Shhhh it is a Secret

[James Hutchins]

Last night I was playing cards (not for money, but for souls) with the Church Elders and Pastor Ezekiel. Well, as a few too many Glenfiddich, I heard that our very own Senior Pastor is going to pop the question to Daisy Mae! He was droning on and on about how she is a fine woman, most of the Platinum women were, God fearing and pure. His concern (what a thoughtful man) was if he brings a lady to his humble estate, what would he do with all the house boys? He can't just toss them into the street like a used flat screen TV box. Too expensive to pack them up and ship back to what ever hellhole he drug them from.
Anyhow, this is a big secret so do not tell anyone.

Re: Shhhh it is a Secret

I'm certain that nothing younger than 50 or 60 years from Scotland would have gotten the thumbs up, after all Jesus would be sharing the experience and He produced the best stuff, as recorded by John

John 2:9d-11a ..the governor of the feast called the bridegroom and saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee

obviously Napoleonic tinctures would be off the menu, contaminated by papism and idols. I've never seen an idol in Scotland. Daisy will be so excited. This is not a suggestion but a question: perhaps she would like to redeploy the personnel you mentioned? It would be something (albeit slight) for her to take on now that she'd have so little of the day-to-day concerns on her mind. My prayers are with Pastor in this and as always He will make the right decision.

Wonderful news about the impending nuptials, Brother James. And so compassionate of Zeke to be thinking of his houseboys at the same time. Far be of it of me to make any suggestions, but if I could, I wonder if Brother Larry could move 2 or 3 of the houseboys into his New York apartment. It's something which might be right up his alley.

It's pretty good, isn't it!

Re: Shhhh it is a Secret

That's very interesting, Brother Hutchins. Oddly, many of the Ladies of Landover thought that Pastor Zeke had "popped the question" some years ago. It's certainly the impression Sister Daisy Mae gave us. In fact, I thought she had been his FTF (full-time-fiancée) for 10 or even 15 years. It just goes to show how little we women know of these matters!

Splendid news, though. Proverbs 19:14 - House and riches are the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife is from the LORD.

Well, being our beloved Pastor is rapidly approaching 30 years old, it is time for him to produce progeny. I know he'd rather spread himself for all of God's children.Daisy is not a child any longer as well.
I know Pastor Flint made the Purity Promise(tm) to Miss Daisy Mae, forsaking all other females many, many many years ago. Multiple times, the two had a date set but world events forced Ezekiel to have to postpone his own happiness over the needs of his flock and the world.

Yes sir.
Proverbs 16:28
A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends

After some deep soul searching and praying to Jesus not to smite me for speaking, I'd like to apologize for spreading an unfounded rumor. Apparently, I did not see Pastor Ezekiel, I was not playing cards with him and I did not see him imbibing.
Proverbs 21:23
Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.

I will be out of state Monday morning and I will not be reachable on the Vineyard.
Deuteronomy 13:14
Then shalt thou enquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be truth, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought among you;

Re: Shhhh it is a Secret

Well, I just arrived and I am sitting in one of the outer anterooms. One of those gook house boys took my duster and boots and gave me a bathrobe and disposable slippers to put on. I really hate them taking down to me "you sit, you stay, you quiet, you wait'. If LBJ had not interfered, I'd of blasted every single slant straight back to Hell in Nam. I brought a token gift, a Oyster Perpetual.

Re: Shhhh it is a Secret

I am still waiting.


He will call me when it is my time to be called.



Though it is odd all the doors are stuck and no one comes when I knock. That dome thing on the gold leafed ceiling with the blinking red light is weird too. It is a bit chilly, sitting on the wood bench having had my clothes taken and being left just wearing the robe in the tiled, bare room. I do not think there is any heat and it is drafty.

Yes, that can be irritating. It's as though they're talking to a dog. I suppose they learn it from the way Pastor talks to them and don't understand that it's not appropriate?

Thank you for your kind words. I know these people have a limited ability top communicate, spending most of their lives grunting and barking like dogs. I have often wondered how they can tell the difference between friend, foe or dinner.


Anyhow, I am still here. I am a bit thirsty and uncomfortable. I am shivering a bit but that seems to be slowing some as the desire for sleep gets stronger. I seem to of dozed off a few times and each time, miraculously as I did, one of these little gooks screamed at me (I have no idea where they manifested from or how, just as I started to slump over) saying "you no time to sleep, you to wait alive'. When I asked how much longer all I heard was 'ehh, no for you..."
I know everything is for good reason. I am unable to plug in my JesPhone in as there are no outlets here. The sunlight under the crack of the door is going and there are no lights on in the room.
It is times like this that a man reflects on things. Though to be honest, my mind seems to be drifting....

Re: Shhhh it is a Secret

Still here.



No one came in to see me since my last posting. It rained last night and water came in the room. I soaked it up with my socks then squeezed them out in to my mouth to drink it. I knock on the doors and no one comes. I know God will hear me. I can hear the wind howling.

Re: Shhhh it is a Secret

Oh dear. I hope you are finding 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 a comfort?
Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

Would you like me to call Sister Daisy Mae? I don't like to bother Pastor Zeke about this.

No, I do not want to cause a fuss. I thought I heard some voices and foot steps a little while ago. I am sure the Pastor will summon me soon. I really have to go to the bathroom. I should of gone before I arrived. It is funny how a day drags on for what seems like forever when you are just sitting. Probably the longest Monday of my life.

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Probably because it's already Tuesday.

Are you absolutely sure Pastor Zeke said the meeting was going to be yesterday? Maybe he meant some other Monday?
