There Is A Bad Moon Rising...

 

 

There's A Bad Moon Rising

We were just overwhelmed with the Full Moons intensity recently.

There is a sense that has had me very quiet in the last few months.

Some call it the Political Sphere;

Some call it the End Days

Some call it Fear Mongering

Some call it Evil

Some call it Persecution

Some call it...

Whatever you may think of these days we are experiencing;

The bottom line is this,

"A Bad Moon Is Rising"

This (Thing) is trying to control us.

The (Thing) wants to destroy us.

This (Thing) wants to kill us.

You must of heard somewhere on the internet or news,

That they want to get rid of 90% of the world's population.

Now, that must make you feel warm and cozy deep down!    (NOT)...

I heard that Halloween is the second most celebrated season in our country!

All of this makes me want to follow even more the ancient pathways that the

Lord has given us to follow!

There is a plague of death everywhere.

From movies to songs to tattoos, to decorations and jewelry.

So I just wanted to say this, I have nothing in common with what

Is going on in our society.

I want nothing to do with the evil that is being spun on social media.

Or our news stations, or the political bashing.

What was once the agencies that were put in place to protect us?;!

Is now what is being used against anyone who tries to think or speak,

Outside the narrator that is being woven in the minds and hearts of many!

Can you be so easily deceived?

Can you not discern between evil and good?

So, I will say this dear one's, I will continue blogging for those of us

That are like minded and yet are not oblivious of the onslaught.

We will not be overcome by evil!

We will overcome evil with good!

But, Look-Up for your redemption draweth nigh.

Please forgive me for not posting or writing as often,

But I think we can all relate to the facts before us.

Time is so valuable!

And time is accelerating!

So be mindful of what you deem is valuable!

If there ever was a time to give 10% of your time to the Lord;

~The Time Is Now~

Blessings, to those that have read my Blog postings these last 10 years.

Blessings, to those who desire to know the Truth.

Blessings, to those who pray for the Fathers Will To Be Done...

Stocking Up On Taters And Dehydrating Frozen Vegtables...

 

Potatoes In Your Pantry

Hopefully you're all very busy stocking your pantry.

Potatoes are a staple in my pantry.

But they have become very high priced.

I have bought shredded frozen Hash browns and then dehydrated them.

My daughter told me to buy the canned ones, as they are easy to fry up,

And to use them in soups or a small batch of potato salad.

Also purchased dried flaked potatoes for mashed taters.

If you have not started your stocking up, I am afraid you will

Be paying a much higher price, so don't wait any longer!

The potatoes  were almost 12.00 dollars a 5lb. bag!!

I will check our local Farmers Market today.

I have pressured canned potatoes many years ago when prices were high.

I think I may be putting some up again.

Do what you can ladies to feel the wonderful feeling of

Putting up the harvest or bounty.

Do you have a dehydrator?

This little machine is a work horse for

 Putting up a long term vegetable's.

It's really easy if you buy frozen ones, then put in the dehydrator,

~I have done frozen bags of these items so far~

Peas, Shredded potato, spinach, onions. green beans,

Carrots, mixed vegetables!

Going to get some frozen Kale for soups later to dehydrate.

As you do not have to blanch them.

Then I place them in a glass jar and vacuum seal them for the long term.

But if you just want them for your daily cooking just keep

In a cool, dark pantry and use in soups and stews.

They rehydrate really well, Just place some in a boil and add some hot water.

What are you doing to combat high food prices?

Buy on sale...

Buy in bulk...

Buy at least 5 of everything when shopping of even one item...

Build up your Pantry...

Get creative...

Everyone can do something...

I have been so busy putting food for my Family

May you see and Feel the URGENCY also...

Prepare For Hard Times

Is Fun working on Your Pantry...

Tell me are your eyes open or are you still sleeping?

Stock Your Pantry With Beans...

 

Beans, And More Beans...

Stocking Up On Foods For Your Family

Preparing for what has been planned;

Can you even imagine having to be rationed?

We have lived in the land of plenty!

We were assured of grain, because of the breadbasket of our nation,

It thrived and was given seed and water and fertilizer.

But we are now seeing shortages

But, after reading and talking to many people;

The consensus is the shortages have not even begun!

So, I write this post pleading with the ladies that have been,

Reading about what is going on in the world.

Will start  preparing or continue for hardships!

The term being a Prepper has a whole new meaning for many!

I am going to start with a few basic ideas and a few tips I have learned!

I always think of the scripture

Strength and dignity are her clothing,

She laughs at the days to come!

Proverbs 31:25

"Firstly, God is our provider, He takes care of His Own"

Start with the basic's...

What are they?

Food and Water

Shelter

Let's start with what everyone can afford to do;

Beans...

Use your creative cooking skills and have the directions on how to cook them!

Write down some recipes or ideas in how to use them!

Black Eye Peas

Lentils

Northern Beans

Lima Beans

Black beans

Pinto Beans

Split Peas

Garbanzo Beans

Try to put back canned beans and dried beans!

The canned beans need to be stored in a cool dark place!

(They will last for 10-20 years)

Those expiration dates are for the government;

Always check the structure of each can before putting in your cart!

Any dents, or squishy top is compromised!

Must be in perfect condition.

Buy the Store Brand Name, usually cheaper!

Place your dry beans in the original package

 In a glass jar or a sturdy tin or tub.

Every time you go to the store, you should

Purchase a dry or can bean until you have at least a months worth!

TIP: Find a place in your home to start your Food Storage!

Clean it it out and organize what you may already have.

Do not throw out expired foods, if you were really hungry

 You would eat and be grateful!

TIP: Dispose of cans that are dented, rusty or bulging.

If you open it and smells off, dispose of it!

Remember beans are a staple and so frugal and delicious!

How many days worth of good protein and fiber do you have?

Time To Stock Up And Put Back...

 

Time To Stock Up And Put Back

I heard a gentleman a few years back speaking on

Investing your monies.

 I have found myself thinking about what he said.

He explained how the market worked;

But when he said your purchasing power was best used by

Buying foods and items that would continue to rise in price.

Greetings to so many out there;

We took a trip and traveled to many places.

I came back with an awareness that I didn't have before.

Sometimes when you live in a small town, and don't get out much,

You may not see how much our America has changed!

Most the people we saw and chatted with were keenly

Aware of the changes in their lives and their cities.

When we arrived back home,

 we both felt we needed to be more

prepared...

Make a plan!!

Buy what you will cook or prepare and enjoy eating first!

Then put back food staples.

Be mindful and prayerful!!

The shifting has started and I believe rough times may be ahead!

I am not an alarmist, but a practical wise woman!

Get busy

Prices are rising weekly

Many are warning of shortages

Watch for sales at your market!

Look at bags of self-rising flour, they were very inexpensive

Compared to regular flour!

Shall I say more on this subject?

Blessings, Roxy

Redeeming The Time...

 The Time Is Now

Redeeming the time, Because the days are evil.

One thing I am always amazed at is how even in trials and unrest;

Our God will give us times of rest. Free from pain or lack of sleep.

Redeeming the time is something we can do every single day!

We will not always even be aware that we are redeeming the time.

It really is always on God's timetable!

I believe even those little prayers we breath out can change a situation.

We must refuse and resist the urge to give up!

I am always filled with wonder when I see someone who

overcomes and keeps planting a certain flower seed.

Believing it will sprout and give her a beautiful flower garden.

We are drawn to the scriptures and the stories of those that,

Did not give up and persevered in hard times.

Some call it pure grit;

I call it pure Grace...

I believe this country has a divine destiny USA

I believe each person that is part of Gods elect will fulfill

All that God has given him or her to do!

Fill your heart with fuel to travel far!

But there is only a gap to stop and reflect on what is important!

The future is certain, you are part of His plan!

He will use us if we are willing!

Let not your heart be troubled...

All Lies And Deceptions Will Be Exposed...

 What's Real?

We are so blessed to be able to enjoy what is real...

Don't be fooled by lies promoted by so many times to dull your senses!

The sky can have many different colors;

After a rain storm, or a storm moving in.

 And when the sun is rising in the early morning!

Or when the sun is setting in the west.

But ultimately we will all know the sky is Blue.

True nature will not change!

The blossoms on a fruit or flowering tree will smell sweet.

The true fragrance can not be denied.

Don't walk around in a cloud or a haze of indifference.

I always have loved being convinced in my own heart of what scripture says,

About everything...

If you study the real artifact or painting, you will be able to

spot the imposter or fake one. But even in that there are such

perfect imposters if it were possible you could be fooled.

But I choose to believe that all the lies and deceptions will be exposed!

Some have even tried to take a Rainbow and make it to represent

something other than a symbol of God's promise to never allow the Earth

To be destroyed by a flood ever again!

Stand On The Promises Of God Your Savior...

blessings, Roxy

Learning To Hold Your Post...

 

Pretty In Blue

A pretty simple blue bowl can make me happy!

I have learned to stop allowing the weirdness of this culture and world;

To make my life miserable!

We must live with purpose and impact!

There are more plots to destroy your peace than ever before!

But just ignore most the chatter and get busy living!

Is there ever a day that goes by that you were not able to do something?

It truly will be the little things that bring comfort!

Do not give up the fight to be at peace and keeping your home a refuge!

My advice to you today will be to be mindful of being frugal!

Do those little remakes and upcycle of your goods!

Spray painting my outdoor decor and painting little wooden items!

Go through your drawers and cupboards and rearrange some of your decor.

~Do not allow yourself to become weary in doing good~

Refuse to be a part of the woke weirdness,

Be strong and courageous in your homemaking and family.

Keep your haven clean and tidy.

Turn off what brings disturbance to your mind or heart!

You can learn to be content and rich with really very simple living!

Many women are still holding their post!

Just don't survive; But overcome...

Keep your heart tender and strengthen your hands!

Always dear Ones, Kindred spirits...

Hugs, Living From Glory To Glory

I love these flowers called Blue Flax

I do hope you are enjoying the flowers blooming everywhere!

Remember to stop and smell the Roses...

Beware Of The Dangers Of Engaging In Gossip...

Beware Of The Dangers Of Engaging In Gossip

How wonderful it is that the Holy Spirit will convict you of your sin!

If you love the Lord and you want to please Him, He will have to teach you 

Many things as you live and grow in Him daily!

If you have been a Christian and have read your Bible often;

You would of read many scriptures about gossip.

But many times we just skim over a certain passage because it's

Along side words like murder or adultery;

As these sins may not be anything you have done.

But tucked along side these words are the words like gossip or malice and slander.

So I am grateful to be shown the error of my ways;

Maybe it was not done with the intent to cause harm, But

It's still wrong for me to engage in this behavior.

Beware of the danger of Gossip...

We can still get caught in a trap of our thinking or words we speak.

When you think of sin, it's usually something really bad;

So we can be unaware of the sin of Gossip!

Gossip can start out just repeating something you saw or heard,

And can quickly turn into a terrible wave of lies and malice and

Just plain old strong imagination or evil intent.

Or just not being mindful of what is coming out of one's mouth...

So I am grateful that I have recognized this sin creeping into my speaking!

It started out small, (speaking my opinions, or speaking too quickly)

We must strive to not allow gossip to rule our speaking!

Getting caught up in the moment going to cause too many words spoken,

That may not be going through your filter!

The one God gave you!

 So use it and ask Him to convict you of this sin often!

Gossip can ruin a marriage, cause someone to lose their job or ministry!

Destroy a friendship, cause discord in a family.

I can remember years ago a lovely older woman reminding me that

What I had just said to her was probably gossip, because I did not know all the facts!

Second and third hand information is dangerous to repeat!

And my opinion is faulty at best!

Only Gods Word is without fault!

This is why we must repent daily of our sins!

We must be teachable!

We must be able to take correction from the Holy spirit!

~Stop and look both ways before you speak~

Bible Verses about Speaking Gossip and Slander

Everyone has experienced the harm of gossip before. Whether the people talking didn't mean direct harm, the result of gossip is always broken trust and hurt feelings. Gossip can be defined as information about the behavior or personal life of other people, often without the full truth revealed or known. God's Word warns us to stay away from people who gossip and to guard our words when we speak about others!

Scripture also uses the word slander which means making a false spoken statement damaging to a person's reputation. Slander can destroy someone's marriage, job, wealth, and family. The tongue has power and we must be careful with how we use our words. The Bible tells us what words we should speak and which we should not. If you are struggling with gossip or know someone who gossips a lot, study these Bible verses and choose to help put a stop to it.

2 Corinthians 12:20

For I am afraid that when I come I may not find you as I want you to be, and you may not find me as you want me to be. I fear that there may be discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, slander, gossip, arrogance and disorder.

Romans 1:28-32

28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
