    'And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever--the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.' John 14:16-21 NIV

    I look like a bag lady when I go to church.  I use NKJV for my Sunday School class and a life recovery Bible for the Sunday Sermon.  The Life Recovery Bible is only the NT, thus the need for both.

    Lord, Shine the light of Your word on the path

    of our life today. Make it a lamp for our feet so

    that we will not stumble. Bring it alive in our

    spirits so that it illuminates our minds and souls.

    Let it be a guide for every decision we make,

    every step we take. Keep us from turning to the

    right or left so that we will stay the path with

    You. Strengthen our faith to depend on You on

    perfect timings of our life. Help us to rest in You

    when we feel tired and need Our Fathers love.

    (Wait on the Lord; be of good courage and He

    shall strengthen your heart. Psalm 27:14)

    Lord we are so grateful for each day You

    walk with us and help us to see all the people

    that care and blessing we can share. Be with Jo,

    Genia, Jane, Patoo, Deborye, mmm5,spar, kbugmom

    selya, Mary, and others here in need of Your comfort

    and caring hands walking with them. We love you

    Lord and thank You for this family here. In Your loving

    name we pray. Amen

    Don't you wish life came with a map to point you

    onward down the path? You could follow along

    and always know where you have been, where

    you are going to win. You would have directions and

    would always finded a way threw your pain.

    Good news, There is a map-  God --He will

    help you as you keep on track fighting cancer

    and will  be God's winner!

    Today as I was bringing the drycleaning in, a prayer fell out of the bag and it touched me so much I wanted to share it and tell all of you that you are in my prayers.

    My Mother's Prayer:

    Oh God make me brave. Let me strengthen after pain,As a tree strengthens after rain, Shining and lovely again.

    As the blown grass lifts, let me rise, from sorrow with quiet eyes, knowing that thy way is wise, God make me brave.

    Life brings such blinding things! Help me to keep Thee in sight, Knowing all through my night, That out of dark, comes light.

    Dorathy Brandt Ford

    I

    ***** I pray that all of you find strength today to face the challenges at hand and that you are greeted with answers and direction to push through to the other side.

    Justing wanted to add my amen to all of your wonderful prayers and JO I loved it about the flashlight and you know what, God knows what he is doing not letting us know the future because some of the stuff I have lived through if I had known what was going to happen I probably would have just given up right then but things have a way of working out and its better we don't  know and just place our trust in him.  Love you all, sisters in Christ.

    Dear Lord, Martin is in need of Your comfort and peace, She

    is fighting many cancers and needs to find peace in You. May

    she except You as her Savior and Lord, And know that You are

    always with her to help her with learning about the wonderful

    eternal life You have promised her.  O God, along with her

    worries and fears, Bless her and make wise the doctors and

    all who tends her needs at this difficult time in her life. Allowing

    her light to shine until it is extinguished and You lead her to

    her eternal home. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

    O Lord, Over and over we give You our pain and shortcomings. Each

    time we do, Father, You show us the answers in Your Word of Healing

    and assurance, love and protection. We find ourselves often turning

    to Ephesians where it about Your spiritual armor and the way it helps

    us. Help us all to remember we have a spiritual armor on when we

    sometime forget. You taught us to trust You more and yeild to whatever

    outcome You willed for us. Our anxiety disappeared, Our souls felt at peace.

    We watched in amazement while You worked. the Mountains never moved.

    What moved is our distrusting Your will. Thank You for how You made a

    teaspoon full of faith into a hefty shovel for all of us. Before we knew it

    You and us had tunneled through. In the progress, You gave us wisdom

    more valuable than gold nuggets. Thank You Lord, For helping  us as we

    reach for our teaspoon of faith. Please help Genia, Patoo, Jo, Saint, Holly,Martin

    Jane,mmm5,spar,kbugmom,Selya,Makraz,Deborye and others that are looking

    of there teaspoon of healing and faith, Threw You. We love You for all You

    have done for us. And keep praying someday we will all move our mountain.

    And look for the day when we all will see You smiling cause we moved our

    mountain into heaven with You. In Jesus name we pray. Amen

    Hi Spar, I'm still trying to get finished with yours.  Can't seem to concentrate lately to read more than 2 pages.  Very frustrating. 

    Pray all is well with all of my BC friends.  Love you all.  I'm super tired but was busy today. 

    Spar, glad you got out and are doing better.  God is awesome.

    Dear Lord, If we could see You face-to-face right now,

    Lord, we would have so questions to ask. When we try

    to answer them ourself, We feel like we am looking at every-

    thing through dark color glasses after coming in from the

    sunny outdoors. Nothing is very clear.

    We can't see You, Lord, but Your presence is here with us.

    Assist us as You and us search the scriptures together. Please

    grant us insight, comfort, and assurance. We are here, Lord

    to drink from Your spiritual well. Help us to see all the special

    ways You are always walking and sometimes carrying us. Then

    we hear Your gentle whisper, "Lets start again" And we are

    able to stand again, because You help us. Lord, We ask that

    You help and bless all the wonderful caring people here. Be with

    all the hurting and in need of comfort. Someday Lord, we will be

    free of pain and cancer. Til then Lord, We ask that You help us

    through. We ask in Your name, Jesus Christ. Amen

    The Lord Himself watches over you!

    The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade.

    The sun will not hurt you by day, nor the moon by night.

    The Lord keeps you from evil and preserves your life.

    The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go,

    both now and forever. Psalms 121:5-8

    You feel helpless. What you're facing now seems so much

    bigger then you,and you don't think you can do anything at all.

    You're looking for that Superman to come and save the day.

    The truth is, there are some things you can't handle alone.

    But no man-super or not-will be able to help you. No, there

    are some things that won't be subdued by mortal hands, call

    on God. He will come to your aid. He will lift you up.

    He will be your superhero.

    Lord, I am never helpless because I always have the power

    to call on You, My Lord. I will never despair, for I know that

    all I have to do is call  and You are there. Thank You Lord. Amen

    I command you--be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid

    or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever 

    you go. Joshua 1:9
