I would like to request prayer for a nice lady I know, her name is Edi Reed. She doesn't have a voice box. I have never asked what happened, but I bet it a cancerous situation. For the last 5 years I've known her, she speaks through a mechanical device, that sends out sound waves; looks like a microphone, she holds it on her chest and attempts to speak. It's very frustrating for her, and emotional for us who see her try to do this. Last week they moved a device in her throat, and there is a huge hole in her throat covered by a plastic circle; in order for her to breathe sometimes, she takes it out and struggles. She comes to my office once a month, so that's when I see her. She's beautiful, and you would never know, unless you spoke to her, she covers it up with a scarf. Pretty amazing to me. I think she is Jewish by religion, but she's been receptive of my cards and notes and always tells me she loves me. I'm so moved by this lady, may God restore her voice and give her a new voice box. I don't even think she knows it's possible with God, and I can't force God on her.
Thanks! Maggie
God Bless

For Edi
Matthew 19:26, Psalm 6:9     Thank You Lord that with You all things are possible. Thank You Lord for Your great mercy & love, and that You hear our prayers. We lift up Edi to You for Your healing touch. We know that You are a God of wonders and miracles. Pour our Your mercy, love and healing on Edi, on her voice. Continue to work thru Maggie to draw Edi to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank You Lord for Your grace. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Seek His Face

1 Chronicles 16:11     Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.

Psalm 105:3-5     Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice. Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he has done...

These verses remind us of the importance of seeking the Lord because ... our strength is found in Him ... in His grace & mercy ... our hope is in His loving presence and in seeing Him face to face, knowing Him even as we are known by Him.

Strong Tower
From A Promise and a Prayer

Psalm 91:14-15     "Because he loves me," says the LORD , "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him."

Proverbs 18:10     The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

What do you do when you find yourself in circumstances that threaten to overwhelm you? When we find ourselves gripped with fear or worry in the night, agonizing over a wayward child, thrown off course by tension in the home, plowed under by discouragement, or immobilized by a voice that says, "Who are you to attempt great things for God?"

These verses give us a clue and a strong promise. When overwhelmed, He is your only safe place. Camp out on these promises, call on His name, and watch for either a change in your attitude or your perception of the circumstances.

Child of God, these promises, give us firm footing and the assurance that we have coverage - in the Lord Jesus Christ. So... cling to these promises. God our Father, would have us learn to call more quickly on the name of the Lord for help.

1 Chronicles 16:8     Give thanks to the LORD , call on His name; make known among the nations what He has done.
Lord, help each of us acknowledge Your name. Thank You that as we do this and call on Your name, You will answer us, You will be with us in trouble and deliver us -- because we love You. Glory be to God! Let us share what You have done for us.

Strong Tower
Newsboys

Strong and mighty -- Strong to save us
Like a fortress -- Never failing

Strong in battle -- Strong in kindness
When we stray, Lord -- You're strong to find us

When the winds come hard against us
You are steadfast, You are true
When the ground beneath us trembles
Your foundation never moves

Strong tower -- High and glorious
Strong tower -- Mightly in love
Our refuge -- Our defender
Strong tower -- Lord above

Strong to lead us -- Through the shadows
Strong to carry -- All our sorrows

When the enemy surrounds us
Closing in as darkness falls
Though his armies rage against us
They can never scale these walls

Your are my shelter, my shield
You are the home I could never deserve
Here I will serve, ever under Your gaze
Here I will serve, ever singing Your praise

Facing the Tomb
From Sheila Walsh - Waiting in the Dark

Matthew 26:42     He went away a second time and prayed, "My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done."

Facing the Tomb

Kneeling in a garden, weeping on you own,
longing for the play to change,
a rewrite for a tomb,
choosing in the darkness to play it to the end.
I come to you
who surely knows how hard it is to bend.
But bend I will into this wind
no matter how I ache
and trust that in the worst of times
you will not let me break.
I get up off this dusty floor
and set my course for home,
safe in the truth; I'm not alone --
because you faced your tomb.

Thank You for the Lord Jesus Christ who surrendered His will to face the tomb for us. Help each of us follow His example and yeild to Your will, oh Lord, even if it means facing a tomb. Help each of us to know that You are with us - no matter how dark it gets and Your will is always best. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Jesus' Prayer
From Guideposts by Shari Smyth

John 17:15     My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.

Jesus tried to prepare His disciples for the longest Saturday of their lives. He told them He'd be gone. He told them they'd be grieving, while the world rejoiced. "But your grief will turn to joy," He'd promised. Over and over, like a good teacher, He'd told them these things in different ways. In Gethsemane, He'd urged them to pray "that you fall not into temptation." But exhausted and sorrowful, they couldn't. So Jesus prayed for them. And all during that long Saturday when they huddled behind locked doors, weak, scattered and unbelieving, they were held in the grip of Jesus' prayer.

It was December. Moving day was weeks away. I was living with boxes, in a twilight zone of not here, not there. I was numb, hurtling toward the unknown. What was out there for Whitney and me, for my daugther in rehab? Waiting in the dark.

On one sleet-ridden day, I sat in a pool of lamplight on the dusty floor of our attic, sifting through memories of our four children, now grown and scattered. In addition to our daugther in rehab, there was a daugther in Oregon, a daugther in Hawaii, and a son in Maine. "Don't worry, Mom. We'll come visit," they promised. Among their treasures I found a few old Sunday school pages, Bible scenes with childish crayon scribbles that rendered them priceless.

I traced a yearning finger over an orange Jesus motioning a purple Zacchaeus from a sycamore tree. A red Jesus, arms and lap full of multicolored children; His timber-broen hair brushing little, uplifted faces; His eyes, even through the crayon, shining with love. Then I catch my breath. A praying Jesus, scribbled in black, kneeling at a rock, crayoned dots of red for the blood He sweated. Nearby are the sorrow-laden, sleeping disciples, ghostly white, with no color. I feel myself one of them - blank and unable to pray. Yet I am held in the grip of Jesus' prayer, of His praying for me still. I am protected.

This is Cindy's friend Rusty. She is at the hospital with Zach. He had a really bad seziure on Friday. It lasted an hour and 1/2. He is still out of it. He responds to the medical staff testing but won't talk to her..he justs wants to sleep. She says the Dr's "snowed" him. They gave him 3 or 4 different meds before it would stop. It scared the the heck out of Cindy because it was full body jerking this time. They are saying he has to stay in the hospital until Tuesday.

I am sure Cindy will give you guys more details...you know how she likes to babble:)

But for right now keep both Zach and Cindy in your prayers and thoughts.

Please pray for my friend Flo's daughter - Cindy. She is a "special" adult living in a group home for years. She just battled an intestinal infection, lost an incredible amount of weight, and is unable to swallow food. They gave her a feeding tube a couple of weeks ago BUT she has now developed pneumonia. Cindy has never been able to speak but does recognize her Mom, Flo. Flo is extremely stressed over this situation as it's very difficult for her to see Cindy in the hospital very often. The hospital charges for parking & Flo, being a senior citizen, cannot afford the fees. Thank you.
Ruth

For Cindy & family
Jeremiah 33:6, Ezra 8:21-23     Nevertheless, I will bring health and healing to it. I will heal my people and will let them enjoy peace and security.

Let each enjoy this health and rest in Your peace - Your security, that is Yours alone to give. Lord, let Your grace fall upon each of them. Please involve the right people to help. Let Your gracious hand be upon them as they trust in You. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

God Will Move the Stone

Mark 16:4     When they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away.

On their way to the tomb, the women who sought to anoint the dead body of Jesus worried in v3:

"Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?"

There really was no way for them to roll the stone away themselves - yet they kept going. They kept moving forward - doing the Lord's work - on the darkest day in history.

We too must keep going - even if it's dark and there seems to be a big stone in the way. This passage gives us hope - we can be sure of the Lord's assistance when we press on - when we keep going forward in His name and for His glory. We can know for certain that if God doesn't remove the 'big stone' in our path, He will help us find a way around it.

From Our Daily Bread...

In today's bright sunlight basking,
Leave tomorrow's cares alone -
Spoil not present joys by asking:
"Who shall roll away the stone?"
Oft, before we've faced the trial
We have come with joy to own,
Angels have from heaven descended
And have rolled away the stone.

We can go forward in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, undaunted by possible future obstacles because we know whatever we may face, God will move the stone.

Along with this idea and Easter is the bright morning star - it's often darkest before the dawn - when the bright morning star appears and RISES!

2 Peter 1:19     And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

SIX HOURS ONE FRIDAY
From Heartwarmers by Freda Fullerton

Hebrews 13:8     Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

SIX HOURS ONE FRIDAY

In six hours on a Friday,
Just an ordinary day.
The people of Jerusalem
Went about their way.

Some were going to market,
Others tending sheep.
Thousands to the Temple,
With sacrifices there to keep.

While the city bustled
On this ordinary day,
History was changing
In an extraordinary way.

Within six hours on that Friday
The earth trembled to the core.
The Temple curtain became torn
From the ceiling to the floor!

All around was darkness,
The sun refused to shine.
People groped about them,
As if they were blind.

On the distant hill
They heard an eerie cry
From the central figure,
Who was about to die.

My God, My God,
Why has Thou forsaken Me?
Came the pleading call
From the one upon the tree.

In six hours on that Friday
God claimed a Victory,
Over death and Satan
On a cross on Calvary,

But not all believe the story,
That it came bout this way,
That God works His best miracles
On an ordinary day.

___________

Thank You Lord for the miracle of the cross, and Your Son Jesus Christ. Help each of us remember that the resurrection follows the darkest point in history and that You still perform miracles on an ordinary day. Thank You that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today & always!

Praise: I want to thank everyone for their prayers for our family friend, Anna Porras. This morning all her feeding tubes and all other tubes were removed. Her health has been restored, and she sat up and asked for real food. The doctors and everyone around her could not believe seeing her up and healthy again. They all agreed that it had to have been a miracle. The doctors had expected her health to detoriorate and she would soon be with the Lord. But thank God for answered prayers, she's healthy and restored by the grace of God!!! Wow. Thank you again for all your prayers.

Don't Be Afraid

Isaiah 12:2     Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The LORD , the LORD , is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.

I saw this example in Our Daily Bread - I needed to be reminded of it today.

It was about someone's dog. Every time the dog's master came near with a noisy leaf blower - the dog barely took notice - the dog had no trace of fear. That's because the dog trusts it's master.

But let a stranger approach with a similar leaf blower, the dog does not tolerate this. The dog growls, barks and snarls in fear. It makes a big difference who is holding the leaf blower.

It is the same with us. Frightening circumstances are less troublesome if we trust the hands that control them. If our world and our lives were governed by a thoughtless and indifferent force, we would have good reason to fear. But the hands that control the universe - God's hands - are wise and compassionate. We can trust them in spite of our circumstances and not be afraid.

When fear and worry test your faith
And anxious thoughts assail,
Remember, God is in control,
And He will never fail.

He has numbered every hair,
So don't be afraid, your worth to Him is great.
Trust in the Lord and His care.
Be strong, take heart and on Him wait.

Praise: I just want everyone to rejoice w/ me for what the Lord has done for me today. Glory, Glory, be to His Name. The Lord God Almighty is ALL love.
The Lord Jesus Christ delivered my daughter from a very, very tragic car accident today, it's nothing short of a beautiful miracle. Her new car I had just bought for her stopped in the middle of a very busy beltway and series of cars hit her car. The ambulance came to retrieve a dead body, only to their amazement, found a shocked but very much ALIVE young woman in the car, WITHOUT A SCRATCH ON HER BODY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She was taken to the Hospital, ALL x'rays came out perfect. Nothing is broken, all in one beautiful piece.

Praise the Lord, He is worthy. Glorify Him, He is worthy. Sing to Him, He is worthy.

1 Chronicles 16:10, Psalm 3:3     Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

In Quietness and Trust

Isaiah 30:15     In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength...

What does it mean to 'be strong in the Lord'? This phrase may lead to an image of doing battle, standing firm - some action or activity on behalf of the Lord. Strength seems to imply this - action. Yet Isaiah says here, the real source of our power as christians is to be quiet, be still. In this stillness is your strength, to simply rest in quietness and trust in the presence of the Lord. Be still and know He is God - this is what it is to 'be strong in the Lord'.

So next time you're feeling weak or inadequate - remember your strength lies in quietness and trust, in the presence of the Lord. Be still and know He is God.

Stars & Care

Psalm 147:3-5     He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit.

Look at these verses! Think about how many stars there are in the universe - certainly more than any of us can count. Yet, the Lord, not only determines the number of stars, He calls them by name. Great is our Lord, the Lord who put the stars in place, who made heaven and everything on earth, whose understanding is infinite. This is the God, mighty in power & knowledge who knows and cares for each of us.

Psalm 147:1     Praise the LORD . How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise Him!

God is Ever Present!

Psalm 46:1     God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.

Have you ever looked back at a time in your life where you thought God was silent or not using you in any way? More than one person reminded me of this today. Things are not always what they seem! You may think God is silent or not see much evidence of Him at the time - but He is ever-present, always listens to your prayers and knows your every need.

So keep praying and look back at those times when you thought He was silent - you'll be surprised as I was that He was there working things out in His time and His way.

Romans 8:28     And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Dwell Within

Ephesians 3:16     I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.

Whatever we are facing in life, we as believers have a great advantage because the Holy Spirit is living within us. That doesn't mean we are always going to be successful in a worldly way, but it does mean that God gives us strength to accomplish the things He calls us to do.

Strength for Today

Give me strength for today, Lord,
Wherever I go.
Let no danger daunt me,
Whatever the foe.

Let no task o'ercome me,
No trial my heart fret.
I would walk with Thee, Lord,
In the path Thou hast set.

Let no burden o'ercome me,
Give me strength to bear.
Then I shall have courage,
Whatever my care.

Strength from Thy hand.

Thankful Hearts

Luke 7:36-50     Luke 7:47     ... her many sins have been forgiven–for she loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.

2 Corinthians 1:3-5     Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.

Think about this passage in Luke 7 where Jesus is anointed by a sinful woman. Simon is asked by Jesus, “Two men owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he canceled the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?”

Verse 47 contains part of Jesus' answer - the one with the bigger cancelled debt, will love Jesus more - will be more grateful.

This principle also seems applies to pain. Look at 2 Corinthians 1 - sufferings flow - but comfort from the Lord overflows. It seems the more pain there is the more comfort from the Lord there is AND the comfort is bigger than the pain. If you've ever experienced the Lord's comfort, you know this is true. This makes for an extemely grateful heart!

Psalm 106:1     Praise the LORD. {Hallelu Yah} Give thanks to the LORD , for he is good; his love endures forever.

The Lesson of the Loaves
From Faith Walk

Mark 6:30-56     Mark 6:50-52     Immediately He spoke to them and said, “Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid.” Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. They were completely amazed, for they had not understood about the loaves; their hearts were hardened.

It is easy to get so focused on an event that the significance is lost. Take Christmas, for example. Every December the challenge is to keep the significance in front of the event. Valuable lessons are lost if we don't.

That is what happened to the disciples at the feeding of the 5,000. They participated in the miracle and knew the event, but not its significance.

Immediately afterwards Jesus sent His disciples to Bethsaida by boat. Later, when the wind was against them and they were straining at the oars, they saw the remarkable sight of Jesus walking by them on the water. At first they thought it was a ghost. Jesus calmed them and climbed into the boat, and the wind died down.

Notice verses 51 and 52: "They were completely amazed, for they had not understood about the loaves." The lesson of the event was lost on them.

The lesson of the loaves is that Jesus has the power to meet our needs. His adequacy eliminates inadequacy and His ability replaces our inability. The voice we should hear in our times of fear is His as He says, "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid" (v. 50).

Cindy,
Perhaps they could pray for me and give me more patience at work. I have been bustin my behind for my new bosses and emotionally I am drained at the end of the day when I need patience the most to deal with Colton. Its just been pure chaos there and its wearing me down. All these huge accounts I am selling and no one to process them lol. I am on overload. Do you think they can say a prayer for Colton and I?
Thanks Carolyn

For Carolyn & Colton
John 14:1, Psalm 32:10     Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.
Lord, help Carolyn & Colton trust You with their whole hearts and souls. Thank You that as they do this and rely on You, Your unfailing love will surround them, they will not be troubled or afraid.
1 Chronicles 16:11, Isaiah 40:28-31     Lord help each look to You and Your strength; to seek Your face always. Thank You Lord that those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
