"It is time to seek the Lord."-Hosea 10:12

This month of April is said to derive its name from the Latin verb aperio, which signifies to open, because all the buds and blossoms are now opening, and we have arrived at the gates of the flowery year. Reader, if you are yet unsaved, may your heart, in accord with the universal awakening of nature, be opened to receive the Lord. Every blossoming flower warns you that it is time to seek the Lord; be not out of tune with nature, but let your heart bud and bloom with holy desires. Do you tell me that the warm blood of youth leaps in your veins? then, I entreat you, give your vigour to the Lord. It was my unspeakable happiness to be called in early youth, and I could fain praise the Lord every day for it. Salvation is priceless, let it come when it may, but oh! an early salvation has a double value in it. Young men and maidens, since you may perish ere you reach your prime, "It is time to seek the Lord." Ye who feel the first signs of decay, quicken your pace: that hollow cough, that hectic flush, are warnings which you must not trifle with; with you it is indeed time to seek the Lord. Did I observe a little grey mingled with your once luxurious tresses? Years are stealing on apace, and death is drawing nearer by hasty marches, let each return of spring arouse you to set your house in order. Dear reader, if you are now advanced in life, let me entreat and implore you to delay no longer. There is a day of grace for you now-be thankful for that, but it is a limited season and grows shorter every time that clock ticks. Here in this silent chamber, on this first night of another month, I speak to you as best I can by paper and ink, and from my inmost soul, as God's servant, I lay before you this warning, "It is time to seek the Lord." Slight not that work, it may be your last call from destruction, the final syllable from the lip of grace.

Nonexistent? Really?

This is so me right at the moment. I'm so, so frustrated....If anyone can help me please let me know. Where did homesteadblogger.com move to??????? I had a blog with them back in 2008 and moved to this one in 2010 because they went to WordPress and I so dislike WP. I tried to stay with them for a month and never could get it and still to this day I so dislike posting on any site that uses WP for comments. Well, I can't find my blog stuff that I had on homesteadblogger they have just vanished and I can't find their home to log in????? what has happened in cyber space? I'm nonexistent... really??? I really would love to know. Now I'm going for a walk and then I'll get to my sewing projects for the day. Error I keep getting I've even googled them and can't locate them. ARGH!

I blogged there for years and left when the ads became part of the "new" look. Once again they moved to another platform just about a month or so ago. Homesteadblogger is officially gone as far as I know and homeschoolblogger is now schoolhouse families. Its a Ning type platform. Its sad cause I loved those sites before the "upgrades" a few years ago.
