focus the unseen and not the things that you can see

Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.
Jesus has been speaking to me about focus and fixing my eyes on him lately and he reshow me this verse because i remember last year this verse help me a lot to keep my focus on him.

I got my ears peirced today, it was fun :D

update on my uncle

last year my uncle was having some problems with his liver, it wasn't because he was drinking, he found out he had a disease when he was little that cause him to have issues with his liver and if he did not get a new liver he would of die. so on the 23th about 12 we got a phone call that him and his wife will be going on the first ferry the next morning to vancouver to go to the vancouver general hospital because there is a liver for him. It is a miracle he got a liver, hallejuah. on christmas morning we got a phone call in the middle of the night that he had to go and have surgery again because there was internal bleeding and he couldn't produced urine and got another phone call about nine on christmas morning from our grandmas, saying he was fine and was producing urine now which is a great sign, the liver transplant went well so praise the lord.

A honest heart

God always speaks the truth, when he made a covenent, he keep it, when he made a statement, he meant it, and when he proclaim the truth, we can believe it what he say is true

why does god demand a such a honesty but rather why do we tolerate dishonesty?
1)we don't like the truth
2) we don't trust the truth

The cure for deceit: tell the truth,the the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Are we completely honest with all our relationships? are we being completely honesty in our crops? ask these question to yourself: Am i am trustworthy person, a reliable witness at the place where god put you for a reason.

The ripple of today's lies is tommorrow's waves and next year flood,start today,Be just like Jesus and tell the truth,the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Just like Jesus book continued :D

Jesus had a focused heart and he wants us to have the same heart, How is focus is your life? Ask yourself these four questions to see if your life is on track with god's plan:
Am I fitting into god's plan?
What are my longing?
What are my abilities?
Am i serving God now?

God allow us to have a fresh start at any point of our lifes. In 1 peter 4:2 it said:
As a result, he does not live the rest of his earthly life for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God. It never too late to get your life on track and be a part of god's wonderful plan he has for you :D

Phil&I crazy adventure in Gibsons

This adventure started at 9:30 when me and Phil met in the front of the Shalon hotel. We walk up to Granville and wait for a couple of minutes for the bus that will take us to the destination of the ferry terminal to get to Gibsons. We got to the ferry terminal, got our tickets and waited in the waiting room for a few mins and got on the ferry, read the newspapers and just wait until the ferry got to the Langale terminal. Got a voicemail from my mom and she said she is on her way but will be a few mins. She got there finally and we went up to sechelt for a political luncheon but it was more a snack than a lunch. There was a beach outside the restaurant and it reminded phil's as home and the luncheon was boring so we check out the beach, it was nice. We went to my favorite restaurant, cafe amigo for some Mexican food which was good, then we met up with my mom and we went to the Lind house to check it out and gave Gwen an angel and she put in the perfect spot and just chill out there for a bit, relaxing and checking out the Christmas decorations, it was so gorgeous, how I love that place :) went back to gibsons and got my dog and we went to my elementary school and I showed him which classrooms I went to, it was fun. We got back to my house and we were on time because my mom need to pick up some people for the dinner so she was going to take us early to save a place which we were fine with, my mom received a phone call from our aunt and it was one of the phone call that you had to take so we got drop off at the place where the shuttle bus was supposed to pick people up but we got there late so the bus was gone already but my parents had to go and pick up people so they told us to get out and wait for the bus that wasn't coming for 45 mins until my dad and my sister came and got us. Finally got to the dinner was good of course, it always is, sang some Christmas carols and got presents which is always fun. We dropped off Phil at my mom friend's place and I felt horribly to do that to him but it was out of my control so meh. Went home and went to bed, got up this morning, went and pick Phil up to take him out to breakfast with my mom which was great, took him to the sunshine coast community church to allow him to see it and took him to the ferry and waited with him until he got on the ferry. It was crazy but fun but it was definality not the way I vision it but meh what can you do?

psalm 29

Ascribe to the LORD, O mighty ones,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
worship the LORD in the splendor of his [a] holiness.

3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters;
the God of glory thunders,
the LORD thunders over the mighty waters.

4 The voice of the LORD is powerful;
the voice of the LORD is majestic.

5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars;
the LORD breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf,
Sirion [b] like a young wild ox.

7 The voice of the LORD strikes
with flashes of lightning.

8 The voice of the LORD shakes the desert;
the LORD shakes the Desert of Kadesh.

9 The voice of the LORD twists the oaks [c]
and strips the forests bare.
And in his temple all cry, "Glory!"

10 The LORD sits [d] enthroned over the flood;
the LORD is enthroned as King forever.

11 The LORD gives strength to his people;
the LORD blesses his people with peace.

classial christmas story of the Barnum household

A classic Christmas in the Barnum’s house

I count down to the days until Sam and Dan come home. It seems like only yesterday I was counting down the years until they were out of the house and my torment would end. Maybe it was only yesterday… Time is a curious thing . They arrive and the family leaves to pick out a tree. Sure it’s last minute, it being the eve of Christmas but a little on the late side is just how our family does things. Beside it just wouldn’t feel right if we didn’t all do together. Of course, by this time all the good trees are gone. We bicker about how we should of gone looking earlier but well, the bickering is all part of Christmas too. We argue about which tree of the few left is the least ugly and should have the honor of coming home with us. If mom get her way, and we know mom always get her way, we’ll end up taking home the ugliest tree in the lot. We pay for it, put it on the roof and are on our way. The males lug our little tree up the stairs and we begin to set it up. Well that is what we would do if we could find a tree stand. Where did we put that tree stand? After much rifling about we find it, but of course the bolts that hold the tree in place is missing. You would think after all the years we would get some new ones but we never do seem to learn. Everyone tries to recall how we had overcome this problem last year . Pennies maybe, did pennies work? Or was it bottle caps? I think bottle cap was it. Dan take one for the team and guzzles some beers so we can use the caps. It works. I hold the tree while the try to get it perfectly straight. I hardly see the point. It ‘s not as if the cat isn’t going to knock it over anyways. When impatience and frustration finally take over and the stupid tree is as straight as it’s going to get we start to decorate. First I fill it with water. Nobody else seem to care about the welfare of our poor Christmas tree. Sam, that brave brave boy , is in charge of the lights . It never seems to matter how neatly we put them away the previous year they still seem to find a way to tangle themselves again. He work diligently until they are untangled then begins the daunting task of making them work. He, like Dan, is our hero for making this sacrifice. Although our hero is heard screaming some less than saintly term at the top of his lungs at the lights, who don’t seem to take his treats very seriously because it’s another hour before they decide to light up. He has been to electrocute himself once or twice in his attempts before he manages to get them all working. Although, truth be told, I think he kind of enjoys that. So with the lights finally up we start to throw the ornaments on the tree. Yes, throw not put. Placing them doesn’t seem as much fun. Is it just me or do we seem to have fewer ornaments than last year? We have to actually put some heavy ones on the branches above the gaps to make an attempt at camouflaging them. It doesn’t really work. Its not all disorderly. We have our themes. Last year was gold, the year before that was umm well gold too. I can’t remember what the year before that was but I’m guess it was something truly spectacular and original. Mom has not been in the room all this time. I think the chaos is a little too much for her. She always returns at the end though to tell us what a beautiful job we’ve done (such a convincing liar my mother is). She also has the oh so important job of hanging the angel on top. We all stand around to marvel at the wondrous thing that is our tree, even though the skinny thing looks like it might fall over from the weight of all the heavy ornaments. It’s our tree though so we stand in awe of its beauty for a moment. Not long though. Its only a second before we can’t stand to hear the musical Christmas tree lights play its irritating tunes any longer and we all wander off to do our own thing.
Nothing eventful happens until the next evening when mom and dad take it upon themselves to drag us to church. They use every line in the book to guilt us into submission. Eventually we concede begrudgingly. We arrive and they give us all candles to light later. We’re a step ahead of them though because Dan has a lighter. We, being such rebels, light ours up and agree to blow them out on the count of three. 1... We look around to realize all our candles are already out. We try again. 2...3... They are all out again. We laugh at our inability, give up, and sit down. The time comes to light the candles. Rebekah tips the lighted one getting wax on the floor (shhh). We all stand and sing Christmas carols. Sam shouts out the lyrics to the songs as loudly and inaccurately as possible; noAL noAL. I nearly die of embarrassment. I’ll have to remember next time to make sure I don’t sit by him. After what seems like hours it’s over and we return home. I get home and relax. This doesn’t last long before I hear yelling and rush to the kitchen to find out the cause. I see Rebekah lying on the floor pounding her fists on the ground and hear her screaming “I want a drum! That’s all I wanted and you couldn’t even get it for me!” I see Sam and Dan laughing. I think they are insensitive until I realize that mom did in fact get Rebekah drums and join in the laughter. After a good half hour of Rebekah’s screaming we agree to let her open one present; the drums. She opens them and is ecstatic… until she remembers her screaming and becomes a little on the embarrassed side, silly Rebekah. After these antic the males (and Bek too) turn on yulin with the page. I try to enjoy it but well sports aren’t my cup of tea so I wander off to bed and eagerly await the presents to be unwrapped the next day. As I pass the kitchen I have to avert my eyes. Mother is frantically wrapping the presents. Well the ones that she actually remembered where she had hidden them. The rest will be left until next June when she finds them then puts them back in the cupboard in hopes that she will find them again next Christmas. When will that lady learn?
The next morning we awake to open our presents. Everyone is pleased with what they get. Well ok is less than pleased with the leather jacket but who can blame the guy? Sam and Dan got us silly string. Oh the havoc that ensues. Sam with his cleverness saves the last bit till no one had any left and ambushes us all. He’s a crafty one that Sam. We spend the rest of the day just relaxing and enjoying a Christmas video or special; The grinch that stole Christmas “BUT WHAT WILL I WEAR?!?” or maybe a Christmas story. “Ra ra ra ra ra’ If I have my way we play a game of monopoly but well I never get my way. Its probably best though since we’ve yet to play a game that didn’t end in a screaming match. I can say, without any bias, that its ALWAYS all Sam’s fault because h is a big cheater head! Finally the time comes when mom has completed dinner. Usually about 8 o’clock but hey like I said a little on the late side is just how we do things. Mom’s annual temper tantrum is all part of the holidays too. I would have thought she would calm down eventually, after all things always work out in the end and food is always good. Dad says a prayer and by the time he is finished we are all starving. We all dig into the spread of turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing (you can’t have Christmas without a whole lot of stuffing). We all prefer the brown meat (except one outcast who will remain nameless) so you got to be fast if you want some. If your not you can always steal Dan’s. He’s easily duped. Another classical the table is the egg nog. Each member must receive their fair share or a riot WILL break out. There are even disputes even when it is measured to the ml. In the end someone always ends up with more. We all know who that someone is. Don’t we?? Its all worth it though. Eggnog just wouldn’t taste as good if you didn’t have to fight for it.
When everything is over we all go off to bed and are glad that we had this time together. Who knows what our lives hold for us and how many more Christmas’s we will have together. Heck Dan will probably be off on some crazy adventure in who knows where by the next one. But when we are old and gray (in mom and dad’s case older and grayer ahahaha) we can always look back at those classic Barnum Christmas’s and laugh. I hope you guys liked my little story and had yet another very Merry Christmas!!! I love you all!!

Just recently i found out one of my brother wouldn't be coming home for christmas which make me a bit sad but christmas would still be good.

Love never fails :)

5 mins ago

so i was on the way to blog about this morning class which was a blessing but god want me to blog about seriously what happened five mintutes ago, i met this man name vince and we were talk about religion and how he believe in incaration. he did most of the talking but the words that i did get in which were good. then at the end he pray for me that i would follow the most high being. i so didn't receive it and as he was pray i was praying over him in tongues in my mind. we left the conversation and he follow me for a bit and said some more words and all i said is bless you.

jesus i pray for vince and i know you created him before in the foundation of the world and i know the theif only want to kill, steal and destory all the good things you have for him, which is perfect. Open his eyes to the truth that you are the only living god. there is nothing like you. no gods are best than you. you are the best and everything is good only come from you. thanks you for answer prayer to open my eyes for opportunities to respond to your lost sheep. hallejuah.

Please pray for vince. got any stragetics about preaching to people that do believe incarnation and how do you get words in with people that only want to have a one side conversation?

none

you are special to jesus and you are his.

class this morning

Elaine Gillingham is here to teach the war college about various of things for this week. It is so good to see her and melinda and darren. anyway, today she taught on Mercy and Justice and that our hearts are to be full with compassionate, to have do what Jesus did, as he saw a need,He filled the need. That our eyes were blind to things we see around us, pray for our eyes that we will see what jesus see and respond to what we see. The things in this area is not normal and that personally convicted me that i had been here for a year and as i walk the streets, i just choose to walk by it as it is normal. It is not normal to see people being twited out on the streets, seeing people shooting up in an alley or people sleeping on the sidewalk. My heart had been cactused and hardened to what going on here. Jesus had been speaking to me about already so it was just confirmation for me. we had heart surgeon this morning, allow the holy spirit to clean off anything that was hindering us to have his heart.

Jesus my eyes are blind, i come to you right now, i ask that you lift the covering that the satan has put over my eyes with the stuff down here. May i have your eyes to see and i would respond because i know the stuff down here is not normal, guard my heart against it being harded, keep it softed. that i would love like he did and feel what he feels. amen

the love of a kid

i was out with oliver this evening, we were walking back to the apartment and oliver had his eyes open for opportunities to bless other, this man couldn't reach his cane as he was going on the bus and oliver seriously ran over and pick up the cane and said to the guy here is your cane. The guy just smiled and then Jonathan B came around and oliver gave him a hug and jonathan was like thanks a lot bud i really need that tonight. It was so cool.

thanks you jesus for oliver and the love that you pour into him so he can pour that love on other people and thanks for the opening his eyes to allow him to see who need your love. thank you that i get learn from him to be more like you and more childlike because i know in your word it states in mattrew 18:3-4:And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. amen

short story i wrote about my childhood

Long time ago, there was a house where a a family of six and this family lived in chaos. Parents always fighting and arguing. There were four children that had to live with that for all of their childhood and through their teens and into their adulthood. John, Obadiah, Ruth and sapphire were all brothers and sisters. There were times of fighting and arguing but mainly they all stuck together.Ruth, john, and Obadiah usually tease sapphire and didn't like to want to spend too much time with her. Sapphire did not really feel much attention and accepted on who she was. Some days she felt like an outsider in her own home. Their parents had mental illness and no structure was established in the house so all the children could not really build any friendships especially for Sapphire because it was hard for her to make friends. She only had a couple of friends because of the state of the house she lived in. Friendship change and the friends she had all of them talk behind her back phoning her and set her up to said mean things to the other person that was on the phone listening in. Sapphire was loner, no desire to live anymore, she felt unworthy , unloved, unaccepted in society and this depression took over her. She attempt suicide but someone walk in before she did it. Things got a bit better for sapphire but she still desire a deeper relationship with her mom but it never really happened. This guy came into Sapphire's life and he took over and this guy was named Jesus. Jesus is the hope and he began to redeem things in sapphire life like friends and the love and accepts she desire all her life. Jesus strength sapphire's relationship with her sibling and he continually to redeem things in sapphire's life and her life and future look better and better Satan is on this earth only to kill, destroy all good things. He try to break sapphire's family apart but God is much bigger and stronger and he is ruling over her family and making it stronger.

cool qoute

The greatness of a man's power is the measure of his surrender."
William Booth

The more we surrender to god the more power from him manifests through us, how cool is that?

Jesus Help me to trust you more and completely surrending every aspect of my life because you are trustworthy and may your power be seened in me. Amen

Trust + Obedience= blessing and gifts from Jesus

i was in the war room last night and had this revelation. I was reading deut 28:1-13 and this what it said: If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth. All these blessings will come upon you and accompany you if you obey the LORD your God: will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country. The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops of your land and the young of your livestock—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks. Your basket and your kneading trough will be blessed. You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. The LORD will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven. The LORD will send a blessing on your barns and on everything you put your hand to. The LORD your God will bless you in the land he is giving you. The LORD will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the LORD your God and walk in his ways. Then all the peoples on earth will see that you are called by the name of the LORD, and they will fear you. The LORD will grant you abundant prosperity—in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your ground—in the land he swore to your forefathers to give you. The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom
Roman 9 :33band the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame.
Jame 1:17:Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
Then Jesus show me a picture of a christmas tree and him giving out gift one by one and he gave me one and i ask him what it was and all he said was open it and it was a gold block at said trust in me. I received the gift that he has given to me. Will you accepted the gifts he has for you?

1 cor 13:4-8

The Lord has drawn to this passage many times during the last few weeks,
4Love is patient, how patient are we with each other?
love is kind. how kind are we toward each other
It does not envy, Is there any envy in the body?
it does not boast, Are we boasting only in the lord or is the body boasting about other things
it is not proud. Is there any pride among us the body?
5It is not rude, Are we rude or do we speak gentle and kind toward each other all the time
it is not self-seeking, is the church seeking christ's face or itself
it is not easily angered, is there any angry among us?
it keeps no record of wrongs. do we hold grudges against people?
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. do we focus more on what is evil in this world instead of believing that our god is bigger than anything and he promises to redeem this world.
It always protects, do we believe the lord is our protector?
always trusts, do we think the Lord is trustworthy? to completely surrending everything to him.
always hopes, Do we believe in the hope that only from the lord, because he is the hope
always perseveres. are we giving up or keeping fighting this fight?
Love never fails. do we believe that?


Jesus Show us how to love like you love and help us to experiences the love that is only express in your word, may we be able to experience the fullness of your love. Fill us with your love please jesus. thanks that love never fails! Shower us with your love and help me to love like you do more and more each day i am on this planet.

Preach the gospel at all the time, sometimes use words

Action speak loudly than words, that is so true. To live out your faith is better and using words but when situations come then use words

street combat last night

Every tuesday night we hit the streets to street combat and we pray it up before we go out and we were just praying for salvation would take place that night. This two guy came up to us where we praying ask how do i getting into this jesus guy? seriously like 5 mins after we just pray for salvation, the guys were drunk so there wasn't any salvation but they did agree to go to a cell tonight. Me,Ross and xander intercede for denise and Andy Mcdonald as they talk with this guy. After we finally lefted the clock, my group went up to needle park, we saw julia(the one in the wheelchair) She is usually really talkative to me but she was just yelling and actually threated my partner to hit him with a glass bottle. I declare freedom and the chains will be broken off her and she will see that her life can and will be better. At the soup truck Jenea and kath said they met this guy and he was asking a lot of questions about Jesus. Last night street combat was good.

from the archives

i was reading my some of the thing i wrote last year and i came across this

here some cool quotes and shocking statitics all in american though.
In america, the divorice rates are double, teen suicide rate has tripled, voilent crime has quadrupled, the prison population has quadrupled, the birth rate out of marriage has risen 6 fold. couple living together out of marriage has risen sevenfold.
-decades of self-centered living and wordliness in the church of america. years of compromise and toothless gospel preaching. So true so true
-we need a revolution!
-but this revolution will be different than other revolutions including the revolution that birthed our nation more than 200 year ago, this revolution will not be fought with earthy weapons of destruction , not with guns and knives and bullets and bombs- it will be fought with the message of the gospel, with the love of god , the power of spirit, with radical holiness, with sacrifice , compassion, and courage. it will be jesus's revolution!
-our revolution is fueled by the power of the gospel, and the gospel does the voilence of the forces of hell.
- the gospel is a treat to the kindgom of darkness, the gospel does voilence against the forces of hell. WE MUST RECOVER THE FULLNESS OF THE GOSPEL OF JESUS!!!!! I believe the gospel can change a nation or a community, the church is sum what sugarcoating the gospel

Rathering than seasoning the world like salt and brightening the world like light, we now smell and taste like the world , and its darkness is snuffling out our lamps, Rather than setting captives free by the power of Jesus's blood, many of us are being ensnared and enslaved, making a mockery of that sacred blood. Rather than making disciples of sinners and teaching them the ways of god, many of us are being discipled by them, learning their ways, imiting their lifestyles and conformating to their values.

the divorice rates today among the evanglelical is higher than the divorice rate among the atheists. Now that is scary!!!!


It is time for the church to stand up , wake up , speak up and act up!!!!

I will walk in freedom, For I have devoted myself to your commandents. Psalm 119:45
Jesus became sin so we didn't have to, He took all our sins so we can be free and the truth will set you free and you are free indeed. So why are we still sinning?
We need to walk in the freedom that the lord has given to us.
To be blameless and spotless before the king of glory. May we devoted ourself completely what the scriptures are saying.

Father I will bring Glory to your name, Anyone know the reference to this scripture?

Jesu help us to walk in the freedom, that you have gone through for all of us so we wouldn't have to and i thank you for your freedom, where the spirit of the lord, there is freedom and we are free indeed when we have you. Hallejuah

What Yahweh is teaching me this days

Confidence in reading out loud
Boldness

His faithfulness
that every blessing he pour out, that i turn them into praise
Humility
How not take the spirit of offense,god put them in life to teach me something

His love
Love of other people
Using my gifts that he has gave me to bring glory to his name and blessing other people in my community
patience
tuning more into his voice and allowing him to speak over me the seeds of truth and taking the roots of death out of me
His calling and purpose for me are good
Thankgiving

Joy Gifter

You are the apple of my eye and the real joy gifter
Your smile will be my smile
May i seek your face and see you smiling over me

The Voice of Truth

There are so many voices in my head
which one do i listen to?
One voice is saying " you are ugly"
But the other voice saying Come up here, my beloved and my darling
One is saying you are not worthy
Other one is saying "you are sitting in the heavenly places"
One voice is saying You will never do anything good with your life"
The voice of truth is saying " My Plans for you will give you a hope and future"
One voice is saying You don't need any help with anything, you can do on your own.
The Voice of truth is saying Your help from me and carry each other burdens
I choose to listen to the voice of truth.



Goodness
I see your goodness surrounding me
It is in trees
It is in the sea
It is in the wind, sky and the sun
It is on the shoreline
It is in the waves crashing against the rocks
It is in the people around me
Every good and perfect gift come from you
It is in my family
It is in my friends
May i have the eyes to see your goodness more
You are good all the time


Holy is the lord Almighty

Holy is the Lord Almighty
May your glory fill the skies of this earth
for your name sake.
Come and judge this world
Display your marvelous goodness acrooss this land
May your servents of this earth declare your holiness each day and night
until your arrival back on this earth
You are holy
YOu are worthy to receive all power, wisdom, glory and strength

As i was walking up to cartneige to check emails and blog today, i had a picture in my mind that Jesus was singing this words over each of the women of the east side:
Beautiful One I love you
Beautiful One I adore
Beautiful One My soul must sing
Nothing on this earth is beautiful as you.

Key Ilustration

Picture of set of keys: You got your house keys,car keys and keys to your workplace. if you use your house key for your car or your car for your workplace it wouldn't work because the key for the purpose that you need it for only will work. It is the same way with heaven, Jesus is the key and you can try to use other methods to get to him but there is only one key to get to heaven Which is Jesus by his blood he shed on the cross.

If we are the body

But if we are the body
why arent His arms reaching?
why arent His hands healing?
why arent His words teaching?
and if we are the body
why arent His feet going
why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus is the way

1 Corinthan 12:12-20 The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Now the body is not made up of one part but of many. If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body. 16And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body. 17If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? 18But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. 19If they were all one part, where would the body be? 20As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

We need everyone in the body to do their part, if one person is not doing their
part, the body is off balanced.

Jesus thank you for the body of christ, May you teach and guide how to use your gifts that you has given us, i pray for a spirit of unity among the churchs please. amen.

i am really not doing so hot right now.
i am sick
I have no Job and i am getting really frustrating about not having one or finding strong leads that go to a job. i am not sure what i am supposed to do with this
trying to get help from god and he is not really help, making me doubt him and shatter my faith which is not good because i don't want to deny him, i love him a lot and i want to serve him but these past 2 months have been hard for me so i been relying on people more than him because people are helping me out in this area more than he is.
Not sure where i fitted here as a phase 2 student. i am doing kid minstry with lindsay and nicole which is good but i sore of feel that i am just tag along with them and i am not really need there. i want to established something new but not sure what and it stinks big time.

today

so i woke up thinking that i was going back to gibsons for thanksgiving and i am now. my parents were supposed to put money in my account so i could get home but they didn't because cirstumances. Sadly i have no job so i was crying because i want to be with my family for thanksgiving but thanks to community i got what i need to get back here. Praise the Lord but the Lord was teaching me through this. I realized i am dependant on people more than god because more people are helping me get a job than he is
not lean on him as much as i should
doubt that he is my jehovah jirah "the one that provides"
proverb 3:5-6:
Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight

I need more trust and faith

Lord i want to trust you more, i know you are jehovah jirah and i thank you, i pray that you show that name to me more and more please. i want to depend more on you.

1 peter 5 :8-9

Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

Here in Vancouver the enemy is definality attacking unity and family. He has been targetting the weakest of the group but hallejuah that when we are weak the lord is strong. We need to fight against the enemy schemes or pray the full of armour of god every day but all so clothes yourself with love and the blood of the lamb.

Lord i hate to seeing the enemy taking my friends away and seeing my friends in addiction being won instead of victory in Jesus. You have called every people of this session for a purpose. You have called them and appointed to be here so please teach us to how to fight again the enemey schemes. Amen

I pray you provide me a job in the next week please. i know you will do and i trust in you that you will deliver me. Help me to fight for one not just waiting on you to get me one and teach me to be a mighty warrier for you even more than you already have. You are good and your love endures forever. You are faithful to your promises and i thank you and i love you. Amen

luke 9:1-2

When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases, 2and he sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.

i was reading this morning during my devotions and i was wondering if we are jesus disciples which we are we should have this power and authority. why are we not tapping in that power and authority jesus has given us. Your thoughts?

knee drill

So last night we were asking what was jesus's heart was for the downtown eastside and this what he showed me.

Redemptive
Luke 15
Jesus cries over the eastside of vancouver
i saw a black veil over the people's eyes of the downtown eastside and little by little the veil was beening lifted off and a beam of sunlight burst through the crack of the veil.
It was pretty cool night

It is not about you, It is all about the king of kings. Focus on him
Jesus thanks you for this reminder it is not about me, it is all about you. help me to fixed my eyes on you more and more each day. amen

jesus is our safety net

i keep having this vision over and over again.
i am on tightrope and jesus is on the other side of the tiperope encouraging and spurring me on to walk to him. my eyes are fixed on him, i lose my balance but there is net there to catch me.
Jesus is alway there to catch me when we falled.

today

Melinda and I went to the beach today and we went to jesus and ask him to realize things that he want to get rid of in us and of course he did. i saw myself with rocks and seeing things on those rocks and throwing them into the ocean and that what i did and i got rid of unworthiness,believing in the lies that i was ugly and fat,unbelief and non-lovely and more stuff and as i did this more things came up and i dealt with it. it was awesome and as i was doing this jesus show me this picture of this jaw and as i throw the rocks of stuff the jaws were chewing them. I feel more freedom and lightner so praise the lord for deliverance. He is my deliver and he can be your as well, just let him :)

What is your favorite bible verse?

Mine is Ephesian 3:16-21:
I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit.And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God's marvelous love.And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love really is. 19May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God.Now glory be to God! By his mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope. 21May he be given glory in the church and in Christ Jesus forever and ever through endless ages. Amen.

chapter 5 - Being led by unseen hand:God-intoxicated heart

I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing…..If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. John 15:5, 7

God want to be as close to us as a branch is to a vine. One is an extension of the other. It’s impossible to tell where one starts and other ends. The branch isn’t connected only at the moment of bearing fruit. The gardener doesn’t keep the branches in a box and then, on the day he wants grapes, glue them to the vine. No, the branch constantly draws nutrition from the vine. Separation means certain death.

Jesus:the tranformer

If I could sum up this whole year in one word it would be transformation, Jesus took a girl that had no confidence, boldness and had no idea who she was in christ and transform me into a girl that knows who she is in christ, more confident and boldness. A girl that knows the lies that were spoke over her in the past are cutting off and is feeling the freedom that come from that. A girl that couldn't hear the spirit voice to seeing new things in the spirit to seeing visions and speaking those things over other people lives. A Girl that know the gifts that the lord has give her and using them for his Glory. Be real is better and having walls and not allowing people in and honesty is better because with honesty brings freedom and freedom brings Joy. I will never be the same after this year.

Chapter-A listening heart

All of us are busy, so rather than spending time with God, listening to his voice , we let others spend time with him and then benefit from their experience. Let them tell us what god is saying. If that is your approach, if your spiritual experience are second-hand and not first hand. I like to challenge you with a thought, do you that with other parts of your life? I don't think so. Vacations- you want to experience firsthand , not allowing someone else experience it for you and then tell you all about it when they arrived home. Romance: want to experience romance firsthand-do not want to miss a word or a date and listening to God is a certain thing that you need to do on your own doesn't want a substitute , He want you. He invites you to a vacation of his spender. He invites you to feel the touch of his hand , He invite you to feast at his table and he wants to spend time with you.

Will you accepted his invitation?

chapter3-the touch of God -Compassionate heart

All of us learned early that the hand is suited for more than surivial- it is a tool of expression. The same hand can help or hurt ,extend or clench, lift someone up or shove someone down. Hands taking more often thanksgiving, demanding instead of offering, wounding rather than loving. oh the power of our hands. Leave them unmangled and they become weapons , clawing for power, strangling for surivial, seduring for pleasure but manage them and our hands become instruments of grace not just a tool in the hands of God but God's very hands. Surrender them to become hands of heaven.

Jesus touch the untouchable of the world, will you do the same?
i was reading this and it brought on conviction because my hands has been use for voilence and hurting people so i known i need to surrender them to be hands of love and healing in people lifes and i did.

chapter 2-A forgiving heart -loving the people you are stuck with from Just like Jesus book

John 13:14-15
If I, your Lord and teacher have washed your feet, you should wash each other's feet. I did this as an example so you should do as I have done for you.

Jesus washes our feets for two reasons. The first is to give us mercy; the second is to give us a message and that message is simply that, Jesus offers unconditional grace, we are to offer unconditional grace. The mercy of christ preceded our mistakes, our mercy precede the mistakes of others. Those in the circle of christ had no doubt of his love , those in our circles should have no doubts about ours.
what does it means to have a heart like his,it means to kneel as jesus as jesus knelt, touching the grimy parts of the people we are stuck with and washing away their unkindness with kindness

psalm 67:2-4

2 that your ways may be known on earth,
your salvation among all nations.

3 May the peoples praise you, O God;
may all the peoples praise you.

4 May the nations be glad and sing for joy,
for you rule the peoples justly
and guide the nations of the earth.

Jesus already resigns in the world because he finished that when he died on the cross and rose from the death but he doesn't rule over of the world. We are the ones that has the authority and power that he has give us to rule over all the nations so why are we not tapping into his authority and power. i also hope this all making some sense

Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper, he felt the lord saying that the still quiet voice of the lord is going to speak the ears of these people down here and he is going to raise up prophets here in the DTES.

more quotes on just like jesus book

'God love you the way you are, but he refuse to leave you there, he want you to be just like jesus. "

God's love never ceases. Never. Though we spurn him. Ignore him. Reject him. Despise him. Disobey him. He will not change . Our evil cannot diminish his love. Our goodness cannot increase it. Our faith does not earn it anymore than out stupidity jeopardizes it. God doesn't love us less if we fail or more if we succeed. God's love never ceases.

Hallejuah for god's love and his grace:D

god encounter on outreach at extreme prophetic

on an outreach opportority through the extreme prophetic conference, there was a foot washing station which i feeling stonger lead to do so i went and got blessed washing this guy feet and doing back rubbing and getting one myself from experienced massage guy and he taught me about pressing points on the back and in the neck. anyway there is a guy name frank that came to vancouver for BTI(mini war college) felt led to go up to this one girl and he called ne over and me and him pray over this girl and her name was heather and i saw some many things in the spirit about like a lot of pain and i could feel it and it broke my heart and she start to open a bit more and told us that she has no idea where her mother is and her dad just left her a few months ago and i was getting to offer her a place to stay and she accepted and she is sleeping now. it was big blessing to help someone that show them that someone cares and love them.hallejuah! pray that she stay in this community and receive some healing and love in her love through this community, she is not saved but she believe that jesus love her.

just like jesus max lucado first chapter

what if,for one day,jesus were to become you?
what if, for twenty four hours, jesus wake up in your bed, walks in your shoes,lives in your house, assume your schedule. your boss became his boss,your mother became his mother, your pains became his pains, with one exception, nothing about your life changes. your health doesn't change. your circumstances don't change. your schedule isn't altered. your promise aren't solved. one change occurs
what if, for one day and one night, jesus live your life with your heart. your heart get the day off,and your life led by the heart of christ. his priorites govern your actions his passions drive your decisons, his love directs your behavior.

my walking experience

so i walk to teen drop in last night and i was just praying and talking with jesus and i saw this guy with a cross around his neck so i said hello and he said hello and stopped to talk to me. i saw a picture of a bright light before he told me his name and it was bright and he told me the verse in revealation1:16. we sat on the stone and talk for a least a half a hour and he gave me some wisdom and i gave him some encouragment and told him about our coffee place and he said he was going to come,it was a sweet experience and teen drop in didn't happened but the walk was worth it all.

none i know it was canada day yesterday but i had to do this

Hey, I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader....
I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dogsled....
and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada,
although I'm certain they're really really nice.

I have a Prime Minister, not a president.
I speak English and French, not American.
And I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'.

I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack.
I believe in peace keeping, not policing,
diversity, not assimilation,
and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal.
A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch,
and it is pronounced 'zed' not 'zee', 'zed' !!!!

Canada is the second largest landmass!
The first nation of hockey!
and the best part of North America

My name is Joe!!
And I am Canadian!!!

jesus is all i need

i was in the war room last night and i was listening to change me inside, good cd but the song you are all you need just hit my spirit so here are the lyrics:
By Brian thiessan
All the beauty I can see
If it could belong to me
I would give it all for You
Any greatness I achieve
Every praise I may receive
I would give it all for You
All I need
You are all I need
I have found it true
Life comes only from You
All I need
You are all I need
Nothing else will do
No one else but You
If I’m given comfort here
Offered what the world holds dear
I would give it all for You
jesus is teaching he is the only thing i need to get by each day of my life.

luke 8:22-26

One day Jesus said to his disciples, "Let's go over to the other side of the lake." So they got into a boat and set out. As they sailed, he fell asleep. A squall came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.
The disciples went and woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we're going to drown!"

He got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm. Where is your faith?" he asked his disciples.
In fear and amazement they asked one another, "Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him."

he can & he will calm the strong winds and the raging waters that comes in our lifes sometime if we just ask him to and give us the peace and rest that only comes from him.

War Room

We are been attacking against the war room these days, there is not enough people to allow it to run 24-7 at the moment, there is few shifts not being filled, i was in the war room last night praying about this and this two thought came to my head
one: every church,demonination,minstry of the DTES would be stirred up to pray for the streets of the DTES and the war room would be a centre station for unity among the city of vancouver

Second: Revelation 7:9:After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.
that every nation, tribe, people and language would be represent in the war room.

other verse:Mattrew 9:37-38 Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. 38Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.


please pray for more workers in the harvest and not allowing the enemy has a stronghold over the war room cause i believe that the war room is a most important thing to win this battle here in vancouver and i know the battle is already won, hallejuah

you are unique and fearfully and wonderfully made-receive it

first of all i am sad and bit disappointed there is no comments on my blog, it make my day when i get comments and no i don't do blogs just for the comments but it would be nice :D Leave comments please please.

Psalm 139

1 O LORD, you have searched me
and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.

3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.

4 Before a word is on my tongue
you know it completely, O LORD.

5 You hem me in—behind and before;
you have laid your hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.

7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?

8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, [a] you are there.

9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,

10 even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.

11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,"

12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

13 For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.

14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

15 My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

16 your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

17 How precious to [b] me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!

18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you.

19 If only you would slay the wicked, O God!
Away from me, you bloodthirsty men!

20 They speak of you with evil intent;
your adversaries misuse your name.

21 Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD,
and abhor those who rise up against you?

22 I have nothing but hatred for them;
I count them my enemies.

23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.

24 See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlastin

"The Room" by Joshua Harris

In that place between wakefulness and dreams, I found myself in the room. There were no distinguishing features save for the one wall covered with small index-card files. They were like the ones in libraries that list titles by author or subject in alphabetical order. But these files, which stretched from floor to ceiling and seemingly endlessly in either direction, had very different headings. As I drew near the wall of files, the first to catch my attention was one that read “Girls I Have Liked.” I opened it and began flipping through the cards. I quickly shut it, shocked to realize that I recognized the names written on each one.

And then without being told, I knew exactly where I was. This lifeless room with its small files was a crude catalog system for my life. Here were written the actions of my every moment, big and small, in a detail my memory couldn’t match.

A sense of wonder and curiosity, coupled with horror, stirred within me as I began randomly opening files and exploring their content. Some brought joy and sweet memories; others a sense of shame and regret so intense that I would look over my shoulder to see if anyone was watching. A file named “Friends” was next to one marked “Friends I Have Betrayed.”

The titles ranged from the mundane to the outright weird. “Books I Have Read,” “Lies I Have Told,” “Comfort I Have Given,” “Jokes I Have Laughed At.” Some were almost hilarious in their exactness: “Things I’ve Yelled at My Brothers.” Others I couldn’t laugh at: “Things I Have Done in My Anger,” “Things I Have Muttered Under My Breath at My Parents.” I never ceased to be surprised by the contents. Often there were many more cards than I expected. Sometimes fewer than I hoped.

I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of the life I had lived. Could it be possible that I had the time in my 20 years to write each of these thousands or even millions of cards? But each card confirmed this truth. Each was written in my own handwriting. Each signed with my signature.

When I pulled out the file marked “Songs I Have Listened To,” I realized the files grew to contain their contents. The cards were packed tightly, and yet after two or three yards, I hadn’t found the end of the file. I shut it, shamed, not so much by the quality of music, but more by the vast amount of time I knew that file represented.

When I came to a file marked “Lustful Thoughts,” I felt a chill run through my body. I pulled the file out only an inch, not willing to test its size, and drew out a card. I shuddered at its detailed content. I felt sick to think that such a moment had been recorded.

An almost animal rage broke on me. One thought dominated my mind: “No one must ever see these cards! No one must ever see this room! I have to destroy them!” In an insane frenzy I yanked the file out. Its size didn’t matter now. I had to empty it and burn the cards. But as I took it at one end and began pounding it on the floor, I could not dislodge a single card. I became desperate and pulled out a card, only to find it as strong as steel when I tried to tear it

Defeated and utterly helpless, I returned the file to its slot. Leaning my forehead against the wall, I let out a long, self-pitying sigh. And then I saw it. The title bore “People I Have Shared the Gospel With.” The handle was brighter than those around it, newer, almost unused. I pulled on its handle and a small box not more than three inches long fell into my hands. I could count the cards it contained on one hand.

And then the tears came. I began to weep. Sobs so deep that they hurt started in my stomach and shook through me. I fell on my knees and cried. I cried out of shame, from the overwhelming shame of it all. The rows of file shelves swirled in my tear-filled eyes. No one must ever, ever know of this room. I must lock it up and hide the key.

But then as I pushed away the tears, I saw Him. No, please not Him. Not here. Oh, anyone but Jesus.

I watched helplessly as He began to open the files and read the cards. I couldn’t bear to watch His response. And in the moments I could bring myself to look at His face, I saw a sorrow deeper than my own. He seemed to intuitively go to the worst boxes. Why did He have to read every one?

Finally He turned and looked at me from across the room. He looked at me with pity in His eyes. But this was a pity that didn’t anger me. I dropped my head, covered my face with my hands and began to cry again. He walked over and put His arm around me. He could have said so many things. But He didn’t say a word. He just cried with me.

Then He got up and walked back to the wall of files. Starting at one end of the room, He took out a file and, one by one, began to sign His name over mine on each card.

“No!” I shouted rushing to Him. All I could find to say was “No, no,” as I pulled the card from Him. His name shouldn’t be on these cards. But there it was, written in red so rich, so dark, so alive. The name of Jesus covered mine. It was written with His blood.

He gently took the card back. He smiled a sad smile and began to sign the cards. I don’t think I’ll ever understand how He did it so quickly, but the next instant it seemed I heard Him close the last file and walk back to my side. He placed His hand on my shoulder and said, “It is finished.”

I stood up, and He led me out of the room. There was no lock on its door. There were still cards to be written

sinner prayer

If The sinner prayer is totally not biblical then why is it alway uses to bring people into the kingdom?
John 15:16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.

what can we as christian do to making this better to allow people understand that jesus choose them first not the other way around.

It been 3 days since we been home from Fullness weekend( a prayer and fasting retreat up at camp Sunrise.( sorry i didn't blog about earlier) It was nice to see my parents and brothers and my good friend, Erin for a while before the whole retreat started. This retreat was a time of refreshing for me and god reveal more and more about himself to me. i broke off some generational curses from my family. melinda,lydia and i were in a group and there was three generations display there. it was great. we dealt with a lot of stuff, personal and family stuff and then as a prophetic act, we went down to the beach and throw rocks in to the water and janet Munn came along with us and did the same thing. She was declaring over us that we were free indeed and claiming the verse "He has remove our trangressions as far as the east from the west over us. It was a powerful experience.

Starfield Revolution lyrics

powerful lyrics. May the revolution of Jesus go through the nations of the world. I want to see the world have a revitial of Jesus all over.

"Revolution"

If I'm here all alone
If I'm left behind
If they spit in my face
If they hate my kind

I will rise above
I will live for love
I will answer to the call
For the bond between
For the depth unseen
For my God forsake it all

'Cause I'm a fire
I'm a flood
I'm a revolution
I am a war
Already won
I'm a revolution

When the world is at war
When the grace is gone
When the hungry lay dead
While the rich live on

I will rise above
I will live for love
I will answer to the call
For the bond between
For a depth unseen
For my God forsake it all

(Here I stand)
Open hands
Waiting for You
I won't back down
I'll live to speak Your truth

Ezekiel 37 3-10

"This generation is dying to see
Who You are and how You free
Come Lord Jesus come

I've seen lots of dead men walking around" Your Love by Skillet been in my head and in the war room i saw in the spirt the people walking down in the downtown eastside and i saw their skelton and then i pray these scripture out the window.


He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?"
I said, "O Sovereign LORD, you alone know."
4 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD! 5 This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath [a] enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.' "

7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.

9 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, that they may live.' " 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.

faith analogy

every time i am out on the streets and i see a ledge i had to walk on it. you may think why?
good question
at the beginning of being on ledge, it take awhile for you to get your balance- it like when you first become a christian you need to take baby steps to make your faith stonger like reading your bible and praying. As you walk on the ledge it become easily cause you are focus on getting all the way across it without falling off. When we fix our eyes on the author and perfect of our faith then our faith becomes stronger and we can do things that we couldn't dream or imagine.
Challenge:
try it and see for yourself :D
i am hoping this all is making senses to you.

Nations/your love

Nations
You are Kings of kings and Lord of Lords
You are not King of kings and Lord of lords over all the nations
I want to see your glory be established in all the nations
You said, Ask and I will give you the nations as your inherience
I am asking for the nations
May all nations,people , tribe and language of this world would
recongize who you are and what marvelous things you do.
I would go to the end of the earth for you.

Your Love
Your Love is Eternal
Your Love is Amazing
Your Love is Compassion
Your Love is Mercy
Your Love is a sacrifice
Your Love is freedom
Your Love surrounds us like the mighty mountains
Your Love is Unchanging
Your Love is better than life itself
Your Love transforms lifes
Your Love is patient
Your Love is kind
Your Love brings hope to the hopeless
Greater Love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends
Thanks you for your love

journey to freedom

i was in the war room a few days ago and i wrote this poem

As i am sitting in your presence
i think how i found your freedom
i was sad and depressed, where were you?
you were there sitting next to me holding me in your arms
hearing my tears and writing them in your book
i was scared and alone, where were you?
you sent me a friend to comfort me and you were there as well
As i look to the cross, seeing you taking all my guilt and shame so i can be free
you were crushed and beaten so i can be healed
thank you for taking my pain, angry and voilence
and setting me free
so i can see the whole earth be filled with your glory

praying the bible this morning/ knee drill last night

danielle had a song come to her mind last night, we get knock down, we get up again, they are not going keep us down. then this morning in pray the bible we read 2cor4:9 which We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going

random note:
the war college students are in the edge with doug barr praise the lord :D
Nicole and I had the same translation but the verse which is on top is totally different than mine which we thought was odd. i wonder why?

Beatitudes

Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called sons of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.


this a powerful scripture and i just want to bless and to bring encouragement :D
