Blessing OMESA

Fritz, my mini dachshund and side kick, left out early this morning to bless OMESA as planned. The wind was blowing, sun peaking through the the random clouds and Enchanted Rock was a brillant pink. Because of my busy-ness, I have not opened my daily devotional in weeks but I decided today I would pray and read from God's Calling as I bless OMESA with holy water. Without much thought, I opened to June 12 and here's what I saw: House on a ROCK! Synchronistic ...yes! A wonderful way the spirit of goodness nudges us in validation and support.

"He that heareth these sayings of Mine and doeth them is like unto a man who built his house upon a rock, and the rain descended and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon the house and it fell not, for it was founded upon a ROCK"

The secure, steadfast, immovable life of My disciples, THE ROCK HOME, is not built at a wish, in a moment, but is laid stone by stone, foundation, walls, roof, by the acts of obedience, the daily following out of My wishes, the loving doing of My Will. ( God's Calling, page 123).

Greek Proverb

...plant a tree, write a book, have a son and BUILD A HOME....note I said HOME...so this will not be just any house, or just any project...this is a lesson in life, love and holiness...as I learn much about myself, others and God during this journey. You see, I have planted a tree ( beautiful white and pink dogwood at our Gilbert Place home), wrote a metaphorical book which is complex and difficult to understand by some, had a son with a little help from my husband ...and now the ground is prepared for a sacred structure. A HOME....A HOME that mirrors the interior castle of all who live there or visit...A HOME that becomes a beacon of light from the Mesa ridge and examplifies the fruits of the spirit....... ..........( Galatians 5:22-23) A HOME of love, peace, kindness, goodness, gentleness, joy, faithfulness,patience,and self-control. Is this possible?

I plan to bless the site in the morning with holy water and prayer as I ask God to bless the journey to completion as well as the result..... a sacred HOME on sacred GROUND. Please pray with me that this rock HOME be an example of holiness for all who enter the gates .... pray that the artisans and all those who use their creativity, minds and their hands be safe and blessed as they contribute their talents. It's with gratitude that I pray ...
