Ever had such a friend that you really did not know what you had until it was over or that special friend was gone? Cherish your loved ones and love them by serving them. God's love for us was of a servant nature. He loved in such a manner that He Gave His only unique Son to die in Our place for our sins, what love. Romans 5:8 and 1 John 3:1.
But I will see her again and it may be soon.
I add this today, July 7, 2015, I do miss Myrtle, she was the best friend I ever had.
Myrtle Rockwell was a very dear lady. She was generous,patient, kind, forgiving, hospitable,wise, disciplined, hard working, friendly, enjoyed good meals, enjoyed simple things, she loved the Lord more than any material things. She was very special. She loved gardening. She loved our drives and we drove 1000's of miles. She had no regrets. I was so blessed by God to have known her.

"I came that you might have life....." the Lord Jesus Christ (John 10:10)
I write this because many people have life but not abundantly and it does not mean thousands and thousands of dollars or material goods but life that is above and beyond this one...A Glorious Hope.
I never really realized how much a blessing Mrs. Rockwell was (Myrtle) to me until she was gone and has been gone. She has been home with the Lord now for two years and two months. ( II Corinthians 5:8)
Myrtle loved the Lord and she was so assured of where she was going when she passed, and lived her faith like no one I know or have known except one. Myrtle was more faithful and liberated by her faith in Jesus Christ than most if not all pastor/teachers I have met. Most are legalistic wanting to please God on their own good efforts even after having said they have faith in the work of Christ on the cross. Yet they live lives of do's and don'ts trying to be holy out of some source of energy on their own. What a waste not to mention a slap at God after He has already made the provision for our sins and for daily living Romans 6.
Well, aside from that I miss Myrtle, she was a very good friend. You may only find one in your life time if you are lucky and I was because I did. She was a good sport too.
We would sit on the patio in the afternoon and talk, or make some lemon aide from her lemon tree, or have a glass of Zinfandel chilled. Myrtle was in her 90's in this picture. I laugh and cry when I look at it. When I look back the major regret I have is that I did not do more for her. I told her I loved her everyday and reminded her of how much the Lord, God the Father loved her, although she knew that more than me;
"And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us"..
1 John 4:16.
Myrtle would want you to know Him, and all it takes is believing what God the Father says about His Son Jesus Christ.
The Good News "Christ died for Our Sins according to the scriptures;
and that he was buried,
and that he rose again the third day
according to the scriptures."
"By which you are saved"... if you believe this alone for salvation.
1 Corinthians 15: 1-4.
The time is short!

Make money from Home & be with the ones you love
While I was caring for Mrs. Rockwell I put my loan business on hold as I was caring for her full time (24/7).
And after she passed away things did not go the way I understood them to go. I was ask to pay rent while I was still in the house cleaning and painting it getting it ready for sale, this was only three months later so I wasn't bumming. I painted the whole exterior except for one side and three rooms in the house while maintaining the yard.
Nice isn't it? Well the executor decided after it looked so good that instead of selling it it would be rented. Well I did not have a job, I cared for Mrs. Rockwell and now she was gone and I had no money, what was I to do? Well I had to leave. I thank the Lord I have a twin brother and I went to live with him, if not God knows what I'd have done.
So this brings me to what I'd like to share, "make money from home" , "make money from home so you can be with the ones you love." How does that sound?
Mrs. Rockwell would want me to share these with you. When she knew I was looking at home businesses she always said just stay with one. Well I tried many and lost $ 1000's sound familiar? I looked and tried looked and tried and lost with no help from my sponsors. You are at the right place if you are reading this or these blogs to make money or gain information as to how..
Mrs. Rockwell was business minded; she was conservative. She invested and was pretty good.
I'd like to be but I need to make some money to pay bills for living and pay off debt. Maybe you'd like to also. If you are blogging for money or using blogs to find ways here they are. I need to make some money faster, I am in my fifties with no retirement so that's why I want to share these and hope you will look into them.
Maybe you'd like to simply make money to help family or others. Personally I want o help my brother at his house, pay off debts, finish my education (yes even now) and give to my church.
And finally one is for health as I cared for my mom with Cancer, and Mrs. Rockwell with heart problems.
This one You gotta see !!!! www.funtoberich.com/mcm
Now I am on my way to making a living from home. Let me preface this with this; In the Bible in James 4:15 it says, "if the Lord wills we will do this or that make a gain." That being said I completely leave this to the Lord because it says also in James 1:17, "every good and perfect gift is from above from the Father," so I say too "Lord willing these will work" because I have lost money as well. So Lord willing these will work for you. you can contact through here with any questions.
May God bless you with His best, His Son 1 Corinthians 15: 1-5.

The Time is short......it is the last hour.
I am saying this only because as we see in the US as well as around the world many "Anti-Christ" systems and religions along with attitudes are abounding every day.
Further, the Apostle Paul said in 2 Tim. 3:1f " this know also, for in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection , trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, highminded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness but denying the power there of.
This definitely characterizes our society. The people who built this country are the current community of Senior citizens. And this country for the most part is casting them aside and more so in the future. Mrs. Rockwell was a Lieutenant Navy Nurse, and her husband was Navy Captain. They both made sacrifices for their country and now it is being sold out by our Government to illegals, immoral and false religion.
That is why the only True Hope we have is the Grace Salvation that God the Father provided through the Sending of His Only Unique Son, Jesus Christ. "Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and he was buried and rose the third day according to the scriptures" 1 Corinthians 15: 1-4. This only and alone saves by believing this that God has provided. And we wait for the Son from heaven who gave himself for us and delivers us from the wrath to come. 1 Thessalonians 1: 10. The time on earth is short and then what? Eternity. We all will spend "forever" some where. Money, fame, possessions, power is all passing away, sooner than we think.
Myrtle is safe home with her Savior Jesus Christ and God the Father enjoying all the glory. I hope as would
Myrtle that you would come to believe in the Gracious Gift Salvation of Christ dying for our sins, alone nothing else; no good works.

An April Memorial Service
On Friday April 5th I attended a memorial service for a friend of mine from years ago. When I go to memorial services they always remind me of our own mortality and the fact that we are all heading in that direction. Now this one was at a Lutheran Church building and that is neither here nor there except for what the group believes saves them; in other words what they believe that makes them right before God. Many Lutheran Churches do in fact believe what the Bible says in regards to being Saved, and by that I mean having your sins and the penalty for them taken care of by the vicarious death of Christ on the Cross. The death, burial and resurrection of Christ alone saves us as we believe that for the purpose of being saved.
I am not sure what this particular one believed but by the rituals they carried out I would say they may not believe that Christ's death is altogether sufficient to save them and they need to perform some good works. But that is not consistent with the Bible God's word. That is the Good News, that we don't have to try to earn it, for we can't in any way please God, so He sent His only Unique Son to die on the Cross in our place.
Any attempt to do good works is futile, and even if you tried and wanted to have God evaluate them on the day of Judgement you will be compared to Jesus Christ the Beloved Son. Do you think you are near Him? Remember God said if you fail in one you have failed them all. There is No room for even one sin, act of unrighteousness or trespass. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved.
Myrtle Rockwell in fact did believe this and was wonderfully saved by God. Her life reflected His love and forgiveness in so many ways. I study the Bible God's word each day, but I am so thankful to have had the privilege of caring for Myrtle Rockwell for ten years and had such a godly example!!!!
I miss you Myrtle, see you soon, Come Lord Jesus.

What a Joy Myrtle Rockwell was, and her home Peaceful
I wanted to put some of the pictures I had on Mrs. Rockwell's house. Keep in mind a house is a home by those dwelling in it; at least that is my definition. Because sometimes the nicest houses have much turmoil and no peace or love in it. Do you know what I mean? Sure you do. Myrtle's house was a very peace filled home. She welcomed everyone and was hospitable to all. And as I mentioned in one post even if there was a party for Myrtle she would make "you" feel like the life of the party.
Here are some pictures.
The top one is her husband's military flag.We put it out often.
The next is a part of the section in here back yard, and you can see a zinfindel vine growing.
And the third one is the veggie garden. We grew kale, broccoli, tomatoes, beans and lettuce.
Next is looking back at the house, near her fig tree and lemon tree.
Then you see Myrtle on her patio. She loved being outside.
And finally the front yard. I loved caring for her and her yard. Unfortunately it does not look like that now. Tenants have let it over grow to being the worst yard on the block. Sad but true. But Myrtle is with the Lord Jesus Christ so she has no concern. Praise the Lord.
I miss her. She was a wonderful friend; one in a million I can safely say.

Myrtle Rockwell now home with the Lord two years! Wow.
I can hardly believe two years have gone by since Myrtle Rockwell went home to be with her Savior the Lord Jesus Christ. He is our only hope for Life Eternal, and a right standing before God the Father. Not a day goes by that I am not reminded of Myrtle by some flowers or plant I am working with for she was responsible for the beginning of my learning about growing. Even driving I am so reminded of her because we drove so many places here in San Diego to get a mocha, a sandwich or just a nice drive.
Here is Myrtle as we drove: She loved driving around and seeing nice areas of big homes or just some place she had not seen before. And I loved to drive her, she loved getting out. She was the best friend I have ever had. She simply by her life taught me about the Lord's grace salvation. She truly knew her Savior Jesus Christ in complete confidence so there was no need to live under some attitude of law in do's and don't s. She was a wonderful lady, hospitable, generous, kind, forgiving, honest, open, befriending, nonjudgmental and selfless. Everything one can read in God's Holy Word the Bible such as the what Love is in 1 Corintians13: 1-8, or the Fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5: 22-23 Myrtle exemplified in and by her life. I was blessed by the Lord beyond what I knew at the time I was caring for her as to what I had in my friend Myrtle Rockwell.
Well bye for now, but the Lord Jesus himself may descend from heaven at any moment with the voice of the Archangel and the trumpet of God and the ones believing in the Unique Son of God and his work on the Cross will be "caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air," and Myrtle will already be with Him.
Come quickly Lord Jesus.
