It was answered prayer...God wants only the best for us.

 A few days after the plot of desert I was planning on getting sold, another I had overlooked caught my attention. It solved most of the 'problems' the other site presented to me. The deed is scheduled to be done by 15 Feb.
 This has put me in hurry up mode at a time I can barely hurry up. Severe cold with snow and ice, limits my traveling ability. I can't afford to be out in it long and there is always the chance of getting stuck. You can't get very far in a chair in snow and ice. BUT, with God, all things are possible!
 Today, I took my truck to get some work done on it in preparation for the move. Cold and snowy out, single digits. The ice didn't even start to melt on my windshield when I arrived there. Sat around for 5 hours then said my goodbyes to them. Came the long way home to look at the scenery. I know I am not going to see it again, probably, once I move. Been taking pictures every time I go for a drive for a few years now, for memories. It is 'home' after all. But my TRUE home isn't here. I long for the promised home that Jesus is to provide, with Him and our Father, for eternity.
 Here is a link to my facebook page. I have posted for years, trying to get information out there for people that want to know truth. Why are we, who put us here, and what in the world is going on here... those who do not believe this world is all there is. Our Creator is soon to put and end to sin and suffering in this world. Get to know Him and His plan for you.

Beauty in the cold...

 Took one of my favorite drives, to Newfound Gap Today. As I drive, I always listen to one of many books written by my favorite author outside of the Bible. Patriarchs and Prophets, by Ellen G. White, A commentary on said men, in the Bible. I highly recommend reading and/or listening to it, as well as any of the many books and articles she has written. They will help you grow in faith and knowledge, as well as your relationship with Christ will become greater/closer...they always lead you back to study the Bible more and more.

Too slow or anwer to prayer?

 The spot of land I was looking to buy sold unexpectedly. My first thought when I read the email was, "waited too long". Immediately after the thought hit me, I realized it was an answer to my prayer...as always. I end every prayer asking that His will be done, as I do not want to do anything not according to what is best for me or for those I am praying for. We do not always know what we ought to pray for, the Holy Spirit knows what we need (Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us...Romans 8:26).
 Ah, the perfect peace that comes from knowing EVERY good and perfect gift comes from the Father of Lights, our Almighty God. THY will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Thank you Father.
