to ponder

So many changes coming too quickly! loved ones dying way before their time (in my mind) kids graduating, moving away, wedding coming up, so many changes YET God does not change! HIS Word stands FOREVER! Are you finding your peace and rest in that FACT??? I am trying my best too, it's hard but I know it's what HE wants for me and for all of us.

Matthew 24:32-33 "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. --- Jesus is not talking about summer coming, HE is talking about His coming.

We have read these verses many times, but do we really take them to heart, to believe what Jesus is telling us? Look around at our world. . . we have never seen things like this before. Jesus said He is coming again, HE IS! We need to be ready because none of us knows when He will come for us individually or as His Bride with the Trump of God sounds we will be caught up to meet Him in the air!

  1. What a wonderful post Kathy..I feel it is getting closer and closer to when Jesus comes back..I am excited about it...Yes horrible things are happening all over the world and close to home..I guess that is the reason I feel so at peace with living off the land God provide for Russ and I...I have come to know my neighbors working in the yard. I will share with them because they are struggling..We can't forget to love our neighbors so they know about Jesus...whether it is by talking or just the way we live..I talk with God all the time when I am working in the garden.. I feel so connect with God in the garden..Sometimes I just take a little wooden bench that Russ made for me and I sit and watch all the things in my garden and they all were created by our almighty...it is such a awesome feeling...I also feel so connect to my father and we didn't have a good relationship at times..but we had a wonderful time in the garden...he taught me so much...I can go on and on...we need to come to Jesus for the peace we need with everything so unsettled in the world and in our lives...My parents passed away to young for me...I can't wait to see them and I can't wait to find out who my birth mother is...But it will be when Jesus wants me to be with my parents again...The best part is my husband will be coming to. that is such a awesome feeling...We are sad tho that his parents passed away not know the peace Jesus can give us...Okay I need to stop....this is LONG post...Kathy you are in my prayers everyday...Hugs, Lisa
