Hey Everybody!  Guess what??????????

I took 3 home pregnancy tests this weekend and they all came out positive!   I have NEVER been on birth control and I have only had one child, that I found out I was pregnant with him in 2/2001.   So almost 10 years later?   WOW WOW WOW!    So I am going to the doctor tomorrow to confirm it!   I really hope it is a real pregnancy you know and not some issue that would mimic a pregnancy.   So I will find out from the doctor and let everyone know!   :-) 

And it is weird because you know how the Lord has been wanting me to witness to my family?   Well I have been waiting on this family book which is like 75 pages of people's info of people I used to see all the time, but when my grandparents died (they were like the leaders of the family), everyone stopped hanging out.   Well anyways my aunt was supposed to go to their family Thanksgiving gathering and she did not show up.   My cousin brought the book with her so my aunt could ship it to me.   Then my cousin brought the book again at the Christmas gathering and put my book under the tree, and again my aunt did not show up.    Well I was very upset that I have not received the family book you know.   I was prepared to start on this new project the Lord gave me and I felt that the enemy was blocking it.   Anyways the Lord said that it was delayed a little bit, but in the meantime at least I have been talking on the phone and emailing a few of them.   That at least got the seed planted and the ball rolling.    Well, I called my cousin and told her I would send her some money because it did not look like anyone was going to send me the book.   And my cousin said she is going to go ahead and send the book to me and pay for it.   She has been spending a lot of money on preparing the books and then mailing them out.   And guess what she told me?    The Lord told her to put a letter in the front of the book that said that you are not born again if you base your salvation on the fact you were brought up in a Christian family, went to church and you had someone in your family that was a preacher.   WOW!   Another seed that has been planted.

And I could not understand why all of a sudden I just really wanted to get another dog.   Seriously I want a dachshund right now and I am trying to figure out where I can get one.   Maybe I can go to the county this week and check them out?   I just love those kind of dogs!   They are so AWESOME!    And then I started fixing up the middle bedroom and putting Betty Boop dolls and Pink Elephants in there.   And we had this bed that was in the downstairs bedroom, and since my husband is still recovering from his knee surgery, he needed a workout room.   So I moved the bed upstairs and made it into a girls bedroom for some reason.   And then so I went to Big 5 and loaded two workout machines into the car for my husband.   So now he can work out a lot, as much as he wants!    Because the outside here in LA has been sometimes pretty cold and raining and he cannot always ride his mountain bike.    Now I understand that I have been nesting!    And the Lord Jesus has been telling me to GATHER HIS FLOCK into the ARK!    Anyways I was told that the warnings have all gone out and at this point for me personally I would not be doing my job of loading the Ark if I am worried about the arguments of the people who don't want to enter the Ark of the Rapture.   Also, for some reason I have had it on my heart to want to adopt a child also.   You know because my son is 9 years old and if I had a baby, then he might feel left out.   And so now my husband and I are checking into it!    This is totally exciting because I think children are awesome!    I am really, really wanting to have a family that we can go camping, go to a log cabin in the mountains and do some awesome outdoors stuff.    I want to do a really treacherous hike, you know?    I was looking online and there is seriously a hiking trail that runs the entire length of the West Coast and I want to at least trek part of it!   

OK and for the dreams!  The night of January 21, I had a dream where a priest was sitting in a booth/office in the bowels of a city.   It was pretty gnarly there and he had been given a duty of caring for homeless people.    And I saw that these homeless people were not even being managed by the priest.    The people had not been fed, he did not assist them in getting showers, did not take an inventory of their addictions that led them to be homeless, did not ask people for donations of blankets and clothes to help the people at mass, and he was not trying to assist them in moving out of the shelter by figuring out what their trade had been.    Then I saw the priest looking always across the street.   A man walked up to the priest and scolded him.   He said, I want to pay for dinner for all of these people.   And then he told the priest, what is wrong with you, you were given charge to this group of people to feed and take care of them, it was your job.   And then the priest pointed across the street at the large cathedral and said, I want to be head of that cathedral.   And the man who was distinguished said, how can the Lord give you more responsibility if you fail to do the tasks He has given you charge with?    Is not the caring of a human being as important or even more important than the job in which you are eying?    I took this dream as the Lord saying to me that He is not going to give me more things to do for Him unless I obey Him in the small things He has told me to do.   For example I asked Him what things were important for me to do for Him.   And He showed me that taking care of my animals and cooking for my husband were important to Him.   It showed service and love.   And so I have been trying to do these things, and I believe maybe that is why now the Lord is allowing me to get pregnant?   Because I so much want a baby and have not been able to get pregnant.   And so I have been trying to be faithful in the small things. 

Second dream was from my son and it was the night of the 22nd of January.    He has never read the book Pilgrim's Progress, so this is totally exciting to me!    He and a bunch of his teachers, friends, and parents from all the schools he has ever attended in his life all left their classrooms to walk.   They were going to walk down the path of salvation.   When they started walking, there were two paths.   One was very narrow and open.   Some of the parents said, remember you have to stay on the narrow path.   They started walking and they were not Christians, but they saw a city ahead that glowed.   They immediately fell off a cliff into Hell.    They chose too fast and without discernment.    The other people looked at the other path and it was blocked by ogres and trolls.   And so the kids knew that anything that was worth fighting for, must be blocked.   They noticed the road was also narrow and since they heard the screams of the parents on the other path, they knew that they needed to fight these ogres and trolls.    On the side, hidden from these monsters, were weapons of swords and shields for them.   The teachers, parents and kids who wanted to fight picked them up and battled.   The ogres and trolls laughed and said that this was the wrong path, that it led to hell and why would they fight to go to hell?   They were supposed to guard the entrance so that people did not go there.   So then the ogres and trolls were killed and they walked down the path.   They arrived at a City of Silver which was very, very beautiful.   And everyone was glamorous and wealthy.   The residents of the City were trying to lure the people in to live there.   Some of the group stayed there.   The ones that wanted to leave, the residents were very angry and started to try to come after them.   And angel from the Lord showed up and let out a scream from his mouth that came out in the form of a tornado and the residents were pushed back.    The ones left in the group who were not afraid of the residents and what they would do to them if they left, pressed on out of the City down the path.   They came to a fork in the road.    On one side of the fork was a narrow path with some false gods such as Mohammed, Buddha, and many others.   They were wearing beautiful prestigious clothes and looked like royalty.   They claimed that all of their paths lead to God and if they walked down this path, that they would be trained in their ways.   They would be taught yoga, martial arts, chanting, meditation, channeling, astral projection.    Some of the people were enticed by these things and went down that path and fell into Hell.   The other people in the group said no, let us continue down the other fork in the road.    Jesus Christ is the only way, so let us see what happens down this other path.   Clearly there are no other paths to go down, except this one.   They came upon a lake and there was no getting around the lake unless you went through it.    A man on a little boat came up to the group on the shore and said why don't you guys get on my boat and I will take you across?    And so they all got in the boat and halfway during the trip, some of the group said that the boat was too small and could not hold them all.   The man said not to worry, the boat could hold as much people as it needed for the trip that he was making.   It was a special boat.   But some of the people would not listen and they jumped out of the boat.   The man screamed, this is not water even though it appears to be....it is Hell fire!   And the people that jumped out of the boat were consumed and sent into hell.    Up ahead of the lake there was no more path and so the remainder of the group was really, really confused.   There was only a beautiful cloud with sunshine.   And at the edge of the lake on the other side, there was a mighty angel who had a chariot device that looked like a large bubble the people would sit inside.   The angel had a list in his hand and looked at the group going over the names.   And to a couple of people the angel said, WHY ARE YOU HERE, you are not on the list.   And they were thrown into hell immediately.   The rest of the group went inside of the bubble and were transported to Heaven.    The people that were not on the list were not really born again, they were evil people that were trying to blend into the group to sow division to get the people off the path the entire time.   They were trying always to ruin the credibility of the group by trying to obtain personal information about them saying so and so is vain, don't listen to them.   So and so has been divorced, don't listen to them.   And so at the time of the transition of the rapture, the angel had not been deceived, the angel knew who was of the goats and who were of the lambs.    Let us continue down the path of the rapture in faith!    Just because maybe you wanted to stay at the city of silver for a while, does not mean that you cannot leave.   Just because you went down the path of the false gods does not mean that right now you cannot fight them to get back on the path of narrow road.   If you have not died yet, then that means that you can continue on!    Yes, while trying to get back on the narrow path may be a battle, the battle is only for a short season and mighty angels will assist you to get you back.   But it has to be a serious decision.  Praise God! 

Guys, this year is so wild!   And exciting!   God just gave me a dose of oil for my lamp!   Hoorah!
