Big Picture

Hi there,
Today is Monday. Mother in law is ill, her cousin is dying and so is her only brother.
Her husband passed 5 years ago, and her son is staying with her. She decided recently that she would not drive herself to church anymore. She is 79 or so, and always on oxygen. She is feeling very vulnerable right now. Her name is Mary. She could use a bit of encouragement right now.
Mary has a caregiver who also is going through stuff. She is divorced, ex Military, about 67, and just underwent knee surgery, so she can't walk, and she lives alone. She lives on Social Security and whatever pittance she can earn, which isn't much. After she pays her rent, she still needs money for heating, gas, food, etc. Her name is Barb.
Doreen and I went up to the hospital and prayed with her and for her. She is really
fighting with depression. I think they both are.
My sister's 70 yr old husband is also in a bad way. He is fighting a battle for his life against several nasty cancers trying to take him out. He is losing weight fast.
Please stand in agreement with me for a miracle in all these cases. Bless you

End of the World

Greetings in the name of Jesus,
I titled this the "End of the World", because many folks are concerned about the end being upon us. In truth, we haven't even entered into the "Great Tribulation" yet. The world will not end for at least 1000+ years, because our Saviour must reign for 1000 years, as I understand years.

The end of the world is a must for each Believer in Christ. Friendship with the world is enmity with God. "The Spirit lusteth after the flesh" meaning that the Spirit wants to occuply the position of domination that our flesh now holds. There is a transformation in process in each of us. Little by little, line upon line, truth upon truth, precept upon precept in each of us. Our commitment to Christ is but the first step. Now comes the "fire" of the Holy Ghost. This fire is not the flame kind. It is the circumstance kind. In Christ, each challenging circumstance that comes into your life is a fresh trial of faith. We overcome by our faith! Not faith in our self, but faith in God Who has chosen us to believe on Jesus. The fire is, in truth, a purification process, converting us into vessels fit for His holy habitation. It is the end of our world as we knew it.

Prayer request:
My sister Mary Anne called this morning with devastating news, advising me that her husband Tex had just received report of a tumor growing and has requested intercesssion in prayer. He beat cancer about 18 years ago, and I have faith God will see him through again. He is a very godly man, great father and now grand father of 69 or so. He is a very gentle soul. Stand in agreement with us all that he will beat this also, in Jesus' Name.
