When it seems as though everything around you is about to come tumbling down, and there seems to be no hope of ever finding your way out of your troubling situations, take heart and remember that the Lord Jesus Christ, your Savior, has travelled these very same paths with you, ensuring that whenever you are faced with challenges that are too powerful to bear, that He indeed has been there with you, helping you, keeping you safe, and above all, ironing out your problems as you go.

There are so many trials and tribulations one must face in this life, and if we cannot make heads or tails of them, we must surely know that our Lord Jesus is on our case for us, handling all our affairs in a way that only He can, without any adverse reactions or negative effects taking hold. The LORD longs to be gracious to you, therefore He will rise up to show you compassion. (Isaiah 30:18)

And if you think that He can never get to the bottom of your problems, then think again because the Lord your God never slumbers nor sleeps (Psalm 121:4) and is on the job 24 hours a day! And just when you think that you cannot possibly go on, this dear ones, is when you'll get your miracle. Right at the very last moment! God is so good. He is never late and is never slack concerning His promises. (2 Peter 3:9) Instead, He is a loving God who is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should fall or perish but that all should come out of the darkness and into the light...

Psalm 30:5

"For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for life;
Weeping may endure for a night,
But joy comes in the morning."

Glory to God for these words, Amen.

I pray that these words take hold in your hearts and that you may receive all the goodness that the Lord your God has got prepared for you in His Kingdom. God bless...

love

Greetings Shep. My Grandfather Harry Thompson; was from Australia.


Being in Christ;You are a complete and total individual. There has never been, and never will be, A person just like you; When you received Jesus as Lord; God brought you into existence; by His creative power; You were born of the Spirit of God; A seed was sown in your heart ; the incorruptible seed of God's Word ; and you were placed in Christ Jesus.

　
You need to know; and understand; the reality of being in Christ; It is an outstanding revelation; from God's Word that will affect your thinking; your believing; your actions; and your speech;
You were in the world without God; But now in Christ Jesus; you who once were so far away; through ; by; or in the blood of Christ have been brought near;　For He is; Himself; our peace; our bond of unity and harmony;
He has made us both; Jew and Gentile; one body; and has broken down; destroyed; abolished; the hostile dividing wall between us. You were utterly; estranged and outlawed;from all part in Him; and strangers with no share in the sacred compacts of the Messianic promise; with no knowledge of; or right in God’s agreements; His covenants; And you had no hope; no promise; you were in the world without God; 　But now in Christ Jesus; You are engrafted in; Respectfully;Parsonsmom.

WE NEED TO GET REAL

"Struggling, no not me,
Everything is just great."
We try not to let others see,
That which is our real state.

They might see us as lesser Christians,
If we don't seem in all things victorious,
So we hide in a place that is fictitious,
Not admitting to others that we have strains.

People ask "How is your ministry going,"
"Fine" we answer not admitting that right now it's hard,
People ask "How are you?"
Again so often we say "Fine"yet we are in pain.

We were never promised an easy road,
We were not promised that any level of ministry is easy,
Yet the Lord will guide us down the right road,
And with His help we can get through victoriously.

We need to partner with one another in prayer,
None of our brothers and sisters should feel despair,
It's only when we start to get real,
That they can know that they are not alone in how they feel.

For maybe right now all is well and we have no problems,
A few weeks, months or years back we felt a little like they do,
For we are not invincible, we are much like them,
And they need to really know that is so.

But God takes us through the other end and strengthens us,
The Holy Spirit is the one who will empower them and us,
So let us instead bear witness and testimony,
To how the Lord has helped us through, by sharing our story.

I felt a little discouraged, recuperating from minor surgery,
Raymond was ill and much of what was planned for our outreach was out,
And I must admit I went on a little pity party,
Asking the Lord "What's all this about?"

But sometimes he just wants us to rest in Him,
And realize that without Him we can do nothing,
Then He draws us closer into his arms,
And we know with certainty true assurance.

All things are under His control,
Life may at times take it's toll,
Christians aren't immune from difficulties,
But the Lord who loves us, sustains us.

Now I know the power of His healing touch,
And I remember the Lord for me suffered much,
Because He lives I can face tomorrow,
Knowing the best is yet to come tomorrow.

I will walk by faith and not by sight,
And at the end of my days I will have won the great fight,
Hopefully and prayerfully I will have encouraged others,
And also be a blessing to all my neighbours.

So maybe if we share our difficulties and frustrations,
People won't think of us as lesser Christians,
But instead they will know how to pray for us,
And bring us before the throne room of Jesus.

LET'S GET REAL.

Has any one heard from Shep lately? It's been a couple of months and I'm concerned about her. You might say a prayer for her if you think about it.

Has anyone pm'd her?

Yes I have, and no answer.

I know she has a blog and partners with someone who might know what's happening. I'm pretty concerned.

God is eternal and endless love. We should share this with other people

[FONT='Calibri','sans-serif'][/FONT][FONT='Calibri','sans-serif']I am a Christian since birth .
My parents are very close to the church and we have our own little ministry .

I think learning prophecies is very important especially if you are taking up religion class, as i am now . I should know because I am currently specializing in this site.
Thank you so much for this site. Propheciesfordummies.com , that really helped me understand it all , aside of course the Bible.

For the last nine months. I don't think it's a good thing.

It has been awhile since you were here; Are you doing well. thank you for a reply. I'm not very popular; but we have come to a time we can't play with God's Word any longer; He is here; this is what I posted on another area,

God has your answers.
God has important things for you; Believers; But most are to busy with things to pay attention; He has your ans. but He needs your attention; you can't here what He says unless you read Hid word; and spend time with Him; before you can have faith; you must really know God; His character; His Word; His faithfulness; His unchangeableness; His love; for faith is centered in the person; Faith is believing His word means what it says; and says what it means; God answering; God provideing; God is healing; Remember that Job was when he prayed for his friends.
we have not been given A measure of faith; but we have been give The measure of faith; we have not been given the spirit of fear; but of Power; of Love; and of a sound mind; He and His Word are one; you must get in line with His word; in order to recieve His instructions; for faith is centered in the person; not the things we desire; Faith is believing thats Gods hears; and answers; When you pray; believe you recieve; We have not been given A measure of faith; but we have been given; THE Measure of faith with out limit in Him. God is providing; God is healing; We have not been given a spirit of fear; but of power; Love and a Sound mind.

But they need to see this.
Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom; five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.
And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’ Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, Give us some of your oil; for our lamps are going out; But the wise answered, saying, No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell; and buy for yourselves; while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. Afterward the other virgins came also, saying; Lord, Lord, open to us! But he answered and said; Assuredly; I say to you, I do not know you.
Watch ;for you know neither the day nor the hour; in which the Son of Man is coming. Respectfully Parsonsmom.
