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. 17For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18He 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.

We have a planned Litter between Yeti and Lukey for 2026. I do not have a timeframe as I stopped checking my females during the crazy move. 1st choice female has already been reserved. Get on the list now if interested as we won't likely be having many litters in 2026.

Pt 5:
Ya'll ready for more drama? Lol Please understand that I am now over 50 years old. All this happened so long ago but, I feel like it is time to share the story. It is "my" story. MY testimony....no one has to like it or agree with it. No one can take it from me. 😉
Okay, back to the Alaska lady! I look back now at this and at calm and graceful she was. She was not soft in any way that I could tell. This lady packed a sword! After I told her everything my husband had done, she simply replied : "What does God expect YOU to do" I was like.....ummmmm......Did you miss something? "I" am not the problem. Lol I sort of laugh now because I really was a brat, I knew it all.....therefore I couldn't learn anything. Isn't that something? When you already know everything, you can't be taught.
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding."
The issue is that rebellion doesn't fear God. How can I be both rebellious and wise?
Back to "him" being the problem and I am innocent......(Doesn't that just sound ridiculous?) I repeated to her "He is the one who has done all of this" She replies.......right....but you can't change him. Only God can. So, what does God expect YOU to do? I was at a loss at this point because now this whole thing has taken a bizarre turn. I am now being held accountable for how I behave. Every snide look, every subtle attitude, every snotty sneer, every fit I threw, every condemning word or slurry of words I had every used towards my husband were now being brought full force back to me. Of course.....I was innocent. All my friends and some family all agreed with me. Some would even coach and cheer me on in my self righteous, "know it all" charade. Boy, I wonder why he made the terrible choices he did......he was a young boy with just as bad of an upbringing as mine. He didn't even know Jesus and he surely wasn't buying into "my" version of Jesus. He held onto me, clung to me, fought for me........then this? I treated him like other abusers in his past had. I broke his heart, lost his trust....."The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her" Gone. Just like that. And so was he.

Part 4:
So now what? Skipping some very ugly details, I was eventually brought to a place where my husband left me. I was pregnant, had 2 kids already, no drivers licence, no car, no income. Well isn't THIS a fine kettle or really really ROTTEN fish! Yep but the problem was....the real problem.....is that no matter how hurt and angry I was, I still loved him. I still believed God could fix him. Not because my husband was good, but because GOD is good! God is faithful, God hates divorce! I had biblical grounds for divorce. I had all the "rights". He was wrong and I was right. Right? Ha!!! (So I wanted to add as an afterthought that we sought out counseling before he left me. 1 pastor and one secular counselor. After hearing our story, they BOTH refused us stating they were not qualified to help us. Uhhhh.....does that REALLY even happen???!!! lol apparently it does. 😉 To GOD BE THE GLORY!!!
He is gone, not calling except to talk to the kids once per week. I called a lady in the town he was staying (on an island in ALASKA!!) So she could "keep an eye" on him for me. Yes, yes I did do this. She was a sternish but kind woman with a lot of backbone. She would not be pressured or swayed by my strong will. Although I was not a spoiled person per se', I did have some really bratty, self righteous, rebellious, entitled type traits. I was prone to temper tantrums, possible fits of rage ect. when I didn't get my way. Do understand that even though I strongly believed in Jesus, I had no one to ever actually teach me HOW to follow Jesus. I was born out of wedlock to a barely 14 year old girl. I was raised by my single grandmother (her and grandpa were divorcing I think before I was 2) until I was 8. At 8, grandma decided to get married again. Her new husband had already raised his family. So I got to choose which parent and step parent combo I should go live with. Well the saga isn't as simple as that but I ended up with my dad. He was a very harsh man. There was a lot of abuse that took place. Children services removed me after about 2 years. Then there was foster care, then to my moms. After being at my moms for a couple years, I became VERY rebellious. I was preg at 13, and fighting with my mom and her boyfriend regularly. I got shipped back to dads because he could likely handle me better. Yep so I had my baby, my spirit got crushed pretty well. Dad was great at that. Anyhow, I tell you all of this because I believe that we all have lifes experiences that mold and shape us into who we are. This upbringing is just a back story for you to see why I was the way I was to my husband. For one, I didn't trust anyone. No one. But then there was God. I trusted Him the most. But take up my cross and follow him? Whatever does that even mean!? Until next time.......🙂

'Why" was the question of the previous post. Well as I leaned into the Lord and I asked my husband to be honest with me about the things that "I" may have been doing that caused him to want to keep things from me. Well it turns out that I was frequently condescending. Even on the little day to day things. I can justify MY actions ALL day long. (He WAS an irresponsible man CHILD no doubt about it! He was just 18 and I was just 16 when we got married.) I "Mothered" him. I actually got in Gods way MANY times by using God against him. In doing many of my own self righteous actions, I literally prolonged his growth and salvation. I did this all in the name of God but without following Gods word in this area myself. Ephesians 5:22 says "Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord." What!!??? Submit myself unto HIM as I would to the LORD!!!??? How could I even? Then there is this....."Proverbs 21:19 - It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman." & "Proverbs 14:1
Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands."
Was I this unwise and contentious/angry woman? I had MUCH to be contentious and VERY angry about. Yes, yes I was her. Now....How do I turn this ship around? First I had to decide. Do I want to be justified and encouraged by my peers to continue on this path of self destruction and the tearing down of my house? The house God gave me? Or do I want to be true and pure and clean and honest and righteous before God? That was the descision only I could make. God knew my heart. I couldn't defend my own wretched ways before Him. He knew "why" I felt the way I did. But ONLY HE knew how to fix it. Truly fix it......

Yesterdays post may have seemed harsh. However, it was a genuine question. What is our goal as wives? As a young wife and momma, I thought a bit differently than what I do now. "Today" I get to look back and self reflect. Who was I back then and where has the Lord brought me since then? I was a bit of a feisty and rebellious young wife. So God allowed me to be broken......because that is what it "took" for me. Not all women need this, but I did. Even back then, I was passionate and wanted to "win" this battle. So I personally chose to do it Gods way. Ultimately, THIS became my goal :
Proverbs 31:10-11
"10) Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
11) The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil."
I had a friend back "in the day" whose husband would run around with mine. I would ask her.....did you know about this!!? She would reply.....yes. Her husband was just as evil as mine (neither were born again) but HE trusted her enough to tell her. MY husband did not trust me that much. Why??? TBContinued......

What's your motive ladies? Are you being a helper to your husband? So that by Gods grace and your help....He can be an overcomer? Or do you prefer to hold his past against him and remain a victim forever? Isn't it time for us ALL to be overcomers?
