I was talking to God one time and lamenting how I would like to share so many things he has shown me, but very often people just run away from me or act like I am freaking them out. He said to me “Don’t scare the little children.” ….. Now, I know when God speaks to my heart. I’ve been hearing him since the 90’s and he says what he wants, when he wants, and it’s always in perfect timing! So I pondered what he said, and I asked for clarification, for it seemed like a strange word at the time. I got to thinking how in my own walk, there were times what people would share with me flat “freaked me ..read more

Being Yoked (it’s no Joke) 2 Corn 6. Since I’ve been married for the better part of my life time, I’ve had plenty of time to ponder this passage about being “Equally Yoked” in Corinthians. In Matthew 11, Jesus also said “Take my yoke upon you.” Did you know in Deut 22 God commanded we don’t yoke an oxen and donkey together? Oxen are bigger and walk and function in a different manner. If they were yoked together, the Donkey would suffer great injury, and the oxen would be extremely frustrated. Donkey represents a different nature. And Oxen and a Donkey will never be able to successfully plow a ..read more

Hi Everyone! I just realized, I really should find a way to share videos I’ve been doing on Beauty from Ashes Ministries since November of 2021. It seems I have graduated to to that ministry, (for a time) until I can find more time to write here again. Beauty From Ashes has been gracious enough to share my books on the group as well. I will pray I can return soon and share more with you friends! Until then the Lord Bless and Keep you, and remember I am always available for prayer. You can write me at sisterzeal@yahoo.com. Peace and Blessings! https://beautyfromashesministries.com/laura-grace-b ..read more

Hi Everyone and Good Morning! HAPPY NEW YEAR! It’s 2022 now. 2020 was an interesting year. I remember the fear and the masks and the shut downs. I started a book in June of that year, and it’s completed now. I just finished it in December of 2021. Here is a little excerp from my book:     “What is it that makes us not feel like we are a success? Is it truly what other people say? Or is it something that we ourselves believe, deep down?      I think for me, not living up to my own expectations of myself is what ultimately makes me feel like a failure. &nb ..read more

Me in Sept 2021 I know, I haven’t been here in a long while. As I previously told you, we had a fire in our area on Dec 1, 2021. Our whole town was evacuated. No lives were lost. It was so eerie, driving out of town that day. The smoke was very thick, the wind was howling with gusts up to 70 mph. We didn’t know if we’d be able to get a motel. Our dog was in the car with us (Sadie) And she was wondering what was going on too. I remember being super calm for some reason, even though we knew our house could be lost. This picture is a bush right against our deck, with my grandkids playing in it ..read more

We had a fire last week in our little town of Denton. The blaze started November 1, during an unseasonably warm time, a long with a high wind event. A downed power line was determined to be the cause of the fire. At 1:30 PM on Dec 1 the town siren went off, and we were all evacuated. I remember just feeling calm but the smoke in the air and realization that our town might completely be gone was something I did not wish to ponder. We were gone for 2 days, and we didn’t know for at least 25 hours if our house was still intact. It turned out someone spotted a fire very near our house (under the d ..read more

The Secret Place: I have decided to do some excerps from the book “Living Safely in a dangerous world” by Mac Hammond Here is today’s excerp: “Psalm 91 is born of Moses’ personal experience with God the deliverer. Notice the first verse: He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Immediately, Moses tells us of a special place he calls “the secret place of the most High.” We’re told it is possible to “dwell” there. The Hebrew word translated “dwell” literally means “to stake a claim to” or “to remain.” The Secret Place of God is ..read more

My guest post is from John Garfield today. I met him years ago. and I was prophecied over that I would have to move (it’s in my book Grace to the Rescue) that there would be nothing I could do about it. And that is exactly what happened. I was forced to move and took my children to Minnesota, where I was eventually delivered from a very bad situation. Another “word” God gave me through this man was that I would be doing something creative that would bless my children somehow. I was very poor, living in housing, and I started a floral business, and also learned to do floral design through a com ..read more

Delicate Issues…..(Laura Grace Here) I want to address a few things on my heart today. First of all, We need (to pray) Christ is formed within us and KNOWING God is the most important thing we can ask for. Rick Renner suggests understanding our Salvation and knowing what our armour does for us (and what it is, biblically) is crucial. I am reading “Dressed to Kill” by Rick Renner. In Acts 19:15 it says “Acts 19:15 One day the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know about, but who are you?” The devil knows who I am, I can feel it when I pray and I know he has to flee ..read more

Me with my 8 pound-42 cup bag of Tutti Fruity Popcorn Aug 2021 Hi there! I haven’t written for awhile. I’ve had some real difficult struggles going on lately. My Mom who is 79 has been bed-ridden, having a hard hard time, and her husband has dementia. I work at a job 30 miles from home now, and between my Deli Job and caring for My Mom, plus my own life at home (which I am determined to keep up on) I have been busy! I still pray every day, ask to GROW and ask God to show me what he wants to teach me today! Anyway, My husband replaced his windshield less than a month ago (Over 200.00) and today ..read more
