Our Blessed Hope

Jesus said to occupy till he comes to catch away his  bride .. Occupy ... hmmmm... with what?

   In 2016 I was eager to begin a Bible study, yet try as I may, I was hindered from sharing my study online via my blog.  It seemed that I could only read for myself and not even dig into a study, per se.  I could only read and listen to the LORD.  Does that make sense?  My mind was so continually bombarded by the events and situations going on in our life that I could not stay focused on study -- only reading to feed my soul the nutrition of the Word of Life.

So, here we are in 2017 and situations have calmed down, and my mind is a little stronger because the LORD is my strength! Oh .. yeah .. and .. time is short... so I am compelled to share with you as long as I am able ..

Short for what? The time when Jesus calls his bride unto himself .. that time .. the time of OUR BLESSED HOPE .

Titus 2:13 "Looking for that BLESSED HOPE, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ."

Jeremiah 17:7 "Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is."

I Peter 1:3 "Blessed be the God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his .abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a LIVELY HOPE by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead."

Jesus Christ and his glorious appearing is our blessed hope!

Our blessed hope is under violent attack.  It is common all known that Biblical Christianity is under attack more so now that's in years past.  All the 'morals' and 'values' once held dear are criticized at an astonishing rate.  But for the sake of a godless peace and false unity, churches and so-called Christians are compromising and bowing to the ways of the spirit of antichrist.  They are too in grossed in self preservation, promotion, and having little to no conflict, they will fight to hold on to the things of this world.


No longer are Christians taught that this world is tempral and that our treasure is in heaven where moth and rust can't destroy what the Lord has prepared for us.  They all want to be spoiled brats and have the treasures of this world, now -- because they spoke it so -- because they think God still likes them even as they consume on their lusts.  They don't want to die to self nor stop trying to save themselves.  (I digress.)

Our hope, our looking to, is Jesus Christ himself.  He alone can satisfy the longing heart.

Remember Hebrews 12:2 "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."

Well, of course, you may say...But do YOU look to Jesus your BLESSED HOPE? Or do you look to the gym? your essential oils? your coffee? your children? Or your money to bring you peace and satisfaction?  Jesus said, "These things I have spoken unto you, that in ME ye might have peace. Iin this world you WILL have tribulation. But, be of good cheer! I have overcome the world." -John 16:11

Anyone who says you can work yourself out of tribulation or think and talk yourself out of tribulation is selling you something.  (lies)

Let's look at I Corinthians 10:12-13. (Here's where you  pick up your Bible and flip the pages .. don't have a Bible? Click here )

That's our blessed hope! Hold on for HOPE! And here's another verse:  Luke 21:36 UIKEYINPUTDOWNARROW

As we begin our study of Revelation 1-4 (maybe thru 5), let's look at a few words and their definitions to strengthen our understanding.

HOPE:
BLESSED:
REVELATION:
WRATH:
ESCAPE:

Next, let's read --
Luke 17:26-28
Matthew 24:37

1. What did God do for Noah and Lot?
2. Was it before? During? or After God's wrath was poured out?
3. Were there any survivors of God's wrath?

Just asking....

Don't take someone else's opinion on the matter, ask the Holy Spirit to open YOUR understanding and give you what God has to say.  John 16:13-14UIKEYINPUTDOWNARROW. Remember, its the Holy Spirit who reminds us of all that Jesus said.   It is Jesus who is the WORD of God!! (Not man .. not pastor nor preacher)

With that, I'll let you get to studying...leave your comments and questions ..

LOOK UP our redemption draweth nigh!

We fly soon,

Amazing testimony!! Must watch

Curt and I watched this man's testimony and WOW WOW!!  It was so great that I must share it here on my blog.  I pray that you'll watch it and be convicted by the Holy Spirit to get right before the LORD.  

This past week, I've been reading the first four chapters of the book of Revelation and WOW! Again, I say WOW!  The Lord is so merciful to warn us and call us unto himself.  Do we have ears to hear? Do YOU have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church??????

WATCH this video.  We'll chat later about more stuff.

Needlepoint, Flowers, and Noah

( N E E D L E P O I N T & Flowers ) 🌸Did I tell you that I really enjoy doing handwork? Well, I do..hehehe.. This little jewel, was sent to me last year by my mom. The flower was already stitched and I just had to choose a background color and stitch the rest. It has been so enjoyable! 🍂Much like this lovely weather we've been having here.

 🍂Autumn/Fall is such a pleasant season yet it brings the foreboding thought of winter. Most of us want to hang onto the friendly temperatures and cheerful activities and ignore that winter is to follow. 

💨It really caused me to think about what the LORD has planned for those who fear him and for those who reject Jesus as their ONLY Saviour. Then this Scripture verse pops into my head --

"For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away; BUT THE WORD OF THE LORD ENDURETH FOREVER. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you." -I Peter 1:24-25. 

Jesus is our blessed hope! He is the Word of God made flesh and dwelt among us! -John 1:14. 

And Jesus Christ is coming soon to catch us away!  Revelation 22:7 

Those who reject Jesus are in for a very harsh winter! As in the days of Noah, they were eating, drinking, and making merry in their rejection of God Almighty enjoying their gross sin and well... They were destroyed.😳Only Noah and his family were saved..because Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD (Gen. 6:8). 

Jesus said it would be the same in the last days....here we are, dear one, in those very last days .. Please, I beg you to turn to, to turn back to God the Father as your only hope through Jesus Christ his only begotten Son and our Saviour.

 Time is running out -- "Today if you hear his voice, harden not your hearts" 💞

School Days - don't be the fool

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?  

1.  politics?
2.  football?
3.  pumpkin everything and baking?
4.  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.

Search it out for yourself:

• James 4:6
• II Timothy 3:4 and 4:3
• Acts 28:27
• II Thessalonians 2:11
• Psalm 53:1
• Revelation 21:8
• Matthew 18:35

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

Cleaning Out The Fridge

Hello there girls!  I just opened the fridge to get things out to make dinner and actually noticed that it's time... It's time to stop looking at the dirty shelves with stuck-on goo and actually clean it up.  Eeewwww!  Why do I wait so long!  I keep telling myself, "I'll get to that"; yet I never do.  But maybe that's only me.  I know there are many ladies out there who are much better at cleaning than I am...but I'm sure there is something dirty over there that she'll get to eventually... I was attending a short Bible study this spring and at the close of the session, the teacher suggested we all read the book of Proverbs for the next month.  Sure, I can do that.  As I was reading along, come day 6,  I saw a similarity to cleaning the fridge.   When was the last time I cleaned out the old stinky wait-to-get-to-later junk in my heart?  Those things we think aren't high on the priority list?  Things that are maybe 'not that bad'?  Let's take a look at Proverbs chapter 6 and see what I'm talking about. In verses 14-19 there is a series of bad qualities that we are to avoid at all cost...yet we too often find that they have made their way into our heart and may have even begun to grow some really nasty moldy stinky yuck.   "Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy. These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren." What things have you let sit in your heart without cleaning it up?  A little left-over resentment?  Some self serving excuses that keep you from humility and forgiveness?  Or that not-so-good self preservation and retaliation?   Left to sit, those things will grow, fester, and ruin the rest of your heart .. Clean it out!  Repent.  Humble yourself under the mighty hand of God.   LOOK UP the following Scripture verses:

• Psalm 51
• I Peter 5:6-10
• Mark 11:25-26

• Micah 6:8

DEFINE:

• FROWARD
• DISCORD
• ABOMINATION
• CALAMITY
• REMEDY
• MERCY

Write your conclusions and have a chat with the LORD... You'll feel better and be blessed in the process    

it was a good day!

This snapshot was captured during the photography session before the wedding by my sweet sentimental husband aka.. father of the groom.  We've been a little busier than usual.  Our oldest son got married to a jewel of a young lady!  We are so happy for them!!

Ahh, we get to enjoy such a lovely season of life.  At the time of this post, our son has been married for a whole month now!  I've paused much of my handwork and quieted myself before the LORD.

We need that.  "Be still and know that I AM GOD", he says to us in Psalm 42.  There are far too many unimportant things that draw our attention away from our God, the God of all hope, and of all comfort.

I pray that you will take the time each morning to sit quietly with your Bible and maybe a cup of coffee and listen to the written Word of God speak to your very soul.

Do you have a journal?  It's a great help for me to have my journal with me as I read my Bible.  I write my prayer requests and then answers to prayer.  I write my thoughts, or what the Lord is speaking to my heart.  Many many times I simply copy the verses that jump out at me. (It's great to practice my penmanship, too)

as you can see .. I need more practice :)

Until next time,

May the God of all comfort, comfort your hearts in Christ Jesus!

SUPPLY LIST for your adventure of a lifetime

Forrest the sheep on his first motorcycle 

    We went out to visit our friends and meet their new lambs a few weeks ago and really enjoyed our time.  This is one of their lambs, Forrest.  Forrest is one of triplets born early this spring.  He almost didn't survive, but his loving shepherdess took great care of him!  My friend stayed up late, got up early, making sure he was doing okay. The mama sheep rejected Forrest because he was born the runt and had a lame leg. The shepherdess milked the mama sheep to get milk in order to bottle-feed Forrest.  Amazing.  It was a lot of hard work, but look at him now!! He's doing great!!  And he was such a good sport during this cute photo shoot.

    I love sheep!  When you get the opportunity to be around sheep, you really have your eyes opened to in a tangible way, to understand the LORD our Great Shepherd and we the sheep of his pasture. 

Forrest looks like he's ready for his adventure, doesn't he?  Are you ready?

LESSON 2 | download & print 

   When traveling, the adventure, the excitement, or the joy is not about the destination alone, it's not just the getting from point A to point B, but it is as they say,  'the joy is in the journey'.  But WHY doesn't it feel the same in our walk with God? You know that part of travel that's exciting, beautiful, memory making, scrapbook keeping, Instagram posting?? Well ... because ... we are being lied to .. at every turn .. by false teachers, false prophets, by the posers of this generation, and ultimately by the devil, the father of lies.  

   There are two prevailing lies told to those who are seeking God and wanting the truth. 

1.  You can't have any more fun in your life -- you have to give up everything you once called fun. (victim, false humility, hypocrisy)
2.  You do not have to give up anything -- you can keep your passions, hobbies, and goals -- the spirit will help you obtain whatever you want. (indulgence, selfish, me-time)

   In our Year in Psalms, we WILL seek God and ask HIM what he has to say about this.  What then makes the adventure pleasant, enjoyable, and 'the experience of a lifetime'? Could it be the people we meet? the beautiful and interesting places we see? the foods we taste? and the memories we make?

    Please know that this walk with God is all of that and MORE!  Because, unlike a European vacation, a trip to Disney, or fishing in Alaska, our walk with God is eternal and has everlasting rewards.  The things of this earth will fade away and if they are not pleasing to God, will be forgotten forever. 

 BUT, the Word of God will stand forever. Guaranteed.

      A Year in Psalms is not about finding yourself, it is about searching out, finding, and knowing who the Almighty God is.  In so doing, we will have the experience of a lifetime!

BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD  ~Psalm 46:10

Each chapter of the book of Psalms tells us something about the Creator of heaven and earth, let's get going, we've got so much to discover!!

PSALM 1 : The LORD knows everything.  

     This is a good and sobering place to begin.  The word is omniscient: ALL KNOWING

     When we are applying for a new job, looking for a mechanic, a good restaurant, or a babysitter, we want to know if the food is good, if the company is reputable, if the mechanic is trustworthy, and if the babysitter is responsible and loving.  We also ask for references or recommendations. 

If you go to a den of thieves and ask them to recommend a mechanic, suffice it to say, they will recommend a fellow thief --

If you go to someone who doesn't eat meat, a vegan and ask them where the best steak can be found, they wouldn't know or you'd be eating a bean burger --

If you walk into the county jail and ask if someone has a good babysitter, you'd be entrusting the care of your precious child to the mouths of ravening wolves -- 

Why??? then would someone seek to know and walk with God in like manner???

Asking men and women about spirituality, about God, and not the very written word of God Almighty, who knows everything, all things, the end from the beginning, all eternity past, all eternity future, all of what is happening today in every nation, every city, every place of business, every home and every single heart .. is just plain dumb.   He not only knows more .. he knows ALL!

Let's define some words from Psalm 1 to help us have clarity:  (Use the Noah Webster 1828 dictionary to accurately define these words.)

• COUNSEL
• SCORNFUL
• SINNER
• UNGODLY
• WAY
• DELIGHT
• VIOLATING
• INSTRUCTION

Now, let's pick up our supplies for this Year in Psalms!!  Next to each verse, write the supplies you find written there. Which ones are you to pick up?  Make sure you don't overpack; space is limited. Make a list of those things you are not permitted to bring on this journey.

• II Corinthians 5:17
• Matthew 11:28-30
• Ephesians 6:10-18
• I Peter 1:13
• Colossians 3:8-14
• I Peter 5:5
• Psalm 116:13
• Proverbs 4:13
• Ephesians 4:22
• II Timothy 2:19
• Psalm 141:4
• I Timothy 4:1

Welcome to Base Camp

Since moving to the US Northwest, I've become more familiar with mountainy things...I spent most of my life in the greater metro area of 'Far' Eastern Kansas.  City - yes. Rolling hills - yes. Proper mountains - no.   Ruby shoes - not those either (hehehe)  

My husband, on the other hand, grew up in the mountains - proper mountains.  So we've been here nearly 9 years now and I still feel a little like a fish out of water.  I love the outdoors, I love walks and hikes, babbling streams, and tall pine trees.  I do not like, however, 100 ft cliffs, drop-offs, nor switchback roads.  Meadows, tall grass, and the gentle breezes call me.  

One thing that I had to learn pretty quick was to ALWAYS BE PREPARED when in the mountains, or even when driving through the mountains.  Remember the 1988 movie, The Man From Snowy River?  When the two main characters are riding horseback up in the mountains and the girl says, 'It's so beautiful here.' to which the guy replies, 'yeah, the mountains are always changing' .. I don't remember exactly, but the conversation is such that they are in awe of the beauty and majesty of the scenery but must be critically aware of the weather... their surroundings. 

Our walk with the LORD is similar.  It's the most beautiful walk we'll ever encounter; yet there is a very real enemy always lurking about seeking to destroy us.  We must WATCH and PRAY.  

LESSON 1 | BASE CAMP download & print

Our strength and nourishment for our walk with the LORD comes from the LORD himself and we have easy access to him by Jesus Christ .. the Word of God.  Not only did Jesus give his life an atonement for sin but also gave us the written Word of God for our instruction, reproof, encouragement, comfort, strengthening .. our life.  In Jesus, we have all that pertains to life and godliness. (II Peter 1:3)

In this first week in A Year in Psalms, lets start with Psalm 23.  Psalm 23 will be our base camp.  

In mountaineering terms, base camp is an area used for staging an attempt at the summit.  Base camps are positioned to be safe from the harsher conditions above, a place of refuge, a respite along the journey.

Like all good mountaineers, hikers, and campers, we need to sit down and have a talk with someone who has been there before, who knows the best trails, knows what to avoid and where the 'can't miss' views are located.  We need to get our pack ready.  Our experienced and faithful guide is the LORD Jesus Christ himself, as it is written of him : our chief Shepherd. (I Peter 5:4) Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our faith.  He knows it all!! 

Verse one of Psalm 23 reads: "The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want."  

First and foremost, we cannot do this alone.  All smart and living mountaineers know that you don't travel alone.  It is far too risky and dangerous.  

In our life, especially our life walk with the LORD God, we cannot go it alone.  It is impossible.  Have no fear, the LORD is our Shepherd.  Let's get over to base camp and see what the LORD has ready for us.

Have you met Jesus Christ, the great Shepherd?  He is the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE and no man can come to GOD THE FATHER but by him. 

Sin, lies, and the cares of this world will hinder and prevent people from coming to God.  God Almighty is God .. He is HOLY, and Righteous and gave his only begotten son, Jesus Christ as our perfect Saviour. God gave the world Jesus.  Jesus obeyed God his Father and left heaven, was born a man of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross and took all the sin of all humanity, was buried, and God raised him from the dead on the third day -- alive! victorious!   

When we realize our depravity, sin, and hopelessness, our need of God by Jesus Christ and choose to believe that Jesus Christ is who he said he is .. the Son of Almighty God and our redeemer, then we can continue on this trekk toward meeting God face to face. 

IMPORTANT FYI:  Hell is a real place.  Heaven is a real place.  Hell is a place designed for the devil and his angels (aka demons) Matthew 25:41.  God Almighty is not willing that any should perish but that all come to repentance.  (II Peter 3:9)  ALL who reject Jesus as the Son of God and Saviour of men, will go to hell with the devil.  Repentance is a turning away from and forsaking your own self and your own way of doing things and turning to God and obeying God's way of life found in the written Scriptures.  

 However, if you do not repent and call on the name of the LORD and be saved .. well, my friend, you are not allowed passed base camp. (For the purpose of illustration, we are using hiking and mountaineering to give us a picture of our walk with the LORD.  Similar to the parable Jesus told us in the book of John chapter 10.) 

Jesus said that I am the door, .. Let's see in writing what he said:  John 10:6-18

 "This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them. 

 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 
  All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. 
  I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 
  The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 
  I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 
  But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 
  The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 
  I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. 
  As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. 
  And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. 
  Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. 
  No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. "

A M E N !

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want"  

Once we have met our great shepherd, we will see what awaits us to get our pack ready, ie; our supplies and equipment... coming up next time ..

"Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, LET GOD BE MAGNIFIED."  ~Psalm 70:4  

Oh! I just love this time of year!!  It's mid-way through spring, and the earth is just starting to look alive again.  Well, the earth around here. We live in the high desert and I will take all the greenery I can get!  This region relies on irrigation supplied from the water from the mountains.  In the late summer through mid-spring, the water is turned "off"for outside things.  When the water is let out from the reservoir, the rivers run full, and the canals call to the ducks, geese, and critters, then things begin to really grow and the valley comes alive!

With all this lively activity, my heart also yearns for the pure water of the written word of God. As it is written,  "To the chief Musician, Maschil, for the sons of Korah. As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. " ~Psalm 42:1

So, I was talking to the LORD this morning, (I have recently finished reading through the Bible. I had a little Bible reading schedule, and I've come to the close of that.)  So, I asked him 'What can I study with you, LORD? Where in Scripture can we meet and you show me more of YOU?' And the LORD said, 'Psalms'.  Hmm...ok.. 'But, LORD, I would like something meatier than just reading through Psalms.'  Then I understood.  It wasn't just a reading through; but rather a journey through -- A Year in Psalms.

Like many who are looking for an adventure, trekking, soul searching, or just something out of the dreariness of winter, we are going to GO to Psalms .. as if it were a location .. a destination.  We will see the sights, taste the goodness, meet the people, and learn of the LORD!

I am so excited!!!!!  You are welcome and invited to join me.  This adventure will be worth its weight in gold .. actually, it will be more precious than gold as our faith WILL grow, and our relationship with God Almighty will be richer, sweeter, and stronger than before.
