Hello Beloved,
Today I am going to write about being rooted in God's Word.
All we seem to hear about today is " The Last Days". That is good but, it is not enough. We need to take a look at what we NEED to survive the Last Days, not physically but spiritually . In the book of Revelation 2:5 it tells us to REPENT ( regret, be sorry, change) and do your first works. ( read it )
What were your first works? When you accepted / received Christ Jesus as your personal Savior, what did you do? You showed Him to everyone, everywhere you went. You showed the LOVE of Christ. In your attitude, words, your service, your money, willingness to LISTEN to God, Your desire to know more about Him. You were so in love with Christ. What happened?
You started the race very well. You were excited and full of the Spirit of God and showed it. LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, GENTLENESS, GOODNESS, FAITH, MEEKNESS AND TEMPERANCE. Fruits of the Spirit. Galatians 5: 22-23. These are what came out of you and these are what we need to get back too.
We need to Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks for everything, DO NOT QUENCH ( extinguish, put out, stop ) the Spirit, Despise not prophesying ( the preaching of the Good News), Prove ALL things and hold fast to that which is good, Abstain ( voluntarily do without) from the appearance of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24
Did you notice that what we need to do is taken from both books in the chapter 5? Five (5) is the number of GRACE.
God sent His son, Christ Jesus, to die for us. We are evil people, sinners; BUT Christ Jesus cam and took our sins ; Yes, OUR sins , even tho we had not been born yet. He died for us. He had done no wrong and yet He took our punishment.. He went the the cross knowing all of our sins and He paid for them in FULL with HIS shed blood. THAT IS GRACE.
Now is not the time to be falling away from the Word of God. Don't fall for the wiles of the world. Easy is NOT always the best way to go. If you want something you have to work for it.. Relationships need work too. You have to spend time with God to learn about Him. Don't let others fill you with themselves... LISTEN to the Word of God. Your pastor, teacher, apostle, prophet, or evangelist can NOT get you your salvation.. They can show or teach you how to get salvation ( and that is what their job is) BUT only the Blood of Jesus Christ can bring salvation. Romans 5:9; 1 John 1:7; Exodus 12:13
This relationship should be the one you really want... This relationship is ETERNAL. The ones we have here now, are just temporary .. Once you have a relationship with Christ Jesus ,,,NOTHING can separate you , NOTHING. Romans 8:35-39 Read it. The ones we have here can be separated. By anger, lies, divorce, death, and on and on.. So your relationship with Christ Jesus is the most important one you can or will ever have.
Start your relationship with Christ today.. Just talk to Him and tell Him your sorry and ask Him to forgive you and come live inside your heart right ow. John 3:16 says that WHOSOEVER believes in Him should not perish.. You are a WHOSOEVER. Yes, there is more but today ask Christ into your heart and know that it is a promise.. Start getting rooted in Christ. Being rooted and grounded in Christ is not belonging to a church but belonging to THE CHURCH. It is all about being in LOVE with Christ Jesus.. Now finish the race you started. Maybe not to fast but slow and steady will win the race. In Christ Jesus love and blessings to you .. vickie

Who Am I ?
Hello Beloved,
This past week a young girl took her own life.. Now before you go and judge her maybe you need to STOP and think first.. This young girl was being bullied. Now it maybe that you have never been bullied or maybe you are the bully. At any rate being a bully is just plain not right.
I sat down just after I heard about this young girl and this is what came out... May not make any sense to anyone but it did to me when I wrote it out. Enough said.
Who am I?
Who am I that anyone would want to be around?
Who am I that you would want to talk with?
Who am I that you would say hi to?
Who am I that you would want to be friends with?
Who AM I?
I am that girl who stands by herself at the door in school.
I am the girl that everyone pushes her chair away from her desk.
I am the girl who sits by herself at lunch.
I am the girl who is always picked last in gym class.
I am the girl who gets laughed at in class because I forgot the answer to the teacher's question.
I am the girl who is to skinny and my clothes don't fit well.
I am the girl who is overweight and has pimples on my forehead.
I am the girl who is wearing funky glasses to hid behind.
I am the girl who stutters when I try to talk.
I am the girl who is so lonely.
I am the girl with no friends.
I am the girl that wishes just one person would talk to me and get to know me.
I am the girl who wishes she was not so scared to ask you to be my friend.
I am the girl who is so timid and shy.
I am the girl who stands here and cries and no one hears.
Who Am I?
I am someone who is just looking for a friend to accept me as I am.
WHO are YOU? Will you be my friend?
Being the odd one out is no fun... We all need a friend to make it in this world... Teach your young ones what it is like for the one who is hurting.... Tell them that words DO hurt and they never leave. Being different is not a bad thing... being a bully is.. Teach your children , it starts with you in the home.... teach them to be kind to everyone. Someday that kid you have bullied just may be the one who has to save your life someday,.. Maybe as a doctor, lawyer, policeman, or fireman or maybe even your boss.. Treat everyone that way you want to be treated, with love and kindness.
In the love of Christ Jesus.. vickie

Isaiah Chapter 10 and then 12
Hello Beloved,
I want to share with you what was taught in church tonight. We have been blessed in our church with a man who can put things together so even I can understand them. He has been to places and seen things and can make the Word come alive because of his experiences. Yes, we are truly blessed.
As today is November 22, 2015, this is what was taught in church tonight. I do hope you will pay attention. PLEASE go and get your Bible and follow along. Please, thank you.
We were in the book of Isaiah, chapter 10 and then chapter 12. I wrote notes down so I am just going to try and go by my notes. okay? I hope I wrote it down correctly. Let's start with 10:1 Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees.... lets start there.. unrighteous decrees, that is unlawfulness. Haven't we seen this take place already in our country this year? Yes, we have. Of course you know about what I speak. 10:2-3 read these verses and think about it... it is happening TODAY! v.4 Without me. Who is the me? It is Jesus. Whose hand is stretched out still? Jesus. v. 5 Who are the Assyrian? Folks that is Syria . " O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, (whose anger? the staff in their hand is mine indignation "Who is this talking about? Jesus Christ. He is holding them in the palm of His hand. Yes, He is. v. 6 I will send him against and hypocritical nation ( Guess who? Yep, USA) and against the people of my wrath will I give him charge to take the spoil... Folks are you even paying attention to what is going on in the world right now? This is ALL happening right before your very eyes!!!!! WAKE UP!!! Pay attention! God means it. Do you keep saying the "I" word all the time? Well quit it!! You are not to be worshipped.. When you say I all the time you are making yourself an idol.. So STOP IT!! There is so much more in this chapter. The same with 13 so much in it.. If this is of interest to you , you can always go to www.sermon.net/GMM and listen to this man on there. It would be of great benefit to you for sure. The Word of God is being played out right before your very own eyes every day. So it is time for a WAKE UP call to self! God says what he means and means what he says. Are you ready ? Jesus is coming back and it will be soon!! Please if you have not accepted Christ Jesus as your Savior do it NOW! He loves you so much.
Where do you stand? With whom do you Stand? How strong is your faith? What about your courage? Please get ready, Jesus Christ died for the world, you are a part of the world.
I love you all with the love of Christ Jesus. vickie

Unconditional Love Luke 15:11-31
Good Morning Beloved,
Want to talk about Luke 15: 11-32 today. If you have your Bible out you can read it, okay? It is the parable of the lost son. A son goes to his father and asks for his part of the inheritance. Father gives it to him and the son departs for another country. He lives it up and parties hardy.. He wastes all of his inheritance on nothing. Soon he runs out of money ( famine) and he now is in need of ....., So he have to take a job. Well he was so hungry that if it had been offered he would have been happy to eat what the swine ( pigs) ate. He thinks to himself , back home on my father's place the servants are fairing better than I. So he decides what he will say to his father and he heads for home. He is not worthy to be called a son, so he thinks. As he approached closer to his father's place , his father sees him coming. He is so happy that his son is alive and alright, before the son reaches home the father is running out to meet him.. The son is dirty and smelly and hungry and scared but the father does not see that... No, he sees someone he thought was gone forever standing in front of him . Someone whom he loved so much and now he is returned...
Now, do you have a child that you felt like was lost? Someone who left and maybe some hard words were said between you? Time has passed by but the pain of not knowing has not left. The love you felt for that someone has not left. The desire to be with that someone is still there. Maybe the other someone feels that way too but pride is standing in the way.. Or maybe it is fear of not knowing what you will do or say. Maybe it is guilt that keeps them away or maybe it is just that they need a nudge in your direction..
Now, the son is home and the father dresses him in the finest robe ( probably the father's own robe ) and he has sandals for his feet, and he has the ring put on him( this is what they used for authority) and the father says kill the fatted calf we will have a party in honor of my son returning.. Now, does this sound like a father who is still upset with his son? Sounds like a father with unconditional love to me..
Your someone wants to come home and make peace between you what will you do? Will you fix up a nice huge meal and invite your friends over to celebrate with you? Will you fix a place for your someone to lay his head? Will you have new clean clothes there for them to wear? Will you have your arms opened wide to receive them?
Call them and tell them all is forgiven. You take the low road ( the one where you take the first step towards reconciliation ) tell them you love them , show them you love and forgive them and let things start afresh ( a new beginning) between you.
This is what happened in Luke.. The father forgave his son and welcomed him home with love and forgiveness. You can do the same...
God Bless and remember to Smile : It is a free gift from God for you to share . Blessings to you. your sister in Christ , vickie

Reflections of the Year 2015
Good Evening Beloved,
In about 40 minutes it will be a New Year, 2016. I have been thinking over the past year and this is how it has been.
I lost loved ones , my precious brother-in-law , Gerald passed away and my oldest friend , Vickie passed away this year too. I had other friends pass on and I made new friends. I found out I had Diabetes and I am still learning to live with that. I found that I could stand in front of people and talk. I lost weight but I found it ....again. ~~~~ sigh~~~~
I got to see two of my wonderful, beautiful sisters this past summer. O" what a treat that was! I welcomed a new member of our family earlier this year, my Grand dog Sable. My husband of 44 years retired this year.. This has been a big adjustment. My granddaughter got her driving permit this year! My, O' my where has the time gone! I stumbled and fell a lot this year ( not on the ground or anything) but as a person. I made many mistakes but I am learning I hope from them.
I got a new floor!!! O my, my what a wonderful new floor it is!! I love it! I have watched my grandchildren grow and mature. I love them so. I have had many ups and downs this year...
I think one of the best moments of the year for me has been here at the end of the year.. I have found that God loves me even when I am bad. Found it out and I believe it for the first time in my life. I really am loved by God. I believed Jesus Christ died for me. Sound silly? I had a HUGE inferiority complex.. I am working on it! I have fallen in Love with Jesus Christ all over again.. All in all it has been a year of growth for me.. I have learned a lot and I hope to keep learning in the New Year. I don't know if anyone ever really reads the posts I put on but if by chance you do.. I am praying that you will find peace and strength in Jesus Christ for the year of 2016. That is my New Year Wish . With the love of Christ Jesus , your sister in Christ Vickie
Be Blessed this New Year!!!! Smile: it is a free gift for you to share with all you meet and you are the most beautiful when you do.

Review: Seeing Yourself Through God's Eyes
Good Afternoon Beloved,
Today is New Year's Eve, the last day of the Year 2015. I want to wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR for 2016!
December 1, I started a 31 Day Devotional by June Hunt, called Seeing Yourself Thorough God's Eyes.
It was a wonderful time in each and every day. Some of things I learned along the way this past 31 days was : That through Jesus Christ I am secure because: I am adopted by God, I am a child of God., I am precious and accepted by God. God calls me by my name!! I have confidence : why? Because I am chosen by God. I am born anew and saved by grace and also I am justified by God. I am redeemed and forgiven by God. I am washed whiter than snow and have been reconciled to God. I have worth , God has given me a new heart, and the Holy Spirit. I am given strength from God. I have been given access to God and Grace and Mercy and given the mind of Christ. I have value because I was created to do good works for Christ and to be an ambassador for Christ . I have value because I am being conformed to Christ, and I am complete in Christ. I am holy before God and clothed with the righteousness of God. I am safe in the protection of God and secured in the Love of God.
Most of you may have already believed all this, I did not... I am a work in progress and I am still feeling my way in The Word. I am grateful for where I have been and I am thankful I still have a ways to go. My journey has been long and varied.... Lord Jesus thank you for thinking of me while you were on the cross . I would not take anything for my journey and I am looking forward to the rest of it.
Smile: You are the most beautiful when you do.. It is a free gift from God for you to share with all you meet. God bless you and again Happy New Year 2016!

Prayer: Tough Love
Hello Beloved,
My heart is heavy tonight for a friend. I hope that this will help her with the thing she struggles with tonight.
This is a open prayer for all parents and grandparents who are or have been raising a child or children.
Dear Father in heaven,
My child ______ is having trouble right now, struggling with making sound decisions . We have tried to instill in them the necessary skills to lead a productive life on their own, But Father , I am afraid in my loving them I may have loved them to much and indulged them more than was really good for them. So I too struggle with what to do. I want to help them but if I do I am afraid I will just make things worse. So I am asking Father for help from you , to help them not fail but to grow and to comfort them with the right choice.
I know we all have wants and needs, but sometimes our wants get in the way of what is needed. Please show them what is needed in their life right now. They may say well I need a new car, when it really is I want a new car. Or maybe it is I need to have my friends over because they did this for me, when it should be I really need to pay the rent so I can have a place to have them over. Sometimes all of our thinking gets mixed up.. Father help them to UN mix their mind.
I will not always be around for them but YOU are always present with them. Hebrews 13:5 I will never leave you or forsake you.
Father please help them to understand it is NOT because we do not love them it is because we DO love them that we have to make this decision and it IS tough to make. I pray Father you will wrap your arms around them and that they will accept this lesson in TOUGH LOVE as gift. I lift up my child to you and as YOUR child I have complete trust in you.
Thank you Father for your Grace and Mercy. I pray your will be done for my child in the Name of Christ Jesus. Amen
This is not a perfect prayer but it is something to start with. Make it your own. Tell our father what the problem is and ask Him to take over. I know from a personal experience what this does. I know how hard it is to give someone you love heart and soul over to the Father. But I also can tell you it is worth the journey. My prayer for you right now is this.
Dear Lord, whoever is reading this and having trouble with someone they love I pray that as they turn their loved one over to you that you would put peace in them where they have pain and frustration. Love and lots of it for the trials ahead. Guide them in the decisions they will have to make and keep the guilt from overcoming them. I pray that they will hold strong to loving this child with a love that is tough. I pray in Jesus name your will be done. Amen
My heart is heavy tonight for a friend. I hope that this will help her with the thing she struggles with tonight.

Love and lots of it for the trials ahead. Guide them in the decisions they will have to make and keep the guilt from overcoming them. I pray that they will hold strong to loving this child with a love that is tough. I pray in Jesus name your will be done. Amen
