The Analogy Of The Rose Garden

Sometimes I just can't believe what is going on in the world today!

I was washing my hair the other day... and ya know all good things come from me washing my hair... I mean, I have had more "Ah Ha' moments washing my hair. My first thought is my mind is vey calm... its because I am very relaxed and clear headed! My second thought is... I do pray a lot when I am in the shower. I think that is something that makes me different. Its like when I drive... there is no radio. I take it as time to talk to GOD too... even on the toilet... I pray to GOD.... GOD doesn't care where you are when you pray... but what the 'hey... you do it within yourself'.

It is nice to be able to go to a place of worship and sit still in peace and meditate in the spirit! Wonderful! But sometimes when you've got kids hollerin' and phones ringing and dogs barking... its the best time to pray to GOD for some help! HAHAHA

I have said it before and I will say it till I die. GOD is not something you can find 'out there' people been looking 'out there' for GOD, but the trick is to find HIM WITHIN!

We learn about the man Jesus... and we follow His essence!

Now, ya know if I don't get this stuff out of my head it hangs around until I do get it written down. I feel like I am just allowing 'the SPIRIT' to guide my fingers, sometimes I read after I write to edit and I think... wow... who'd a thunk it! As I am a servant of GOD.

Now... to be honest, I've never been to a garden party. But I know it happens in life a lot for many of GODS children. And I thank GOD for them... it is nice to see that some people actually live like that. It seems to be such a beautiful thing. A lovely place to be... meeting and greeting all brothers and sisters in Christ... no matter whom they turn out to be! Surprise me! HAHAHA

But getting down to some serious business... it was like a vision... it wasn't a dream, I wasn't dreaming. It was a real vision. Like the vision of the '7 spirits of GOD'... it was that cool!

And I saw the world as unto a 'rose garden' there are so many different life forms in the garden. And if you pluck a flower and put it in your hair or on your lapel or in a vase... there will another flower grow. There are so many different flowers to choose from.... looking closer, the rose bush is like our planet earth... you have some mighty 'pricks' from the thorns... and you have the best blooms of the rose.... now 'the rose' is like Jesus … the main event of the bush! All that is beautiful and lovely and gentle… lots of nice things there... and the fact of the matter, that there are so many roses that do bloom... each and every one who emulates Jesus... so much beauty in the world! And what does the rose bring us???

The rose brings us the very essence of  GOD!

Its like a smell that is very lovely, but you cant see the smell unless you look at the rose!

When one can enter into the Rose Garden... they experience the essence... what we can see when we don't really see... when we close our eyes and just live in the moment...

Do what ya gotta do, Baby!

So as we are attracted to the garden... we can know it even if we're blind to the things around us... we still can find the place where GOD wants us to be... in the very essence of LIFE.. and of course HE tells us within, what we need to know.

Some people can tell us to do things that are morally or ethically wrong... but legal in the law... and because we know GOD personally... we know in our hearts and minds what is the right thing to do. We will know, even if we are not told, that we are not in a good place... but we know inside our soul... (the very essence of GOD)... that some people do, do the wrong thing, and then we are told to get away from those people and wipe the dust off our feet and get on our way. And soon those corrupt people will die and the ones who know Jesus can sorta re-enter Him within the people. Funny I went to write another word but 're-enter' came up instead and I knew it was the right word to put there.

Ya see? I am nothing without GOD!

I do hope I get to see it! I want to be able to see The New Heaven and the New Earth... as old will pass away and the resurrection of  THE SPIRIT of Jesus... can you imagine a world where everyone emulates Jesus? Oh what a perfect world it would be! People being good to people in the sense that what is good for you is good for me! The very place where you can see a smile and it shows to be genuine! A place where no one worried about their children for the whole of the people cared about the whole of the people!

As in We The People... a people born of men and raised up by GOD to be a PPP... (practically perfect person) And we live on 'through our children as we teach them the right ways to be.

Learn about Jesus... The Man! Find GOD through the Holy Ghost!

Be of one accord in THE LOVE OF GOD...

and Be Ye awesome!

GOD Bless US, Everyone... IJCNA :)

My Dream Last Night

I had this dream last night and it was one of those that is to real, I think they might be called 'Lucid dreaming'. But, I think they are a gift from GOD for Us to learn something from.

It started when I was disturbed within my soul in my space of peace. I am remembering getting up and someone draped me in one of those old animal skins... it was very big and covered me. I went outside and saw a bunch of people professing to love GOD but didn't believe in the spirit. You know the Holy Ghost that came with the blood of Jesus. I feel like when we Know GOD through Jesus, that is your time for the struggles of life. No one has a perfect life, but there are those, very wise ones who follow the ancient laws and also have been saved by the Holy Ghost. This is a very important thing for us to know. It's very important to give Jesus his just due, to use his path as a way and means of a struggle through darkness.

We all have something we're working on every day to make a better life for US... not just you or your preacher... but for all who live to take a breath in this world.

The battle has been fought since the beginning of time.

And if we don't want other people telling us what to do, we do need the help and guidance of GODS Spirit. We must understand that there is a lot of bad things in the world and not only has GOD spelled it out to us, but some don't want to take the time to hear someone else's story as we are only interested in our own. GOD doesn't want us to be stupid. HE wants us to be wise to the lies in the darkness.

YES... some people will lie to you and it would be a great thing to have  GOD on your side.

You might remember a post not long ago where I had found a place where I can com in here and write in peace. And I was upset by the woman across the street because sitting at this window I have direct view of her house. I have been praying and I know some of you pray for me too... and I did find a way to walk by and see her house and now, I only feel sorry for her. She does not know Jesus because a woman who knows Jesus is not going to call the police on 2 ten year old boys for playing basket ball in the street, because they might hit her truck with the ball. I was like aren't they supposed to actually hit the truck before calling the police? We all know it takes a village... and a Godly woman would just be happy the children have a place to play and are happy. We are not on a busy street and 10 year old's know to watch out for cars. But no... she not only called 1 time but 3 times on me for asking her in a loud voice what kind of person calls the police on 10 year old's who are not being bad???

I didn't mean to go off like that, I just wanted everyone to know, in case they didn't read that blog.

So I appreciate GOD helping my inside of my spirit to over come the anger she gave me.

I'm really over it now...

Back to my dream.

So I went out side and saw this local politician of ours with a handful of people listening to her... But it was nothing as compared to the PEOPLE who came and stood with me to remind this person that YES the SPIRIT of GOD IS a BIG DEAL! And she couldn't prove me wrong so she came and smacked me, ohhh I wanted to hit her back and I did get close to her face, and I guess I stepped on her toes. Some people don't want us to have GODS SPIRIT because GOD informs us and shows us that this person or people are wrong. And they deep down know they are wrong... but for them they think its OK for them to lie or cheat or kill or harm other people who are different than them.

GOD gives you the inside scoop! And this is not just for me or people like me... who have suffered and survived... its for everyone in the world who cant figure life out! It is so important to have the ancients guide you as now its YOUR turn to live and choose. Each in our turn must choose. And you can see that people who go out into the world with no guidance, they tend to only see as far as their own noses.

So after the confrontation, as I did confront her with her lies... the woman fell into a pit and it was trampled by onlookers who were following me. I made 3 turns... and I knew that others were doing their best to help the woman, but she was there because of her own actions. And this is how it goes. When we fall, its usually our own self tripping over our own shoe laces.

So the media came and the people went back in their own homes and it was an amazing feeling! It was like the calm after the storm where it was a living disaster but in the end, we all knew what to do.  I remember there was a family who offered me their video equipment to record the moment, but it had only happened... so fast and so hard. And I didn't know how to work the thing. And I praised GOD for giving me the moment! And although I didn't get it on video the message was out there. And that made people talk about it... at least we have learned something good by the spirit!

For me it was another day in paradise.

I do feel like I live in  paradise even if out there is very hard and vicious. I know that there are many like me who believe that Jesus left us the Holy Spirit for each and every one of us regardless of  color or creed or doctrine or tradition. GOD LOVES ALL equally. What matters is if you choose LOVE over hate...  PEACE over chaos... building for the better... not tearing down cause you don't like other people who are different than you.

WE all have the freedom to choose to have a better life. And just because you are ridiculed and picked on for following the way that is good... I guarantee that one day those who choose themselves over others... will one day learn the mistakes they made and it won't be good. Because there are natural consequences for every action. Get it? For every action there is a reaction. And if you choose bad, then you can bet that one day you will learn the lesson and it will be bad.

A case in point. It is a too common thing for our children to die of drugs and other things. I bet there are a million moms out there who have suffered this terrible tragedy.  And the victim … didn't even mean to do it.

We need to know what will kill us in this world.

We need to find GODS SPIRIT inside of us. Its so easy when you just call out to HIM with an honest heart! I don't think it works tho, if you do it for show, just pretending to pay attention.

Why look OUT THERE? Why look OVER THERE!

The deal is… we find the good inside our own selves! We label the GOODNESS, GOD... there is lots under this label of the human language. But it is written, All things that are GOOD  HONEST and TRUE are of GOD. All things beautiful and lovely also, lead us into the way that is GOOD!

I know, I know... we're all going to understand one day... and when we all do know that Jesus led as an example to us... we will start to see THE SPIRIT within... The second coming of Jesus will come when we all know and understand the basic fight of good against evil.

Let's just start LOVING ONE ANOTHER as Jesus taught us to do. And caring about others, its what LIFE is all about... THE PEOPLE and their ways. No matter what our color or creed or doctrine or tradition... we all have the capability to LOVE!

If you look, you will see... some who have found their way and live a good life! Because of the choices they choose.... or things they choose NOT to do. And that is all the things that you could do to hurt or harm others.

Choose wisely my PEEPS... for you will have the consequences for a lifetime!

I LOVE Y'all and GOD LOVES US TOO and wants us to succeed and have a good life!

Praise GOD,  Thank U Jesus! GOD Bless US Everyone!

Steady She Goes

So strange to have life be so limited these days. 

Some people don't care. They're gonna do what they want to do, regardless of what anyone says. I suppose its their right but if they become sick, they only have themselves to blame. 

For me, I am wearing a mask when I go out. But it sure leaves me short of breath.

Surely if I'm going to get sick I will regardless of what I do or where I go.

All I do know is, I have a right to my PEACE and if anyone messes up that, I am going to do all I can to stop them and get them away from me. I don't want to hurt any ones feelings but I must admit I have stepped on a few toes in my life time. And in the end it was for the best, being important for a lesson learned.

With all the bad in the world, in my world I have learned to stay positive and wait for the bad times to pass, after that something good always happens. Its a strange cycle of life but I think GOD is testing us to see who/what we choose to serve, the evil or the good. We see it all over the place. And we do have the freedom to choose our way. It bothers me when someone I love chooses the bad side of life. You know I think now I understand the reasoning around the old clichés, 'Fight fire with fire' or 'an eye for an eye.' And it seems like GOD shows us at the time needed how that works.

Its odd to me how people love to complicate things. For me, I just want a simple life hanging out with my kids and grandkids. My son and his family live 4 houses down so I see them almost everyday! My daughter is back home with me, with her kids! You know those children, "For such is the kingdom of heaven." 

I spend my time cooking cleaning laundry and trying to keep up. Something I have done all of my life. So its just regular habits. Of course I thank GOD for others who don't have to do basic housework. I know that life is to short to complain. So I do what GOD tells me to do everyday. Its not hard to do, to just do what GOD puts in front of you to do. So I am at peace and feel the love of others who come around me. I thank GOD for them as they use me for examples to others to help others to know there is a tommorrow... and each new day gives us another chance to do good things. So that those who know us will honestly mourn and miss us when we pass. HAHAHA am I not tricky? Only with the best intentions I can say for sure!

The great thing is with Jesus, we have the Holy Ghost that directly connects us to GOD!

YES... direct contact with our maker... the giver of LIFE!

Its not difficult to be a good decent person as GOD instructs us to be. The hardest part is fighting off the demons. And even that is not so bad because GOD is in control and will win every time in the end. So stand strong on the WORD OF GOD... Be happy and pleasant with others.

There is nothing good that can come of the evil ways except more evil. And soon you have the whole thing conquered and as you age you do become a PPP (practically perfect person) Hey... was not Job a PPP? Yes he was! Don't let anyone tell you that no ones perfect because that is only during the battle. But the point is to be practically perfect, even if we mess up a bit GOD is still there for us to show us a better way. And we live... and we learn... as we grow old in our time.

Its not always the same path, as we are different cultures and creeds... there are many doctrines and traditions. The very things that GOD doesn't care about. So don't judge others. We know GODS people by their LOVE for one another. 

With perfect LOVE there is no war or abuse. I grew up with terrible verbal and emotional and physical abuse. So I know what I'm talking about. My abuse caused me to marry men who were abusive. Now I have PTSD and anxiety problems. But I am happy to say I am learning to forget the bad things and I just hope that all people can learn to just not go there. Don't allow yourself to become attached to someone who abuses you.

With GOD there is LOVE and JOY and intimacies and us being human there is also falling down. But soon you learn 'steady as she goes'... and your life will be filled with all good things! Because GOD not only is in your heart HE'S in your brothers and sisters hearts too. Its not about ignorance anymore. We all live in the SPIRIT! Guided by the SPIRIT!

Lets not spread the hate filled destruction. We can turn our backs on those demons who try so hard to bring you down. And the reason we can turn our backs on them is because GODS GOT THAT!

GODS got our backs and sends HIS angels to watch over and protect US!

Really Folks.... its just that simple!

Praise GOD and Thank You Jesus! IJCNA
