Great day!

Well we had our assembly here at the house today. Scott had a great word on "sanctification". Maybe he will type it up and post it. We all had something to share and testify of. We did miss Teryl and Diane as they are still out of the country. After we worshiped and shared the Word we ate a great communion feast. I cooked a craw fish and corn soup. YUM! The kids had seconds. Guess it was a favorite. Now we are outside cleaning up the yard. Love these times as a family....! :) Oh and people keep posting to my blog that are anonymous. I said in a previous blog that unless you can identify yourself it will not be posted. If I don't know you then how can you say things about me if you don't know me. Therefore, I won't post those either. Thank you for your interest though. :) God bless you all...!

I still think you're crazy.

Well I said I wouldn't post a comment that was sent anonymously, but this is one comment I agree with. I am "crazy"....crazy for Truth, crazy for Jesus and crazy for the people called by HIS Name. So yes indeed I am one crazy person. Thank for you for the complement. God bless you!

Ok... I hear you. Sorry I have to do this anonymously... I don't have a blog and don't plan on starting one.

If you're really crazy for truth I challenge you to read this book: Suprised by Truth... by Patrick Madrid. It seems you're missing a big peice of truth in your faith.

Hello Heather! My name is Kellie and it is nice to meet you. Thank you for your comment. You say I need to read 'Surprised by truth' to find a "missing" piece in my faith? Why would I read a book by a man I don't know when I can read the BIBLE which speaks of the TRUTH and the person of Truth who I know with all my heart. I choose to listen to Him that lived it and in me,then to listen to a man's opinion on Truth. I am trying to break free from the traditions of men and follow the Holy Spirit. My faith is strengthened every day as I read my Bible, pray, and fellowship with His children. Not to mention the trials that come which test my faith. As I allow the perfect work and change to take place in my heart from those trials my faith is strengthened. Also, for someone who doesn't have a blog or want one you seem to be greatly interested in mine. I enjoy my blog to share with friends and family. Thank you for taking to time to read it. I hope you have checked out my links as well. There is so much Truth from a Biblical perspective that there is no need to read anything else. :)

I didn't expect any different answer from you... typical.

Meaning? Do you know me Heather, to expect me to answer a certain way? If so, please put your last name so I can put a face with a name. I am not mad. I am who I am and won't change for no one but the Holy Ghost. My statements are from experience not someone's opinions. No one can take away what the Lord did in me personally. I love to testify of Him and what He is doing in my home. When He opens His Wor dto me and gives me revelation I want to shout it from the roof tops. Thank you for the comments though. Even if they seem like you are being ugly. I am thankful for the fact I am persecuted for the sake of Christ. I am so BLESSED!!! Have a great day and I pray God's mercies on your life.

no, no... none of that. there is no ugliness intended nor persecution of your faith... You mentioned many people have put anonymous messages on your board... i haven't visited that often, so don't confuse me with others...
believe me, i am Christian too. A friend told me about this blog- honestly I don't know you. I can see you love Christ a lot and you live totally for him. that's great. I don't know how to say what is on my heart... there is a depth and richness you are missing. I don't need to know you to know that... i can tell from your post. Check out suprised by truth... it's a great book of testimonies... not some alter biblical revelation- but a good eye opener.

Ok, well, you are blessed, as am I. I'll sign off for now. -Heather

Thank you for your comment. I must disagree with you though. You can't possibly read from my statments and think I am missing a depth and richness in my life. If you knew me and my testimony you would say differently. If you want to send me your email I would be glad to send it to you. My email is kalford3@cox.net. I have more depth and richness to my spirit than ever before. It grows daily as I seek the Lord and commune with Him. He reveals Himself to me more and more. Not to mention the rich conversations I have with His Body (the Church - ekklesia, called out one's) about the Word and what God is saying. Do I have it all, NO....but I go on to perfection daily. That is what Paul said to do. The Word is my standard and forever will be. It, along with the Holy Spirit teaches me, guides me and corrects me. I don't agree with the teachings of religion. The only teachings I want to sit under are those that come from the Word where the words of life are spoken. Thank you for the suggestion. Check out the link to www.housechurchesusa.com. Take care and God bless.
