The Well at the Living Waters Farm

09/04/2025

You've never heard of a modern-day rock altar? Watch this SHORT video about "an old pile of rocks" and you'll understand why we have built (and are dedicating this Sunday) a Rock Altar at The Well. Be blessed!

Meet Me At The Old Rock AltarHow an old pile of rocks became the foundation for revival in the upstate of SC. Trail Of Fire Week One: Seneca, South Carolina...

September 7th (12PM) is going to be a very special day at The Well! We'll be dedicating the Rock Altar, AND having a Believer's Baptism ceremony all in the same day. The Rock Altar is a structure made from rock that is used to symbolize a sacred site set aside for God for prayer, etc., and it serves as a way to remember God's powerful acts and faithfulness to His people. Water Baptism signifies our death to sin, burial of our old life, and resurrection to a new life in Christ, and it is a command in the New Testament. If you haven't been baptized, please reach out to us. We'd be honored to include you in our celebration. For more information (location, etc.) www.cometothewell.life

Good morning, world. Things are looking pretty good from the front porch of my farm in Virginia today. It’s one of those cool, late-summer mornings, and the Fall is beginning to show itself in the sky. I took my time in the presence of the One Who died for me, and I’m savoring every single bit of this New Day from the inside out. What I feel on the Inside sometimes makes its way outside, and I've been known to SHOUT "Glory!" or "Jesus!" as if the Love for my Savior is being released so that my Heart won't burst. I'm EXCITED about my God and what He's doing, and it shows in how I Live, how I Love, how I pray, and how I "shout". Long ago, I heard about how shouts from the stadium hosting the World Cup in Brazil were so intense that they measured 6 on the Richter scale from miles away. Can you imagine there being so much excitement over a soccer game that the earth shook? When I heard that, I began to imagine what it would be like if the Church got so excited about the imminent return of Jesus Christ that it tipped the Richter scale all over the world. THE MOST exciting "play" of all time is getting closer by the day, and the mere thought of that Day inspires me to make a little noise of my own. Today is just another day to most of the world, but not to me. This Day is getting my undivided attention like all the ones before it because I know that One Day soon I’ll look up to see the Son of God, and He'll be looking for me! Isn’t that the way you consider the Day that draws near, too?

It’s pretty amazing to live in a time when things like hurricanes or a solar eclipse can be predicted and all the whole world can be put on notice of their coming long before they take place. With a hurricane, we're told where we can take shelter, and with a solar eclipse, we're told to use protective eyewear because the eyes couldn't endure what it sees without them. The time of arrival for a hurricane or solar eclipse can be narrowed down with precision, and there's no question about what time of day these things will happen. The news channels buzz for weeks beforehand, and the virtual highway gets loaded up with photos, predictions, and fear-mongering. People stock up on food and water and double-check generators before a hurricane, and some people have block parties to witness a solar eclipse. The "wows" over something like a solar eclipse on a clear night can be heard from one corner of the world to the next by way of the virtual highway, and in some places, maybe the excitement even tips the Richter scale. It's amazing to see the human reaction to the Hand of God, even when it doesn't acknowledge who He is at all. But One Day, He will show up out of "nowhere" in the blink of an eye, and despite all the warnings to Prepare for that Day, many people will be caught off guard, unprepared, and left "in the dust" all the same. Warning them to Prepare is what keeps people like me Busy in the Journey of Faith. Like a watchman on a hill, I KNOW what's coming, and because we don't know the day or the hour, being Prepared every minute of every day will be the Key to Victory.

One day, in the not-so-distant future, it won’t just be nature rattled by the changes it sees in the sky; the entire world will be too when the Son of God shows up without any warning at all. No meteorologist or astronomer will be able to predict the day or the hour, and the world will not be put on notice by the local news. No priest, pastor, or one who claims to know the future will be able to predict the time of His coming - even the Son of God doesn't know that - He’ll just show up without warning at all. The Son of God won’t be showing up to entertain the world with His Presence, and no special eyewear will shield the world from Him OR help them see Him more clearly. The world will be watching when He shows up to gather His people, and in the blink of an eye, people like me will cease to exist on this earth at all. At that very moment, there will be planes without pilots, cars without drivers, classrooms without teachers, and families without loved ones. No amount of shouting and screaming that takes place when a good play is made in a sports arena can hold a candle to what the world will sound like when the Son of God shows up to gather His Own. Like a father ringing the dinner bell to call his children home, the Son of God will sound a Trumpet that will make the Richter scale feel like child's play to call His Children Home to be with Him forever, and no amount of doubting in the world will change the fact that this Day will come without warning. All the doubters and all the mockers will have something in common eventually...every single one of them will bow to their knees in His presence and declare that He is Lord one day.

I’ll be ready when the greatest “solar” miracle in the history of the world takes place, and I’ll be looking toward the Heavens in anticipation of the Son of God coming back for ME. We may not know the day or the hour of His coming, but we’ve been told about a few things that needed to happen before He’s ready to come back, and they’ve all taken place at record speed. I'm Excited about His Coming because I'm Ready. Sadly, lots of people won't be so excited when they realize that they missed out on Preparing for the Day, and it will be too late for them to be a part of that Miracle. I'm ready and waiting...how about you? Will you be prepared to see the Son of God with no warning at all? If you’re not sure, reach out to me. I’m happy to introduce you to Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and I’ll help you find your way to the Truth that will set you Free and lead you Home. Before you know it, you'll be a lot more excited about the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ than you ever could be over something like a soccer game or a solar eclipse, and you'll be doing your Part to tip the Richter scale right along with other people like me!

Are you ready?

AND THE GREATEST OF THESE IS LOVE

Good morning, world. Things are looking pretty good from the front porch of my farm in Virginia today. It's a cool and clear day in Virginia, and I spent a long time reading my Instruction Manual on the porch this morning. I lingered with the Master of my Life, and I clung to His Word as if they were both "new" to me. This morning, I couldn't let go of one very small chapter with a very big Message of Love. Even though I've read it before, the Compassionate message overwhelmed me... so I read it over and over again today. A simple letter was written from a prison cell by someone who once would have killed someone like me over my Faith in Jesus Christ. But God got ahold of that guy and He changed his Heart the same way He changed mine. He went from persecuting people like me to Loving people like me in ways that can only be understood by Understanding the Heart and Nature of the Living God. One simple letter filled with Love and I'm flying high to put into Action what I learned this morning from the front porch. Isn't that just like God?

If there's one thing that can cause me to lose my patience, it's hearing people of Faith judging other people for where they are (or aren't) in Life. It doesn't matter if it's true or not true - if it's a big offense or a little one - we were all Created by the Hand of the Living God and He loves us ALL the same. That's a tough pill for arrogant Christians to swallow. The arrogant ones want to pass judgment, and they prefer to spread their own version of "truth" about someone they may or may not have ever even met. Somehow, they've convinced themselves that they are one of God's "filters" here on earth to determine who is worthy of Him and who isn't. They're told NOT to cast stones...but they do it anyway. They're told NOT to judge... but they do it anyway. They claim to believe that Christ died for ALL of us but they Live (and judge) as if they've "earned" the Grace of God. I'll bet if I handed one of the arrogant ones a letter from a prisoner - a man who was once so cruel to Christians - a man who perhaps had persecuted a friend or family member - a man who shared His Faith from behind bars - they'd probably mock him, spit on the ground, and refuse to read his letter at all. But that's not the way God sees the sinner. It's man who creates "categories" of sin, and it's man who quickly judges based on how "bad" it is. BUT when it comes to Jesus...HE DIED FOR ALL...a (not so) minor detail the arrogant ones forget.

There are plenty of people of Faith who claim to "love everybody," but their actions tell an entirely different story. You can't "love everybody" and pass your own judgment on their lives. You can't "love everybody" and shun them because of their wrongs. You can't "love everybody" if you're glad when people get what they deserve in your eyes. You can't "love everybody" and scurry off to the other side of the street to avoid them. You can't "love everybody" if you have no compassion for them. You can't "love everybody" if you have the means to help but refuse to because of where they are in life. In fact, the Bible says, "If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?" Hmm..." How can the love of God be in that person?" That question should keep lots of people professed Christians awake at night...but somehow it doesn't faze them at all.
The One I follow hung out with some pretty "low" people, and He loved them enough to die for them the same as He did me. If you REALLY want to be a Follower of His, being willing to Love ALL is at the top of the Qualification List. "The greatest of these is love."

I'm an imperfect woman living an imperfect life but it is my desire to LOVE the way Christ tells me to love, and I'll never take for granted the Gift that was given to me without judgment. He "saved a wretch like me" when I didn't deserve it, and He loved me through it all. He met me where I was, and He saw what was possible for me in the Journey of Faith and Ministry. I want to meet people where they are, too, no matter what their offenses look like or where they are or aren't in life, because I remember where I was too, before Christ got a hold of my Heart. I want to extend Compassion and Love the same way Paul the prisoner did so long ago.

Thank you, God. Thank you, Paul...a prisoner for Jesus Christ.

Good morning, world. Things are looking pretty good from the front porch of my farm in Virginia today. I met with the One who Breathed Life into this new day, and everything about it is a Reflection of His Hand. The birds sound like they're celebrating the morning, the squirrels look like they're celebrating a feast, and my Heart is celebrating another Day to Serve. I don't know exactly what He has Planned for me today, but I do know that after my Time with Him, I'm ready for whatever it is. As I looked out at the shadows on the field, it made me think about how the Light always casts a shadow on the things in its path, but the Light has no shadow of its own. Darkness can't exist when there is Light. No doubt I'll encounter some dark things today because the world is filled with darkness, but when I do, my Light will Shine so bright that I'll cast a few shadows of my own, and darkness will flee from me...every time. Isn't that the way you "fight the good fight" too?
,
It's not easy to encounter the "darkness" sometimes but that darkness can't exist with my Light. Darkness is darkness, but it comes in all kinds of shapes and sizes, and I could be easily fooled if I didn't know the Light so well. Sometimes the darkness shows itself boldly, and it's easy to spot when it's nearby, and sometimes the darkness is so subtle that I could get deceived if that were possible. Sometimes the darkness masquerades as Light, and it could win an Academy Award for its effort to fool...but when you Know the Light so well, it's not possible to be fooled by darkness. Sometimes the darkness shows up in the form of dissension, and sometimes it shows up with the sweetest looking lure - the kind that Adam and Eve refused to Resist. The only way to walk through this dark world without being overtaken by the darkness is to shine the Light so bright that the darkness disappears and not even a shadow is left in its place. This is the Key to battling the war that takes place "in the heavenly realms."

It's sad to see so many people attempting to battle the darkness with their words when there's a much Bigger way to Battle and only One Way to win. I'm pretty sure that darkness just laughs when it sees us trying to use our own words and our own intellect to win the War that can ONLY be won by the Spreading of the Light. When it's time for words, ONLY the Words that were breathed by Him have any Power at all, and absolutely none of the others will repel the dark or produce Good fruit. But time and again people of Faith spit out insults and dim the Light instead of "spitting" out love and turning up the Light of Faith...the kind of Light that makes the darkness flee. I know that every time I say the name of Jesus, I can cause every demon in Hell to shudder, and I say it often each day. It might be a really dark world we live in, but the Light of the World will always outshine the darkness IF...and ONLY IF...we turn up the Light of our Faith and we Fight the darkness with the only thing it can't withstand. This is the Key to willing the war.

Darkness nipped at my heels for so many years of my life, that is UNTIL I learned about the Light. One day, I invited the Light in, and I've never been the same again. My Light outshone the darkness that so desperately wanted to thwart the Plans God had for me...but darkness has no power in the Light. Darkness can no longer have power OR Victory over me because I belong to the Light! Today, I make the liar from Hell sorry that he ever messed with me as I Shed the Light of Jesus Christ on the dark world as much as I possibly can. This is the Key to Freedom.

I'm ready for this new day, and although I NEVER look forward to encountering the darkness here and there, I Know how to fend it off and s***f it out. Darkness, aka the Devil, has no power over me because I know the Light, aka Jesus Christ, so well. It could be that Brightest Lights (the biggest risk) deal with the darkness a little more than all the others...I'm not sure. But I DO know that the darkness would LOVE to dim my Light IF THAT WERE POSSIBLE, and I guess I can't blame "it" for trying to take me down when I stand SO boldly for the Light.

Yes, it's a battle...but I'll always be Victorious because I focus a whole lot more on the Light than I do on shadows of darkness...and THAT'S the source of my Strength in this dark world.

How about you?

Great is thy faithfulness, O God, my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with thee.
Thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail not;
As thou hast been, thou forever wilt be.

Have you seen our Prayer (aka War) Room? This was the first to be built out at the barn. I guess you can say we have our priorities straight :-) NO, we don't have horseshoes hanging on the door because we believe in "luck" - we hung every one of the horseshoes we found in the barn to honor the horses that were here before us. Our prayer room is open 24/7 for whoever needs to pray OR to be prayed for. Be warned: we experience the supernatural power of God here, and WE DO SEE miracles. Just sayin'.

Good morning, world. Things are looking pretty good from the front porch of my farm in Virginia today. I met with the One who places the Boundary Lines of Protection over my Life, and I spent a long time giving thanks. There’s no end to the things that could have the Potential to harm me and this old farm, but “the boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places” and He’s “made my lot secure.” As I met with the Master this morning and I pondered all that is going on in my life and the lives of others I love, I thanked Him for those boundary lines of Protection over us day after day and year after year. I know that outside of myself and my own behavior, there isn't much that I can do about most of the things that have the potential to "threaten" me, so I turn to my Protector for it all. Isn't that the way it's supposed to be in this Journey of Faith?

I could own an arsenal of fi****ms, and I could build a wall around this old farm that I love so much, but I know that my real Protection comes from the Hand of God as He makes sure that the boundary lines fall on me in pleasant places. I could have every door locked and every window nailed shut. I could install hurricane shutters on every one of the 33 windows. I could have the most advanced alarm system known to mankind that would alert me to every threat outside - but I know my real Protection comes from the Hand of God as He makes sure to have the boundary lines fall upon me in pleasant places. I could refuse to allow guests into the house for fear of them robbing me or spreading their germs. I could live a life that is built around privacy and paranoia, but I know I don't have to keep the world away from me to be safe because He will make the boundary lines for me in pleasant places every single time. More than any of these steps that I could take to "protect" myself and this beautiful old farm, the Biggest Step I take is to have a Belief in the Power of my God and the Assurance that He's in control of it all. This is the secret to Peace in the midst of any storm in Life.

When I’m asked to pray over the Life of another, one of the things at the top of my list to pray for…no matter what’s going on…is for God’s boundary lines of Protection over them. The kind of boundary lines that only He can draw and the kind of boundary lines that bring Peace that surpasses all understanding, even when it doesn't make sense. I pray against our adversary, and I call upon the Name of Jesus Christ to thwart any plans to torment or destroy that he might have up his evil sleeve. I pray over the boundary lines of the Heart and mind so that no fiery darts from the enemy can tempt them into destruction, and I pray boundary lines around them to discourage them from listening to the world instead of the Master. I pray they find comfort in knowing that He “commands His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.” Yes, when I pray on behalf of someone else, it’s serious Business…and it all begins with Boundary Lines.

I'm facing this day with the kind of Love that defies words for my Protector, and I have a Heart overflowing with gratitude for the boundary lines that have fallen upon me in pleasant places day after day and year after year, ALL because of Him. He has made my lot secure!

How about you?

Our Rock Altar is complete!!! Next stop: the dedication. Watch for details!

HISTORY: I heard about revival breaking out at a rock altar in the woods during WWII at a time when many of the men from a small town were at war. The towns people would make their way to the woods and throw a rock on the altar which symbolized the burdens they were carrying for their loved ones. So, they cast them at the foot of the cross where all our burdens belong! The Lord spoke to my heart to build a rock altar at The Well and here it is.

Many thanks to Mark Novak for building the cross - to my amazing husband for hauling the rocks from around the farm and to my son, Jared, for helping him install the cross. And, of course, to my Mighty God who has big plans for us all.
