So, as other families are in the full routine of school and academics, we are not. Our season of traditional mandatory school is complete. It's a little surreal, to be honest. I have more time now to work on projects and study things that are interesting to me. And with that, I am still continually asking the LORD what I should study. I love the Psalms. I've been studying there in my "A Year in Psalms"... but there is something pressing .. something in my heart that just doesn't stop..
It is so big and important that I've been leery of sharing online. Because most do not want to read about it, hear about it, be reminded of it and are happy to stay in their little circles of #getyourearstickledhere. Though most would ardently argue they don't belong to any such groups, I have observed in my little town that they couldn't be more wrong.
When I was still in school and then when I began our own homeschooling, one thing that helped me in the subject of learning and teaching math was that math is constant. It didn't change with the centuries, one plus one is always two. Measuring, counting, and figuring was always the same. If you know the formula, then you will find the answer. and in principle -- easy peasy.
There is something of greater value and preeminence that is more constant, more stable, more sure than mathematics. And yet, more and more have chosen to ignore the essential truth to life. . . are you ready for it? wait for it ...
GOD ALMIGHTY and His Written Word
(Malachi 3:6, Psalm 119:160, Hebrews 13:8)
Do you know what time it is?
- politics?
- football?
- pumpkin everything and baking?
- three months of decorating and festivities?
"While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation." -Hebrews 3:15
The time is HEAR THE VOICE OF THE LORD. Why? So that we will not be carried away by the wickedness of this world, the deceitfulness of riches, nor be given over to believe a lie.
You're probably saying right now,
thanks Cristina, but I'm good...I'm ok... don't worry about me, I'm going to the ladies conference this fall, I've joined the media team at my church, I host a lifegroup...yada, yada, yada...bla...bla...bla...
WHATEVER! my eyes are rolling....can you see them...so what..that only means you are joining the #getyourearstickledhere group.
I must speak abruptly, directly, and sharply because the time is URGENT and what needs to be said NEEDS TO BE HEARD.
JESUS IS COMING TO CATCH AWAY HIS BRIDE -- AT ANY MOMENT ..Jesus bride is the true Church of born again, Bible (only) believing Christians who are awaiting his return with joy. This does not include those who have one foot or both feet in the world.
A very humbling and sobering reminder is that we MUST watch and pray that we might be counted worthy to escape the wrath to come. Jesus said that. And yes, I'm an escapist!! Gladly.
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. -Luke 21:36
I strongly urge you to read Revelation chapters 1-4
- Do you agree that the Church of the New Testament is the body of Christ? Christians? the Bride of Christ?
If so, to whom is Jesus speaking in the first four chapters of Revelation?
And since we read plainly that Jesus is speaking to the Church -- you and me -- if you are a Christian, then we MUST HEED HIS ADMONITION!!
Humble yourself, repent, watch and pray,
don't be
dull of hearing,
don't be of those to whom the LORD will give over to believe a lie.

The LORD is merciful and it is his goodness that leads us to repentance. (Romans 2:4)
Call upon the LORD JESUS CHRIST and you shall be saved. (Romans 10:13)
Because God loves you to save you out of yourself and hell -- hell is very real and is reserved for all who refuse to repent, forgive, and fear God
