In Need Of Every ones Prayers I'm praying that Jesus keeps myself, husband, and a dear friend on level ground in our lives . Issues, situations is trying to keep us back and our minds bewildered in in untamed and trying to comes against us in others situations of which can be very clouded but we are standing in the lord and I all of you will be standing toe to toe with us in battle in coming against the enemy. I do have an update about my own health and this is what's going on as of today. I'll be heading down to the hospital at "Truman Hospital " West downtown K.C.Mo. on the 5/08/06 for a pre-opt evaluation for sugery 5/12/06 that morning but I don't have that time right now. Keep our family in your prayers. Here is some Scriptures that I've been praying myself and for all others whom seem to be having those same things going on as well Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God.
May your gracious Spirit lead me forward
on a firm footing.
. [Ps.143:10]N.L.T. There are "friends" who destroy each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a brother. [Prov.18:4]N.L.T.

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon me, because the LORD has appointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to comfort the brokenhearted and to announce that captives will be released and prisoners will be freed.[a] He has sent me to tell those who mourn that the time of the LORD's favor has come,[b] and with it, the day of God's anger against their enemies. To all who mourn in Israel,[c] he will give beauty for ashes, joy instead of mourning, praise instead of despair. For the LORD has planted them like strong and graceful oaks for his own glory.They will rebuild the ancient ruins, repairing cities long ago destroyed. They will revive them, though they have been empty for many generations. 5Foreigners will be your servants. They will feed your flocks and plow your fields and tend your vineyards. [Is.61:1-3] N.L.T. We all know whom destroys what satan trys to do us in, but Jesus hold so much power over him and it makes him crushed, and beat to a "pulp" and we will carry on-ward in the Lord. I 'm so thankful in Jesus Christ for giving us that power to help in that fight. Thank YOU Jesus in all things that passed us by and all things you're doing in our future. catcmo2006

The Blessings Of Friends


The Blessings Of Friends is so important to us as we all live on this earth daily routines goes by and often times fads away, moments, years as our lives takes it turns. Often times we all have taken ones own place back in time in looking at those yesterdays then as we look we begin to see what our own journeys have led us. We notices a mirrored images of what we did, where we went, what trips we had taken, and what we had done in that one's book of our friends. What was those events that had taken place in one's own times of needs, issues, crisis,in what had gone down at those time as being friends. We begin to see ourselves as we had come together in expressing current needs, or someones epidemic of our shallowness in each others relationships. We then had faced and embraced one another and returned to a serene moments of jubilee of what had happened and began to be moving in such a different times and places as each day passed between friendships. We of times gathered in those functions at our local church in giving such support, God helping scriptures to help keep each other focused on better solutions and in prayer in making it though so many times of owns own issues, habits, hang - ups that we had faced head -on in building each other - up in God's righteousness, in finding out all new meanings and fulfillments in God's timless principles that are gems and jewels about each others own relationships we found out in receiving each others burdens in the long run as of course we had weeped over our situations, our heart had cried as well. But we listened, prayed with one another believed in one another, and we all had rejoiced with one another when "Joy" came beaming in those lives of our friendships as we still hang -on in that beauitful blessings of friends. We all truly have one's own uniqueness in ones own nature, that fathomness, divine purpose, and that instilled values that Our God has truly givine us all as His grown kids. How He truly enlighed our lives in His understanding, importances in building our lives as we grow -up in Him as we began to see our own divine worth and purposes togather . That's "The Blessings Of Friends " I just wanted to share this with each of you today because each of you means alot to me, such love and caring people in the Lord. As well on our every day in our own journey we have such a priviledge that knowing each other is that experience that I truly don't ever want to miss at all. ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Here is some of my favorite scriptures about "Frienships" that I want to share with each of you today: Wen we have had done all those things first; then we unloaded everything unto Jesus and in doing so this is where we had taken our very own souls to at those very times. His anger lasts for a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime! Weeping may go on all night, but joy comes with the morning. [Ps.30:5] N.L.T As we looked deeply in the heart of God in all of nights that was so wavering,emotions, crying bouts, that was in the air in those long, long evening where we had shared in those emotions and toils of what, where, whom had us in such a splendor of enticements of such events that had taen place in each other this is where we went and allowed our Jesus to take us where He wanted us to go in our own lives and then left it at His Feet. I pray that your love for each other will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in your knowledge and understanding. For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until Christ returns.May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation[b]--those good things that are produced in your life by Jesus Christ--for this will bring much glory and praise to God. [Phil.1:9-11] N.L.T.

Here is a Poem that I had found in a Book and it's Writer is :'Edgar Guest" he died in 1959 but his poem is so very down to earth in this writing. It truly captures just what " Being A Friend truly is unto us all. This transcends generations and captures down - to earth poem on all of those right relationships are all about. " Be A Friend " Be a friend, You don't need money; Just a disposition sunny; Just the wish to help one another. Get along some way or another; Just kindley hand extended. Out to one who's unbefriended; Just the will to give or lend, This will make you someones friend. Be A=a friend. You don't need glory. Friendship is a simple story. Pass by triffling errors blindly, Gaze on honest effort kindly, Cheer the youth who's bravely trying, Pity him a labor spend. On the duties of a friend. Be a friend. The pay is bigger (Thought not written by a figure) Than earned by people clever. In what 's merely self - endeavor. You'll have friends instead of neighbors; You'll be richer in the end. Then a prince, if you're a friend. catcmo2006
