I don't know how I missed that, but I did miss the WHOLE page.



Glad to hear from you Eldaah! It sounds like things are progressing along.

Uhoh, missing whole pages are you?

 

[cristianna]

Good Morning


Uhoh, missing whole pages are you?

Yep, I sure did. It makes me wonder if I've missed anything else too.

Weird things have been happenly lately. I had emails, and WHOLE email folders disappear, I couldn't get CF to load hardly at all over the weekend and a few times this week, etc.

I know our ISP is doing some maintenance work on things, so maybe that's what it's all about.

Good afternoon everybody! ​

[Eldaah]

Good to see ya back.
And you have my sympathy, any plans to go broadband again?

Nope, unfortunately, I don't think we can get high-speed internet here.

I really missed being able to check in on you all. I'm gonna try to catch up on what I missed now.

 

[Eldaah]

Okay!

I have good news to report. I did call Bro. Calvin this morning; I waited until about 10 a.m. because he's not a morning person, lol.

I apologized sincerely and he accepted my apology graciously. I'll be meeting him there at the shelter to help with the class next Monday.

Also, my heart, which was very burdened down with sin yesterday (I sinned against my brother) is light and free today

There are more details to this story....but perhaps I will write it down in my blog someday.

God bless you all! I am never too old to learn something new everyday. Jesus has fresh manna for us daily.

I love this WWJD club!

I'm glad that it all worked out well. PTL! May God bless you continually.

Unfortunately, I have to go now. I got through a few pages, but my sister needs on now. God bless you all! ttyl.

Eldaah

If almost 3 million people had never heard the Gospel, would you say that the church had neglected them? That is what has happened to the 510 tribes of American Indians living in the United States alone. The majority of churches in this country have and still are neglecting the indigenous peoples. Why is that? Are these people unworthy of attention? Are their lost souls less significant than the souls of other peoples?

Spiritwinds, my heart bleeds as I read your post. It is not right for lost people to be ignored. Jesus wants us to be His hands and feet and reach out to the lost, whether they be indians, chinese, or your average white yuppie. Or the homeless. People of all ages and all sizes and all colors need Jesus and need eternal salvation, forgiveness, and grace.

Lord, touch our hearts and move us to repentance for forgetting people groups and leaving many to not hear of Jesus' love for them.

You care about each individual, Lord. Inspire us to love and move in Your Character! To do what You would do.

I pray this prayer sincerely in Jesus name, Amen.

Thank you for the offer. Last night there were some emails circulating around our neighborhood about everyone experiencing problems. Our local ISP has been notified, so hopefully it really is an issue on their end.

Nope, unfortunately, I don't think we can get high-speed internet here.

I really missed being able to check in on you all. I'm gonna try to catch up on what I missed now.

We missed seeing you around too! I know how frustrating it is on dial up. I think it was only last year we were able to get highspeed where we are.

SpiritWinds... that is dreadful. I was not even aware of this information. What do you think can be done?





Not that long ago my husband tossed me a magazine with it opened up to a section featuring a restaurant where we previously lived. He asked, "Don't you know the owners of this restaurant?". Of course, I was thinking-- what are you talking about; I have no idea who owns that restaurant. I read the featured article (about their abundant success, community outreach, etc) and the couple that own the restaurant, well-- the wife, was a great friend of mine from school!

Sadly we lost touch with each other. When all of us graduated I already had one child. So everyone went off to college while I stayed behind. God is leading me to get back in contact with her; therefore, I bought an *interesting* card. I really don't remember how the company classified it. It's not an "across the miles", or "miss you" or "friendship" or "congrats"... it's oddly a combination of all the above! How great is that???? So I'm going to write her today and get the card out in the mail. ​

Yes, we are to be the hands and feet of Jesus, but so many believers are not. And that is most unfortunate. American Indians over these many years have been so stereotyped, demonized, and romanticized that the perception of these peoples is now so terribly distorted. And because the culture and spirituality of the American Indian has been exploited and greatly misunderstood for so long, they are still disrespected, oppressed and treated like social outcasts.

American Indians are not a relic of the past. American Indians are not mascots, squaws, redskins, savages or 'wild' Indians. We are people, and it is time that we are treated as such. And it is time for the majority of churches and (white) Christians to start valueing our souls just as they value the souls of other peoples.

I have shared an article in my blog entitled When Going to Church is Sin. I would like for each of you to read it, so that you may better understand the struggles of American Indians within the Church.
