I still pray for you every day.....God will get you through this valley. He got me through mine


Jesus loves you this I know, for the bible tells me so, little ones to him belong, when they are weak, he is strong.

I have lots of stories Reynaldo .
I am sure you do too. The spirit comes through every day and makes the stories happen.

I have a blue cattle dog.

She has been afraid lately to go near one particular place . She shakes and there really is something there .
She can smell it and sense it and I respect and listen to her and trust her instincts.

I call her the guardian .

What she is smelling is a snake. Although it was there about maybe 7 days ago , it is now merely the sense of smell of it having been there left and the memory.

Do you understand?

I have been taking her back for quite a few days now to show her that it is not there , and her fear is becoming less every time.

She is almost back to normal .

So to say that her fear is not real and that her senses were incorrect are not true.

What I am saying to you is that your senses may be correct that something is a miss also .

The feeling may have shifted your eyes , as this little shift has grabbed your attention it then demands you pay attention.

As you are a sovereign being take back your attention.

Perhaps it is the sense that should in fact alert you to shift.

I have been raking leaves . it is warm now and I am back in the shade for a break and a drink.

I believe Texas gets hot too.

I have to keep busy , seems there's always things to do .

I have pulled out my old fishing rod , seems I am to be a fisherman again this week.
hello friend how have you been

I will say I'm doing better than I was, but still struggling a bit. Keep me in your prayers cause I still struggle with some not so good thoughts. But anyway, enough about me. I don't want you to think I reached out for this. I really am interested to know how life has been these past two weeks. Me, well, our store is getting ready for our Thanksgiving holiday. It's starting to get busy, but I like it cause it's a change in pace. Plus, as much as I complain about work I love the holidays. They bring me joy.

Wow its that time again already ,
It always seems to sneak up again those holidays .

Will do with the request , although its fair to let you know I have reclaimed you for god . :) I mean that literally , so you know . which ever way you look at it.

So keep you ears and eyes open for what is outside of what you think you knew.

We have been getting the small showers here in the afternoon and evening , they were talking about the possibility of a ninia year .
That could spell something different in the southern hemisphere to the north .
Not sure about that , and being in the north of our country and you in the south , who knows .

Didn't catch any fish yet BTW , however while in the Bush came across a very fat snake , looked like it was round as a grapefruit from what I saw.

I wonder what its like to live in new Zealand where there's no snakes sometimes.

Apparently we have 170 different kinds lol

Glad to hear you doing well .
Good health

Wisdom teaches you to know where you came from. Research the Monolithic cornerstone with Jesus Christ who is the Light of the world; know the wisdom that comes from above is also below.
Wisdom stands on unchanging units of measurement. Our standard is the Bible. Any wisdom found outside the Bible will agree with the Bible, otherwise your wisdom is cast adrift without an anchor and all things become relative to your perspective. I stand on the rock, don't stand on slippery sand.

Would care to show some insight on how got over it? I know it's absurd thought but my mind has latched on to it. Im to the point where I feel like my life is about to end.
Cry out to God and ask Him...you are in perfect position (spiritually speaking)...scripture tells us to take every thought captive (by the power of the spirit of Christ) for it is those (thoughts) that steal our peace promised. He promises to turn our mourning into dancing/joy. Psalm 30...many of David's Psalm's brought me clarity and I understood David's heart cry...when he felt trapped in the pit and when he then rejoiced that God heard his cry...

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

The same spirit that rose Christ from the grave lives in you/us...and promises to cause us to overcome...if we believe it to be true. You are Beloved of God and He wants you to know that beyond a shadow of doubt. As the apostle Paul said, "Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial that has come upon you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed at the revelation of His glory.…"

May His peace and grace be found within you...His love shed abroad in your heart...

Well while we have the illustration apparent let's revive the story

The story of two minds .

You know , the light shone down so that the union may occur bringing that which was below into union with above.

Your foundations , covenents required renewed and made to last.

Hence jezebeel appears here and there .

Not to walk run away from her face , to stand deliver and unveil truth occurring at pace.

So now , in its place another story .

Travelling waters in a kayak , across to the place in the wilderness , where visions shown .
Two stones ,
The waters mirror , shone above into her face ,
The wind was swishing gently upon her surface ,
A sea eagles nest could be seen in the tree ,
Below again until Two became three.
And then one.

After the waters movement felt sustained by the breeze ,
Listened the heart captured , the movement beyond what one sees.

As.the father above looks down ,
Entering the both , truth of being the glue ,
Fuses the heart , no more are minds of two become three become one .

The word of Job writes:

“With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.”

And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the LORD, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.”

The Psalmist write:

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth forever.”

Proverbs:

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”

It is good to shift our focus :)

Some things take care of themselves , then we can take care of what we can .

While we're waiting , knowing these things come , we can polish our doings up .

I looked around today , there are small things , jobs, needed doing , today was one of those days , tying up loose ends as they say .

When I shine my spirit this way ,.I feel wealthy , then god sees the work and joins in with his. That is the way of these things.

We join our ways , and it is helpful lifting .
Lifting the weight , as things come long .
The truth is powerful to align the spirit with.
There must be lots of stories about the things come while walking correctly in truth .
I have many , don't take my word for it , the proof is in the pudding as they say.

My dear friend, Wisdom doesn't stand and Wisdom is not cast adrift. She is in darkness, she is the oil in the lamp. She is not like truth in this world that's like the wind, always changing directions; She is the Truth that is from Him and She is to be found.

The word of Job writes:

“With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.”

And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the LORD, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.”

The Psalmist write:

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth forever.”

Proverbs:

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”

One might imagine themselves safe standing on the rock, yet wisdom says unless a seed drops to the earth and dies he shall not enter eternal life and what you sow is not as the body that will be.
Wisdom is practical and down to Earth. Your statements are ethereal and flighty. Conversation with you is a waste of time.

Oh, sorry about that, when you wrote; Wisdom stands on unchanging units of measurement, I felt the same way and agree wisdoms down to earth, so much so she's in darkness with you right now working to get you into the light. How about this; the seed when put in good soil, given water and enough sunlight, the seed splits it seed coat (soft outer shell) and begins to grow roots. After germinating, the seed grows up and then leaves. I call this rapture.

Shame on you.


You consider referring to God’s Holy Spirit as “she” as something cute or harmless? The term “hogwash” is too kind...more like “blasphemy”. Sorry, Kelly—-the shame is on you.

Cute and harmless is She, how sweet.

In the original Hebrew of the Old Testament, the word for spirit is "rūaḥ" and this is feminine however the word for "spirit" is masculine in other languages unrelated to the original writing of the Bible.

The God spoken of in the Old Testament, generally regarded as God the Father, is spoken of also as a mother giving birth to her people in Deuteronomy 32:18; did you know Abraham's God had a wife?

Do you remember what Jesus said, that if you say anything about the son of man, it's forgiven but if you say anything against the HS, it's not.

Do you remember what Jesus said, that if you say anything about him, it's forgiven of you, but if you say anything against the HS, you're never forgiven. And just what is your name, Blood Bought? Where ever did you come up with something like that? I'll call you BB for short.


It’s casting pearls before swine ,but what the heck,I ain’t got anything to do tonight....”the adjectives “cute and harmless” referred to your using the term “she” in describing the Holy Spirit.I did not call the Holy Spirit this things.I think you are smart enough to see that without being told.An attempt to mislead and divert the focus on me instead of the person that writes blasphemies, perhaps?
So God has a wife does he........sure He does,sure....glad God chose you to reveal this mystery of the ages....Jesus nor Paul or others me ntioned this ,What would seem to bea big deal
As for the name I get many compliments on it all the time—-excuse me if Isound like Trump—if others have no trouble figuring it out,why would you——the gifted one who knows the mysteries nobody else has seen—why do you have a problem with it?

Your pal BB
