Dear Father,

Thank You!  Thank You for another day.  Thank You for the simple things in a complex world.  Thank You for continuing to care for us.  Thank You for Your great love, Father.  We are overwhelmed by You.  I went outside this morning and it was quite warm.  I pray the rest of the snow and ice melts off of our roof soon.  On the bright side, You told me that this shelf keeps me ‘looking up’.  Too funny!

I had to do some cleaning at the feeders this morning.  There was quite a lot of activity outside last night.  The whole setting was basically rearranged by either the deer or the racoons.  When I began to clean everything up, at least fifteen red squirrels ran over to me to see if I was carrying any breakfast for them with me.  They came from all over.  I could see them running from the lower yard, up the road and through the trees.

Once I started to feed them, the fighting began.  I made my exit as I heard some wrestling.  I learned last summer to wear gloves and boots to go out.  I also learned not to make eye contact.  When I went inside, it was blissfully quiet compared to the activities at the feeders.  I then looked up at the bird feeders.  It was peaceful there.  The birds took turns eating and it was so wonderful to see.  I then heard You speak…

Jesus:  “This is why you must not stay focused on things below, but of the things above.  This is because there is no comfort in the things of this world.  The only comfort is in that which is above and in He who sits on the Throne in Heaven.  There is also the comfort of My Voice in you.

“Erin, I am with you.  Keep your eyes fixed on My promises as these are true.  Give Me both your days and your nights.  I will perfect these for My Glory.  I am in your quiet moments, but also in the times when you say, ‘Lord, are You there?’  Well, yes, I am.  Now keep your eyes fixed on Me.  I am here.”

Dear Father,

Thank You for another day!  Thank You for caring for our house.  We are so grateful.  Thank You for watching over all of our Nest families.  You continue to keep us and we are so thankful for You.  It has been a very difficult week.  I have been physically unwell.  Our home has been battered.  There have been ominous storms.  However, You, Father, continue to make the threats non-life-threatening.

In other scary news, more than 100 rockets have been launched at Israel.  Passover has begun and this is Your Holy Week.  There have been so many worldly problems and scandals that it is difficult to focus that You are God our Father over all things and that You reign from Your Throne in Heaven.  You see all things and You know what the wicked have done against Your people.  Please don’t wait another season, Father.

Please let this be the due season.  Let it be.  The world is plunging downward so rapidly.  Your children, Your people, are in the crosshairs of the wicked.  Father, please turn the tables on our evil accuser and chief liar.  Please vindicate all of us who love You, as well as those who are unable to speak or testify to Your goodness.  Father, You are always good.  You never change.

While You are unchanging, You can still do a new thing.  This is because You are creative.  I look around my home and I can clearly see Your hand has been over it all.  You are the God who knits, weaves, prints, writes, paints, shapes and molds.  You are a Creative Designer that uses fully functional beauty.  On top of all Your skills, You inspire and grow this into something wonderful… all for Your Glory.

Who is like You, Father?  In contrast, the enemy is the destroyer.  The only thing he knows how to create is more and more evil.  He incubates wicked ideas.  He hatches evil plots.  He lies, distorts and makes everything dark.  He is truly the Anti-Christ.  He is against all of Your Creation.  Father, I love You.  I can’t wait for the wonderful creative Promised Land of Heaven You made for Your children.

What an awesome place You have made for us.  Oh Lord, we are so thankful.  Speaking of ‘earthly promised lands’, I find myself missing Bend OR a lot these days.  My heart aches for this place.  While I long for Heaven more, this is the best the world can offer for me personally.  I pray our time there soon unfolds.

Jesus:  “Erin, come up!”

He once again spoke to me while I sat in my devotional chair.  His Voice was very clear.

Jesus:  “Erin, I am here and I am with you.  Why do you cry?”

Me:  “I long for something this world no longer has here.  I miss my home in Oregon.  Lord, while I know it isn’t time for me to be there today, I so miss the smells, the warmth of the sun and the mountains there.  I just miss the promise You had placed upon my heart that, one day, we would have a home there with my children.  I am now older.  I’ve been gone for 14 years and my children are now grown.  So many have moved to Bend OR now that it is not affordable.  Well, it wasn’t back then either, but I still hope.”

Jesus:  “Then go a little higher than your hopes.  I am here.  Do you think My promises are true, Erin?”

Me:  “Yes, Lord.  However, it just seems so impossible right now.  My dreams of all I thought would have happened by now still have not happened.  You have had a different way for us.  I just miss a time before when there was excitement and possibilities for a future.  The world is now a place I do not like much.  The world is full of liars, deceivers, thieves and destroyers.  This is such a tough place to raise children.”

Jesus:  “Erin, you, your family and the Nest are all accounted for by Me, the ‘Chief Accountant’.  This is good as My promises are true and fully accounted for.”

Communion

Dear Father,

Thank You for another day!  Thank You for my husband, children and our Nest family.  We are so grateful.  My heart overflows with love in a way I never thought possible.  I was once so shattered and in darkness before Your Great Love came into our lives.  For most of my life, I heard lies spoken about You.  I often wonder what could have been if I had only known then what I know now.

In general, life here is so ironic… when young, we don’t want to, but can… when old, we want to, but can’t.  In my youth, strength, health and confidence were on my side.  My talents were varied and the world was literally an oyster to me.  However, I am now unable, my strength is moderate, my health is poor and I am no longer confident in myself.  My talents are not what they once were.

God has removed these from being my primary focus.  Right now, eternity is my oyster and God is a Priceless Pearl within it.  To the world, God is nothing but a myth.  However, to Me, You are everything.  I am so sorry that I was such a hard empty shell of a person.  You have had to work so long and hard on me.  You gave me a dream/vision this morning that was incredible…

Sub-Dream/Vision 1 “The Shucker and His Pearls” begins…

I saw an Oyster Shell that was ugly and marred by the effects of the vast ocean and the rocky conditions.  I saw the Hands of a Shucker.  The Oyster sat on a wooden plank table.  The Shucker examined the Oyster, flipping it over.  It was a very hard shell.  There was a concave side and a flat side.  I saw the Shucker take a beautiful linen cloth and flip the Oyster to have the flat side up.

The Hand placed the Oyster in the cloth and carefully wrapped it.  He then held it with His left hand and, with a knife, He found the hinge that kept the two parts together.  He moved the knife up and down, skillfully twisting the blade to loosen the shell from top to bottom.  Although it looked violent, the Shucker was very careful not to break the shell of the Oyster.

With the shell now opened, the knife was moved deeper to pry the shells further apart.  With the two shells then apart, the inside of the Oyster was exposed to the Shucker.  All of this now rested in the Shucking Cloth.  However, this was different from regular oyster shucking.  I could see a small Pearl now developing in the exposed Oyster.

The Shucker then placed the Oyster on a bed of ice to preserve it for the time He deemed right.  I then saw Him replace the loose shells over each one in order to hide the Oyster until the Shucker was ready to show them off.  He then put a Shucking Cloth over all of the Oysters to keep them fully hidden from the view of the world until He removed the cloth at a later time.

Sub-Dream/Vision 1 over…

Father, I have so many questions about everything.  I feel like so many of us here on the Nest have been like an Oyster on ice under Your cover for a long time.  While I know that this time that has passed is nothing to You, it feels like an eternity to all of us that are here waiting.  When You lift off that cloth over us Oysters, I pray You find us perfect for Your use.  I pray our aroma will be pleasing.  There are so many analogies of us in You that are displayed here.

Jesus:  “Erin, come up!”

He once again spoke to me while I sat in my devotional chair.  His Voice was very clear.

Jesus:  “Erin, I am here and I am with you.  You were busy today.”

Me:  “Yes, Lord.  Let us also call today ‘Shucker Day’ (where today is actually Good Friday).  Let us also call this Sunday ‘The Reveal Day’ (where this Sunday is actually both Resurrection Day and Easter Sunday).  Let this Sunday be the day us Oysters are opened and our Pearls finally revealed.  Oh please, Lord, how about it?

“Well, I already know that You won’t tell me if I have the timing right, so I will instead tell You how grateful I am for the gift of these dreams and visions.  Thank You from every part of me, inside and out.  Thank You, my Precious Lord.”

Jesus:  “You are welcome, Erin.  Now, let’s talk about You today.”

Me:  Crying.  “I am sorry that I am crying, Lord.  My body is breaking down.  I have been out of sorts the last few days.  There has been a shift in the atmosphere around us.  I can’t explain this.  I just feel something now that I can’t adequately describe.  My body is also in great distress.  Different limbs are behaving oddly and I am dizzy.  I have been so sad.  The people I have encountered have been angry and clearly demonic.

“This area is a big cannabis consuming area.  There are so many young people that are behind the wheels of cars that shouldn’t be because they are obviously under the influence by the way they drive.  So many things are just not right.  Just yesterday, an incident occurred at my daughter’s work that has to be ignored because of ‘inclusion’ directives.  In essence, we are no longer free.”

Jesus:  “Yes, Erin, I know of the incident.  Yes, there is a rise in visible evil.  Pray, Erin.  While I know you have been unwell and all things appear to be dark and foreboding, what comes after the darkness?”

Me:  “The dawn?”

Jesus:  “Yes, Erin.  I want you to understand something.  Those I have reserved are like Pearls to Me.  There are others like you as well that have come from an unlikely field.  This is because your heart for God and eternal things is My Pearl.  Afflictions like sand and long enduring faith are the Oysters that I choose to spin the luster of My Pearl within.

“Still, there will be great anger.  Many will be in stunned disbelief because they thought themselves more scholarly or holy than those I have hidden amongst them.  They will then make cases against you to Me.  I will then give them two choices.  If they turn and humble themselves, I will have mercy.  However, if they continue go against My decision, they will endure a different path, a path that will not be enjoyable.

“While it is okay to present questions to Me, it is a foolish man who then twists My Word to support their cause.  Well then, if they do this, they never truly knew Me.  I am not a ‘pyramid-scheme’ kind of god.  I don’t participate in ‘multi-level salvation marketing’, where the wicked elevate themselves at the cost of those who love Me.  I am not with them.  They serve Beelzebub, not God.

“The way to salvation is through Me.  I am the Savior.  I determine both life and death as I still hold the Keys.  These Keys were not taken from Me by My Father after 2000 years.  These Keys are Mine.  I therefore carry the Keys over both eternal life in Heaven and spiritual death in Sheol.  Erin, I see the rise in evil.  I see the rise in apathy from My pulpits.  Many are now ashamed to spread the Good News.”

Me:  “Oh Lord, life here on this fallen planet is becoming harder.  Since there is no justice here on Earth, are Your people better off serving in prison?  Perhaps we are better off in solitary confinement?”

Jesus:  “No, Erin.  You are misunderstanding Me.  What I am speaking of here is the message spewing out from so many of the pulpits.  Who will stand for My Word?  Is it not clear enough to those who seek, knock and enter into My Church?  Do they not deserve truth?  The hour is late!  Why do the people go to My Church?  Do they need answers?  Do they need help?  Who will stand and speak the truth now?  Erin, who is greater… God or the wicked?”

Me:  “Well, Lord, of course God, You, is greater!  Now, You continue to tell us to stand down.  There have been many times that I could have said something to some shady characters, but I didn’t.”

Jesus:  “No, this is different.  Again, I am speaking of My pastors, the shepherds.”

Me:  “I think many are just thankful to have the lost come to their church.  I think those who are members are needing comfort and to feel good.”

Jesus:  “Hmm, oh… so lukewarm then?  Erin, if the hour is late and the building is on fire, doesn’t someone stand up and say, ‘Hurry, there is no time.  You will need to leave your safe pews or you will be consumed in this fire.  You need to run to the door.’  Well, Erin, I am the Door and I am at the door.  They need to hurry to Me, their Door.”

Me:  “You are right, Lord!”

Jesus:  “If they let it, My Word of Truth will cover their houses of worship.  My Glory will then be like the ‘Burning Bush’.  It will not be consumed by fiery flames.  It will instead catch the fire of My Glory.  Erin, do you now understand?”

Me:  “Yes, Lord.”

Jesus:  “Then pray that the people in these pews turn and humble themselves.  This is because the ground they stand on is Holy Ground.  If My people would humble themselves, just one could save thousands.  However, My Church is silent right now.  My Word is carefully crafted and spoken so as to not offend.  My Gift of Salvation is now given only to the few who are earnest.”

Me:  “Lord, take back Your Churches.  The people are lost and with no Shepherd.  Please let Your Glory fall through the darkness.  Shine Your Glory on all of the people.  Send in Your Vessels to pour out Your Spirit on both the young and the old.  This isn’t just a petition, Lord, but my sincere prayer.  It is time to take Your Oysters off of the ice, my Lord and ‘Chief Shucker’.  The ice is melting here.  Please don’t let us rot.  Oh Lord, please use us for Your Glory… not for our glory, but for Your Glory only!”

Jesus:  “Your prayer is good, Erin.  I have heard your petition and it is a sweet aroma to the Throne of God in Heaven.”

Me:  “Oh Lord, Your people need hope right now.  They need to know their Savior.  Even pastors out there do not know how amazing You are.  It hurts my heart to hear horrible things spoken of the One I love and serve.  How much longer will You be patient?  How long will we need to stand down and not engage?  I see such horrible injustice now.  Oh Lord, please hurry.  Those needing rescuing are already starting to spoil.  Please, Lord, don’t let them become ‘unsalvageable’!”

Jesus:  “I see all of this.  There is an Appointed Time for all things under Heaven and for God’s Glory.  The hour is late.  Keep oil in your lamps.  I am here.  Your Groom speaks to you.  I come bearing gifts.  Do not worry.  I love you.”
