So That Your Soul Says Thanks

 ~HortenseInspiration SERMONETTE


Behold THE ERA OF FALSE Teachers. They will take on many forms, physical and invisible. They will be loud in pulpits and on preacher-rounds and stadium arenas. They will scream loudest with the aid of electronic technology. Demons will infiltrate people and carry out Satan's message. Demons will pretend to take up causes that are dear to you to gain entry in your mind. To ensnare you. To blind your eye and heart, freeze your mind and set you up for deep distress. Any pastor who tells you demons do not exist does not need to have your ears. Leave from his guidance. Jesus Christ is the Truth. The Lord sent his followers to "heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons" (Matthew 10:8, Holy Bible). Jesus is not a liar. God cannot lie. The WORD is TRUTH.

Satan is the father of lies. BEWARE. We are in a season called The Age of Deception. The demons will look like normal people. Some will have great persuasive voices. Some will have charm and personality dripping off them. Run away! Take heed that you are not led astray. Dont be easy to mislead. Especially by adoring pastors, demigods and celebrated idols. Many of such are self seeking. If a person's position does not align with the Word of God, including the Commandments of Yahweh, given to Moses, in the Old testament, that person is on the side of wrong. It is either good or evil: Almighty God gave these two sides since the beginning of time. God Almighty makes no allowance for "gray areas" sin in the Bible. 

Remember, not even your pastor can save you or die in your place. People will run away and hide, leaving you to your own fate. This is  how life goes. Only God is for you completely. The Bible has warned about "False Teachers". Even the best of pastors and preachers is still only a flawed human being. LOOK TO JESUS for complete and final guidance. Human beings carry a tendency to have their own agenda. You are Christ agenda. Make Jesus Christ your agenda. All else is secondary. Therein lies your peace. And your soul in eternity will thank you. Much love from my end.

An Old Woman's Musings

Is it true the heart wants what it wants? Do you believe so? Talk to me! Does your heart keep insisting what it wants. Talk to me. Better still tell yourself what your heart insist it must have. Should it? 

~HortenseInspiration Once Uponar Time

I MISS LIBERIA all the time. I miss what my birth country was. I miss how the people were. I miss the uniqueness of our way of life. I miss baby life in Careysburg. I miss toddler life and Kindergarten in Gbarnga. I miss every year three-month vacation in Bensonville/Bentol. I miss gorgeous Liberia. I am a Cape Palmas girl, raised right there on Maryland Avenue, from 6 years to 12 years old, elementary and first year of high school, Harper City. Then I went on to Ricks Institute. Oh how I miss being on the mission. Those were absolutely my wonder years. I miss Liberia. I miss Monrovia. Oh how I love love love Monrovia!!! I miss University days at LU. I miss riding the buses back and forth to Science College and days at Fendall Campus. I miss living around 72nd area. I miss walking from Paynesville Red Light along Somalia Drive. Aye mehn! Liberia. Liberia! Liberia. My heart gone way back soon this morning. I guess underneath all the travels and living abroad and the Western lifestyle, I am just a little Liberian girl turned full grown Liberian women turned Liberian senior citizen in the making. Still mussing what is gone forever... Being Liberian in the First Republic. Yes, my friend. I miss Liberia. And those people that are causing the "next to impossible for life to return to normal in Liberia" I take God to beg your. Your please try, at least...
I know. There's always other alternatives. I believe, home is wherever you make home. I love dearly my America. It is my greatest joy living here and to call here home. My America has been awesome and continues to be great for me. USA is my numero uno. A heart full of gratitude and patriotism, forever, I owe America. Still. Deep inside me is a constant yearning for the African way of life. The "this is Africa oo" lifestyle. As it is lived on the African Continent! I cannot seem to shake this hunger. Even when I starve the desire the pangs remain. I thirst for Africa. I also know there are good "another African country" options. I hunger for African lifestyle. Do you feel this way sometimes? Many times? Often? Every now and then? Talk to me.
Much love my friend. Blessings!
