  • Loss

    My grandmother passed away about thirty minutes ago. She’s in Heaven now! Rejoicing; singing and dancing with the angels!

    I’m so glad that I got to see her a few times last week, or I would be feeling guilty right now.

    I do feel bad because I hadn’t seen her in a long while, but I know that she forgave me. She had to have. She was so happy to see me! I love her, I really do. And the loss of her will be greatly felt.

    She was a lovely woman.

    I miss her already. I missed her for years before - when she didn’t know who I was anymore.

    If you read this, pray. Pray for my family. They need peace.

  • Update # 128391732851624786512.8

    I got the job at Target. I start Thursday. Money, insurance, etc - great benefits! Money means tithing! I don't tithe my husbands money because he works for it, AND because he is not convicted about tithing (yet! ).  Because I do not have a home church, I believe I will be tithing to the Burn and Joyce Meyer alternately for the time being.

    I really excited about having a job again. I hated being unemployed!

    Insurance means I can go back to the doctor to start back on my medicine for my PCOS. WOOT! I'm glad for that. Answered prayer, for sure!

    They also offer a store discount and stock buying. Weeeeeeeeee!

    Thank you, Jesus!

  • Prayer request.

    My grandmother is in the hospital. Three weeks ago, she found out that she had colon cancer. They did surgery two Thursdays ago. At first, her recovery went well. And then, on Friday her fever spiked. She has infection in her abdomen and she is retaining fluid in her lungs. She felt better today when I went to see her, but the doctors do not hold a lot of hope that she will make it through this. I do not want to make this seem really bad because she was feeling better today when I left the hospital, but neither do I want to make it seem trivial. My grandmother needs prayer. She needs the supernatural healing of our Father.

    Please, please pray. Pray not only for her healing, if that is His will, but also to make sure that she knows Jesus before she goes - whether that is now, or 50 years from now. I'm hoping for a few more years so that we can get reacquainted with one another. I have not seen her in a long time because she could not remember me. This is my daddy's mom.

    Thank you for reading this and thank you for praying.

    May all glory, honor, and praise be to God!

  • Job and love.

    I had an interview at Target Distribution Center today. I think it went well. I’m expecting a call on Wednesday. Thank you to all for your continued prayers and support. Thanks be to my Lord Jesus who loves me and wants the best for me! All glory and honor and praise! My savior, redeemer, provider!

    Why is it that so many “Christians” are unable to love as we are called to do? Just pushing your belief on someone DOES NOT help them. Love them and allow His Holy Spirit to move in their lives. He is MORE THAN ABLE to care for His children. “Love thy neighbor as thyself.”  What in the world do you think this means? Many of us (Christians) need to examine our hearts to see what lies within it. God is Love. And as we strive to be like Him, we must also strive to be Love. It is our duty AND it is our HONOR. I beg of you, brothers and sisters, let us all love our God (above all) and love our neighbors!

    Father, please forgive our obsession with our own agendas. Let our only desire be to chase after You! I surrender to You, Abba! Help me stay focused as I seek Your face. Let it be. Amen.

  • Rambling is FUN!

    I have a headache. Again. Ouch.

    Israel. Home to Jerusalem, Nazareth, Mt Carmel, and that’s not all! :P God’s chosen people. I’ve been devouring information about the country (state), climate, people, language, everything! I think I’m going to try to crash course some Hebrew. I really think that would be awesome. I know - I’m one of “those” people.

    Even in July it won’t be *that* hot. From what I’ve read so far, the average temperature during that time is like 85 degrees or so. Ya know…I have to get a tan before we go, or I’ll roast if we stay outside much (which I imagine we will). Also, I’m setting a goal for myself: I’d like to lose about fifty pounds before we go. I don’t want to have to worry about my health when I go!

    I’ve got to get my plans to obtain funding in order. I’m thinking about some bake sales, maybe a raffle or something. Maybe my Abba will give me some more ideas. He will provide a way; that’s all I know.

    I’m still looking for a job. I’ve applied to a few places. I wish that one for them would *please* call and give me a job. I hate being out of work! And satan tried to use that to create doubt in me too. Whatever. I’m anxious for when the right job comes along.

    God is sending an army of the young to take His Word to all nations! I’m so honored to get to be a part of it. I found this prophecy on a website and I can’t help but think that this man may be talking about the Burn!

    "On the Doorstep of the
    Greatest Move of God Ever!

    By: Chris Chandler

    In July of 1998, God woke me up in the middle of the night and I prophesied this…

    An unprecedented revival is going to break out. It is going to spread like wildfire across the land, but it is going to be led by the Holy Ghost. It will not only be the people who believe in the Spirit who are going to be filled, but it will also be the common people.

    The world is on the verge of the greatest outpouring of God’s Spirit ever! (Acts 2:17) We are on the edge of the greatest harvest of souls in history. This harvest comes at the end of the age (Matt. 13:39).

    Amazing New Thing

    God said this is an unprecedented revival! Unprecedented means that it has never happened before! This is bigger than our minds can even grasp!

    Look at the nations and watch– and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told
    (Hab. 1:5).

    We will literally look at the nations and be utterly amazed. Billions of people are going to come to Jesus in this awesome harvest! God gave me a dream where I saw people as far as the eye could see, and it was an awesome sight. When I woke up I was utterly amazed!

    Mighty signs, wonders, and miracles are going to draw in the lost. Whole nations will be saved!

    Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland (Isaiah 43:18-19).

    Forget all of the former revivals! Lose all of your preconceived ideas of what revival is! As a matter of fact, this is something so HUGE that the word “revival” does not describe it! God describes it as a new thing . It is so unprecedented that the only word to describe it is thing ! There is no reference point with which we can compare it!

    A Wildfire Will Blaze Across the Land!

    The most powerful move of God that has ever been or will ever be is coming! The Fire of God that is going to blaze across this nation and all over the world is going to appear almost out of control, but it is going to be totally led by the Holy Ghost (not by any man).

    Before them fire devours, behind them a flame blazes… Joel 2:3

    God is raising up an army in these last days that will spread the fire of God everywhere they go! Join God’s Army! Start basic training! God showed us that there are three basics in His Army: Word, Worship, and Spirit. We are to weld these together with prayer. This training will strengthen and enable us to do the things that Jesus did and even greater!

    Greater Things Than Even What Jesus Did?

    Yes! Jesus said it first, not me!

    Believe Me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves.

    I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in Me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in My Name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.

    You may ask Me for anything in My Name, and I will do it (John 14:11-14).

    All it will take is faith in Jesus. We want to do what Jesus did, and greater, so that Jesus can bring glory to the Father!

    LET GOD LIGHT YOUR FIRE!"

    Notice the references to fire/burning! I won’t swear this is about the Burn, but it caused a catch in my spirit. I nearly started weeping.

  • Wee!

    I can't believe I'm up this late again tonight.  I need sleep. My doctor diagnosed me with insomnia, and I just feel like I can't turn off the "switch" sometimes.  My brain refuses to stop.

    I've been reading a lot lately about spiritual warfare/ demon possession/ intercessory prayer/ deliverance ministries.  How to identify it; how to deal with it.  I know those are different subjects, but they all tie together in my thought process.  I'm weird, I know!

    Many people have asked me if I subscribe to the belief that people can become possessed by demons.  To that, my answer is yes - the Bible has examples of such occurrences.  However, the next few questions are usually: do you believe that true Christians" can become possessed? Do we, the Christians of today, have enough faith to cast out the demons that manifest themselves?  Is it our duty to exercise our authority through Christ over these demons?  I don't really have all the answers and I continue to seek His face during this time of research and learning.  My great quest for knowledge.

    I've really been convicted lately of not always praying/petitioning my Daddy.  I pray, but not for those things I know He has commanded me to pray over.  Disobedience can kick your butt.  Please excuse the strong language there, if it offends you.  I have once again lain down claim to my life and my prayers.  I seek only to please and obey Him. I will intercede when instructed. I will obey.

    Deliverance ministries - at least the ones I read about - seem kind of fake to me.  My spirit did not bear witness with what I found.  Odd.

    I'm looking for a church home.  I have to face it - I'm here now, house is bought 0 there is no going back. heh.  Besides, theGathering (the building, I mean) no longer exists.  Time to move on! :)  Chandler is my home again and I need to get used to it!  I love this area. I wouldn't have agreed to buy the house if I didn't.  I love me some trees!!!!!

    I'm excited for the next Burn near me.  It will be my first in this area. I'm nervous about it a little, but it is an excited anxiety.  In other words, it is a good feeling!  The Burn has etched itself upon my heart.  Oh, how I love to see my King worshiped and adored!

    I keep praying for my family.  I know that they believe in God - most of them.  There is just so much more than believing in His existence.  I have so much fun with this, and I want that for them!  I don't know if they are saved - thankfully I do not have God's job and do not have to make that call. :)

    There's more in me, but it isn't time for it to come out yet.

    I love each of you. Truly.

    I love You, Abba.  Thank You.

    For everything.

    Here I am - LORD - use me!  Send me!

    Your loving, somewhat weird and forever grateful daughter,
    Sara

  • Church

    I need a church home (building) to meet with other Jesus Hippies/Freaks.  A church where its members are actually following Christ.

    God, please lead me.

    Amen.

  • Time

    flies.   Really fast.  I have more to say, but alas -- no words to say it with.

    I pray that everyone is having a great time in their lives and that are as blessed by Abba as I am.

    I'm looking for a job.  Prayers would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    I love you all!!!!

About Me

  • I'm an on-fire charismatic follower of Jesus Christ. I'm 29. Married to Zeppelin. I go against the flow if I think its necessary. I love my Abba. I like the "emerging church." I think that it's about time we ask why. Be the hands and feet of Jesus, someone needs us to be...
