Battle Lines



Once Mighty man of God Yielding Shield and Sword
You were one mighty warror of God
Showing others the way
Standing on His Word!



And then



Your crossed the battle line
You dropped your sword and shield
You looked back one final time,
and walked across the field.



Now you live your life as you want to
making your own decisons
Doing as you want to do
Whom were once your oponents are now your friends.



How far are you going to go?
Time is no longer moving slow
Lives are fading fast
Will the next breath be your last?



Who will you cry out to
when the darkness closes in
Are you going to choose to stay in sin,
or in Christ's blood be washed new?



Come back across the battle line
Your sword is still waiting for you.
Many lives yet to be saved..but we're waisting precious time!
Warriors like you are very few..



Please..come back!

I am a MARRIED stay at home mom, graphic artist, web designer. I love the Lord Jesus Christ with all my heart and all my soul. I love my husband and family more then words can even express.

Destructions Door

She traveled down this road before she knew there was nothing at the end.
Yet she took the steps to destructions door left her with another broken heart to mend.
If you listen close you can hear her cry crying for the Lord to save her just a friend like you and I,
broken at destructions door.


She grew up in a Christian home with a loving mom and dad
they never left her alone praying daily, heart broken and sad.
Tears stream down her face, as the Lord lifts her with His grace,
far away from Destructions door loveing her as she is. .even more.


Now if you listen close,
she is praising The Lord!
Lifting her hands towards Heaven,
talking of God's love and spreading his word, for all of her sins are forgiven!

I will not ever share my full testimony because I feel the devil can truly handicap us with our past. We all have a past full of mistakes. Often I see Christians sharing testimonies and I am amazed how many share them to see who was the worst. So what I will share with you is this.

I am not perfect.. I know..a shock to me also!!!
I accepted Christ as a young child. I was 5 years old. I was blessed with the most wonderful Christian family that saw to it that I attended Christian School. (Tennessee Temple Acad.) Now, I grumbled about it when I was younger, I mean everyone I knew attended public school but me. I see now how that helped to form and shape me into the person I am today.

Growing up under the leadership of Dr. Lee Roberson is a experience I will never forget. He was truly a man so truly surrendered to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Shortly after High School, I let sin come into my life. As a result..I made many mistakes. But..I have been forgiven of those mistakes and for those sins.

Parents if you have a child that has walked away from the Lord..stay on your knees in prayers.. they will come around.

To all others.. know..God still loves you..no matter those mistakes..or those sins you have commited. Surrender to Him.. it is much better then running away from Him.

This poem says it all about my past... Never let the past ruin your future.. use it to go on to help others. Remember, His Word will never return void.. plant those seeds!

The White Rose

Pieces of the past
lay at my feet
Like shattered glass
I try to arrange them all nice and neat

And then,
I get cut.

I quickly call on the only one for me,
The one who calmed the sea,
Only he can arrange the pieces for me
Into a thing of beauty, you see?

Slowly the pieces fade away,
The darkness turns to day,
Up arises a thing of great beauty,
A rose that Jesus hands to me.

As I look at the Rose,
I see there are no thorns,
I hold it to my nose,

And I smell,
Aroma unmistakably one no one has ever worn,
A beauty beyond compare,
A delicate rose, white and fair.


You see,
Out of the pain of the past
If you let God take over,
Something of Beauty will arise that will last,
Forever, just as it did for me!

I love teaching others about Internet Safety..Never give out those personal details that you dont need to give.
Never give out your email address outside the blog.. and always caution.. the internet world has sadly become a very dangerous place. Always use caution.
Phishers beware... I know how to spot you..I know how to turn you in.. count this as your only warning.

I hate the Devil..Despise him.. Despise Sin.
I dislike Spam.. in a can..and in my mailbox.
I dislike watered down Preaching, and watered down spirituality..Either you are for God or against God..be lukewarm.. he will spew you out.

I dislike Gossip, I dislike backbiting..putting others down. I think we as Christians need to stick together despite denominations and win souls.. I mean really, you dont want to go to war with a Child of God.

I dislike men to flirt with me. I am a married woman.

I dislike denomination fighting.. HELLO while Christians fight amongst themselves.. the Devil wins by default..bout time we get it together and fight this war together!!!
