El Senor Me Recibira, Testimonio (English Captions)


i hope this helps someone.
remember Psalm 27.10 ....
When my father and my mother forsake me,
then the LORD will take care of me.
Salmos 27.10
Porque aunque mi padre y mi madre me hayan abandonado,
el SEÑOR me recogerá.

the difference...at a crossroads


here i am God. You saved me. You loved me and now i love You.
want nothing more than to give You everything. my life which is nothing. my love which is nothing.
my dreams.. which i don't really even remember what they were... they are gone now.
my only dream is to be with You someday. and to serve You while i wait here in this world which i hate.
im lost without You.

a long time ago You saved a little girl who would have surely died under the weight of hopelessness in her home. would have gone to hell without ever a chance at life here or eternally..
if not for Your love and compassion. there was no hope for me from the very beginning.
Had not Your Love saved me.. where would i be... i remember the difference.. i longed to go to church.
though it was not a church that taught me to pray to You..i did anyway. You were there with me.
i saw You. i got to pray to You. i read Your Word.. i was consumed in it. i loved it. i could not understand why people would not repent...yet i was only 7... why would they not repent and turn to this wonderful God who loved them? nobody listens much to children... they did not listen to me... parents..teachers..nobody...
and then i thought You were not listening...
i dont know where this child disappeared to.. the one that loved You so much. the one that Loved Your Word..the one who hid the Bible when her mom walked in the room. i dont remember what made me lose hope in You.. i dont remember why i turned away...
but i do know that You never left me...
You never left me. and i know there words of Yours are true. "I will never leave you nor forsake you."
i remember crying out to You through the years. i remember You speaking to me...
but i didnt know it was You... somehow i always prayed...off and on i prayed...i would search for You in churches.. i searched for You in other religions.. i searched for You in the world ..of evil things.. and deeds.. but they did not fill me. they did not save me they did not comfort.. only destroyed me...
You, Jesus were the only one who never left... people left.. they told me to go. they beat me. the world beat me. the alcohol beat me. the system beat me. the devil beat me down.
You lifted me up... when i cried out to you many years later enough i had had of eating the pigs food.
living in the mud. You ran at me with open arms and hugged my neck.
You were there and oh what JOY oh what LOVE HE did love me!!! You did love me after all!! You did not put me here to torture me!!! YOU LOVED ME!!!!!
what Love. what joy what peace. finally!!!
yet i had forgotten that i had ever walked with You for a time as a child...
i guess the devil tried to steal that from me... and You.. does he still think he can win Jesus?
    From the moment i was back with You... returned to You.. no longer playing the harlot...
in Love with my Husband , my Creator, my Friend my Savior... i wanted to let everyone know
about You Jesus... people who knew me saw the change that comes with true repentance and a relationship with You... You took me back. You took me back. so many never wanted to see me again. hoped i would go.. Yet You never ever left. how patient you are. how kind You are Jesus.
i want nothing more than to be like You. to be conformed to Your image..to have Your characteristics .. Your holiness, goodness, obedience, patience, love, joy, peace, gentleness,.. so much.. long-suffering..
if You were not long-suffering surely You would have cast me in to hell and You would not be true to Your word. But You are faithful to the promises You make.
what a difference You have made in me.
YOU are the difference Jesus, Son of God.
you brought me from death to Life.
from wickedness to Righteousness
from filthy rags to Holiness
from despair to Hope... in You.
from loving the world..sin..drinking...shopping, food, TV, relationships, things, trinkets, education, work..
all trying to fill the whole in my life with those things....
to the hole being filled with Your Holy Spirit...
You baptized me with Your Spirit and i knew Joy that i had never know..laughter that made my sides feel like they would burst.
You let me know i am loved... people do not. they cannot. they know not how.
but You do. You understand me i do not understand me...still five years later... i know less of me than then. and i know more of Who You are..and i only want to serve You.
for  a while You wooed me, loved me, answered every prayer ..it seemed... i was so eager about life.. telling people about You even at work You gave me a job where i could pass out tracts. where i could talk freely about You even thought they thought i was a freak...told me there was a place in Waco for me...
but You used me there... i know You did Lord. a mormon, a catholic, an atheist and a born again believer. what a pile of clay that was amidst all those rocks and landscaping materials... Who can understand Your ways? what joy it gave me to  serve You even in that way.. i wasn't in any kind of "ministry" but i got to spread Your Gospel right where i was. and i knew i was used. i felt i was used. i thought i had a purpose.
the people who were once "friends" slowly.. well they dint want to talk to me so much anymore
except if they needed money... or prayer.. but i wasn't fun anymore.. i didnt do what they did...what i had did... i was "never around".. No. i was never around. i was at home reading my Bible. was at home praying, crying out to You , loving You and knowing You loved me. i was dancing for You in my living room. i was hungry for You. i wanted You more than food for my body. Yet You are the food for my body. i wanted no more shopping for clothes...You had clothed me with Your righteousness. i wanted no more of the people i knew.. i had you. i did not have to try and depend on them.. they never helped anyway... only took from me. they took much from me. but YOU GAVE YOURSELF for ME. me. vile, wretched, despicable, gutter rat me.
You mad me desire You. Your Word. to be Holy. You gave me a desire to go to the ends of the earth and tell people about You even if it meant i be killed. i would leave everything behind. mother told me how dare i even consider going to another country (if only even for two weeks) and leave children behind...
i would leave everything for You Jesus. none had loved me like You. no one loves me like You.
i have left it all behind now Jesus... five years later as You have baptized me in Your fire.
friends...they weren't my friends.
jobs. well...the persecution  of being a religious freak finally showed up... more than once... i was deceived and fell into sin another time...yet You took me back...with hard chastisement..thank you that You consider me a daughter. how stupid of me.. You spoke and spoke anything that does not line up with the Word of God is a lie... over and over and then You were quiet and said no more... until broken and starving in famine i came to You like Joseph's brothers came to him in Egypt ... the brother they had sold in to slavery the brother they despised..and tried to kill...You had turned Your head and cried...Yet You forgave and was glad to see me when i came to You..You forgave... again and again and again my whole life...You gave Your life to forgive me and save me from myself the terror of me the indwelling sin which i so despise. You gave Your life to make me a daughter of Your Father. Who is a God like You??
You have delivered me from death, from so much. so so much. i only long to see others know who You are. about Your love. what You can do. what YOU GAVE. the power of Your blood the power of Your Spirit. the changes You have wrought in me and continue to do so.
in this fire...things have been taken away.. some over and over...i left the college behind to serve You. i wanted to go to christian school to learn about You all day. not knowing what you wanted me to do..i just was tired about learning about the world.. i wanted to sit and hear about You. one thing is needed. and it will not be taken from me. the one thing. to sit at Your feet. and learn of You and love You.


and here am i Lord. i still love You. more in love with You. sometime so confused by You.
confused by everything around me. yet You let me sit at Your feet.
and sometimes i just weep and sleep at Your feet. i have no strength for anything else.
i cling to You for dear life. i want to be with You Jesus. where You are. i know it is far better to be with You than here on this earth. Yet it is not my time. You say. and i long to serve You .. somehow.. whatever way that is.. but i do not know. i have love to give. it is rejected. i have testimony to give but it is not heard. i have hope to share. but no one to give it too. i am trapped in this cubicle and am growing in despair day by day.
thinking i am not in Your will not doing what You made me to do. it gave me joy to share about You. to tell about You. to serve You when and where i could. but i can go no where now. i have words to speak that You give. but none to listen. i have Life inside me to give yet none want it. is this how You felt?
i have food not of this world. i have power You have given to raise the dead. the walking dead and the physically dead.
You say to do these things. i will. but how? how can i God. i have no communication with the outside world.
oh sure face book. church i go to. but talk with no one except for a casual greeting. but no real communication.
is this what You intended for my life. i have Your light in me. but it is hidden under a bushel. i do not want it hidden. i am at a crossroads God and You know this Jesus. this life of mine brought so much pain and degradation. things no one should be exposed to.. comparable to the suffering in a war time prison camp or maybe even what people experienced in the holocaust.. in the trauma suffered... the effects still linger.. a residue..but it makes me have com[passion for hurting people and i can t hold this in any longer i want o help people with what You have given. yet i am not aloud. i am rejected where i live. not even able to get a recommendation letter for service else where... it thought i was where You wanted me. i dont know anymore. i need You to tell me... slowly things here get worse... the light of hope grows dimmer.
depression and despair overtake me.. i want to be used of You... i those around me to have a life worth living.
yet it is not here. trapped in this cell. this cave. so hard to breathe in here sometimes. stifling.
music has lost its appeal. sometimes i even hate it Jesus. and the difference is... i used to only sing to YOU. woke with a song in my heart. went to bed with a song in my heart... to You. now this is so rare..
it is hard to focus on Your Word. the only time i have alone with You is at night. and it is hard to stay awake. to read. to focus.. i miss the hours immersed in Your Word..the hours i had with You..
what happened? where did You go? where did i go?
i must have this back.!!!
this time with You. worshiping You. listening, talking, reading learning.studying. at Your feet.
i must provide a better life for the ones You have entrusted to me.
this is not it. where we are. this situation.. this isolation cell...
to get time back with You and make things better for all of us... i only see a crossroads..
here or there... where? what do i do Jesus?
do we stay or do we go?
will You use me here and i get to spend time with You again... im so starving for You... the joy is gone.. hope dwindles...food is sparse... i cant live on regurgitated food. i need my own that YOU give me!!! PLEASE!!!
sometimes my throat is so dry i cannot drink. there is no water in this dry and weary land. i am desperate. for You. for change. for the something new... that ive been hearing about for years now... this new thing You are doing....i have a few days Lord.. i cannot face another year like this...so  if i dont serve here.. then we will go. i dont know what Your will is..i only want Your will...but i am so hungry for You so desperate for You to serve You... we will go..and wont be isolated...i will once again get to be immersed in YOU. and those around me will have a life with sunshine for health and bones. friends. fresh air and not weeping and despair all around... i do not know Your will for me. i thought i did. oh i thought i did so many times...i was doing right..waiting for the right thing...doing the right thing...thought it was You... i know nothing..am nothing. have no hope in anything or anyone but YOU.
i hope You will restore unto me the joy of my salvation. i hope You find me worthy of my calling. i hope please You i hope i get to be alone with You more. i hope in being with You someday is the only thing that keeps me going. church service feeds me while im there.. a little...
i used to be desperate to get there..feeling like i would literally die if i did not go and get fed.
now.. i feel sometimes i will die, IF i go. the difference...
its been so long and i am useless and hated and scorned...it is not a safe place for me. i can not get fed and fight to live at the same time... when the food feels like it is thrown at me and i am mocked where i come to eat and get refuge and drink..what do i do Jesus? what do i do??? no matter what i do there it seems as if it is not right. im hungry so so hungry tha ti have bloated in my physical weight yet i am hungry for spiritual food i am not getting. when the enemies are around yo have to eat fast on your toes..no time to savor the meal. no time to chew.. but has to be swallowed whole.
the digestive process is messed up and im left wanting. does a shepherd feed his sheep and fight the enemy at the same time? im not a shepherd in the wilderness... but i dont think that is how it worked.
im lost Lord. i want only to do Your will but i know not what to do. i dont hear You calling me. i dont see You. i dont smell YOU. no other sheep around me..night is falling.. where do i go what do i do.
please tell me. GOD please tell me. i dont want to do the wrong thing. i dont want to go the wrong way.
i wanted family. YOUR Family. i wanted fellowship. real fellowship. i wanted to learn more of You. i wanted to be with those who love YOU. but im alone. too many bad thoughts i suppose. legions of them so i am rejected. unwanted and hated by the majority. does majority rule in Your kingdom?
i want so much to reach out an d love yet i am continually misunderstood. i want to spend time with the people who love You. but im alone. and so i can be alone at the other place. but i can be alone with You.
and i can "watch" in peace there if i am not needed where i am Lord. please make this clear. please tell me where to go and what to do. Father-- HELP me. PLEASE. i only want to do what i hear Jesus tell me to do.
i want to obey. i want to please. i want to live holy and i want to serve YOU. i dont really want to go Lord. but i think i have no other choice. maybe too much damage is done. we are only human. them and me.
what do YOU want LORD? what do YOU want. i cant be anyone but who You made. but something has to give. something has to FORgive. and talk about it openly. i know this is true. i know this is true and guts need to be splattered all over the floor. noses dripping with snot and eyes red from tears. yet what is keeping this from happening. pride? thinking nothing wrong saying it never bothered..what is it...walls need to be smashed. im sitting at the base...waiting..i tired before..i stood up in front of everyone and asked forgiveness... yet no one said a word to me afterward.... i keep having to ask forgiveness..but how to i ask forgiveness for my thoughts...which no one knows but me...or maybe they perceive...by my downcast face something not right.. not happy...what can i do to make things right God what can i do do i go to each and every person and say im sorry for this..im sorry for whatever i did...im sorry i did something... but i dont know what it was i did... can you forgive me
i really want to be a part of this family in God...but my own flesh and blood family didnt want me.... i know when its time to move on...a soldier can smell that smell.... the silence.. that shouldnt be so silent...
somethings not right.... i dont think were in kansas anymore...
if i must be alone than i would rather be alone else where Jesus. if i am to serve YOU. please make it happen.
if i am to go. then please arrange a clear path. either way.... i need Your blessing. Your will to be done not mine. but if i dont know anything by the first... im starting the process of going on with a really new year else where... i dont know what You want me to do Lord. i dont know. please help me. please show me the way that You have made for me to do good works that You prepared from before the foundation of the world.
Your will not mine be done Jesus for glory to You and Daddy.

faithful


“And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write,
‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true,  
“He who has the key of David,  
He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”:
“I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door,
and no one can shut it;
for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.
Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—
indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
Because you have kept My command to persevere,
I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world,
to test those who dwell on the earth.
Behold, I am coming quickly!
Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown.
He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more.
I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God,
the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God.
And I will write on him My new name.
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’
Revelation 3.7-13

and he prayed


But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness,
and came and sat down under a broom tree.
And he prayed that he might die, and said, “It is enough!
Now, LORD, take my life, for I no better than my fathers!”
1 Kings 19.4

Prepare to meet your GOD

than eat the world's delicacies or bow down to the golden image.

Compromising Christianity by Keith Daniel



it is heartbreaking. and i am tired of this land and hearing of revival and awakenings. it will not happen until this land is shaken to its core by GOD.
this modern church loves the world more than they love GOD.
i tell you and there are few the Lord has probably close to the 7,000 and that is it!!!
but after the destruction that comes to the USA and the west...the persecution of real christians will bring forth by planting seeds in blood the blood of martyrs again on amercian soil not just the other parts of the world that are considered LESS. to me they are more. they live out their faith without this fake churchianity and tv preacher thieves!! then this land will have real CHRISTIANITY. and the name Christian will again be a mockery and those with he name of Christian and those who call on Jesus will be despised and hated.
they wont be using church for singles clubs anymore or to try and stave their guilty consciences by giving a few bucks each week.
ENOUGH!!!!
ive had enough of this!!!
GOD please do something!!! i am tired of this .. i want to see YOU glorified whatever that means!!! in death in life in peace and in calamity GOD be GLORIFIED!!!!!

please God help!

Woman, why weepest thou?


i just found this treasure chest of more free books to read online.
no...since i read Broken for a Purpose i have found no purpose for my life.
although i wiash to be used of Him i dont know it will ever happen.
my life is not my own. i have no will. it is all His. but i sit in pain and sorrow
and suffering and wait for Him. it seems as thought He has shut up His ears to me
and no longer sshows His face to me.
i am in despair one moment and numb the next.
but someday i will be with Him.
this i wait for,
i know im born of the Spirit.
so God cannot lie. unless He is casting me away.. i will get to be with Him. i think i am unprofitable servant.
God says all those who come to Me i will in no wise cast out. im not sure what is going on.
but for His name's sake and His glory i beleive i will go to heaven to be with Him.
i pray He doesnt tell me He never knew me.
because i sure love Him and i have only wanted Him above all else.
so anyway here is the link to the book.."Woman, Why Are You Weeping?"
i wonder if you read it maybe you would comment. about it.
i sure would like someone to talk to..even if it is only on a blog.

its real. the war is real



-if this war is real...and it IS...For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
(Ephesians 6.12)

-but the Lord has already won it...~He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
(Hebrews 2.14-15)

-yet He fights for me...The LORD your God, who goes before you, He will fight for you, according to all He did for you in Egypt before your eyes..
(Deuteronomy 1.30)

-stand strong and see the salvation of the Lord...
You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the LORD, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!’ Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the LORD is with you.”
2 Chronicles 2.17

but there are so many battles.. and so many
casualties.. wounded... dying.. is there hope?
why do soldiers leave each other behind?
why are soldiers not treated equally among each other..
in this battle not of flesh and blood.. there is only One Commander..
there are no 1st Sergeants, no brass butter bars, no PFC's and no Colonels.

ONE God. One Shepherd. One Lord. ONE ARMY.
not army of one...

One Body? well who attends to the sucking chest wound...who applies gauze to the bleeding.
who applies the tourniquet? what if someone shoots their toe off? does the whole body get thrown out of the army?
where is the camaraderie? or you might say unity....
i will tell you..
it is being devoured by the enemy as one another nit pick and backbite,
gossiping and not loving.
But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!
(Galatians 5.15)
they are not letting the wounds in the body heal, but are infecting them more
and tearing off the scab re-opening the wound.
some walk with a limp.
some with crippled hands.
some with brokenness.

constant defeat on the battlefield leads to hopelessness
and despair. Paul despaired of life.
He was treated very bad by the people of God.

where is the one who will help his or her brethren? where are the Pauls and Timothys? Where are good men like Titus? Where are the modern Lydias and Tryphena and Tryphosa Where is Peter? Where is Chloe?
Where is Jesus walking now?
are christians so selfish that they will turn from the wounded
and dying with their nose in the air as if nothing is happening?




didnt Christ die for ALL HIS BRETHREN? did not Father give them too HIM?
where is the one who is not afraid of helping others? no matter who they are
or what they have done?? God has mercy...
are we not to follow in Christ's footsteps?
He did say "Follow Me." (Mark 8.34) He said "follow Me" over and over...


Tell me...is the battle against satan with the Body of Christ as one unified front able to defeat the enemy?
or is it the body of Christ fighting amongst themselves, tearing each other apart.
Agape love grows so cold...it is like ice.. and hard hearts.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this:
“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
Galatians 5.14

suffer in silence

.... unanswered prayer.

fainting in my heart?
You heard me..
why did You not save me.
i was a little girl.
never given a chance at life from the moment
i was conceived.
no purity.
worse than a leper.
yet his disease was only skin deep...
mine ravaged my body
and engulfed my soul.
still i am effected.
still You have not delivered me.
though You promise too?
maybe im wrong.
no unclean thing will enter heaven.
You saved me.
what will you do with me.
i cant stand my flesh.
i cant stand myself.
and i have no more will to live.

grace to suffer well

pray for.... grace to suffer well.

this is a request for missionaries in north India trying to reach people
with the Gospel of Peace.. the name of Jesus Christ.
the only name given among men where by we must be saved. ( Acts 4.12)

what does suffer well mean?

does this mean not opening my mouth.? like Jesus?
He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; And as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
so He opened not His mouth. (Acts. 8.32)

when slandered we try to reconcile? (1 Corinthians 4.13)
Love our enemies, do good to those who hate you? (Matt. 5.43-48)

to do anything well. is to do  it like Jesus. God. He does all things well. (Mark 7.37)
so He is my example in which to suffer. Called to suffer. Chosen to suffer.
Adopted into the family of God. God is my Father.
i want to please Him.
Abba. Father. Daddy!!
And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts,
crying out, “Abba, Father!” (Galatians 4.4-7)
...you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” (Romans 8.15)
there is no other reason i would even think of suffering for..except my children.
and maybe another brother or sister...but we are to lay down our life for Him.
this, i will gladly do, rejoicing that i be found worthy to suffer for His Name's sake.
Lord, give me grace to suffer well.
Like You.
remember, i want to to be just like You.
with all fruits of the Spirit. You are the joy set before me Jesus.
outside the camp i was the joy set before You.
i will follow You wherever you go...
where else can i go? to whom can i go to?
there is no other i run to but You...
let it always be so Jesus.
let my heart always seek after You.
follow You, pant after You.
my soul thirst more and more for You,
Jesus. For You said,
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be filled.

please. more grace Lord. more direction Holy Spirit. more comfort please. more Love Father.
more of You Jesus. please more grace. and so much less of me. more grace. grace upon grace.
stamp eternity on my eyelids.
YOU are eternity for me.
let me see You always before me.
i pray for grace to suffer well , Jesus.

im His


"You are Mine."
He said to me in the midst of sorrow and tears over my 
wretchedness and just wanting to read the Bible.. but everything against me;
and my flesh-- enemy number one. i hate my flesh..
this battle between flesh and spirit.
But i am His. He comforted me-- GOD comforted me... me-- of all people!

..." I will put my Laws in their mind, and in their heart I will write them,
and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. ~ Hebrews 8.10
