God shall supply all your needs

Thank You Jesus Christ for Creating The Way of Your Word! I am so blessed and happy about my experiences with you. This morning I didn’t want to get up. I loved just laying there listening to the rain outside. Course I had already done the prayerline at 4am, and turned on my sprinklers for an hour too. I knew I had a bunch of fruit and hadn’t made my fruit salad yet. I finished the last of my veggie salad yesterday and knew I had to cook all morning.

I did bring down my books to read with my breakfast. I have a Monthly magazine from Intouch, so I read Charles Stanley Daily as shown at right here. I also always listen to his morning Podcast. Even on the weekends when theJoyFM.com is missing it. Yes, I already heard the episode this morning. After Exodus 90 lessons, I just gotta do Stanley, its a good habit now. I also have the new week in SEEL and the daily reading in the Consecration to St. Joseph

What is neat was that this Intouch reading was all about kids. Or what the kids need to see and understand in Jesus Christ. . . Which is really weird for me now to read and learn, since I simply lived it, and my kids saw it all the time: Psalm 24:1 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

I guess I still need to keep this in my heart as I move forward. Or I guess I DO, and just need to trust and accept this even when it’s a struggle or a challenge that I see before me.

What did the Consecration to St. Joseph bring to you?

I guess it’s more protection and peace. I know that has always been the place of the Father in the Family, to be the Provider and Protect the family. Here on Mother’s Day to read this piece really felt appropriate. I’ve accepted so much that happened with my own children. And I’ve been stunned again and again to learn how I was able to raise them in Christ. It’s just been a blessing for me to learn so much about my children, or find I was able to do things that are often recommended and encouraged for kids. Like I’ve shared here before. It’s really powerful to remember and experience what I’ve had.

What do you mean?

I guess, I’ve been in tears a few times reading and remembering things this week. I never really think about having children again but I certainly love the opportunity to teach and share with any kids I encounter. Like now Larry has his kids with him in my bunkroom.  They really seem to love the space. He said it was the first time they all spent the night together in years. I guess helping out a family is wonderful. But I’ve really not done anything special. . . 

What you have remembered and learned about your experience with your own children really should give you deeper insight to this current experience that you “discount.” Like when you read about the Ignatian Examen, and suddenly realized this was what you did nightly for nearly ten years. Of course, not completely since the first years did not include much discussion at all with the infants. But the experience you created by being with them each night allowed for this development. Similar to the “Savior of the Savior” piece you read about St Joseph. That power and focus provided by creating security and comfort has great implications beyond what is obvious.

I’m still stunned my son is not talking with Jesus all the time!

What makes you so sure he is not? He might be telling you this, but the passion and power he is finding inside has the same source. Just like the deceptions which he allows without confirming God by asking for the name Jesus Christ. These issues were the same challenges your mother had with you. She always knew you were protected and watched over, but then she also was careful to teach you key prayers and visualizations that brought through greater power in the Spirit.

I get it. I didn’t know you had so much to share today.

What about the rest of your readings this morning. Have you finished them all?

I still have to do the Ignatian reading with Week Eleven . . . lol, on May 11, at 3:07pm, where day one was Contemplation on the Incarnation. . . And now day two was a repetition. Considering how the trinity stepped into the Holy Family . . . Father Son and Holy Ghost embracing Joseph, Jesus and Mary. Seems really appropriate to consider this on Mother’s Day, especially with the Savior of the Savior readings. I’ve been pressed to trust and accept what’s before me. 

As part of this reading the question posed are about how this Divine Trinity sees the world now. And what do they dream. It’s really interesting to consider that now. I’ve recently written how I’ve always considered the gardens and development of Urban Agriculture in the local community as a new version of the Garden of Eden. Open and free, sharing all I produce and helping others to learn and grow their own. It really feels like an ideal to me. Helping people love and share with their neighbors. It’s really all that I’ve done since I’ve been here. . . I’ve even been able to teach others to grow their own and share in the harvest. 

Sure I’ve not produced enough to feed very many people. I let my arugula go to seed more than anything I ate. Now I’ve got hundreds of sweet little Everglades tomatoes growing everywhere. I’ve eaten dozens in salads and omelettes, but again feeding only myself and a few guests. I feel the model is sound. If I could get a dozen or more neighbors doing the same things we could feed ourselves. Or really just supplement our diets. The real food is important, but it’s only a small amount that could never off-set the tons of poisons we get from all the industrial foods we have. 

I saw some little clip last night about how the Queen of England only eats food she grows. They spoke about how most of the really wealthy never touch any of the commercial industrial foods. It’s obvious how much poisons are everywhere and to completely avoid it seems like common sense. I realize Japan is ultra careful about the foods they import and how much they limit everything to purely organic. 

What does this make you feel?

I really feel like I’m not doing very much at all. I was teaching people how to do it with the ABB guests, but I’ve had to stop this!

What about restarting the urban ag courses you wanted to do.

I know I could do more! I’m always pressed to do more everyday. I’m always perplexed that I’ve been able to get anything done as it always seems to be more and more every day.

What you learned about the experience with your children, exactly like Kim describing how you replaced your roof in Seminole Heights. . . Over one weekend, no quotes, no estimate, no comparison, just one neighbor helping another and it was done. And done in half the costs, in no time at all.  Yes, and Your children having such a divine experience that you really have no conception of. It was ever present and a continuous synchronicity. What they experienced each weekend with you was more divinity than most people see in their whole lifetimes. Yes, like the roof, you simply live in a space beyond what most people can understand. And like the experiences with your father, you have lived here all your life, so you do not even recognize that there is anything different than what everyone else sees and experiences.

I guess I need to stop second guessing myself and my impact on others. I always feel like I have no idea what I’m doing, but then I seen to always be doing things that are just remarkable. Like the Seminole Heights roof deal was just so far beyond normal practice, but I never even noticed. I mean, it wasn’t until Kim explained it all in detail that I had any idea what actually happened. I guess that’s what happened with Sharon and my Dad too, I only became conscious of the actually experiences and impact when someone took to time to explain it to me in detail. 

Which is why we always ask you to write everything. It forces you to consider what actually has happened and your direct experiences. The details and understanding still escapes you many times, but when you write these events you return and read and understand more all the time. It’s really about a transition and shifting the vibrations higher and higher. We have always tried and keep you informed about what is happening and you understand to a certain point. But this is always hanging too.

I Love You Dearest Loving Lord Jesus Christ.
