End of the Age Today!

We do know we are living in the end times.  Where?  Only God knows the day and time.  Yet, in the news Harold Camping has declared that today is the day of the Lord's return.  I don't fault him for wanting to be a prophet, or for wanting to be the one leading the people to salvation, or for looking forward to the Lord's return; but, he has ventured from the path of just trusting God. 

If you are a christian, you will know that we will see the signs, but will not know the date and time.  My  prayer is that Harold Camping and those who are trying to reveal God's plan, without God's declaration that it be revealed, will find solace from God when they realize they are mere mortals.

He's Alive! Our Sins Are Forgiven!

The following is "Four Days Late" By Aaron Wilburn and sung by Aaron Wilburn:

May we all be a witness to the power of God, whatever the cross we carry. When we go through the fire, that is the time our hearts are open to Heaven and we are closest to God.

 
Matthew 9  (Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic) 1 So He got into a boat, crossed over, and came to His own city. 2 Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.

3 And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, “This Man blasphemes!”

4 But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’? 6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” 7 And he arose and departed to his house.

 8 Now when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power to men.

Whatever the trials, His grace and His love will get us through it.

Do not give up, He is with us always! Lord Come Soon!   

Matthew 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.



The Rain Finally Came!

The forecasters have been pushing back their prediction of rain, again, and again.  Finally, it rained last night!  We put off spraying the weeds because rain has been in the forecast all week.  They have now gone to seed.   At least we aren't alone, as it appears the neighbors are in the same boat.





We finally got our garden in.   Corn, peas, carrots, lettuce, onions, beans, tomatoes and potatoes.  Yesterday we added strawberries!   As you can see there is lots of work to be done, yet.  The bunch grass, in the front, has to be pulled and then we will put in a little grass and a patio. 


The rains are going to last until the 1st of June, so this gives us a breather to get some other stuff done. 


God is good and I thank Him for this rest; and, the refreshing and watering of our garden, trees and flowers.
