GATE KEEPER



THE IRISES ARE BEGINNING TO BLOOM.  Makes for a happy moment in time to see this.  I look forward to the blooms each SPRING.  Splashes of color adds beauty to the scenery.  This simple pleasure adds volumes to the world.  There is so much ugliness promoted and focused on in the media that I have to chose to not watch or read about it.  Spending more time looking at flowers, plants and landscaping is a healthy must.

Through television programming, the world willingly comes into our homes with the messages that others want to invade our peace with.  Chaos.  There's an agenda promoted by those that own the media facilities to dethrone a Holy God and His healthy ways.  They want to rule the world by polluting the minds of people so they live like animals.  

The latest I have noticed are the words spoken in the television series where just about every other word is vulgar beginning with a F and G D.  As if this somehow expresses a more in-depth meaning to what they say.  Will I have to detox myself from all of this as well as what I eat? Probably with a capital P.  

As for the internet, there are images that give messages that are difficult to ignore while surfing on the computer.  There they are.  Go away.  I must be a gate keeper to what goes in the eye gate. A protector against inappropriate images polluting my mind.  I am a full time HOMEMAKER that has to also be a gate keeper.  That STUFF mustn't enter the property, but if I turn the tele on and it is in the programming then I failed to keep it out.  It is handled differently when using the computer.  Eliminating watching movies and spending time on the computer can be done. Silencing radio and television waves can be done.  Completely repenting and going a different way is doable.    

Today, Hubby has a medical appointment that he is dreading.  Each time there's one of these, he gets uptight and dreads going.  We need to know how he is is doing concerning Non-Hodgkins lymphoma.  It was like getting hit in the gut to be told he had this.  

At that time, I was completely convicted that we had to do something.  Changing what and how we ate was necessary plus prayer.  We knew we had to do things differently.  Downsizing and leaning toward a less stressful LIFE.  We decided to move to the COTTAGE, but getting there is really challenging as we have to downsize, remodel and clean up our act.  The downsizing is taking lots of time to do.  This is a type of stress that we probably don't need, but stress is there anyways.  Life has stress, doesn't it?  Having to trust the Lord to alleviate the stress.

Working in the CARRIAGE HOUSE this morning, then cleaning up to go to his medical appointment.  Afterwards, not sure what mental state we will be in so I can't say what we'll be doing as of yet.  Maybe planting Day Lilies and Lily of the Valley plants.  I need to get the Geraniums out of the house and placed on the porch again as freezing weather has past for now.

A long, warm shower this evening will be just what the doctor ordered.

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
