When will Jesus return?

  • I took a picture of this painting in The Vatican City; Actually in St. Peter's Cathedral.  When Jesus left this earth, Moses and Elijah met him in the air. Wow, could you imagine being there? Knowing Robbie and I, we would have tried to take a ride on Jesus' robe- crying, " Your not leaving without me!!!" Kinda funny, but I think that the disciples thought that Jesus would..... be right back. Before Jesus left his disciples, he told them that he had to leave- to prepare a place for them in heaven. And that he'd return soon. Every since that day Christians have been waiting. What are you doing while you wait? Are you storing up treasures in heaven? Or are you moaning and groaning about how hard this life is? This life is hard, but everything that we go through is preparing us for God's purpose.
  • I have a question for you..... If you knew the exact day, exact hour, and the exact minute that Gabriel would blow his trumpet and Jesus would meet us in the air, what would you being doing different? I am a fly by the seat of my pants girl. I am usually late, and out of breath when I get there. But if I knew that Jesus was calling his children home next Tuesday at 1059 pm, would I be ready, all  my ducks in order waiting for  him, or would I wait til next Tuesday at 1055 to get on my knees and beg for mercy? In his word, Jesus assures us that he will return for us. But to be ready, cause we do not know the day or hour. We are suppose to use our time on earth living for Jesus, living like Jesus, and planting seeds for Jesus. Start today. Time is running out. Live everyday like Jesus is returning that day. I know that you'll be ready and others will see Jesus in you and want what you have.
  • Get ready Jesus is coming soon!!!!!!!

PEACE......................

This is what quiets my soul from the craziness of this world....
I love for the clouds to open up with snow falling down all around me. That's when it feels like peace has shown its face. 
 I love to walk outside early in the morning before anyone is awake.  Before the craziness of life begins.   The stillness is intoxicating to me. The crispness of the air refreshing. The whiteness of the snow makes me think of God's Grace...  because of Jesus we are washed in the blood to be made as white as snow..  
I want to walk  slowly to this place of peace that was purchased by God's blood and by His body.....I want to stay there and not return to the real world... I have imagined a bridge that runs from God's world (super-natural) to the human world...If we stay to long on either side of the bridge we would be unproductive for God. There has to be a balance.   He has placed us here for such a time as this. We are that dot on the kingdom calendar...
 Peace is not a feeling it is a mindset... It was preached about and it was bought with a price......
Read: Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”
Don't you want to know Him like that.. The Prince of Peace...
that serenity, tranquility, that freedom from our minds of all distractions.....that stillness with silence that only He our King can give....
 Praying for your lives to be surrounded with a fire wall of His peace...

I know that the second picture is hard to look at, but this is my second son, Joshua. In the second picture he was 6 years old. It was New Year's Eve, he was burned from a fire pit we had in the backyard roasting marsh mellows. The angel behind him was given to us by my mother in law, cause God was definitely looking out for him that night. After he was burned I was a mess, but never that night did I stop realizing that it could have been much worse. I thanked God over and over that he spared my son. God is good and what we go through in this life only makes us stronger for his kingdom. The first picture is Josh now at 9, playing football. His skin is perfect, not even one scar. You know that night was a nightmare, but the two people we had over was a fireman and a paramedic. I'm a nurse, but was worthless that night. Those friends helped put out the fire that kept Josh from being burned more severely. Remember to thank God for the miracles in our lives and pray for the safety of our families. God is in control. Pray for God to guide us daily and a better understanding of what we have to go through, so that we can be an example for others.
Blessings,
Amy

SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE..............................


At one time or another most of us have felt our lives are too busy.... We wear to many hats as moms, wives, aunts, grandmothers, sisters, etc.....

NOTHING IS BETTER THAN SIMPLICITY......

Most stressed out people can't live their life in the moment... They hold off being happy... They believe joy, contentment, and satisfaction, and peace only come once certain conditions are met......
They say: "I will be happy when.............
If you feel this way I want you to stop and close your eyes for 5 seconds and take a deep breath and realize that in that present moment, there is no stress.....
How often do we forget the present moment? How often are we somewhere.....and yet someplace else in our thoughts?  
One of the most powerful sanity secrets is to be fully present and attentive to the situation you're in....
Enjoy the moment your in....
be still and enjoy the peace that God purchased for you with His blood and His body....
In His peace,
Robbie

Relationships with our Lord

As I sat in church last Sunday waiting for the service to start, I begin to "people watch".


I watched as a beautiful young girl walked in and sat in the row in front of me. She was by herself and she sat there looking forward. The music started and I was quickly moved by the Spirit. I could feel him all around me. Everyone around me stood as we sang praises to our Lord. The girl in front of me just sat there as everyone around her stood. I of course was still enjoying the music, but was also wondering what was going on in her life. Was she sad, or going though something difficult. As the service continued everyone sat as a soloist started singing about the women who was considered unworthy to be around Jesus, much less touch the back of his garment. The girl in front of me jumped to her feet, stretched out her hands towards heaven and sang to the Lord. I was kind of blown away. I caught myself with a ugly cry face, as I licked my lips so that my mouth would close. WOW, I thought, something in that song touched her. During that song it was her and her Lord. She didn't care what anyone around her thought. Everyone has a different relationship with Jesus. That is one of the reasons that I want to know more about him. Sometimes when I talk to him, I feel him sitting right there, and other times I feel that he doesn't hear me. I talk to him day and night. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night. I am soooo tired, but I feel that Jesus wants my company. I beg him to please let me go back to sleep. Can you even imagine how much he desires a relationship with us. We pray to communicate with him and we read his word to hear from him. After the song, the beautiful young girl sat down, opened up her bible and, what I felt her doing,
was laying her problems at the cross. We all face hardships and sadness, that is apart of life until we are called home. Lay your burdens at the cross and keep your eyes on Jesus.

Next Generation.......

We are called to influence the next generation.....
We are called to have spiritual children...
Did you know that we are supposed to be praying for our children's children's children?
We should be praying for them to be mighty warriors for God and praying also for their future marriages. Praying also that their faith comes to them at an early age. Praying for future pastors to come from the generations after us.
Our Faith is supposed to extend over to future generations... Isn't that amazing? Who are you going to pass your spiritual baton too?
This made me wonder today if anyone before me prayed for me? Something deep inside of me tells me "YES" they did. My great-grandmother's name was Talitha. My mom shared with me what a godly woman she was. I can't help but think that she prayed for the generations behind her (which would include me).
Praise God today for someone that could have prayed for you although they never got to see their Harvest.... God wants to stir us to do something for the up and coming generations. God is LORD OVER ALL GENERATIONS....
This holiday season I want to start with our own tradtions that can be handed down to my future generations. I will need your help on this because I do not have any tradtions that have been handed down.....
I need you to share some of your traditions!!! PLEASE POST...them. Take a risk and share!!! I don't think the Yahweh blog has had a comment in years....lol If there is something wrong with the blogging site and it want let you post please email us and let us know at yahwehsistersministries@yahoo.com
God bless you and your family during this holiday season. Let us not forget to pray for our future generations!
Robbie, Amy, and Jen

Uncle Mac


This is " Uncle Mac"- my husband's great uncle. My husband, Rob went to Atlanta to spend his summers with Uncle Mac and Aunt Cindy. Rob and I started dating when I was 17, this wonderful couple was two of the first people that I met in his family. I was immediately considered part of their family and I fell in love with them. Most important- they love Jesus. This shows by the way they live their life. Aunt Cindy died over a year ago. Even though Uncle Mac was so sad, he remained true to fact that God is good and that he would never leave us nor forsake us. Every night he would go to the cemetery, where she was buried, walk and pray. He told us about one night in particular, one that he felt like he couldn't take the sadness anymore. He cried out to Jehovah-Shalom- the giver of peace( Judges 6:24) He needed peace and comfort. He had not even said Amen when a car pulled up to him and told him not to be afraid, but that as he, the man in the car, drove by the cemetery the Holy Spirit told him to pull into the cemetery and tell that man, Uncle Mac, that Jesus loves him. WOW... that was all Uncle Mac needed, to be reminded that God will never, has never, or ever will leave him. Uncle Mac is still sad, but now able to move on. To enjoy this life for what it is worth, and most importantly he is storing up treasures in heaven.
Who is a witness to you? Who are you witnessing to today? Our life is a testimony!!!!! Please do not waste time. You do not have to be a crazy person screaming Jesus Saves. But people do watch the way we live. Lets show someone today, the love of Jesus!!!!!!!
