Father of Lights movie review and giveaway :)

   I was recently sent this dvd for review and we watched it as a family. I must first say that I believe in miracles, have seen them all my life, including healing and even folks who were no longer breathing coming back to life. But I take the gospel seriously. You have no idea how serious it is until things get really serious and you really need Jesus. With that said, I like parts of this movie. I really liked the “anonymous guy” with his face blurred who went right when God said right and left when God said left. I have seen the Lord work that way before. There were other parts of the movie that I didn’t like so much. I don’t believe God’s gifts are toys for us to play with, and I don’t believe He is a sugar sweet God without the power to judge sin. Ultimately all that comes from Him and is used by Him, will bring Him Glory, not us. So while I did not agree with all of what was shown the movie showing it was pretty good. Make sense? I think that was the whole point, to show different aspects of ministry. So, ha ha, now I bet you really want to see it to know what in the world I am talking about, right???  Well you can win one here. I will keep this open until Nov 10th  Smile .

About Father of Lights

FATHER OF LIGHTS chronicles the journey of filmmaker Darren Wilson and his team as they fearlessly travel the globe, far from the daily existence of the typical evangelical believer in the West. By thoughtfully documenting the stories of extraordinary believers and candidly filming miracles, visions and other supernatural occurrences, Wilson engages viewers in modern day examples of the true nature and character of God. 

Wilson gives honest access to his own spiritual questions as he tackles the religious misconceptions he has struggled with throughout his life.  “I went into making this film by asking the simple question: who is God? I wanted to know His character, His personality, and who He truly is. To answer this question, we had to peel back the many layers of religious garbage that has been passed onto him through generations. That He is angry. Vengeful. Wrathful. And in general, that He doesn’t like you very much. The truth, as you will see vibrantly in this film, is that He is the most loving, compassionate, and wonderful Father you can imagine.”

MPM-Fall

Well how is your fall moving along? It has been beautiful here in middle TN. The colors were incredible this year and just to make sure we got the full effect we took a short trip to the Smoky Mountains to experience every bit of it Smile . The Lord was surely with us as it was the most beautiful week of the year. We stayed in a big cabin with extra family members and had a lovely big kitchen to cook in.  Our oldest daughter has always been a great cook but she really outdid herself in that cabin. The huge bag of fresh peppers from our garden gave her some added inspiration. She even spiced up the spaghetti sauce, never had it like that and it was wonderful. I say all that to say even plan your menu when on vacation, it adds to the fun.

This week we have a cold front and a lower grocery budget, but also some birthdays to celebrate, so planning will definitely be needed.

seasons of life

Be glad, people of Zion,
rejoice in the Lord your God,
for he has given you the autumn rains
because he is faithful.
He sends you abundant showers,
both autumn and spring rains, as before.

~ Joel 2:23

Why is it so much easier to embrace the seasons of nature than the seasons of life? Because we know the seasons of nature will change according to God’s schedule, and we know we must adapt, and find joy in them. The seasons of life can be just as enjoyable if we submit to God’s will Smile  not trying to change them according to our schedules instead of His.

be blessed on this incredibly beautiful day!

I will not leave you as orphans

woodduck25

I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

John 14:18

Awhile back one of the neighbors called and said someone had just brought them a box of brand new hatched ducklings, apparently something had happened top their momma, but the neighbor didn’t have a way to take care of them and asked if we would take them. One of my daughters regularly hatches ducks and other farm birds in her incubator so she figured no problem. These looked like common mallards but were really little. Well this guy is the only one who survived and he is not a common mallard. We didn’t know until he got full grown that he was a wood duck. Isn’t he adorable? The Lord went through many channels to get him to us, and what appeared to be an orphan was more well cared for than most wild ducks. If Jesus could see a purpose for this little duck, then how much more does He have a purpose for your life?

easy cheesy veggy soup, I hope :)

Took a 5 minute break in the midst of a tough tech upgrade to website I am working on to start supper. Got out the big crock pot and threw in a package of frozen broccoli, frozen green beans, a diced onion, 2 cloves of garlic that I put in the food processor with 6 peppers, (sweet and spicy) then chopped and added to the pot, with some red potatoes Mercy is dicing. Covered all of it with a gallon of fresh whole milk ( I love my cow) and added about 8 ounces of cream cheese cut into chunks. Turned it on high for 3 hours. I may or may not add some grated cheddar/jack. Hmmm… I will let you know how this turns out, smells pretty yummy so far.

Yep, it was yummy Smile
