It has been A While

Sorry

It has been a long while since i have done any thing new to add to my Blog. the truth is that I have been very sick and in a tremendous amount of pain. my legs and feet are on fire and i am confined to staying inside of my home. When i do go out it is for short trips to Walmart and pretty much that is all. The pain is growing worst and I just am stuck being without medical help, no insurance, un-insurable as they say. it will be a while till i write again,

God Bless You, Love Carl

This is the desert, Las Vegas, Nevada

pictured at the end of my street is the new East Side Cannery Casino. as you can see they are very close and light up the night sky with neopn stares, got to love vegas, carl

My Little House in the Desert

Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame
Even when the times are hard
Fierce winds are bound to blow
God is forever able
Hold on to what you know
Imagine life without His love
J oy would cease to be
Keep thanking Him for all the things
Love imparts to thee
Move out of "Camp Complaining"
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone
Quit looking at the future
Redeem the time at hand
Start every day with worship
To "thank" is a command
Until we see Him coming
Victorious in the sky We'll run the race with gratitude
X alting God most high
Y es, there'll be good times and yes some will be bad, but...
Z ion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!

"I AM Too blessed to be stressed!"

The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor.
The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything.
Love and peace be with you forever, Amen.

PS: GOD LOVES YOU...Pass this word on to more friends and ask them to continue telling others that GOD love them too. Just think of how many people that could be reached out to and blessed with these words.

No One knows

No one, but the One
Knows the time and of That Day


We had been told
And this righteously so
For here in black and white had been written
Yet but several millennia or so ago

For it has been my understanding
That this very Christ Jesus did not even know
For that time and place was for one only to know
This is God The Father; He was only to have known

So my children please be weary
Of those who claim that they know
The time and place for the time
Of our Christ Jesus to finally come home.

For you will hear rumors
For many will boldly proclaim
That they have received a special foreknowledge
To me they are to be considered deranged

So when you hear stories
of the coming time and the place
Please open up your bible
The Holy Spirit will show you the place

For no one knows
And you can trust this most trustable of sites
For it has been written in your Bible, This Book of all life
For our Father God only knows, can you deny that He is right?

A Matter of Interpretation?
It had been discussed at quite length
Scholars thought that there interpretation
Was the correct one of course?

Correct maybe if The Holy Spirit was not in you
Could these men of many learning's
Could they themselves be led astray?
Wasn’t there something about running too and fro

Something about so much knowledge that it was meaningless this day
After all, is it not the center of most discussions?
Is it not what all the so-called Scholars say?
After all they all have their diplomas

There diplomas that say they know what they say
Look they are all saying the same thing
It is temporary at the best
Yet I have herd it said that they were preparing

By digging holes in the ground for them to soon stay, a place of safety a place of rest?
They had a scientific quorum
For all the best of the best did show that day
For it was the time to make discussions

For they had calculated the coming last day
All the ancient books had been open
Cather in columns all segue
Notebooks of written words upon papers

Formulas discussed then reissued then all confused
Nothing made any sense anymore
Basic truths up heaved and defused
It had become like Babble once again

This time science, technology, we had abused
There was nothing left for us to fight for
No greener to take in, any flowers left, only gloom
We a people had lost our way, somehow we had been betrayed

All hope to us was lost; we were but only the fools, left so confused, left so crushed
What in Gods very name were we thinking?
What kind of delusions had we all been under
Why did all of this so-called Mankind become so fooled?

What in the very depths of our evil hearts had we sunk too
We are but fools
We have been given paradise
And we gave it all away but for the thought of becoming like very gods

What in the very name of creation had we done, I had cried out in disbelieve
Our science had failed us
Technology lay in ruins, staked up in piles of twisted plastics and metals
Grotesque metal sculptures remain

They warn us of yet another evil to come
We are now being taunted by voices unseen
And the very air around us has grown thick with mistrust
For we, mankind know the end is coming very near

Can you feel the hairs on the back of your neck?
The Seals have been open, do we dear to assume which?

Prayer Request

Please submit your prayer requests so that we can all form a prayer circle and ask our Father God for His help in your or your family's life. Together we can be many voice's turned to one voice. We can ask of The father His help as His children that we are or will soon become through our prayers to Him. I ask you to send in your prayers so that together we can ask The Lord for His help and guidance. God bless You All, Love, Carl

Wormwood Part 1 & 2

Worm Wood-Part One
There had been strange rumblings
This for quite a long while
Those in power new that something was coming

When asked were from, they all pointed, fingers pointing straight up into the ski
Now there had always been talk
That perhaps some day a near miss
And one for sure they knew off, some say perhaps more

Well they say they new one wiped out all those dinosaurs
But this is just talk, science fiction at best
Doomsday scenarios with all the best technical effects
Yet was this not read, in the Book of Life?

A star would fall from the heavens, destroying on third of all its inhabitants, one third of all human life
Destroying one third of all the fresh waters
Destroying one third of all plant and animal life

This planet Earth as we knew it
All this once created would lose its cohesion in just one plight
We had all been warned

For it had been written in the ancient texts
That Mother Earth would be smitten
By this evil from the black heavens on an unknown night

For the name was even given
Words of horror and grief
So much of this so called human kind
In but one day would now be deceased





Worm Wood Part Two

This Planet is dying

For this Earth so rumbled
Mighty winds blown across these lands
Very mountains crumble down to mere pebbles in minutes
This great earth shakes so very hard, but for that of but another moment it will end

For this had never happened
For at least since any records had been kept
Even the very islands
Slipped into the waters, these shaken waters did not relent

For every raised surface had been shaken
As never before had there ever been such an event
Not one high place would be standing
For not any low or high places would there be left

An entire civilization
All that would have been called the very best of man
All shaken to their very foundations
All once built upon rock has turned into sand

Have we been caught unguarded?
Were we not aware of such an event?
Was it not written in the very Book of the Heavens?
Were not the words, the Truth God sent

The only word that I may leave you
Please make sure you always say your prayers
For there is one that hides in the shadows
Whose day has yet to be known, for he has been watching for years

The Seal has been Broken

The Seal has been Broken-Chapters One

This parchment
Deeply yellowed with great age and weight
Written from ancient times so very long ago
Edges worn and cracked from great ages past

The parchment lay open upon the dried earth
Seal of wax broken in two crimson pieces
Words written in that of an ancient unknown language

Had these words been spoken
Had there been herd a great sigh
When these written words had been uttered

Sealed so long from the ears of mankind
When first read out loud, did the reader cry out
Wow to this human kind

There will begin great turmoil now to be known
For what was once, will now cease to be
For even with all of mans great knowledge, he will fail

When the seal had been broken
The very words of prophecy now have become very fact
The change at first appeared to be subtle

In the end, the very end it has become very fact
We as humans
We could not see that the change had begun
The very foundations of mankind would now be shaken

Man will have been brought to the very ground
We had drifted to much away from were we had come from
We walked away from our Father God
This we gave up in the name of
Civilization


How eager we were to leave
Our Father God we had so loved
Walked away from This Written Word
So very many of us new as His love

As foolish children
We thought we knew it all
How deep, how sad, we humans, how hard we had to fall
Fall away from the Truth that was our very Father’s All

Chapter-Two
The Seal has been Broken, How many more to Come

This creation called mankind
How hard do they fight to exist?
Do they not yet realize?
That what little time they will have to make this a finale peace

Seven Seals that must be broken
Each carries an arrow and a tear
A young mother for here unborn children cries
While a red-hot arrow tip splits the skin

We had all been warned
For there is not one excuse
We can not rest on what was once done yesterday
For in the now is all we can do

Say your prayers, my dear children
For all that is said, will all this come to truth
For the ski will have fallen, it’s name is Wormwood
Say your prayers my dear children

For it has been written
For you all know this to be true
For it has been written in The book of Life
Please look for yourself, it is fact and it is truth

Masada

This generations Last Stand-Chapter One

For we are at One, One Nation once more
For this time, will be our last time
We as a People, a Nation of Souls will fight
No more will we be dispersed among the nations any more

We once The People of a Great Nation
Dispersed among all the nations
For a call has come out from Israel
Our Mother has called all of Her Children to come Home

Israel, O’ Israel
Calling all your Children once more to come Home
This will be Our Greatest Glory
We will rebuild The Third Temple, never to be destroyed any more

For we are an Ancient Peoples
For we have preserved The Written Word and Traditions of our God
For we are a Chosen people
First but not the least of His children of our Father God

For Us, this very Generation
Yes, we can feel it deep, rising in the blood
For it is this Generation, O’ Israel
For it is we that Speak, Never again, Never again will we back down











Masada Chapter Two

This Our Final Stand

For these fifty plus years we have labored
Reclaimed the Deserts with our sweat and our blood
Out of these barren rocks we built our cities
These foundations we know they will not ever rot

We have welcomed back our Peoples
Searched this earth from high and low
We have found what treasure had been taken from us
We will not let our past ever be taken or forgotten, or let go

This time, this time
We as a Nation of Jews, Say No!
For this will never do for never more we proclaim
It is death till this the end, we have pledged in our hearts to make

In finale proclamation
We the nation of The Jew
We shall fight till the end of everything
Or we shall die in making this true.

Prayer

Through prayer I have found my peace, I have found my safety and a place of eternal refuge from this earthly storm. I mean this life can be so very hard at times, and through prayer we can ask for our Fathers guidance, His Love, His support.

Every night before I go to bed I take a moment to make reflection of my day. I get myself all cozy and comfortable for I never know how long my prayers will take. Then I begin. Thank you father for this day you have given me. And a good day it was and I thank you. Then I go through my day and I talk to Him about what I had done or what I might have said, and often tell Him how sorry I was when I goofed up. You have to remember to always tell God the truth, do not candy coat it. And always remember to talk to God with the respect that He deserves. Never call God dad or the big guy up there, call Him father God with all the respect and Love He deserves, and He deserves all that we can give. God is the father and He is truth, the perfection of truth.

You always come before God on bended knee even when lying down in your bed at night. I always ask The Father to thank Christ Jesus for His life that He gave for me as well as all mankind, all that we had to do was to ask for forgiveness and except Jesus as His one and only Son. Tell God that you be leave with all your heart that this is the truth and you dedicate all your heart and soul to them both.


I then ask The Father to help the Holy Spirit in me to grow wise and strong. To help make me into a better Christian to serve The Father & Son to the best that I am able. I tell The father I want Him to be proud of me. I want Him to say when my time comes, yes I know you Carl, and I remember your prayers well. That is what I wish to hear The Father say. I will then ask The Father to please forgive me for what I may have forgot to have confessed.
Then before closing I ask Him to forgive us humans for turning away from Him, and what a great mistake that had been.




In closing I ask the father to bless my friends and my family and I always call out each one of their names. I ask the Father to please tell my Mother how much I love her and that I miss her so much that my heart is still broken, and in pain. I ask Him to watch over her, as I know He watches over Mary, the Mother of Jesus and I remind Him that I know how much He must love her. Then finally I once again tell Him thank You for this day and to please bless my two dogs, Cassie & Reilly. They’re in there teenage years and are driving me crazy, and say thank you for all the love they give me and help me make it through my day.

There are some nights that I will talk with Him for a couple of hours, I just guess I have a lot to say. Then some nights I am so tired I may tell Him thank you for getting through this crazy day and God Bless you God. Amen
The important thing is please just talk to God each and every day. Make the time to tell Him how much you love Him. How much love you have in your heart for Him. For me I like to pray at bedtime when I can have that private time for father and child talk. I am relaxed and the day is done. Other times during the day I will often take a moment out to say thank you father, job well done. You are truly the Creator, look at all you have done.
Prayer, Talking to The father, talking to the Son. Do it now, do it every day for the rest of your life. God Bless you my children, Love Carl

Canoe
Friday 04.23.04 [11:01 pm]

A Lonely CanoeA small lonely sad canoeWas swimming down the Blue BayouLooking for a place to berthAll alone on this great big earthHe has traveled many miles aloneLooking for a brand new homeThe journey seemed never-endingIf there was only a place to clingWhere he came from was not niceHe was treated like a block of iceHe was small and they were largeOne of them even a bargeThe many boats were not his friendsHis only sight, their big back endsHe stayed alone, not in their thoughtsSmall and tiny, to them a mere dotOff he went to seek some spaceLooking for a new home baseEver hopeful to meet new friendsSomeone to share with till the endThen one day he saw from afarShining brightly like a starIn the distance there it layA dozen boats in a little bayBoats his size and just as niceHe moved in to take his sliceHe was welcomed on this dayThe little canoe had found his wayA new beginning not an endTo his story there was a bendAll his searching worth the waitThis was where he met his mateBy: Jeanne Grant 4-1-04 (copywrite)

Walk with God
Tuesday 04.27.04 [8:14 am]

My Walk With GodWhen I started my walk with GodI found the way was very hardSinful ways I found were easyBut do not give the same reward.I felt I wasn't good enoughI never felt successBut a friend told me this,"You are a work in progress"He said, "God doesn't expectA perfect person for you to beYou work along the path of lifeLearning so you can see."So off I go on this great walkPraying for all God's wisdomTo come to me in loving trustAnd take me to His kingdom.By: Jeanne Grant 4-25-04 (copywrite)

Prayer is indeed a most powerful tool!

Prayer is a powerful tool!




]
Failure is not an option
Each and everyone one of us are going through tough times right now, but God is getting ready
to bless you in a way that only He can. Keep the faith. My instructions were to pick
four people that I wanted
God to bless, and I picked you.
Please pass this to at least
(4) people you want to be blessed
and a copy back to me. This prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts wereceive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards.
Let's continue t o pray for one another. The prayer:
Father, I ask You to bless
my friends, relatives and those that
I care deeply for, who are readingthis right now.
Show them a new revelation of your
love and power.
Where there is pain, give them your peace and mercy.
Where there is self-doubt, release a
renewed confidence through yourgrace.
Where there is need,
I ask you to fulfill their needs.
Bless their homes, families, finances,
their goings and their comings.
Amen.(If the Lord lays upon your heart to send this to more than four people, you are truly blessed).

Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation

This prayer speaks more truth than I have heard in a long time."Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today and forever." Heb. 13:8 "But seek ye FIRST the Kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matt. 6:33
THIS MAN SURE HAS A GOOD VIEW OF WHAT'S HAPPENING TO OUR COUNTRY!

Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation
'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem. We have abused power and called it politics. We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment. Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and Set us free. Amen!'
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program, 'The Rest of the Story,' and received a larger response to this program than any other he has ever aired. With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called 'One Nation under God.'Think about this: If you forward this prayer to everyone on your e-mail list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by the world. (It's worth a try!) One Nation under God.

Path of LightBy: Jeanne Grant

I awoke this day to a bright new sky

The sun is not shining and I wonder why

I look around, take stock of the day

Feeling that I might lose my way

Then up ahead I see a bright lightIt's so outstanding, what a wonderful sight

The light stays ahead paving my wayIt is so awesome, takes my breath away.

Could that be my Father lighting my path?

Is that Him clearing my way with His wrath?

I know the scripture says

He's the light for my wayI know this is true as I see Him this day

I follow along with complete trust in Him

Not just wandering all alone on a whim

But trusting my Father to lead me as I go

He will not lead me into trouble this I know

In DarknessBy: Jeanne Grant

Today my world has been rather dark

Life is changing, future seems rather stark

How can I make the adjustments needed

Warnings were there but went unheeded

Sadness is touching all parts of my heart

Piercing my soul with a lightning-like dart

Peace I need, it keeps flitting away

I long for release for my cares of the day

My heart is heavy, my head in a spin

Wondering frantic which emotion will win

Too much to absorb, too much to decide

My body is tortured, a tornado inside

Lord give me the strength to endure all that I can

Don't let me stagger, help me make the right stand

Please keep me on track and into Your Word

Stay by my side, I need you my Lord

Trust and ObeyBy: Jeanne Grant

When I became a Lamb of God

The first thing that I learned

It was easier being a sinner

Than the person I had turned

It's funny how you never think

That you're living your life bad

All things seemed so normalIt is very very sad

It takes a lot of loveTo trust in God and change

But totally, it's worth your time

To be so rearranged

He is the one who made you

He is your end of times

His son He gave you gladly

As payment for your crimes

The song says very strongly

To trust Him and obey

The rewards will be well worth it

When you meet with Him one day.

God"s Gift, by Jeanne Grant

God's GiftBy: Jeanne Grant

The night was quiet,

the moon was high

The stars were bright, all wondered why

The time had come, the moment heady

A nest of straw was standing ready

All held their breaths, the babe was birthed

Our newborn Lord was on this earth

We take today to celebrate

The awesome gift we all did wait

Take the time, to remember why

The day would come, he would say goodbye

Thank you Father,

It is PaidBy: Jeanne Grant

I once was lost but now I'm saved

My sins were many but now they're waived

The love of Jesus paid for them

I would have perished if not for Him

It's nice to know

that I am loved

By my God,

the one above.

Turn It OverBy: Jeanne Grant

Turn it over to the Lord

Let Him watch my every word

Hold my tongue, don't let it out

Stop the feelings I might spout

Help me thru this trying moment

Leave me peace and no more torment

Up I want but down I feel

This can't be me, it seems not real

Jobs they come and jobs they go

Let me savor uneventful flow

Through the season let me function

With not bitterness but with conviction

Giving help, not easy to rile

Dreading not and with a big smile

Thank you Lord for being near

When my paper fills with falling tears

We are Masada

This generations Last Stand-Chapter One
For we are at One, One Nation once more

For this time, will be our last time
We as a People, a Nation of Souls will fight
No more will we be dispersed among the nations any more

We once The People of a Great Nation
Dispersed among all the nations
For a call has come out from Israel
Our Mother has called all of Her Children to come Home

Israel, O’ Israel
Calling all your Children once more to come Home
This will be Our Greatest Glory
We will rebuild The Third Temple, never to be destroyed any more

For we are an Ancient Peoples
For we have preserved The Written Word and Traditions of our God
For we are a Chosen people
First but not the least of His children of our Father God

For Us, this very Generation
Yes, we can feel it deep, rising in the blood
For it is this Generation, O’ Israel
For it is We that Speak, Never again, Never again will We back down

The Seal has been Broken-Chapter One

The Seal has been Broken-Chapters One

This parchment
Deeply yellowed with great age and weight
Written from ancient times so very long ago
Edges worn and cracked from great ages past

The parchment lay open upon the dried earth
Seal of wax broken in two crimson pieces
Words written in that of an ancient unknown language

Had these words been spoken
Had there been herd a great sigh
When these written words had been uttered

Sealed so long from the ears of mankind
When first read out loud, did the reader cry out
Wow to this human kind

There will begin great turmoil now to be known
For what was once, will now cease to be
For even with all of mans great knowledge, he will fail

When the seal had been broken
The very words of prophecy now have become very fact
The change at first appeared to be subtle
In the end, the very end it has become very fact

We as humans
We could not see that the change had begun
The very foundations of mankind would now be shaken
Man will have been brought to the very ground

We had drifted to much away from were we had come from
We walked away from our Father God
This we gave up in the name of
Civilization


How eager we were to leave
Our Father God we had so loved
Walked away from This Written Word
So very many of us new as His love

As foolish children
We thought we knew it all
How deep, how sad, we humans, how hard we had to fall
Fall away from the Truth that was our very Father’s All

Worm Wood-Part One

There had been strange rumblings
This for quite a long while
Those in power new that something was coming
When asked were from, they all pointed, fingers pointing straight up into the ski

Now there had always been talk
That perhaps some day a near miss
And one for sure they knew off, some say perhaps more
Well they say they new one wiped out all those dinosaurs

But this is just talk, science fiction at best
Doomsday scenarios with all the best technical effects
Yet was this not read, in the Book of Life?
A star would fall from the heavens, destroying on third of all its inhabitants, one third of all human live

Destroying one third of all the fresh waters
Destroying one third of all plant and animal life
This planet Earth as we knew it
All this once created would lose its cohesion in just one plight

We had all been warned
For it had been written in the ancient texts
That Mother Earth would be smitten
By this evil from the black heavens on an unknown night

For the name was even given
Words of horror and grief
So much of this so called human kind
In but one day would now be deceased

Words of wisdom to start off this new year-2009

"The Lord our God, the Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might". -Deuteronomy 6:46,5

This is lesson #1. Everything else you will learn will bring you all back to this pure and simple truth.

"I am the Lord, that is My name; and My glory I will not give it to another".

-Isaiah 42:8

"look at Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other".

-Isaiah 45:22

The year of our Lord 2009

We all need to remember this year,this year of our Lord 2009 is a new beginning, a fresh start. Be as the child in this picture, this picture that is worth so many, many words.

Now is the time to believe as that of a child and have total faith and trust in our Father God and His Awesome Son The Christ, Jesus.

Pray to The Father that America will grow strong once again, and remain a Leader as this world needs us to be.

But you all must need to remember to say your prayers each and every day as well as night before you go to sleep. Thank God each and every day for all that He has given us, and to remember that even when times get rough, pray for Him to give you the courage to go on, to grow strong in your faith and fellow man. To give of yourself to help others and yes to make America even greater than before.

God Bless You my Children in Christ Jesus, love Carl

What is all this Buzz about 2012?

There has been all this on going talk concerning the Mayan calender and the end of this particular time for mankind. Not sure if it means the end of all mankind or just a particular faze of mankind?

I was just watching the History channel on TV and just heard that this particular date (2012) has significance in other cultures all around the earth, and just not The Mayan peoples alone as I first thought.

There is so much hype going around this. yet if people had read their Bibles a bit more often they would realize that this date has no possible (end of times) meaning attached to it. As you have read in this oh so Wonderful Book, called the Bible you would realize that when asked this Question in the Sermon on the Mount, that Jesus himself said that The Father only knew the time, when the time of man would end. Not even Jesus, the very Son of God knew this date. Only God knows and He is not talking.

Look all trough man's history and you will see hundreds of dates foretold of end times and mans destruction's of all that we know as man. Yet these dates have come and gone and the foolish are left red faced or at the worst as in James Town,were lay bodies of the dead. Followers of a Crazy man an his corrupt vision of what he saw as the end coming. He my have been a so called Bible Thump-er, but ask those that died that day if he was right, if his man made predictions were true, or in his case as in all cases before from delusional minds.

I believe in The Word of God, period. I do not get scared when dates are picked out as The Day the World will End. If the very Son of God tells us that only The Father knows the date, well then that is good for me, period.And just for the sack of those with short memories, remember The 2000 computer scare, an the end of the world as we would know it. Funny, how so many of us have forgotten that. God Bless You my children of the father God, love Carl

PS, remember we were told that there would be signs given of the end times. To read and understand that as a woman brings forth the birth of her child that as the birth pains grow closer in time that the great event Will so to be followed. When all the signs were mentioned and would happen one after the other and at the very end there would be no time in between, then this would be the very beginning of The Time of Great Sorrows, now to begin. Be prepared my children, read His Word.

On the Lighter side of Christmas-2008

Now is the time to get your family together and bring out several gallons of eggnog. Time to get the kids to quite down a bit, give the dogs a pet treat and settle into that special chair. Time to turn on the video and let yourself become part of the music you will hear. Have a merry Christmas my dear Friends, and please remember, i love you all and God Bless You, Love Carl-2008
