Counselors’ Corner
May is here, and with it the last few weeks of homeschooling. I’m finishing up Science and History with Selah, but it looks like we will be doing Grammar through the summer. I hate Grammar! Oh well! We’ll eventually get it all done. I love homeschooling for the most part, and the kids learn so quickly. I have to brag a little, cause my kids are really smart! I’m so proud of them all! And I’m about to get a new daughter-in-law, Amanda, who is Tommy’s fiancĂ©! I really like her, too. She’s a good kid! I needed one more! And just in time for Mother’s Day! Well to all you other Mother’s out there, have a very happy Mother’s Day! It’s a good time to remember our awesome responsibility that God has given us, and pray for all our children, even those who may have strayed from the fold. God’s word says the angels rejoice over that one little lost lamb more than the ninety-nine who didn’t stray! I’m with them on that one all the way! I trust that God will bring those who’ve strayed back to the fold someday, and I’ll be jumping up and down and shoutin’ with the angels when it happens!
I have something else to rejoice over right now, though. My oldest brother, who I have been estranged from since my father’s death, told me he loves me recently!!! I’m not sure that we’ll ever agree on what was done at Daddy’s death, but I know I love him and he loves me, so I believe there has been forgiveness where it was due. This is an answer to prayer, which I’ve been seeking since Daddy died two years ago. God is awesome! I have one other brother, who is still not speaking to me, but I trust he will eventually come around as well. I have asked forgiveness when daddy was in the hospital, but so far, he has not extended that grace. When they pulled daddy’s food, water, and antibiotics, I was furious and told them they’d burn in hell. I wish I’d never had said those words, but I did out of anger. I still believe it’s wrong to take anyone’s food and water, especially when they’re dying, but I know that they did what they believed was right at the time. I know that they did it out of love. Please pray with me that there will be family reconciliation and forgiveness in this matter.
Well my garden is doing pretty good, though I’m having some problems with cut worms. I’ve put plant collars around most everything, but they still seem to be getting one or two plants every now and then. I just hope to minimize the damage. My asparagus is doing pretty good, but I think I need to dig it and divide it after the harvest is over. My greens are doing very well for the most part and we’ve gotten several serving of turnips and other greens so far. My corn is up to about a foot high, so maybe we might get some this year, but we’ll see. I tried it a couple of years ago and a storm killed it all. I have cabbage growing for the first time and broccoli and cauliflower. It’s small, but still growing. Tomato plants are growing well and cucumber are just about big enough to start climbing the fence. My baby lettuces are finally getting big enough to eat a few in salads now. I’ve got some Egyptain tree onions that won’t die no matter what you do to them, and they’re making lots of baby onions to plant. These are great green onions as the bulbs don’t get very big. Some of my cantaloupes are coming up now, finally, but still no eggplant. The seeds just don’t seem to be germinating.
I just read something in Selah’s history book today that I think I’ll try. It said that the people out west plant their seeds deeper than we do here, so the seeds will germinate better and the plant roots will get established without drying out so quickly. Since it’s been so hot lately, I think I’ll try to plant a little deeper next time and see if that makes a difference. Overall I think my garden is a success this year, and I have learned a lot from the research and study I’ve done. I do hope all of you out there will consider planting a small garden and don’t forget to save seed for the year to come. With the food seed of the world mainly being controlled by one company, I believe it may be a life or death situation for us all. In any case, it’s better to be safe than sorry. So I’m digging in and getting my hands dirty a little!
I have also been fervently working on a new website for my Go Fish Christian Books. I’ve had a little trouble and had to start over twice but it’s now online and I would really appreciate any purchases so I can see if everything works right. Please take a look at it. The categories are located at the bottom right of the page and featured books are on the bottom left. I have no other income at this time so please help me out if you can. My electricity is days away from being cut off (May 5). Please pray that this is successful. Our livelyhood depends on it. I have no other options at this time as I still have not found employment. Please forward this link to any and all who may be interested, as well. Please let me know if you have any problems with the website. God bless to all and go fish for Jesus!

Notes and Prayer Requests
• Several people that I have met as of late have had to leave their husbands because they found out their husbands were molesting their children. This is in epidemic proportions. Please pray for these unnamed families. And pray that I can minister to these broken hearted ladies.
• I am a Christian Counselor and would be willing to provide services to those in need. I have a master’s degree in Psychological Counseling and am an ordained Minister as well. Please pray that I may be useful to God’s kingdom. I can also mow yards, clean houses or anything else that needs doing. I charge $50 for a yard or 3 BR house. You provide the equipment.
• I have published all of my paraphrases on the Triond website. The links are listed below in several Daily Bible Reading Plans, if anyone wants to check them out. I have now published all of the New Testament, the Proverbs, and the Psalms online. You can see all of my writings by going to my main Triond link at https://www.triond.com/users/Mama+Heartfilled
• I would appreciate if you’d let me know of grammar, punctuation, and other mistakes I may have made. My goal is to make the paraphrase as simple and clear as possible. I know they still need much work, as they are drafts of a work in progress. I don’t know of any other Bible that uses the Name of Yahweh (I am in Hebrew), so I have worked hard to get it right. Please pray that God helps me in this work, and let me know of any mistakes you find. Thank all of you who are praying for me on this.
Daily Bible Reading Plans for the New Word, The Old Sayings, and The Old Hymns
The New Word, The Old Sayings and The Old Hymns is a unique feminist approach to a gender-neutral paraphrase of the Holy Bible, which uses the true name of Yahweh God and of Yeshua, the Christ, rather than the traditional man made form of Jehovah. I attempted this several year project out of a strong desire to make known the true name of Yahweh God and to help complete the great commission of Jesus Christ. It is the first Bible to my knowledge that uses the Name of God in its proper form, which had fallen out of use because of the Hebraic tradition to not say it at all by replacing it with Lord (Adoni) or God (Elohim), for fear of using it in vain. Yahweh, in the Hebrew, simply means I AM. Yahweh God is the great I AM!
This paraphrase is a working draft, and these are the published excerpts in the completed series. This version is particularly intended to reach an audience on the internet, that may not just go pick up a Bible and read it. I would like to encourage Christians and non-Christians alike to read through them using one of the suggested reading plans below and comment on them, whether you have a critique, editing correction, or praise. I am particularly looking for clarity of ideas, and simplicity for a younger or less educated audiences, which may have trouble reading and understanding some of the other more traditional versions. Archaic language, has been replaced by more modern readings of the ideas presented in the KJV. If you find a section that is still somewhat difficult to read, or understand, please let me know your thoughts on it. I would like to make all the corrections necessary before attempting further publication and dissemination. I am asking for the Triond community and other readers to help me find any significant errors, and check for readability.
Sincerely Yours,
Sis. Kimberly M. Hartfield
