Until HE Returns To Cast The Evil One In The Abyss Forever Love Each Other & Be Not Blue for HE has already over come All Death Giving Life!

Greetings Dawlins of ours!!!

We love all of you so so much!
Until Our Dear Lord casts the evil one into the abyss forever...

We HIS obedient little ones will have to diligently defend life...
That of our neighbor's...

Our sister's our brother's whose keeper we are and shall be till the end of time when we all have joyfully completed our journey within HIS Grace and forever more look upon HIS Holy Face.

What ever hovers over you trying to steal HIS joy from you...

The sun of the Son shall shine forever more through anything that makes me or you blue...For when we have HIM & HE has me & you...

There is absolutely not a thing we must do alone.....we need not be strong...

But let HIM who is in you and in me...who longs to free of from all bondage and pain...

HE yearns to take upon HIS own shoulders all that weighs any and all of you, me, and my Puddin Head Precious William...

But HE is a gentleman who will never force HIS will our desire upon us...

We must reach out to HIM ask in trust and actually give our sorrows, fears....our joys and laughter too...

To HIM...

As St Francis says:  Cast your care upon HIM for HE cares for me and you...

So you and we need not fear but remain free indeed in, with & though HIM the only friend who is forever Faithful and never makes mistakes...

 HE knew long before now that this too would come....

And this too shall pass...

And at last...HE will raise us onto HIS Holy Wings of fire and with great love 

HE shall carry us above and upon these clouds of our circumstance...

It is never up to us do do anything but obey and and follow....

We are called to be believers not achievers...

Obedient followers of HIS leadership...

Not the leaders less we shall slip...

Fall and go down into pits laid as traps for us....or even traps and prisons of our own making.

And this is what gives us freedom...

For whatever foils our plans....happens so that HIS commands have the opportunity to trample the enemy again and again Amen!

William's hernia far worse needs surgery...surgical consult scheduled for Wednesday at hospital surgical office where his outside VA oncologist is.

William is believing God, praying for a MIRACULOUS healing of tumor that he not have to undergo the hernia surgery.

I keep saying he must keep Wednesday's appointment since even when God heals...one must go to the doctor to confirm the MIRACLE or risk losing the MIRACLE.

I am still washing everything by hand and packing our van with most all of our belongings....except for our mattress so that if the evil one continues to illegally enter there will be nothing of value for them to steal.

More importantly no papers with personal information whether medical, social Security....whatever.

Preparing to embrace tent camping still again on November 30, 2013....Living again in HIS Parks for a few weeks will be a most welcomed gift from above....

For the arrogant who will never have wives nor husbands of their own do not go camping!
Too much work to them since Momma is not there to clean up their diapers when they throw temper tantrums!

They stay in the Hilton & the Marriott where they have maid servants to abuse and treat with rudeness because they pay them large excessive tips.

Have you ever noticed the very financially rich and wealthy grown adults throw the biggest tantrums and are very immature & the rudest of all

Each of you....each of you are so so precious....precious... precious!

Whether you are among the few here in the United States who have chosen to receive our hearts within yours...or if you are among  the many in different parts of India, Europe, Russia, Africa...or upon islands and everywhere...around this earth who have loved us for years over the Internet !!

Love & Blessings to you!

Lets never get discouraged but instead encourage one another...our sisters and brothers...

Let us never compete with our friend, sister or brother...

But instead seek to assist our friend along his our her journey...

Making our own journeys a shared journey...

For it is not about getting to a finish line first...

But making certain that we go through the narrow gates with care together that not one trips without being lifted up and carried upon our shoulders...

For we are to be imitators of HIM Jesus Christ.

We are not to be seeking to be the first to finish...but to bring with us many souls along with us who also cross the finish line safely & securely through the narrow gate to salvation in heaven forever together forever.

Let not one be lost....imitate HIM HE already paid the cost that you and I need not be the best...but the last to cross the finish line after making certain that each one whom HE has given us...placed on our path needy of friendship, love, compassion or any good physical or spiritual thing...

Sing Sing Sing....New songs of joy & thanksgiving and all living will therefore be full filling our hearts and HIS plans for all to eternity.

Amen Amen Amen....dear friends!

Every Day We Each Have A Part To Play To Defend Life Itself

It is impossible for anyone to go out into the world of their normal routine...whether they are driving to their place of employment with the radio on...

Even in their neighborhood grocery supermarket where we live such store is called Bohnings...

Without hearing at least one person say something to degrade one life lower than another.

I can even when I was pregnant for my one and only child of my womb...

Abortion was the newest hot topic and they were showing photos of fetuses in wombs saying: "Is it no longer just a blob of tissue when?"

My mother was getting dressed for her day at employment position...sales-woman in Fine China & Crystal at "Adlers Jewelers" in Lakeside Shopping Center in Metairie Louisiana...as she said after seeing the pictures and hearing this question:  "Oh they should have had this available a long time ago!"

"Why Mom?"

"Well then we wouldn't have so many freaks in the world!"

My entire life but particularly during my childhood they always said:  "YOU SHOULDN'T EVER BEEN BORN!"  or "YOU'LL NEVER BE NOTIN BUT A BURDEN TO ANYONE AS LONG AS YOU LIVE"...so I at that time said to my Momma:   "You mean like me, Mom?"   "Exactly Stephanie like you!"  she said as she was looking at the television with a gloating smile and laughing.

She came running after me to say "I didn't men that Stephanie...but the truth is:  "Out of the fullness of the heart a mouth speaks" and it is impossible for a heart to pretend to feel or a mind to pretend to think differently tan they do feel or think...so what you hear first is always the truest impression of anyone.

And no matter how they cover up or try to change what I really mean:....  They will always simply twist even deeper the truth they want to set them free...

But the truth does two things at once:    Sets free the pure in heart who never lie, mislead or falsify....and at the same time TRUTH will always bind up bound tight anyone who cheats, misleads or falsify's...Truth exposes all as it divide the righteous from the wicked who think they can get away with their sin and crime...that they are more slick than the ones who get caught...

That they will not make such foolish stupid mistakes as those who are behind bars.

When we witness anything that goes against the grain of God's Holy Commandments...when we witness anyone abuse another but do nothing about...if we do not at least try to assist an angry violent mother we know with her child for the child's sake...or

If we do not know them...report what we witness to police or child protection authorities...if we are pretending we did not see anything then we are joining them in their sin.

When we hear folks on the radio talk shows degrading anyone at all...we can take the time to write a letter to the Station Editor...and even to the FCC if writing the Television or Radio Station does not bring about the correction we seek.

But sometimes instead of just requiring monitoring of what goes on the air waves...

Praying for the foul mouthed one leading others astray...then writing a prayerful letter while to that very person with the vindictive spirit...could have an affect in their hearts.

We are our own worse enemy when we turn our head and remain silent...

When we choose to open our mouths in FAITH...God's power to transform hearts is released...and Life given birth to the dead...and Ezekiel's grave yard be no longer entombed.

You really cany can-can be an Esther or a Jacob too...and you will therefore never be blue!

Expect Your MIRACLE Today & Every Day or You Might...

Our words are creating at all times....but what?

We can live with MIRACLES chasing us down at all downs
Refusing to accept less than his best...what....
 stone cold hearted doctors say because their own choices have made their lives miserable by neglecting their families and later flirting with nurses...

And filling their little time off the clock with things that feed not the soul...
Their FAITH waned from such tired weary life styles and are jealous of those willing to leave all behind for that which lies beyond that which is the natural accepted life.

Only those who expect MIRACLES in every part of every day....live lives filled with MIRACLES and far more graces & Blessings than the average person alive on earth.

We receive what we we expect.

If you or I wake up anticipating bad news...

Guess what your phone will ring all day with problems.

For everyone who knows that Johnny or Jane expects days filled with problems....

Others assume that Johnny & Jane are exactly who they are to call & visit with every single dellima that not only they personally encounter...

But recommend Johnny & Jane to each person they meet and greet along every single street whether in Ponchatoula Louisiana...

Or on the coast of Madagascar, Nigeria, Malawi, Egypt, India or Yugoslavia.

Earth geography never limits God's laws of deliverance, blessing or prosperity.

Nor is God ever limited by our circumstances.

We can always accept less than God's best and settle for what others are content with....

Or we can reach out for HIS greater gifts.

Jesus said:  "Far greater things than these you shall do...

For I go to my Father at HIS right hand and anything I ask is mine anything you ask in my Name My Father & I shall do for you & through you!"

Just as every life ever conceived within every woman's womb deserves to be nourished and born into the world to love & be loved...

We who are going day by day the same old same old way...
Can choose to reach out for so much more than what they have...

They can lay down and walk away from this life and choose HIS best that defies what others choose to do.

We all can choose God's healing and peace and seek not first MIRACLES...but seek the Holy Face of God Himself our creator...
To HIM nothing is impossible but all dreams we have that are life giving HE embraces...
And we can be recipient of MIRACLES and even the vessel through which HE creates MIRACLES...

For we who are in HIM are called to emulate HIM.

HE who is in me & you and has over come all things....disease, and death itself...
And when we remain close to HIM in the sacraments....both penance keeping our conscience clean....
And frequently eating HIS Eucharist...sustenance for every point of our journey...

We can all lay hands on the sick and expect them to recover when we live!
Amen Amen Amen and Alleluia!

Even Some Catholics are Confused About Pro-Life / Pro-Choice ...Abortion.

I was wearing  a button pinned to my bright pink jacket that reads: PRAY FOR ABORTION TO END!"

 At a Graduation lunch in a New Orleans Catholic Parish the Sunday following Father's Day 2013...I was astounded the responses I received & conversation it spawned.

I expect this kind of confrontation if & wear it to the grocery store but not to Catholic Holy Mass & to a party of Catholic Families at a Catholic Church.

I was told that "Even if I personally would not abort my child, I don't have the right nor do you have right to suggest to others what they should do!"

Well is preaching & teaching the Holy Gospel suggesting to folks a better way to live???

And so this statement contradicts the entire life of a christian for we are called to always live by the Holt Scriptures that say:  "Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!"

Let HIS life, HIS joy, HIS mercy which endures forever never cease from parting from our lips!

We are to be imitators of God who calls each by name and who speaks good things into being at all times....

We are to like God embracing all that befalls us with great FAITH...speaking hope to the hopeless and life into the dead!

I pray you see this contradiction that we all plainly see and hear all over where ever we go...

Maybe you never thought of in this perspective...now is the time...to choose on purpose which group you will be among...

You will be herded with the sheep into heaven or with the goats into the eternal flames.

The choice is yours for the silent ones who are not hot or called will be lost to the eternal fiery flames of HELL!

We All Can Receive MIRACLES and Be Vessels Through Which God Grants MIRACLES to Others

Though we must not be afraid of what others will say or think,

Nor can we be controlled by other's opinions are talk of us.

We who desire to be chases down by both blessings and MIRACLES that never cease but only keep multiplying with our joyful smiles and laughter in spite of devils who seek and track us...

We must keep on keeping on singing regardless who is murmuring behind our backs.

As we heard in last Sunday's Gospel the Lord was not concerned of who what about who HE is...

And so shall we must be continuing to bless others with our smiles and songs...there will always be someone like our former next door neighbor Veronica on Alvin Callender Street when we with God were building our home...

She came outside yelling one day not able to understand how not even hers & her nephews hateful actions against us could not kill our spirits.

She came outside as I was singing new songs through joyful tears...tears that our neighbors were trying to stifle the rebuilding of our home.

What we had completed the day before our neighbors had punched holes into in the night...

But I sang new songs to the God above knowing HE who watches through the night from HIS throne up above not only saw the crimes against us in the night but had the power to restore not only that which the angry jealous locusts had stolen...

They who were filled with jealousy, anger and hate and have never been loved nor have loved themselves....

No different than the Ponchatoula local native neighbors who say out of one side of their mouth that they are going to build Ponchatoula into a thriving economic marketing business center, yet they tie up themselves in bondage that they cannot grow...

By shunning newcomers who choose to make Ponchatoula home!

No town or city will ever grow & prosper past the point they are today without welcoming new citizens not only physically into their neighborhoods, and into the community and church families.

Regardless how many families come and are shunned they will eventually move on in the same numbers or even more.

For every family and community has both sincere and insincere folks whom they call their own.

Those whose hearts are pure but were born within a thorny city among hateful tit-tat chatter boxes who love not...

Eventually these too will choose to move onto a better place where they will not be embarrassed by their previous associations whether blood or geographic.

No they will follow the lead of those who come full of life seeking to bless an entire community when they first arrived...but refuse to live an entire life time among grumblers and wishy -washy complainers.

As Joyce Meyer has taught over the years....one can choose to complain and remain and go around and around a same old mountain of a pill.

Or you & I and each of us can reach out and beyond our circumstances for another new dream...when others fight to long and hard resisting thy kindness and blessing...

As Jesus said:  "Shake of their dust and move on..."

Such cities will never grow but as Sodom & Gomorrah will be your town or city who shuns the hearts who of those who enter bearing kindness and generosity of their grateful loving hearts...

Such a town or city will never grow but die  from their own choices....their own deception...

The fruit never falls far from the tree and the selfish resentful hearts wither and never blossom but rather their self-righteousness they fatten and fluff and spread as an eagle spreads its wings...

Then they go around time gloating convincing themselves and each other that they together did a good thing.

A Warning To Everyone For When You Open New Online Accounts....Humorous Consequences That Can Make For More Dangerous Circumstances If Not Caught or Corrected...

Anyone who has known my husband William and I for any length of time know that for my first 49 years of iife that I had physical tunnel vision for real!!   Yes REALLY!

That I only saw a small portion of any one's faces at a time, and that I was raised as a sighted child because my parents would not acknowledge my challenges for they were ashamed of "who or what I was."

And that on the Feast of the Holy Family 2009 I received a Eucharistic MIRACLE in my eyes and have enjoyed given thanks & praise for nearly three and a half years of landscapes and full length drapes!

So I have done some amazing things for someone who literally at times could not see what was under her ow nose!

I graduated from Grace King High School without ever having read much with understanding.

To satisfy my mother I sat on my bed for hours just every once in a while turning a page....

But since what was printed in those books made no sense to me and I could not see...

That time was not wasted... for in my heart I was not in a chair at a desk nor was I lounged on my bed reading...

I was conversing with my Lord my God and your God...

I would ask HIM to fill my heart and mind with whatever I needed to know...to stay safe at home, school or on the school bus...

Walking down hills or through my neighborhood.

A friend who I had not been in touch with for quite some time sent me an invite to open a "  LinkedIN " account.

Happy to hear from her I did just that thinking I could take my time that there would be no hurry to build a resume for myself and at a future date possibly this could help me grow a licensed business with  income doing what I enjoy the most...free-motion embroidery, crochet and writing.

But what happened was as I opened this "Linked IN " account, I was interrupted.

And as always, I embraced my interruption... as you do too... 

Took care of whatever it was my husband need that time....

I do my share of asking him questions that too for him are not at the best timing...

It happens in all marriages in all kinds of friendships...

There is no fault placing here...  No anger or frustration but rather jovial laughter and entertainment...

Life is much easier when one can laugh at and with themselves...

But what happened since I did not stay with the program as I first began opening this Linked IN account was it automatically sent invitations to everyone who I ever wrote an email to from the first date I opened this email address.   And not only to these who I possibly only wrote once ever, some were business inquires that I never thought about again in over 5 years.

Other auto invitations went to folks who I never wrote but their email address was attached to one of those cutesy poems with pictures many just keep forwarding and forwarding over and over...certainly none of these I ever thought would one day show up as "CONNECTIONS"

And since I at times post to my blogs not signed into blogger but from my email as I am doing now...

Linked IN posted connection requests to my blogs for about a 5th time last night.

So instead of going into Blogger and removing those comical posts  "MrsStephanie............invites you to CONNECT"  from my blogs...

I am leaving Linked IN right there...

Instead I will post this on all of them...

And make a game of it...

But it could have serious consequence when an unsent invite is accepted by someone who is worse than unpleasant.

I HAVE CUT OF several CONNECTIONS....some without any explanation.

Check your email contact list for many email systems save all information as your potential contacts even though you do not routinely write email to them nor they to you.

And you can possibly also have your account hacked into through these odd seemingly insignificant addresses that seem not worth even giving time to DELETE!

But do it!  DELETE DELETE!

And when you open new accounts do not let systems access your contact lists, manually type the ones you want to communicate with the new account and you will have fewer headaches of             SPAM JAMS...

And you will not have to check your new account more often than you would have liked to to make certain you have no spying new connections...that maybe unsafe for you...

As happened to me!

But the Lord will always keep us free indeed with out needs HE cannot nor will not meet...

And when the devil does raise his head....

Whether a cyber spyer...a marriage divider...or simply folks who some how did not learn or remember from Kindergarten how to introduce themselves and ask others their names....

I guess till Jesus comes back there will be those who try to force themselves upon others instead..

When anyone is rude, crude, or  speaks with forked tongue...

Remember our Lord said to cut off the hand that causes us to sin...

Don't you wish that it was as easy to get rid of all of these....as pushing or clicking a DELETE BUTTON!
