Only what's done for Christ will last."

Monday Starts

 It's morning, and I'm waiting for a hornet exterminator to arrive. The huge ball of paperish material is hanging outside our front door, and needs removal before our day in October when we hope to have a memorial for my husband. 

I don't want to risk anyone getting stung by angry hornets. 



Can you see the sun shining on the ball of bald-faced hornets?


We all have enough to worry about these days without that, too.

A thunderstorm moved through this morning, and now the sun is drying the grass. It promises to be a gorgeous Minnesota day, cool and bright. 


My heart is still hurting. Some days I think I'm going to have a heart attack myself, I wonder about the symptoms I am experiencing, chalking them up to deep stress mostly. 

I've asked my friend to pray for my heart, which seems to be beating heavily, and I have definitely seen answered prayer. Since the night after Brian died I have had an unusual heartbeat. I know shock and grief can have a profound effect, so I am monitoring these symptoms. I still feel "numb." 

The other night while attending class up at my university I sat listening to lecture with pounding heart---something I just never noticed before. This seems to be my new reality.

When I exercise it seems no worse, so I just believe this is my new norm. Toxins? Stress? All, probably. This is grief. 

I wake up in the morning and I still startle at my new reality. Brian isn't here. 

How does one get used to something so profound after 30 years? He was my partner, he was my friend and lover. How do I face the new days?

Yes, I have the LORD, but how do I turn on the furnace?


My classes have started, and I'm impressed with one of my professors. The other one needs prayer in a deep way, his foul language during 3 hours of lecture made me wonder if he was intoxicated. 

Such is the state of higher education these days. 

The world is a mess, but we already knew that. Globalists think they've got the answers, but they don't, and WE DO. Jesus is the answer. Trying to do human life without Him is like bandaging a festering sore.


One main thing I am voting for Trump for is his stated dislike for globalism and his stated patriotism. He may be Antichrist, but I'm voting against a known evil: global Marxism. Trump is a human, like Cyrus the Great, with moral failings and deep conflicts, but I vote against a known evil: atheistic socialism. 

I know that the evangelical church has been driven toward apostasy by the "cool kids" who toy with Biblical inerrancy and subscribe to "Higher Criticism" and the Frankfurt School, all born of Marxism. 


We have the time now to stay the course of globalism. It's coming, but we can try to hold it off. Trump may want a New World Order and he may be privy to the inevitable Antichrist kingdom that IS coming, but we must do what is most morally sound as citizens of our great country. Voting against humanistic philosophies is our spiritual obligation. 

Socialism is absolutely immoral.

"Social Justice" is a moniker for socialism, and it has quietly infiltrated each and every system of education, including those we once held up as bastions of evangelicalism.

We're all "cool kids" in love with "social justice" now. 

When you qualify any thing like the word justice you must start asking questions. 

Go deeper. 

Be aware. 

Where did these insidious philosophies begin? 

-----In rebellion against the God of the Bible. 


You see that God, the Creator who is described in Scripture, the one who defines Himself as just, love, merciful, all-knowing, all-powerful, sacrificial, omnipresent, creative, all-sufficient------that God is not welcome in Satan's worldly kingdom. 

So Satan slithers into the places that once held to Biblical Truth and he questions them, just like he did to Eve. "God really can't be like that-----"

And so begins the doubt of agnosticism, rebellion, and humanistic philosophy.


Yes, that IS the truth. Cut and dry, laid out, clear for all to see. God's truths are as simple as the two-year-old can fathom (JESUS LOVES ME) and as complex beyond ALL human understanding. He reveals Himself to each of us. 

He has revealed Himself to me, and He will reveal Himself to you if you're willing to humble yourself before Him (unlike Satan.) 


Pride is the king of the seven deadly sins, and the one that keeps God at bay in every human heart. 

It's the one I saw in my profane and foul professor the other night. 


Insidious. 

It's the one I see in the thinkers of this age, so in love with the workings of their own minds and understanding that they pridefully judge the God of the Bible and His character to be less than their own brain cell activity. 

It's the human heart, the sickness of soul. It's in everyone, so it's truly common. It takes an act of the Holy Spirit to humble hearts and bring about true conversion. 

But you must be willing.


Prophecy watchers know that time is short. These days are exciting! WE are the generation that is seeing the fulfillment of Scripture! 

Are you ready, Bride? 


The Bridegroom comes! 

MARANATHA!!!!

Updates and Thoughts

 If you have been a reader of Corgi Hollows for any time (and I've been "blogging" for quite some time now) you probably know where I stand politically and spiritually.

Every once in awhile I sense a shift in the earth's foundation, and 2020 is that shift in so many ways. Naturally for me, God took my husband home to be with Him, unexpectedly, and COVID-19 has had multiple repercussions in all of our lives. 

This is an election year, and things are heating up with the political conventions going on right now: Joe Biden's dementia is on full display, Marxist Harris is the upcoming world leader, and Trump continues to amaze despite his blunders.

We're all being played.

God is in control. How often do we need this reminder? I need it every hour. 

Though Satan should buffet---(*It is Well With My Soul)--and he and his minions DO buffet (oppress, attack, pierce) I am strongly anchored in my faith in the God of Scripture.

If your God isn't the God of the Bible you are buffeted, and you will perish.


Let's talk about Trump. I am solidly with Wayne Grudem on Trump. I love his policies, I pray for the man, I don't understand the far-reaching implications. Is he anti-Christ? I don't know. I can only vote pro-life, pro-Israel, and pro-conservative policies.

Those are his hallmarks right now. 

I am anti-communist, and if I don't vote for Trump I tacitly allow communism to seep into America, the country I love and have given up years of my relationships and life for. I am a patriot. I think Donald Trump is a patriot, too.

Are the Freemasons and the Illuminati all a part of the Founding Fathers and their ilk? Of course. Just read a little history and you'll be informed. Is Trump a part of that cabal? I still don't know. I read a lot, but I'm not convinced either way yet.

God is working out His master plan and America is running pell-mell toward destruction.

IF YOU DON'T VOTE FOR TRUMP YOU ARE VOTING FOR DESTRUCTION VIA MARXISM. You will be accountable. 

God will hold everyone accountable.

Don't let fear of the Marxists in power control you. They are in power (especially in my state, in our colleges and universities, and especially in our churches and seminaries!). IF you are being driven into a debate about race you are being driven into Marxist indoctrination.

Don't buy it. Don't imbibe on the Marxist buffet. 

Race. God made one race: HUMAN. I like what Ken Ham says at the Creation Museum and the Ark. We are all made up of the same DNA. The melanin in our skin should never separate us, divide us, or define us. Race and class is a satanic and human construct. Don't buy the leftist indoctrination on race issues. The left foments these issues to attack truth from God. Just ignore it and LOVE everyone. Remember what Paul says: there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female in Christ! WE ARE ALL THE SAME!

Making race THE issue is a tactic of the left to divide and conquer. 

And we will be conquered, unless Christ chooses to come and get us first. Are you prepared to meet your death at the guillotine? Are you prepared to have your house burned down by the Marxists of Black Lives Matter? 

Are you prepared? 

Because we have passed the point of no return and that is coming.

Ed and I discussed the spiritual blindness of our culture this morning at length. We can see the humanistic thought that has pervaded our churches and our culture. The moral compass has been smashed. We operate on feelings and whims as a nation, as churches, as families. 

When you throw out the Bible you throw out the moral compass. 

So how many of you actually believe that God's word is inerrant, inspired, and for today?

I can wager that there are few of us left in this age. The leftist seminaries took care of that. The "Higher Criticism" fomented by the Jesuits within our bastions of education destroyed the foundations of our belief in Scripture. 

Interesting, isn't it? We are watching the fruit of Jesuit infiltration in all of our institutions. 

Economics, education, religion, politics, culture. The Roman Catholic Jesuitical influence has been extreme and comprehensive. Marxist ideas are hand in glove with the Jesuit oath.

My heart breaks for our nation, the loss of its moral compass, and its inevitable demise.

But I'm a prophecy watcher, and these things must come to pass. 


I'm looking for the King of kings. I'm waiting for the bridegroom. I'm looking for our blessed hope. I am not discouraged, I am thrilled to see that our time here is short and soon to end. 


Maranatha, Lord Jesus Christ! 

AMEN

Reset is the theme

reset (youtube video)

Letter to an Anti-Trump Christian Friend | The Stream

Letter to an Anti-Trump Christian Friend | The Stream: This article is based on actual letter. The recipient’s name and some minor details have been changed.

Re-set

 The foundation of my earthly life was washed away with my husband's death. Thankfully I am still standing on a bedrock of faith in Jesus Christ and I see His care every single day.

Each day is full of business matters, clearing up old accounts, organizing, resetting.

I feel like I am doing a massive reset out of necessity, but also because it's a great distraction to grief and all of the pressures that my husband once handled.

My "staff" has moved on. It's only Ed and Cheri at home with me now. Corwyn and the cats (the three: Gandalf, Topaz, and Predicate) are our comforters and our distractions. Caring for ourselves takes up much time.

Margaret is back in New Hampshire. 

Quite frankly I'm checked out of politics for now. My usual interests have no appeal these days. I'm simply trying to swim in a sea of grief, distractions, and decisions. 

When death comes with no warning there are implications. It's extremely difficult to know all of the facts and business matters, all of a person's responsibilities. I'm finding out my husband's huge footprint. It's far greater than even I, his wife, imagined. He had so many interests and abilities. 

Trying to figure out his tools and projects was daunting. 

Thankful for dear friends who assisted. 

I haven't even finished writing thank you notes. I haven't had time to respond to each of you that have called, left messages, written notes. 

I'm resetting.

It's very time consuming, very tiring, very difficult.

Again, I ask for your understanding and your prayers.


Here's some of our "reset" that I can share with you. Plans must be made, even when you desire to curl up under the covers and suck your thumb. I'm living still. I must go on. 


School (college) starts in a week for me and Cheri. I'm taking two classes, Cheri has a full load. Ed starts in September, also with a full load. We are all working our part-time jobs as possible.

I am turning Brian's and my old bedroom into a guest suite. 

I look forward to hosting you.

Corgi Hollows is becoming a Home-School Consultant Resource. I'm going through curriculum and purging, also gifting to young moms who are just starting the journey. 

We have planned a day in October to have our annual History Day and to celebrate the life of my husband. 

Brian's birthday was in October, and he loved having bonfires and enjoying the setting of Corgi Hollows. This past spring he worked from home, and several times he told people how much he loved to look out at the green surroundings of our home from his desk. 


So, October 10 we are going to do Corgi Hollows History Day, with special celebration of his life.

Come around noon. We'll have the fire going (or it will be inside if raining). We'll have hot dogs and S'mores here for everyone. At two o'clock we'll plan to have a brief service of blessing and memories. 

Come in costume as a historical figure. Be prepared to tell someone about your character, just a few interesting facts. 

We'll have hot drinks and water. I'd like to have a couple of you with a table of things you'd like to peddle, sort of like a fair, so please let me know if you'd like to have a space. 

I will never forget Covid-19 and its implications for my life, the life of my husband, his death, and all of our friendships and relationships. It's been stunning. My husband passed away from a heart attack, but death during this "pandemic" has been, of course, an effect on all of this life experience. 

We are all changed. 

This day in October is a small way to cling to what was once "normal" for Corgi Hollows. 

"Normal is just a setting on your dryer," Brian liked to say. 

Our family was never normal, whatever that really means. That's okay. It's okay to be different. 


I'm taking inventory of snow shovels, snow tires, and winter things. I have to. Minnesota winter in the country is nothing to sneeze at. Brian was prepping all year. The tasks fall to me now. 


I'm dragging my feet, (kicking and screaming!) but I'm trying to fill his shoes. 

Survival-mode has been my theme for the last seven weeks. I'm thinking it may go on for some time. 


MARANATHA!

Covid Crisis

Something is on my mind this past week. Along with my general mourning for my husband (which doesn't seem to get any easier with time) I'm mourning the crisis created by this "pandemic."

I am one of those crazy believers in the doctors and epidemiologists who advocate a hydroxychloroquine cure (with zinc and zythromycin). I believe these doctors, and I do not believe the mainstream narrative that is being shoveled down the throats of non-discerning sheeple.

The mainstream has an agenda, and so do I. 

I believe that they are pushing toward a New World Order any way that they can, and this Covid Crisis is just their cup of tea. 

My agenda is to watch for Bible Prophecy being fulfilled.

Things fit together really well when you are looking.

But this manufactured crisis (with 99.98 global survival rate) is creating an unasked-for side effect. 

I'm seeing people I know and love bow to the fear peddled by the NWO media/narrative. I'm seeing my state (and its Communist governor) dictate useless and ludicrous dictates (masks do not keep viruses out) and ruin the livelihoods of many citizens who live here. Businesses and restaurants are closing all around me. For good. Wow. 

I haven't seen some of my family members for weeks, even through family crisis and desperate loss. 

I've lost friends.

People seem to be driven by fear for themselves, for elderly loved ones, for someone vulnerable---
when there is a cure for this corona virus sitting on the shelves of pharmacies everywhere. Not a vaccine, medicine.
 
But the vaccine peddlers want to keep you in the dark about it. If you believe the NWO narrative you will believe that only a vaccine will let life return to normal. 

It's a lie from hell, but it seems to have many people convinced. 

One thing I loved about America is that you could get several medical opinions when you got an illness or medical issue. 

It seems that few care about different opinions these days. 

Swallowing the fear medicine of the mainstream media is the prescription. 

Did these dear ones forget that we all have an appointed time to die? We all cannot change one minute of our lives, shorter or longer. Our appointment is made by the Sovereign Creator of the universe, and nothing changes it. Nothing. It is appointed unto man once to die, and after that the judgment. Our days are appointed, and we must live the appointed days.

Can God use Covid to end your days? Yes. If that is your appointment.
Can God save you past Covid? Yes. He is able to save. He can save anyone from death. 

Can God let you have a heart attack when you're only 57? Yes. He can. That may be your appointment. Appointed days are up to God, not you.

Dear ones seem to forget this. They are marching blindly toward the NWO and its dictates by lemming-like behavior, unquestioning, unsearching, simply listening and obeying.

It makes my heart ache, and I can't handle much more grief these days. Perhaps my appointment is soon and I'm going to die of grief. 

It could happen. God's will is far beyond mine. 

Is God good? Not always how I see "good." God IS good. 

He defines good. He defines love. 

He made me and appointed my days. I live at His mercy, with His promises, with His provision. 


Can you control a single minute of the future?

No. 

Stop worrying, dear ones. God is in control. 

Come away, my loves, and seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness----

All these things will be added unto you! Good things! 


At his right hand are pleasures evermore. Those who love HIM will see HIM and rejoice. 

Rejoice in the LORD always, and again I say rejoice. 


I am not happy about the loss of my husband, my family, nor my friends. I see it as collateral damage in a fallen world. 

I will rejoice in my future hope, my blessed hope.

Maranatha!

Watch
