The gardens are producing amazing crops this year and the rainfall has been abundant. As the debate continues as to whether 5775 or 5776 is the year of Shemitah, my advice would be for those who are undecided or think there is another year before the land rests, to still not waste a thing this year! Even the unbelieving Pharaoh of Egypt was wise enough to store the abundance . . .
As these end of days continue to unfold, I read of many who are counting on a second Exodus and I hope they are prepared for what happens. Of course, as I plan to stay put and prepare for what I understand to be the days of Noah, I continue to seek greater understanding, and hope I'm prepared for what happens. I know I've made this statement before, but I believe; we are very soon going to see the line in the sand become a chasm. Once the line becomes a chasm, even spiritually or figuratively; there will be chaos and very few that manage to make it from one side to the other.
Many of us who are sounding the warning, are probably receiving the same responses, even though much of the unbelieving world feels something is coming . . . With what is going on in Israel, our own borders broken down, the world economy crumbling, the cattle dying, and America's serious drought conditions in the SW, with wildfires in the NW. Not to mention the plagues and pestilences that are antibiotic resistant, looming on the horizon, and the food supply has been genetically altered. We, as a nation, are definitely facing judgment, as well as the time of terrible tribulation coming upon the whole world.
The point I would stress here, is to realize, we are NOT going to awaken to the alarm coming on with the News announcing, "Judgment Has Come" or "The Tribulation Begins Today." We are told to not fear what man can do to us, and we know much of humanity is just thriving on evil, but it is time to get serious about our fear and reverence of YHWH. Judgment is coming. Not only has unbelieving America celebrated sin, but religious America has wilfully disobeyed the Word of the Living G-d.

Cooper Harris
The number of headlines seem to be on the increase in reporting the deaths of children at the hands of their parents, or while in the care of their parents. Cooper Harris is the toddler who recently died in his father's vehicle. This case has taken some bizarre twists and turns, to the point, it is difficult to imagine Cooper's death to be an accident. I keep telling myself, as I follow the case, in America we are presumed innocent until proven guilty. The media sway is easy to follow.
I think of the case of Caylee Anthony a few years ago, and Lacy Peterson several years ago. I don't agree with either outcome of those cases, so perhaps my perspective of this case will differ from the outcome, as well. The one statement that continues to haunt my thoughts may be a misquote, maybe not. When the father, Justin Harris, was making his statement about researching hot car deaths online, he was searching to see how hot it needed to be . . . If those are his exact words, I find that troubling.
The mother's reaction is an enigma as well. Perhaps she's in shock, but mothers get protective and angry over much less than a child's death! Mothers will get angry over diapers unchanged, faces not washed, all sorts of trivial matters, by comparison. Whether it's proven an accident or not, Cooper isn't my child and I'm mad at his dad! I understand people can be distracted on occasion, but this isn't like he ran into the store thinking he'd only be a minute and got held up in line. Since the mom worked from home, why take the child to daycare in the first place? I was shocked at the mother's response when she went to pick the child up that afternoon . . .
I can't imagine parents conspiring to kill their child, but then I can't imagine all those online searches and doing nothing to take precaution, if the fear was that great. A simple dog leash hooked to the underside of the car seat and the loop around the driver's door handle.

Equality?
Having grown up with a very convoluted definition of FAIR and EQUAL, I recognize the cognitive dissonance in this sexual equality agenda. In reading the headlines, I shake my head or . . . (smh) as it is in social media, and ask myself, is anyone having procreative, responsible, heterosexual sex any more?
If a person's sex life is their own personal business, and I agree that it should be, why are there so many headlines about the subject? I've been celibate for years, and I'm not saying everyone should be, but sexuality should be a private matter, and all sexual activity is clearly a choice. I'm not saying gays should be bullied, but their sexuality doesn't need to be paraded down main street, either. I think everyone's sex life needs to stay in the bedroom.
Before I got married and before I became a believer, I was a fornicator. I'm not proud of that fact, and I certainly don't need a parade in celebration of my sin of choice. As many of the headlines have been sexual in nature this past month, I smile remembering one of Miss Lillian Carter's quotes, which I quote to myself frequently.
She once remarked "When I look at all my children sometimes I say to myself, Lillian, you should have stayed a virgin."
I love my kids, but I do wish I'd managed my sexuality differently in my younger years, and in differently, I mean Biblically.
My heart goes out to all those who love their children, but those children have made the choice to act out on anti-Biblical sexual urges. I guess since my fornication was heterosexual, I don't get any special political accommodations, and I'm not saying my sin of choice was better than any other sexual sin. What I am saying, is we have a nation that is seriously focused on sexuality, and we've brought what should have been a matter of bedroom privacy between two people and their Creator and made it a matter of public focus, thus "creating" or manufacturing, a circus.
I don't have any gay children, but one of my daughter's is in the adult entertainment industry, and that certainly has not made our bad relationship any better. As a matter of fact, when I view all these guilt inducing gut-wrenching videos about how loving parents need to respond to their kids "coming out," I take comfort in knowing the relationship between that child and myself was already strained beyond the breaking point before she "came out" in this "line of work."
I think I've finally realized, now that our society has become so openly brazen about sex, the difference between Biblically ordained sex and all the rest of this becomes clear. A loving act between a man and a woman is an act of giving and truly being joined. Every other act of sexuality in the headlines seems to be an act of taking, an act of self-indulgence, or an act of spiritual rebellion and mocking defiance. When sexuality becomes an agenda on main street and a political statement in the headlines, not to mention perverse entertainment; intimacy is obviously lacking.
Please forgive me if I'm coming across too blunt or sound forward, but YHWH has placed upon my heart - this "gay agenda" is based upon programming from early psychoanalytic studies as to when children are the most impressionable, least fond of the opposite sex, and children are born; naturally self-focused. Remember in elementary school when boys and girls thought each other had “cooties?” Now if a child is affectionate in any way to the opposite sex, they are labeled a sex offender. Children grow up in homes where the TV promotes it, education promotes it, etc. HE has been showing me much regarding this, but the evil of society is of course "after the children."
