Keep coming back to this and have wandered do i want to keep a Shepherds journal? Think this is a good idea a Cool Crew Shepherd Journals. BUT....this may be a bit scary not so much for me but to you all who come in and read my thoughts i share, but then it may actually turn out to be a relief on my part. lol

Has been a up and down day. Thinking how my emotions have a way of running wild on me, and how in one area of my life my faith is strong, and then in another its weak. So then i need to apply the part of my life where faith is strong and do same thing where my faith is so weak. Well that sort of got shot right out the window within no time when hubby got mad at me about something over the phone. Can't never seem to do anything right soo back to square one on that thought.

Verse today that i have considered and still considering, i love verses such as this....

Ps.18:13-17

13 The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.
14 Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.
15 Then the channels of waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
16 He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.


Then today is the day that Rosh HaShanah begins for Jews. Already about to end the first watch of the new day, new month in Israel. Here in America it begins at 6pm. Its the beginning of the Fall Feast of Israel. And studying these feast are awesome and understadning how Jesus is the fulfillments of these feast are Awesome. Jews believe this day is the day Adam was placed into the garden, and this is also considered the birthday of the Creation of the World. When it is said.....In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good.

John 1:1-5,14, " In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not...........And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

I can't help but hope these next coming days as the fall feast are passing by this will be it. Jesus will come for his sheep that are ready. More then ready to get out of this world. Each time this time of year this is what i'm constantly thinking of Come Lord Jesus Come! and pray that i have not failed in getting truth out.

Don't think i'm trying to give a sermon here i'm not these are just my thoughts so far for today.

Blessings

Well i just lost it over in another place i've been a member now for over four years. Many were denying the endtimes and not sure what happen something in me snapped and i let them all have it. My 2nd best friend, (1st being Jesus) she is an evangelist speaks on the end times as i do. She just went in after me and came back and said, YES Ohh bubby i'm gonna blow that trumpet with you. Pray i never lose here at Oasis like that though. Maybe i should go delete that post. Hmmmmm....

I've ran my own online minstry for actually over 3 yrs, and in those short years i loved it. But yet it was a huge relief when i shut down. A few days later i joined the crew cool here. Want to be more involved here but honestly i think i'm still trying to find my place. Trying to overcome a lot of things right now. So i hope and pray no one here thinks ill of me for not enter acting no more then i do. I get paicky when getting around a lot of people and don't say much specially in a chatroom. Forums is not as bad i prepare my post when alone and then copy and paste. Works much better for me, but its why i rarely go into chat. But so much do i appreciate and love you all for accepting me into the oasis cool crew though. It means a lot.

Just wanted to say this all it seems to stay on my mind.

Never really know what to say here so never keep my journal up. But want to share this song with eveyone who reads. This may be my 40th time listening to it this morning, its just a calming, peaceful and comforting song.

Be Thou My Vision....

Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art.
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul's Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven's joys, O bright Heaven's Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

This song was written in the 8th century, goes to show God works in us the same as He always has done with His children. God is the same Yesterday, Today and tomorrow, He does not change.

Noo i don't mind you posting in my journal. Thank you for the kind words Skrubby. Looking forward to getting to know ya better also and everyone else.

When starting a bible study chat program, wasn't fully sure I'd do ok with it, but was excited about giving it a shot. I'm used to teaching on prophecy but was stepping a little out of my territory when I go into chat and hold bible study speaking on various subjects. I'm finding those who come in and speak and join in are teaching me rather me teach them. Where I see I haven't started off speaking in a subject as well as it could have been now I can apply that to other future studies and hopefully learn to start off in a more effective way. It also helps me see where I need to better improve several things. Have always found how we each are able to learn off each other. The Lord has us all at different levels of learning. So we each are able to each other grow.

I have truly appreciate everyone that has dropped by and adds to the studies. It truly helps me get a better perspective on the Lord, on others, and on God's Word. I'm very grateful that the Lord has given me a chance to do so here at Oasis.
