What I am standing for


I asked God for revelation about healing. This is what I got today. I remembered my time in LA waiting for prayer from Reinhart Bonnke. There was a very long book signing line. I stood there with Jessica for an hour, maybe longer. Jessica was very good waiting. Many pastors and their wives cut in line in front of us. It made me kind of mad. I had to pray for forgiveness. I didn’t want my anger to stand in the way of Jessica’s healing. I’m sure they were all a little “star struck” and didn’t realize what they were doing. I did not have a book for him to sign. I only had this piece of paper I received from Bonnke’s ministry. It says, "The Church of our Lord Jesus Christ is not a pleasure boat, but a life boat for saving souls! And every hand is needed on deck”. . This is one of my favorite sayings of Bonnke’s. When I received this in the mail I knew I wanted him to sign it. Any way, after waiting an hour we got to the end of the line. The helpers told me that Bonnke was only signing books and he was not praying for people. I could have gotten out of line then and there. But I stayed and I asked. Bonnke signed my paper and he also prayed for Jessica. Here is the revelation I received about prayer. When you pray you must believe that at some point you will receive what you are standing for. I wanted Bonnke to sign my paper (not a book) and I wanted prayer. This is what I got in line for. There where many things to discourage me. The long line, the people cutting the line, the helpers that said he would not do it. I stood believing I would receive what I was standing for. In the end I got what I asked for. This was in the natural, but I am standing now for Jessica’s healing. I could give up, there are many who would say God just does not heal today. I will not give up! I am going to stand firm because I believe I will receive what I’m standing for! I feel like God told me not to be discouraged but to keep standing in faith.

I've struggled over the issue myself, but I am at peace about my situation. I pray Jessica receives healing from God. Remember, Naaman had to dip 7 times in the Jordan River. ;-)

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to help these young women learn to read. http://www.ReadingKingdom.com what

Taking at look at Hotels select

I have the chance to review Hotels select.   https://www.hotelsetc.com/ This is a really interesting travel club.   You pay a fee of about 200 dollars a year to use their very extensive site.   I got this membership free.   It has many deals of mostly hotels, but also rental cars, flights, restaurants and events around the world.   I have been spending days looking at what they offer.   So far what I’ve found is amazing deals on the places many people go.   For example, hotels in Orlando are 50% less than deals you find at booking.com.   Rental cars are often 25% cheaper than Rental cars.com.   And they have a search where you can book a condo for as little as 250 dollars a week just 1 mile from Disney world.   That is 7 nights for 250 dollars for up to 4 people.   The exact location on Airbnb cost 650 dollars a week. If you travel to places like San Diego, New York City and Las Vegas this site will save you a great deal of money.   If you rent cars you will also find it wo
