Second-Step HOME for Women

"If you decide that it's a bad thing to worship GOD, then choose a god you'd rather serve--and do it today. Choose one of the gods your ancestors worshiped from the country beyond The River, or one of the gods on whose land you're now living. As for me and my family, we'll worship GOD." (Joshua 24:15, Msg)

This rLn original work -- a refurbished home for some needy bird -- is for Kathleen Garzon's Second-Step Home for Women. May these women's hearts be kindled with the JOY of the LORD JESUS as they walk a-new their second chance at Life 101.

"GOD chose things despised by the world, things counted as NOthing at all, and used them to bring to NOthing what the world considers important." (1 Corinthians 1:28, NLT)

JESUS is The WAY and The RESURRECTION

You shall call His name JESUS for He will SAVE His people from their sins. (Matthew 1:21)

I AM The WAY, The Truth, and The Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. (John 14:6)

JISU--Buli Vou... Born again In JESUS. Me yaco ga na nomuni lewa... YOUR will be done (on earth as it is in heaven.) (Matthew 6:10)

JISU: na Rarama ni tamata na Bula... JESUS: The LIFE was The LIGHT of men. (John 1:4)

JESUS: "Come to Me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light. (Matthew 11:28-30, NLT)

The art project at the Naselesele Village Catholic church was started June 2013 -- and finally completed February 2014. From the very beginning and throughout the nine months of the work, GOD was giving me life lessons -- REALITY. Not only was He revealing His WORD to me through the hours (and hours!) of Zac Poonen messages from my mp3, but He showed me the workings of the Holy SPIRIT, within and without. Throughout the nine months, GOD in CHRIST showed Himself to be JEHOVAH JIREH! \o/

Kathleen's JOSHUA 24:15

And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. (Joshua 24:15, KJV)

May our Holy and Almighty GOD continue to bless Kathy, my sister in CHRIST, and her S.T.E.P.S. -- Sobriety, Temperance, Ethics, Progress, Service -- a GOD-filled home where the broken pieces are gathered with mercy and love, mended by the power of the Holy SPIRIT of GOD, and sent out as ambassadors of the LORD JESUS CHRIST.
