Obedience is difficult at any age.     Whether you are in the ‘terrible three’s’ or as old as me.   Obedience is so important, but not the easiest to embrace.

When I was small my Mother would say,  ‘Paula,  you should not say such things’!    Well, as old as I am, I still say such things!    It is who I am.  It is the truth!   I guess my friends, my husband and children, all know I speak the ‘truth’!    Even when it Hurts!!   It has always been who I am from a very young age.    I would say, I would rather have people say, ask Paula she’ll tell you the truth!   She doesn’t lie!!    Well, I have spent my life professing ‘truth’!   Some, don’t care for me, that’s fine;  but,  It is the only thing that matters!

Ananias, in the writing, ‘Exulted’, doubts what the Lord asked!   He questioned the LORD!   Well, sometimes we all have to be an Ananias.   Not intentionally perhaps, but humanly.    For there is no getting around being human.    It is!!   So with that in mind, I say we have all questioned the MASTER.    It hurts to say so, but it is reality.   I know I have.

When it was imposed upon my heart to do this, I was certain He meant someone else!   So certain was I, that I did not obey!    I kept praying!   It kept returning to me, that I was to do it.    To the point where it appeared in my dreams.    So, I finally went to the ‘Blessed Virgin Mary’.    I had friends praying for me.    I ‘knew’ the LORD had the wrong girl!    Wrong!    He had His designs on me, and never gave up on me.   I tell you this: The LORD never gives up on us.   If anything it is we who give up on the LORD.    We walk away, we quit praying, some even quit believing!   He is always there!   Always!

Finally, after I spoke to Our Blessed Mother, she enlightened me.   She guided me!    So here I am.    I share this with you because Our LORD desires it!

It is He who sees who I am and finds a quality, or gift that I am not aware of, and would never presume to have.   For you see, the ‘evil one’ is constantly battling the presence of Christ within us.    That is SATANS job!    Ugly as it is,  it is the truth!    Evil lurks and lurks everywhere; there are no exceptions.

Recognizing  evil is only done through the eyes of Jesus Christ!   His spirit is the only thing that matters.    WE NEED HIM!    He is all we need.   If we have him then we have everything.

When Jesus was here, He spoke in parables.   He opens the hearts and minds of those who come to Him, when they want him.

So, if you believe something I wrote is not to your liking, or is wrong, it is for you to pray about.    For I tell you certainly, I have only ONE to answer to, and that is JESUS CHRIST!

Everything written in this blog is under the directions of the HOLY SPIRIT!   If it does not meet your expectations, then the LORD will enlighten your understanding when you pray about it.    For it is HE who has guided me.   It is He who I answer to.

Book of Revelations Chapter 22 verses 16-21 Jesus is Speaking:

16)   “It is I, Jesus, who have sent my angel to give you this testimony about the churches.   I am the Root and Offspring of David, The Morning Star shining bright.”   17)The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come!”   Let him who hears, answer, “Come!”  Let him who is thirsty come forward; let all who desire it accept the gift of life-giving water.   18) I myself give witness to all who hear the prophetic words of this book.   If anyone adds to these words,  God will visit him with all the plagues described herein.!   19)   If anyone takes from the words of this prophetic book God will take away his share in the tree of life and the holy city described here.!   20)   The ONE who gives this testimony says, “Yes, I am coming soon!”  Amen!   Come, Lord Jesus !   21) The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you all.   Amen!”
