THE WOODPECKER MAY HAVE TO GO

My art

I have been painting oil paintings for years and now I have started a web site...please feel free to go look around...more will be coming soon. charlenesart.webs.com

The word say's the rocks will cry out if we don't praise Him

Good granny...It has been ages since my last post. I am a terrible blogger...actually since I found facebook I have been a terrible blogger, but I still read blog's. I guess I am a nosey person and have to get involved in a sneaky way in peoples lives. LOL Had a good Christmas and now I am ready for spring. Had some snow storms and it was lovely now is it ready for some flowers... but I guess I am pushing it. Hope everyone is good. I will try and not wait so long for a post

And so it tis the season and it feels like snow out side....burrr I'm not sure I am ready for snow just yet...but I am getting there. Hope you all are haveing a great autumn...I love Fall, the tree colors are beautiful. Not much more to say just dropping by to say hi and will write more when something exciting happens like winning the lottery....I'm goin to win ya know....

The Word of God say's "beer is brawling and strong drink (whiskey) is raging"..I remember watching my mom drink beer and she was almost all the time just happy and mellow if she stuck to beer...but..if she drank whiskey well let's just say the evening would usually go to hell in a hand basket real quick like. On more then a one occasion I saw her completely demolish our apt. and then have to clean it up in the morning. Yes my relationship with alcohol started early. She would take me to the tavern with her when I was 12 years old and I didn't mind it so much cause the old men would give me quarter's all nite and all the grape soda I could drink. Boy am I glad they don't let you take your kids to the bar anymore. She meant well. She was following the generational curse of alcoholism that ran deep in her family line.
I saw alcohol destroy the marriage's in her brother's lives and her life. I saw it destroy my niece's life when she got in the car with a drunk and she never made it home. Altho she made it to her heavenly home. I saw alcohol put my son in jail for 30 days and then probation for 5 years with 10 years of prison hanging over his head if he messed up. I saw alcohol put a gun to my sister's head when her husband was wasted and then it ruined the rest of his life cause he lost his marriage to her and never forgave himself for it.
Yes it can seduce you into thinking it is fun..the Word say's "Sin is fun for a season" but then it is going to rear it's ugly head one day and bite you in the...you know where. It will destroy your health and all your relationship's, because it is a counterfeit to the real thing. What I mean by that is God want's us to have fun...you haven't had real fun untill you have lay ed on the floor with such uncontrolable laughter because of the Spirit of God is all over ya. Well I have experienced that and let me tell you there is no comparing the two. The Word say's " don't be drunk with wine, but be filled with the Spirit". Does God not want us to have fun? No that is not the case...He just know's it is a counterfeit and satan uses it to suck you in and then destroy you. So I will continue to fight the good fight on behalf of my family and that generational curse. I love my family and I am not going to sit idly by and let satan have them without a fight. I know the truth ..he is defeated and we have the victory. Faith is the Victory.

Fall

Ah the beautiful colors of Fall....LOve it and the cool air and the smells...but I hate the cold of winter, but one good thing of winter...it makes you love to see spring and summer. Yes I love the four season's/ I could never live where there are only 2 season's. I lived in Alaska for 6 months and felt like I was on a differant planet. some people loved it ,but not me. Looking forward to the rapture of the church...Ha bet I just lost some of ya. That's ok..but it is not ok if you miss the rapture..won't be a pretty picture after the church is gone. You want to be sure you are in the first load that goes up. Ok that is enough...hope you all are having a great weekend it is a three dayer for me...Yippee

Other then that I am getting broke in again. Usually takes a couple of weeks, but this summer I exercised all summer and I really felt the differance. I am looking forward to next summer...LOL
