  • Joy level must Increase!

    Joy level must Increase!

    8/16/26 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

    I took the before mentioned scripture and walked through it with the Holy Spirit. It is what first came to me as I set my heart to enter the Center of My Garden and meet with the Master Gardener. Many things transpired through the night and I needed to not just ignore them, but also to not lean on my or anyone else’s understanding.

    The Holy Spirit helps me on with my robe of humility and I take a bunch of peach roses. I enter with a smile. I curtsy, “Good morning my love!” He smiles and throws his head back with a laugh of joy! “Good morning my love!”, and he takes the flowers. We dance together at his suggestion. The joy level must increase, I sense it is needed! I rejoice in His love and care. “Lord, I hand you these cares. What would you like to tell me or say to me this morning?” I ask for the peace of Jerusalem first, then I wait on him. As I close my eyes I see a heart. Before I saw it, he was telling me: Everything is going to be alright. I am caring for you, and I will guide you and provide for you!” We will sit a while, I need his ministry and then we will work in the garden!

    He is my everything. He is my healer. He guides me through the rough patches and unknowns. I have said yes to him and the path he has for me ahead. He knows what is going on and he sees the best path for my care. I hope you let his joy in today and I hope you smile and dance with him. As I typed out this post form days ago, today I am glad for the revisit and I have danced with him.

  • A simple Encounter!

    A simple Encounter!

    8/15/26 “Good morning Lord, I bring myself to you today. Barefoot clothed in light raiment and a big smile from my heart. Here I am Lord, and you are my desire!”

    What a simple encounter, and yet what wonder and awe it inspired. What growth it has shown in me!

    Psalm 122:1-2 I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go into the house of the LORD.” Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!

  • Out of the Way!

    Out of the Way!

    “Good morning Lord,” I smile. “Good morning my love, let us walk. Let us work on the borders today and catch some foxes!” And I watch closely and listen attentively. For I grow tired of cycles that end today, now!”

    When I was in the shop this week, a man shook his head at me in disapproval. I was going to ignore it, but I knew better. I decided I approved of myself and my wheelchair and I quietly blocked and loosed that enemy witchcraft from my soul. Sometimes if we just let things go they slowly affect us and we don’t realize it. The disapprovals and mistreatments can play like a record underneath everything, especially if we have believed lies about ourselves in the past. I got a chance to practice being strong and courageous in my life. It was a day of better boundaries in many ways for me. I decided to send God’s love to that man and pray that he learn to love himself and let love in. Then I went onto the other boundaries that were needed. I was reminded that I need to get out of the way in some areas. It is hard, for me at least, to just get out of the way, but that is what I have done today and I am sure that the Master Gardener is guiding me in doing this, especially after my encounter with him earlier!

    Psalm 37:3 Trust in the Lord and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.

  • I am with Him!

    I am with Him!

    “Good morning my King, my Love!” “Good morning!” He pulls me in and we embrace. I breathe him in. He looks at the satchel I am carrying. “Oh I have a surprise for you!” I reach in and pull out a small three tiered cake. I am surprized too because I asked the Holy Spirit for something to bring and he decided to surprize us both! “That looks delicious, shall we get on to work and then have a tea break later?” “Oh yes Lord!” The Master Gardener is at work and I am with him! “Thank you Holy Spirit for the surprize. I do hope you will enjoy the cake with us!” And I feel him smile. And that cake just grew a little.

    Isaiah 55:12 “For you shall go out with joy, and be led out with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth into singing before you, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

  • I accept it!

    I accept it!

    “Good morning Lord,” I enter with a smile that the Holy Spirit suggested to me. “Thank you Holy Spirit, I need you!” “Good morning my love.” He smiles back. I know I don’t deserve an audience with him, the smile, or his love, but he has offered it to me freely. And I accept it! I close my eyes and let his love wash over me. “Come walk with me, we have work to do, but it is from a place of rest and peace.” “Yes Lord, I receive and I let go of striving!” “Great idea!” And we walk together to begin our work. I sing “Goodbye yesterday I’m living in the light of a new day!”

    Ezra 7:27-28 Blessed be the LORD God of our fathers, who has put such a thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the house of the LORD which is in Jerusalem, and has extended mercy to me before all the king’s mighty princes. So I was encouraged, as the hand of the LORD my God was upon me; and I gathered leading men of Israel to go up with me.

  • Just him, especially Him!

    8/8/26 “Good morning my King, it is a beautiful day.” The King is arrayed in splendor, his robes exude glory. He has his crown upon his head. His robes are brilliant light. Magnificent! “I love you, you are glorious!” He smiles. I am walking with the King today! “What about what was on my heart in the night Lord?” “Pray Krista,” he smiles and motions us to walk on the path. I follow his lead.

    8/9/26 “Good afternoon my King.” He smiles and looks into my eyes. We are walking and talking and just being with one another. He has already been guiding me at work in the Center and whole of My Garden today. It was just time to reenter the Center with him and set my heart more fully on just him, especially him!

    Isaiah 64:8 But now, O LORD, You are our Father; We are the clay. and You our potter; And all we are the work of Your hand.

  • The wonder in His Eyes!

    The wonder in His Eyes!

    “Good morning Lord,” I smile. He loves it when I smile. “Good morning my love.” We dance this morning. “I love the work you are doing in my garden Lord! It is our garden!” “Yes, it is beautiful.” Shall we work?” “Yes!”

    Psalm 118:8 It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.

    On a particularly warm day and the heat from navigating new life which entails leaving the familiar behind, I am grateful and filled with joy. As I follow the Master Gardeners lead, life and growth spring up and a new day is established. It is okay that I don’t quite know how it will look, but I have a few clues and the wonder in His eyes tells me it is gonna be good!

  • Fruitful and Beautiful!

    Fruitful and Beautiful!

    “Good morning Lord. I love you.” “Good morning sweetheart! It is going to be a fruitful and beautiful day!” “Amen, hallelujah! Well then, lead me on Lord, let’s get to work!” He smiles and laughs and we walk deeper into the Garden.

    It really has been a fruitful and a beautiful day. I am so glad I have followed the Master Gardeners plan for this time and day. He always has surprises waiting.

    Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

  • You are in Ignorance!

    You are in Ignorance!

    I am helped on with the robe of humility, as I prepare and quiet my soul. I enquire what I should bring. I bring him a song: “My beloved is the most beautiful…Yeshua…, good Morning Lord!” “What is on your heart today?” “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” “Yes Lord!” “Lord I need help with boundaries. I need wisdom. I desire to offer you sweet mature fruit. I lay down the fear and I will be patient. Will you help me? This is such a tender place Lord. Am I missing something or in ignorance or disobedience?” “Yes, Krista, you are in ignorance, and it would lead to disobedience if left alone.” “Will you tell and or show me what I need to know?” “Yes, but will you believe me and obey me?” “Yes, however, I know I need your help to see and believe and obey. Please, will you help me?” “Yes, now pray.” “Holy Spirit guide me and help in prayer.”

    Deuteronomy 4:30-31 When you are in distress, and all these things come upon you in the later days, when you turn to the LORD your God and obey His voice (for the LORD your God is a merciful God), He will not forsake you nor destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers which He swore to them.

  • Gripped with Obedience!

    Gripped with Obedience!

    The Holy Spirit is preparing me to go into the Center of My Garden and meet with the Master Gardener. “Lord, good morning,” I smile and I joyfully hand him the lily bouquet the Holy Spirt provided me with. “Thank you my love,” and he takes in the fragrance of the flowers. He caresses my face with his hand and I close my eyes and am undone. We drink of love. We then begin to walk and talk.

    1 John 2:10 He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

    Ezekiel 23 is what I had been lead to today. God is addressing His beloved people. Ezekiel 23:4 Their names: Oholah the elder and Oholibah her sister; They were Mine, And they bore sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem is Oholibah. It goes on to tell of their betrayal and great harlotry toward him. He exposes them individually. He then says they will be given over into the hands of their lovers who will be cruel. Verse 24 says: And they shall come against you with chariots, wagons, and war horses, with a horde of people. They shall array against you buckler, shield and helmet all around. I will delegate judgement to them, and they shall judge you according to their judgements. It continues to explain just what they will do. Verse 35 “Therefore thus says the Lord God: ‘Because you have forgotten Me and cast Me behind your back, Therefore you shall hear the penalty of your lewdness and your harlotry.” He talks about how they even sacrificed their sons to idols. You can read the entire chapter if you like.

    If before Christ came his people were brought to account for betraying him, what makes us think that now after Christ gave himself for us that he will not deal with us similar if we reject the Son. Yes He is very patient with us, waiting for us to turn fully to Him, but He will not wait forever. There are times and seasons set in order and we must choose. Today I have been gripped with obedience. That is what I which to give Him instead of treachery! Lord as you forgave and restored your people long ago, today as we turn to you, heal us and our land. Teach us to serve and fear you alone. How faithful and true you are. And what a wonderous job you do of restoration.
