THIS SOUP IS GOOD, AND GOOD FOR YOUR BODY

The Cabbage Soup Diet

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also called "The Dolly Parton diet," for reasons that are shrouded in mystery, this 7-day diet really does work--in the short term, anyway. And there's a great purity to it--especially in the summertime when it's wonderfully refreshing served ice cold. Ingredient proportions can be varied according to your likes and dislikes. If you're interested in recent studies on the… Continue

Oh Lord you know me and my deepest thoughts and desires even before I utter them aloud,

1 Corinthians 13:3-5 (New International Version)

"3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,[a] but have not love, I gain nothing.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs."

Footnotes:

Simple Way To Leading A Young Person To Christ

Leading a Young Person to Christ

Speak in Simple Terms

Most young people will not understand what it means to “ask Jesus in your heart,” or “to be saved.” Avoid “Christian terms” and ask the Holy Spirit to help you speak to them in a way they will understand.

Meet them Where They’re At

Ask them why they want to receive Christ. Depending upon their experiences, young people will seek God for different reasons. Some people need a father, some are looking for… Continue

False Teachings

But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. (2 Peter 2:1 NAS)

The New York Times reported on December 27, 2009 that a young man, the son of a prominent Nigerian banker and former government official, was charged for trying to blow up a transcontinental airliner over Detroit… Continue

SAYING OF THE WISE - IT IS MADNESS

I say it is madness to hate all roses because

You got scratched with one thorn...

To give up on your dreams because one didn't come true...

To lose faith in prayers because one was no answered...

Yes; it is madness to give up your efforts

because one of them failed...

To condemn all your friends because one betrayed you...

Not to believe in love because someone was unfaithful to you

or didn't love you back...

To throw away all your chances to… Continue

A Passion to Know Jesus

3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, 4 though I also might have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he may have confidence in the flesh, I more so: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7 But… Continue

DISCIPLINED for a change

DISCIPLINED for a change

Having heard from a number of you, that while you desire to spend time with God, you are just unsure of what to do—and from a few others of you who just have an ‘on again, off again’ quiet time, always stretched for time, today’s briefing is my response to both. If we were in a battle, (and actually we are), when breakthrough is near, there is often a request for reinforcement. To grow spiritually, you will need reinforcement, dear ones. So, first we must… Continue

Why Angels Suffer No Return (Is God unfair?)

I had this come to me recently.

I wondered, what about angels? Not so much what is their purpose, because the bible tells us they are messengers. What I did wonder, however, is why did some angels fall with satan? I have been told before that angels do not possess free-will, or a free spirit. So I had to of course wonder how then did some them fall?

This is what came to me the other night as I pondered this question. Angels DO own an ability to make their own choices; they… Continue

AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO GET A PRAYER THROUGH TO GOD!

"I am Thine. Thy enemies wish to destroy me! Lord, look to Thy servant; Thy servant looks to Thee. O how sovereign is such a word against all the evils of life! I am Thine! therefore save Thine Own!" - Adam Clarke

"Consecration is a good plea for preservation. If we are conscious that we are the Lord's, we may be confident that He will save us." - Charles Spurgeon

"I am Thy servant" - What an effective plea for favor, help, and deliverance from God.

Can you say that… Continue

What if????

WHAT IF?

Yes . . . what if you did?

What if you really did want to grow?

What if you really did want to grow spiritually in 2010?

Yesterday, I suggested that you might go into training, just as an Olympic athlete does. The training that nets spiritual dividends most certainly would include Bible study and prayer, and should include worship of God, service, and giving. While some might stifle a yawn at the thought of Bible reading and prayer, I want to… Continue

Confidence Centered in Christ

4 And we have such trust through Christ toward God. 5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God, 6 who also made us sufficient as ministers of the new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.2 Corinthians 3:4-6

Confidently trusting the Lord brings many blessings. These include spiritual growth, personal achievement, peace, and… Continue

Greatest Moment of my Life

In June of 1993 I gave birth to a beautiful little girl. The delivery was difficult and because she was backwards I had to have a C-Section. Complications arose and I had to be completely sedated. I vaguely remember waking up, I was strapped down, very disoriented, afraid, and in severe pain. However, the only thought in my head was "Where is my Baby?". I could see the lights over my head as they rolled me from the delivery room to the recovery room, I was crying very hard and still hadn't seen… Continue

A New Year . . . so, let's grow!

One thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead.

I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Paul, Ephesians 3.13,14

Happy New Year! >This would be a good briefing to print, and respond in writing~

What will this year hold for you? There will be smiles, struggles, sin, satisfaction--the stuff our lives are made of. While nothing magical happens when we turn the calendar page to… Continue

ANOTHER YOUNG MAN...STAGE 4 CANCER....

I pray that God's will be done and that the family and John have peace, stength and God's arms wrapped around them this difficult time. May all who have home churches please put them on your prayer request sheets.
