2-12-2015. Moving

I hope you are all having a great week!   I am going to be away for a few days as we are in moving mode.

Remember the Lord Your Creator is with you. If you don't know Him yet, just say LORD I would like to know you! He will answer if done sincerely. Find a Holy Bible, hard copy or online. Biblegateway has many different versions.  Please contact me at dshouppe@gmail.com if you have any questions, urgent prayer request, or just need a friend, I will answer quickly as possible,long as have Internet.

Love to you all.   For those who want to know Him more and more,you know how to do that.  Study His word and receive His love and guidance. That is where I am going right now.

In His love,

Deanna

February 8,2015. Just rest and know God!

Most  of my life has been spent on dealing with medical issues and trying to be better as a human being.  I love God and His word' I truly want to be more like Jesus, but alas I am human and I fail.  I would like to say that my first response to a new issue is to Praise God first. Guess what it is not! My first response is to be alarmed, then this is really hard, and then a little grousing and then God I need your strenght. And you know what He gives it to me every Time! Then I ask forgiveness for not calling on Him at first.  I am just so thankful that as time goes on in walking with Him, it takes less time for me to give it to Him than earlier in my walk with Him. I think some call it "maturing in the Faith".  I just know that I cannot grow closer to Him without being in His Word,  truly the best way. I try to refrain from things that are against His ways. Just I fail at this too. Sometimes wanting to watch something on tv I shouldn't but I keep on trying! Just keep on in His ways, His principles and precepts. He will never leave you, we may turn away from Him, but He is waiting for your return. Just like Prodgical son. Whilst away he was lost, he had turned away from his father. But when he returned home his father was waiting for him.with wide opened arms!  

Today has been one filled with new physical trials and pain. Progressive MS is progressive. It is the first time I was not able to walk to restroom . I called out for Deron, he came..walker won't fit thru doors but Thanks be to God, I have arm crutches and was able to drag self to bathroom. We had hoped to shower today but will have to wait till tomorrow. I don't like showering and Dr.appointments on same day because energy depletion, but we do what we have to do. And what is so just so promising is my faith. That  My God, My Lord will be with me and give me the strenght to do it!

I so long for new fixed body in Heaven with My God! 

I love you all!  Keep on trusting,praying and being with God!

February 6,2015. Musings and such.

The past couple of days has flown by with appointments and much needed sleep! I say that because my eyes would not stay open!    One of the more common symptoms of progressive MS is exhaustion,not simply tired but the feeling of being totally unplug like a old tv or radio. No matter what I may try ,my shell this vessel body, will not stay awake. God has helped me relinquish that control and just trust that He is telling me, ok kido time for a rest. It maybe just a few minutes or maybe hours. I have and still am trying to just be. To truly relax and let God have control.  I was born a controll freak so God has been teaching that lesson to me very patiently over the years. For the most part I just go with flow but definetly there are times when I buck up,especially if someone is threatening who I am.  Or trying to take away my role as momma or wife. I believe in boundaries and sometimes without knowing it I cross boundaries but mostly if I know them then I behave.  I have to learn though that there are some in this world that will never understand the concept of boundaries and believe that everything involves them or have right to know.  We must learn to forgive them,love them and just move on. If we don't we are the ones who end up hurt. We must forgive because if we don't then why would we think we are forgiven for our traspasses by God who is above all!

He loves us so much that He sent His only son,Jesus, to take on our sins and shed His blood ,dying in our place so that those who believe may live all Eternity with God in the New Heavens and Earth!

Please study John 3:17-36.    These passages will enlighten you to Truth of God's word about His love for us!   I have to share some, I get so excited....John3:18 NASB version...He who.believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19: This is the judgement,that the Light has come into the world,and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil.20: For everyone who does evil hates the Light,and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.21: But he who practices the truth comes to the Light,so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God.

I love these verses. I hope you will too. Have an awesome day tomorrow! Rejoice in God and choose ,I hope, to walk in His ways, live by His standards!

Blessings to you all.

God loves you, He is there for you!

God is always near!  His spirit wants to give you wisdom and Truth. Please open the eyes of your heart to what He is saying to you. He loves you and wants you to be with Him. You must first receive Him. Deny others, pu your cross and follow Him. Some will be very glad of your decision, others maybe not so much. My dear sister was disowned, but by the strength of God she continued in her faith and continued to share it with me! I thank God for the strenght He gave her and my dear Brother in law for not stopping and the fact they continued to show God's love for me thru their actions. I am very blessed indeed!

That was more than thirty years ago. I grew up, married, moved away. Along the Journey, oh boy what a journey full of spiritual markers in my life. The friendships and mentors of faith along the way. But I have never been closer to God's loving face than I am now, I hope and pray to continue in growth. All glory to God,my King,my Father and the source of  strenght,Joy and Peace. He said will will suffer much and struggle because this world does not belong to Him or Us. it is Satan's realm and we have a choice..Free Will is choice..we can follow and seek God moment by moment or if we don't do that we are saying we will choose this world and its ruler.   I pray that each of us will make the choice to follow God!

For studying His truth I urge you to read Revelations chapter two vs 24-29. Or start just above and see what God has to say about Jezebel! Study so you may know the truth. Don't trust my word,or anybody's word but look up the Word and see what God has to say about it.  Remember, He does say that there are many deceives and I personally believe that unfortunately , there are a lot of ministries and churches with receivers in them. Beware  and know who you are following...Man or God and His ministers of truth?

Love to all who read this and God's word, any questions or statements as long as clean words no profanity are in the comments are welcomed.  I am like you , just a person, no training in ministry. Just a love that I want to share.

Blessings to you all.

Hello

Today I just want to encourage you! You are never left alone! If you need help, God is always there. You have to acknowledge that fact and reach out. God is a Just God, He will not force Himself upon you. So stop thinking you should be able to do whatever, and ask God. "And wait upon Him. Pray without ceasing!  I love you all but most important is God loves you ! He made you'

Have a blessed eve.

Today I crocheted a bit but slow at it. It has been a cog fog today.LOL I am getting those more and more. Also leaning much on God Almighty, the spasms are really making themselves known today. God gives me the strength I need to make it moment by moment! As much as I love my dear Husband and family, God is my exhuberrant love! He is always loving and kind, never leaves me and places and keeps me under the shadow of His wing!  Days like today and truly every day I want Him and need Him! He is truly my strength and I only want to please Him. And boy do I fail at that. I hear myself all thru the day confessing something I did or thought and asking to Him to please forgive me!   He does every time.  I think that "abiding and living in Him is the only way to stay close to Him and to know His truth! Not by listening to fallible humans but to the infallible Word of God. Today I was studying about the Jewish people who rejected Christ and the Gentiles who believe in Him.  Romans Chapter 11:1-24 but study it please. As Kay Arthur teaches in inductive study, ask what, where,why, when and how. Know the context the audience that is hearing this message. Oh I really got into 11:20&21.

I love to really study His word. It gives me so much true Peace and deep down Joy.  Please if you want to discuss with me leave comment and way of contact that is best for you or email info at dshouppe@gmail.com.

Again please no harsh words or profanity.  And know I am just a person trying to get to know her Lord. I am in no way a teacher or scholar. Just share what I find exciting in God's word.
Love to all and soft hugs!
