1 Corinthians 9:19: “For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win the more; 20 and to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might win Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might win those who are under the law; 21 to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law; 22 to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men that I might by all means save some.”

He cares about us…we matter to Him;
When days are bright, or when they’re dim.
We’re always on His mind, and ever in His thoughts,
And all the plans He has for us, are with much consideration fraught!
For those gone on before, now stand before the Lamb…
In spotless robes of white, before the Great I Am.
They fought to win the prize; some, martyrs they became,
While burning in the fire, they still dared to speak His name!
They stood up for the Cross…they did not die in ease!
They faced the fury of Hell’s gates, and sailed through bloody seas.
They fought the fight, and kept the faith, and held His banner high;
And while dying for His cause, they never questioned “Why?”
So soldiers of the King, must now, new courage take…
For the storms we do so dread, full of mercies soon will break!

I believe the spirit part of every man exists in Heaven before he becomes flesh here on earth…hence, the nursery window. God knows us before we are formed in our mother’s womb, and He places His purpose in us, as well as our gifts, abilities, etc. That’s why He could say: “I KNOW the plans I have for you…” Just a thought…just an opinion. -anita

“Other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” 1 Cor. 3:11
“When darkness veils His lovely face, I rest on His unchanging grace; In every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil. On Christ the solid Rock I stand; all other ground is sinking sand…” – Edward Mote, 1834 / William B. Bradbury, 1863
**************************************************************************************
I sometimes tremble so faint of heart,
Though on the solid Rock I stand;
And while the tempest rages wild around me,
I’m held secure in the Father’s hand.
Though on the Rock, I sometimes tremble,
As the storm clouds of life are all I can see,
He says, “Hold fast to the Rock of Ages…”
And He NEVER trembles under me!
He’s always with me,
Come rain, or shine;
In the cleft of the rock,
He comforts me.
He covers me there,
With His mighty hand,
And reminds me,
I’ve been set free!
Though I shudder and shake,
And shiver from fear…
I’m held in the palm of His hand.
I’m ever secure, when within HIS grasp…
As on the Rock of Ages, I stand!

Well…here we are, almost at the end of the second month of 2020. I made a list of several things I wanted to do differently this year. Things like: Changing my diet and exercising more, was of course in there, but other things came to mind as well. Things like, smiling more, being more kind and humble, really looking at people with God’s eyes and seeing their hurt, sharing Jesus more; then one thing really stuck out in my mind–giving up!

Our Worship service at the Mission on Saturday was such a blessing! Praying for folks with all kinds of requests. I was amazed when I realized that none of them asked for prayer regarding their homeless estate. They were praying for others-family members, friends, strength to witness…it was a real eye-opener to me. Read more…

0 And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children of Israel cried out unto the Lord.
11 And they said unto Moses, “Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt?
12 Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, ‘Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.’”
13 And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you today: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to- day, ye shall see them again no more forever. -Exodus 14:10-13
14 The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
