Expect You MIRACLE Today & Every Day or You Might...

Only those who expect MIRACLES in every part of every day....live lives filled with MIRACLES and far more graces & Blessings than the average person alive on earth.

We receive what we we expect.

If you or I wake up anticipating bad news...

Guess what your phone will ring all day with problems.

For everyone who knows that Johnny or Jane expects days filled with problems....
Others assume that Johnny & Jane are exactly who they are to call & visit with every single delima that not only they personally encounter...

But recommend Johnny & Jane to each person they meet and greet along every single street whether in Ponchatoula Louisiana...
Or on the coast of Madagascar, Nigeria, Malawi, Egypt, India or Yugoslavia.

Earth geography never limits God's laws of deliverance, blessing or prosperity.

Nor is God ever limited by our circumstances.

We can always accept less than God's best and settle for what others are content with....

Or we can reach out for HIS greater gifts.

Jesus said:  "Far greater things than these you shall do...
For I go to my Father at HIS right hand and anything I ask is mine anything you ask in my Name My Father & I shall do for you & through you!"

Even Some Catholics Confused About Pro-Life / Pro-Choice ...Abortion....Are Living Lies in Every Area of Their Existence!

When a person allows themselves to believe that by not voicing their opinion...by not committing their position publicly..typically upon the grounds "I don't have the right to press my views onto others...

These persons without realizing it make themselves just another death statistic.

Such a person has allowed the trials of life to deaden their hearts from the cruel realities of truth within the society that every living being is a part of whether they want to be or not.

I was wearing  a button pinned to my bright pink jacket that reads: PRAY FOR ABORTION TO END!"
 At a Graduation lunch in a New Orleans Catholic Parish the Sunday following Father's Day 2013...I was astounded the responses I received & conversation it spawned.

I expect this kind of confrontation if & wear it to the grocery store but not to Catholic Holy Mass & to a party of Catholic Families at a Catholic Church.

I was told that "Even if I personally would not abort my child, I don't have the right nor do you have right to suggest to others what they should do!"

Well is preaching & teaching the Holy Gospel suggesting to folks a better way to live???

And so this statement contradicts the entire life of a christian for we are called to always live by the Holt Scriptures that say:  "Let the redeemed of the Lord say so!"

Let HIS life, HIS joy, HIS mercy which endures forever never cease from parting from our lips!

We are to be imitators of God who calls each by name and who speaks good things into being at all times....
We are to like God embracing all that befalls us with great FAITH...speaking hope to the hopeless and life into the dead!

I pray you see this contradiction that we all plainly see and hear all over where ever we go...

Maybe you never thought of in this perspective.

 I pray that today this very moment that you will no longer be indecisive and that you will embrace life with a new hope and a new vitality as you start opening your mouth in every situation that you witness and support those who are marginalized..support life ans support truth and righteousness always and God's mantle of protection, blessing and anointing upon you and your life will become stronger & stronger and your trails of challenges will no longer be a valley of death for you & those you know & love...but your trails of trials and challenges will be marked with HIS victory after victory and triumph!

EstherStephanada!

Brennan's Only One Chapter of The Wealth of The Wicked Is Laid Up For The Just!



Date: Sun, Jun 30, 2013 at 6:12 AM


This craziness about Brennan's closing on Royal Street  is just one example on how greed, selfishness, and self-righteousness will always bring one's self down into the pit eventually.....simply having an address on a Street with such a name as "Royal" makes most folks eventually big headed, proud no different than Lucifer who was not content to have 3 offices in heaven before God...Lucifer said he was just as good as God and could do things better or as good.

So the foretold prophesy that all proud will be humbled is playing out here in New Orleans and the closing of Brennan's just one chapter.

All big giants who have no regard for their community and individuals they employ will ever remain large forever.

This should be an example to all that even these large corporations such as WalMart whose founder Sam Walton was content making a small profit on large volume for he cared about the poor....now such corporations are merely riding on their former reputation which is today a fallacy for WalMart no longer operates with the same values that Sam Walton built his corporation upon.
I have actually in recent years witnessed the disabbled/handicapped employees who Sam Walton had compassion for now required to do tasks which they physically are not capable which violates Federal & State Laws.

Today WalMart hires such persons for Tax Write Offs, but then does not full fill their obligation to them.

Such individuals figure if they take WalMart to court that it would cost them more financially, more phyisically and emotionally than they have within themselves and the task would simply kill them. And where else would they find employment.

There was a time when WalMart was willing to pay bennefits to their employees but now refuse to hire folks for enough hours that they could qualify for benefits.

Anyone who abuses their position of authority or their position within the over all economy will eventually as the scripture declares that God will entrap the wicked with their own devices...

I know many think that WalMart will never fail.

But folks thought that of MacDonalds hamburgers and they have reported loses in recent times for the first time ever!

Burger King announced that they lose money selling the 99 cent hamburger to compete with the Dollar menus of other fast food companies and who would have thought companies such as these who have gone "Global" and harmed the health of now not just Americans who eat too much of this high fat high salt diet...

But now the disease of obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes etc that were common in the United States are more prevalent in countries that now have their own fast food hot spots thanks to American greed for money and expansion.

Microsoft actually now requires new consumer.customers who purchase their computers to sign agreeing to never be part of a class action against Microsoft in order to operate the product they just purchased.

And their Windows 8 is designed such that you must have a Microsoft email account to even turn your computer on and type a Word Document which means Mr. Microsoft & his employees can spy on you even when you type a private letter to your Aunt Suzy or Aunt Jane. Not just when you do Email or FAcebook.

Everyone should write their SEnators and Congressmen & Congresswomen on this one which is a serious invasion of privacy.

So the slow crumble of a New Orleans tradition of greed & feed is just one chapter in the future transfer of wealth that is Biblical & prophesied.

"The wealth of the wicked is laid up for the just"

Our Choices Decide Whether Our Trails Are Treck Are Filled With Blessings And MIRACLES As We Choose To Be Vessels Through Which God Grants MIRACLES to Others

You have heard the hummmmmDrummm too of those who refuse to be kind yet are alone in life.

Those who have lots of stuff filling their closets to the point they will not close...
Who wonder why nothing good ever comes their way...

But the reality is God sends them many persons who can full fill their most intimate prayers or dreams...

But they push away God's most precious gifts to themselves with their refusal to receive newcomers into their hearts.

Folks often pray for a new friend a soul mate but when God brings new folks through their town...
They scrutinize and analyze each like with a microscope and so they continue to ask God when God when...and their blinders on...they never see them until they finally shake their dust and move on.

Though we must not be afraid of what others will say or think,
Nor can we be controlled by other's opinions are talk of us.

We who desire to be chases down by both blessings and MIRACLES that never cease but only keep multiplying with our joyful smiles and laughter in spite of devils who seek and track us...
We must keep on keeping on singing regardless who is murmuring behind our backs.

As we heard in last Sunday's Gospel the Lord was not concerned of who what about who HE is...
And so shall we must be continuing to bless others with our smiles and songs...there will always be someone like our former next door neighbor Veronica on Alvin Callender Street when we with God were building our home...

She came outside yelling one day not able to understand how not even hers & her nephews hateful actions against us could not kill our spirits.

She came outside as I was singing new songs through joyful tears...tears that our neighbors were trying to stifle the rebuilding of our home.
What we had completed the day before our neighbors had punched holes into in the night...

But I sang new songs to the God above knowing HE who watches through the night from HIS throne up above not only saw the crimes against us in the night but had the power to restore not only that which the angry jealous locusts had stolen...

They who were filled with jealousy, anger and hate and have never been loved nor have loved themselves....
No different than the Ponchatoula local native neighbors who say out of one side of their mouth that they are going to build Ponchatoula into a thriving economic marketing business center, yet they tie up themselves in bondage that they cannot grow...

By shunning newcomers who choose to make Ponchatoula home!

No town or city will ever grow & prosper past the point they are today without welcoming new citizens not only physically into their neighborhoods, and into the community and church families.

Regardless how many families come and are shunned they will eventually move on in the same numbers or even more.

For every family and community has both sincere and insincere folks whom they call their own.

Those whose hearts are pure but were born within a thorny city among hateful tit-tat chatter boxes who love not...
Eventually these too will choose to move onto a better place where they will not be embarrassed by their previous associations whether blood or geographic.

No they will follow the lead of those who come full of life seeking to bless an entire community when they first arrived...but refuse to live an entire life time among grumblers and wishy -washy complainers.

As Joyce Meyer has taught over the years....one can choose to complain and remain and go around and around a same old mountain of a pill.
Or you & I and each of us can reach out and beyond our circumstances for another new dream...when others fight to long and hard resisting thy kindness and blessing...
As Jesus said:  "Shake of their dust and move on..."

Such cities will never grow but as Sodom & Gomorrah will be your town or city who shuns the hearts who of those who enter bearing kindness and generosity of their grateful loving hearts...
Such a town or city will never grow but die  from their own choices....their own deception...

The fruit never falls far from the tree and the selfish resentful hearts wither and never blossom but rather their self-righteousness they fatten and fluff and spread as an eagle spreads its wings...
Then they go around time gloating convincing themselves and each other that they together did a good thing.

But did they really...their own dreams they have stifled for God always full fills dreams through another..often through the newcomer along your streets whom you never bothered to receive into your hearts...but pressed them hard to move on

How long must our Lord send you folks to rejuvinate you before you will sing with them...
How many more will have to come and move on before you will receive new wine into your hearts spirit?

How long will you live the same routine?  When will you open your heart that your joy too can be complete?

A Warning To Everyone For When You Open New Online Accounts....Humorous Consequences That Can Make For More Dangerous Circumstances If Not Caught or Corrected...

Anyone who has known my husband William and I for any length of time know that for my first 49 years of iife that I had physical tunnel vision for real!!   Yes REALLY!
 
That I only saw a small portion of any one's faces at a time, and that I was raised as a sighted child because my parents would not acknowledge my challenges for they were ashamed of "who or what I was."
 
And that on the Feast of the Holy Family 2009 I received a Eucharistic MIRACLE in my eyes and have enjoyed given thanks & praise for nearly three and a half years of landscapes and full length drapes!
 
So I have done some amazing things for someone who literally at times could not see what was under her ow nose!
 
I graduated from Grace King High School without ever having read much with understanding.
To satisfy my mother I sat on my bed for hours just every once in a while turning a page....
But since what was printed in those books made no sense to me and I could not see...
 
That time was not wasted... for in my heart I was not in a chair at a desk nor was I lounged on my bed reading...
I was conversing with my Lord my God and your God...
I would ask HIM to fill my heart and mind with whatever I needed to know...to stay safe at home, school or on the school bus...
Walking down hills or through my neighborhood.
 
A friend who I had not been in touch with for quite some time sent me an invite to open a "  LinkedIN " account.
Happy to hear from her I did just that thinking I could take my time that there would be no hurry to build a resume for myself and at a future date possibly this could help me grow a licensed business with  income doing what I enjoy the most...free-motion embroidery, crochet and writing.
 
But what happened was as I opened this "Linked IN " account, I was interrupted.
And as always, I embraced my interruption... as you do too... 
Took care of whatever it was my husband need that time....
 
I do my share of asking him questions that too for him are not at the best timing...
It happens in all marriages in all kinds of friendships...
 
There is no fault placing here...  No anger or frustration but rather jovial laughter and entertainment...
Life is much easier when one can laugh at and with themselves...
But what happened since I did not stay with the program as I first began opening this Linked IN account was it automatically sent invitations to everyone who I ever wrote an email to from the first date I opened this email address.   And not only to these who I possibly only wrote once ever, some were business inquires that I never thought about again in over 5 years.
 
Other auto invitations went to folks who I never wrote but their email address was attached to one of those cutesy poems with pictures many just keep forwarding and forwarding over and over...certainly none of these I ever thought would one day show up as "CONNECTIONS"
 
And since I at times post to my blogs not signed into blogger but from my email as I am doing now...
Linked IN posted connection requests to my blogs for about a 5th time last night.
 
So instead of going into Blogger and removing those comical posts  "MrsStephanie............invites you to CONNECT"  from my blogs...
I am leaving Linked IN right there...
Instead I will post this on all of them...
 
And make a game of it...
 
But it could have serious consequence when an unsent invite is accepted by someone who is worse than unpleasant.
 
I HAVE CUT OF several CONNECTIONS....some without any explanation.
 
Check your email contact list for many email systems save all information as your potential contacts even though you do not routinely write email to them nor they to you.
And you can possibly also have your account hacked into through these odd seemingly insignificant addresses that seem not worth even giving time to DELETE!
 
But do it!  DELETE DELETE!
And when you open new accounts do not let systems access your contact lists, manually type the ones you want to communicate with the new account and you will have fewer headaches of             SPAM JAMS...
 
And you will not have to check your new account more often than you would have liked to to make certain you have no spying new connections...that maybe unsafe for you...
As happened to me!
 
But the Lord will always keep us free indeed with out needs HE cannot nor will not meet...
And when the devil does raise his head....
 
Whether a cyber spyer...a marriage divider...or simply folks who some how did not learn or remember from Kindergarten how to introduce themselves and ask others their names....
I guess till Jesus comes back there will be those who try to force themselves upon others instead..
 
When anyone is rude, crude, or  speaks with forked tongue...
Remember our Lord said to cut off the hand that causes us to sin...
 
Don't you wish that it was as easy to get rid of all of these....as pushing or clicking a DELETE BUTTON!

Every Single Day Each of Us Has The Chance To Over Come Challenge!

Each one of us daily and often even many times each day will be confronted with a problem...
or an issue that may seem over bearing!

Often it is a difficult person most of these are difficult because they are not happy in their own lives...
You have heard it said:  "MISERY LOVES COMPANY!"

Many who are unhappy today whether male or female are divorced.
While some marriages break up because either he or she was involved in drugs...
And the drug user never gives up their habit...

This is not the case for the majority of broken marriages...
Most that deteriorate are because both he & she were in too big of a hurry to get married and did not know each other well enough...

They were so lonely & in a hurry to marry they became unevenly yoked and they found they had too many irreconcilable differences.

Often when you or I have a person in our life who is unreasonable, showing them compassion for their situation even in a business relationship which ought to be "just business"...

But their bitterness and jealousy of you gets in their way of doing for you what they are required to...
Showing them compassion will at times win for you a better working relationship for a while.

But other times doing so just makes things messier and whether it is your landlord, realtor, or maybe your direct boss at your place of employment...

While showing a bit of compassion goes a long way with some folks...
Extending compassionate kindness to some will cause them to drag out everything they are supposed to do anyway pressing for social yak yak yak...

And when you find this...sometimes in some cases when you have a choice it may be better to go take your business somewheres else where they appreciate customers and are not oppressive into ones personal affairs.

But God will always show us the best way around a situation or the best path through it when we take each and every circumstance we face...
Each obstacle that befalls us to HIM in prayer...

Sometimes HE will make the way for us to simply bow out...and walk or ride into the sunset.
We can always not let our obstacles become grave stones...
But with our attitude of approach...
Turn every would be grave stone into a stepping stone of hope!
