Purpose of a fruit tree

There's this house that has some beautiful fruit trees in the yard. However, we never see them picking any when they're in season, nor will they even offer them to anyone else, that we know of. People have even asked if they could have some, but nah; won't give them away.  No, but they trimmed their trees and placed the branches to the street for the garbage truck.  Hopefully the garbage man was able to get some; I say this because he'd asked my husband to ask them if he could have some...Passersby took some of the branches home with oranges still attached. At least they didn't all go to waste.

 

Now I ask you; why not share? What's the harm in that?  You won't give them away or eat them yourselves, but you'll put them to the garbage?

 

What, pray tell, does that tell you about their character?  Benefit of the doubt: don't want to get involved with people? Scared of people?  Don't like sharing with strangers, what??

 

People are known by their 'fruits'; their character, how they treat others, what they believe in, the way they act, perform,...If their mouth says one thing, but their actions say another, DON'T BELIEVE WHAT THEY SAY! LOOK AT THEIR ACTIONS, WHAT THEY BELIEVE IN!  We're talking about your neighbors, family, relatives, politicians, anyone.

 

Let's quit allowing ourselves to walk in deception, be deceived.  PRAY AGAINST DECEPTION!  We're told what to believe, what to think, how to act; THINK FOR YOURSELF.  Where's our creative thinking been? What ever happened to using our brain??  We must research and learn things for ourselves: is this true,  is this false, is this a cover-up, what are they not telling us, WHY are they covering things up, WHY do they lie to us, what is the real agenda here?  Think about what's going on, look things up for yourself!  If you're hearing people say, "they're brainwashing us and using mind control", don't just ignore it; find out why they're saying this.  WHAT IF IT WERE TRUE?

 

Pray about who to listen to, who are the true Watchmen that God has set up for the believers in these times. Then when listening to someone, don't just blow it off; keep researching, keep looking into things, go deeper into finding out truths. 

 

Matthew 7:16-20 ¹⁶Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? ¹⁷Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. ¹⁸A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. ¹⁹Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. ²⁰Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them

 

 

Warning dreams....

During the early hours of this morning, I had a dream that was so frightening and realistic! 

The dream ~ 

My husband and I were in his truck in town when I looked up towards the sky; there were blackish/blue clouds and a large insect -looking creature that almost took up the whole sky.  It's hues were dark blues, dark purples, shades of black, and sort of shiny; it had huge wings, it's 'face' was facing to the left, it wasn't moving, but it looked fierce.  (Within a day or so of this dream, I saw an article/video about the “social-insect”: this is about all the social media knowledge they are collecting to use against us in the coming days), I asked my husband, "Do you see that?!" "YES."  I said, "It's here! It's starting!! Hurry up and ask the Lord to forgive us of any sins!!"  I looked to my right through the window and there was a young man, appeared to be in his 20's, wearing a white t-shirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes, casually walking on the right side of the street along the sidewalk when all of a sudden, an invisible something snatched him up into the air!  He was screaming and flailing, fearful....then he was just gone.  I thought, if this is the Lord, if this is the rapture, why aren't I going up? 

Right after that, ANOTHER man that was walking on the left side of the street was jerked up in the same way, screaming, legs and arms flailing, totally taken off guard!  This was occurring during the daytime!  The sky was darkened, but not everywhere else...I do know that way off to our front left there was commotion, people were troubled, peering up at the sky.

That's when I realized; Jesus isn't going to look like that in the sky! THIS WASN'T THE WORK OF JESUS'S RETURN!!  This was the wrath of Satan written in Revelations 12:12 ~ "..Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."  Whatever was abducting these people was invisible.

It shook me up so badly that I woke up with my heart pounding from fear! I started praying, pleading the blood of Jesus and asking the Lord to forgive me if I'd brought the dream upon myself, you know, if I'd done something I shouldn't have, wondering why...the fear quickly disappeared and I went back to sleep.

When I awoke around daybreak this morning, I thought about what had happened and how real it was.  I felt like it was a warning, that I'm supposed to share this with others, about what's to come, that it's soon:  Soon soon. 

I thought, "Who's gonna listen to me?  They're gonna say/think, 'Eh, it's just a dream, it's not gonna happen, blah blah blah."

Immediately I felt like the Lord said, "If I give you a warning to give to My people, and y-ou don' tell others because you're afraid of being mocked or scoffed at, and they get caught unawares..."

I knew the rest... 

Update:  I meant to add; I believe it was the next day or two- I read in David Paulides' post, author of Missing 411 which deals with all of the unexplained abductions in the National Parks and world wide, that a young boy totally disappeard while walking on thE side of a waterfall along with other children.  This was in Australia, actually. An Aboriginal tracker hired to help locate this child, said that the tracks of the boy went up the side of the trail and then just STOPPED.  He said it was as if it had been lifted into the air and just gone.

That's the exact same thing I dreamed! 

December 3, 2019 ~

This morning something occurred to me; could this dream be about "THE LIE" that Tom Horn and Cris Putnam wrote about in Exo-Vaticana : Petrus Romanus, Project L.U.C.I.F.E.R. and the Vatican's Astonishing Plan for the Arrival of an Alien Saviour published back in 2013? I've just started reading it this week.  According to what they have discovered, the Vatican is awaiting an Alien Savior to arrive from the sky. Sounds impossible, ridiculous, and we have denied and scoffed at UFO's for decades when the ufologists talked about it. Get the book. You decide. And how does this have anything to do with salvation, or the Bible?  They explain it all in their book. 

"Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: AND HE WILL SHEW YOU THINGS TO COME." John 16:13 (Emphasis: mine)

I had another dream, several years ago...

A giant dragon came up out of the sea, right in front of me, that time I wasn't afraid. The water splashed around him as he came up, I could see every scale, every detail.  He was looking to the left, then he turned his head to the right.  His eyes weren't like fire as in the movies but they appeared wise, like he had no fear in him.  I still remember it to this day, another realistic dream. 

When I got up that morning I wrote it down and searched the Word to see if there was anything about a dragon coming out of the sea.  Sure enough: 

"In that day the Lord with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea."  Isaiah 27:1

"Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters."  Psalm 74:13

Again I encourage you to read the book by Jamie Waldon, Omega Dynamics Equipping a Warrior Class of Christians for the Days Ahead... ~  Jamie is a Marine Corps Infantry Sergeant, Police Officer, Firefighter/Paramedic Specialists, Tactical Medic, and Disaster Response Specialist turned Missionary, researcher,....I'm still reading it, have to chew on it as you go, one of those kinds of books.  If you want to be prepared as a Warrior for Christ, this is one I highly recommend!

Just saying ~

And my name is Robin, in case you haven't already figured it out, the author of this blog ~ actually, the PUBLISHED author of this blog (that's what the icon says on top of my blogger when I want to post) am a (medically) retired RN, married for over 41 years to the same man, have children and grandchildren. My mom lives in the garage apartment behind our house (because she can), have brothers and sisters that love each other, our dad's with the Lord in Heaven.

A Robin's Song =  

Song= the musical phrases uttered by some birds, whales, & insects typically forming a recognizable & repeated sequence & used chiefly for territorial defence.

Defence= the action of defending from or resisting attack. military measures or resources for protecting a country. a means of protecting something from attack. fortifications or barriers against attack. the arrangement of defensive lines or fortifications so that they can defend each other.

Terretorial= relating to the ownership of an area of land or sea.

I feel like I should mention: back in the day, English books told us all of our sentences had to have a noun, verb, etc...Well, I write pretty much the way I speak, noun or verb whatnot. Still learning how to use the assets of this blogging machine. Soooo, thank you for joining me.

Why tell you anything at all...

Having lived all of my life where hurricanes are a common occurrence certain times of the year, we've learned what to expect when one is on it's way.  Thankfully now, the weather forecast informs us of what category it will be, 5 being the worst.  They will also tell us when to evacuate, what to do to prepare ahead of time, and so forth.  And even though people are warned, they don't always take it seriously; some stay and may die, or wish they'd left.  And yes, sometimes the hurricane isn't as bad as what the weatherman states, but what if it WAS?  Would you be willing to take that chance, or risk you or your family's lives on the basis of your "feelings"?  We can look at story after story about the people that have stayed and wished they'd left, or the ones that didn't take it seriously.  I for one want to be forewarned.

Even doctors 'forewarn' their patients before surgery, as in a life threatening surgery.  As a nurse, some patients even said, "I don't want to know the risks; just do it."

Would you want to be aware ahead of time when a catastrophic event was getting read to occur?  Or do you want to take your chances, that whatever's coming, you can handle it. 

What if it's something so outrageous, something you never thought of, that took you by surprise...something so horrible...

The Bible says that the end times will be worse than anything that has occurred since the beginning of time. [Matt 24:21]

I just tried to tell someone about what I've been learning about what's coming in the end times, what has been documented and researched by these men I've already told y'all about on these websites, ...  This person didn't care, didn't want to know, really didn't believe it, said they're just concerned about what goes on in their own little world and that I should do the same, that I should quit worrying about everybody else and just worry about myself.  And if those things do happen, they don't care cuz they're going to heaven anyway, and will face it when it comes, even if something grabs him/her, tears them to pieces. And the words, "what do you want me to do with this information; what is it you want from me?  There's nothing I can do about it!"

I'll tell you why I want to tell people what I know; I don't want people to be caught unawares; I WOULDN'T WANT TO BE!  I want people I love and care about to be so close to the Lord and so full of the Word of God, that they will know what scriptures/sword of the Spirit to proclaim when faced with demonic forces!  Going to heaven?  Praise God, I'm so glad, but we're still on this earth and God also says, "My people perish for lack of knowledge."  [Hosea 4:6] 

Sounds like to ME that God has every desire for us to have knowledge, and that about what we're about to face.

And if this event isn't what these guys are saying on the websites I already told y'all about don't happen?  All the better. But I think not.  I'd rather be prepared for a catastrophic event ahead of time.  I don't want to be one of those that "marvel" at what I see...I want to know. 

Before I had my spleen taken out, my surgeon said, you could die on the table and bleed out if we cut your splenetic artery...high risk...or your nutrition level is so low you'll probably not heal....I wanted to be told.  Then my goal was to cry out to God and find scriptures I could stand on that said, I shall live and not die and declare the works of the Lord,....I found several....I also found some that took care of me either way....and then I had peace, and knew I could face what was coming.  My life threatening event.

I want y'all to be prepared against fear.  The bible also says that people will faint from fear/terror and die because of it. No not everyone, but I tell you this; whenever fear comes to your heart, if it does, the only One that can give you the peace you need to where your heart won't feel like you're going to have a panic attack or worse, a HEART attack, it's the Word of God.

When fear has come to my heart and I've gone to the word, He always brings me to scriptures that are relevant to that particular fear.  And then peace comes, like I've gone into a high tower, a pavilion, a rock.  I looked up each of those words when I asked Him how can I go to something that's invisible??  Sometimes I think, I would love to be able to talk to someone about this or that! then the thought comes to me, the only one that can REALLY do anything for me is the Lord.  I have to first go to Him, because He knows EXACTLY what it is that will set me free.  Not saying we can't turn to a trusted person.  Just that I've learned that if I want something to go deep into me, it should come from the Lord first. 

Look up those scriptures that will be your sword for the coming days, and read the word again and again, day after day, pray without ceasing, doesn't have to be aloud.  Daniel prayed three times a day, if not all day.  And God revealed secrets to him.

Some about my earlier days...

I suppose I've always basically been a loner.  I had friends, but few were close.  Or that I allowed to get close.  One or two at a time, usually. 

I had a good family, grew up on the Bayou Tech country in south Louisiana on the outskirts of a small town.  Mom would take us to the library, which smelled of old books and I would escape into the world of the plantation days or ghost stories...Loved that small library.  Went back not long ago and it was no longer there, such is time.

We rode bikes all the way to the small country airport which was across from a small plantation looking home, acres of property, fenced in.  Weren't allowed on the airport grounds, of course, but there wasn't much else we didn't explore.  We made make believe houses out of the sugar cane when we weren't eating them on my best friend's back wharf on the bayou.  We'd go get her mom's small cutting knives and we knew that the darkest part of the cane was the sweetest which was near the roots.  The newer part of the cane, on the top, was bitter.  You have to cut the outside layer, like a cucumber, and inside is the sweet fiber which you cut into long sticks, like a carrot. MMMM  We did this until our OTHER neighbor's mom told us that the sugarcane workers told her we had to stay out, it was private property; we'd done this for years before we were told not to.

I learned to drive with our green bug Volkswagen all over the roads in the cane field, and we'd have that radio blaring.  No, no parent with us, my dad just LET me go!  Took the neighbors for a thrilling ride, we thought we were somethin'.

Where we lived, there were only a few houses at the time.  There was a home of girls across the street on the bayou, and on the side of our house, another family of girls.  I have a lot of regrets about my handling of my friends in those days.  If any of you are reading this, please forgive me.  Because of my own insecurities, I didn't play fair, let's just say that.  I wanted everyone to like ME, not befriend someone else MORE than me.  So I know I've hurt some of them during those times.  Yes, I was young.  But still.

There were huge oak trees all over our near acre property which stood in front of these acres and acres of cane fields.  Had brothers and sisters to play with, good neighbors, we were always imaginative and having fun.  Never heard my parents argue, we ate well, was provided for...

All that to say, this...then WHY did I end up feeling unloved, unwanted, ugly, and thought everyone hated me by the time I turned 14-ish? I was never abused by anyone, but I felt rejected. 

By the time I was a senior in high school, we'd moved about 30 minutes away because of my dad's new job, to a larger town.

Meeting new people, it was awful.  I was SO shy, so tormented that I seldom if ever smiled unless I was with a close friend.  Around the 10th grade, when I was alone, I would cry out, "Oh God, PLEASE change me!! PLEASE change me! I can't live like this anymore, I don't want to be me, I want to change!"  I didn't know what to do about it.  I didn't know I could find peace and acceptance through Christ.  We were raised Catholic but I never had any of my prayers answered except one:  when I'd prayed when we lived in Colorado for a rosary and someone gifted me one.  But when I would pray to Mary, no prayers were ever answered, and I grew tired of saying the same thing over and over on the rosary.

I'd tried so hard when I was around 9 years old to be good, like Saint Theresa, after I'd read a book about her.  But after 3 days, I failed with my childish sins and knew I could never be good enough to be a saint like her.

Everyone loved my mom; she was also from the same area we lived in but next town over, along the bayou. She was friendly, fun, high school sweet heart, homecoming queen....well, try to live up to THAT!  lol  All my friends wanted to be around HER, I felt more than me, but I couldn't blame them.  I wasn't much fun in my own estimation, right?  They all wanted her to be THEIR mom.  She's been living with us since 2009, helping out with me during my long health issues and now lives out in apartment behind our house, back in her own hometown areas, what a blessing she's been to each of her kids, I tell ya.

Ok, where was I going with this.

Oh yeah...let's cut to it...By the time I was in the twelfth grade, I found the Lord! And he's brought me through trial after trial, like a school, till when I take the test, I pass it, then onto the next class....It never ends.  :)  I think I wrote in another post how that came about...

*sigh* enough for now....If you have any questions, or if I've left something out, write in the comments and I'll try to get to that.

 

"Who hath believed our report?..."

Actually, throughout the Bible, God has prophets to announce warnings to His people, in the Old Testament it was the Isrealites, Hebrews; now we're included, those whose names were written in the book of life from the foundation of the world [Rev. 13:8 & 17:8]... those who have been chosen of God, by His grace that have accepted Jesus Christ of  Nazareth, the Son of the one true God, into their hearts and have turned from their sins, believing in the full gospel. 

And as these prophets proclaim (ed) the warnings of the wrath of God upon the disobedience and sins of men, they either repented or did for a season, then returned to their wicked ways.  Not all, but many.

OK.

The Lord reveals secrets to His people, and hidden things of darkness are/will be brought out into the light.

In these times, in these days, for many years, and especially NOW, truths, secrets, and hidden things are being brought out into the light.  Not everyone will believe the reports. Not everyone will repent even tho the truth is staring them in the face.  It will be so 'fantastical', so unbelieveable, that the world will marvel, be amazed, astounded. Caught off guard, unless they listen to what these present day prophets/teachers are TRYING to warn us about, make us AWARE of.

Over my own lifetime, I've had many provisions, answered prayers take place.  The Lord has spoken to me, well, all of my life, but until I became a born again Christian [John 3:3 Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.  John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.], I didn't realize it. Does that make any sense?  As I continued to draw nigh unto Him, and have a personal relationship with Him, I continued to recognize when it was Him speaking to me. The Holy Spirit within me TAUGHT/TEACHING me.

As I've mentioned before, when I started crying out to God that I didn't want to be deceived, a change began to take place...I started feeling convicted about spending hours on end on entertainment through the different internet movies, shows, et al.  When I didn't stop immediately, I began to lose total interest, there was NOTHING I WANTED TO WATCH ANYMORE!!

Then I began reading, or watching Youtube videos, or podcasts, all about what was going on right in the open, so to speak, all over the world.  I've found Christian speakers that stood on the full word of God, like the Lord was edging me towards the RIGHT speakers, not those that were full of hogwash, right? 

How did I know they weren't deceiving me, as I've stated in previous posts, I go to the Word of God, the Bible, and I pray, and as He PROMISES, He reveals things to us, little by little, line upon line, precept upon precept. [Isaiah 28:10 & 13]

I'm going to start sharing more of what God has done during my life.  I'm learning for my own self, that when I hear what God has done in someone elses' life, it creates in me a desire to be that close to Him, too, and to have Him,....well, you get where I'm going with this, right?
