There was a man that was sitting near the Pool of Bethesda. He had been sitting there for many years watching people go in sick crippled and come out whole. He knew that God can heal. He saw it happen all the time. The waters would be stirred and then those in the pool were healed. This is the God can realm, just a little out of reach....
Then Jesus came along (bringing the Kingdom with Him) and he stopped after seeing the man sitting on his mat. He asked the man " Do you want to be healed?" (only kingdom knowledge would ask such a question, knowing that if the answer was yes, that God will heal him) The kingdom was at hand, within this man's reach. The man made excuses why he was not healed....no one would carry him there.....others got there before him...This is the IF ONLY realm. If only...my husband had not left me, if only my parents had not abused me...if only.... ( excuses)
Jesus knew that there was substance in the kingdom that was there to be taken to be healed but it required one thing....faith and to walk it out. The Lord said, get up....(out of the IF realm and the I can't realm) and pick up your mat ( the comfort zone, the place that has become the prison) and WALK. The man chose to get up, pick up his mat and began to walk. It was after this that we are to become living, walking, testimonies of Jesus and His goodness and power and love.... To live in the IS realm. The place where God will do what He said He will and we begin to live there. Imagine the difference, kingdom living instead of living in the seen realm and only doing what our eyes see. I want to do what I see the Lord doing in the unseen realm and walking it out in the seen realm. The kingdom is at hand...
God is good !

Call it laziness....
Well, lots of time has gone by and I have not blogged. That is a problem as this is a spot for blogging !! I will try and be better this time around !!
2009 is a time for flying and so that means that we leave the cocoon behind and press on to spreading wings and flying, remembering that the wind will keep us up.
2008 was a time of trials and practicing the possiblities. Nothing is impossible for my God !! He has taught me many things this last year and I feel that I have come a ways !!! He is good !!
I look forward to fruitfulness in 2009 and the possibilities are endless !! I just hope that I remember to blog all the things that will happen in 2009. Let the year begin !!

Way too long !!
My oldest daughter married a man from West Virginia in October last year and that was a lot of work , but fun! I had the 2nd in the set of Hiddens in September 2008. It was awesome and the Lord is good ! The first one in Nov 2007 was called " Hidden: The Four Chambers of God's Heart " The next one in Sept 2008 was called " Beyond the Veil ". Basically, we know that the veil has been torn, but few venture and live beyond the veil. The next one coming sometime this year (2009) is called " The Embrace ". I don't know how it will all look like, but that is the good thing as God will show me. I know that it is about embracing the cross . The first one was about Intimacy with the Lord, the second about Intimacy with fruitfulness and the third is about embracing your destiny with the Lord 0r, a deeper Intimacy with the Lord. ( at this point that is what I am getting)
This last Christmas was a different one for us as the weather was so bad that the kids came out early and stayed here for Christmas Eve and then Christmas Day. The power went out for 5 hours on Christmas Eve and there was the trip that Barry took to pick up my son and girlfriend. He needed chains to get there and then 15 mins into the trip, the chains broke and came up and broke his outside mirrror on the truck. It was the first white Christmas in many years, so that was great ! I even went outside and made a snow angel. Hadn't done that since the girls were young!
2009 will be an interesting year, I can tell already ! Time to fly !!!!

The Beginning
There is always a beginning and this is mine. So....in the beginning there was nothing and then I started to type and there became words to read. It was not too bad. There will be more later.
Stay tuned and don't touch that dial!!
