FRAME the VISION

"Lift up NOW your eyes and look from the place from where you are" In other words God was instructing Abraham to get a vision of where he wants to be. (Gen 13) And God asked Jeremiah "More over the word of the Lord came to me saying 'Jeremiah, what do you see?'" God does not want me to stay where I am, as I am. With my indwelt Holy Spirit leading, I should be able to look back at 2010 and shout WOW! Look at what the Lord has done since last Christmas. "Write the vision and make it plain on paper - for vision is yet for an appointed time!" Habbakuk 2:2 --- When opportunity presents itself, it is too late to prepare! The time is NOW to get ready to enter the VISION you have been given. My vision is to be of service, to make a difference in the lives of people who live in Mexico. So before I travelled to Ajijic, Mexico on December 25, 2009 - photo's and video's of the area were saved on this blog site. Once I had a dream board where I cut pictures out and pasted things I wanted. One was to someday have a new home built and choose my colors, and another was to be a published author. My plan to travel to Ajijic and investigate the purchase of a retirement home, did not include the possibility of building a new home. God knows my heart and He did not forget my dream! The map I ordered of Mexico arrived in the mail and I began hanging photo's of Lake Chapala at work and at home. From Thanksgiving 2009 through Christmas eve 2009 ....... I thought about what God has in store for me. Perhaps write a mini-book in Spanish and give it away in Mexico someday? Then I ordered the Babylon product to translate what I write into Spanish, and I signed up for some group classes at church to surround myself with people of faith. My task is to write one hour per day and picture myself in Mexico, speaking with a Spanish interpreter to an excited youthful audience about God's plan to use the willing for His purposes. ABBA FATHER thank you for your unknown but certain plans to prosper me! AMEN

  2. "You lazy fool, look at an ant. Watch it closely; let it teach you a thing or two...so how long are you going to laze around doing nothing? How long before you get out of bed? A nap here, a nap there, a day off here, a day off there, sit back, take it easy ---do you know what comes next? Just this: You can look forward to a dirt-poor life, poverty your permanent house guest!" Proverbs 6:6-11 --- "Tomorrow will never prepare me for the publishers call today!" Barbarito
