“Come with me from Lebanon, my bride…depart from the peak of
Amana….from the dens of lions and the mountains of leopards.” (songs 4:8)
Lebanon is a white mountain of perpetual snow. The peak of
Amana is a mountain of the origin of the river Amana, which flowed down and
watered the fertile valley. Lions are the image of strength but fierceness and
cruelty, their den is their refuge. The root word for leopards in Hebrew means
to filtrate, be limpid (unclouded, translucent, transparent, to be free of
anything that darkens).
It’s time to come down from the secluded suffering and pains
of sifting trials. These seasons and places are necessary in our lives, but to
remain there would steal from LIFE, defeating the very purpose of that trial.
To stay at the origin of a river would miss out on all the abundance that it
brings! To make a safe place in the cruelty of my trials is to set up home with
lions. Jesus calls me to Come Down with Him and experience the abundance in
fertile ground fed by the river of suffering!
Listen to this song and dance! {Thank you to my dear friend
Danielle for introducing me to Rend Collective. I play their songs and
celebrate every morningJ
Did you know that Pandora is not allowed in Canada? Preposterous!

We were an hour away from the Canadian border at 4:30 and decided, “hey, we might as well cross it!” If you ever have the same situation, find a place to sleep and tackle that task fresh in the morning. Three hours later we finally drove away. Ah well, saved us $600 from mailing our hunting and bear safety tools. We stayed at a hotel last night (with wifi) as it was 9:30pm Saskatchewan time(11:30pm PA time) by the time we were in civilization again. I made my bullet-proof coffee at a car outlet outside this morning J
On to the vast expanse of our trip called CANADA!

Glad you made it through. When border patrol called me about the guns I was hoping I knew the right answers. Wasn't paying a lot of attention what you took or left:). Was praying that you got through ok and found a place to rest. Love reading your posts. Love ya
