... HEAVEN HELP YOU ...
the smartest and most helpful saying any angry person ever said to someone they were angry at.
How many times an angry person unwittingly called Heaven into action every time they said HEAVEN HELP YOU to the person they were angry at and did not know it. :0) And aren't you glad they did? It was the most helpful and beneficial thing they could have done for you. Glory to God Most High! ;0)

IS IT POSSIBLE MISS FALLING SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD??
Precious Family, Friends and Life Colleagues,
Ever wonder if it might be possible to miss falling short of the glory of God?? What are your thoughts on the matter? Was it something you even ever considered before? This is but one question of many that I believe is worth asking and checking into. Yes we all have and we all do, all except Christ and The Holy Spirit of coarse. But might it actually be possible to actually miss falling short of the glory of God?? Human nature typically depicts otherwise, even our own attitudes, thoughts, words and actions overwhelmingly admit to our falling short of the glory of God. But does it have to be so? Are we forever stuck in the mode that has us constantly falling short of the glory of God?
Get back with me on this matter. Post your comments and references regarding your understanding and perceptions on this subject. I'd like to hear from you because I believe this is an interesting topic. Thank you.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR
Good morning precious Family, Friends and Life Colleagues,
Grace, Peace, Divine Love and Revelation of the Wisdom and Knowledge of Christ be multiplied to you in Jesus' Name. :0)
Last night I shared with you a tidbit of my life experience and what The Lord had to share with me. In light of what I had available to me I want to strongly encourage you to procure yourself a Devotional Bible. I highly recommend the Jesus Calling Devotional Bible for the encouragement you need and the support of Christ you might not find elsewhere in your time of need. Of any reading or teaching material available today either by internet, tv, book or cd, the Bible being the first go-to of choice unless you require something more definitive yet also based on the premise of God's Word. But for those who just can't find themselves willing or able to dive into the teaching of others or who are not willing to take the risk, do yourself a massively huge favor and invest in The Jesus Calling Devotional Bible. And when you are at a loss or think you don't have the ears to hear what The Spirit of God is saying either to the churches or to you ... I assure you, you will hear from God exactly what you need to hear and you will realize how much Heaven itself is for you, not against you. You will even come to appreciate what Heaven gets to experience all the time... the glory of God Most High, and understand how much you can't live without It.
The Lord bless you and keep you.
The Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you.
The Lord lift His countenance upon you and give you peace.
In Jesus' Name. Amen.

PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT
Precious Holy Spirit,
I am so grateful that You grace my life with Your Presence. I praise God that You are very much a part of my life. I cannot live without You, Holy Spirit. I need You so very much. Without You I am nothing and can do nothing of my own volition that would amount to anything. Without You I have no way of exalting Christ, glorifying God or magnifying Heaven, or blessing The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness. Without You I would know not know the blessedness of the glory of God's amazing grace, tender mercy or divine favor, and would have no inclination or any sort of revelation governing God's perfect love.
Holy Spirit,
I need You so much more than I can even fathom. I only know that I cannot make it without You and manage to some how be productive, successful, or anything worthwhile that would amount to anything substantial or beneficial to God or to my fellow life colleagues. Without You I would not become anything God could be proud of and could not become the person that any member of my family, friends and life colleagues needs for me to be. Without You I would be nothing more than a big let-down. And God, The Kingdom of God and all of my life colleagues deserves so much better than that.
Holy Spirit,
I possess no wisdom, knowledge or insight of my own. I have nothing good of myself to offer that would be of valuable service to God, The Kingdom of God, or to anybody except a heart and soul, mind and spirit, body and life that I humbly submit to You in Jesus' Name. And if You please, I pray in Jesus' Name that You would work whatever miracles necessary in and through me for the sake of God's glory in and through Christ Jesus. I pray You would reveal to me my place and work in The Kingdom of God and that You would help me to live and move and have my being according to God's Righteousness and Truth. That You would do everything possible to help me fulfill God's Divine Will, Plan and Purpose for my life so that I would be the blessing that God has designed me to be and be the blessing that all my life constituents needs me to be for the sake of The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness.
Holy Spirit,
I have no strength or power in myself to accomplish or overcome anything. Would You please be The Strength and Power of my life and that governs my life in the Strength, Power and Integrity of God's Perfect Love, Divine Truth and Infinite Wisdom? Would You please grace my life with such amazing grace and Divine Favor? And lead, guide and direct all my ways according to God's Righteousness in Light of Christ?
Holy Spirit,
For God's sake so Jesus Christ is exalted to the glory of God The Father and The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness magnified and richly blessed, I am asking You to be my All in all and to be The Voice that speaks through me in Righteousness, Wisdom and Truth - to God as well as to any and all members of my life colleagues - as well as The Voice that ministers to me. And I am asking You to be The Work that works in me God's Righteousness, Wisdom and Truth and that works through me for the sake of all concerned. I have been a fool for far too long and the world has more than enough fools in it than it can't handle. The curse of foolishness is a powerful malleolus odor that wreaks with such stench that its a wonder the world or anyone in it survives because it reveals the stupidness of stupidity and manifests chaos, disorder, in-harmony - anything and everything not even remotely like God and that has no place whatsoever in The Kingdom of God. The world needs to experience something fresh and new. The world needs to experience the blessedness of God's glorious, infinite Wisdom manifest in and through each and every one of us just so it can breathe and realize the peace, love, and joy of The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness and what its all about and how powerful and amazing it really is. I am so over stupid that I am wise enough to ask for such a miracle of amazing grace, and wise enough to intercede on behalf of the world who also wishes stupid never existed and desires so much better. Holy Spirit, it is said that one person can change the world, that one person can make all the difference in changing things for the better. I pray that the prayer of this person does make such a huge difference and impact that things can't help but tremendously improve and get better in every way. Nevertheless, not my will, but God's Will be done.
Holy Spirit,
I love You. I desire You. I desire to really know You and to be a reflection of You. I desire to experience the miracle of Your Presence, of Your Glory in every way and to share that experience with others of God's children who would greatly benefit from learning what I learn from You and who desire to experience what I experience but have no idea how possible it is for them to receive such a precious gift. But it is possible for them to receive every bit as much or more than what I am about to receive because You are no respecter of persons. What You do for one You will also do for another because You show no partiality or favoritism and are nothing less than Loving, Just and True in every single way with everyone.
Holy Spirit,
Eddy Arnold may sing 'Make The World God Away', but it's not the world that needs to go away. It's the ugliness of the world that needs to go away. And the ugliness of the world will go away when the wondrous glory, beauty and splendor of God The Father, God The Son and God The Holy Spirit, and The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness are welcomed and given their rightful place of dominion in us, through us and all around us for Heaven's sake in Jesus' Precious and Holy Name.
Holy Spirit,
I give thanks for those who already know this, who have made every effort in making this their reality and who have or who may be teaching this to others. If not, I pray this prayer open the way to such delight. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for honoring this prayer and for answering it in the way that best exalts Christ, that best glorifies God, and that best magnifies Heaven. In Jesus' Precious and Holy Name, Amen.

HELLO LIFE COLLEAGUES :0)
Hello Life Colleagues,
It's been a while since I have been online. My apologies to all who checked in to see what's up with this new blog. I did not realize that it was already in public domain. To be fair though, please understand that when I am away from posting that I am greatly involved in family activities and intense study. My family needs me and I love them very much so I do as best I can. My husband is a stroke survivor. Our home is in serious need of experiencing love. As such, it is what I have come to coin as 'my husband's therapy house'. I help him out as much as he allows. I also help tend to small grandchildren who vie for solid attention and who have issues of their own. Needless to say, things get quite busy here and I must also have my God time. I can't share with you what I don't know and can only disclose personal experience. Mostly though, when it comes to my writing, it revolves around The Lord. I write prayers and glean much as a result. I do not like missing out on this precious time. It is sacred to me. You are also my Family, my Friends, my Life Colleagues, and I can't help but sometimes feel that I am letting you down by not ministering to your needs in just as much an emphatically present way. On the other hand, I can't properly address your needs without first possessing the wisdom to do so.
For me to be speaking with you this way is quite knew to me. It is an experience that I am quite unaccustomed with. This is a public forum, a public setting, to which I have little if any personal experience. I am trusting God with this venture and trusting that He has opened a grand door for me to walk through in which I can be of excellent service to both God as well as to my Life Colleagues. You matter a great deal to me, much more than I can even properly express. You may even be aware of the other blogs that I had started, which I felt necessary to change and make private for now. I know God is working something wonderful in me as well as in them, so I need to follow the guidance I am given. It is imperative that God be in charge so that we all will greatly benefit from what He is doing. I cannot take the credit for what God wants to do or is doing. It is for Christ's sake that I follow His lead and trust that Jesus is the One exalted and that God is the One who is glorified as a result.
There is much happening in the world right now. The issue with Syria; Different happenings in the US; The waters surrounding Japan being contaminated by nuclear fallout; Various weather issues and warring factions around the world, etc. So many happenings presenting themselves in people's lives as well as in communities, states, and various countries. While some happenings may be individually personalized, many encompass many more, even entire countries as well as globally. But glory be to God Most High!! God has a plan. God has a Divine Plan and Purpose for each and every one of us, as well as for our particular situation, condition, and relation - even for our individual community, state, country, ... and even for the world. And God's Plan is powerful, dynamic, and more awesome than anything we can even conceive. And God's Plan cannot fail in any way, shape or form. The ultimate purpose of God's Plan is to make us all aware of the glory of His Presence and very real involvement, so we know - really know - how awesome God really is. 'Cause you see, God is Great and God is Good. God is Love and God is Just. God is Wise and God is True. God is Real and God is Here with us. After all, God did promise to never leave us or forsake us. (Heb. 13:5). And God is not man that He should lie nor is He the son of man that He should repent. ( _______ ). But God is faithful to all His promises. ( _____ ).
As for by study time, it's because I have to study - not just to show myself approved, as God commands. But because memorizing God's Word is something that is not natural to me. Some might hold that against me, but it is something that I have come to embrace because like some bible thumpers who might have God's Word memorized inside out, backwards, forwards, and upside down, only to use it to brow beat those less versed - I have come to appreciate that I am not one of those like that. I have come to understand that when God tells me something, I can trust that it is found within His written Word. I just have to find it. And when I do, it's amazing. Not that I have doubted God's revelation of anything to me, but that it is confirmed in writing. When I surrender myself to The Holy Spirit and minister to Him and let Him work through me, it is an awesome thing that can only be explained as Divine. You know when you are blessed and surrounded by God's glory. You know when it's just you and God and in that moment all is truly well and you and God are real, and only the real is what is evident. And it is awesome.
My Dear Family, Friends and Life Colleagues,
I am not some advertising agent or some multi-million or multi-billion dollar tycoon. I am not some highly educated, well to do, sophisticated, extraordinarily intelligent anything. I am a simple person of lack luster, humble means, who does not speak with eloquence or who knows how to do much of anything other than be who I am. You either like and trust me or you don't. You either approve of and accept me or you don't. I am nothing less or greater than you. I exist just as you do and am just as real as you are. I am every bit as human as you, and like you, sometimes wish I were more because I have not figured out how to navigate this life as well as I had hoped or aspired. And like you, I need God every bit as much, maybe even more. I want to be somebody important that does more good than a person has a right to do, that succeeds at being nothing less than wonderful, an extraordinary blessing to all those who need me to reach my full potential so they can receive what it is that only God can offer them through me. So I can expand their vision of The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness and let The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness work wonders through me for their sake. But what is it that I have to offer? What is it that I can do that will make a difference and impact their life or their world for the better? I can offer myself to God and submit myself to The Kingdom of God and His Righteousness so God can work the necessary miracles that exalt Christ, glorify God, and magnify Heaven in their lives for the sake of all concerned. That's a start.
Well, my Dear Family, Friends and Life Colleagues,
The Lord bless you and keep you.
The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you.
The Lord lift His countenance upon you and give you peace.
In Jesus' Precious and Holy Name. Amen.
