To my beloved grandchildren,
Though you are young now, there may be a day or a night when you can read and understand this letter to you. When I was very young, I used to read history books written by Laura Ingalls Wilder, but those books I had were taken from me 8 years ago. There was a man named Michael Landon who made a film that showed that Laura, the daughter of Charles Ingalls , felt compassion for the Osage tribe in Kansas and eventually, her own father had to move to Minnesota because the Osage tribe won a court battle AFTER Laura Ingall's parents allowed their children to have a party on December 25th and let them think that 'santa Claus' was in their house. Your parents or I might be able to help you study the Laura Ingalls Wilder history books someday.
Now, I read other history books. I read a letter about 2 very important men who have been known as Jeremiah and Baruch in the bible book labeled Jeremiah, chapters 36, 37 and 38. It is one of saddest stories I ever have read and some of the events happened at this time of the year, when winter had started. In the bible, the 9th month must have been cold because I saw that a king that did not like Jeremiah and did not love Yehovah was living in a 'winterhouse'. Yehovah's calender is very different and much better than calndar's that humans have developed. I believe today is the 9th month, the middle of the 20th day because according to Yehovah, the new year does not start on January 1st.
Jeremiah had an important message he wanted other people to receive, but because the message was a warning of trouble to come, an evil leader threw the written message into a fireplace. Jeremiah did not give up his duty to Yehovah, and another written message was brought forth by Jeremiah and Baruch, but once again the evil king tossed the message into a fireplace to burn it. The evil king then was very mean and did evil to Jeremiah by putting him into a prison that Jeremiah would not have survived in very long, so Yehovah let angels come to get Jeremiah out of the prison, which was a pit worse than the one Joseph was lowered into! Before this miracle happened, Jeremiah had proclaimed a FAST this month, not feasting on December 25th and January 1st. I am going to remember how Jeremiah and Baruch worked together against a leader that did not love Yehovah, and will try very hard to fast until the start of the 10th month, which is ten days from now. It is not easy for me to try to be like Jeremiah, but it is possible. I think I will try to limit what I eat very much and will eat some extra special apples that were grown my friends in Wisconsin who are named Mr. and Mrs. Janowski, because those apples are like medicine and I have been feeling sick. There have been a lot of messages I have wanted people in France and the United States to take seriously, but it seems the people who should have taken my messages seriously have tossed my messages into the garbage or into a fireplace, and not believed my reports.
The bible says that 2 witnesses can establish facts. I know I have sent a small letter, like a scroll, to your father and that my mother also has verified, by letter, the information I have passed on to your father. We, as a team, have done our duty to warn your father, and we often warn people when we are trying to LOVE people. Now, I heard a warning and the saw the warning from a letter that St. Paul , from the tribe of Benjamin, wrote to Ephesians that he never suspected would affect me and understand his letter 2000 years after he wrote it. I found out that I have been made alive, but I was once dead, being surrounded by and affected by trespasses and sins in which I walked through on the course I have been on in this world, according to the prince of the power of the air. The prince of peace is the prince who comes forth from the good soil and understand farmers, and my father and mother have been taught about farming and soils. The good prince of peace is not tossed around by the prince of the power of the air, who often works his evil in music that is sold for profit, Broadway dance shows and theatre stages filled with people who have not been taught about humility and modesty. The prince of the power of the air works with the sons who do not obey Yehovah's instructions for the tribes if YShral.. from יהוה
I, like everyone who has been abused justified, had behaved and written things about your parents and your parent's parents because I desired a very specific outcome, namely, I wanted then to be sorry for what they had done to me and I wanted them to love Yehovah. What I wrote did fulfill the desires my mind and did make me feel better for awhile, and I did not want to release my wrath and anger on those who did me no harm. A desire to protect my neighbors led me to write reports about people who had been cruel and very ungracious toward me, maybe like Laura Ingalls had written reports about her family's troubles.
I better understood Ephesians, chapter 2, verses 1-8 when I thought about Jeremiah, Baruch and what my mother had done to be a second witness against my enemies. Now, I no longer need to write about what people who did not want to be part of my family have done to me in the past, when I was surrounded by sin and felt dead because my heart ached so much. I have other friends in Canada who helped me KNOW it is time to remember that once a double witness has been established, it is Yehovah who will fight with us who love his name and do not blaspheme against him.
I want you to know I will be sending you some gifts, and I wanted to send your father some gifts but he has not yet let me know which gifts he needs, so I must decide what is best if he does not write to me. Like Baruch and Jeremiah, after I write a few times, if I get no response, I must start writing to others who will respond. Someday, I hope you will be able to write to me and to VISIT me because I have so much I want you to know about me and how I live according to Yehovah's instructions. Some of my friends call Yehovah 'Yahweh', and some call him 'Yahoowah', but I know how to write the name of the holy ONE who led Moses through the Red Sea in Hebrew, and that is most important to me. Sometimes we do not know how to pronounce a name until we hear it from the person who has that יהוה name.
I have asked your father if I should visit him in France, and he has not said yes, so I suppose something is very wrong or dangerous in France and he does not think I would be safe or welcome there, so I will be in Michigan waiting for your father to visit me here and of course, waiting for you to visit me here. Waiting is very hard sometimes, but I will think about how Jeremiah and Joseph waited for help when they were in a pit alone, and eventually Yehovah sent them people who helped them after others had intended to hurt them. When you visit me at my house, you will have to abide by the rules that Yehovah has taught me to live by. When I visit my parents or had visited my grandparents, I have been expected to follow their rules or I would be punished or expected to leave.
I hope you will like the gifts that I send you, and I even have brand new Minnesota Vikings ear warmers for Havalah that will be in a box of gifts for your family. If I am ever tempted to bring up evil that had been done to me in the past before there is a judge in my presence, I will remember what my friend told me about how people who are single need to behave differently after a divorce and then read Ephesians chapter 2, vs. 1-8 again, knowing that like Baruch and Jeremiah, I have strived with my mind and with people who do not love me long enough and now I will move forward and walk humbly with Yehovah's help. Even when you move forward, you have to remember there are people and things behind you you might not be able to change and that defense is important.
Maybe a special angel on earth will help you understand all I have written to you today. Today, a plumber is coming to remove a Moen faucet and put in a Delta faucet, which I hope works better. I still have food, clothing and shelter and a few kind people who help me to do the things I cannot do yet. Todd Rivard is an Army veteran who repairs my cars, a plumber named Mark is going to help me with a faucet and Mr. Webb and Mr. Dubay have helped me with repairs to my house. A very special young person named Logan served me a tasty pierogi meal while I celebrated the birthday of Lorraine Mielke yesterday, who has been one of my best friends. Lorraine still reads a Bible that I gave her 13 years ago when my parents had their 50th wedding anniversary! I am very glad that Lorraine didn't throw the Bible into a fireplace, because then she would have been like the evil king who hated the prophet Jeremiah.
I hope you accept my invitation to visit me in Michigan or if things go even better, maybe I will be able to move to a place where I will not have to live alone, and then really big strong angels help you get my house. Now, I can go back to writing about things to come, as the moon of the 9th month is waning and I have hockey, health, sabbath rest, weekday works, the seal of Zebulun and the foundation of Levi, something like a turquoise, to think about in the 10th month as I prepare for passover travels in the springtime again. I will be going on a mission trip, representing the spirit of Truth and sobriety, to Port Huron in a few days, where people from Winston-Salem , North Carolina will be. I hope they will learn about the difference between the tribes of Issachar and the tribe of Judah while I am there, because both of those hockey positions should be the left wing position, but Judah is on Simeon's team and Issachar is on Joseph's team..
If you are allowed to, try to learn some more about how I live by watching 'messenger of the name' on Youtube.
With hope, love of Yeshua and sincerity,
Grandma Marie
