Interruptions,Serving and Sacrificing

Throughout the ministry of Jesus Christ these three things defined His Actions- He allowed people to interrupt Him so that He would serve others, this of course meant for Him much sacrifice including a sacrifice like none other, literally making Himself the sacrificial lamb for God. This He calls us to also, He calls us to be readily available to heed the many promptings to be His Eyes,hands and feet to cast His compassion into the lives of others, in the doing we sacrifice ourselves, our time and our worldly ways & needs, He gives us a white stone with a new name written upon it, in return He provides us with the banquet of His eternal riches, and He doesn't wait for us to join Him in heaven, He gives them to us now, He literally brings heaven to earth equipping us with ALL we need for Him to transform a world and draw people to Him. When we do so we no longer are of this place, we walk in His Boldness doing greater things than He. As we walk each day in His way He gives us unlimited opportunities to reach others with agape love. The Free Wheelchair Mission is a vehicle to take that love not only around the globe, but to take it to those who walk our neighborhoods and pass through our communities. Recently God sent Gabriel Cordell and His Documentary Team straight into Wheeling WV. I encourage you to check out his amazing inspirational trek across America, at www.rollwithme.org Gabriel Cordell (born Suheil Aghabi)was born in Tripoli, Libya and migrated to America where he was tragically confined as a paraplegic to a wheelchair. Gabe has these words about the reason he ended up confined to a wheelchair "My accident was not an accident, it was God's plan for my life, Limitations do not define me, nor should they define you, whatever your situation always believe that it is where God wants you to be, and from that place you can change the world" Gabriel rolled out of Santa Monica Pier headed for West Hampton, N.Y. and we welcomed Him into our community, supplying Him and his seven person team with lodging,food and fellowship and love. In return, as we allowed ourselves to be interrupted, we witnessed the unstoppable power of God to inspire His people as Gabriel witnessed His heart in our midst. I spent 3 solid days with Gabe and his team and I can tell you that he represents YOU... Gabe is an average guy... one who serves and sacrifices so that we may see the face of God... in each of us is that very potential..the time has come for YOU to let it change the world.

Jesus said, "Give and it will be given to you. A good measure,pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use , it will be measured to you." Luke 6:38

HOW IS YOUR LAP ? MAY IT BE 'SOAKED' WITH A MEAURE LIKE NONE OTHER FLOWING THOUGH YOUR LIFE WITHOUT LIMITAIONS. !

A Hurting World Needs "YOUR" Witness....A Witness of HIS LOVE.....

As I thought about writing this post today... I became OVERWHELMED at that very thought..As I begin to transfer the 'imprints' God stamped on my heart these past three days into words on a page, I know that in my humanness will be unable to paint a vivid enough picture of what God has done, but for sure the perfectly arranged encounters He placed me in with His people and the witness of His Love empowered by the POWERFUL,POWERFUL presence of The Holy Spirit at the East Ohio United Methodist Annual Conference YAC (youth area conference) at Lakeside on the shores of Lake Erie unmistakeably define a God of Miracles,Signs and Wonders. For me to even be there was a mighty work of His Hand, I had spoken at two small United Methodist Churchs In Ohio a year or so ago, sharing about God's Love being taken directly to a hurting world in the form of the Free Wheelchair Mission. One day a few weeks ago the pastor of those churchs approached me sharing that she had a youth group of nine young adults who had never been to YAC and there was noone willing to take them, well....God knew that there was...so on Friday we all piled into my church van and headed to the lake. It's funny because the Pastor told me these words, she said "I am sure that God will provide you an opportuniy to witness" -- Was that EVER an understatement... and as my opening sentence said, There is simply no way to put it into words...It is stamped so deeply into my heart that releasing it can only be done by continuing to follow Him and His promptings and invitation to join Him in redeeming a lost hurting world... This HE Commissions each of us.. We are to Witness in the context of community, His Community, we are to Love others as HE Loves us, and HE WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN IN POWERFUL, LIFE TRANSFORMING WAYS. Being able to bring young people to Jesus this weekend literally broke my heart as I was able to stand before the multitudes and proclaim His Love and Grace, and minister in small groups and individual encounters. I invite you to contact me and hear the stories first hand, for they are stories of God using the most unlikely people as His MIGHTY Insturments to draw people to Him in profound ways. THIS MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS IS WHAT THE WORLD INDEED NEEDS..............YOUR WITNESS IN WORD AND ACTION OF HIS MIGHTY, MIGHTY,LOVE.

Still Waters-Lush Valleys- Hovering Spirit of God

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Genesis 1:2 I cannot begin to put into words or even imagine what God is at task doing, but I do know that it is mighty and it is with devine purpose and it involves you and I and a four letter word....Love....His Agape Love. When the Power of The Holy Spirit is at work, no longer hovering over us,but rather dwelling in us and working through and from us... Things happen, lives are touched, people and churches and nations are transformed,and it all starts with That Blessed Hovering Holy Spirit which when unleashed by God through the way we live our lives...will give a people that promised All Power and Authority to do greather things than He. I would like to share some of the profound messages God has spoken to me since I took my pajamas off Sunday afternoon after church and headed back into the world to let God weave the new church, His Complete Body of ALL Peoples. Keep in mind that I have no skills, no special education, no abundant resources to offer.....But as I told my congregation.... That is who God wants, and He wants YOU now, and He wants you in your pajamas, your underware, your raged clothes, your broken self in whatever form that is....be it alcoholism, addiction, divorced, mentally challenged, emotionally challenged, lonly, lost, desperate, jobless, homeless, gay, or perhaps the seemingly so ordinary, the church goer, the believer, the one who goes to church and is masked by the ways of the world, yet deep in the fiber of their being, they desire to Be Raw and Honest and Stand Out for GOD...Even if that means standing alone....Trust me.... You may think you are alone.. and in human terms, at times you will be... But as you step out in faith and live the red letters of the bible and model your life after Jesus and all He said in the Sermon on The Mount He takes this seemingly aloneness and He Becomes YOUR Bride and He Begins to change the world through YOU. My prayer for the people of God is that they experience a day similar to the one I did yesterday... and through God's Grace do most days. I beleive with ALL my heart that sharing God's Revelations is essential to drawing a hurting world to Him, so emerse yourself in This brief story of the message God reaffirmed to me yesterday and realize that He Reveals these things when we do but 3 things...Love Him with all our heart, Love others with all our hearts, putting their EVERY SINGLE Need before ours and that we report to where God is at Work, Join Him in His mission to transform a lost world.... Yesterday morning with a heart full of joy and a night full of prayer for a couple of specific people with needs, I arose and went to Liza's Place, where people lie waiting for the end of this mortal life, and I was blessed to be showered with God's Graces as I connected in touch,prayer and conversatuon with those dying as well as family, staff and doctors, I was counting as I was preparing to leave and I interacted powerfully with 16 people,16 souls God allowed me to reveal His Love to. I bet He has given you that many if not more....NEVER walk past someone without sharing the Peace of Christ... NEVER.... As I was grabing a 'Free' Coffee for the ride whereever God was to call me, my phone rang...It was God... In the form of a friend Adam...Who offered to buy me coffee....Of course if you know me and you wave people and Coffee in my face... Im there..24/7. What occureed the rest of the day was so powerful and such a revelation. As Adam and I had coffee and visited with so many people on the porch of one of our favorite cafes God plucked us up and put us in that Wood Truck,(Old Woody, He now has a purpose, God revealed a need for him and Woody steped up and said "Here I am Lord take me, use me" God I Love Woody's Heart! For some devine purpose God delivered us 3... Woody, Adam and I to a place where I stood in awe of what He was showing these eyes... It was a lush valley, a literal earthly valley yes, full of growing vegetables, and shinig hillsides and radiant sunshine and dirt, the stuff we came from... As we stood there with old Woody, The Power of The Holy Spirit rained down on us and in Prayer and Thanksgiving we cried out amidst His sunshine for revival, revival of this Valley, a raining down on us of that Hovering Holy Spirit of God which He told us about in The Book of Genesis. God is speaking and He is leading us through those still waters, (Which looked like flowing waters when Adam yelled "hit the gas John, You can make it to the other side of this creek") With all assurances I thought to mysef, I don't see it happening, I see us being washed away... But I was willing to Hit that gas..to stand alone for Him so that He could stand out and reveal a lush valley on the other side of that water which would reaffirm in me the Mission He has laid on my heart, that from tis Place, from this valley, from Your Heart and mine... God is going to bring His Kingdom to Earth and Love will flow like a river and carry us each directly into the Mighty Palm of His Hand. How do we/you do that...ah so simple my friend.... I challenge you to an experiment..Take a day and go into the world, and in a concience effort bless people all day long, you dont have to have any special tools or resources, use HIS HEART...The one HE has Given you...Open it and God will fill it and you will empty it and sure......People will be blessed...BUT MY DEAR DEAR BROTHER AND SISTERS YOU WILL RECIEVE A NEW HEART.... A NEW NAME..... AND YOU WILL WANT FOR NOTHING....BECAUSE YOU WILL HAVE THE ULTIMATE EVERYTHING.... THE HEART Of OUR BLESSED JESUS CHRIST....LORD OF OUR LIVES.. Come and see a Man who knows my every tought.... If you are intimidaed to go it alone, reach out, we are assembling teams and groups to "Bless the world as The Church on the Move" We would be blessed to encounter God's Riches with you by emptying ourselves so that others may see with their own eyes the Living God that walks with us at every hour. We are after your heart God, and we will not rest until all experience that thirst and YOUR Abundant Water which causes us to thirst no more.

God's Hand was upon us June 9 and is this Very Hour ....

"Called to Nineveh"

Most people, if not all do not believe me when I tell them that as recent as a few years ago, I would have rarely got up out of 'my' pew on a Sunday Morning,and if I did, it would have been to slip along the side of the sanctuary bound for Tarshish, heading away from where God called and commissioned me to be...as I lay in the 'belly of that boat' safe in "my own little world" bound for the path of distruction, yet masked in a false worldly, deadly security I had no idea that God was to "rock the boat" and throw me overboard into the belly of a whale who would deliver me miles for "My selfish security" and spit me out onto the shores of Nineveh. BUT here I stand on those shores, beckoned, called, commissioned and empowered by the power of The Holy Spirit to proclaim the mysteries of faith... And how does God empower us to to Present the Gospel ?... Through Conversion indeed...a conversion that is pre-destined, one which is orchestrated by God through his People...People who share their faith,who live their faith, be it by word or action, but most assuridly done through people.....through YOU, and through me... We ought to let the Samaritan woman in John 4 be our mentor. She hadn't even been saved for an hour and she had already led a multitude of people to Jesus, "And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did" (John 4:39). All she did was tell others what Jesus did for her, and ask them to come find out for themselves... "Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ? Then they went out of the city, and came unto him." So all you need to do is tell /show others how precious Jesus is to you, and what He has done for you, we do this as Francis of Assisi so profoundly told us "Preach the Gospel at all times, using words when neccisary,"Indeed by the example of our lives they will know we are Christians by our Love..... I know from personal experience. There are many people out there, on the verge of suicide, or tired of life, or just LONELY for someone to care about them, and they are RIPE as Jesus said for the harvest... "Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest" (Luke 10:2). Then there are those people who are doing fine in life, but in their heart they desire the truth, like Cornelius in Acts 10--they're waiting for someone to open their eyes with the Truth of God's Word... "Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth" (1st Timothy 2:4). When we go soul-winning, we are bringing the Truth to them! The most important thing is to BE YOURSELF. People don't like phonies,and we are not comfortable being one, we are most comfortable when we are ourselves,"standing before the multitudes in our pajamas" dependant on others and on the one who calls us HIS CHILDREN. I think it would be much more appropriate to dress and act like Andy Griffin. Who doesn't like Andy Griffin? We need to be authentic, genuine,raw and open, we need to have and give an agape Love to all. Two people told me two profoud truths of late.... One person told me that "It only takes one authentic person to change the course of human history in the Universal Body of Christ" and the other person looked at me and asked," do you think you are called to Minister? following her question with what I am convinced was God's Voice...The words "I do" People will speak God's Life into you, and we are to speak it into others. ahhh the call to Nineveh... It is there for us all and calling us to its shores to proclaim God's goodness by the witness of our lives, You may be like most Heading East by sea with all your might as the storm rages around you, but rest assured, God is sending a whale to deliver you to the shores of a place here God's people cry out for conversion, salvation and the purpose for which they were created, a place where honey flows like water, and His Goodness and Mercy follow us for all the days of our eternal lives. Keep a keen eye for that whale, he comes in many forms, but all for the purpose of rescuing you from yourself and placing you on the narrow path leading to eternal joy. Choose the right fork in the road, God will lead you to it and when he does He will see you through it, and wallk with you as you are His witness to the ends of the earth. I Thank God for Sunday June 9th, for seeing His Power and Might come to earth in profoud ways,and I thank God for some specific people whom He has used to reveal Himself. Were it not for His Voice through one of His Precious, I would not be writing this Blog, I lift up that person as being one of His Chosen, who He tells us about in Matthew 22:14, and I pray a special prayer for the one who carried me in her womb and bore God's Fruit, My Mother who when I was but 9 was called Home on June 9th,(how ironic, how God Timed this June 9 date, that HE would choose to have His voice heard in the ways that He has) to be with My God and shine down on me this and all days with His Favor,Power and Authority to do "Greater things than He, for the Purpose of His Mighty Kingdom" May it ever be so for YOU. God has a plan for your life and knows when to send a whale, Arise Church Arise Read Psalm 139... We cannot run from God's Presence indeed.

Spending your Birthday with Jesus

I heard an incredible story very recently from a friend who flew half way across the country to spend her birthday on retreat alone with Jesus. We all spend a good share of time alone in solitude, sometimes lonely.. And we fail to use this time to talk with our creator & our counsel The Holy Spirit. But we can encounter an amazing 'birthday gift" by going on a spiritual retreat with Jesus as my friend did. I spend my share of time alone, but I never feel alone, I feel I am in a 'preparation state' where God 'conditions' & 'prepares' us for. ' battle' against the ways of the world. As I listened to my friends story of spending her birthday with Jesus, I thought, what a perfect thing to do, to honor the one who was the source of the fruit of our mothers womb, by drawing near Him in Praise & Adoration. I recalled doing something very similar when I was in High School, I struck out with a backpack on my birthday down an abandoned stretch of railroad tracks in my home state of Indiana, I remember it well, I wasn't looking to encounter God, but that's most often when we do, in the wind, the woods, the solitude of life. Although my friends 'Birthday with Jesus' is an amazing testimony to drawing near Him, we can all, and we must each travel to that place of aloneness with Him to be fed & nourished In the ways He will reveal to return to our world to impact lives with the tools He gives us. We can have those 'Birthday times alone' in the middle of our day or night, we can close our eyes & lift our hearts in focus on His Voice & receive a perfectly wrapped 'Birthday Gift' to deliver to a hungering world. Praise God that my friend came home with that 'Birthday Gift' God gave her & that she shared it with me. We must all go to The Father to receive His Gifts & then use these gifts to demonstrate His Love to one another. JESUS WAS ALWAYS SPENDING ALONE TIME WITH THE FATHER, WE ARE TO DO THE SAME.

Showers of Blessings

Today my head hit the pillow at 5:45 am after a usual night of work, at 9:15 my cell phone rang... Right on schedule! I had told a friend, Harry whom I had called to house the touring cyclist Bill, which God had put in my path, to call me when Bill was ready to ride out of town. So jumping up and wiping the 3 hr sleep out of my eyes, I hit the road. Bill was near ready to leave Harry's house, so I headed to Tim Horton's for a Coffee and an eye opener! As I stood in line, the man in front of me spun around and gave me a surprise hug!! (A joy for anyone) I am a hugger, so its nice to get one back here and there! The man proclaimed, "Your John!" To which I said yes! And you are? After exchanging intros... The man said these words, "I was in that funeral chapel yesterday when you addressed those people and brother, you hit the nail on the head!" Stunned I was indeed, I told him to call me and we would have lunch soon, walking to the car and driving to get my bicycle to escort Bill out of town, My short nights sleep faded and I felt fully rested and my heart and eyes cried as I could literally feel HIS showers raining down on US His Children... Meeting Bill at the office, I grabbed a bike and together we rode to Bethlyhem where I bid him farewell in word and prayer and as I rode back to my car alone, I KNEW that each and every raindrop which pounded my body represented the amazing people God has brought into my life, some like Bill ever so briefly, but ALL forever stamped on my heart as HIS, My Blessed Redeemer's Gifts of Eternal Showers of Blessings... LET HIM RAIN ON YOU, LET PEOPLE INTO YOUR LIFE and GIVE THEM YOUR HEART OF GOD"S UNBRIDLED RICHES.. The Love in You is not yours, it is HIS and it belongs rained down on mankind.... Ezekiel 34:26 I will make them and the places surrounding my hill a blessing. I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing.

We Start in Jerusalem

WOW - Today was amazing seeing & being apart of God's Activity. I was blessed to attend the funeral of a friend and publicly eulogize him in the presence of over 100 people. Very Powerful feeling God and the Power of The Holy Spirit in that place, and to proclaim HIS Presence. Earlier in the day I received a phone call from a touring cyclist riding from San Francisco to Virginia Beach for a Christian Based Woman's Shelter in Indianapolis. You can check out his website here: http://www.ridingforhope.com He was worried that calling me on such short notice for lodging might be a problem. I told him what we ALL need to be helping others with needs.... I said "Bill,relax & call me when you get into Wheeling, we can serve any need at anytime for anyone." As we follow the example of the life,teachings & witness of Jesus Christ God brings these people & these needs to us. We find that indeed in the giving of self we are blessed WITHOUT measure. I am looking forward to seeing & serving Bill & His Mission to touch lives in Indianapolis. THAT IS HOW ONE SHARES THE LOVE OF JESUS TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH, By touching lives here at home, May it be so for YOU. We start with our own backyard, our JERUSALEM & God Blesses the world through our lives from there. Acts 1:8 "BUT YOU WILL RECEIVE POWER WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT COMES ON YOU, & YOU WILL BE MY WITNESS IN JERUSALEM,AND IN ALL OF JUDEA AND SAMARIA, AND TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH."

Connecting with God's People is Connecting with HIM

Time for a 'Post' ! I am glad to say that I am improving, it has only been 3 days since my last, rather than 13 months! The last 3 days have been like most days....Filled to the gills with His Wonders and His Ways. Sunday I was blessed to return to a church in Ohio that I had previously spoke at, I was contacted by the Pastor 2 weeks ago and told this very typical story, a story of need, and one of opportunity! It seems that the youth group from this church had been invited to the Ohio United Methodist Annual Conference for 3 days beginning June 14 to attend conferences and a youth rally. The problem was that they had no adult leadership willing to drive and chaperon the group. The Pastor told me on the phone that if these kids did not get to go to the conference and be with youth from Ohio that she feared she would loose them from the grip of God, she shared a couple of compelling individual stories of these kids with me and my heart broke... broke to the point of action.. I have learned or rather more appropriately, The Father has revealed to me that He will send you promptings, and when we are walking with Him, in His assurances and empowered by our counsel, The active living Holy Spirit, we are to respond to these promptings, they are INDEED small doorways which lead to large kingdom gates of unending blessings, I have walked through many and although these small doorways are a tight fit and uncomfortable to squeeze through, once through... there is no going back..you ascend a new glorious mountain each time. Knowing this, my response to 'promptings' which manifest themselves as needs..needs of His People, is usually a resounding YES..Here I am Father, use me. Thus was my response to this heart heavy Pastor. So, she invited me to worship with them Sunday and meet with the youth, which I did and as I humbly listened to the entire church raise up what I was doing to make sure these kids literally went to The Cross by connecting them to the greater body at annual conference, I confidently knew that I was witnessing God being raised up and offered these kids lives. I have no idea what HE has in store for us at annual conference, but I do KNOW that all we need do is show up and be willing members of His Body and He will reveal Himself in mighty ways. I was told that the UM Bishop in Ohio was in disbelief that someone for another conference was stepping forward to lead the group, I was also told that I would have an opportunity to give a witness while at conference...THIS I already knew :) It will happen every time we simply report to His Service with hands held high and heart wide open, that's how My God Works! I was blessed to pray over and for this church and the youth before heading back home, the whole way home my heart smiled,knowing that I was right where He wants us all, clay in His hands, an insturment of His WIll, called, commissioned and firmly planted as His Image to bring Glory to Him and Connect His Children, one to another and us His lost sheep to the shephard... This HE desires for each of YOU! YOU CANNOT LOVE GOD AND NOT LOVE AND SERVE THE PEOPLE HE PUTS IN YOUR LIFE.... HEAD OUT THROUGH THAT SMALL DOOR YOU HAVE ALWAYS FEARED AND GET READY TO BE TRANSFORMED FOR ALL OF ETERNITY... GET UNCOMFORTABLE, JESUS TOLD US HE WOULD SEND US THE COMFORTER,TO BRING US COMFORT...WE HAVE BECOME TO COMFORTABLE AND THUS WE MISS THE ARRIVAL OF THAT BLESSED COMFORTER, THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHO EQUIPS US TO DO GREATER THINGS THAN HE. Matthew 22:36-40 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets"

It is Indeed a God Thing....

Well Hello Blog,I am embarrassed to say that my last post was March 19,2012 ! Over a year ago! I created this blog in the Fall of 2010 when I received a 'sign' from God, a prompting, a revelation.... What was revealed to me was that I actually had something to contribute to others! That's something that we all yearn to have... A Gift which we have been given to impact lives. In the absence of finding that gift we all to often get caught up in the ways of the world and miss our true destiny, the reason we were created, to serve others and impact lives for Kingdom purposes. I cannot begin to share how discovering that gift literally changes ones life, but it opens up doors which I never thought would ever have existed for me. My journey began by being a spokesperson for the impoverished disabled people around the world without mobility. That's how I describe it in words, but to get the real impact of what that means you have to 'go to the ends of the earth' and see that need, and no better place to do that than from ones computer by visiting the www.freewheelchairmission.org website. That is where my journey began, but in God's magnificent plan it hasn't stopped there, serving has become a way of life. People are hungering for a purpose, they are thirsting for what only God can give them, and by His divine plan He chooses and commissions us, His Children to be His disciples, and draw people to Him, and we do that by being His Image...Obeying the two greatest commandments..to Love God and Love others, including the seemingly unloveable. It is not easy and it is not without risk, God asks us to sacrifice, and to walk humbly and dismiss pride from our lives. He calls us to radically Love one another,doing that sometimes costs us things and relationships, but God's Will always prevails and in the end people see past you and they gaze into the heart of Jesus. God makes it happen, I have witnessed it over and over again. When it looks like the world struggles to adapt to His Love, we must take heart and let God do His work in others lives,He makes it happen, we do nothing but become a vehicle of His use, and that will be the greatest thing anyone can do with their lives. You wake up one day and your life is full, your resources are limitless, the blessings in your life abound, and it all happens when we do small things with GREAT Love. I pray that we all do that in BOLDNESS and CONFIDENCE. I am so blessed to resume writing, and I would not have done that were it not for a "sign" that I received..a sign delivered from a dear friend, a word of encouragement to 'blog again' Never discount the power of your words, He gives you the ability to 'speak life' into people. Thank God He has done that to so many people whom I have encountered.We must never stop placing others before ourselves and taking the time to "toss" them a little of God's Love. You can change someones life with a word, a hug, a song,a phone call, a note, a simple gift or a random act of kindness, it will shock some people, we are so not used to receiving it..but do it anyway, in time you will be blessed! Praise God! The ability to do that was given to each of us, it ALL belongs to HIM and He readily gives us more of whatever it is our heart desires, when we empty ourselves of this world and seek His will with all of our Heart,Soul and Mind.. Do it now and do it often and you will find that it flows from God trough you night and day in humanly unimaginable proportions. DO ALL THE GOOD YOU CAN,BY ALL THE MEANS YOU CAN, IN ALL THE WAYS YOU CAN,IN ALL THE PLACES YOU CAN,AT ALL THE TIMES YOU CAN,TO ALL THE PEOPLE YOU CAN,AS LONG AS YOU EVER CAN..........Keeping in mind that today your very life could be demanded of you... Don't waste a second. The world is in need of what YOU and I have to give, and we can only give it when we do as He commands..GO into the world, and Follow Him. Bless His Holy Name, Abba..Our one true Father.
