My friend Louise sent them to me. Thank you for compiling them, Sister!
I have learned quite a bit, including when I probably ought to self-callout off the W. Coast. Darn it - it may be sooner than I had originally hoped for.....

Dreams of Adam-Ondi-Ahman, camps, last days
After being a silent member of Avow for more than a year
and a half, some of you may have seen that I have posted a few lengthy
comments on a few threads now. Up until now, I have merely read various
threads of interest to me, looking particularly for dreams/visions similar to
those I have had over the past several years.
A little back ground on me first. I had my first, what I call "Second Coming" Dream, my junior year of high school. I am almost 37 and have continued to have dreams over the years, sometimes only four or five a year, other times dozens a month. I dream your usual silly dreams too, or wierd dreams, but don't usually remember details and can not remember them at all after about an hour or so from waking up. Whenever I am awakened in the middle of the night, and for some reason, I often wake up right around 5 am. with significant dreams, they are usually of some spiritual significance, and/or "deeper/thought provoking or warning type dreams." Not to say I don't have dreams at other times that I remember, but I have had so many times that I dream something really intense and the details stay with me. These are vivid, detailed dreams. Often I see things from an aerial perspective, for example, seeing Adom-ondi-ahman from an airplane view first and then it goes close up as the dream progresses. I had these dreams prior to ever going to Adam-Ondi-Ahman, or ever seeing a picture of it anywhere. I described it in detail to two sisters in my ward, and they took me there (it is only an hour and a half from my house). I live in Johnson County, KS about 30 min from Independence, MO and a neighboring county to Jackson County, MO. Have lived in Kansas 12 1/2 year, but in the Kansas City area for 7. I have told many of my dreams to my husband over the years (married in temple 13 1/2 years ago in Utah - met at BYU - he is from Kansas so we settled here near his family). My dad was military so I lived overseas and throughout various regions in the U.S growing up, but never in the midwest. Until about five years ago, I only shared my dreams with my husband and some with my mom and dad. Some of my dreams have come true, not just these second coming dreams, but others about family things. I have gained more understanding and insight into my dreams and perhaps why I have them, but it was not until a few years ago when I confided a few in my relief society president and stake president that I gained confidence regarding this gift. This previous RS president has since become a good friend. She is the person that introduced me to AVOW - and gave me Rogers "Dreams and Visions" book after hearing a few of my dreams and realizing they were very similar to dreams others have had. Having said that, hopefully if you read any of my posts, you will have a little more understanding of where I am coming from . Anything I post will be dreams prior to hearing about this site, Roger, Sarah, etc. I say this so that you know I did not have these dreams in response to reading someone else's dreams or experiences. I think that is important so that if someone is reading my posts, they will know they are my own experiences, not because I am dreaming it because someone else dreamed it, because SO MANY details are identical, specifically in terms of invasions from China, Russia, - concentration camps, plagues, famines, tsunamis, earthquakes, fires, "call outs" (even though I don't call what I saw in my dreams call outs), temples, mobs, adam-ondi-ahman, return of the 10 tribes, food storage and prep, droughts, biological warfare, nuclear attacks, war, etc. It is late and I need to get to bed, so I will have to continue posting on another day. I am really not sure where to start, with what dream/dreams....so if any of you have specific questions regarding dreams I have had regarding the subjects listed above, that may help me get started if I know someone has a specific area of interest. I DO NOT want anyone to think these are prophetic. Just please read and view this as interesting and perhaps insightful ---they are very personal and some are sacred to me, so please understand if I do not give all of the details at times or if I feel it is not appropriate for me to share them in a public setting on AVOW. I have had times when I was about to share something with a person and felt constrained by the spirit. Again, I am still unclear as to why I have had some of these dreams. I just know I do and I am trying to sort it out and not feel weighed down ----because seeing the vivid details at times and replaying them in my mind can sometimes be a bit depressing given the devastation that I have seen in some of my dreams. On the other hand, I have also received great comfort from some of my dreams and from going to the temple in prayer in trying to gain peace and insight. Thank you for your sensitivity and understanding. |

Keep thinking about and dreaming about...
I keep thinking about and dreaming about how important it
is for us to prepare spiritually.
Since I dream very regularly, I don't always write my dreams down like I should. I tend to remember most of them when they are recurring, or they have similar themes and settings. This week seems to be more about the camps. More details about the need for my own and for my family preparations...we still have a lot to prepare temporally, but it has been made very clear to me that I still have a great deal of work to do in the areas of spiritual preparedness. Increasing my faith and obedience. Increasing my trust in the Lord. Listening for and then acting upon promptings from the spirit - in even the little things in my life. Continuing to learn to discern in all things and in all circumstances, as this will become increasingly important. More dreams about ancestors, family history, temple work, healing and progression on the earth as well as what is going on in the spirit world. The hastening of the work here on the earth as well as in the spirit world. Dreamed last night that the time had come ---that is was actually, really, truly the time for us to pack up quickly and leave for places of refuge. I was given more details about how to go about doing this in a timely manner and in an efficient manner. I have continued to feel a weight and responsibility to warn my loved ones and others ----and this has been showing up in my dreams as well. Once again dreamed Lehi's dream of the rivers of water, mists of darkness, great and spacious building, the need to hold on to the iron rod so we can reach our destination in safety. Sadly, the majority of my friends and family members are still not awake as to the things going on in the world and where we are headed. I was again reminded that I have a responsibility to warn and testify but that we all have our agency and are on our own path and journey. I have once again been told that I need to do all I can to be prepared, and I need to let go and trust that the Lord is over all and that He has a plan in place - ready to go - and everything will work out as it should. Not to worry or get anxious - that is not of Him. Focus on the positive - focus on what I CAN do not on what I cannot do. Have faith. Act on that faith. Strengthen my faith. Focus my energies and attentions on those who uplift and edify, and stay away from that which takes away from, deters, distracts, negates. Your thoughts? |

Prepare for id-Feb/March Time Frame
I have gone back and forth trying to decide if I should
post anything at this time about what we may be in for in the very near
future - and finally I have decided that the spirit has continued to impress
upon my mind the need to share my thoughts and feelings regarding some of the
very near future events that are coming our way.
Forgive me for my brevity and please try to be patient and understanding as you read what I share. I will try to do my best to share what I feel impressed to share, but in advance I need to let you know that although I have been directed by the spirit to post this - it's purpose is to serve as a voice of warning as well as to hopefully inspire even just one person who may need to hear this message. For others, perhaps it will only serve as a reminder of the times we now live in, and yet for another, perhaps the purpose in my sharing at this time is to bring some sort of comfort to those who may now or in the near future need to hear these words and at some point in time reflect on them knowing that as tragedy strikes, we can each take comfort in knowing that the Lord is in control and that even the most awful things that happen to us and others that are caused by the evil acts and intents of the wicked are, can and will continue to be changed for out ultimate good as we seek the Lord and allow His power and majesty to fill our lives and help us become the people He not only intends for us to be, but also who we are destined to be. We have been foreordained to fulfill important individual missions in this life and not only does the Lord know who we are, Satan and his minions do too. The question then becomes, "Do I know who I am?" and "Am I willing to do whatever is necessary and to do my part in the great eternal plan of happiness?" So having said that, here goes: I continue to have dreams and very strong impressions (which started last September) - that in mid February, starting the second week - but particularly getting very difficult in the third week of February and into March - there are some very difficult days ahead for many. I am specifically speaking about some seriously wicked actions by those in power who are planning and preparing to attempt several wicked acts....specifically pertaining to biological and chemical destructive actions which will affect many people. I do not want to be a fear monger or worry anyone - nor do I want this thread to turn into people asking me for more information. I respectfully ask that you do not probe me for details about what I am referring to. I promise you that if I feel directed by the spirit to share more, then I will. I also promise you that I will in no way compromise my relationship to the Lord and His trust in me in giving me the blessing of having dreams and other personal revelation regarding this or any other matter now or in the future. There is too much at stake ----quite frankly my own personal salvation and safety (physically and spiritually speaking). I am only posting this because this has weighed on me so heavily for so long (I was shown these things the first time back in 2004 and it is very surreal that the time is here...) I am rarely given dates - usually just things in a kind of sequential order and sometimes not even that. The purpose for this post is to testify that Jesus is the Christ. Secondly, to testify of the importance of food storage, water storage (and purification), and of having other emergency prep items on hand in our homes where we have access INSIDE. I am talking about being sure you have at least the basics the church has counseled us to have regarding three months of rotatable food storage of foods we eat on a regular basis, as well as heat, light and cooking sources for up to at least three months. Additionally focusing on the importance of WATER ---storage for a min of two weeks but ideally three to six months worth (which means at least one gallon per person per day plus any you may need for pets and/or individual circumstances regarding special medical conditions etc). I also testify of the absolute importance of having at least three months worth of basic personal hygiene items on hand ---as well as any medications you need or may anticipate needing in an emergency situation...for example in a pandemic, or in the case of food or water contamination on a large scale. Most importantly, I testify that miracles can and do and will happen. I testify that God loves all of his children and He has a plan for each of them. I testify that He know you and each of us individually and that He has foreseen these and all future events and He has a battle plan in action even as we speak. Trust in Him. Rely on Him. Do not fear. Follow the Prophet. Obey. Listen to the spirit and carefully discern. He will fulfill ALL of his promises. He will not fail us. Continue to fight the good fight knowing that as we stick to the basics and do all we can do, He takes care of the rest. |

Pay Close Attention to Syria, Iran and Libya
Although there are some powers that be that would like to
distract the American people from what is really going on, I feel impressed
that I need to express my immediate concern not only about domestic issues in
so many areas, but also about things going on globally.
I encourage you to pay attention and to learn as much as you can about what is really going on with the U.S. and China and Russia, as well as with Syria, Iran and Libya. Several years ago - starting in 2004 - I was shown that at some point in time in the future, Libya will be amongst those that strike Israel. I believe those actions are not far off in the sequence of events that will soon unfold. It is a complicated issue and I do not wish to go into more detail, but do want to encourage others to learn as much as they can about world events. Read, study, ponder and pray. However, do not fear. Have faith and hope in God's eternal plan. His is a perfect plan. A just plan. A merciful plan. He is the source of all knowledge and He will tell you what you need to know to fulfill His purposes, if you choose to ask and are then willing and ready to receive and then act. Trust Him. He Loves His children. He loves you. He will not abandon us. We do our part and His promises are sure. I know this to be true. Have courage, and continue to fight the good fight on the side that is going to win the battle. |

Some of what I was shown...
As mentioned in a few other posts, I have had dreams since
I was a little girl. It was not until after I had an NDE in the fall of 2004,
that the veil then became very thin for me, and at that point in time I went
from having one or two dreams a month, to having dreams very regularly -
almost nightly.
In 2006, I confided in a friend in my ward, that I was having some very intense dreams that were of spiritual significance. At that time, I was feeling very weighed down with some of what I had been shown, and I was also trying to figure out what the Lord wanted from me and why He was giving me these experiences. They were intense and oft times frightening. Not all, but many. I also sought the guidance and counsel of my Bishop and Stake President. Many of the things I was shown were also uplifting and faith promoting. I knew that I needed to document at least some of what I had been shown. I was quite overwhelmed at the task, especially because I was a mother of three young children and did not have time during the day to write and by evening time I was too tired, especially because I was not resting very well at night, in great part due to the fact that I was dreaming so much and would often be awakened between the hours of 3 a.m. - 5 a.m. After visiting with this dear friend some more, and finally feeling the courage to share a few of my dreams with her - and feeling that it was ok to confide in her - I told her of my feelings and expressed my great concern with the weight of the matter. She very kindly offered to type some of them up for me as I dictated them to her. This came as an answer to my many prayers and I will be forever grateful to her for her friendship, kindness and service in my behalf. It is this same friend who later that year introduced me to Roger's books, Sarah Menet's book, and this website. She gave the books to me as a gift because of the things I shared with her and her realization that they were similar, if not identical in some cases, to many of those experiences others had had and were having at the time. I give you this background to give a little perspective and understanding of the context in which they are written. I will post just a few of the very basic dreams she typed the first day we got together and I started telling her what came to mind first and foremost at that time. For authenticity - I will stick to posting exactly as it was typed. I will only post those that I feel prompted to share and hope that those reading will take these messages as they are intended to be given....as my experiences through personal revelation for me and my family that the Lord saw fit to give me pertaining to those things/topics He felt I needed to hear, see, and learn about. These are not necessarily in any order of significance in terms of when or how they were given, nor are they in sequential or chronological order. It was our first time we sat down together to document and since that time, miraculous things have happened and I have grown and come to understand a great deal more. I will divide these up into different posts to make it easier for those reading. |

Beware of snake oil...
I was shown years ago during my NDE that there would come
a day when there would be people professing that they had special
"miracle cures" for diseases...specifically cures for the upcoming
plagues -special "concoctions" if you will. I am NOT talking about
essential oils - pure essential oils are of the light and are truly helpful.
What I am referring to is something far different.
More recently, as in the past few weeks, I was again shown in a series of dreams that the time has indeed come that I need to raise a voice of warning to those who may fall prey to the very cunning tactics of the evil one. Namely, there are now and will continue to be in increasing numbers, individuals who will claim that they have been inspired through dreams and visions and even angels to make or develop certain oils or "cures" which will either protect people or heal people from the coming plagues. To this end and for this purpose, I am posting this thread to serve as a voice of warning and to testify to those who may read my words that I know this is not of the Lord. These "cures" are snake oil....but actually worse than snake oil, because not only do they not work to combat any virus, bacteria or other pathogen - they could actually be very dangerous to take and make one's symptoms worse and essentially further complicate the health issues. I awoke from the dream with a very specific message - which was this: "beware the plague be-gone" and other such things. ?????? Anyone else have any insights on this topic or can anyone help me out with this????? I have personally never met anyone selling this or proclaiming this but I was very clearly warned to stay away and was left with the strong impression that I am to warn others as well. please pm me if you feel prompted to do so. Thanks. |

The Lords timing
The Lord is not holding anything off - including the call
to gather. It has already been planned, the time is set and the Lord in His
perfect knowledge and perfect timing will call us to gather at exactly the
right moment.
Things are not coincidental. The Lord's timing is always perfect even when we don't know or understand why, or when or how. He knows all and is in complete control. There is no need to fear. We need to have faith. There is no need to get anxiety or worry. We need to have faith. We need to act out of faith, not fear. If we are spiritually preparing the way we need to be, then I believe we will also be getting temporally prepared. No matter our choices, no matter if we heed the call or not, the Lord's perfect plan will continue as planned, organized and scheduled and He will proceed as it was designed in the counsels in Heaven. This I know. No person, power or influence can or will stop the progression of the Lord's plan...and nothing will prevent Him from accomplishing His design. He is a loving, tender, merciful God and He is doing all in His power to encourage, uplift, teach, inspire and motivate His children into righteous action so that they can be recipients of His many tender mercies and the miracles available each and every day. Agency is an eternal principle - a guiding principle. Whether we believe in a "call out" or not - that will not change the Lord's actions. It is going to happen. It is up to us to decide who our master is and whether or not we have the faith required to act, and whether or not we choose to listen to and follow the counsel of our living prophets and apostles today and everyday. |

This is my understanding
My understanding is that some of the supplies and the
majority of the food storage will be transported by the church.
I don't know individual circumstances because I was shown mainly what pertains to me and my family, but for us, there are certain things we will be required to bring ourselves and large semi trucks picked up most of our food storage, some tools, supplies etc. but we were driving a full size SUV with a car topper and pulling a small trailer behind us. Our car and the trailer were packed full. As a note of interest - we bought a full size SUV last Dec. 2013. My husband researched vehicles and found the one we ended up buying. I specifically DID NOT tell him what kind it was, what shape, what color, I did not even tell him it was a full size SUV that I was shown. He researched and decided what was best, then we went and looked at about ten different vehicles and decided together what the right vehicle for our family was. I waited until we had made the final decision together to tell him that the SUV we just bought in December is the same vehicle I was shown that we were driving when we left the Kansas City area and drove West. We have been married over eighteen years. My husband is a great mechanic so we always buy used vehicles and keep them for about five years. That is our plan with this car as well. We will not own it more than five years. Thought some of you might find that of interest and perhaps it will give some of you a better idea as to the time frame for things. I think we are looking at a few years at most until we gather, but we will have this car when it is time. |

My two cents
There will be some camps that have RVs, trailers and
campers, but not all.
Most of those I was shown were for the very elderly, sick, pregnant and new mothers and babies being born ---like makeshift hospitals. Even if you have an RV, motor home, trailer, or camper I suggest you invest in a good tent as well. I would not count on being able to live in anything other than a tent. Some of the camps are so remote that you have to back pack or horse pack everything in - no way to get those campers, motor homes, RV,s trailers there.... Just my opinion... Think portability as much as possible. I know that the camp we are going to be in - at least the areas I was shown, there were not RV's there. |

My answer and one of the reasons why
No.
I would rather barter toiletries, food, medicine, water... I have seen first hand what actually happens to someone when they are drunk.. I am talking about the dark side and the influence and power they have over the individual. Literally there are dark entities that swarm around the individual, waiting for just the right time and opportunity to make their attack and upon doing so they take possession. They usually enter at the crown of their head ----- it's a gruesome thing to witness. The more intoxicated one gets, (or high...if they are doing drugs), the more entities there are and it is not a pretty sight. It is truly horrific. I honestly feel that if most people knew and understood and could see this and what is really going on around us, many people may think twice about drinking, doing drugs, or other poor choices. I will never knowingly and willingly participate in aiding the adversary in any way, no matter what I may seek to gain. Since I know that this happens, I would not be able to live with myself knowing I had contributed to another persons demise. |

My bishop just shared this with me
Our stake recently went through some boundary changes
about two months ago. Our ward boundaries changed, our bishop was released
and we now have a new bishop.
So last Sunday I went to see my new bishop to tell him briefly of my experience and give him a copy of my book, so that he is aware since there are now half a dozen people or more in my ward and stake who have read the book. Since we just moved to Arizona last summer, I do not really know this man. We have met a few times prior and would say hello, but prior to my visit with him on Sunday, he knew nothing about me. During our conversation, he said he felt prompted to share something with me. He immediately turned to the book of Joel. It only took him a matter of seconds before he found what he was looking for. Before reading the scripture, he shared with me that it had been a seminary scripture and that he had once had it marked in a previous set of scriptures but that it had been so long since he had read that particular passage it was not marked in his current set of scriptures. He told me that the first thing that came to his mind when I began telling him some of my experience was this passage of scripture in Joel. It is in Joel 2:28-28 (pgs. 1135-1136 in the Bible). "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit." We discussed some more things and then I shared with him that I appreciated that he shared that scripture with me. Although I am very familiar with those passages, I had not read them in quite a long time myself. However, as an interesting note (at least I think it is interesting!) - prior to writing my book and often while in the process of writing my book, as I would sometimes struggle with having enough faith to write what I knew I needed to write (for fear of being wrongly judged, accused of several things to include "not having authority or stewardship," not having the priesthood, not having been "set apart" and even knowing that I would be called a false prophet, being attacked and accused and having people essentially say, "who do you think you are, some kind of prophetess" and the Lord letting me know that I would even be accused of priestcraft) - OFTEN the spirit whispered these exact passages of scripture to me. I can't even begin to tell you what an incredibly amazing experience I had writing this thread, let alone my book. I have learned over the years to discern the light from the dark -(which comes from profound experiences with both, right? For those who have experienced this you know exactly what I am talking about) I had some of the most intense experiences with both while writing my book. I relied very heavily on the spirit (as one would expect when given such a task to accomplish) and prayed continually throughout each day for insight, knowledge, protection and more. The attacks from the adversary were intense, and there were certain sections in the book that brought on more intensity and opposition than other sections. This was one way I was able to judge some of the importance of the message. The opposition actually gave me additional clarity about the importance of the message because I was able to clearly discern that they were very upset that the message was finally being written. I will tell you that the sections about the Foreign Troops invading, the coming devastation, and the Places of Refuge being prepared were some of those sections that I knew with certainty that the Adversary absolutely DID NOT want me to write about. He was not and is not happy that I wrote the book. He was not and is not happy that I wrote about those things. He was not and is not happy that the book is now out and in circulation. This book is not about me. This book is about the Lord's message and His Plan of Salvation for His Children. This book is what He wanted me to write so that I can serve His children and do my little part in proclaiming the truthfulness of His Gospel and in spreading His message of love, hope, healing, and light. Thank you to those of you who have ordered and read the book. Thank you to those who are doing their part in spreading the important messages the Lord wants His children to know. We each have our foreordained missions and it is so important that we each step up to the plate and do what we know is right, what we know we need to do, that we accomplish what we were sent here to do. I am grateful for your strength and testimonies. Your faith strengthens mine. |

What we chose for a tent
We are on a limited budget but knew we needed to get a
more reliable tent. The other tents we have are just simple light weight
tents we have used over the years for fun recreational camping - not
expensive and just made of nylon. We have kept those tents, but last year we
also finally invested in a nice canvas tent.
My husband researched several tents, and for the money, we finally decided on what we felt would be the best fit for our family of five - given our limited finances and the fact that we knew we needed a canvas tent with a stove option. I also insisted on having a built in floor - which limited us quite a bit and ruled out a typical wall tent. I just know that although we go camping regularly and I love the out of doors, I do not like the idea of living in a tent without a floor. Critters, bugs, snakes, water or snow and snow melt seeping into the tent etc. We have purchased many additional tarps and plan to utilize those inside and out as well for extra reinforcement, but I want the tent sealed. Soooo....we purchased a Selkirk Spike Tent that is 6'4" tall at the center. I am 5'10" inches tall, my husband is 6'2" and my oldest son who is 15 is already about 6'5" so we wanted room to stand up inside. We got a 14X14 but they come in smaller sizes as well. My husband has strapped the tent onto an external frame backpack and is able to carry it that way for a few miles at a time. It is about 80 lbs not including the poles and fly. My teenage son carries those separately. It is heavy, but much lighter and more portable than the regular canvas wall tents. We knew we needed something portable but all weather and durable. We have only gone camping twice with it so far. Last October mid month, and then again over Spring break this past March. We were in the Grand Canyon in March. So we had temps down both times to about 30 degrees and we were warm even without the use of a stove. Had light rain and did not have the raid fly on and it was fine. Haven't had a chance to use it in heavy rain or snow yet, but anticipate that for this coming fall and winter as we plan to do some winter camping ---- My husband and boys have done plenty of winter camping for scouts over the years, but always in the nylon tents. My daughter and I have only camped in really cold temps once and no snow but ice and sleet and that was several years ago and miserable because we were not as prepared as I thought we were. It was a good learning lesson and practice. Never thought I would say I am looking forward to going camping in the winter, but actually I am so that we can test out our tent and other equipment so we know what else we need to do to prepare. Anyhow...here is the link to the website where we purchased our tent. The Wall Shop is in Idaho. http://www.walltentshop.com/spiketents.html Hope that helps any who may still be researching and trying to decide on the best option for their family. If we were in a different financial situation and could afford something else, I am not sure what we would choose, but we knew we needed to pay cash for the tent and supplies and this is what we could afford. So far so good but I guess time will tell. |

Beware of snake oil...
I was shown years ago during my NDE that there would come
a day when there would be people professing that they had special
"miracle cures" for diseases...specifically cures for the upcoming
plagues -special "concoctions" if you will. I am NOT talking about
essential oils - pure essential oils are of the light and are truly helpful.
What I am referring to is something far different.
More recently, as in the past few weeks, I was again shown in a series of dreams that the time has indeed come that I need to raise a voice of warning to those who may fall prey to the very cunning tactics of the evil one. Namely, there are now and will continue to be in increasing numbers, individuals who will claim that they have been inspired through dreams and visions and even angels to make or develop certain oils or "cures" which will either protect people or heal people from the coming plagues. To this end and for this purpose, I am posting this thread to serve as a voice of warning and to testify to those who may read my words that I know this is not of the Lord. These "cures" are snake oil....but actually worse than snake oil, because not only do they not work to combat any virus, bacteria or other pathogen - they could actually be very dangerous to take and make one's symptoms worse and essentially further complicate the health issues. I awoke from the dream with a very specific message - which was this: "beware the plague be-gone" and other such things. ?????? Anyone else have any insights on this topic or can anyone help me out with this????? I have personally never met anyone selling this or proclaiming this but I was very clearly warned to stay away and was left with the strong impression that I am to warn others as well. please pm me if you feel prompted to do so. Thanks. |

I speak the truth and make no apologies for it
I speak the truth and make no apologies for it.
I am very much aware that we each have our individual plans that were designed in the Counsels in Heaven before the world was created. My knowledge of certain things has not come easily - in fact it has come from years of pain and suffering and my faith being severely tested in ways that only God knows. I have no problem respecting other peoples views - in fact I have great respect for each of God's children and I feel immense love. I will not debate this, I will not be pulled into a contentious thread or conversation on this topic because that would serve no purpose other than to spread discord, discontent and negativity which is not of the Lord. I am not concerned about whether people believe me or not - because it is not about me it is about spreading light and truth and bearing witness and testimony. I know what I know and it is what is and as far as I am concerned that is the end of the conversation for me. You can attack me all you want, call me what ever you want, threaten however you want, do what ever you think you need to do, but it will not change the truth that I know without a doubt and I know without a doubt that I have been foreordained to this mission in my life. I was given that specific mission directly from the Lord and it is He to whom I answer, not man. I am confident that the Prophets and Apostles are not only okay with my message, my testimony and my witness, including what I have written in my book, "A Greater Tomorrow," I have been given a witness that they have been made aware of it and know the purposes it will serve in helping to warn and hopefully prepare many who need to hear the message at this time in this way. For those who have not read the book of Joel lately (or ever), perhaps now would be a good time. I am a simple hand maiden doing my best to serve the Lord. Again, I know what I know and I make no apologies for it. It is what it is and it is the truth. To each his own. Just as a point of interest I will share that I am VERY different from Denver Snuffer, Ordain Woman and any other apostate. I am a worthy temple recommend holding daughter of God who is in good standing not only in the church but with the Lord. My past two Stake presidents as well as my current Stake President are very much aware and have known for years of my experiences and the truths I have learned. They believe me. My past two Bishops and my current Bishop are very much aware of me and my experiences and the knowledge and mission I have been given and they believe me. Not only do they all believe me, they have been there all along helping me, supporting me, listening to me, and guiding me. It is what it is. I testify and witness boldly because I am not afraid to do so and because I know I need to. Hopefully my boldness will be of benefit in serving those who need to hear. For those who have ears to hear, eyes to see and hearts to feel ---the message will get through. I know this too! I recognize that those who seek to criticize, hurt, negate, put-down or otherwise try to detract from the message do so in part by using distraction techniques aimed specifically at me - essentially "kill the messenger." I am simply the messenger. It is not my plan. It is God's plan, I am just a simple messenger and if one chooses to accept the message, that is great. If one chooses to ignore or reject the message, that is not my issue. That's a personal thing and it in no way changes my position with the Lord, my standing in the Church, or my testimony and knowledge of the things I have been shown. Okay. I am finished. I am done with this thread. I will not post again about this topic. I have said enough and have clarified what I need to. I will not allow you to rope me in. Simply put - when the Lord commands - I do it. |

Thank you for sharing
Thank you for sharing.
Just want to add that I know that these things will happen much sooner ----but that I have been told/shown that there is significance to the ten year mark as well.... Within the next few years - an invitation to gather shortly thereafter things will change dramatically in the world - particularly on U.S. soil. For those who have read my book, you know what I am referring to-----life altering changes. After camping and preparing for several more years for the Saviors return, some will be called to establish the New Jerusalem. Adam-ondi-Ahman --the gathering of the lost tribes - etc. etc. Big days ahead but glorious ones for those who listen to the spirit and follow the prophet. The Days of Sorrow will soon be upon us. The Lord is hastening His work in every way. Time is getting short. Do not delay. Remember the parable of the 10 virgins. We cannot afford to be found without enough oil for our lamps. The bridegroom soon cometh and we will not have time or ability to go find more oil for our lamps and still be able to make it to the wedding. |

The collapse...
The collapse does not happen until after the Saints have
been invited to gather, which happens in early Spring of the year -
My feelings are within the next two years. The call to gather is a call to action - faith is tested and it comes when things are not that bad and not much different than they are today ----which is one of the reasons so many don't go. It is not a rescue mission after the calamities have already begun- it is a "pre-rescue mission" before the worst of it starts. Beware of those who give specific dates...this is not the pattern the Lord uses. He may tell times and seasons - rough estimates - as things get closer may tell specific days when needed - ----but not given from a place of fear but rather one of love and faith. Perhaps there will be some temporary bank closings before the call to gather for safety - but the true and total collapse happens later - not this summer. I know this. I am traveling for three and a half weeks in July and was given specific counsel and direction to follow clear back last October 2013. In August I will be doing more traveling long distances - again - that would not be possible if the collapse had already happened or was going to happen. I have been told and shown specific things pertaining the events that will unfold for me and my family next fall and know that we are getting much closer. My days in Arizona are soon coming to an end which is another indication that we are getting much closer to the time for the gathering. |

Here are just a few
Too many to name over nine and a half years, but here are
just a few of the big ones that come to mind quickly.
2008 and 2012 elections Earthquakes and tsunamis around the world - including Fukishima and Chile, amongst others. Hurricane Katrina Sandy Hook incident Hurricane Sandy Boston bombings Benghazi Recent release of Bergdahl This past winter and the crazy snow storms that hit most of the U.S. Flooding, mudslides, drought - the effects there. The outbreak of various viruses - HINI and variations Swine Flu, problems with cattle, bird flu Water contamination economic conditions Russian/Ukraine stuff Iran and what currently going on there Wars in the Middle East China/Japan feuds China and Russia and their developing relationship U.N. corruption increasing Building of FEMA camps Government creating more dependence Obamacare fiasco and lies Venezuela Immigration issues increasing Race issues increasing Obama and his blatant disregard for the Constitution - increased corruption on every level Egypt Christians all over the world being persecuted and in many places tortured and killed The LGBT issues increasing Hastening of the work - increase in number of missionaries serving The building of several new temples over the last several years (I was shown where some of these temples would be built and now they are in use) I think that is probably enough right now... |

Specifics for me
I was shown more specifics on circumstances pertaining to
me and my family, including things we needed to do to prepare more as well as
some of the way to organize our items.
These were directions given to me personally just for my family, so I don't care to share them publicly. They included much of what many already know - items that should be stored including food, clothing, tents, sleeping bags, tools, medical stuff, etc. Also included a strong warning message that the time is indeed getting closer and that this is real ---that we really do need to continue preparing the best we can and do everything in our power to follow the spirit and discern correctly. The dreams also included scenes about my extended family and some close friends - and how I am to handle difficult and sometimes painful situations, especially with those who do not see, or who for whatever reason do not choose to go. I need to remember that no matter what other people choose to do - I know what is right and I need to follow through with that. What are my priorities? How strong is my faith? Don't let fear get in the way of my faith. Trust the Lord in all things. Be strong. It was impressed upon my mind that I still have a great deal of work to do in many areas, including improving my health ---specifically building my physical endurance to be able to withstand the physical challenges that await us. |

Questions answered
Thank you for your kind remarks.
In answer to your questions: 1) Yes - events that lead up 2) It is too late this year - I was shown that it happens in the Spring plus there are still other things that have to happen first. Sorry - can't go into detail there. 3) As far as identifying the leader from the Middle East - no, I do not have an interest in that. Even if I were shown who he is, I do not have permission to identify him publicly or to discuss that topic any further. Thanks! |

Keep thinking about and dreaming about...
I keep thinking about and dreaming about how important it
is for us to prepare spiritually.
Since I dream very regularly, I don't always write my dreams down like I should. I tend to remember most of them when they are recurring, or they have similar themes and settings. This week seems to be more about the camps. More details about the need for my own and for my family preparations...we still have a lot to prepare temporally, but it has been made very clear to me that I still have a great deal of work to do in the areas of spiritual preparedness. Increasing my faith and obedience. Increasing my trust in the Lord. Listening for and then acting upon promptings from the spirit - in even the little things in my life. Continuing to learn to discern in all things and in all circumstances, as this will become increasingly important. More dreams about ancestors, family history, temple work, healing and progression on the earth as well as what is going on in the spirit world. The hastening of the work here on the earth as well as in the spirit world. Dreamed last night that the time had come ---that is was actually, really, truly the time for us to pack up quickly and leave for places of refuge. I was given more details about how to go about doing this in a timely manner and in an efficient manner. I have continued to feel a weight and responsibility to warn my loved ones and others ----and this has been showing up in my dreams as well. Once again dreamed Lehi's dream of the rivers of water, mists of darkness, great and spacious building, the need to hold on to the iron rod so we can reach our destination in safety. Sadly, the majority of my friends and family members are still not awake as to the things going on in the world and where we are headed. I was again reminded that I have a responsibility to warn and testify but that we all have our agency and are on our own path and journey. I have once again been told that I need to do all I can to be prepared, and I need to let go and trust that the Lord is over all and that He has a plan in place - ready to go - and everything will work out as it should. Not to worry or get anxious - that is not of Him. Focus on the positive - focus on what I CAN do not on what I cannot do. Have faith. Act on that faith. Strengthen my faith. Focus my energies and attentions on those who uplift and edify, and stay away from that which takes away from, deters, distracts, negates. Your thoughts? |

Saints moving
There are too many details to try to explain here because
there will be so many different people affected and involved but I will
expound briefly.
My dad lives in Southern Virginia. I saw him coming out West. I saw people from all over the country, including the East coast - upper, middle and south - coming Westward - stopping for some time in the Kansas City area and other parts of the Midwest before moving on. The Church now owns land in Florida that will become a place of refuge for many. A few in other places, but most are in the states I mention in the book. There are too many places and I am not to give exact specifics, because I have not been given specific information as to how these camps are organized in terms of who is assigned to go where, when etc. So, I can't speak for you or anyone else because I do not have stewardship over you or your family or anyone else other than me and my family. Hope that helps a bit. My suggestion to you or others, no matter where you live, is that you prepare to go wherever, whenever, no matter how far the distance and no matter what you have to leave behind. The whole country will be hit hard, but the coasts will be completely devastated by both natural and man-made disasters. |

For the curious minded
For those who would like to learn more about some of the
possibilities and situations we may be facing in the future, I highly
recommend that you read Chad Daybells books, particularly the last two books
in his new series, "Times of Trouble"
The first book is titled, "Evading Babylon" The second book is "Martial Law" I have wanted to read these books for some time, however I just read them this past week, in additional to several of his other books, because I was specifically told not to read them until my story was written at published. Although written as a fictional series, many of the things Chad writes about are identical, or at least similar to some of what I have been shown. Just saying....for those who are curious and wanting to know more details....Chads books are a good option. I believe you can order them through AVOW --- I would be interested to hear feedback from those who have read them. |

follow up
Elaine - I really appreciate your dream that you shared. I
have had very similar dreams myself - and I do believe that we will be
sharing - or at least some of us - depending on where we end up. My "let
me be clear" post was in reaction to the posts that came after yours. So
sorry that I didn't clarify that better.
You are correct - the members will be asked to share - but not with those who have not contributed in some way (and my understanding is that means different things for different people, but there will be certain requirements - but I am not going to get into those details because that is not something I have been given permission to discuss in greater detail). Every circumstance will be unique and I am not at liberty to say anymore about details of how things will be organized or who will be where, when, or how things will be organized and set up. While I appreciate all those who have genuine, sincere questions, I need to re-state once again that if I could say more I would - but I have written what I can in the book. I appreciate all of the genuine interest in my story and a desire that we all share in wanting to learn as much as possible and do what we can to prepare the best we can. I appreciate all of the kind messages people have sent me and am grateful for the positive support, encouragement and feedback. Having said that - I would ask going forward that people please respect the boundaries I have set and that the Lord has given me, and please, please refrain from asking for more details on what I have shared. I have spent hours and hours the past few weeks trying to personally respond to each and every email and private message that has been sent to me, and in all honesty, now that the book is released, the demand is just increasing and there is no way I can keep up at this pace. Many people have been very kind and have written with the purpose of thanking me, or encouraging, or sharing their own experiences, and for that I am very grateful. Others have simply sent me messages inquiring more and wanting more and more answers to questions that they have. I understand where people are coming from - but I need to encourage people to ask the Lord these questions and get the answers that they seek from Him, not from me. There is a proper order for things, and I do not have stewardship over anyone other than myself and my children. The purpose in sharing my story is to share MY STORY - what I was shown that the Lord wants me to know for me and my family. It is also to testify of Him, testify of His eternal Plan, and to testify of Gospel truths. In doing so, the book is also meant to help serve as an additional witness as well as a voice of warning to others - in hopes that it will inspire, uplift, encourage and motivate those who read it to do their own study of the scriptures, seek their own answers to prayer, and discover for themselves what the Lord would have them do on their own individual life journey. It is not to be used for any other means - other than for God's purposes. Although the book is about my experience - hopefully it is apparent to those who read it that this book is not about me - it is about the message the Lord wants His children to hear. For those who have eyes to see, ears to hear, and hearts that are open - the spirit will teach, testify, warn, educate, uplift and inspire in every way needed as we seek it, and as we do our part. There are no shortcuts to finding these answers on our own. Each and every one of us have been promised that we can know the truth of ALL things, if we seek it and study it out and then take it to the Lord. While I may know the answers to many of the questions posed, it is not right for me to answer them - for many reasons - one being that I would essentially be taking the opportunity and blessing away from others to be able to greater exercise their faith and hope, as well as the growth that occurs when we seek truth from the proper and pure source of knowledge and wisdom. So I would ask that rather than coming to me for answers to the mysteries you do not yet fully understand, that you please ask our Father. I do not want to put anyone off, or hurt feelings, or offend in any way - because I truly believe that most have good intentions - however it puts me in a very awkward position when I have people coming to me out of curiosity, speculation, idealization....what ever one might call it. The spirit has continually told me that I am to stay away from that and that if I share something that is meant to be of a personal, sacred nature for me and that I do not have permission to share - then I face very real, very serious eternal consequences. So I hope people can understand what I mean and where I am coming from. I am learning right along with all of you and just doing the best I can to figure things out as I go too. It is weird for me to all of a sudden in the past few weeks go from living my daily life as a wife, mother and daughter of God, to now having my very personal and very sacred story out there for the whole world to read and for anyone to interpret, misinterpret, comment on, discuss, review, analyze etc etc. and in several cases already, have people all of a sudden think I am cool or special or any more important than I was before I wrote the book. I am just me....with all of my many imperfections, short-comings and flaws. To go from being unable to share my story for so many years, with the exception of a few very close friends and family members - to now adjust to being bombarded by complete strangers is quite overwhelming. So I appreciate your patience, kindness, sensitivity, and understanding. |

Let me be clear
Let me be clear about what I was shown and what I actually
wrote in the book.
I never said anyone would be required to come to the church and turn their food in, or share it with others who did not have their own food. I was shown that the church leaders sent an inventory around asking about very specific items and had people write in or check things off on the list. They were also asked if they had food storage and other preps, and if so, approximately how much. This was for several purposes - first and foremost to gain an understanding of where people were and how prepared they were temporally, as well as to take a basic inventory of some of the most important and major tools and supplies that would be needed in camps etc., This was not a call or directive for people to turn their items in - to donate anything on a local level. This was not to collect food storage or other prep items. This was an inventory to survey the needs of the people and to ascertain what else might be needed to fill in the gaps. This was not a call or directive for the people who have prepared and followed the counsel on temporal preparedness to turn around and give it all to the church to take care of and feed and cloth etc those who had not heeded the counsel. Now, whether or not the church then later collects some of these items, that is another matter - but as to the distribution of those things that I mentioned were on the survey - I never said anything about that. Let me be very clear - I did not say who, when, or how those food storage or any other items would be utilized or distributed. Although I have an understanding of some of these things, that is not under my stewardship and therefore please make no mistake in what I have clearly said - please do not extrapolate on my words. In some of the church sponsored camps the people will eventually live the law of consecration - but as we all know, most of us have a long way to go in understanding this doctrine, let alone actually living it. There will be a purging and cleansing process that will occur before this happens and no one will be "required" or commanded to do anything against their free will. When those who are in these particular locations get to the point that this law is instigated, it will come of no surprise to them and it will be because the people faithfully choose to live this law because they know it is for the better good - their own lives, their families lives, and the whole. Agency is an eternal principle. At no point in time will anyone be forcing anyone to do anything. At no point in time will the Lord demand something like this. That would be completely contrary to God's ways and would go against eternal truths, principles and doctrines. Those who teach otherwise are either themselves deceived, or they are seeking to confuse, deceive, and/or invoke fear and contention. |

Some of Chapter 11
Safety in the Camps
It was made known to me that even after the earthquake in Utah, the prophet and apostles were still organized and able to conduct business. They had prepared for these events and had planned accordingly. It was made very clear to me however, that there was an increased need for the Saints to listen to and obey the Lord. It became critical for each person to live in such a manner that they were in tune with the spirit and were thus led by the spirit in almost everything they needed to do. While traveling to the camps and while in the camps, things were very orderly. They were organized and there was leadership within the camps. It was imperative that those who were in the camps lived in a manner that was conducive to the spirit, so that they could hear the promptings of the spirit and act upon those promptings. There was a great need for each individual to be able to discern truth for themselves. This ability to discern directly impacted their personal and family safety and protection, speaking both temporally and spiritually. Increased faith and obedience led to increased guidance and protection from the adversary and others who sought to do harm - both the living and the dead. |

Yes
Yes, I did see children in the spirit world, and yes they
were those who have already been born as well as those who will yet be born.
And yes, you are correct, we are usually "seen" as young adult spirits in the spirit world. And YES, I do think there is going to be a lot happening in 2014....or more I should say. Food, water and other things will continue to sky rocket in price and supplies will be limited. There will be some big events happening in the coming months, globally as well as in the U.S. Sorry I can't say more. If I could I would have included it in the book. I strongly suggest that we all just keep doing the best we can to prepare mentally, emotionally, physically - and especially spiritually |

Ours too...
After my NDE and several dreams regarding last days
events, I felt impressed to purchase mini combination scriptures for each of
our bags, as well as a mini hymn book and mini primary song book for each
bag. They add a bit of weight to the bags, but will be well worth it when the
time comes that we need to grab and go.
The scriptures will be essential and the primary song book and hymn books will be an added blessing ----think of the early LDS pioneers and how little they could bring with them ---- but they brought their scriptures and regularly sang and danced around the camp fire --- which brought them joy, unity, increased faith and hope, and lightened their burdens. |

Just thought I would share...
Just had the thought tonight that I would share something
of significance that has recently happened for our family.
This past December, 2013, we purchased a Nissan Armada SUV. My husband found the car online, then we looked at it and several others and decided this was the right one. Why is this significant? Because in 2004, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2013 I was shown that exact car in various dreams - some of which have to do with us driving it to Utah to a Place of Refuge....and this is yet another example of things I have dreamed actually coming to fruition. Now, some may say - well, you dreamed about it, so of course you would look for a car that fits that description. Nope. I honestly can tell you that when it comes to buying vehicles in our family, my husband is the guy for this. He does the research and shopping, then shows them to me online and then we always shop around to several local places and people before we actually buy a car. He's been looking for our next vehicle for over a year, and we really did not want to purchase another car until Feb or March time frame, but the minute he showed me this SUV, I immediately recognized it as the one I had seen in my dreams. I did not tell him that. I purposefully did not mention any details about the car I had been shown in my dreams. All he knew was that the car we had in the future when these events occur, was a dark colored SUV pulling a trailer. I knew it was a full size SUV, but I did not even tell him that. He came to his own conclusion that we needed a full size SUV to be able to haul our things. He did the research and initial shopping - we literally drove half a dozen SUV's the weekend we bought this car, and then prayed about what we should do. The answer was clear for both of us, so we purchased this one. One step closer....and it is very surreal. |

Can't remember if I mentioned this...
I can't remember if I mentioned this, and I don't have
time to look right now, but I just wanted to clarify WHY I believe the Lord
showed me that DOWNTOWN Denver area becomes a dangerous place, JUST LIKE
ABOUT EVERY OTHER LARGE CITY...
He showed me this because I am one of ten children in my family. When I was shown this dream for the first time. I already had a few siblings living in the greater Denver area. I have driven from Kansas to Denver more times than I can remember to even count. Often I have then gone from Denver area on to Utah to visit more friends and family. Until three years ago, I had my mom and three siblings and their families living in Utah in the Salt Lake Valley. So, Denver has served as a stop off point for me going West for over 18 years now. That's the way I always went. Now, fast forward to this past summer (so 10 tens after I had that first dream about this). At the current time. every single one of my siblings, with the exception of one sister and brother in law, ALL of my siblings and their families live in the Denver area, and my mom visits there at least once or twice a month for extended stays. With the exception of my three children, and a niece who lives in Utah, all of my nieces and nephews live there. That's a lot of family in Colorado. In my dream, once we get through Price Canyon, Utah, we meet up with my family, even though we had caravaned from Kansas with my husbands family. I am not sure why this is the case, but the Lord made it very clear to me that I would see some of my family once we got to Utah, but also that I was not to worry about those in Denver, despite the Dangers. Also, He made it very very clear to me that when we travel west, we are not to go the most direct route on I70 or I80. We came south and then up through New Mexico etc. As of Denver itself, I can attest that it is a wonderful place to live and there are tonz of really really strong, faithful members there and it is not only a beautiful place to live, it is one of my favorite places in the world. If it were part of the Lord's plan for me and my family to move to that area, I would be thrilled. However, I know we are where we are supposed to be right now, and I am happy to be here in Arizona because it is a wonderful place too. Having said that, given what I have been shown, I honestly have more concerns about being here in Tucson near Mexico and California than I would if I lived in Denver. I don't mean to cause anyone concern or fear - just want to put it into perspective. The Lord is in control and is going to take care of His people as they seek His guidance and listen to the spirit and follow the Prophet. We do our part and He does His. NO NEED TO LIVE IN FEAR. WE ARE TO LIVE IN FAITH AND TRUST IN GOD. Fear is not of the Lord ----so we need to do our best to focus on all of the good things, the positive things in our lives, knowing that the Lord always fulfills His promises. |

A little about me...and more details about my dreams
I am the second oldest of ten children. I was born in Salt
Lake City and am 41 yrs. old. My mom is from Utah, my dad originally from
Arizona but his family moved to California when he was in fourth grade so he
spent the rest of elementary through High School in the San Diego area. Both
sides of my family have pioneer ancestry - so they were original settlers in
Utah and Arizona.
When I was 2 1/2 yrs old, my father joined the military an an LDS chaplain. He served for thirty years and retired about ten years ago. So I grew up living in several places: Utah, Texas, Washington state, New Jersey, Hawaii, Upstate New York, Heidelberg , Germany, and Northern Virginia. My dad was working in the pentagon from my junior year of H.S. through my Freshman year at BYU Provo. While I was in college and single, my family moved to Pennsylvania and then Colorado Springs. After my freshman year of college, I lived year-round in Provo, Utah and married my husband in April of 1996. His parents are originally from Idaho but he was born in Oregon. When he was a month old, his dad had a job transfer to the Kansas City area, so he grew up in Kansas. We lived in various parts of Kansas from May of 1996- July 2013. While there, my dad was also stationed in Texas, Georgia, Washington D.C (for a second tour at the Pentagon), and then he retired from the military and took a job in Southern Virginia. Our first year of marriage we were finishing school at BYU. Then my husband attended Law School in Topeka, Kansas (about an hour west of Kansas City), and we lived there for a little over three years. His first job out of school was in Wichita, Kansas, where we lived for about two years. After that he took a job in Overland Park, Kansas which is a suburb of Kansas City. We lived in Overland Park for just under eleven years...30 minutes from Independence, Missouri and an hour and a half from Adam-Ondi-Ahman. So for most of my marriage and adult life, I have lived in Kansas and very close to many of the church sites. 2 1/2 hours from the Winter Quarters temple, and 30 min from the new Kansas City Missouri Temple. Prior to the KCMO temple being built and dedicated May 8, 2012 - we were assigned to the St. Louis, Missouri temple district which was a four hour drive to the temple. My husband took a new job last May in Tucson, Arizona. I joined him with our three children (ages 10, 13, and 15) the third week of July 2013 - after finishing school with the kids, getting our house ready to sell and us ready to move - and after my son and husband were able to go on our ward Scout High Adventure up to Minnesota to canoe the Boundary Waters. So I have been living near the NW side of Tucson for about six months now. I am sure there are several reasons why I have been given dreams that have to do with many areas of the country and other parts of the world - a few being that I have been blessed in my life to live and travel to many parts of the United States, Europe, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and a great deal of Canada....additionally I have many friends and family members who are living all over the world so I do not find it unusual that I would be given dreams that have to do with areas outside of the USA - however by far, most of my dreams are about things happening here in the U.S. I have been fortunate to travel at least once to every state in the U.S., with the exception of Alaska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Maine, Michigan, Montana, and Vermont. Actually I believe I have been to Vermont - but I was such a young child I do not remember it well. So, I have a pretty good grasp on at least basic American Geography and many other parts of the world - as well as a basic understanding of American and World History, other cultures and customs. I am also an avid reader and really enjoy learning about these things so aside from my personal experiences, I have also enjoyed reading and learning about a variety of subjects - including Church History. Many of the things I have learned came initially through dreams and some from my NDE - then after having them experiences, I will often read and research more about that location or topic. I just thought I would share some of my back ground with you since a few people asked where I live. I hope this helps to give at least a little perspective and understanding. I believe you are absolutely correct that the locations in which we live will play a huge role in how things go for each of us and what actions we will take and the directives we will be given. For example, when I was first shown that there would be tent Cities - particularly places of refuge and then in some cases, Cities of Light (I separate these because they are unique in their purpose and are not necessarily one in the same) - one of the places I was shown that would be a place of refuge for many saints and others was in Florida. I was shown and told there would be a place prepared by the church there. Just one example of me having been shown that location, although I do not live there, nor have I ever lived there, but I have been to Florida on vacation (just once). Last fall, 2013, the church purchased additional land in Florida - and it is a huge expanse of land. Not sure how many have heard this news - but the land is in the exact place that I was shown in 2004 that the church would prepare. Much of what I have been shown has to do with the Kansas City Area - including the Kansas City Temple and surrounding areas like Adam-Ondi- Ahman. As a child I went to Adam-Ondi-Ahman prior to third grade (once) but other than that, the only time I have actually been there was once in 2007 (after I told a close friend about a few of my dreams and she took me there because I described to her what I had been shown and since she had been there several times she knew it well and wanted me to see for myself that what I had been shown was in fact what it really looked like in reality). The only other time I went to Adam-Ondi-Ahman (in all of my years - almost 17 yrs of living in Kansas) - was right before my husband left to start his new job in Arizona. We drove and took our entire family there and were given a wonderful tour by a very kind brother who worked in the KC temple and lived near Spring Hill. I have had dreams of things happening in other parts of the country, including but not limited to Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, California, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, and what I believe to be was Montana. As part of my tent city dreams, I saw hundreds of people fleeing the east coast and coming to the Kansas City area - before heading further West to their final destination. The general area we lived in will be one of the stopping points where people will come to rest and refresh and regroup before going on the next leg of their journey. Another point will be in the Saint George area....and there are other places throughout the country that are being prepared, either by the church or by faithful members of the church who have been, are or will yet be inspired to help provide help and assistance. One thing I am not quite sure about is the timing of how it will all play out...since I have seen many things in sequential order, but not all - pieces of the puzzle are missing and others are not necessarily in order of how the actual events will take place. I do believe that my time in Arizona is temporary, however, because I was shown dreams about me and my family in the Kansas City area, prior to having dreams about us moving to Arizona, and many of those dreams have to do with future events that have not yet transpired but I know they will happen at some point in time. It is all very interesting to me and I always appreciate the knowledge, impressions and insights of others. So thank you to those of you who share. I appreciate you and am grateful for the testimonies and all that you contribute. |
