SERVING THE VISION
leadership is not about power or control. it is about helping people live according to the vision. jesus said he did not come to be served, but to serve(mark10:45) and what did he come to serve? he came to serve the vision that had been given by his father. chuck colson pointed out. all the kings and queens i have known in history sent their people out to die for them. i only know one king who decided to die for his people. that's the ultimate in service.
thank you.God bless you

Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.---JOSUE 1:8 Many people keep asking these things: Yes... The secret of life was already revealed to all of us as written in Josue 1:8
before, i never knew about this because i was totally blinded by the god of this world 1 Cor. 4:3-4--And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing,in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. But to those who abide in His Words remain standing firm, whatever storms in life encounter...
The Word of God ( The Holy Bible ) is the manual of our life...it's difficult to use something like a computer if we don't know how to operate it and not reading the manual of it... same as our life... it will be difficult for us to carry our cross in life if we don't know His words and God's promises...in which can be found only in the bible ... That's why we must read it day and night, meditate His words... for God can also speak to us thru His Words.. and God is the Word itself!Jn. 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. So what is the secret of life that remains secret to others?Joshua 1:8 (Amplified Bible) 1. This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night,
2. that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it.
3. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success.
When we stop reading the bible, spiritual dryness comes...
then when here comes the trouble we can easily be defeated..
Today, as my kids watching Barney's show in TV.. which i saw a puppet show about the 3 little pigs who built their houses... I remember the Parable of the Two Builders( Mt. 7:24-27 )Amplified Bible So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them [obeying them] will be like a [a]sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock.
And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.
And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a stupid (foolish) man who built his house upon the sand.
And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell--and great and complete was the fall of it. Yes.. truly, Oh Lord, i said that moment that You are my great foundation and the center of my life... Without You, Your Words how could i stand firm... upon reading and meditating your Words, You give me strength to overcome everything.. No matter how many wolves will attack me I am very much secure for I choose to be in the best Foundation, inside this house (my heart and my soul)it's YOU that i put at the Center... So we must always read the bible,and meditate His Words..for God is giving us wisdom and knowledge, directing us to the right path.And giving us prosperity in all aspect of life.. preparing us to be a victorious Christian!!!

Thank you for the reply. Continue to grow in the garce and in the knowledge of
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You will never be alone, Jesus is with you always.God bless
Thank God, Finally somebody i can talk to that understands. I hear what you saying to me and i must agree. I have come to realize that being a single mom is what kept me in prayer and through that i am growing and becoming stronger in Christ. I am fully dependant on God for everything especially for wisdom to raise my kids according to His will. It sometimes hurt so much when I see my son yearning for a fathers love an attention and all he gets is empty promises. Thank you for your encouragement and i will pray for both of you we can become prayer partners. I will be fasting for 3 days this week from the 21st to 12noon on Sunday 25th, i am trusting God for a spouse please keep me in prayer during that time.

Hi Penny,
Truly Christian life is not easy but always remember that God is refuge and strength. He wants to show and demostrate to us His love, grace, mercy and power in our everyday life. Continue to read His words, pray, witness for Him and serve Him, attend church regularly. I hope I encouraged you. God bless.

COMMUNICATION WITH GOD
.................................................
For a believer,communication is speaking the words of the holy spirit,hearing with our ears and in our spirit and allowing our mind to process its renewal.surprisingly,we may think that communication is sending information to a receiver.but godly communication for us means to receive from the holy spirit information which will renew our minds so as to transfrom our lives (romans12;2).thank you.God bless you.

hello, here's a joke to welcome you at AAG! God bless you today and always. by the way how did you get to know this christian site?
WHAT'S A CHURCH?
A well-worn one-dollar bill and a similarly distressed twenty-dollar bill arrived at a Federal Reserve Bank to be retired. As they moved along the conveyor belt to be burned, they struck up a conversation. The twenty-dollar bill reminisced about its travels all over the country.
"I've had a pretty good life," the twenty-dollar bill proclaimed. "Why I've been to Las Vegas and Atlantic City , the finest restaurants in New York , performances on Broadway, and even a cruise to the Caribbean "
"Wow!" said the one-dollar bill. "You've really had an exciting life!"
"So tell me," says the twenty-dollar bill, "where have you been throughout your lifetime?"
The one dollar bill replies, "Oh, I've been to the Methodist Church , the Baptist Church, the Lutheran Church."
The twenty-dollar bill interrupts, "What's a church?"
