Today was so beautiful along our River Greenway system. Went out bike riding. The green leaves are just starting to come out. Everything still looks so green and fresh, and our fruit trees are putting out their flowers. I got a shot of a Great Blue Heron looking for fish. They nest every year in one of the trees. There must be at least 12 to 13 nests in this one tree. Love, love this time of year before it gets too hot! Hope you can get out and enjoy your weather wherever you live! Have a God blessed day!!!
Lord Jehovah, God Fine tune my soul To respond to you As the violin's master Its strings do command So may only your hands Tips of Your fingers Pull forth the music From my life
Each note a result Of just your skill Your knowledge Your beauty Your graciousness So a listening world's ears May receive a taste Of the glory The beauty of Your face!
U healed our diseases U raised our dead Drove out darkest demons Fed us until it became clear Of U, is there Nothing ordinary Nothing mere
U grew and grew in power Until man's authority (held in satan's grip) Of u began to fear Staked u to a cross Took ur life so dear And then, In ignorance so sheer At ur last breath Did they cheer, Did they sneer (at ur last sigh Sent themselves To hell to reside)
So let us not today Do the same Crown Christ As your only King As our voices In heaven may ring Dear Lord Jesus To glorify and praise Only U!!
PSALM 150:6 LET EVERYTHING THAT HAS BREATH PRAISE THE LORD. PRAISE THE LORD!
Today in Middle Tennessee it very cold but oh, the sun is out so bright. It at least looks very beautiful. It had been fairly warm for this time of year so a lot of the flowering trees are already in bloom and a few buttercups were out. I just hope this short cold snap doesn’t damage all the small flowers. Anyway, it is pretty outside. I just wanted to share a quick Haiku below with you. May God bless your day!
Haiku for a Spring Morning (even though it’s very cold)
Spring’s sun warms the earth Christ’s love lights the darkest soul God’s great grace fills both!!
I know in this world, especially in our very wealthy, money-oriented culture that is so in love with money, possessions, and pleasure, we have a tendency to deny or neglect the spiritual aspects of our lives. We are truly spirits only temporarily connected to our physical shell.
I have had several supernatural experiences, and what I guess I’m trying to lead up to is I have had three encounters with demons, very dark creatures.
The first happened many years ago when I was going through a very dark time in my life but trying to draw closer to Christ and God and the Holy Spirit. I woke up one night and a dark mass felt like it was laying on my chest. I was afraid and all I could think to do was say “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” It immediately was gone, left.
The second encounter was when I was on my first round of chemotherapy for my breast cancer. I was sleeping in an old recliner and suddenly woke up. I looked down and this dark person was laying on top of me. I think it was trying to look like me as a child. It looked up at me, smiled a perverted smile and asked, “Susie, what are you trying to do with this book.” I naturally was frightened but again said, “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” Within a heartbeat, it was gone. I was at the time working on a novel which I have finished about the divisions within our Christian churches or the denominations we have created.
The third experience came about while I was still suffering fatigue from all the cancer treatments. One night I was awake, and suddenly, a strong looking man was in the room with me. He had no color to him at all. He was black with shades of gray. I said, “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” He said to me, “No, it doesn’t work that way.” I immediately yelled for a second time, “Oh yes, it does. In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, be gone.” And he disappeared instantaneously.
In all three experiences, each creature reeked, literally smelled, of evil, violent destruction. There is nothing good about satan or demons. The only thing that got rid of them was to speak or call upon the name of Jesus Christ! Praise you Lord Jesus for the beauty of your face, your great and loving heart and also for your wonderful power and authority over everything in creation. Bless you Lord!! Thank you for your salvation from all of satan’s schemes against us.
