Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

        Now is still a good time to be planting winter vegetables in Texas and dormant fruit trees.  A simple greenhouse can be made using PVC pipe and painter's clear plastic rolls from a building supply company such as Lowe's, Sutherland's, or Home Depot or smaller hardware stores and lumber supply places.  A good place to put a greenhouse is on the south of your house where some of your winter heat from your home  can get to your greenhouse.  Remember, propane heat kills and damages plants of all kinds. 

     Since our president won the election, it is time to be upgrading your gardening and homesteading skills.  It is time to be learning about and planting healing herbs.  Already under Obamacare, people age 70 and up are being denied dialysis, diabetes care and medical care for life-threatening aneurysms when they are bleeding to death.  In 2014, only painkillers will be allowed for people age 70 and up even if they are in a car wreck.  I was told this by a young man whose father is an M.D. and plans to quit the practice of medicine in 2014 when he will be forced to  disobey his Hippocratic oath to give medical care to everybody, not just to the younger population.  A lot of doctors and nurses plan to quit practicing medicine in 2014 because Obamacare will not allow them to give complete care to their patients. 

     It is in our older people that the knowledge and skills of our culture resides and our true history.  When a culture gets rid of its elderly, our history and skills begin to be lost and we cease to exist as a civilized, thoughtful people. 

    So, learn your healing herbs and the natural plants of your area that can be used for food and medicine.  Get them growing in your yard and in parks and wilderness places.  Learn the skills of seed saving and breeding heritage varieties of plants and animals that can breed true.  Your life and the lives of your children, elders, grandchildren and the earth itself are counting on you!

    God is calling His people out of the cities and into the wilderness and waste places to build new things, new homes.  God is calling you with a love song to return to the land, to the good earth.  It is time to depend on Him and each other.  Read Hosea 2: 14-23.  This is a prophecy ignored by the churches that is very simple and easy to understand. 

    In many  places in the Bible God speaks of His people going out into the countryside and building in the wilderness and bringing the water to the desert and waste places.  We have forgotten who we are.  WE were made to be God's friends and to be his gardeners.  Eden was supposed to have gone over the whole earth.  It is time to reconnect the phone line to God and to the earth and animals and plants, to heal the soils and plant trees and fruit bushes and vines everywhere.  You can plant fruit trees in parks and wild places.  It does not have to be on your own land.  Someone will get to eat the fruit, even if it is not always you.

    Oh, God let me be a blessing to all who know me.  Let me be a blessing to the earth and to all living things.  Let me be a restorer of the paths to live and walk in.  May I bring truth and beauty everywhere I go.  In the name of Yavashua Jesus I pray, Amen.
