I SEE THE LIGHT

(WRITTEN 1/28/12)
It's bright and I feel compelled to walk into the light... wait that is for another time. I do see the light at the end of the tunnel of healing. By the first of March, my legs should be strong enough to allow me to work again. This past week I finally see and feel I will achieve full recovery from this long ordeal with my blood clot and muscle tear and yes, and having an allergic reaction to medication that set my healing back a month. There were days I thought I would never heal and this is as good as it is going to get. Depression and doubt and fear crept in like a thief in the night. Sometimes battling my mind and emotions was harder than battling the physical.

I immersed myself in prayer to Almighty God for healing. Also, I read every day the stories in the Holy Bible where Jesus Christ healed all manner of sickness and infirmities. Matthew 8:14-17 and  Luke 4:38-41 are just two examples but there are many more like John 5:1-8 that gave me encouragement that God cared and loved me just like the people in Bible times. The Holy Spirit spoke to my anxiety that my time to be healed was coming and that the healing had already begun.

I was not shy to ask everybody to pray a healing pray for me. I ask to be put on every church Prayer List I could for healing. I went to the Upper Room prayer website and emailed them to pray for my healing. I even asked the Hosts of Heaven to pray on my behalf and Mother Mary to ask her Son to be merciful and heal me. I believe very strongly in the power of prayer and what is called intercessory prayer or the pray to God on behalf of others. Now for all my Protestant brothers and sisters of whom I am one of them, let me say I believe if we can ask people on earth to pray for us, we can ask the Heavenly Host to pray for us also because they are on our side too.

In the last two weeks, I have seen and felt some amazing strides in my healing. My blood thinner medicine is now in the therapeutic range. My balance is coming back and I am no longer prey for cow-tipping or in this case, Rick tipping. Taking steps without the aid of the walker is so exciting. Walking to me is now a miracle action all to itself.

Doctors diagnosis but God heals, amen. I want to share with the world that God is healing me because He loves me and wants to answer our prayers. Now I am at the pool of Bethesda and I have told Jesus I want to get well. Then Jesus said to Rick, "Get up! Pick up your mat and walk." ...he picked up his mat and walked. Amen. Alleluia.

POISONING THE FRUITS OF THE HOLY BIBLE

  The Holy Bible has many beautiful truths within its pages and the most wonderful story in the world of how a loving and gracious God came from Heaven to Earth to save us from sin and ourselves.  What I have seen that saddens my heart is when men and women distort the Bible's precious truths. Sometimes they play mental gymnastics with a rubicon of verses to put together their own view of a topic and make the Bible appear to support their side. Both the liberal and conservative Christians do it and even those who are not even believers play this game. People who want all answers to life and faith but only from the Bible are some of the most toxic and unhappy people I know. Where is their Christlike love? Jesus dealt with this kind of mindset in his mortal time on earth and they were called Pharisees. We must be willing to take the Bible as it is written and what the writers led by the Holy Spirit meant. We must be authentic and transparent. Some things in the Bible are uncomfortabl

CATHOLIC TENDENCIES

  Ever since I was introduced to the Catholic Church I have been fascinated by this body of the Christian faith. One thing that has stuck with me that I admire is the unashamed strength to stand up for what they believe and back it up with The Three Pillars of the Church. Now for those who do not know The Three Pillars, they are number one, Sacred Scripture which comprises the Old Testament and New Testament in a total of seventy-three books. Next is the Apostolic Tradition which is the Living Tradition and the liturgies. Thirdly, The Living Magisterium which is the teaching authority of the Pope in Communion with the Bishops. So what brought this topic up for me is listening to a podcast by Fr. Mike Schmitz denouncing the opening in France of the Olympics when blasphemy was committed by mocking The Last Supper of Jesus Christ. I know some of you are thinking this is already old news. At the time, so many wrote and talked about it that I felt it would be overkill if I wrote about it. I

WHAT VOICES ARE YOU LISTENING TO?

  Since the internet entered our homes and social media dominates the culture of the world we as a human race have rapidly lost our humanity in many ways. People are so vicious to one another and it is so sad to see how narcissistic we have become as a species. I am often balancing what I read and what I listen to so I do not become toxic and filled with false understandings and beliefs. So it is very important to consider just what voices you are listening to and what voices are you reading. What is the mindset of the people, shows, and music you are allowing into your life? We need to be more alert to not allowing trash into our minds, ears, and eyes. Let us not become a landfill for society's useless trash. If you let garbage in soon it will be garbage out. What is most in your heart will eventually come out the mouth both spoken and written. Matthew 15:18-20
