He is King of kings, LORD of lords, His name is JESUS and HE is the Lion of Judah. The Word of God declares that Satan goes about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, but JESUS is the Lion of Judah, who guards and protects, who rules, who loves, who does not seek to devour but seek to save. You see, Satan is a non-creative being. He can only mimic or mock what God does and if he does that it will be in a most perverse and disgusting, negative way. Look at this painting of a lion that I retrieved from Facebook, which is available for download. You can just see Jesus, can't you. I have to admit that there has always been something about lions that I have loved, not until most recently has that truly begun to hit home as I have began to gain a greater understanding of just who Jesus is and what His grace is all about. Now, I don't know all there is to know but each day He shows and teaches me a bit more. Praise Jesus! I guess you could say that it is time for us all to make a decision - Are we going to be prey for the "Look-a-like lion," or are we going to be the little children that lay down with the lion and the lamb, "The Lion of Judah." Now, I hate to borrow from Coke-a-Cola, especially being a devout Pepsi drinker but "There ain't nothing like the real thing." Hallelujah!

R. I. P. Max'a Million, We love ya and will miss you most dearly.

R.I.P. Max'a Million, my kitty became sick all of the sudden on Saturday, was taken to the Vet's Monday morning and was put to sleep Monday afternoon at 4:30pm. The Vet had done tests on him that afternoon and found out that he had cancer, a tumor that was blocking function in his abdomen, liver, etc. We will miss him greatly. We love ya' Max. :)

"Hosanna, Hosanna, Blessed is He Who Comes in the Name of the Lord."

Hello everyone, I know it has been sometime since I have written but as is typical of life, it happens while you are making other plans. Today I recently found out that my cat may possibly have cancer and I will know more after the Vet does some tests.  So, please pray for my kitty, Max.  Among many other things, this was something out of the blue with no warning indicators, at least none that we knew were warning indicators.  I also have been running back and forth to various doctor's appointments,  Life is nothing if not interesting, :)  
And of course, the Easter Season is upon us and it is a time, for most Christians, for deep reflection and celebration.  Over 2000 years ago, Jesus Christ, God in the form of man, willing went to the cross and died for our sins, "No greater love hath any man...," and then three days later, His father, Our God, raised Him to life, in order that we too may be raised to life in Him.  Easter is more than bunnies and candy, more than chicks and jelly beans, it is the very reason for our existence.  "We live and move and have our being in Christ."  

So as you sit in the newness of Spring and think about your life and the fresh starts and new beginnings ahead, remember who it is that gives you those fresh starts and new beginnings, Jesus Christ. 
So, lift your voices high, and cry aloud, "Hosanna, Hosanna, Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord." No matter the struggles in life that you may be facing right now or how alone you might be because of them, remember that He is always with you for upon His birth the angel of the Lord appeared to Mary and told Mary that she would have a son and His name would be Emmanuel, which means "God with us."  Christ promised us that He would never leave us nor forsake us, and He is not a God that He should lie or act contrary to His Word.
"Hosanna, Hosanna, Blessed is He Who Comes In the Name of the Lord."
