For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18 KJV
https://bible-strong.app



I Corinthians 1
1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

3 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

5 That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;

6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;

15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.

16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Spring

The whisper of the wind
The echo of the moon.
The wound the song mends
The rain singing it’s tune

The sparkle of the sun
The fragrance of  buds
The nature’s hum
And dancing bear cubs

New life all around
Oh what a wonderful affair
The forest marches to a new sound
Spring is in the air

Eye Opener

How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic?

How have I adapted to the changes brought on by Covid-19 pandemic? I have adapted by having my eyes opened wide to the government’s corruption and greedy ways. I already knew it wasn’t great but I had no idea how bad until then.

 My oldest daughter was just four weeks old.  My husband and I discovered black mold in our house and moved out. We stayed in hotels for about a month until I moved in with my father. Days later we were on lock down. It made it even more difficult living with someone but that also had its benefits. For instance, my interest rate for my house is wonderful.

I watched as the government used scare tactics and multiplication to control people and convince them to get a vaccination.  My company went as far as offering $100 for getting the jab. People were separated from their dying loved ones, forced to live the last few moments all alone. I feared just returning to work could cause the deadly disease to hitch a ride back home to my family. I feared for my husband, as his health wasn’t the greatest, and for my daughter who was so little at the time.

I watched as my county came to an almost stand still. I watched as my government decided who were essential workers and who were not. They closed down schools, stores and churches. I watched as chaos ensued and grocery stores went empty and toilet paper was nearly extinct. I watched as person after person lined up to get their jab. Now blood clots have been reported, aids, heart murmurs,  and so many other side effects. I watched as so called health officials deemed what were safe and effective  measures that we now know now, only made us sicker.

I adapted by becoming more self reliant and more self sufficient. I started doing research and the more I read, the more I uncovered the monstrosities of government agencies, doctors and scientists. I went down a worm hole and found monterey gains at the expected of people’s sickness and lives. I have zero trust in our health system. In fact, I had my last child at home and she has yet to see a doctor. Unless an emergency happens none of my kids will ever go again. There is no point of lining the pockets of people who get paid to keep you sick.

God gave you a perfect body with its own immune system for a reason. God gave us herbs and things in nature to cure us and live us of our ailments. What did the wise men bring to Mary? Frankincense and Myrrh. Did you know that natural pain relief is just one of many powerful uses for Myrrh? It also aids in recovery after postpartum.  Frankincense has great antimicrobial  and antiinflammatory properties. Knowledge like this and much more have been lost due to man creating man made versions of these natural remedies and deeming them superior. It’s hard to profit off of something anyone can go out in the wild and harvest themselves.

I have adapted by becoming more confident in my own capabilities and my faith in God.

Quack of a Duck

The quack of a duck
The flack of a truck
A jack of a buck
A tack of a tuck
A slap of a bluff
In a hidden tuff

The wave of a wand
The whistle of a mistel
The twist is a wrist
The act of dismissal

The chime of the time
The reckoning of reasoning
The bleat of defeat
The howl of the darkness
It’s coming after me

The side of a dime
The passage of time
The clink of a clank
The chink of a chank
The sigh of the guy
who watches it dive

Total desolation
with no resolution
As the dust settles 
Carnage of metal
I know the cost but what’s the cause
For innocent lives lost
The song of silence lies between compliance and defiance.

I let my pen lead me today and this is what came out. Hmmmmm🤔…. I’m not sure what to think about it. I wasn’t going to post it but decided to anyway. As some may have noticed I use meta ai at times to add pictures to my posts. Here is a gem that made me giggle as I was trying to generate the image above.

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV
https://bible-strong.app



II Chronicles 7
1 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house.

2 And the priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled the LORD’S house.

3 And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.

4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before the LORD.

5 And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty and two thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.

6 And the priests waited on their offices: the Levites also with instruments of musick of the LORD, which David the king had made to praise the LORD, because his mercy endureth for ever, when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.

7 Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD: for there he offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brasen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat.

8 Also at the same time Solomon kept the feast seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt.

9 And in the eighth day they made a solemn assembly: for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.

10 And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in heart for the goodness that the LORD had shewed unto David, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people.

11 Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD, and the king’s house: and all that came into Solomon’s heart to make in the house of the LORD, and in his own house, he prosperously effected.

12 And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.

13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;

14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.

16 For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.

17 And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments;

18 Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man to be ruler in Israel.

19 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;

20 Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a byword among all nations.

21 And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and unto this house?

22 And it shall be answered, Because they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them.

Motherhood Mornings

What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?

What are my morning rituals? Well, if I manage to drag myself out of bed before my little ones get up then I prefer to have a moment of peace with my heavenly Father. This luxury is rare as I am usually run out of bed by my soon to be one year old. I wake up and make coffee and breakfast for the children. Then I homeschool my kids until it is time for me to go to work. My mornings are usually chaotic and filled with my children’s needs. Crazy my  mornings may be, but it’s my favorite time of the day. I am blessed to be able to homeschool my children and have the extra time with them. God blesses me and my family exceedingly.

Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.
Psalms 27:14 KJV
https://bible-strong.app


Psalms 27
A Psalm of David.

1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.

3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.

5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

8 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.

10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.

12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

A Place For Me

I wrote this poem for all the orphans in search of a place they belong.



My soul softly whispers of a place unknown.A place my eyes have never been shown.

A constant yearn for things not seen. Not everything is as it seems.

My heart screams its greatest desires,
but I learn to ignore them as life requires.

A place where I can safely sleep.
A place for things I can keep.

A gentle touch, a kiss goodnight
someone to care and hold me tight. 

A simple I love you or I’ll be there
Sometimes the loneliness is to much to bare.

Everyday a struggle just to survive,
But to me it is just a way of life.

I’ve asked so many, help me please. Some have sad eyes and reasons to leave. Most  all turn away not wanting to see.

Long Since Forgotten Morals

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

What aspects do I think make a person unique? Honesty, loyalty, and a good moral stand point. It used to be you could count on a man word. Nowadays a man will lie straight to your face and then be mad that you called him out. Too many people with a bankrupted  morality are creating generations that are Godless and dangerous.

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
2 Corinthians 4:7 KJV
https://bible-strong.app



II Corinthians 4
1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;

2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.

3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus’ sake.

6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

12 So then death worketh in us, but life in you.

13 We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;

14 Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.

15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.

16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
