10 THINGS JESUS REALLY SAID ABOUT HIS RETURN

1.  No one knows the day or the hour of my return

In Mark 13:32, Jesus had been teaching his disciples about his return and says, “But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” Luke records it this way, “You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” (Lk 12:40).

Jesus told his disciples even He didn’t know exactly when He would return. This is fascinating! At this point in history, God the Father knew the exact number of years, months, days and seconds until Christ would return and Jesus didn’t. Therefore, it cannot be figured out. It is extreme arrogance to claim to know something Jesus didn’t.

Also, Jesus applied this truth to their lives, “Be ready.” Jesus didn’t know if he would return in their lifetimes, but his instructions to them are his instructions to us almost 2,000 years later. Get yourself ready for my return, leave nothing undone.

2.  There will be several signs, increasing in intensity, as my return draws near

The above statement did not mean Christ’s followers shouldn’t pay attention to the signs of his return. They mustn’t try to figure out the day or the hour (obvious to most), but should pay attention to natural events and recognize the potential fulfillment of Christ’s words as they happen.

Jesus promised there would be wars and rumors of wars, famines, earthquakes in various places (Matt 24:6-7). And also, “signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory” (Lk 21:25-27).

Additionally, Jesus used the term “birth pains” to describe these signs. Like the pain of childbirth, these signs will get more intense and frequent as the day draws close. When we see increasing numbers of earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes, and other natural disasters, Jesus instructs, “straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near” (Lk 21:28). Once again, Jesus instructs us to pay attention to the signs of His return in order to be ready when He comes.

3.  Pray for the strength to escape the things that are going to take place

In Luke 21:36, Jesus taught his followers, “But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.” From the context, the “escaping” Jesus refers to is escaping from the judgment and wrath God will bring upon those who have rejected Christ.  Jesus teaches his disciples to pray for the strength to escape. Too many believe Christians will escape by default, but Jesus told his disciples to pray for strength to escape, and so we must.

4.  It will seem like a normal day

In Luke 17:26-30, Jesus compared the day the Son of Man will be revealed to God’s judgment in the days of both Noah and Lot. In both these times, people were going about the normal business of life: eating, drinking, marrying, buying, selling, planting, and building. In the midst of this apparent normalcy, God’s judgment and wrath fell. Jesus said this is what it will be like when He comes. It will be a great cosmic interruption that will be like lightening which “lights up the sky from one side to the other” (Lk 17:24).

5.  I will repay everyone for what he has done

In the last chapter of Revelation, Jesus told his followers He is coming and “bringing his recompense…to repay everyone for what he has done” (22:12). Matthew 25 describes the scene when Jesus will sit on his glorious throne and all nations will be gathered before him to be judged (31-33). All people will stand before Jesus and give account for what they did in life. How glorious it will be to stand confidently in the imputed righteousness of Christ in that day.

6.  Not everyone who expects to make it into the Christ’s kingdom will

Some of the most sobering words of Jesus are about those who will not be allowed to enter the kingdom of heaven. In Matthew 7:21-23, Jesus said, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’” What could be worse than hearing these words from Jesus?

At the end, there will be many people who will think they are in because of their ministry credentials. And Jesus will say, “I never knew you” and call them “workers of lawlessness.” Their repentance was in word only. They acted like followers, but didn’t have a saving relationship with Christ based on faith and repentance as the foundation of their lives. Jesus said there will be many people in this terrifying condition, living their lives thinking they were in and finding out in the final analysis they weren’t.

7.  There will be great persecution and many will fall away

Jesus promised great persecution would break out against his followers and would cause many to fall away (Matt 24:9-10). It’s relatively easy to follow Christ when things are going well, but when times get tough we find out what we’re made of. Is our faith in Christ only as strong as the comfort we enjoy? If God’s enemies come and take everything will we cling to Christ or fall away? Jesus promised many would make the incomprehensible choice to fall away.

8.  Because of lawlessness, the love of many will grow cold

Jesus promised that sin would lure many away from Him (Matt 24:12). These are people who once loved Christ warmly who have cooled in their affections for Him. They’ve traded in their desires for Christ for worthless idols. Sex, money, power and other false gods have replaced the love of Christ in their hearts. Their love grows cold as they lose the war against temptations to sin. Stoking the heart’s fiery love for Christ must include destroying the wet buckets of sin that can so quickly quench it. True Christ followers must repent often and much.

9.  Be on guard, keep awake

Jesus continually told his followers to stay awake, to watch their lives, and to be ready for his return. In Matthew, Jesus gave four parables to explain how and why his followers should be prepared for his coming: the homeowner and the thief (24:42-44); the good and wicked servants (24:45-51); the 10 virgins (25:1-13); and the talents (25:14-30). In each of these parables, Christ described readiness with working to complete the work Christ gave us, namely fulfilling the Great Commission. Every Christian is to diligently use the gifts and opportunities God provides to reach the world for Christ.

To be awake is to be ready and willing to do Christ’s will. In Gethsemane, Jesus’ disciples slept instead of joining Him in prayer. They weren’t doing what Christ asked, but slept. In the same way, many Christians today are asleep to Christ’s will. They don’t seek him or ask for his direction. Instead, like the disciples in the garden, they sleep. Hear the words of the prophet Isaiah, “Awake, awake, put on strength” (51:9).

Peter says it well, “The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins” (1 Peter 4:7-8).

10.  I am coming soon!

Four times in the book of Revelation, Jesus said to the churches, “I am coming soon!” (Rev 16:15; 22:7,12,20). It was originally meant as an encouraging word to 1st century Christians suffering by the hands of Rome and has continued to encourage Christ’s followers throughout the ages. Christians in every generation are to hold tightly to the promise that Christ will return soon.

As the writer of Hebrews reminds, “Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him” (Heb 9:28). Like young children eagerly longing for Christmas morning, Christians eagerly wait for Christ to return. In doing so, we live out Paul’s wonderful promise to the church in Thessalonica, “Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord” (1 Thess 4:17). Nothing is greater than to be with Jesus Christ always and forever.

MY CALLING

I have finally found the calling in my life. God's Will for me! :D what he has planned for me from the foundation of the world. A plan to prosper me, not to harm me. Oh thank you, my dear Heavenly Father. For waking me up from my slumber! For opening my eyes and my ears. I will not be deceived anymore! I know now, what I'm meant to do. It took 44 years for me to find out.

Just thinking about it, just blows me away! Are you ready? To know my calling from God? Okay. Here it is. My calling is to preach the gospel. The true gospel. Not watered down gospel. Just as Jesus said when He walked the Earth over 2000 years ago. We must seek the kingdom of God first. Do you know what the true gospel is? It's to proclaim the kingdom of God (heaven)...and that it is at hand! If you understand this glorious truth, you have to share it. You must be a doer not only a hearer. WOW! GLORY TO GOD!! OUR FATHER WHICH ART IN HEAVEN! I always think about when He will be living with us on the new earth. We will be able to see how our everlasting Father looks like! Even our sweet Lord Jesus, we will be like Him. We will be with them. Ruling the cosmos. LOL. Okay i'm getting a head of myself here...that will be a post later.

Thank you Lord, for saving me & pulling me out of the miry pit! It is true what God's messenger said to me back in 2000. That things will get better! Now look where I am. I am under God's grace & loved by the king of kings. I am a child of the Almighty God. The one & only true God. There is none like HIM nor there shall be no other like HIM! Praise God.

So, as I read the Bible (it took me 16 months). I knew God was telling me to tell others on what I was reading (understanding). I felt it in my heart. So I began reading more and putting sermons together, especially on the End-Times, on the Major & Minor Prophets, and on the Book of Revelation. I am so fascinated and awe-struck about it all. I pray that I retain everything that I am learning. "Oh Father, you are so worthy to be praised!" Thank you for choosing me!

So one day, I received a message from a preacher friend. He told me that God told him that I was to preach the gospel. I was like "wow!" I just received a confirmation on what I came to know. He says, that there will be others, servants of God, who will be telling me the same thing! That I will receive the laying of the hands and that I will be prayed over. My heart just leaped almost outta my chest! I was ecstatic! Another confirmation came from another preacher friend, we were chatting about things, I was sharing my experiences and dreams. He says, you know you are to preach! I started praising God! I knew it was another confirmation.

Maybe a week or so later, I was laying in bed, it was the morning. I had the television on Grace TV. Kenneth Copeland was on or was it Andrew Wommack? Lol. Anyways, I had my eyes closed, listening to him. All of a sudden I had this vision. I saw this really big jet flying past me, right in front of my face *vrroom it went* I saw many people standing on the wings! Both wings full of standing people!! They were smiling & enjoying the ride. I opened my eyes & said, "What was that, Lord?" I could not stop thinking about it. I just had to share it with my sister. We got a little worried, wondering what it could mean. Then I happened to chat with my preacher friend again, I told him about my vision. He told me that it's a ministry that God is going to give you. He said, big planes represents ministries. I was just in awestruck, once again! Thank you Lord!

Finally I received my final confirmation. I was chatting with a friend who lives in Kampala, Uganda. He is also a preacher who does the Great Commission. He said to me "my spirit is telling me that you have a calling in your life" I told him, "yes, to preach the gospel". He said, "YES!" HaHa! I'm just falling more and more in love with our Lord Jesus Christ...and of course Father God. Things are starting to fall into place. I am preparing myself for my ministry. I have begun it actually with this new blog of mine. I sure hope you find my blog worthy of another visit.

PLEASE COME AGAIN! ~ ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD! HE LOVES YOU! REPENT (TURN FROM YOUR SINS) & INVITE HIM INTO YOUR LIFE!! IT'S TIME TO THINK OF YOUR ETERNAL DESTINATION. BLESSINGS TO YOU!

Helping Children

I know my calling is also to help the children. I want to start something on my own. Start a feeding program for the children & for the needy in my community. There are some hungry & neglected children.  It pains me when they come over & asked me for something to eat or for something to drink. Of course, I will give when I have something to give. I plan on making an extension on my house. Then hold children's activities & bible studies for the adults. Have a movie & snack night on the Sabbath Days (prepared before sundown of course).

I really love this one dream I had about these children. In this dream I walked into this class like room. It was full of children, they were laughing & talking, sitting around little round tables. I was bringing in more chairs & when they seen me they all started shouting "YEA, LISA!!" with their arms in the air. HaHa! They all looked so happy & they were glowing!

Another dream that involved children is what I would call during the tribulation. It was what I sensed. I was standing outside my compound (my place of safety). Alot of children came to see me. they were standing outside, crying. They were scared. I tried sending them home to their parents, but they did not want to leave. They said, "NO, we want to stay with you!" They begged & pleaded. I recognized alot of these children. They were young boys from the community. I could still see the frightened look on their faces. It stays in my mind.

I scanned the scene. It was dark & gloomy. Overcasted. No sunshine. A bit cold. I seen many community members walking around confused. I recognized community leaders and elders. They didn't know what to do or what was going on. So, I ushered the children into my place. We went inside. My place of safety was a big building. The Lord provided. We were safe. We did not use electricity for lights. Our light was supernatural, coming from the walls. It was glowing, a light blue. Then I woke up & said "AAWW!"





Dreams of Swords

My knowledge of fighting for the Kingdom of God, came through dreams. My dreams of holding them swords are the best I've ever had!! In the first dream I was with another individual, who I do not know (he was a male). We were with alot of people in a cave (people who I recognized from my community). They had looks of worry & they were crammed together (huddling). We were calming them down. After awhile we moved away from them. I then looked out a stone window, like from a castle. I peered down & noticed a big moat below. There was a lone person down there. He wanted to come in. All of a sudden this big gigantic worm-like creature came out of the moat & attacked the man. It had him in it's mouth & it was eating him. He was swallowed up. Me & my companion decided to go out & kill it. We jumped out the window, onto the creature, with one sword & one dagger in each of our hands. I woke up with a jerk & said "Howah!"

In this other dream, my ex boyfriend wanted to get back together. He begged & pleaded. Saying that he still loved me & that he couldn't live without me. I told him that i could not. That he must move on & that I would be too busy. "Doing what?" he said. I proclaimed, "Fighting for God!" That's when I held up two big swords in each hand. I woke up laughing & thanked my Lord!

10 Amazing Promises From Jeremiah 29:11

Jeremiah 29:11 is a Scripture we've all seen in a card or heard at church at some point. Jot down these 10 amazing promises we can glean from this verse.


1. God Wants to Restore Relationship - God's plan is always to restore relationship with us. That was the whole point of Jesus coming to earth. When we're chastised,we shouldn't get discouraged. It's always to bring about growth and change for the better and to make us more like Him.

3. God's Blessings are Timeless - It doesn't matter what generational curses you may have inherited, the blessings of God are still available to you. Put an end to bondage, slavery and a wilderness mindset and allow yourself to be set free in Christ.

4. God's Plan Brings Peace - Peace is ours for the taking and helps us to know when we're firmly planted in the will and plan of God. Let the peace of God rule in your hearts saints!

5. God's Plan Impacts the Future - Don't follow the crowd, the road to life is narrow and few find it. God's plan is to bless you with an abundant life on this earth and give you an eternity to look forward to. When we're walking with God our future is always bright (even when it gets lonely).


6. God's Plan is Not Harmful - God wants to do us good and not evil all our days. When we humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God and allow ourselves to live in the grace of God, we are truly "abiding in the vine" (Jesus Christ, our Savior) and protected from harm.

7. God's Plan is Prosperous - We shouldn't just think financially here, but also emotionally, spiritually and mentally. Holistic growth and increase. Thank God that He does not want to leave us lacking in any area of your life.

8. God's Plan Will Bring Hope - Hope is an expectation of good things to come. God's plan for our lives will keep us in a place of hopefulness and security.

9. Intimacy & Closeness - In order to know God's unique design for our lives, we have to draw near to Him. This helps us to grow in understanding His character and His perspective on life.

10. Your Life Has a Blueprint - Jeremiah 29:11 finally reminds us that God has developed a specific blueprint for our lives and that He cares about fulfilling His plan and promise to us. He's faithful.

GOD IS THE CREATOR






THERE WILL NEVER BE PEACE ON EARTH

HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN 


WILL RESTORE PEACE!!

PRAISE THE LORD OF HOSTS!!

GOD LOVES YOU THIS MUCH!!

When God sent His Son to earth, He opened the door of salvation to whoever would believe. That means anyone can become a child of His & have everlasting life! Isn’t it good that He didn’t just come to save certain kinds of people? Aren’t you glad He doesn’t have a bunch of rules & conditions for salvation?

Before Jesus came, people had to observe many laws in order to be holy enough to go into God’s temple. They were constantly performing sacrifices to pay for their sins just so they could be around the presence of God. Even then, their sins were only covered up. They were still there. But when Jesus came, He was the final sacrifice. His blood doesn’t just cover our sins; it washes them completely away! Now, instead of going to the temple to be near God, the Bible says we are the temple, & He chooses to live inside of us! WOW! OUR GOD IS AWESOME! ? ;D

SOMETIMES I FEEL HOMESICK



There are days when i feel so homesick. My heart just aches and aches. I yearn to go home. To my eternal home, Heaven. Have you ever felt this way? *sigh* *sniff* I KNOW i do not belong here! I am soujourning in a strange world. Born to flesh. To experience joys and struggles of life. Yes, we are here for a little while. To experience life, once. The saying, "Life is short" is so true. Compared to eternity. Wow. Think of life as school. When we die, we graduate. I look so forward to my graduation! AND at receiving my new spiritual body :D

When the loneliness starts, i pray to Abba Father, to give me peace of mind and peace of heart. Then, many images come to mind. Especially of my loved ones that have crossed over to eternity. The ones that had faith and believed in Yeshua (Jesus). My parents, my grandparents, my aunts and uncles, and my cousins. I also think of my pets. I believe they are also waiting. Yahweh (God) is a very loving Father. He loves ALL of his creation. Us and the animals. After all, He did make a covenant (with us and the animals) not to destroy the world again, after the Great Flood.

I think of all of them up there, basking in the pure light and love of our Heavenly Father. Wow! I imagine all the joy they are experiencing. It brings tears of happiness to my eyes. They sure are are the lucky ones ~ Once you have Yeshua in your heart, you will not fear death. Becaue He has conquered death. We have nothing to fear, if we are for Him...Just think, one second after death, you are there! The transition is instantaneously. YES, I can't wait to go home. No power of hell, no scheme of man, will ever pluck me from His hand.

I can't wait until He returns or calls me home! Once you give yourself fully to Yeshua. You become a new person. "Therefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things are passed away; behold, new things have come." (2 Corinthians 5:17). YES, a new person! "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." (Jeremiah 33:3). You will receive knowledge and understanding of things that you did not know. The Holy Scriptures become alive. THE WORD will dwell in you. If you are struggling in this life, give it a try! It will be the best decision, ever. It is time to think of your eternal destiny. God already knows from the foundation of the earth, who will accept HIM and who will reject HIM. It's your choice, eternal life or eternal damnation.

YESHUA is coming!! HE is coming soon! The signs are everywhere! Rumours of wars, famine, pestilence, Lovers of selves, mockers, abominations. Are you ready? Are you prepared? Are you waiting for His magnificent return? If not, you still have time, to repent and to give your life to the Lord of Hosts!
One more thought to consider before i finish this post >> Will you be able to stand before the Lord when He returns or will you flee? It will be a sight to behold! The greatest event in history, OF THE WHOLE UNIVERSE! Awesome! "And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory" (Mark 13:26). "Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen" (Revelation 1:7).

There will never be peace on earth. He is the only one who can and will restore peace. Praise the Lord!

I recognized the laugh and deep voice. i whirled around and exclaimed "Johnny Cash! What are you, doing here?" LOL they started laughing. i stood by the fridge, listening to them talk and laugh. haha. Kookum (grandmother) said, something to me (i can't remember now). but i said, "Gah!" (whatever) they started laughing and Johnny Cash said i was so funny! :P LOL. I woke up laughing  my ass off!!

MY PARENTS' VISIT

 
My Late Parents, Victoria & Baby Pierre

i dreamt of my parents. they both came to see me together. they also looked so young. my dad's short black hair and my mom's curls. they looked so shiny and happy. my dad wanted me to start painting also. he was showing me some of his artwork. maybe his work on the other side eh?we were in this house that had a big big window that overlooked a beautiful countryside. maybe it was one of their mansions. haha. i remember looking out. it was amazing. then i woke up. i couldn't believe i had such a good dream about them.

I MISS YOU VERY MUCH

SOME BIBLICAL SCRIPTURES ON ANMALS


I came across some biblical scriptures which is making my belief in animals and the afterlife more sure. Oh what joy our pets must be experiencing right now. Pure happiness. Lots of love & Light. My love, for our Heavenly Father,  grows deeper & deeper each day. The love I have for our Creator is immeasurable!

“Ask the animals, and they will teach you...In God’s hand is the life of every creature, and the breath of all mankind.” (Job 12:7;10)

“A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal.” (Proverbs 12:10)

"After all, the same fate awaits human beings and animals alike. One dies just like the other. They are the same kind of creature. A human being is no better off than an animal, because life has no meaning for either." (Ecclesiastes 3:19)

"They are both going to the same place---the dust. They both came from it; they will both go back to it." (Ecclesiastes 3:20)

"How can anyone be sure that the human spirit goes upward while an animal's spirit goes down into the ground?" (Ecclesiastes 3:21)

"Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD." (Psalm 150:6)


"And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever." (Revelation 5:13)

"For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now." (Romans 8:19-22)

The Scripture says He knows about every bird that falls to the ground too. God does care about animals. “God’s hand is in the life of every creature."

I LOVE YOU ABBA FATHER! From now and onto eternity! You are so worthy to be praised!

Life Goes On

I still miss my dear Hudson. I know he is in a better place, where he will never be hurt again (he was killed by other dogs). He's free, running around in Heaven. He's there waiting for me and Rubby :)) We still talk about him, my family. My little nieces and nephews still miss him alot. They keep telling me that. He was (is) a special dog! He touched many lives during his short life on this world.

 I thank God daily, for giving me such a wonderful dog. He taught me unconditional love, patience, and compassion. He made me laugh with his funny antics. Before i had him, i prayed to God to give me a companion, anything, anybody i said. The next day, i got him. a little fur ball lol. he was so cute, i just fell in love. i never wanted to get a dog, but it was my nephew Joshim who asked me if i wanted to get one. He said, that there were 2 puppies left, a male and female. i said, well "i don't want a female because i might start crying if i see her getting banged by big dogs (mini poodle, was the mother), so i said, "get me the male" an' it was Hudson *L* i'm so glad i did.

I decided to name him Hudson. After the man who raised me, Joshua Hudson. Joshua was in a common law relationship with my late mother (from the age of 3 to when i turned 14). Joshua just passed away, the day before (August 13, 2009). My parents were both deceased, and now Joshua passed. i felt so lonely and so alone now in this world. That's when i prayed to God for companionship. I had my cat Rubby for a year, but you know cats, they do their own thing. Hudson, sure filled that spot :)

Hudson got himself a mate, from across the road. She actually moved over lol. I didn't know her name, so i called her, Li'l B. Hudson mated with her and they had one puppy. I was surprised when my friend Eric told me that there was a puppy in the dog house on my front patio. I went to check, sure enough, there was
one. He was born in there! He was already born, when we got evacuated (due to the forest fire). Just before we left, i remembered, "the puppy!" I went to look, the puppy and Li'l B were not there. I think, she knew we were gonna leave.

I was so worried about them during our evacuation. but when we returned, two weeks later, Li'l B was outside the house (as soon as we got off the bus, Hudson went straight to her and sniffed her butt LMAO!) After i unlocked my front door, Rubby came running, meowing like crazy (he went home the day before, with his cousin Stephanie, my neice, lol). he spent the night alone, he made it sound like he never seen me for ages :D I went to check out the dog house, the puppy was there. LOL! I named him, Li'l Hudson (the MNR firefighters, fed the dogs while everyone was gone).

Yea, it's amazing how things work out. Even though, i am saddened by his death, he left me a part of him. He actually left me his son. his seed. haha :) I'm so happy to have him Li'l Hudson and Li'l B. By the way, she's preggo again. when i noticed that she was, i said to her "you litto B, you cheated on Hudson." "how could you!" LOL. yea, she was bothered by the male dogs, she gave in lol. let's see how many she has.

Li'l Hudson is getting big. He's spying on me through the window. he took over his dad's spot and his bed outside the window. he does have alot of same characteristics as Hudson Sr. it surprised me alot. especially when he yawns, he has to make that noise (a little screech) every time! lol. when he was born, he looked black like his momma, but his fur is changing, getting lighter. grayish. turning light blonde, on his white fur, the top of his paws and chest area (you can notice it in this picture). he has the same white paws as his dad tho, and he has the same facial features.  li'l Hudson always wants to give me handshakes.  it didn't take me long to teach him that either. 

li'l Hudson is still kinda skittish, even to me, but times, he just wants my undivided attention. he comes in through the window and lays right against me (what Hudson use to do). he loves to stare, sometimes, i think it's Hudson visiting me through him. i know it's weird, but that's what i sense... especially when he paws at me, touching my shoulder when he's sitting next to me on the bed. that's what his daddy use to do to me too. he is comforting me, i'm sooo glad he is here with me ~ thank you God and thank you Hudson, for leaving me Li'l Hudson.

***LI'L B JOINED HUDSON ON MARCH 13, 2012***
*** LI'L HUDSON JOINED HIS FURRY PARENTS AT THE RAINBOW BRIDGE ON FEBRUARY 11,/2013***

HUDSON MY FURBABY


I am still missing and mourning for my beloved Hudson (a mini-pinscher/poodle mix). He was only 2 years old when he was suddenly taken from me on September 8. I was inconsolable for days. I couldn't eat or sleep. The thought of not seeing him again almost drove me crazy. I can't wait to see him again. I know he'll be waiting for me in Heaven. So i need to change my life around and accept Jesus...so it will be guaranteed. It will be a blessed day. i love and miss you so much ♥

My grief is lessening each passing day. Sure i still have my crying spells, but it's not as bad as before ~ I've had 2 visits from him since his passing. The first was when i noticed his old bed was moved from it's usual place and just a few days later, i woke up to find one of his treats next to me on the bed. It's giving me comfort to know that Hudson can come and visit me when he wants to or when he needs to ♥

He was such a lovable doggie. I use to always hug and smother him with kisses ♥ His passing has affected my whole family (cousins, brothers, sister, nieces and nephews). I look forward to our glimpses and visits from him.

"The Lord has called you to the Rainbow Bridge. I know you hurt no more; you're free and happy as you romp with the other dogs at the Bridge. Wait there for me, Hudson. I'll come for you one day. Go with God, my baby. You'll always be in my heart" :)

WHEN I'M GONE

When I'm gone, don't cry for me. Please smile each time you think of me. I'm not beneath the ground you see. Each breeze that blows is part of me.

I'm in the clouds so soft and white. My eyes will shine in stars at night. Don't think of me as gone for good. I'll be around. You knew I would.

I'm watching everything you do. I am still sharing life with you. No need to look both far and near. Just listen close. I am right here.

I'm here to listen every day. To all the things you want to say. I've seen you cry so many tears. Be glad we had so many years.

I'll wait until you come to me. Our lives will be like they used to be. We'll both be whole and free of pain, My life with you will be back again. Please take the love you gave to me. And give to more that are just like me. So when I'm gone, don't cry for me. But smile each time you think of me.  (WE MISS YOU HUDSON....RUBBY & I)


Do Dogs go to Heaven?

by Lisa Morrisseau on Saturday, September 10, 2011 at 4:02pm


HUDSON
This is a question that many broken hearted pet owners have asked. wondering where our furbabies go when they leave, this world. I've been already wondering this question for months previous to Hudson's passing (Sept. 8). I've had many dreams of him, where i have lost him. I couldn't find him and I would be freakin' out. Maybe this was God's way of telling me that Hudson would be leaving me soon.

Even when we were evacuated to Geraldton (Ontario) due to the forest fires, i had my fear of losing him in my mind. i was extra careful. he was such a good dog there. he was so well-behaved, he didn't bark or whine. the only time he barked was when Carl Rae's Pug walked by the door, where our cot was (he was running loose in the hallways). he gave three loud barks and growled for a few secs. everyone was asleep, it was in the middle of the night (we were all sleeping in a gym). Some people asked me in the morning, what was wrong with Hudson last night. haha :)

HUTTON (JANUARY 2013) & ANGELO (APRIL 2013)
I am thankful and feel very blessed that God gave me such a wonderful companion and that he took him back. It is God's Will to give and take. I understand that. As my cousin Veronica wrote, to me "Hudson is with your mom....probably rubbing up against her feet" lol. thanks for the laugh my cousin. you actually made me laugh out loud (LOL)

I've been reading some stories online, about people who have seen their pets on the otherside. here is a bit of
one of the stories, i really enjoyed this one.

This 13 year old girl died on the operating table. she was having open heart surgery:The ride through the tunnel was like nothing else. I remember thinking, "So this is death."

The tunnel was dark, and every once in a while something that looking like lightning would flash across my path. These flashes were brilliant in color and didn't scare me. At the end of the tunnel was a bright light.

LI'L B, HUDSON JR., & ANGELO
From the light came two dogs of mine. One was a collie named Mimi who had died three years previously from an infection, and the other was a box named Sam who had died two years before after being hit by a car. The dogs came running and jumped on me and kissed my face with their tongues. Their tongues weren't wet, and I felt no weight when they jumped on me.  The dogs seemed to glow from a light that was inside them.

I recall saying to myself, "Thank you, God, for letting my dogs be alive." I hugged my dogs as tight as I could.

I then called my dogs and together we started walking toward the light. All colors were in the light and it was warm, a living thing, and there were people as far as the eye could see, and they were glowing with an inner light - just like my dogs. In the distance I could see fields, hills, and a sky.

LI'L B & ANGELO
The light spoke and it said, "Lynn, it is not time for you yet.  Go back, child." I put my hand up to touch the top of the light. I knew then that I had touched the face of God. I told God that I loved him, and I wanted to stay with him.

Again the light said, "Lynn, go back. It is not time for you. You have work to do for me.  Go back." I know this sounds silly, but I asked the light, "If I go, can I come back and will my dogs still be here waiting for me?" The light said yes.

So do Dogs go to Heaven? i say YES! some of them, anyways. Everyone knows that there are good and bad dogs here on this world. Just like us humans ~ Just reading stories like this is making my grief go away.
BELLA (APRIL 3, 2013)
i've been praying to God to heal my heart and HE SURELY IS! So, if i want to see Hudson again and all my other pets, I will have go to Heaven too. I really want to! I am willing to change my life and get it right with God. I want to praise him and save as many people as i can for him. I want to shine with all that brilliant inner light. My heart is soaring! :D


MY FIRST NIGHT WITHOUT HUDSON

By Lisa Morrisseau on Friday, September 9, 2011 at 2:20am

  well it will be my first night alone without my dear Hudson. my crying still comes and goes. i miss him so much. i can't believe he left me so suddenly. i sat outside, wishing that he would come running into the driveway...or to even catch a glimpse of him. i think i heard him growl, as a few dogs walked by on the road. i quietly said his name and asked, "are you here?" i know he will look after me still. he was so protective and he loved me very much, as much as i loved him. we have all lost pets. it's like losing a child. i will remember all of the good and happy times and the many, many lovely moments we have had. i will always have him in my heart and in my mind. my beloved Hudson ~ i find comfort in this "remember not when your pet passed but when your pet lived. they may be gone physically, but they're still by our sides spiritually. forever and always, eternally and unconditionally. they will always love us as we will always love them.....Forever"









My Angel Encounter


Back in 2000 i lived in Thunder Bay, Ontario (i was going to college).  I was in a common law relationship with a man named James. We were together for 6 years. During the last year of our relationship and my 3 year program, he started being abusive towards me, especially when he was drunk. I didn't know what to do. There were times i thought of going crazy and ending it all. I didn't want to quit my program, i wanted to finish. so i decided to stick it out.

I use to stay at the college as late as i could. Too scared to go home *sigh* so one time. i really didn't want to go home, i was crying and i was thinking about just doing something to myself.

All of a sudden, i heard the elevator down the hall *binnng* and open (i was in the computer lab on the 3rd floor). We are able to see out into the hallway and see the elevator, they had see through walls. like hard plastic. I forgot the word for it. I glanced over and noticed this man walking out. We immediately made eye contact. He was walking towards me and he walked right into the computer lab. He was so tall and very distinguished-looking. He had short light brown hair, almost blondish. He came and sat behind me. I didn't feel scared, but i felt an awesome presence.

He spoke to me. he asked "Lisa, how are you doing? I replied, "I'm fine." He then said, "I know, you're not" "Please do not do what you are thinking of doing" "Things are gonna get better, just you wait and see" He then told me, I was special and that he loved and will always watch over me. He then got up and left. Went walking down the hall.

I told my college friends about this encounter. They said, "Well, maybe he seen your name when you were logged in." I told them, "I wasn't even logged on and that i was just sitting there crying. ~ I believe it was my Guardian Angel, Uriel. My dear God blessed me! In sending him to come talk to me, at this particular hard time in my life.

He's still looking out for me. Thank God for that. He even posted messages a couple of times, on my message box on my old knet webpage. (Yes, signed Uriel). He said "I was forgiven and to go in peace". I have gone back to the message history and cannot find them. I think he just wanted me to read them and then he took them off. lol. 'Cause i don't remember deleting it them either. I get little messages here and there. Sometimes, in the most expected places and times. Even when i try to sleep in, i would hear a male voice, yell my name and say, "Lisa!!" But I know that's our Heavenly Father. ;D

So that's my first divine encounter. Archangel Uriel, is my protector, dispatched from God :D I thank God everyday, for helping and guiding me. When i want to listen to Him, i will mediate. Hear His voice and see what He puts in my mind. God's Angels are real and everywhere!  My fave colors are purple and gold...and guess what? those are Uriel's colors also!!  *L* :)

Yes, things have definitely gotten better! I'm no longer sinning against my body! I have been delivered from alcoholism, drug and nicotine addiction! Praise God! an' I'm no longer in any kind of common relationships. Only with my Lord Jesus. He's #1 in my life. My calling is to preach the gospel. I've been told this from 3 preacher friends, thus far. I will be getting baptism next month. Full water immersion! So, yea life is great!! I owe it all to my Heavenly Father! I thank him everyday for pulling me out of the miry pit and for waking me up from my slumber!
