Dear brother, HelenTn and I read scripture every night together before we sleep followed by a prAyer. You can rest assured that our prayers will INDEED include you. And I talk with our Great Almighty Lord all day as I drive my truck at work, so you will be included in many more of my conversations with Him. But in saying this, I really think that you can be sure our Lord has got your back. It really isn't very often that I meet a person so in touch with the Love that our Lord teaches us to share. I think He's happy with you, but that's just a guess. We are truly blessed to have you around, and I ask the Almighty to please keep you around here for a while longer at least, because your wonderful work has only just begun and is needed alot more than not. But not our will, Lord, Your will be done!! Amen. Love you, brother!

Thank you and God's will will be done no matter what so let ujs all continue to love as God does and has shown through Christ at the cross especially the resurrection where we all that beleive recieve the new life of the Holy Ghost the Spirit of Father and Son, teaching us all truth that sets us free.
I will say it as my Brother said before he went home when I was 21. He was talking to my sister the oine that is left my other has also past, now anyway my brotehr John was 33 when he passed form here to eternity.
All his life he was a go getter doing this for the Lord and that always keeping himself in check, telling others what they should od or not, and was just strivikng in total stress mode. Her got straight "A"s in schooll, designed computers, worked for Campus crusade for Chirst. On fire for God.
He came home was here for a little while and had I guess an ephiny and kknew he was going home to God.
He told my Sister Gretchen, he said you know Gretchen I have spent all my life doing waht is right to the best of my ability trying to get God and Mom and Dad to be pleased by what I was doing
Then he said today i see that GOD JUST LOVES ME, and you and all the people.
UIt was that Sunday that I recieved the phone call where he was found dead leaned against a bolulder with a bible in his hand two miles above the Sancruary on Campus Crusade for Christ
They never found a cause of physical death and wrote that on death certificate with an excuse that mortification was so set in that tey could not find a physical cause but they di dsay they could determine he died on thursday
Anyway this is what sprang me forth at 21 when this happened, I was and am convinced that Goid just loves us, no matter waht we do or where we go and this is what changes peoples minds to serve God and learn for themselves what is right and waht is wrong, and thus by agreement with God we just love back as God has loved and loves us
I do not care where anyone goes or what anyone does I am not legalistic, I do care whether oine does actually beleive and have found out those that actually beleive change their minds from doing things that are hurtful to them and or others in compassion for others. It is pretty simple once a person sees that God just love them, this as their foundation changes that one person in love between God and that one, then the board is out of their eye and can see to help their brother.
We are not under Law we are under God's grace and I appreciate this to the max in total thankfulness, because without this I would still be in my stress that I was in before I saw this amazing Grace, which I know God is faithful for all to see it and stop from their own efforts and see the completion from God through Christ and forever rejoice over this in absolute amazement.
I will stop now Love you deeply Brother

 

[7seven7]

Amen! But I wish you didn't stop lol That was awesome to read as I sit in my rig waiting to start the day. God rest your brother's and sister's soul. Peace be with you, brother, whichever way God decides to give it to you.

I think that is waht it is all about trusting god in all things especially when it does not look good and a lot of tkmes is not to us personally until we discover what is hidden behind the cloud
At 12 God gave me an experience I will never nor can ever forget, God at a Christian camp that I attended turned my life around. I was a cur up all week had just comne into puberty, was a young womanizer and just did not consider my neighbor as in seeing if I was hurting them or not.
I was left behind a the camp fire about two miles away from the camp fire and was told to put out the camp fire since I was a show off jumping over it as if I was somebody. So I put sand over it putting it out and started to walk back, realising at that time I ahd no flashlight and or coat, thinking I was somebody Isaid yeah whatevedr and started the walk back uo the trail, and my foot went into a hole I fell down twisted my ankle and started to pray, the next thing I knew I was in front of the cabin my hands and arme were in front of me dropping down to my sides, and I was becoming aware of my surroundings and I ran to the cabin and apologized for all my cynical behavior to all there.
After this miraculous experience from God the devil set out to destroy the Faith. First by getting me drunk at my brother other brother's wedding reception not long after I had this experience and still at the age of twelve. Then at 14 my sister on an overdose and Alcohol took more control as me at that time not wanting to accept her death, even though I saw reality her in an open casket. I refused to beleieve it at that time. Then my Dad of old age, but not really he was only 63 I was 17. He died of scerosis of the liver, water on the knee, ensomnia, and I am sure to this day that all this occured because of his struggle over Sue's death, Satan I am sure just beating him up through negative thoughts and pouring on the guilt of if only you had don ethis or that then this or that and Sue would still be alive. I am positive that "stinking thinking" killed my Dad early, and is what is killing people today, keeping them away from the full Gospel of christ back at the cross where Chrisat did it all for us while none of us deserve it period. He first died for us, then he rose for us to give us life and keep a positive attitude knowing since Father raised him from the dead Father will do the same for us
But mostly the Gospel preached today is that yes he died for all your sins Howard yes!!!!! you are wise Howard, then comes the butt!!!!!!!!! like a billy goat butting in forget about all that. Now it is your responsibity to follow and I as a a sheep, beinig billy goated fall for this hypocrisy in this society. WHY? because I never at that time moved on past the death of christ and got busy trying to obey by going to Church, by reading the Bible not the word the Bible mans interpretation not the word which is Christ himself, and did not see my need to be born again of the Spirit by the resurrection of Christ, new life where I quit from my works and take on God's doing God's works through me inplace of me doing as I was when I was stuck at just the death
So today I do many more works than I flesh could ever concieve of, when I was born of the flesh and all stressed out over whether I was doing this right or that right. Once god took over and I entered his rest as in Hebrews 4 speaks of, I am elated beyond all measure in my soul, while my flesh continues to deteriorate, It is well with my soul not my flesh as so many seek it to be well with thier flesh and are dead because of choosoiing flesh over the Spirit of God where only God can be worshipped today in Spirit and truth. So this as Paul said to die physically is gain. But He was to stay to finish the race that God had put him here for, and so therefore he did as he was called. Therefore you whether we die or not we are the Lord's period no matter waht no ands, ifs, or butts of the billy Goat any more
To proove waht I say about our works that we are to quit and wall nby Faith I shall point us to Galatians
Galatians 3:2This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Galatians 3:5He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
This includes all man made law as well, those that are under grace have no need for law because we uphold the Law as perfect from God and trust God to manifest it through us by God's type of love not man's as man so well does a great job in faking it and possibly hurt the elect in doing so when we get to see what these typoe of fakers are doing behind closed doors as I once was one that tried his hardest to stop, and then when I gave up trying to stop wwaived mylittle white flag I give up, god said thankyou and I said what? And God said now that you have given up, by your free will I can dowahy uo have been trying to do for you, but only by your free choice to do it. For I (God) gave you free choice and will not interfer with your free choice otherwise I (God) could not claim to love you. Today is the day for Salvation by Choice daily saying Father through christ have your way with me, I choose to die to my old flesh sinful nature and agian to do the same each and every until it becomes a practice, then that becomes a habit, then that turns into a Characteristic, and finally a trait such as what Peter talked about
Peter New International Version (NIV)
1 Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ,
To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours:
[SUP]2 [/SUP]Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
[h=3]Confirming One’s Calling and Election[/h][SUP]3 [/SUP]His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. [SUP]4 [/SUP]Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; [SUP]6 [/SUP]and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; [SUP]7 [/SUP]and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. [SUP]8 [/SUP]For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. [SUP]9 [/SUP]But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins.
[SUP]10 [/SUP]Therefore, my brothers and sisters, make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble, [SUP]11 [/SUP]and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
[h=3]Prophecy of Scripture[/h][SUP]12 [/SUP]So I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth you now have. [SUP]13 [/SUP]I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of this body, [SUP]14 [/SUP]because I know that I will soon put it aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me. [SUP]15 [/SUP]And I will make every effort to see that after my departure you will always be able to remember these things.
[SUP]16 [/SUP]For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. [SUP]17 [/SUP]He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” [SUP]18 [/SUP]We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.
[SUP]19 [/SUP]We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. [SUP]20 [/SUP]Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things. [SUP]21 [/SUP]For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

And My Brother in these last days

[h=3]Hebrews 1:1-14[/h]King James Version (KJV)

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
[SUP]2 [/SUP]Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
[SUP]3 [/SUP]Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
[SUP]4 [/SUP]Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
[SUP]6 [/SUP]And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
[SUP]7 [/SUP]And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
[SUP]8 [/SUP]But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
[SUP]10 [/SUP]And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
[SUP]11 [/SUP]They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
[SUP]12 [/SUP]And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
[SUP]13 [/SUP]But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
[SUP]14 [/SUP]Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Thank you for reading and hearing as the Spirit of God leads you my Brother

But at least, at the time of the storm, we had sitting on the boat. Power is God, not the storm .
