayed and prayed  this morning and I just kept getting the urging to give my testimony.

Which I have never done before.  So dear God....please give me the words to say......amen.

When I was 13 I was saved at a revival at Springhill Methodist Protestant Church.

And then I went on with my life.  I tried very hard to do "right" but failed so many times and even
forgot about any of it for months at a time.  And there lies the problem.  My salvation was not an "it"....it
was not "doing" the right thing.....it was not showing up at church......it was not giving up all of my
bad habits....but I didn't realize that.  You could ask me if I was 100% positive that I was saved
 and I would waiver just a little bit.
I would say "I think so but how does anyone know if they are doing everything right enough?"  I would have
great time periods of being a good "Christian" or so I thought.

And time marched on...I got married....I had children.....we went to church most of the time....

Fast forward 30 years later.

I'm still up and down.  I love the Lord.  I think I'm safe.

Then, for some reason, I make a commitment to start reading my Bible more.
Then, I decide to turn my radio in my car to WMBV Christian Radio and listen.
I started  my mornings off with a preacher on television.
And these  things have dramatically changed my life.

What you surround yourself with is what comes forth in your life.

I am not putting down the Church in any way....because it and the people there are my foundation.
I would not be at this next step without them.

The more I heard and read the more I understood and wanted to know more.

I started a new relationship in my life.   My relationship with Christ.  Key word - relationship.

I had to put in time in this relationship......not just Sundays.

Would you wake up with your loved one and not say anything.....or even talk to them for days at a time?  No!

So our relationship began.  Then I started praying for wisdom and knowledge about our relationship and it
was like a light turned on after trying to read in darkness.

I started reading only Christian books to further my education on our relationship.

That was only about 7 years ago that I made this total commitment to Christ......that I said "I Do"...that I will love , honor and cherish you.

I can tell you that I am 100% saved!!  I will go to heaven and be with my Savior.......praise the Lord!

I can also tell you that I am far from perfect.  I mess up.....a lot.  I have terrible days but I still have my relationship
with Christ.  He will not leave me.  If you act ugly or have a bad day with your spouse or loved one does that mean the
relationship is over....NO!  You make up.....you do better......you love each other.....you talk to each other....you continue
on with your relationship.  That's how  Christ is.......he loves you.......talk to him.

We try to make this hard and it's so easy.........and it's the most wonderful thing you can ever do in your life.

It doesn't mean our lives will be perfect or have sadness and trouble.

But it does mean that we will never have to face anything alone or be unloved.....what else could you want in life?

Please don't wait as long as I did......you may not have that much time.

Please ask Christ to come into your life today if you don't have that relationship.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish but have everlasting life."  John 3:16

Good Monday Morning!

Wow...it's cold this morning!

I got up early...did some stretches and jogged/walked 3 miles.

Then I made a protein shake and cleaned up the entire house.

And then I woke up and sat on the couch and ate Fruit Loops....:)

Good Monday morning to you....:)

BE STILL....

Are You In?

I know it way too early to even think about Summer yet.....I know, I know, it's not even Spring but I am hoping we can start a new trend for this Summer and we need to get an early start.

I mean we could start dieting and exercising and going to tanning salons to get ready.

And we usually start all of that about this time of year.

Or..........

We could all band together and bring these swimsuits back in style...:)

Now who's with me?
