His calling...my journey to walk worthy
Re: His calling...my journey to walk worthy
My Nene is all settled in and Violet arrives in two days. I am looking forward to her arrival.
A local church is doing a Beth Moore simulcast. I want to go.
God is so good and I hope now that I have more time, that I can start some new studies.

Re: His calling...my journey to walk worthy
I've been away for a bit. My computer went out and I had to wait to afford a new one. I have one now! Yay!
So in the meantime, I've got a new puppy. She is absolutely adorable and will be 5 months old next week. She is a very good girl.
Nene is doing great, and I have adjusted well also.
God is blessing me, and I am so happy and thankful at this time in my life.

Re: His calling...my journey to walk worthy
It's a bit cool and rainy tonight for Texas. I don't like the cold. I am a warm weather girl. The church shooting in Texas has really bothered me. It grieves me to know that children were specific targets of Satan's evil. I feel like Satan is becoming more cruel every day. I wonder how much longer God will tarry before He brings an end to the evil. Only He knows, but I can't help but think it must be coming soon.
The Oasis sure is quiet these days. There is a scripture in the Bible, that says God has to build the house. If he doesn't build the house, those who labor do so in vain. I pray that God will rebuild the Oasis. I miss the days, when the Lord's house was full here and the Oasis flourished. May God bless the Oasis, and bring life back to His ministry here.

Re: His calling...my journey to walk worthy
As I sat in a ladies tea at my church last Saturday, I found myself thinking only of how much time the tea was taking. Instead of enjoying the fellowship, music, food and ministry....I was thinking of all the things I still had to do...shame shame on me...Satan does this to me....he overloads me with many things, and I let him....then he takes me away from the true joy the Lord has planned for me....I am trying to do less and enjoy more. Sometimes that is hard for me, as I'm a natural caretaker of people, but I have too...because I need my own relationship with the Lord to be at it's best, so that I can be at my best when I'm serving others.
I love Christianity Oasis....and I love the forums....but God is using many in my church and other ministries more these days. And for me that is ok, because I know that I'm where God needs me most. So, at times I may be away...and it's either that Satan is attacking me by throwing lots my way, and keeping me "too" busy, which I'm working on trying to catch better when he does this....or God is using me somewhere else at that moment....but in my heart Christianity Oasis is home and it's dear to me...so I'll never be too far away.

Re: His calling...my journey to walk worthy
I am doing a Bible Study with my church lady friends. It's called 20 minutes a day. It's really a good study, and also challenges me to dig deeper into my honest spiritual walk. There's no hiding when I haven't studied or prayed like I should. Satan often tries to hinder me, and one thing I've learned through this study is that it's not just me, but it's every lady who is attending the study. So our challenge this week was to do 1 lesson a day for 5 days of the week. So far I've done 2 of the 5 lessons. Yes, it's been 9:30 at night when I've sat down to do the studies, but I feel so awesome once I've taken some time to meditate on God's word.

Re: His calling...my journey to walk worthy
My goodness, has it been over 3 years since I've logged in here? How time flies, but God has led me down so many wonderful paths during those 3 years. I'm still amazed at all the blessings in all the good times and bad of those 3 years. I can't even begin to list them all. I pray that all my Christianity Oasis friends are well. I know life has changed dramatically for many of us with Covid, but God has shown his miracles in so many ways during this pandemic. I've seen God heal, I've seen God take many friends home to Him. I've even had the mother's worry when my own Nene suffered through Covid. Days where she was so bad, I cried and prayed continually for God's healing. At the same time two of my dear friends were also going through the same with their children, and we had days we cried together. But, God!!!! He heard all of our prayers and healed all 3 of our children. He wasn't done yet!! God performed a miracle for one of the mom's son, and got her son who was already on a ventilator a careflight transfer to another hospital...and in this time, you all know covid patient transfers to other hospitals is almost unheard of...but again I say But God!!!! He made it happen, and what is more 1 week after that transfer, her son was off the ventilator and awake!!!! I just want to share a couple of things this mom did when her son was first put on the ventilator. She went to his hospital ICU room and posted scriptures on post it notes all over the windows. You could see the post it notes on the windows from the parking lot. Then she asked all of her friends to go to that parking lot and look up and see those post it notes and pray without ceasing for her son! Her faith in what God could do was so strong and God used her son for his glory and brought about the careflight and transfer to another better hospital 400 miles away. When her son came on the ventilator the next week, the doctors called him their Miracle patient and told him that they needed a win, and nurses and doctors on 2 floors were rejoicing that he was off the ventilator. 4 weeks later that young man went home to his family and saw his oldest son graduate from bootcamp as a Marine. Again, I say But God! This is just one of many miracles and blessings I can share that God has done during this time of covid. I have had a family of 3 come live with me for a year and a half during covid. I also had my brother come live with me for 3 months during this time too. Then we faced the Texas Snowmageddon too. I can offer several stories of blessings during that time too. God is faithful to those who love Him, and He is always there!
Yes, I am still taking care of everyone but myself....but that is just me. I was a bit ill about a month ago, and had to take 3 days off work. I think that was God's way of telling me I needed to rest, as I have a difficult time just resting.
Well I think I'll wrap this up now. I could write 100 pages of blessings.....

Re: His calling...my journey to walk worthy
Beware, if you are reading this...there will be several references in this post to false religions and false doctrine.
You may also want to prepare a cup of coffee....it may be a long read.![lol lol](./images/smilies/lol.gif)
So this afternoon God led me to a post in the prayer forum by Christianity Oasis back in 2017. http://www.christianityoasis.com/Member ... =4&t=29930
Within this post, Christianity Oasis stated this:
As I read this, the Holy Spirit was prodding me to tell my story, as I too have been away many years reaching lost souls in a very, very dark realm. Christianity Oasis sharing that he too had been called away for a while to reach the lost inspired me. Honestly this is the first time I've shared this story with anyone, and I tell it tonight in hopes that God is glorified in all I share here. I will leave out a few things, as I do not want to scare any lost soul who may wander upon this post. This story truly has some dark moments that even scared me at times...just because of the evil that was being exuded and my own spirit was not prayed up enough to handle the evil that was heading my direction....I will admit I even ran a few times, but more about that as I share this story.
Several years ago when the Christianity Oasis Forums and chat were thriving with life, my "feelings" were hurt by a jealous spirit that Satan sent my direction. This spirit whispered terrible things about me, and I even saw sheep and other Shepherds begin to believe it. It happens a lot within churches and church families. Satan is looking for any opening to split a church. I knew that I was under attack, and I was praying that God would deliver me from this attack. Unbeknownst to me God was using this attack to get me to actually enter this path of darkness He was about to take me down. God had a bigger purpose for me, and He had many who could feed the sheep here at the Oasis at the time, if they would so choose, so He set me off down this path.
I won't say exactly where I went but the journey sent me two different places. The first place I went, was but just for a short time. Maybe a couple of years. God opened some amazing doors at this first place. I met hundreds of people from all walks of life. Most were Americans, some were from overseas. Many are still friends to me to this day. Many of these souls were already Christians who were mainly backsliding. Through me, they were given a good dose of Jesus.
Talk about a baptism they didn't expect in one of the most unexpected places. Every chance I got, I was sharing Jesus.
After about 2 years, God decided to move me to another place that I would share HIs Truth for about 10 years and still going. The site is now pretty quiet, due to software updates being cancelled, and a download to your computer being required to visit now. It's been this way for about a year now. But for 9 solid years, it was a battle against darkness every day. This is the story I am most excited to share with all of you. This journey took me all over the world, behind my computer screen. I visited with souls from Taiwan, England, Canada, North America all over, South America many countries there, Lebanon, Iraq, India, Pakistan and the list goes on and on. The souls from the mostly Muslim majority countries, were the ones I visited with the most. The first soul I met was a guy from Peru. I will never forget he was using the name Angry Grandma, so I automatically assumed he was a woman. It wasn't until he introduced me to one of his friends from England that I found out that he was a man. He was using the name Angry Grandma to hide his real identity. To this day, I still laugh about that. I've lost touch with this soul, but for a year or so, he introduced me to souls from Greece, Mexico, Peru, England, America and the list goes on. One of the souls he introduced me to was a very backslidden if not lost soul from California. This soul was a very angry soul who thought mostly of partying and going to "gentlemen's" clubs for a better way to describe it. This angry soul turned into a very good friend. In fact, everyone around me in this group knew that I go to church on Sunday. This soul used to ask me to pray for Him every time I told him I was going to church. Then, this soul went away for a couple years, and I did not hear from him at all. When he came back, I asked him where he had been and he told me about his work, and we began to talk about scripture and the End Times. This soul had been reading his Bible and searching for His calling. I don't hear from this soul much anymore, but occasionally I get a ping from him. As I befriended this soul they introduced me to more souls, and many were much younger than me, and could feel His spirit within me and I became known as "S" Mama to me, as this is what this soul called me. As time moved on, I moved in and out of this circle over 10 years as time allowed. Each time being introduced to more and more souls.
Then God opened a huge door of darkness. It was within the Pakistani, Indian, Iraq and Lebanon countries. This is where the path turns very dark. These souls are mainly men, I did come across a few educated, single women from these countries, but they were few and far between, as women in these societies are often very repressed and not allowed online or out in society alone. I've spent many hours researching these countries, to gain a better understanding of what life there is like. I've watched videos, read foreign news sources, and talked to many souls who were willing to open up to me about their lives in these countries. When I first came upon this doorway, I only had the basic knowledge of these countries that I had learned in world history in college. There is a calling to reach souls in these countries like you would not believe, and many Christians refuse to or are not able to journey into these countries to try and reach souls. I understand why as there is a lot of evil in these countries. Evil you do not hear about on the American news. Also getting these cultures to "trust" a Christian much less an American Christian is not an easy task. Many of these countries have been designated terrorist countries by the American government and travel is banned to them, especially Pakistan. Since covid, travel to India and many other countries has been closed to Americans unless it is for business. Therefore, it is even harder to get souls from these countries to trust you because you live in the "enemy" country. But, God....He knew that He within me would be accepted....so He sent me.
There are so many stories to tell regarding this doorway....but as I said at the beginning, some are too dark for me to share with souls who might be scared away by them. For now, I will just share what I feel led to share. As I stated earlier these countries are predominately Muslim. Most of the souls I encountered talked about the strictness of this dark religion and how they were required to "perform" certain things and do certain things at certain times of day. If they did not, they, their families and their careeers could be jeopardized. Many of the souls I encountered were extremely educated and high careers in hospitals, laboratories, government, businesses, computer networking, sales etc. The wages in these countries are very low even for the most educated. The poverty level and inflation is sky high. In India the religion is more of the dark religion Hinduism, but these bound souls too are bound by terror and threats to their families from the government and the police. These countries also have a caste system. It is a system that people are born into, and their caste can never change. It's a horrible thing, and most countries I have spoke about have "banned" the recognition of this system, but from many I speak to, it is a very alive and well thing. It is just "hidden" or nothing is done to enforce the bans. This said, Satan rules these countries by fear. And the fear is heart wrenching to witness. Christians there are extremely persecuted, so just imagine little me....tip toeing in the door quietly behind Satan, and declaring proudly that I am a Christian woman from America.
God's not dead my friends...and when God wants something He will open those doors. So, the first Pakistani I met was a very high up doctor in the medical field in Karachi, Pakistan. He is married and a very devout practicing Muslim who was about to get a whole lot of Jesus in his life. God allowed this soul to befriend me, and it was this soul that would open the door for God to enter through me. It was this soul that introduced me to hundreds of souls from Pakistan. And those souls introduced me to souls from India, Lebanon, Iraq etc. I can't remember all of the countries, as God's focus was mainly on the Pakistani souls through me. These souls from this country tend to want to be near Him in me. I sadly think that sometimes it is the thirst within them for a drink of the Living Water that brings them near and allows them to listen to what I share. I was the only Christian soul within this community of hundreds. And...may I say this....God never waivered in His faithfulness to me during these dark walks on these dark paths. I could have easily been turned away at any time from sharing with these souls, yet I never was. They would ask me many questions, and I shared my answers honestly. God had found a way to place His light where it was needed most. I still have contact with this group of souls, and offer His love and Truth every chance I am given.
I want to talk about India for a moment as well. I made 2 very good friends from India. These souls get a dose of Jesus from me on a constant, and one of them tells me He believes in Jesus. Yet, I fear that he still goes through the motions of the darkness of HInduism for his family's safety. I know that God knows what He is doing with this soul, but I worry about this soul's salvation. Only God knows for sure, and I have to be at peace with that. The other soul I have met from India, I am still working on. I've been talking to this soul for a couple of years now, but I'm not giving up as God didn't give up on me.
*sigh* This next story is one that still burdens me to this day. This is about a soul who lives in Iraq. This is a young man about the age of 16 when I met him. He is probably closer to 18 or 19 now. At the time I met this soul, he was being sent to a school to become an Islamic mosque leader by his dad. He had been attending a high school that only taught this dark religion all its practices. This soul was so much under Satan's control that even I was fearful when speaking to him. God removed me from talking with this soul. This soul even asked me to have a private chat with him about my own Christian faith and wanted to discuss the Bible with me. God told me it was going to be a debate and for me to remove myself quickly from this discussion and that I was there to show His love and His light, not to debate with someone that would not "hear" the sharing of His word through me. I pray for this soul even now, that God can send someone to share His truth that will reach this soul's mind and heart. God's will be done.
I want to also touch on Lebanon. I have been called to Lebanon many times over the years. In person here in America to Lebanese souls, as well as online in Lebanon. This is another country I have a passion for. This is a very war torn country and has been for years. Just like Iraq. There are souls within this country who are crying out for Light. I've encountered several. Some have been saved and know Jesus as their savior. Many still do not. Again they are willing to listen and thirst for Truth.
I do want to take a moment to talk about the Spiritual attacks I have endured on this journey. The places I've had to enter to reach out to these souls have not been "wholesome" places, and definitely not a place that most women are even allowed to glimpse. There were times when I entered a room, the souls would announce my presence amongst them and start deleting messages that I might read that they felt were "not appropriate". Also, the ones who controlled these groups would often threaten all within the group to treat me with respect, and to "behave" when I was around. What they didn't know was God was surrounding me with His angels when I was in their presence, and that I would not be harmed by the foul words or actions Satan would hurl at me. There were times I was subjected to terrible persecution and the things that were said to me were terrifying and terrible, but God always prevailed, as He needed me there to sow the seeds of His truth.
One thing I will share is that within the hundreds of souls that I have shared with over these 10 years, many have all said the same thing about me. They say that I am they nicest soul they have ever met. What they don't realize is that Jesus within me is nice. He is kind. He is compassionate. He is love. Agape-A love that loves even when that love isn't deserved. God's love. It's not me...it's Him! Praise His holy name for He is worthy!
I have many stories that I could share about these 10 years of reaching and sharing Jesus with these souls, but it would take me a very long time to write all of them down...any my journal wouldn't really be the best place for all of them. I know if God wants me to share them, He will figure out how and when.
Now, I want to touch on the rest of Christianity Oasis' shared prayer above. It is with great sadness that I too sit here and see what used to be a sanctuary and a hospital for hurting souls quiet beyond quiet. God's not dead....may He revive the Oasis if it is His will. May the hospital reopen for business. You can be assured Satan will attack the idea at every direction, as Satan only attacks what threatens him. If you aren't a threat...Satan won't worry about you....but if you are a threat...hold on for the ride!
If you are reading my journal, I pray you are blessed by the journey I have shared, and I hope it will encourage you to seek your calling and Let His Light Shine within you to the hurting and the lost.
God's will be done. Amen
You may also want to prepare a cup of coffee....it may be a long read.

So this afternoon God led me to a post in the prayer forum by Christianity Oasis back in 2017. http://www.christianityoasis.com/Member ... =4&t=29930
Within this post, Christianity Oasis stated this:
Christianity Oasis wrote:The Oasis forums and Chat room used to be a thriving pasture with hundreds of sheep who grazed daily. There were many shepherds who provided care. Then, I am called away for a time as to create other places to reach even more souls.
I return and find ... THIS.
I speak not these words in vanity or anger ... But, rather because I am truly saddened and worry about those sheep who are being led here and finding no care.
THIS ... Is why I make this prayer today.
In Jesus' name I ask ...
May God's will ....... Be done.
Luv all of ya

Only God knows for sure, and I have to be at peace with that. The other soul I have met from India, I am still working on. I've been talking to this soul for a couple of years now, but I'm not giving up as God didn't give up on me.
*sigh* This next story is one that still burdens me to this day. This is about a soul who lives in Iraq. This is a young man about the age of 16 when I met him. He is probably closer to 18 or 19 now. At the time I met this soul, he was being sent to a school to become an Islamic mosque leader by his dad. He had been attending a high school that only taught this dark religion all its practices. This soul was so much under Satan's control that even I was fearful when speaking to him. God removed me from talking with this soul. This soul even asked me to have a private chat with him about my own Christian faith and wanted to discuss the Bible with me. God told me it was going to be a debate and for me to remove myself quickly from this discussion and that I was there to show His love and His light, not to debate with someone that would not "hear" the sharing of His word through me. I pray for this soul even now, that God can send someone to share His truth that will reach this soul's mind and heart. God's will be done.
I want to also touch on Lebanon. I have been called to Lebanon many times over the years. In person here in America to Lebanese souls, as well as online in Lebanon. This is another country I have a passion for. This is a very war torn country and has been for years. Just like Iraq. There are souls within this country who are crying out for Light. I've encountered several. Some have been saved and know Jesus as their savior. Many still do not. Again they are willing to listen and thirst for Truth.
I do want to take a moment to talk about the Spiritual attacks I have endured on this journey. The places I've had to enter to reach out to these souls have not been "wholesome" places, and definitely not a place that most women are even allowed to glimpse. There were times when I entered a room, the souls would announce my presence amongst them and start deleting messages that I might read that they felt were "not appropriate". Also, the ones who controlled these groups would often threaten all within the group to treat me with respect, and to "behave" when I was around. What they didn't know was God was surrounding me with His angels when I was in their presence, and that I would not be harmed by the foul words or actions Satan would hurl at me. There were times I was subjected to terrible persecution and the things that were said to me were terrifying and terrible, but God always prevailed, as He needed me there to sow the seeds of His truth.
One thing I will share is that within the hundreds of souls that I have shared with over these 10 years, many have all said the same thing about me. They say that I am they nicest soul they have ever met. What they don't realize is that Jesus within me is nice. He is kind. He is compassionate. He is love. Agape-A love that loves even when that love isn't deserved. God's love. It's not me...it's Him! Praise His holy name for He is worthy!
I have many stories that I could share about these 10 years of reaching and sharing Jesus with these souls, but it would take me a very long time to write all of them down...any my journal wouldn't really be the best place for all of them. I know if God wants me to share them, He will figure out how and when.
Now, I want to touch on the rest of Christianity Oasis' shared prayer above. It is with great sadness that I too sit here and see what used to be a sanctuary and a hospital for hurting souls quiet beyond quiet. God's not dead....may He revive the Oasis if it is His will. May the hospital reopen for business. You can be assured Satan will attack the idea at every direction, as Satan only attacks what threatens him. If you aren't a threat...Satan won't worry about you....but if you are a threat...hold on for the ride!
If you are reading my journal, I pray you are blessed by the journey I have shared, and I hope it will encourage you to seek your calling and Let His Light Shine within you to the hurting and the lost.
God's will be done. Amen
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.
