An Interview With God
 

1Samuel 1:10  And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore. 

1Sa 1:11  And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head. 

1Sa 1:12  And it came to pass, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli marked her mouth. 

1Sa 1:13  Now Hannah, she spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard:

Hannah was not able to have a child so she prayed from her heart and our God was there to hear her. How often I have cried out to God and He was there to talk to me. Bonnie Lou was raised in a Christian church but had not been told that she must ask Jesus to forgive her of her sins and receive Him into her heart, not her mind, as her personal Saviour. Even the Devil believes, so we do as the scripture states, believe and receive Jesus into our heart as our personal Saviour. 

I was watching on the Netflix channel the Movie, Interview with God.  God in this story was in human form and talking to this young man. Like at times we are desperate to talk with God in my case, talking with Jesus. How often I spend time during the night or day time talking or crying out to God or in my case, calling out to Jesus because I asked and received Him into my heart as a child and later while in the hospital in Minneapolis when I recommitted my heart and life to Him. Like Hannah I cried out in desperation to forgive me and Jesus was there to hear and answer my cry.

Many times we blame God for all our troubles but He does not do this. Most of the time we listen to the Devil and we allow Him to afflict us with sickness or problems but when we receive Jesus into our heart and lives we know that he is always with us and will be at our side as we go through these situations. I thought I had it hard as I went through a dozen times at death door and with Bonnie Lou going to heaven but Jesus has brought me through these situations or trials every time. Now the hardest trial being with a house filled with children and my son and daughter who are great comfort to me but I get so lonely for my Bonnie Lou.

Many years ago a minister I knew got so discouraged that He jumped off a bridge in Seattle.  Did he go to heaven? Did he cry out to Jesus on the way down on this jump or was it too late? I cannot answer that question. So don't wait for later but receive Jesus into your Heart now.  John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 

Joh 3:17  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 

Joh 3:18  He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 

How time flies. The Easter season is here and it is wonderful to know that Jesus paid the supreme price and took our place that died for us that we could have eternal life with Him. Why did he not take the roll of being a King instead of being crucified, dying, placed in a tomb, then being resurrected to appear to His to Disciples and others. Jesus did everything so different yet all the world does or can receive Him as their personal Saviour. I don't understand it all but I do know that He lives in my heart. Only Jesus could do this for us and it was God's plan.

I want to say a big Mahalo (thank you) for all of you that have prayed and give us financial support. You can continue doing this by making your checks out to
