Mother Teresa's daily prayer...

Prayer of Mother Teresa...

DEAR JESUS, help me to spread Thy fragrance everywhere I go. Flood my soul with Thy spirit and love. Penetrate and possess my whole being so utterly that all my life may only be a radiance of Thine. Shine through me and be so in me that every soul I come in contact with may feel Thy presence in my soul. Let them look up and see no longer me but only Jesus. Stay with me and then I shall begin to shine as you shine, so to shine as to be a light to others.

Blessed Mother Teresa

(1910-1997)...

"IN HIS NAME"

Jesus said,  And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. _John 14:13,14

24) Up to this time you have not asked a [single] thing in My Name [as presenting all that I Am]; but now ask and keep on asking and you will receive, so that your joy (gladness, delight) may be full and complete.

25) I have told you these things in parables (veiled language, allegories, dark sayings): the hour is now coming when I shall no longer speak to you in figures of speech, but I shall tell you about the Father in plain words and openly (without reserve).

26) At that time you will ask (pray) in My Name; and I am not saying that I will ask the Father on

your behalf [for it will be unnecessary].

27)  For the Father Himself [tenderly] loves you because you have loved Me and have believed that I came  out from the Father. _John 16:24-27 Amp. Bible

Halloween BOOlevard Ad~Just one of many!..

Skeleton~Vampire~Werewolf Costumes, Candy,Candy,Candy!!!

This is all from one of our local store ads !

What Does The Bible Say About --The Tradition Of Halloween? this is from Bible.Com...

"Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes." Song of Solomon 2:15 

Some may consider celebrating Halloween as only compromise. However, it is the "little foxes"

that spoil the vines and this little compromise can open the door to other evils. Many Christians

do not   realize that certain traditions that are celebrated in the world have evil origins. Just because our society partakes in certain activities does not make them acceptable for Christians.

 We must look to Christ and His Word to see if the traditions of this are good or evil...

Mark 7:13 "Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered:

 and many such like things do ye."

One very evil tradition is the celebration of Halloween. No Christian should partake in the activities of this holiday, nor should they allow their children to do so...

Jesus Healed "All" Diseases!...

23)  And He went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good news (Gospel) of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every weakness and infirmity among the people.

24) So the report of Him spread throughout all Syria, and they brought Him all who were sick, those afflicted with various diseases and torments, those under the power of demons, and epileptics, and paralyzed people, and He healed them.

25) And great crowds joined and accompanied Him about, coming from Galilee and Decapolis [the district of the ten cities east of the Sea of Galilee] and Jerusalem and Judea and from the other [the east] side of the Jordan. _Matthew 4:23-25   Amp. Bible

Isn't it wonderful we have the promises of God's word !

God bless everyone.

Look!!!

27) It is He Who, coming after me, is preferred before me, the string of Whose sandal I am not worthy to  unloose.

28) These things occured in Bethany (Bethabara) across the Jordan [at the Jordan crossing], where John was then baptizing.

29) The next day John saw Jesus coming to him and said, Look! There is the Lamb of God. Who takes away the sin of the world! _John 1:27-29  Amp.Bible

Stop your unbelief and believe!.But Thomas...

21) Then Jesus said to them again, Peace to  you ! [Just] as the Father has sent Me forth, so I am sending you.

22) And having said this, He breathed on them and said to them Receive the Holy Spirit !

23) [Now having received the Holy Spirit, and being led and directed by Him]  if you forgive the sins of anyone, they are forgiven: if you retain the sins of anyone, they are retained.

24) But Thomas,  one of the Twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

25)  So the other disciples kept telling him. We have seen the Lord ! But he said to them, Unless

I see in His hands the marks made by the nails and put my finger into the nail prints, and put my hand into His side,  I will never believe [it].

26) Eight days later His disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, though they were behind closed doors, and stood among them and said, Peace to you !

27) Then He said to Thomas, Reach out your finger here, and see My hands: and put your hand

and place [it] in My side. Do not be faithless and incredulous, but [stop your unbelief and] believe !

28) Thomas answered Him, My Lord and my God !

29) Jesus said to him. Because you have seen Me, Thomas, do you now believe (trust, have faith)? Blessed and happy and to be envied are those who have never seen Me and yet have believed and adhered to and trusted and relied on Me. _John 20:21-29  Amp. Bible

Woman, why are you sobbing?

11) But Mary remained standing outside the tomb sobbing. As she wept, she stooped down [and looked] into the tomb.

12) And she saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

13) And they said to her, Woman, why are you sobbing? She told them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.

14) On saying this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing [there], but she did not know (recognize) that it was Jesus.

15) Jesus said to her, Woman why are you crying [so] ? For Whom are you looking for? Supposing that it was the gardener, she replied, Sir, if you carried Him away from here, tell me where you have put Him and I will take Him away.

16) Jesus said to her, Mary! Turning around she said to Him  in Hebrew, Rabboni ! -- which means Teacher or Master. 

17) Jesus said to her, Do not cling to Me [do not hold Me], for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to My  brethren and tell them, I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God... _John 20:11-17 Amp. Bible

Divine Code Writing...

Between moments of dispensing wisdom, managing things ecclesiastic, and occasionally intervening in world affairs, it seems that earth's religious leaders had also learned computer programming. One day, a great contest was held to test their skills.

After days and days of fierce competition, only two leaders remained for the last day's event;

Jesus and Mohammed. The judge described the  software application required for the final test,

and gave the signal to start writing code.

The two contestants feverishly typed away on their keyboards. Routines, classes, applets and

applications flew by on their screens at incredible speeds. Windows, dialogs, and other intricate graphics began forming on their monitors. The clock showed that the contest would soon be finished. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed and the power went out.

After a moment it came back on-just in time for the clock to announce that at last, the competition

was over. The judge asked the two contestants to reveal their finished software. Mohammed angrily said that he'd lost it all in the power outage. The judge turned to the other competitor, Jesus smiled, clicked a mouse and a dazzling application appeared on His screen.

After just a few moments, the judge was clearly impressed and declared Jesus the victor. When

asked what made the differance on which the decision was made, the judge said that the unique characteristic which set the winner apart from all the other leaders was that..."Jesus saves."

Not liking someone is no excuse for not loving them...

12) Clothe yourselves therefore, as God's own chosen ones (His own picked representatives),{who are}

purified and holy and well-beloved {by God Himself, by putting on behavior marked by} tenderhearted pity and mercy, kind feeling, a lowly opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, {and}

patience {which is tireless and  long-suffering; and has the power to endure whatever comes, with

good temper}.

13) Be gentle and forbearing with one another and, if one has a differance (a  grievance or complaint) against another, readily pardoning each other; even as the Lord has {freely} forgiven you , so must you also {forgive}.

14) And above all these {put on} love and enfold yourselves with the bond of perfectness {which binds everything together completely in ideal harmony}.  _Colossians 3:12-14  Amp. Bible...

Love Lifted Me...

I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore; very deeply stained with sin,

Sinking to rise no more. But the Master of the sea heard my despairing cry; from

the waters lifted me, now safe am I.

Love lifted me, love lifted me!

When nothing else could help, love lifted me!

Love lifted me, love lifted me!

When nothing else could help, love lifted me!

All my heart to Him I give, ever to Him I'll cling; In His blessed presence live,

Ever His praises sing. Love so mighty and so true, Merits my soul's best songs;

Faithful, loving service, too, to Him belongs.

Love lifted me, love lifted me!

When nothing else could help, love lifted me!

Souls in danger, look above; Jesus completely saves. He will lift you by His love

Out of the angry waves. He's the Master of the sea, Billows His will obey. He your

Saviour, wants to be; Be saved today.

Love lifted me, love lifted me!

When nothing else could help, love lifted me!

God Bless America

While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,

Let us swear allegiance to a land that's free,

Let us all be grateful for a land so fair,

As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer:

God Bless America

Land that I love

Stand beside her, and guide her

Thru the night with a light from above.

From the mountains to the prairies,

To the oceans, white with foam

God bless America

My home sweet home.

God Bless America

Land that I love

Stand beside her,

And guide her,

Through the night

With the light from above,

From the mountains,

To the prairies,

To the ocean,

White with foam,

God Bless America,

My home sweet home.

God bless America,

My home sweet home...

What the bible says about Love...

29) Jesus answered, The first and principal one of all commands is:

Hear, O Israel, The  Lord our God is one Lord:

30) And you shall love the Lord your God out of and with your whole 

heart and out of and with all your soul (your life) and out of and with

all your mind (your faculty of thought and your moral understanding)

and out of and with all your strength. This is the first and principal commandment.

31) The second is like it and is this. You shall love your neighbor as your self.

There is no other commandment greater than these. _Mark 12:29,30,31  Amp.Bible

Grasshoppers/Giants Refuse to talk like a Grasshopper...

Moses sent twelve men to spy out the land of Canaan.

Ten came back speaking defeat. (Grasshoppers)

Two were giant killers, Joshua and Caleb. God gave them the land...

And The Lord said to Moses.

2) Send men to explore and scout out [for yourselves]  the land of Canaan, which I give

to the Israelites. From each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a

leader or head among them.   Numbers 13:1,2

32) So they brought the Israelities an evil report of the land which they had scouted out,

saying, The land through which we went to spy it out is a land that devours its inhabitants.

And all the people that we saw in it are men of great stature.

33) There we saw the Nephilim [or giants], the sons of Anak, who  come from the giants;

and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

                                                                                    _Numbers 13:32,33 Amp.Bible

38) But Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh,  who were among the men

who went to search the land, lived still.  _Numbers 14:38 Amp.

The Prayer Of Jabez...

9) And Jabez was more honourable than his brethren:

 and his mother called his name Jabez, saying,

Because I bare him with sorrow.

10) And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying,

Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and

enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be

with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from

evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted

him that which he requested. _1 Chronicles 4:
