“Treasure out of Darkness”

CHRISTIANITY, disappointments, DONT SAY THE "N" WORD!, faith, GOD, JESUS, JUDAISM, lamp, LIFE, Trust

We all have seasons of darkness, depression, sadness, being forlorn…

We find our way when we get quiet before the Lord.  Put away the Ipad, the cell, the laptop, the pc.  Pick up your favorite book, even if its not the Bible.  GET FOCUSED.  You will find the answers you need in the QUIET.

For about 2 months, I have been in a super dark place after many disappointments.  The Ipad is my ‘g’od.  Truly, if we are honest, we can all say, the Ipad, laptop and so forth are our ‘g’od.

I am finally dumping the Ipad, (save an hour or up to 90 total minutes on it to catch up on emails, facebook, etc.)  I felt God saying to my heart: “Will you serve me by letting go of that Ipad?”  The first day, I was still out of sorts… but the second day, I felt more free.  I have a ways to go…

I believe that in the DARKNESS, not ‘lightness’, God will reveal that which is hurting and hindering you.  Because when we are hurt:  not at peace and in turmoil, it is a darker place, spiritually and mentally.  God wants to bring you freedom and joy in your spirit in this dark world, people.  HE DOES.

DITCH THE DIGITAL! 

Isaiah 45:  “I will go before you and level the mountains; I will break down the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron. 3 I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hidden riches of secret places, so that you may know that I am the LORD, the God of Israel, who calls you by name. 4 For the sake of Jacob My servant and Israel My chosen one, I call you by name; I have given you a title of honor.

This digital art I created today… There she is, in the dark and cold, in her mourning..she finds her ‘red balloon’ (my own personal ‘signature’ for Gods spirit in art 😉  At any rate, in the dark…cold season….She sees the light of Gods answers to all of herproblems.  That is the message from me to you.

Love, ♥

Immigrants, Illegals: The 1965 Immigration Act Doomed America

'immigrants', illegals, immigration ac of 1965

In the Lincoln-Douglas debates, Lincoln said that a nation divided against itself can not endure, but in those days we were mainly divided in just 2 ways, slave vs free states.   Of course there were other smaller divisions such as white man vs red man, but that was nothing compared to what’s going on today, where we are pulling in 20 different directions.

 

In 1965, our government, and notice I said ‘our’ government, not the world’s government opened our borders to the 3^rd world. This was done mainly by GOP support as the southern Dixiecrats wanted no part of this.   As just a junior in high school, I said back then that this is the beginning of the end of The United States. You can not mix the 3^rd world in with the 1^st world.   The 3^rd worlders can not keep up, so standards have to be lowered for them, which means the nation as a whole now has lower standards for all. These 3^rd worlders, with few exceptions, can not adapt to their new country’s culture and language so they demand that we change to theirs, including allowing their flags. Some of these people came here not knowing what a toilet bowl is, so I am certain that they will do just fine in their new host country. As right wing Rabbi Kahane noted back in 1968-‘If we mix with these beasts, we will not bring them up to our level. On the contrary, they will drag us down to theirs.’

 

1965 was the first time our president and legislature acted on behalf of the world instead of the American people and we let them get away with it. We allowed over 800,000 3^rd world dumbbells and savages, per year, into our country legally and never stopped the tens of thousands of illegals pouring over our southern border that adds to the chaos and high levels of crime, including far more murders of real Americans than Muslims could ever hope to accomplish.

 

As we learn more and more about our government due to the internet, we find that they are all either crooks or traitors but most are both.

 

Most Americans care more about what’s happening in the world of football than the collapse of their country.

A Lamp Unto My Feet, A Light Unto My Path

A Lamp Unto My Feet, A Light Unto My Path

My husband and I moved to Arizona to be near family.  Initially, my husband wanted to go to Florida to be near the coral wreaths.  He loves fish.  But, my husband is a ‘happy-go-lucky’ type man.  He is happy anywhere as long as he feels a little financial secure.  He suffered many setbacks as a younger man, losing over a million in the stock crash of August 31, 1998 when the DOW dropped 551 points.  He was passed over in his job position many times when he should have been promoted.  Dave is a genius. They all knew it at his corporation but jealousy is always a factor in the mix.  He’s just super smart.  BUT, he is super nice and ‘nice guys finish last’ in this lousy world.

I urged my husband to move to Arizona and here we have been, in the desert for 10 years because I HAD to be near my family.. Although it is bright with sun in this desert, ….its really dark…. spiritually…. in my opinion..I should have followed David’s urge to be in the South..A woman should let her husband lead the way, ‘happy-go-lucky’ or not.  I was wrong.

To the gist:  “Lamp to our feet is small”

Why would the Psalmist say such a thing? Psalms 119: 105 – Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.  Why?  Because we live in a dark world, filled with lies, confusion, corruption, evil politicians, terrible leadership, money hungry morons, child molesters, rapists, feminists, militant gays and so forth.  Its DARK out there.

A lamp to your feet would be a small lamp because we would not be able to carry large ones since we are held in our flesh by roughly 5 to 6 feet in height.  So, the lamp is small.  Why would you need a ‘lamp to your feet?’  We already have the sun!  Its so dark and cruel in this world, we just have NO clue how dark it really is.  Its not ‘nice’, it is not a ‘wonderful world’… That song is a lie.  The only thing really wonderful about life is babies, youth, flowers and animals.  Life is filled with many disappointments.. Its how we HANDLE this life is what matters.  How we react to the situations around us with that small light.

God puts a lamp to our feet…and it is a SMALL lamp.

In the NT, Jesus says that ‘if you have faith as a mustard seed, you can move mountains’.  God isnt into the ‘big’ lights.  He is into small.  Smaller is harder because it requires trust.  And, NOBODY really ‘trusts’ God.  We just don’t.  We don’t have the mental capacity to trust anything we can’t see.  We’re trapped in this body.

The word shows you the WAY TO GO.  It shows you, not always how to get there but how to walk thru the muck and mire of life’s disappointments.  The word is a small light in this world of darkness.  Not a big light.  But, it CAN get bigger the more you look to God.

Think of yourself hunched over with that small light.  Envision yourself walking with that small light in the dark.  You now see how you can’t walk fast?  You have to feel around you? That’s life if you believe.  Don’t do this ‘fast’.  Be careful around people and situations…’feel your way’.  See?  The word of God is our ONLY brightness.

I hope you envisioned what I am saying because I can’t write more now. Lol.

Ciao!
