Is Heaven like this?

I just found this video and, oh, how it stirred me.  I grew up singing in our church choir and I've sung in many choirs throughout my years and it always thrills me!!!

 

I love singing solos as I can do my own thing. 

 

 I love singing duets as the close harmony is so very special. 

 

 I love singing trios as there's one more tone blended in. 

 

 I really love singing in mixed quartets as we have all four parts present now--Soprano, Alto, Tenor, and Bass.

 

It was the most musical fun of all as I got to sing 4 part women in collage when I sang with the Sweet Adalines!!  Now THAT is challenging and WOW--that harmony will knock your socks off.

 

BUT

 

Singing in a choir with LOTS of people and multiple people singing each part and the many voices following the hands of the one director--not THAT is what I imagine Heaven to be like.  BIG SIGH!

 

So, as always, I don't take the time to write to you all just for the purpose of having something to do.  NO--I want to affect you in such a way as that you go out and do something different.  In this case, when I get to Heaven, I will be so delighted to learn that someone joined a choir as a result of pondering this blog post.  WON'T THAT BE BLISS? 

 

OK, if you're not convinced, then watch this video!!

 

Hugs and happy singing!

Dawn

PS  I'd love to hear how music which praises God touches your life.  Feel free to leave a comment.

 

 

In this storm

I shared earlier that we had a tornado go through our farm in the early morning hours of July 3rd.  If you haven't seen that post, you may want to scroll down and read it before you read this one. 

 

Although I really believe what this song says, "That in His time HE will make everything right," sometimes it's hard to wait.  We haven't been the same ever since the tornado wrecked our farm.  Often I have noticed us looking at each other as though someone said something in another language that nobody can understand!  Even the babies have that absent look about them at times.

 

My work of helping folks get their energies balanced has slowed down!  At times I've even dreaded doing sessions due to how much harder they have been to do this month.  Sometimes I feel like I need to get outside of my head and give my brain a push--MOVE!!

 

This morning a dear friend, who is also an energy practitioner, asked if she can work on me--PRAISE THE LORD!  She said that our Heavenly Father has put me and my family on her heart all last week.  Anna said that she is working on completing her certification with the Body Code program and she needs people to work on.  She was feeling led by the Lord to ask me if that would be ok with me.

 

I was so grateful that Anna chose me to work on!!  When she asked what concerns I have, I mentioned that it seems like our entire family has it's energies scrambled since the tornado went through here.  It just missed our houses by 30 feet and snapped off massive trees and collapsed buildings but we were safe.

 

That's what I've been saying for a month and most gratefully, too!  However, as I ponder the after-affects of having that kind of power move through our farm just feet away from where we were sleeping, I have observed that the energies of our family are different somehow.

 

It's hard to explain what I mean but it's just been hard to think.  I'm reminded of my brothers placing some tin foil by the rabbit ears on our television set we had when I was young about 50 years ago.  The picture on the screen got all fuzzy--like when the programming ended at midnight.  Yes that actually happened in the dark ages.  lol

 

Anyway, I asked Anna if she could check to see if my family's energies got scrambled when the tornado went through here.  She said, "YES!"  Now THAT explains a LOT of what has been happening in the past few weeks.  I asked Anna if she could check into repairing the damage and she said, 'Yes!"

 

A little while later she said that she had done a Body Code session on us and was able to unscramble our energies.  Also she was instructed by our loving Heavenly Father to give us the energies of joy and comfort!  Doesn't that sound like Him? 

 

YES, He is so good to bring us healing through trained Christian practitioners!  I know that He leads me through each session that I do because I ask Him to lead me at the beginning of every session that I give to someone. God (the God of the Bible) the only living God, leads me through every session that I give so He gets the glory for all of the healing that comes out of each session. 

 

The God of creation created most of the healing modalities available to us nowadays.  Some modalities were created by the enemy to try to steal some of the glory for himself.  You can tell who created the program by the people who are drawn to it--good people are drawn to good programs and vice versa.  If a practitioner is all about themselves, RUN AWAY!!

 

God leads His practitioners to the trainings that He wants them to take; He helps us to learn the healing tools that He wants us to use; AND He directs each thought in each session.  This is GOD'S WORK!  I am happy to play a small role in it as the conduit through which His energy flows to the hurting ones He brings to me each day! 

 

I could go on and on about the thrills I experience as people get unscrambled from energies they have picked up in harmful circumstances of life.  I've had the pleasure of seeing God work in this way for over 11 years and I've dedicated my life to continuing the work that He has begun in me.

 

I wish that I had time to go into detail about all of the healing tools that He's given me.  I don't have that kind of time right now but a friend is designing a website for me that will do just that.  In the meantime, I would like to share Dr. Bradly Nelson with you.  Dr. Brad is the creator of the Body Code program which Anna used to help my family this morning.  Here he is to explain how God uses him to help free the captives of trapped emotions--which is all of us!

 

Thank you for reading this and thanks much for the prayers you've sent to our family in this difficult month.  God bless you all!!!

 

Dawn 

 

PS  I highly urge you to contact Anna at the Holistic Hub in Grand Forks (https://www.facebook.com/holistichubgrandforks/) or myself if you are needing any help balancing your energies.  We'd be glad to help as God directs us!   Being this work is done with our focused intent, we can work on anyone anywhere.  Praise God from whom ALL blessings flow!

 

Tea at Ten

 

Today was the day of our monthly tea party. Could anything more wonderful be worded so drably?  Has anyone taken tea at 10:00 in the morning with your wonderful neighbors and your amazing daughters and your incredible grandchildren?  Well, how would you put THAT into words?

 

Does this help portray the wonders of tea time?

 

 

Or THIS?

 

 

How about this?

 

 and also this.

 

Actually we had NO tea at tea today.  Instead I made rhubarb slush which everyone said was delicious but I couldn't have as I can't have rhubarb.  I also made my dad's Ritz Cracker delights dipped in chocolate almond bark.  To the last of the almond bark I added some sunflower seeds and cut it in small pieces after it set.  Last but not least, I am not ashamed to admit, I bought a strawberry cheesecake scoop cake at Sam's last night which seemed to be delicious too but also of which I had none because of the gluten.

 

You see, it doesn't matter what we eat or what we drink.  What matters is that we get together!!!  If I could make the world a better place, I would institute monthly tea parties in EVERY neighborhood in the world.  If you're not inspired to give it a try yet, perhaps this post will cause you to drag out your china teapot (or buy one at a thrift shop) and bake something and make some tea.  Then invite someone and sit down and talk.  Give it a try.  The world is aching for a quiet time called "Tea."

 

Till next tea,

Dawn



 

PS,  If you can't find anyone to come to tea when it's ready, there's always this option.

 

Perhaps you noticed that I changed the Scripture verse at the top of the page. Perhaps not.  It is a busy time of year after all.  lol

 

I had an incredible prayer service with  my prayer partner, Victoria, yesterday.  The Father continues showing us both of His plans to build a healing center here on our farm.  He told me first in the Fall of 2006 as I lay dying at a health center in the Turtle Mountains of North Dakota. 

 

After a time of repentance yesterday, before the throne of Grace, we both saw Jesus establish a portal here for the angels to ascend and descend.  Portals are places of healing.  It was interesting that the portal wasn't exactly where the building will sit so I asked Father about that and He said that He has His reasons.

 

I have many questions about the healing center but I no longer doubt that it will exist in the physical realm at some time.  Father has even given us our architect; our chaplain, and many practitioners--all those who love Him.  We'll need cooks, nurses, cleaning people, funds but HE is doing it all.  He told me that He would nearly 12 years ago and He keeps His word.

 

The healing center's name is GLORY as that is a place where God's glory will heal the broken hearted and set the captives free.  So I've become interested in studying about God's glory and this is an article that I just found now.  HE IS ABOVE all that we do and think.  HIS GLORY IS AMAZING!!

 

I hope that you enjoy this article about our glorious Heavenly Father who is preparing a place of healing here on the prairies of North Dakota.  There has been immense spiritual opposition from the evil ones but they will not be able to stop this work of God.  I've seen it many times in dreams and visions!  IT WILL HAPPEN!!!

 

Yesterday He gave me the theme song for the healing center.  Actually I can't quite find the name but the chorus goes "Glory, Glory, Glory to God in the Highest Heavens."  I'm sure that He'll bring the exact name of it to me at just the right time.

 

The flower which represents GLORY is the white carnation as it is the symbol of healing. Father showed that to me as I sat at my brother's funeral last Spring.  He's shown me other details as I walk with Him serving the needs of the hurting ones that He sends my way each day. 

 

The dove is the official bird of GLORY as it represents peace and GLORY will be a place of peace.  The glorious fountain in the middle of GLORY will shoot water 27 feet into the air and it will be illuminated with lights that are all the colors of the rainbow in proper order.  It will truly be a place that God will enjoy right along with us!!

 

I urge you to do your own study of the Glory of God.  Let these thoughts begin a healing in you and stir up a hope in you that God cares about YOU!!!  In the meantime, you can start by reading this article. 

 

TO GOD BE THE GLORY FOREVER AND EVER--AMEN  Sound familiar?  It's the end of the Lord's Prayer that many of us have prayed countless times in our lives. 

 

Dawn for GLORY

 

PS  As Father reveals information about His plans for GLORY through Victoria or myself, I'll be sure to share His plans with you here!  In the meantime, you can help by praying for GLORY to become a reality just as soon as possible.  Many are hurting...........

 

 

 

 

 

What is the glory of God?

Question: "What is the glory of God?"

Answer: The glory of God is the beauty of His spirit. It is not an aesthetic beauty or a material beauty, but it is the beauty that emanates from His character, from all that He is. James 1:10 calls on a rich man to “glory in his humiliation,” indicating a glory that does not mean riches or power or material beauty. This glory can crown man or fill the earth. It is seen within man and in the earth, but it is not of them; it is of God. The glory of man is the beauty of man’s spirit, which is fallible and eventually passes away, and is therefore humiliating—as the verse tells us. But the glory of God, which is manifested in all His attributes together, never passes away. It is eternal.

Isaiah 43:7 says that God created us for His glory. In context with the other verses, it can be said that man “glorifies” God because through man, God’s glory can be seen in things such as love, music, heroism and so forth—things belonging to God that we are carrying “in jars of clay” (2 Corinthians 4:7). We are the vessels which “contain” His glory. All the things we are able to do and to be find their source in Him. God interacts with nature in the same way. Nature exhibits His glory. His glory is revealed to man’s mind through the material world in many ways, and often in different ways to different people. One person may be thrilled by the sight of the mountains, and another person may love the beauty of the sea. But that which is behind them both (God’s glory) speaks to both people and connects them to God. In this way, God is able to reveal Himself to all men, no matter their race, heritage or location. As Psalm 19:1-4 says, “The heavens are telling of the glory of God and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands; day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words; their voice is not heard. Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their utterances to the end of the world.”

Psalm 73:24 calls heaven itself “glory.” It used to be common to hear Christians talk of death as being “received unto glory,” which is a phrase borrowed from this Psalm. When the Christian dies, he will be taken into God’s presence, and in His presence will be naturally surrounded by God’s glory. We will be taken to the place where God’s beauty literally resides—the beauty of His Spirit will be there, because He will be there. Again, the beauty of His Spirit (or the essence of Who He Is) is His “glory.” In that place, His glory will not need to come through man or nature, rather it will be seen clearly, just as 1 Corinthians 13:12 says, “For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I shall know fully just as I also have been fully known.”

In the human/earthly sense, glory is a beauty or vibrancy that rests upon the material of the earth (Psalm 37:20, Psalm 49:17), and in that sense, it fades. But the reason it fades is that material things do not last. They die and wither, but the glory that is in them belongs to God, and returns to Him when death or decay takes the material. Think of the rich man mentioned earlier. The verse says, “The rich man is to glory in his humiliation, because like flowering grass he will pass away.” What does this mean? The verse is admonishing the rich man to realize that his wealth and power and beauty come from God, and to be humbled by the realization that it is God who makes him what he is, and gives him all he has. And the knowledge that he will pass away like the grass is what will bring him to the realization that God is the one from whom glory comes. God’s glory is the source, the wellspring from which all smaller glories run.

Since God is the one from whom glory comes, He will not let stand the assertion that glory comes from man or from the idols of man or from nature. In Isaiah 42:8, we see an example of God’s jealousy over His glory. This jealousy for His own glory is what Paul is talking about in Romans 1:21-25 when he speaks of the ways people worship the creature rather than the Creator. In other words, they looked at the object through which God’s glory was coming, and, instead of giving God the credit for it, they worshiped that animal or tree or man as if the beauty it possessed originated from within itself. This is the very heart of idolatry and is a very common occurrence. Everyone who has ever lived has committed this error at one time or another. We have all “exchanged” the glory of God in favor of the “glory of man.”

This is the mistake many people continue to make: trusting in earthly things, earthly relationships, their own powers or talents or beauty, or the goodness they see in others. But when these things fade and fail as they will inevitably do (being only temporary carriers of the greater glory), these people despair. What we all need to realize is that God’s glory is constant, and as we journey through life we will see it manifest here and there, in this person or that forest, or in a story of love or heroism, fiction or non-fiction, or our own personal lives. But it all goes back to God in the end. And the only way to God is through His Son, Jesus Christ. We will find the very source of all beauty in Him, in heaven, if we are in Christ. Nothing will be lost to us. All those things that faded in life we will find again in Him. Recommended Resource: Knowing God by J.I. Packer

 

Thoughts can heal???

I just watched this video and it is tremendous!!!  In fact, it explains how BodyTalk works.  We're taught in our BodyTalk classes that energy flows where intention goes.  God guiding my focused intent has been healing me; my family; and my clients for over 11 years.  Now the same process is captured on ultrasound!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Another word for what I'm talking about is FAITH!  When we as God's children come to Him and ask Him for help with a problem, BELIEVING that He will solve the problem in His superior way, HE WORKS!!

 

So, if you are sick, I urge you to pick out a Scripture verse from the Bible about healing (there are tons of them) and read it over and over and feel those words as applying to you.  Prepare your mind to be well and the body will change itself to come in line with our beliefs.   This is why I am still alive today!  This is what I did constantly when I lay dying nearly 12 years ago. 

 

This video is amazing and very well explained!!  I pray that everyone reading this will watch it with faith that God wants you well--that HE will heal you in your own individualized journey OR immediately by touching you with His Holy Spirit!!

 

We all want the instant healing but that may not be what is best for you.  As I lay dying in the Fall of 2006, I kept begging God to heal me instantly.  He kept saying, "No, you must learn much so that you can help others," and so I have.  It's up to God what method He uses to heal us but He WILL heal each and every one of us if we ask and believe that He wants us well!!

 

Watching this video will increase your faith--if you allow it to.  PLEASE accept God's best for you this very day!!

Dawn--survivor of incest; repeated miscarriages; cancer over and over; shingles twice (once on the brain), and lastly MS.  I'm walking in, by, and for HIS GLORY!!!! 

 

Have you heard of Marty?

Shabbat Shalom all my loves!!  Although we're not Jewish, the Bible says that God blesses those who bless the Jews and curses those who curse them.  That's all throughout the Bible actually.  So, although we're not Jewish, we love the Jews.  Also, we have kept the Bible Sabbath for over 22 years and love the blessings that have flowed into our lives as a result.

I really love Marty Goetz who is a "Real" Jew and one who loves Jesus as his personal Savior.  His music has blessed our family for over a decade.  Now his daughter sings with him too.

I hope that you will receive the blessing contained within this song!

Shabbat Shalom,

Dawn

Does this bug you too?

I have a pet peeve and it's when people send me emails implying that we're friends even though I have never spoken to them in my entire life! They write to me as though we've known each other FOREVER!!!!!

 

They start out like this, "Hey Dawn, how you doin'?  We haven't talked in weeks."  Or "Dawn, I've been missing you." OR "Dawn, let's sit down and talk!"  Then there's "Dawn, you really need to hear this!"  Really??  I'll decide what I need to hear and what I don't!

 

It's bugging me this morning, as I just got another one of them, so I decided to try to find something to help folks out.  Now, I'm not implying that any of my readers have bothered me like this.  However, it IS possible that there are others who are being bothered, so I'm sharing what I just found to help us ALL be a little bit less annoying.   

 

Happy today everyone!

Dawn
