I wanted to apologize that I didn't make it here for the healing vigil over the weekend. My friend teresa's uncle died last week and the wake was friday. Then I had to work all weekend. I really wished I could have been here. Anyway even though the healing vigil is over please keep chuck in your prayers. He emailed me and told me the dr is wanting to put him in the hospital for a few days. This is suppose to happen on the 11th and he doesn't know how long he will be in the hospital for. He is suppose to let me know when he gets back.

Maybe you guys can help me with this, since you have upoloaded pics to the photo gallery. It tells me my pic exceeds the 5oo kb limit? What is kb? Size? I can not locate anything, anywhere that informs me how many kbs my pic is! I am using "Microsoft Picture It!" if that helps you to tell me where to go. Give PRECISE explanations, please, as I am pretty clueless sometimes about instructions . What I most need to know, is how do I change my phto to be under the 500kb limit? Any hehlp is appreciated!!!

Pray for Donna Scott, a friend of my family, who has manic depression. She ran away, and no-one knows if she is dead or alive (did she commint suicide, was one option). Someone said they saw her, but because she is a grown lady, they figured she was OK. She told her husband she did not want him paying for her meds, because she knew he couldn't afford it, so she quit taking them. Thus, the downward spiral....Donna and Dale Scott have two boys, not sure of ages.

Cgirl, the next vigil is this coming weekend Friday the 6th through Sunday the 8th for salvations:

HA !!!! I have this problem too..i also have Picture It!....Can anyone smart help us here ? Thanks!!!



Posted by: JeriRose12

First of all, I got it wrong. It's not "kb". It's just "k" -- 500k. JG said, to my inquirey under suggestions. bugs and helps, that it has to be 1/2 megs or less. I think he means meagabitz, as my picture is listed as so many megabitz in the file listings of name so of pictures. How do I get my picture to be 1/2 megs or less? What I don't get is, the picture is also only 277k, so why won't it work? When I'm on the actual picture, trying to resize it, nothing anywhere tells me how many megabitz or ks it is!!! Just tried again and they told me I had to enter a file name to be uploaded or some such deal. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeri, when you save the picture file it should give you an option for compression % or something like that if you are saving it as a JPEG file. Set the compression to a higher number or quality to a lower( depending on if it is listed as compression or quality, they mean the same thing just work in opposite directions) then just hold your pointer over it in the explorer window and it will pop up a little box that says the size. Try to get it to around 60K if you can. Maybe the meg JG is talking about is megabits which is megabytes divided by 8 which would be 500kbits or 500Kbytes/8=62.5 . Not sure but it sounds like that may be the problem. Hope I helped but probably just confused everyone way more than I should have

kb=kilobytes. It is a size... either your picture is very big, or you have it saved as a bitmap instead of a jpeg or jpg (same thing). Pictures are typically saved as jpg format.You can right click on the picture, and it will tell you how many kb it is.Right click on it, and it will bring up a menu, and at the bottom of that menu, it will say properties. Click on that, & it will tell you how many kb your file and/or picture is, and also tell you if it is jpg or bitmap.

I am not familiar with that program, but perhaps there is an option there to shrink pictures. If you can't figure it out, let me know, and I will send you an e-mail address to send the pic to, and I will shrink it for you, and send it back!Would be later today because KaeLyn & I are going to be leaving for the hospital soon. Hubby is in 72 hour psychiatric respite center, so gone until Thursday morning. we are suppose to be getting a big storm again, so please pray it won't be one to stop me from traveling to get him, or stop Brendan from being moved.We are suppose to be getting 6-10 inches & travel is definitely discouraged during the storm.



Posted by: JeriRose12

The pic is 257KB, so it's under the 500KB limit. Thanks for the tips and help guys....Still trying to figure on it. Shawn said to tell him what program I'm using and he will try to set it up for me. So, I hope it works, somehow.

I wanted you guys to know Donna Scott (family friend) was found and returned home. Pray she will take her meds!!! Her husband loves her SO MUCH and insisits she takes them (she has manic depression), but she doesn't want to be a financial drain, so she won't take them often. Also, pray for their two children, who are pretty freaked by their Mom's behavior. Pray that Dale (husband) holds up under the strain. Thanks!!!

Jeri,

A kb is a measurement of how big a file is. The bigger something is the bigger the kb's. So if there is anyway that you can make your pic smaller it may help. But with it being a picture I'm not sure about making them smaller. I know for instance in an email you can just shorten the email to make it smaller. But I don't know much about changing kb's in pictures.

got a call from the nursing home 4 blocks from our home this morning... they refuse to take Bren. They say due to his seizures he's been having. I truly think it's from my turning them in for negligience when my grama died due to their not strapping her into a commode chair, & taking too long to come and take her off... so she reached for the call button, fell out of the chair & broke her femur. She had surgery & when they were transferring her with the lift, they ripped open her stitches... she suffered in agony for 2 and 1/2 months until she passed away....
The hospital ppl for some reason are saying Bren is only wanting 10-30% of his food... so funny that when I feed him, at the hospital-he eats 100%!!! He is down to 85 pounds... 23 pound loss in 6 wks. time.
Weather permitting- he is coming home tomorrow. I pray God gives me the physical strength I need to lift him, & the emotional strength to give him the best care I can...we are making arrangements to get out of here... I am SICK of people saying, oh if you need help-- just ask... they always have excuses though-- but always have time when it's something they need... we don't need this on our lives. It's hard to even talk about it... people talk & speculate about Bren being in the hospital-- so much double talk & back stabbing in the town--if you don't fit into the "clique", the "in" crowd, they see you as nothing...well PRAISE GOD, I AM SOMEONE TO HIM, AND HE LOVES ME AND TAKES CARE OF US...
THAT is what I need to keep in mind... THAT is the REAL TRUTH... and I know & God knows how I took care of Bren-- those ppl don't...
*sigh*
The ceiling started falling in hubby's office-- it leaks... and we don't have any $$ to fix the roof......I'd better go... don't want to throw a pity party for myself... love y'all~ thx for being who y'all are~ my wonderful family in Christ Jesus~

About my pic: JG offererd to look at it for me, but I was having trouble emaling it to him I was really about ready to give up on computers at that point!!! How can you guys upload pictures, but mine just won't??? Oh, well -- God is good!!!

We were down at JGs. JG said children were going to start the revival. A girl about 10 prayed over a lady who was healed, and a boy about 3 removed the ladies brace. The lady is healed and walking perfectly!!! JG prayed for the children (he included my niece who was 21), and they all fell out under the power of the Holy Ghost. We stood around them and prayed in tongues. JG said whenever this starts with the children, revival breaks out. From the sound of things, they need revival to truly start. The church is called "Parkland Revival Center." But Jerry is just renting the church; the church folks aren't too in on the idea of revival. The pastor of the church believes in the gifts of the Holy Spirit and all, but he doesn't come to the JG meetings. His congregation is not totally backing him on the new name for the church (he just changed it). So...pray! Jerry said he will stay until revival truly comes -- he wants it to be self sustaining before he leaves.

StarChilde, I put up some prayers for Brendan. I was singing "Silver and Gld Hve I None," on the way home from JGs meeting. I sang it in tongues a lot. I was singing it for Brendan!!!

Silver and gold have I none
But such as I have give I thee
In the Name of Jesus Christ
of Nazareth, rise up and walk!
I'm walking and leaping and praising God!
I'm walking and leaping and praising God!
In the Name of Jesus Christ
of Nazarethm, rise up and walk!

Thanks for the prayers for Brendan~ he is suppose to be dismissed today~ however that will depend on our ability to go get him as well!We got anywhere from 6-8 inches of snow. I know where it is open, that there was some drifting!
I DID get some good news this morning. I asked his nurse about his weight, and apparently those who weighed him yesterday, did not know what they was doing! Hmmmm imagine that! Seems he is weighing 89 lbs. Although it is a low weight, it is still better than 85 lbs!
The services sound awesome!
I have a program where you can make pictures any size...wish you could send your pic to me. I KNOW I have room in my one e-mail for it, as well! If you are interested, let me know & I will send you that e-mail address.
Well, am being *paged*, so must end for now~

There are a few good men there. I went in there today and there was one prayer well, two for salvation. Most posts were current events that's going on in someone's day some are questions. Where two or three are gathered in His name, there He is in the midst. Remember Gideon and the 300? The fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much. Amen?

Hey there I hope everyone has had a good week. I know I haven't been on as much as I would like and I have been trying. Lately I just cant seem to get ahead of the setbacks. god shows me something wonderful and then I see two things which try to sweep my feet out from under me. I am fighting it like crazy and am holding on to what the Holy Spirit places on my heart as His promises. I am not going to give in or give up I am just not gonna do it. The more I pray the more it "seems" that evil is winning, though I know it isn't. Right now I am just trying to pray, it is like I have a mental block ( probably spiritual block ) that I just can't shake. But I am going to pray, and I am going to drive the devil back and see the promises God has given me come to fruition. we all need to drive forward, and I hope everyone here can find the determination to drive Satan back in their lives and look only to Jesus. It seems dark around me now, but I know that Jesus has already won and I am going to see His glory in everything. With more faith comes greater testing of that faith, I am going to pass that test!

Lord I ask that You give strength to everyone here to keep their faith strong and growing. Father show us all Your awesome power and might and lead us on into Your Glory. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.



Posted by: JeriRose12

Our sermon today mentioned life being a test, based on the "Purpose Driven Life," book. Life IS a test, but we have the answer sheet!!! The Bible. Keep on pressing onwards, James. I know I have not been posting to the 0s replies as much and not feeling overly motivated to do so. Not sure it's Spirit led, or me being lazy.... . Because I do pray here a lot, just renewing prayers in old threads, etc.

Lord, we continue to seek You for wisdom regarding our activies here. Lead us in posting. Don't let us be selfish and thinking of our own needs or pet threads. Help us be more efficient. You know how I usually paste in scriptures, too. Show me ways to be quicker and more focused. Stop me from going off on whims, but to only go where the Spriit leads. I thankyou for answering this prayer, as You promised to give wisdom liberally to those who ask. Let the fire of the Holy Ghost be in every prayer, but let us also be used in the "right" threads. Really encourage that one we pray for, and let them receive the answer that is according to Your will and brings You glory. I thankyou, Father, for Your aid and help, in Jesus Name, amen.

(One thing I forget to do is pray as I come on here that I only respond as HE wants me to.)

Posted by: lburgess24740

hi everyone. How are you all. I hope this post is going to make some kind of sense as my mind seems to be running in about ten directions as once today.

I was wondering if anyone had ever had something weird happen like this. I have prayed lots of times for my friend teresa because of her pain that she is in from her fibromyalgia and pray for her pain to ease but it seems lots of times after I do this I am in pain. Its like I take the pain for a while. I have had this happen with other things as well. Does this happen with anyone else and why? is this satan's way of trying to stop me from praying?

Also I don't want to go into much detail but a couple months ago God spoke to me about something but now it seems every couple weeks or so what God has told me is not going to happen but then it changes. Like one day it seems true and one day it seems its not and I'm about at the end of my rope with this one. I don't think I can take it anymore this roller coaster type thing. I try to hold onto the promise that God made to me but I'm so discouraged I just don't think I have the strength to stand it anymore and I'm about ready to give up.

Then I'm still having trouble with my finances and I think it is getting to me and making me depressed. I never worry too much about finances cause I've known that God has always provided for me in this area so I try not to think about it too much but after having my wages garnisheed and missing work because of the ice storms we had it is really getting to me. This is something I don't want to tell my ex husband about so it makes it hard when the kids want me to take them out to eat or buy them stuff like their valentine cards for school and stuff. I also don't want to tell my aunt and she depends on me to take her out to run her errands. I just don't want all the questions that she would be asking and I don't want to hear my ex husband fuss and I'm sure he would.

We have a different manager doing out schedules now so my schedule is not going to be the way I like it. He does not work as well with us as the other manager does.

Also I have been thinking about going back to school. I was looking into some online colleges as I think that would be the best way for me to do it because of working and the kids and stuff I just want to come home after working and don't want to be tied down going classes. I need wisdom in making the right decision as to what degree to pursue and which college to go with.

Well I hope I haven't forgotten anything but I may have just please keep me in your prayers cause I feel completely drained.

Lynn

I definately know the ups and downs concerning a promise, but I set my heart and faith that I am going to believe that promise no matter how impossible Satan tries to make it look. I figure one thing which God wont use to guide me is doubt or making something look impossible. God would just say " NO" because with Him all things are possible and He hates doubt. So just hang in there, ask God to let you know what He wants and then stick with it, set your faith on it and hold on.



Posted by: cgirl

Amen James, amen. You're holding your ground and not selling out. That's encouraging to see, what a testamony in the works. Even though everything isn't the way we want it, it's good to see someone lead by God's Word and not by circumstances or emotions. Hallelujah. The power of life and death is in the tongue, keep speaking life words in those circumstances, amen!

Dear Lord, bless James today with strength and encouragment in whatever he's dealing with now. Give him peace and joy as well. Bring his fiance into the kingdom we pray. Work everything for good according to your Word. We speak blessings over him/them today. Be blessed coming in and going out. At work and at home and in prayer time with the Lord, amen and amen. Thank you Jesus.

Hey there, hope everyone is having a great weekend. I know that lately I have been kinda down sounding in my posts but I have gained a little strength lately and am starting to fight back in these spiritual attacks and I just want to thank everyone who has prayed for me because I know that without you I would not be winning this. God keeps telling me to hold on, and I am starting to listen somewhat. I would just like to say to everyone here, no matter what the problem or situation, just sit down with God and ask Him to tell you what He wants you to believe and then stick with that no matter how impossible it may seem. God makes things happen that you will just never expect and even when Satan tries to make them look bad they are not. Faith, that is the answer, and faith is what we must have. That rock upon which Jesus would build the church was not Peter, but Peter's solid faith. Believe it, live it, breathe it, say it, do it. Stand upon that rock and know what is going to happen.

Lord give us the strength to keep on praying and to handle everyone that comes here's prayer.
Let us always be caring and compassionate for one another and lift each other up.
Be our leader, pouring out your Holy Spirit over us so that we,together, can fight off the army of darkness and have no fear in our hearts.
Thank you for helping all who come here and for hearing our prayers.
I don't know how you do it, Lord-so many prayers! But I'm glad you do and I truly thank you in Jesus' name.
We praise and worship you Almighty God, and hold you dear to our hearts!

Thank you Lord that you've already given us the victory. Lord God, work every thing for good according to your Word concerning James in Jesus name.

Most definately not cgirl. The Lord is doing some pretty amazing things though as I posted here http://www.annointed.net/forum/showthread.php?t=18857
but even with things like that I still get hit with these thoughts of " well look at that, you might as well give up now" or " see, it's never going to happen".

The deeper I get into the word and the more I learn and use the tools of the Spirit the harder the devil fights. One example was Stacey's dryer broke and she was coming over and using mine and in the last couple weeks I started praying over the cloths, it got to where she would go days before picking them up instead of returning before they were even finished. After I read about the aprons and handkerchiefs Paul used to heal and cast out demons I started asking God to put that kind of power in them and guess what, this weekend she bought a new dryer with her refund check. Funny thing is there was nothing wrong with the old one it was just her fuse box that was messed up. Every step I take in Jesus that is more powerful, gets met with more resistance. I know though that this is the reason why I am seeing more things which attempt to shake my faith, I am getting too close to what God wants for my life and hers and the devil is fighting it tooth and nail not wanting to give up. I also know that he isn't going to give up easily and since I am holding on to my faith he is going to really tear her apart as he goes down and I must prepare myself to see her go through that. The Lord will have victory though! And He will bring about healing and comfort and joy which has been taken away! I just have to be patient, I mean look how long Jacob had to wait for Rachael, he could have given up when he was tricked the first time but he stuck it out and received God's best, and through that Joseph was born and whole nations were saved through seven years of famine. I may never even live to see all the great things that will come from my standing for what I know God is calling me to do, but I know that it will be worth it for He does not give bad things to His children.

The Lord will have victory though!....I may never even live to see all the great things that will come from my standing for what I know God is calling me to do, but I know that it will be worth it for He does not give bad things to His children.


Yes, my name can be added to the list of ones going through struggles. I have not even had a let up in things happening, for some time now... I hate saying it...but it is true. It seems every area that I can be attacked in my family...we are being attacked, this is how it seems.I KNOW God has the victory, & I KNOW that He is the solution to all… lately my prayer has been God… I don’t want to be like Job..please…it sure feels like it. And it seems like the more I pray for others, the worse I get attacked!
Our roof is leaking, and last year in March, it caused part of Brendan’s ceiling to crash, a 3 foot by 2 foot section. We got a claim filed, but what they gave us was not near enough to fix the roof as we could not get any contractors who would give us a fair price, the one quoted us over $8,000 to do our roof! We did get Brendan’s ceiling fixed, and thought the back porch was fixed, but the guy who done it, done a poor job on getting the flashing right up against the house, and it leaks worse now than it ever did. It leaks down into a light fixture, and drips out of the light! So, it is a major fire hazard & we do not have the funds to fix it!
Hubby got turned down for unemployment... so we have to appeal that. He got fired due to not calling in for work when he missed more than 3 days in a row, & they said he should've known to do that. Well, when someone is not in their right mind due to depression & mental problems... how can they be counted on to remember things like that?
Just when I think Brian is doing better, he starts talking about going into a mental health treatment center again. I mention praying, & he says he has no faith. He doesn't want me praying for him either, or laying hands on him... praying over his clothes is a good idea.
Brendan is going into a group home Tuesday, February 24th.(This home is about 17 miles from our home & there is no way financially that I am going to be able to go down & be with him everyday. We can spend as much time with him as we want there and also bring him home for visits and stayovers.) I am having an EXTREMELY HARD TIME WITH THIS!!! Even now I start crying thinking about it... I do not want to put him in a group home! I want him to be at home with his family! That is where he should be! I cannot physically do all the work it now takes to properly take care of him for long term though. He needs to be put in a different position every 2-3 hrs. (3 hrs. tops) & this involves lifting him and moving him. It hurts my back so much that by the end of the day I can barely walk. Saturday night I done something to my right shoulder, & the pain is so bad when I even lift KaeLyn yet alone Brendan, that it makes me cry. I either pulled something, tore something or put something out of place. Hubby did help me lift him a couple times, but the first time, he stood him up on his feet, and the healed part of the pressure sore on Bren's right heel got torn off, and blood everywhere, & now it is exposed, and like a huge blood blister on his heel.
It is not that this place won't take good care of Brendan. They have track-lift railing for a lift all through the house, so they can transport him anywhere by lift. They will be able to put him in a shower to bathe him, where I have been only able to give him sponge baths since he has not been able to help me with anything. He is still not using his right arm at all, he has no reflexes in it at all, and the doctors have NO clue as to why! They have done both MRI & EEG and nothing shows up to indicate a stroke or anything like that. He is eating well for me, but I am afraid he will get depressed in that home & not want to eat, or they will not take the time to feed him, and not give him everything he would eat... I just feel like I am abandoning him! I want him HOME! I want him to be with those who love him the most! Is this selfish on my part? I love him so very much, and I don’t want to be away from him! And it hurts… oh it grieves me so much that any time I start thinking about it, I start crying. KaeLyn comes to me if she sees me crying, and takes my face in her two little hands, and says what’s wrong baby..what’s wrong baby…don’t cry… oh such a precious heart she has… I don’t want her to see momma all sad… please say a prayer for me… for my family.Thank you my friends...my family in Christ Jesus~ I say prayers for you all~ such a blessing to know all of you here...

(added this) On April 9th, Benny Hinn is going to be having a miracle crusade in Kansas City Kansas, and I have 12 guest passes...I desperately want to go and take my whole family...I am praying that Brendan gets his total manifestation of his healing at this crusade/service. I want to be able to leave his wheelchair THERE, because he won't NEED IT ANYMORE! I am going to start fasting & praying for this on Feb. 20th through April 9th...that we will be able to go to the service of Benny Hinn's, and that Brendan will be walking out of it,completely MADE WHOLE! My whole family touched miraculously! (Right now hubby doesn't want to go to the service...he doesn't like Benny Hinn...please pray he has a change of mind & goes with me to the service!)

Lord Jesus I ask that today You come to Starchilde's family and bring healing to them. Lord don't make her wait a month, bring it now. Father bless her in her faith and keep her family together. Lord bring power to her spirit that she may endure with a smile on her face and love in her heart. Lord show her Your mercy and grace and do great works in her life. Father I also ask that You forgive me for the weaknesses in my faith for I know I have not faced anything terrible when compared to the things which many others face. Lord help me to stand strong and not waver in my little problems and help me to be there tp pray for others and show Your love to everyone without reguard to how they treat me. Father bless those who would bring hurt to my heart and give them forgivenness for they know not what they do. Lord show mercy to those who attack me and bring them into Your kingdom and show them the proper path to walk. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

Thanks James for the beautiful prayer~ I have fought myself with posting anything about my circumstances on this board, as far as everything going on... God has been telling me, how can others pray and help if they don't know what's going on...share it... let others help lift the burdens off with prayer... so I thank you for this prayer!
I think everyone has their own tests and own trials of faith, and of endurance. Just because what I am going through, is alot, doesn't mean that someone who isn't going through as much, is any less important, or any less of a test of faith...I miss being on here as much as I once was able to be on here.If I hurt you in any way James, or anyone else here, for that matter... I ask forgiveness...do not hold it against me, for sometimes I know I do not walk as much in the Love of Christ as I should, and for that I ask forgiveness from God, and to have His help in developing that aspect of me more daily!
Each day going by, I think one less day I have to spend with Brendan in our home... it HURTS! He has been sleeping a LOT lately, almost all day today, had to wake him up at each meal... I did get hold of the wound care specialist today, about his pressure sore on his heel, and it is progressing, as I described it to her, and she said it was all good signs... so just time to let it heal!

God, I praise You and give You the glory for being here for all who seek You.,.. and I need You God... I need Your presence in my life, oh so much... I feel so weak..so very vulnerable... and I run to You... into Your loving arms..and say please please hold me... take away all the pain dear Father... take it away, if only for a brief moment... let me feel that peace in You, and of You...do the same for my brethren here... let us KNOW that we are asking in Jesus' mighty name, for miracles in each of our lives... for miracles of finances, of healing, of faith, of salvation, of ANY and ALL areas that need Your mighty touch... touch hearts and heal them, restore those who are lost,...bring them back home to You, and to loved ones...and You are worthy, and I love You and lift You up~ and in the mighty Name of Your son, Christ Jesus I pray~ amen and amen

Lord, strengthen and encourage my brothers and sisters. Everyone is under attack, and we want to stay faithful to the central call on our lives. Thankyou for that awesome testimony from Lawrance Kennedy tonight, of his total healing from a stroke. Now, he can talk and do all the things the doctor's said he would never do again! He is totally restored, hallelujah!!! And I just heard of a young boy from the Philippinas who was raised from the dead! After he was dead for 36 minutes!!! Raised back to life, praise You, Jesus!!! Lord, You are a miracle worker, and that's why we pray. We know You are going to send breakthroughs, so we refuse to give up. Lawrance Kennedy, well known in the body of Christ, had to go throughg the stroke to gain character. People said he was changed after the stroke; that he was gentler. Lord God, we want character, and we thankyou for the refining fires. Then, Lawrance Kennedy was called back to the central ministry You had called him to -- prayer!!! Lord God, I could indentify with so much of what he said. I pray that we all will see how you have put us in the fire to heat us hot, hot, so You can forge in us the character You want us to have. We are coming out as a wrought work of a forge, as refined gold, both being tried by hot, hot fires. Or perhaps a beautiful vase, as in glass blowing, which also takes heat, through which You can shine....I don't know where that came from; that was not my original prayer (that flew off the screen into the neverland). Anyway, Dear Jesus, I love You so much, and I don't understand why, but everything I go through just makes me want to know You more. Sometimes we waver; sometimes we want to quit; sometimes we don't know what to pray. But we will keep on. Because we know You are the God of the breakthrough and that He who promised is faithful. So, here we are, Your humble servants, asking for You to strengthen and encourage us. We will continue to pray, for we are warriors, and there is no other call that calls us as much as that one. Rather than praying the problem, may we look to You, Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. We thankyou for the breakthroughs you are sending!!!

Heal Brendan!
Heal Brian!
Comfort StarChilde!
Heal KaeLyn!
Save Stacey!
Save Vic!
Strengthen James!
Anoint ANOINTED WARRIOR!
Heal Talena!
Favor JeriRose
Touch everyone I missed!
Bring us into unity!

Take heart Starchilde, you have never hurt me, you have always inspired me to grow in faith! This in not prideful boasting but humble confirmation when I say that you have a faith that is strong and encouraging. As Jeri said we are bring tried by fire, and I will admit that it hasn't been pleasant for me this past year and while I would like to have avoided the pain, I can say I would never ever give up the spiritual growth I have had just to miss out on the bad circumstances. I know that everyday Satan throws something new in my face to make me think that God isn't going to deliver what He has shown me to be my future, but at each step when I say it only makes the miracle He is going to do that much greater I feel peace. Nothing is to hard for my God to do. God is not someone who guides you down a path for a long time then changes His mind and says well it just isn't going to work out so let's do something else, no He knows what will happen and guides us to it. Oh we may mess up and make it seem to take longer, but God knew what was going to happen all along and if He tells us it will happen it will happen. We just have to let Him do the leading. We are sheep not cattle, sheep must be led where to go, cattle must be driven. If we wait for God to drive us to something we will never get there. I have determined to do all in love and hold to the faith God has given me that He will guide me to the right decisions. I hope we can all reach a faith where we are not afraid to act, which I still am somewhat, but we must get beyond that point. Let us continue to pray for one another and reach out to as many as we can.

James

Thankyou for the encouraging words, James. I won't give up, either, on what I know God has promised. I keep seeing visions of my future husband, and I want to know where he is....

What would you guys think of me going on eharmony? I don't have the money right now, so pray I can get the money. Or pray God stops me if it's wrong. The guy who started this is a Christian, and he is helping couples marry someone who truly matches with them -- rather than marrying the "wrong" person, which is why most marriages don't last. He interveiwed people in successful marriges and people who had divorced, and based on that criteria drew up the questions for the profile that matches you to potential mates. I will probably have enough money when I get my tax refund, so I may seriously do it. Pray with me about making the right choice.

Once again, this has been a day where I have not gotten e-mails, telling me that someone has posted on my subscribed threads. *sigh* With my busy schedule lately, I am lucky to get on the pc much at all lately!

I had an app't. with the manager of the group home that Bren is going in to next Tues., man I even think about it and I start crying...Brendan knows something is up too..he was fully into the conversation today,like mom I am gonna be staying here and not home? type of looks... He gets a bed, and we have to supply bedding,towels,furniture for the room, and they provide meals... one good thing, Bren has gained 8pounds since he has been home...HA! TAKE THAT ALL THE CRETINS WHO SAY HE IS NOT BEING FED!!!!Especially when he was LOSING weight in the hospital!

James, your reply humbled me... I always am in awe of those who say my faith encourages them... for me this has been a lifestyle for many a year.I know about the refiner's fire... I have taken jewelry classes at college level,& know about burning the dross out of the metal for a pure pour... sometimes I wonder how much dross can I have? heheh.

What you say about God knowing everything..this is a comfort to me, that God sees the BIG PICTURE. I HAVE to trust in Him, for I have NO ONE ELSE that I can trust in. I got upset with hubby today, because he went to get some gas in the van,and something to drink, when we first got to the group home...then he never came in, but sat out in the van... I mumbled and grumbled about it...then he told me he was having hallucinations, and did not want to be around ppl, that he barely made it back to the group home because of them... he has fresh scratches on his arms...that he made... I want to scream at the enemy YOU CANNOT HAVE MY FAMILY OR ME!!! WE ARE COVERED WITH THE BLOOD OF JESUS AND BOUGHT WITH THAT SAME BLOOD, AND YOU ARE DEFEATED FOE, NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE DOING... YOU ARE DEFEATED-GOD IS THE VICTOR..HE IS..HE IS ...HE IS!!! HE IS THE GREAT I AM, AND I WILL PUT MY TRUST IN HIM, AND I WILL NOT STOP BELEIVING...I WILL NOT GIVE UP FOR I KNOW GOD LOVES ME... I KNOW IT WITH ALL MY HEART, AND I WILL NOT LISTEN TO LIES!!

WHEW.... sorry about that... get carried away, kinda mad at the enemy... I have been in a rotten mood,kaelyn has been in a rotten mood, and the nurse knocked Brendan's bandage off, and blood everywhere from his heel sore... I laid a prayer cloth on it tonight, and prayed for his healing...

Started my 7 week fast tonight at midnight...7 weeks of 7 days... the complete number by the complete number...I am going to at the very least fast one meal out of the day, and as God leads me, may be days where I do not do anything but drink water...may be days I drink juice, but I am not going to be so hard on myself... that is where self-defeat comes in...I am fasting that we may see a miracle at OR BEFORE the Benny Hinn Good Friday miracle service! I am praying that it will be possible that we get there, and get secure lodging, and a way there, and the funds to do so!

Jeri... I will pray that God gives you the wisdom to decide on the eharmony thing. I have to wonder what kind of idiots there are out in the world not to notice your beautiful heart, and pretty at that too! I pray that God brings you someone whom you can worship Him with, who you can share your life with, and share with God as well!

Well, it is late, and I best go before someone wakes up!
I thank God for all of you, each a blessing as a friend, and as a member of the family! Praise God for His Goodness~ and the mercy that endures forever!!!

I love to ride rollercoasters in amusment parks, but I hate them in my spiritual life . I will praise God for this though, that the ups and downs are starting to show me just how much God is working and how much the devil doesn't like it. I was hit hard last night but through it this morning I saw that it was because I was taking the fight straight up to the front lines, but I just have to learn to watch out for those hidden landmines. I have been struggling with a bigger decision as to what to do but last night a made a bad choice on a small decision and reaped a really hard lesson from it. I acted out of fear, spite, and a desire to speed up what God is doing, and believe me, I learned the hard way that I better not do the same on the bigger decision. Not to go into alot of detail but I did this, I asked for my camera back from Stacey which in a sense in not a bad thing, but I did it to 1, make sure I got it back ( it's only a camera why it can be replaced so why did I worry about it) 2, to show her I am in control ( yea right, God is in control not me) and 3 to shake her up a little in certain circumstances to hasten her listening to God( there I go messin in something God is doing, like I know better how to do it than He does).

While it doesn't seem to have effected her at all, by my taking it back I ended up finding an old memory card I had not used in years which had pics on it I thought and wished had been deleted long ago which led to things that were just bad and let the devil in in a big way. In getting the camera I took to her the sweatshirts she had left at my house which I have been praying over for a week, which was a good thing but I should have just taken them to her instead of using the camera as an excuse then Satan would not have had such an open opportunity to retaliate against my attack ummmph .. Guess I learned my lesson the hard way. From now on, if I can't do something in total unconditional love I am just not going to do it. I knew better and have been fighting doing things like that for a long time, but now I really know why I should not do things that way. Just though I would share that and hope others will learn from my mistakes.

I'm reposting what I wrote in another thread, because KaeLyn just woke up w/ a dream:

Forgive my not being on here for awhile. Not only have I been busy here at home, I have felt like I'm having such a hard time even composing prayers for my own situations, and what's going on.
I started my fast Friday, & I am allowing myself to have a meal a day, so if I do eat, I won't get into self-condemnation, y'all are familiar with that one probably. Today my meal sad to say, consisted of the peanut butter cups that KaeLyn decided she didn't like... she dumped them beside me, and I'd eat one...then another...then another... It was mindless eating, and such a waste of a meal *sigh* I should make a vow not to eat sweets, and the such... I done so good through all my fasting, for almost 3 months... through all that time, I ate maybe 10 days through then...

All of this with putting Brendan into a group home is really getting to me... and I know they will take good care of him... he just won't be HOME with his FAMILY... and that idea it just hurts me... I guess it is because I myself, wrestle with abandonment issues, & I feel like I am abandoning him, but I am not! I so desperately want him home with us... oh so much... I am crying even as I am writing this... I always said that I would take care of Brendan at home as long as I was able to... I never thought that my unability to, would be at age 43... and I am soooo mad at myself for letting myself be so out of shape that I cannot even take care of my son at home!!! Yes, I will be able to take him home whenever I want to, and see him whenever I want to, but it is not the same...it just isn't the same!

I am praying and claiming a miracle for Brendan, for my whole family at Benny Hinn's Good Friday Miracle service...I am planning on leaving Brendan's wheelchair down there at the coliseum! I am going to see him walking, and talking, and raising his hands to the sky, and praising God, just like JeriRose seen in her vision of Bren! I CLAIM THAT VISION FOR BRENDAN!!

~ I guess that hubby,KaeLyn and I, are going to Colorado for a few days on Wednesday~ so you may not hear from me for a few. I need a vacation, and going up to Colorado and seeing my family there will help take my mind off of everything that has been going on with Brendan so far this year, and also what is going on with hubby~ I am gonna be missing Brendan so much & have so much hurt inside, That I need to go somewhere & be surrounded with love, my oldest son & 2 grandkids are there & his wife, as well as my sister,my brother, my mom & stepdad.

Perhaps I can attend a Marilyn Hickey church servoce, it is close to where I will be!
I will post some more before I leave~

I learned a similar lesson, Jedi. Except, I did the opposite, for a cahnge. I just gave up!!! I put the matter in God's hands and quit moaning about it. I had asked for some days off at work. If we ask 30 days in advance, which I did, we are supposed to get them off. Well, I was schedualed ON for those days. So, another girl and I tried to trade shifts, but the district manager nixed it, because he said she had not closed enough to close on a Saturday. I explained that I had asked for those days off, and he seemed unsympathetic and said I would have to find my own replacement for the two days I wanted....sigh. Anyway, today, I explained to the day manager that I had asked for these two days off and she said Ron needed to get my request slip, etc....Anyway, I just decided to quit feeling like crying and get in a good attitude. I had done my part; I had tried. If there was no-one to replace me, whatever. I would work. And it wasn't the end of the world. Well, someone was late for work, so when the day manager contacted Ron about that, she also went to bat for me getting my days off....Hallelujah! One day is now arranged; I will switch with another girl. We only have one day to go. Now, what if I had cried, been in a bad mood, grumped, grumbled, moaned, etc., when God had a plan all along??? How much time I have spent fretting and stewing -- why God, why? when He has something in mind.

I know my situation is minor compared to many, but the point is: God hasn't forgtten any of us. I am praying that Suzanne gets to Benny Hinn, even started a thread about it. I am prayign we all keep hanging in here and believing for our breakthroughs.

Mean time, say some heavey duty prayers for our presdient. He needsa a breakthrough of his own!!! Pray he is vindicated, according to the word of Kim Clement and Mark Chironna, two proven prophets of God. Pray the WHOLE TRUTH comes out about the war in Iraq (and this "blood for oil" rot is silenced!!!). Pray people publicly thank him for protecting our country. Seriously, I wish they'd leaved our country if they don't like president that defends her! Our forefathers shed their blood for America, and celebrities have the audacity to ask, "Haven't we learned anything from history?" I sure have! That keeping America free takes sacrifice!!!

Hey, my church bought tickets for the Mel Gibson movie, "The Passion of the Christ," and we are going this Wednesday! Can hardly wait! Is anyone else going? If my pastor had not called the theatre and offered to buy out theatres, this movie would not be in our local theatre! This is so cool. Other churches called, too. But he indicated if he had not called, they wouldn't have decided to bring the movie here! I got to witness to a girl at work today and invited her to the movie!!! Pray Carly goes! She is 21, living with her fiance, and he is looking into Mormomism.

Better get off here, making up for lost time. So much posting to do!!!

The owner here at work, her church bought out a showing at the local thearer of The Passion and she has offered to buy tickets from them for any employes who want to go. If only some of the other management were as dedicated to Christ as she is. Oh well, guess that is what our wednesday prayer meeting at work is for, to pray for the rest of those here at work that are not following Christ.

This weekend's sermon was really amazing. After my fiasco earlier in the week, I had been re-evaluating God's plan for me wondering if I had misunderstood Him all along. But so many of my questions were answered totally indirectly it was great. While I was sitting there listening to the pastor something just spoke to me and said, " now remember how he came to be here at this church, a couple years ago he came here and when asked to become pastor turned it down, then a few months ago he was called back and is now a pastor everybody loves and respects and is bringing new life and thinking here. His time just wasn't right the first time, just like your time wasn't right before" It was an eye opener for sure.

Then his sermon had example taken from Pilgrim's Progress and was talking about where the travelers leave the rocky road to travel the smooth road in the meadow and end up captive of the Giant Dispair or something like that. I realized that I have been following what God wants, and that the warning He gave me last summer about how hard the road would be to get to His best for me was more true than I knew at the time. I have to let God handle this. The other point of the sermon was to let God handle the problems and for us to just do what He asks us to do, which for me right now it to pray and become more rock solid in MY faith, so that when the time comes I will be ready to do what must be done.

An even weirder thing was that I had commented on a thread about tithing and our sunday school lesson was on tithing, I didn't even know what it was going to be about because I didn't have a book to read it ahead of time. Those are just a few examples of answers I got this weekend, there were many more. It was like Ok here goes you are gonna get set straight on some things. I thank God for setting me straight too I was needing it.

Hello bothers and sisters in Christ. My name is Janet. I really think this is such an awesome site! I love making new friends. I have been spending most of my time in the "When you need a breakthorugh" Board. Our God is an Awesome God! I love Contemporary Christian songs in cluding those by Twilia Paris. I enjoy listening to Celtic Worship. I love Christian movies including End Times films. I enjoy the Left Behind Series books. I love books by Joyce Meyer. I enjoy serving my God by taking my therapy dog Coal to visit assisted living residents and mental patients and feeding the homeless with my church. I look forward very much to seeing The Passion of the Christ movie. I plan to see it with my dear best friend and sister Rachel in early March.

She wanted prayer for a friend who was dying.
Hours went by and not one person posted a prayer to stand with her.

When I got back from preaching and saw it I started to pray but it was to late her friend died. I really feel we let the Lord down.
There should never be one message that does not have at least on reply.

My dear StarChilde. You have such a heavy cross to bear. You are a great witness to others. I admire you for your strength. I will be praying for breakthoughs in your life and that you get to Benny Hill's conference.

Oh dear Gracious Lord, have mercy on my sister in Christ, Starchilde. Please give her strength and healing. Intervene in her life and move in a mighty way so she can see your victories in her life. Move in a mighty way so she can make it to the conference and so Brendan can get healed. I ask this in Jesus name. Amen.

Good luck and God Bless

Your sister in Christ

Welcome Janet, we are always happy to have other prayer warriors join us here for a little fellowship. Most of our time is spent praying for those in need, but it is nice to have a place where you can just say Howdy or Have a great day to others or to lay aside your burdens when they get too heavy and have others help you along. I hope you enjoy the site and the fellowship of other Christian friends here, I know I have.

Hello everyone. Just dropping in today to see what is going on. I've been busy with work and the kids and my aunt lately. And sometimes I think I've just been trying to keep myself busy to keep my mind off of things that are bothering me. We got a different manager over the cashiers at work and he has not been giving me three days off like the other manager did. I will probably just put in for an extra day every other week or something. Please keep me in your prayers as I am struggling with something I felt that God told me a couple months ago. Someone told me it could have been the devil disguised as an angel of light telling me this to throw in some confusion. I don't want to believe that but the way things are going lately it makes me wonder.

Jeri pray about the e harmony thing. I can't afford e harmony I have looked into it. But then again I don't know that I want to get married again anytime soon anyway, and I feel like e harmony is really for people that are looking for a someone to marry.

James I wish I had some people clothes to pray over.

starchilde I will pray that brendan gets his complete healing. As for your husband has he been to the dr about his depression? If so did the dr put him on any kind of antidepressants? My friend was on effexor and it caused her to hallucinate and they had to change her to paxil.

Hey, (From South Carolina-hey is Hi to some of you)

I have really enjoyed being a part of this website!
It is truly an honor to be able to pray for others or to put in a word I feel from God to be able to help others because I know He answers prayers.
It is also an awesome thing to see all you prayer warriors caring so much for others!
You all are so creative! It is such a blessing to me some of the pictures and helpful things you'all say and do here!
Just think, one day we'll all meet each other and be friends in Heaven with our Lord and Savior of whom which this is all about! Won't that be great?!
Love you,
Annie

Hello my friends, my brethren... letting you know that I won;t be on here for a few days, as we are going to see my family in Colorado. I had to weigh between leaving Brendan in the group home & being so far away, or being with my oldest son & 2 grandkids for a few days, letting KaeLyn play with her niece & nephew... my grandkids.
I miss Bren.. thx for the prayers on our behalf,..they are most appreciated! Mere words cannot convey that enough. Hubby has his good and bad days... some days it is like having another kid! If he quit running from God & faced this with His help, it would not be so hard..he says I have no faith... but that is a lie, because as my friend reminded me... God gives to every man a measure of faith. He is being treated for depression & psychosis... whatever good that is doing., All they want to do is stick him in treatment programs. *sigh*
I will be back or try to be back before I leave~ if not, I will keep all in my prayers~ God bless

hi everyone. Wow I'm here twice in one day. I need to talk to someone I suppose. This is going to deal a little with something I usually don't talk about here cause I try not to bring much of personal things to the board anymore. But here goes. Remember I asked you guys a couple weeks ago to remember chuck in your prayers. He was going into the hospital. Well before he went into the hospital I got an email from him stating that he was sorry but he could not handle having me around all the time. Now just to paraphrase here he was saying he had to get rid of some of his past and that meant letting me go and that I was affecting his health and he couldn't afford that and that he was sticking to his guns this time. Well anyway before this happened I found a group for lightning strike survivors on the internet. A yahoo group and encouraged chuck to join the group which he did and he started talking to a lady in that group and she started a prayer group on yahoo called his amazing grace and I joined that group. Well she made chuck one of the moderators. after not seeing him online for a couple days and I was checking that group I looked at the members and discovered that Chuck had unsubbed. I asked the lady about it and she said she had not heard form him in a whle but yes he had unsubbed. Well tonight I went to check the group. I seldom post there because of Chuck being there but they had several pastors in the group that sent out daily devotionals and such that I enjoyed reading. Well when I went to look at my groups I discover that that group is missing. So then I type in the link to it only to discover that I have been denied access as it says only members can access that group. I am really upset about this and wondering if Chuck had something to do with it. I have not seen himonline in about five days now so I wonder if perhaps he changed his email addy or something. I know he threatened doing that before but never did. And when he tells me to leave him alone I do until he im's or emails me again. So even though I was upset at the last email I figured he would be back around eventually like usual. but now with this I don't know what to think. I have emailed the owner of the group and one of the pastors in the group asking what is going on. I told the owner about the email that i had gotten from chuck and that I was concerned that he could ban me with being a moderator in the group and she assured me that I didn't need to worry there were too many other moderators for that to happen. Well I don't really know why i'm even posting about this other than to get it off my chest. See back in december I felt that God had spoken to me and told me that Chuck was in my life to stay. Now I'm not saying in what capacity because God did not tell me that. But this was during a time when chuck and I were not speaking and he was on my mind that day. I wasn't praying about him at the time but he had been on my mind and i was just doing my laundry trying to stay busy to keep my mind off of Chuck and God spoke to me (at least I thought it was God) and said "don't worry, he will be back, he will always be back, he's in your life to stay") and I felt total peace come over me at the time that is what made me believe it was God speaking. Then interestingly enough next time I logged on the computer I think it wasn't long after that Chuck im'd me so it seemed that what was said was true. Then my friend doesn't believe that God said this and someone else told me it could have been the devil disguised as an angel of light. I know it wasn't just my own imagination cause I don't feel that sort of peace come out of my own imagination. I'm sorry to bother you guys with this but I have tried to bottle it up and keep it off this board for months now but I just need to know what you guys think on this matter if you dont mind. I was at my wits end with that last email and just said I couldn't take it anymore. That I could take the back and forth thing anymore. So maybe that was wrong thing for me to say so now maybe God is removing Chuck from my life because of me saying that. I'm not even sure how to pray on this matter or anything cause really I just want to always know if Chuck is ok if that makes sense. Just how is his health and things like that. When I would see his light lit up on yahoo messenger even if we weren't speaking I would at least know that he was ok but now I don't even know that cause I haven't seen him online in about five days. Ok I will shut up and quit rambling. Sorry to spill my guts like this to you all but I don't know who else to spill them to.

Lynn


P.S. and speaking of wanting to know about people. does anyone know about sharon, the one that was homeless, I have tried to email her several times and the mail comes back to me saying her box is over quota?

I think it was God, Lynn. You're just being tested! How many times that has happened to me! I felt -- it's been about 20 years ago now -- that God told me some specifics about my husband. But WHERE is he? I see visions of him and wonder if it's all a hoax. Some big plan of Satan to deceive me....But, I pray and pray, and the visions don't fade, and I remember what God told me. In the same way, I believe Chuck will keep coming back into your life.

Lord, I pray You give Lynn comfort. I pray she knows peace. I pray that Chuck contacts her in some way soon. Lord God, please rermove all confusion and give her faith to believe. I pray Chuck will be healed from whatever causes him to shut Lynn out of his life. Work this all out for Your glory, in Jesus Name, amen.

Jeri,

thanks for answering me on this nne. Most people don't believe me about God speaking to me like that. My friend is like "you heard a voice" and I said yes I heard a voice. So she thought I was having a psychotic episode or something. I just wonder if by me praying and telling God I couldn't take the back and forth thing anymore if God may have just decided to remove Chuck from my life this time for good so I wouldn't have to go through all the stuff again? But then again if God really did tell me that it doesn't seem that anything I say would change God's will on something. I know most of you probably don't necessarily believe in free will. But I think God gives us free will to a point in our lives and then he will do something to snap us back into his will. So I'm wondering how could I get that message and the other person not get that message if that is God's will. And with you Jeri is looks like your husband should have gotten a message about you and be searching for you as well but it doesn't seem like things are working that way.

Lynn



Posted by: jedijeb

Lynn,

Free will is something many people have trouble with. Yes, God can tell us to do something and we can decide not to do it, but God knew what we would do before He even asked. I guess a question to ask here is was it God telling you what He wanted to happen or what will happen. If He was telling you what will happen then that is what is going to happen, after all the decisions and choices by those involved are made. If that is the case then even when it looks hopeless, there is still reason to believe in the outcome. David had been told he would become king of Isreal, but I bet that when he was having to hide in caves and run for his life from Saul that really didn't seem like what the outcome would be, but he stuck it out and look what happened. Search your heart and listen carefully to what God has to say, seek the presence and wisdom of the Holy Spirit on the matter and He will let you know exactly what you should do.

Good example Jeri, and also remember from that example, don't try to get ahead of God because look what happened when they did. Through Ishmael came the greatest enemy of the decendants of Issac. God works everything to the good, but we still have consequences if we try doing things on our own initiative.



Posted by: JeriRose12

Which is why I'm waiting for the timing of God's vision. I don't want any Ishmeal's running around. But how many years did Abraham and Sarah wait until the fulfillment of the dream God gave Abraham?

Moses, too, had a sense of his destiny, when he killed the Egyptian. But he was doing it man's way, not God's way. See how long he had to wait -- God had to pound the flesh out of him on the back side of the desert -- before he could release him into his purpose.

Like it or not, we're in a PROCESS, to get the flesh dead! God will use every means available, and, if we don't give up and quit, he can use us for the call He has on our lives. Some "arrive" sooner than others, because they become willing to die, sooner, so they are in their destiny sooner. It's been a LONG process for me....Too much going around Mount Sainai . But if I want to have the kind of marriage I dream of and pray for, I MUST be patient. To be the kind of wife I want to be, I have to deal with a lot of difficult situations that teach me how to die to my wants and desires and live for others (as I must live for my hunsband, once I'm married).

Anyway, go see "The Passion of the Christ." Awesome stuff. Very powerful. Will transform this country; will spark revival.

Im glad you saw that, and I bet Jeri hasn't seen the number on her post yet either . Maybe they should find a way to make the counters skip that number.

Hi everyone. I haven't been able to drop in for a few days. I've been having some computer problems and my computer will not let me sign in here. I am going to have to get it reformatted. I am at my friends house for a bit tonight so that I could do some computer stuff that I wasn't able to do on my computer like come here and let you all know what is going on.

Hello to all the new people.

Please pray that I can get my computer fixed up quickly and that it won't cost me much if anything to get it fixed. Well I'll let you know when I am up and running again.

I was planning to go see The Passion of the Christ Saturday but it was sold out. I was going to take my aunt. She will be 61 today and has never been to a movie so I was planning to take her for her birthday. Well as soon as we can get tickets we'll be going.

I'll keep you all in my prayers while I'm not able to be here for a while.

Lynn



Posted by: jedijeb

Well I got to see " The Passion" Saturday and as the owner of my company said, You don't watch it, you experience it. She bought tickets for everyone who wanted to go see it which was a great witness to those who work there. I got to take my sister with me and we both loved it. I will say that this movie finally told the story the way I always imagined it, nothing held back. Stacey called me today and was asking me about it and if I thought she would like it and if it would be interesting for someone who wasn't religious and stuff like that, I just told her that it was something to be experienced and that is definately was not dull or slow. I am hoping that she will get a chance to see it and I have been praying that when she does the Holy Spirit will be there in her opening her heart to just what Jesus did for her and the world. She accepted Him into her heart but I don't believe she ever truely understood the depth of what took place. I know that for me it took a while to learn just what a sacrifice He gave. I pray that the Holy Spirit will use it to open the eyes of many babes in Christ who have yet to understand the depth of Love which God gives to us, and to learn to accept it and use it to grow in His strength and increase their faith.

Well all my friends and prayer warriors I will now be going to school in the morning and to work at cessna 2nd shift so wont be hardly on here at all except on weekends, just to let you know where I am, man I am going to miss praying for people but will be praying in the spirit I suppose, God is opening doors left and right doors for me and he is blessing me beyond what I could ever imagine without me even trying to do anything..So just letting you know God Bless.. talk about awesome everyone is talking about the passion of the christ right when I went to work and talk to some of my old friends there they asked me if I have seen the movie yet said yep sure have and it made me cry amen told them they should go...Pray that God keeps me as a mighty witness not in preaching but in living it all out before them without trying but just letting Jeuss flow through me..



Posted by: cgirl

You have been a blessing to so many, thank you. And good luck...no, rather God bless, in your classes and on the job.


Dear Lord, bless and keep AW. He has been a blessing to so many. Give him favor in school and at work too. In Jesus name, amen and amen.



Posted by: lburgess24740

hi everyone I was able to get here tonight thanks to getting an email with a thread update. I clicked the link in that and got right in.

I found another program on my computer called hp system recovery or something like that so I am probably going to see if I can use that to fix the problems I've been having before I reformat it. Holding out a few more days so I can have teresa's brother on stand by to reformat if my attempt ends in disaster.

Please pray that it will work and I won't have to do the whole reformat thing.

Also something I haven't mentioned I need some prayer that I will get my tax return. I am wanting to buy my grandpa's car from my aunt. My aunt bought it for my grandpa and had just made the last payment on it right before my grandpa died. Now she wants to sell the car to cover the cost of the funeral bill. She said that if I pay the remainder of the funeral bill that I can pay off the balance on monthly payments to her. Please pray that i can get this car. Its not only the fact that I need a better car but the fact that it was my grandpa's car. I just want to keep it in the family for a while longer. If someone else comes along with the money before I get my tax return she will sell it to them because she really wants the funeral bill paid.

Ok now I don't know what you guys were exactly praying about Chuck but interestingly enough tonight I got a new friend alert from him that he had added me to his messenger. Funny thing is I got three of them so I'm not sure why that was. And I got an email from him just telling me that he was unblocking me.

Anointed warrior I hope things go well for you with school and your job.

Well I just wanted to drop in since I could and update you all. I'm really tired cause I did not sleep well last night so I think I'm going to go to bed now.

Lynn

Hi my brethren~ this is hard... I find it hard to even type this... this putting Bren into the medically fragile group home that he is in, is overwhelming me emotionally more than I ever thought it would... all I can do it think about Brendan, how is he doing? what is he doing? does he miss me like I do him? is he thinking about me like I am thinking about him? Everytime I think about him, I start crying... KaeLyn comes up to me, holding my face, what's wrong baby? what's wrong? Why you crying? And I feel so bad to let her see this happening to me because I miss Bren so much!
I feel I am of no use to anyone here right now, because I can barely pray for my own family, yet anyone else... forgive me for my weakness. I don't know how long I can stand having Brendan in there... yet my own body limits what I can do...as far as lifting him, and taking care of him as he truly needs... I put my shoulder out 3 weeks ago, & it is so sore I feel pain in it all the time. When Bren is home, he has to be moved every 2 hours, and 3 hours at the most... so that means moving him at least 8-12 times per day, at almost 100 pounds, that is 800- 1200 pounds lifted per day, plus extra for bathing and toileting... I just cannot do it... hubby helps me some, but I hate asking him, because he is having a hard enough time with his own mental issues. I found new gouge marks on his arms today...
I am so mad at myself because I always said that I would keep Brendan at home until I couldn't... I never thought that would come at age 43. I guess that is why I am so mad at myself, is because I am to blame for my being so out of shape...
I am fighting the enemy's urgings just to end everything...I know that is a lie. I won't go into everything going on... I know God has my answers... I just want some good to start happening... I feel like I am drowning... I am sorry I let all down... so sorry I am not who I should be in Christ~ God bless all of you~ thanks for all the prayers everyone has ever said for me and my family~ you are all wonderful & I love my family in Christ here.

Lord! We ask that you would touch Starchilde and family in a special way. Bring that healing, to all of them, supply every need. Give encouragement and peace with joy now Lord, now. I rebuke this condemnation, shut up in Jesus name! I loose encouragement, victory, healing, and joy in the name of the Lord, amen and amen.

Our words have power so ~speak life words~ no matter how the flesh feels. I know it's hard, and easier said than done, but not impossible. When that condemnation tries to whisper in your ear saying you are not what you should be, cast it down. You will start to feel better and better the more you reject those lies (2Cor 10:5). You are more than a Conqueror. You are the head and not the tail.

Lord I come before you today on behalf of your child, Starchilde. Lord please ease her suffering and the suffering of her family. Lord provide her with the answers to her many questions. Please offer solutions to the many issues she faces. Lord Starchilde has offered comfort and love to so many of us. Please help her Lord in Jesus's name amen.

Wow, a lot has been going on. I've hardly been on here.

I have been asking God what SPECIFICLY He wants me to do, because after seeing "The Passion of the Christ," a person doesn't want to waste ONE MOMENT!!! What's funny is tonight at work, I asked the Lord if we could please get no customers so I could hurry and finish the lobby (it had been slow, and we had a new person we were training, so I figured we could get out earlier), so I could go home and pray and get on with what was really "important." Not one minute later, a car pulled in, and you guessed it, we had customers. Not only that, they sat and talked a LONG time. So, I guess the mundane stuff IS important. I wanted God to tell me I had some huge purpose and call on my life, and He seemed to be saying, "Your call is to do your job. That's important, too." I had to laugh to myself! I just had a feeling after I prayed that that we would get customers. And we did. So, I guess some of us are called to do the "samll jobs." And that was God telling me that that was no smaller than anything else He was calling me to do.

It's just once you see the movie, it's so hard to want to do "mundane" things. He did SO MUCH for us, we want to do something BIG for Him. I was trying to put this all in perspective tonight. I was trying to figure out how working at Taco Time could have any eternal value. And I realized being Christ like to the customers was part of that. They asked if we were still open and "Are you still serving?" Very nicely and happily, I said, "Oh, yeah!" and I could tell they really apprectiated my good attitude and later, when leaving, they expressed appreciation by saying, "Thankyou so much!" because I hadn't given them the bums rush.

So it was a good learning experience. His will is sometimes so practical we can miss it. We feel like "What is my sluffing away at this low paying job really accomplishing?" We think God has some big, huge awesome thing lined up....And yet, everyone is not called to the "big" thing someone else is called to do. And didn't He say, "If you would be great in God's kingdom, learn to be servant of all?"

I wanted to give money on Jerry's "challange," and I had said in that thread that I could give some, but now that I've figured out the bills, where has all the money gone ??? Jerry told us to test God, so pray I am obedient. I always tithe to God through my church, which is my top priority, and I just never have much money, even when I think I will... Pray for a miracle in my finances! I am supposed to be having a specail weekened with my family (even got the days off) but I have hardly any money, then I indicated I would send money to Jerry. Agree with me for a breakthrough!

I will miss you, AW; be praying your computer gets fixed, Lynn; be praying for Chuck (I told you that was God talking to you, Lynn!), praying for your family, StarChilde and that you don't give up; praying Stacey goes to the movie and is changed, James; praying for you cgirl.

Sorry, if I haven't been around much, but I have been wearing myself out staying up too late on here. I will get back on here more when time allows, etc.

I am fighting the enemy's urgings just to end everything...I know that is a lie. I won't go into everything going on... I know God has my answers... I just want some good to start happening... I feel like I am drowning... I am sorry I let all down... so sorry I am not who I should be in Christ~ God bless all of you~ thanks for all the prayers everyone has ever said for me and my family~ you are all wonderful & I love my family in Christ here.



Dear Star:
You are not to blame...
Satan is to blame..
He deceived Eve then Adam
He brought sickness and death

Jesus came to erase what Adam did
That is why Jesus is called the second Adam
So Jesus could reverse the curse.

Father Your Word said we are redeemed from the curse.
Father Your Word said we are healed by the stripes of Jesus.
Father Your Word said "You are the Lord that heals us"
Father Your Word said "You sent forth your Word to Heal"
Father Your Word said Faith comes by hearing a Word from You
Father Your Word said Jesus Your son is the author and finisher of that Word
Father Your Word said "If my Word abides in you ask what ye will and it shall be..."

So Father in Jesus name I pray.
I pray for Star
I pray for Her Son
I pray for her family

I pray Jesus by the Holy Spirit send forth faith to move this mountain.
I pray Jesus by the Holy Spirit send forth His word to heal, save and deliver.
I pray Jesus by the Holy Spirit send forth His Glory so the world can see you are the same today, yesterday and forever.

Father I pray Your Holy Spirit come down right now and touch Star so she knows how much you really love her. Let her see how You feel in compassion in this situation.

Now Father I thank you for all the miracles we will see done in Your Name by Your Word.

Father we pray all of this in Jesus Name. Amen.

Lord Jesus, I ask that You come to Starchilde and return what has been taken away by the enemy. Father heal all those in her family that have been stricken. Lord return a clear mind to Brian and a strong body to her and bring Brendan to Your side and give him strength in his limbs and power to overcome the cerebrial palsey. Father continue to bless KaeLyn with the power to encourage and love. Lord increase the faith of this whole family and turn their trials into a witness for Your Kingdom to all those who see them. Lord bring victory to this house and let them rise above all of us in the blessings which are poured out upon them. Lord there is nothing You can't do. In Jesus' name I ask these things, Amen.

Wow... such an outpouring of love... I am sitting here crying with reading all the wonderful and beautiful prayers for us... I have not been getting any e-mails saying there were even any new posts on here, but something told me--"go look Suzanne, see for yourself*...that something was from God... to inspire me, to let me know that I am not insignificant in God's eyes, and that I am worth something. Thank you cgirl,Kathy, jeri, JG, James for the prayers...they spoke right to my heart.
I'm not giving up, even though the enemy would like me to think that, and to feel that. I know we ALL have VICTORY in Christ Jesus. I KNOW IT... I will not let the enemy take that away! I want to share a poem written by Dietrich Bonhoeffer in Nazi concentration camp right before his execution. Although it is typically read at funerals, I think it applies to the absence of being away from anyone that we love. I only had the first part of this poem also, so finding it was a real blessing to read all of it.

The Space
By Dietrich Bonhoeffer

First: nothing can make up for the absence of someone whom we love, and it would be wrong to try to find a substitute; we must simply hold out and see it through. That sounds very hard at first, but at the same time it is a great consolation, for the gap, as long as it remains unfilled, preserves the bonds between us. It is nonsense to say that God fills the gap; He doesn’t fill it, but on the contrary, He keeps it empty and so helps us to keep alive our former communion with each other, even at the cost of pain.

Secondly: the dearer and richer our memories, the more difficult the separation. But gratitude changes the pangs of memory into a tranquil joy. The beauties of the past are borne, not as a thorn in the flesh, but as a precious gift in themselves. We must take care not to wallow in our memories or hand ourselves over to them, just as we do not gaze all the time at a valuable present, but only at special times, and apart from these keep it simply as a hidden treasure that is ours for certain. In this way the past gives us lasting joy and strength.

Thirdly: times of separation are not a total loss or unprofitable for our companionship, or at any rate they need not be so. In spite of all the difficulties that they bring, they can be the means of strengthening fellowship quite remarkably.

Fourthly: I’ve learnt here especially that the facts can always be mastered, and that difficulties are magnified out of all proportion simply by fear and anxiety. From the moment we wake until we fall asleep we must commend other people wholly and unreservedly to God and leave them in His hands, and transform our anxiety for them into prayers on their behalf:
With sorrow and with grief…
God will not be distracted.


Although I cannot say that I am fearful or anxious due to Brendan being gone, I have been assured and reassured that he is getting good care...the bottom line is I MISS HIM. I want to be with him,I want him to be with his family, where he should be. I am going to pray about bringing him home despite my physical limitations... if I am not on this board praying as I have been, I am going to really seek God, because I know what I am going through is not due to Him... and even tho some is from the enemy, some is also from me... and that is what I need to pray about,that is what I need to deal with, and have God help with that as well. God bless all of you wonderful people~

Star, don't play guilt games. You are not a bad mother for putting him in this home. You need to take care of yourself or you're no good for anyone else. I will be praying God shows You what He wants in all of this and gives You peace.

I got a financial breakthrough! Thanks for any prayers. My Dad is giving my sis, sis-in-law and I $45 so we can do something this weekend (we are staying in a hotel, so we can all get a break). Originally, we were trying to get my Mom there (that was my Dad's plan). But even though she said "No," to going, my Dad gave us some money towards doing something. Now, I can give to anointed.net AND go to a hotel (they are running a $50 a night special in a hotel with hot tubs IN the room!!! I know 'cause I used to work in the restaurant there).

I have been seeing so many awesome breakthroughs on this site and personally since coming on here!!! Praise the Lord!!!

MaryTemp said her husband was saved after watching "The Passion of the Christ"!!! NOW, THAT IS A BREAKTHROUGH!!! That is the first fruits (that I've heard of) as a result of my prayers for God to save people through this movie.

I saw the movie today, and the anointing was burning in my feet there and even stronger afterwards. This movie is just SO -- of God!!! The anointing is tingling into my feet, now, as I type this.

hi everyone.

Starchilde don't be too hard on yourself. Like Jeri said you have to take care of yourself. Try to visit Brendan as much as you can. If you are worried about his care try dropping by unexpectedly to see what is going on. I'm keeping you all in my prayers.

Ok I got part of my computer problems fixed. But I still have a problem with my ActiveX controls. When I try to go to microsoft to get my windows updates I get a message saying that my active x controls prohibit something from being run on that page and the page may not display properly. I can't remember the entire message now. And my active x controls are set to the default setting which is what microsoft updates page says they should be set at. It is also causing me not to be able to access other pages like checking the status of my tax return and basically any page that i have to put in personal info on. I hate to crash the computer when that is the only problem but I need to be able to get my updates. So if anyone knows any fixes to this let me know.

Sad news; Brendan's in the hospital with pneumonia, top lobe of his left lung. Am considering removing him from the group home. Yesterday (Fri.) morning the nurse called to tell me his temp was over 100. He had the flu Wed. after we visited & also was very tired Thursday, more than usual. I called an hour after the nurse called & talked to this one worker there who kept telling me, everyone was overreacting, that Brendan was fine, that they were not taking his temp for another half hour, but I should just settle down. When I called back, his temp was lower than normal, & the same person went on and on about how everyo
