Daily Journal Continued March 27,1998 William Thomas Thompson Daniel4-12"The leaves thereof were fair,and the fruit...much" Now that I am home again arriving about one A.M.last night,I can get back to the routine. I drove 450 miles after 5pm yesterday,it takes a real man to do this I believe. My old car ran like new. I stopped by the Jacksonville farmers market and found stawberries at the close of the day a little ripe and loaded my car with four cartons that I had to put into the cooler after arriving home. I drove some to my brother's house this morning crossing over piney mountain as a short cut so he could give some to my Mother at lunch to take home and enjoy. Strawberries will be in season here next month. As I drove across the mountain,I had wonderful site suddenly of spiritual enlightenment that I want to write about, but first I want to clarify from yesterdays journal as saying,I trust God and was never addicted to anything,I do mean also that because of my trust in God and deep conviction that many people do not understand,I intend to keep the Fort free of the Devil's vices as a mission church nonprofit educational art and health institute,I will not compromise the principal for which I am com- mitted. So stand back and see God work it out. Watch God's plan work by faith to keep it clean and pure. Most people do not see anything but money in life and this is trouble. I feel very much intimidated so far from many down there like I cannot move. If people do not see the purpose,then they have no place there. I refuse to let anyone dominate the place or threaten it from being a ministry for God first and foremost as a Christian art drivein. If and when we do other things like grow herbs,we must do it our self with what little volunteer help we may have. We must work with people to do this by faith. The people must first understand total faith and not interested in profit as I am not interested in profit at all. The purpose is all that is important and that in terms of priority. The message of Christian art first,2-The mission of free food and clothes. 3-The worship of God as a new Testament Church, 4-Farm and animals,5-A nature walk to exercise and study the art,6-A camp site and 7-Tree of life health food. Art of the New Millennium,art is first as prophecy being fulfill- ed. When I am there seeing all that need to be done,I tend to get discouraged.but when I return home,I get new vision for this Old Fort place great art project because of its location being in the mainstream tourist traffic and the approaching New Millennium. We can do all these things and more if everyone will contribute to the project some time or work or money. Right now when I say we,I mean God and me. He can do all things. I want to plant flowers on the burm(Mount of dirt out front)its an overground septic tank 4 feet high or less and 20 feet long. Herbs are available from the Maggies farm West off highway16 afew miles wholesale herb plants. "and in it was meat for all;the beast of the field has shadow.." I remembered a family here with 6 children that may need that C vitamin near the same mountain,so I took them some of the straw- berries and drove over the same mountain to see if my vision would replay,but it did not. I must find away to record it all at the time it is happening so that I may get it into type. Dear Lord,make me faithful to the visions I see. May I trust only in Thee. May I get rid of me and serve Thee with all my life energy.
