Things like, if the gate is closed when you go through, close it again. Or, don't be messing with the bull. Or, make sure when you throw trash away you don't cap ketchup bottles because when you burn trash, they will explode. Or, make sure you take a big stick with you when you go to collect eggs because of that stinkin' big Rhode Island Red rooster......
One learns quickly on the farm because you can get hurt pretty badly. It is a shame more people did not have the chance to grow up on the farm because we all need to know parameters. Boundaries are good things. And it is odd how we love to push those boundaries! Those boundaries keep us safe!
One of the programs I listen to on the weekend is from Understanding the Times Radio, the radio ministry of Jan Markell of Olive Tree Views. I really like having a Christian perspective to the news of the world, because face it........The news these days is flippin' SCARY.
I was not able to listen to her program last week and so today, I listened to two programs, this weeks and last weeks. Wouldn't you know it, last weeks was REALLY interesting and I am SO glad I got to listen to it!
Once or twice a year or so, Jan does a "Paranormal update" because the world is seeing a huge rise in the acceptance of things we ought not to be messing with. Now I know that many people right here are going to have a cow because of that last statement, but you need to understand that I come from a Biblical perspective and I do my best to follow the precepts that are in God's Word. It isn't always easy, but I committed and I do my level best to live what I profess. With that being said, if you have any questions because I am not explaining myself clearly enough, please feel free to listen to the program yourself.

In this program there are several references to the infamous 'Ouija Board'. I think we all have had experience with one of these, whether we got that experience at a slumber party or got a board for our birthday, the fact remains that we all know what it is. I HATE those things. I have seen more damage come from that seemingly innocuous 'toy' than I would ever care to relate. All I can do is warn you..........it isn't a game. IT IS NOT A GAME. It is a link to a world you don't want to be involved with. It is false power and power that is out to destroy you. To captivate and annihilate you. Literally. If you doubt my word, ask the dang thing a question that begins with, "In the name of Jesus". Demons have to submit to the name of Jesus.
People are hurting these days. Things are so violent and messed up in this world that people will grab at any straw of hope and unfortunately if you have a lack of faith, you can search for that thing which will fill the void in your heart and it will be something that doesn't love you, but HATES you and wants you dead. Don't believe those lies. Don't believe that you are worthless. Lift up your head to the Heavens.
There is One Who loves you. And He isn't found in a board. He is calling your name, gently and lovingly. He loves you so much that He was willing to give His life for you, be the sacrifice for anything and everything wrong you have ever done or will do in the future. He loves you so much that He could not imagine EVER living life without you and so He sacrificed Himself in your place, so that you could enter Heaven as a clean and spotless person and face a righteous and holy God.
You can talk to Him anytime you want. No need to make an appointment. No need to wait in any lines. He is there. Right next to you. Just for you. Let that pride fall away. Call on Him. And let Him love you and change your life. That walk isn't going to be easy, but rest assured that He will never leave you. He will never forsake you. Whatever you face, He will be there through it all and hold you close. He gives you life. An amazing and extraordinary life!
Don't let someone else steal it from you.
A Life Beyond Amazing
