Matt 17:20 He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move."

Great strength exists in the smallest things. The spiders web is so exquisitely formed, a fragile, delicate remnant, yet is stronger in proportion to size and weight than the finest steel.

Mark 11:22-25 v.24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours.

If we need something and we have asked for it through prayer, then get ready to receive it. Getting ready to receive it is a part of the asking, an act of faith that the answer is on its way.

We do so little to prepare for it and when it happens the first thing we say is, "I can't believe it." Whisper...Believe it, because it is the assurance of receiving. Your Sister In Christ, Brown Eagle

I am well, and I hope that you are, too. I speak very little French. Parlez-vous l'Englais? Have a wonderful day, mon ami.

Out back in the gardens I have my fair share of sparrows. They sit on the fences with endless chatter all day long, back and forth between themselves. A daily gossip flock, with much wing pointing. They talk the talk, but little time is left, spent walking the walk. James 1:22 Rarely do these type of birds grow in the Lord. 2Tim2:16 Avoid Godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. Sadly, many "need to knows" give these birds an audience. A fence can become ones stage.

Sparrow News Flash: Rocking Robin went to jail, Woody Woodpecker was fired from his job, Patsy Penguin down sick with pneumonia, one of Betsy Blue Jays eggs fell out of the nest and broke to pieces, Willard Wrens birdhouse burned down last night...


I have often asked: will the Lord hold us accountable for the chatter that is heard?


Mt25:37 Then the righteous will answer Him, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see You a stranger and invite You in, or needing clothes and clothe You? When did we see You sick or in prison and go to visit You?' ***Lord, do we SEE as soon as we HEAR?***



The Lord gave us wings: not to tuck in, but to reach out to others. In love and reaching out to those with need, glorifies God by reflecting our love for Him. Whisper...Besides, my fence would be unable to hold up, if every bird decided to just sit and continue the chatter. YSIC Brown Eagle

Whisper...and thank you very much!

Sing His praises, rejoice in His love, relax your soul in His peace.

Mt16:24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone would come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

I can remember one time picturing spiritually in my mind, myself standing on the shore, facing the vast ocean in front of me. The Lord was calling me to come out. There I stood on the shoreline with my luggage that I had been carrying around for years. One suitcase contained depression, pain, hurt, loss, loneliness. Another bag held lack of trust, defeat, and low self esteem. Another suitcase held sufferings, painful childhood memories, fear. Quite the load that I had been saving and carrying around for years. This was a turning point for me in my Christian walk. The Lord called me to come out. The Lord that day wasn't beside me saying, "Here let me carry this for you." He was calling me out to the deep to follow Him. For years I was following Him, but I was falling so far behind. My luggage was slowing me down. This was a season for me to let go. I knew I would sink, carrying all of this excess out into the water. That day years ago, I set it down on shore and with my hands now totally free, I picked up my cross and followed.


Mt16:25 goes on to say: For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. Set down the luggage.

Gal5:1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Whisper: Lord, could this also apply to excess luggage? YSIC Brown Eagle

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY 2010

I wait patiently for You Lord; You turn to me and hear my cry. You lift me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; You set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. You put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to You God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord. How blessed I am when I make You my trust, and do not look to the proud, or turn aside to false gods. Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders You have done. The things You planned for us no one can recount to You; were I to speak and tell of them, they would be too many to declare.
Sacrifice and offering You do not desire, but my ears You have pierced, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require. Then I said, "Here I am, I have come -- it is written about me in the scroll. I desire to do your will, O my God; Your law is within my heart." (Psalm 40:1-8) NIV (Personalized)
Do not withhold Your mercy from me, O Lord; may Your love and Your truth always protect me. For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head and my heart fails within me. Be pleased, O Lord, to save me; O Lord, come quickly to help me. (verses 11-13)

C'est magnifique !
