Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!  Wow its another Christmas, it seems like it gets more important to me every year. I think its because we are closer then ever  to seeing Jesus appear. Some don't believe He is coming back...but He said in His word that there would be scoffers. People don't believe since the beginning of time that He isn't coming. They say when is He , we still go on doing what we want, He is not coming. But He is...they will be drinking and making merry and then as a thief in the night, He will come. Luke 17:20-37
    Are you ready?  Because thats the way it will be,some will be getting married,some will be working,some will be in school and then suddenly............Jesus will appear!
    Be ready it can happen in the blink of an eye!! 2Thessalonians 2:1-17
 Have you noticed how people are these days, they are rushed, they are angry, they have no consideration for others. Fighting in their families,angry at someone for  something silly. It talks of these things in the word. Sad as it is, God will send strong delusion on the world. If you are not born again and strong in the word of God, then you could be part of this delusion. You must know the word  to be prepared for what is coming. Have you seen on rear view mirrors, things are closer then they appear? So you look and you see this car right on your bumper and yes he is closer then that. Thats how it is, Jesus is closer then you know...He is at the very door.....He is waiting on the Father to say, Son go get your children. He is ready, are you?  Don't wait another minute, if  you are not sure that you have a relationship with Jesus,then now is the time. Today is day of salvation! You don't no if you will have another minute to live.You think you do,but this could be the day your soul will be required of you.
  Now I will lead you in a simple prayer:
       Dear Father, I'am a sinner and I need your forgiveness, please forgive me from all that I have ever done. Cleanse me and make me whole, I want you to come into my life and live within me. Thank you for your love.amen
   Thats it,  you just need to ask Him and He will live with in you.It doesn't stop there though,you must read His word and He will guide you with everything.Pray to Him everyday about all your decisions, ask Him for help with everything.Nothing is to small or to big for Jesus.  He loves you and the angels will rejoice when you pray.
   One more thing,find a good church and they will help..no they aren't perfect either,they are people just like me and you,they will make mistakes,but always forgive.
  Please let me know if you  pray this prayer, I would like to pray for you or help in any way I can.
                God bless you as you go on this wonderful journey.  May He bless you in every way. This is my gift to you this year...Merry Christmas and God be with you.Jennifer

The home

My sis, What can I say about how wonderful she is? She has a heart of gold.She reminds me of her daddy, always wanting to help out where ever she is needed. Looking  as beautiful as her mommy. We had a wonderful time at her home yesterday and she fixed so many wonderful things to eat. We  got reaquainted with old friends and the house was decorated with beautiful things. It ws like stepping back in time.  We all used to live there at one time and the love everyone poured out on me when Gary and I first were married was so wonderful. I think I had my best Christmas  there at that house. The year I was pregnant with Chenoa, grandpa  Ivan came over that christmas morning excited. Wanted to see all of us.  The memories I have at that house just flooded me . We sure did have some great times there. The Tope family has always made me feel like I   belonged to all of them. The warmth and love from both sides of the family(Kerns an Topes)  I never new how loved you could feel from all. It hasn't always been easy for them either, but they continue to love anyone that comes through their door.   We all miss dad so much and wish he were here, but  he gets to spend Christmas with Jesus .How great is that!

     I just want to take a moment to thank everyone in the family for their love and support.Its been 31 years  in this family and its been wonderful to be with all of you.  I pray we will continue on having  wonderful times together and on into heaven. Julie, thank you so much for your love.

wonders

Just sitting here  looking out the window.Caught this cute little bird on the post.He was waiting his turn to eat. This is life, waiting for your next meal,waiting for next job,waiting to have a baby, waiting to live,waiting to die. Once I thought to myself,is this all there is to life...you are born, you live, you die? Is there anyting to this? Thats when I started searching to know if there is a God, a heaven,a hell? Once I started to seek Him, He then began revealing Him self to me.I searched Him out with a heart that was open to the truth of God.He found me,He saved me, the reality of that time was long ago.I know now that He is  real and He deserves all my praise.
I have been talking to some people on facebook about God. Most of them are atheists,and they have nothing nice to say about God.In fact they are down right nasty about God. I understand that they were where I was and not knowing if there really was a God, but I never can understand the nasty way they talk.Well I should the bible states that the whole world is under the lie of the devil. 2Corinthians4:3-4
They can't understand the things of God, nor can they spiritually discern it.  
1Corinthians 2:14
Its easy then  to see that they have a hard time. There are some though that are not mean spirited. Those are the ones I don't mind chatting with. I think that they are really searching, so they shouldn't call their self an atheist.  My prayer is they find God and know how wonderful He is. Its a dark world without God in it. I can't imagine going through this without Him. He is there for me every step of the way.Even when it feels like  I'm alone, I know He is ever present. Why? Because He said He would be and I believe Him. He loves me with love like no other.When I feel bad, He is there to help me through it.Thank You Father, for loving me, for saving me,for caring about me. Thank you for finding me when I was lost in a world of darkness.How wonderful will it be to live and worship you forever. The great IAM!  I love you Jennifer

Streams in the Desert by L.B. Cowman

There is an old story of an elderly man , who always carried a little can of oil with him everywhere he went, and when he would go through a door that squeaked, he would squirt a little oil on the hinges. If he encountered a gate that was hard to open, he would oil the latch.And so he went through life, lubricating all the difficult places, making it easier for those who came after him. People called the man eccentric,strange, and crazy, but he went steadily on, often refilling his can of oil when it was nearly empty, and oiling all the difficult places he found.
 In this world,there are many lives that creak and grate as they go about their daily work. Often it seems nothing goes right with them and that they need lubricating with "the oil of joy"(psalm 45:7), gentleness, or  thoughtfulness.
Do you carry your own can of oil with you?Are you ready with your oil of helpfulness each morning? If you offer your oil to the person nearest  you, it just might lubricate the entire day for him. Your oil of cheerfulness  will mean more then you know to someone that is downhearted. Or the oil may be a word of encouragement to a person that is full of despair. Never  fail to speak it, for our lives may touch others on the road of life, and then our paths may diverge, never to meet again.  The oil of kindness has worn the sharp, hard edges off many a sin-hardened  life and left it soft and pliable, ready to receive the  redeeming grace of our Savior. A pleasant word is a bright ray of sunshine to a saddened heart. Therefore give others the sunshine and tell Jesus the rest.

short one

Well this will be short.Had a wonderful thanksgiving and enjoyed all the company.I have people coming in bringing me good food.Their kindness is immeasurable.I have been blessed and feel like I'am getting Jesus exstension of His hands through these good people. I can't say enough of how much Gary and I both have been blessed. Thanks to all who have been coming in and thanks for the prayers.I know it is what gets me through. I met a young man at OSU clinic a month ago and I had written him.His name is Blake Haxton and he was a Upper Arlington student getting ready to graduate.He contracted a deadly flesh eating disease and almost lost his life.His legs had to be amputated.When I met him I introduced my self  him and told him I was praying for him.His response  was that is what keeps me going.What an inspiration under such sudden circumstances.Just like mine,but he chose not to be bitter but better.Praising God for his life.Know of a wonderful young man at my church who is another inspiration.He helps me to see past the things that get me down. I'm so blessed by Steven and he helps me when I see him at church.He takes each day and embraces it with Gods grace.I know that because he shines like the love of Christ. I'm greatful  know  him.I was blessed today by 2 more wonderful people today, Brenda and Billy, came and cleaned my house and she rubbed my feet.I have hard me excepting all the help, but without it ,I would have a hard time.So I'm so greatful to all. I hope to be able to give back someday.......
