Webkinz

...From their website: Webkinz pets are lovable plush pets that each come with a unique Secret Code. With it, you enter Webkinz World where you care for your virtual pet, answer trivia, earn KinzCash, and play the best kids games on the net!

We Got Joy one a couple weeks ago. What was life like BEFORE Webkinz??
It is wild. Joy feeds her "pinky" pony, exercise her (bought her a treadmill), and talks and plays.
She loved it SOO much..Helena HAD to get one. They can communicate through premade phrases, send each other email etc.
THEN: a girl at school got one.
I'm amazed.
Part of me is (the ex fundy part I think) like..WHOA...what a perfect set up for future gamblers--kids earn $$ that they then can spend on their pet. Play Games, earn money, buy stuff. WOW..sounds like a blast.

Middle names?

I wonder if Jesus uses your middle name when He's fed up with you, like your parents did.


Donna LEA Husted...

Or as hub says when he's funny...DWONA LEEE

Purple??

Your Blog Should Be Purple

You're an expressive, offbeat blogger who tends to write about anything and everything.
You tend to set blogging trends, and you're the most likely to write your own meme or survey.
You are a bit distant though. Your blog is all about you - not what anyone else has to say.

Being Vulnerable with Jesus

Idon't know anything about Jill Austin..if shes' a freak a frak or what..But my former pastor used to say that "All truth is God's truth"..and I found a lot of truth in this reading.
D.




Jill Austin: "BEING VULNERABLE WITH JESUS--LET HIM TAKE YOUR HEART DEEPER"
"Lord, we ask You to take down the walls of self-protection."
We have learned how to build our walls, even in the House of the Lord, but we cry out for a vulnerability to allow the Lord to show us our own brokenness and humanity so we can see how big God is in the midst of it.
He doesn't want us to assume that we should build a ministry and then God will come and fill it. We need to build our lives around the anointing that is in the depths of who we are. We need more of His presence. I pray that the Lord will show you if you have tried yourselves to carry His glory in your ministry, in your home meetings, or in your family.
Ears and Eyes Opened and Cleansed
We also need to cry out for our ears to be opened to hear what the Spirit is saying and pray that God will give us fresh revelation. We need to ask the Lord to take away spiritual deafness where we've assumed and have taken blueprint plans of man without going to God for fresh fire and unction.
We need to ask God for a cleansing where our ears have heard profanity, gossip, and slander. We must cry out that God will start to convict us of things that we hear that are illegal in the Spirit. We have even heard different people being assassinated in our midst. May God forgive us for listening and doing nothing or chiming in on the verbal assaults of other people.
We need to watch our eyes (eye gate), which are a window to the soul. God has called us to be a prophetic people who hear and speak the Lord's heart, to be seers who see in the Spirit, and to be prophetic intercessors and watchmen. What we have seen, has placed "scales" of rebellion and independence over our eyes so many see with a dim vision. We must repent for seeing movies that are filled with violence, murder, and sexual perversion. We need to repent of every single thing that would cloud our ability to see with clarity and purity.
We also are to deal with our mouths, and ask God to make us fiery preachers with a prophetic unction in our homes, at work, and in our neighborhoods. Let's ask the Lord to put a coal of fire on our mouths and to cleanse our mouths where we have "killed" people and ministries instead of bringing life and encouragement through our words.
We must also give Jesus our hands. Let His fire start to fall on our hands for an anointing of healing and miracles and deliverance. Let there be a purifying fire, so as we stand as Levites before the Lord, may there be a cleansing fire of His presence.
The Lord Says...
"Let Me purify your heart; let Me touch you by My Son.
Let me make you clean, so you're a vessel that My glory can flow through.
Submit to My fire, and I will cause you to walk in purity.
Receive My fire; let it burn you clean.
Let Me restore the innocence of your childhood to you.
Let My fire come; let it burn you clean,
So that you may be the vessel of honor to Me."
I feel that the Lord wants those of you who feel you've been in the "killing fields" of the church, your family, or work to come to Jesus with your deep pain and betrayals. It's like seeing heavy boots coming against you, and I feel there has been a type of spiritual abuse that has come against many of you to keep you from moving into the prophetic and who you are in God.
God says that He has given you birthright, and He has called you.
A Powerful Prayer to Break Off Chains
"I break the lies that have come against you. I break the fear of man off of you. I break even the words of others questioning whether or not you hear God."
For the women, "I break the fear of man off of your heads and the words from those who say you can't move in the anointing as a woman of God." Some of you have felt like you have had spears in your heart, "I break the power of those word curses against you right now."
"I also break the lid off of the heads of people who are moving at half your potential, and functioning at only 30% or 40%. I break the lies of the enemy off of your heads that would cause you to operate at your bare minimum!"
Some of you need to forgive people because it is your unforgiveness that is holding you back from flying like eagles. I'm asking the Lord to start to show each of you if there are people you need to forgive and let go of. And I ask that He shows you where there is unfinished business in your life. We must forgive at the foot of the Cross.
As you forgive and release others, I pray that the Lord takes you deeper.

How Angry can a person get....

Before their head explodes.
I'm beyond angry. I'm so angry I feel stupid. Crying doesn't help it just gives me a headache.

Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'.
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin ..Dylan

I am the one stalled. I'm the one that is getting battled on. and it 'ain't pretty.
Literally, every moment for a while I feel like I've had to remind myself to "Breathe, Breathe, Breathe".

ARKANSAS

Hub and I arrived amid th worst ice storm in Michign. When we landed one of the FIRST differences I noticed was ..well I had a vistage memory of it. I will try and explain...UP in sky ...WAY up...above the clouds...was this golden ORB....eschewing LIGHT..down here they call it the SUN. WOW. Really bright!!
So then we came here, Sara and roommmate Daisy was here to watch the urchins, and we went to a barbeque place called Penquin Als. I guess he just like penquins, I dont think he barbeques them.
We had GREAT Fried pickles, another in our world wide search. These were beer battered "PICKLE CHIPS". Yah. Really good.
the ribs were the best , Brisket good, Ness loved the Coleslaw, yum yum.
but the best thing of all...was of course...the company.
I like Arkansas.
