Saturday: Welcome to this great God's day! Family, friends, picnics, parties of all kinds, trips, car rides, golf cart rides , bike marathons across country, hikers.."all get-to gathers",,, Take God with you to do these.. for He is a bigger part of it all ,,, than you think!
FORTUNATE AND SAFE!
As I read more and more of these tornado's, I fall to my knees and thank God for sparing me, my love ones.. for our lives, for our houses, clothing , food and water, and being safe and together. I don't know why these things happen, but I do know that my God knows, and I will not doubt that He has a reason, and that reason is His, and we must accept these happening just as we do the good ones.. and some good,, comes from here, the testimony of a mother, a baby & 5 seconds for her to grab her baby, jump in a closet, and 10 seconds later, that is all that is left of her house,,that closet and her comment, was, God must have something else left in this life for her or the baby to do.. how true this is, for God does nothing,,, without a plan, and with this , the revealing of this to her,, now, and she knows it. Lots of other stories come from these tornados,, that ravished the south,,, and the Midwest,, I just ask that all our prayers include those that were hit,, and may God now heal, and have mercy , give them their needs,... and may we be ever so thankful for the touch we had being right at the side of one or two of these,, yes we were
BLESSED AND FORTUNATE TO BE SAFE!
God, thank You for our well being, and I ask that You now heal, and have Mercy on all the victims of these storms.. give them the relief and the things they need to re-group, and make new lives. amen
John HIcks
In awe of this destruction of such a power force as we have seen in all those paths of these tornado's.. and we ask if there is a God?... who else can produce these? Your are right! NO one! God is alive, and working,, just don't lose faith in what He does, for remember, it is His, and there is His reason,, you can bet on that!

OUCH!
Friday-TGIF: We have arrived to the day before our W/E, and I hope you had a great ride to get here.. and that you continue to ride easy and safe, and with God,, for if you rode in here with Him, then ride out to the rest of your life,, with Him also,, Never leave Him behind, He is the one who made the road, and don't forget that, ever!
Prayer Request: For all the tornado victims,, our pastors mother in Pell City , Al,, she lost a lot, and all the pictures I have seen are awful,, and the why, is Gods' why, not mine, for all I say, continue to pray for the restoration of the lives that have been spared.
Little Luke,,, result of the MRI, no abscess! No fever through the night,, keep praying,, mother gets to feed Little Luke for the first time ,, God bless Luke!
OUCH!
What was that? That little prick of a needle on my heel? It seems I feel this ever so often. I keep on walking, but there is that little something,, what is it? I just cannot get it out of my mind,, I have had this all my life... what in the world can it be.. there is never any infection, nor a mark, but the little nick of a thorn, a little bite , but no teeth marks,, but a small surge of a heart beat..
"Cursed are you above all the livestock and all the wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life. And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers, he will crush your head, and you strike his heel."
Genesis 3:15 NIV.
That little prick of a needle on your heel, is satan, he never gives up, as the serpent crawls and strikes man,, and that small surge in your heart is satan, always trying to get in, and the only thing keeping him out , is Jesus Christ, if you have called Him in.. have you? IF not, then do it.. so simple, just bow your head and ask, Jesus, tell Hm,,I come to you, will you accept me in your flock, I accept you as my Shepard in this life and beyond,, be my Savior, I accept you Lord as my own..Now you have the guard against that strike of the heel and the surge of the heart,, you are safe,, believe! That my friends is what it takes,, for in this day, the only way is through Him,, "I am the way, the truth and life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." John 14:6.
As you walk through this life , wear this ankle guard of life,,,
JESUS CHRIST!
God, thank You for giving us the way to you, Jesus, and His guard at our heels to keep the sting of the serpent at bay.. amen
John HIcks
I believe! I don't know very much, but I do know that Jesus is the only way,, I don't doubt, I thrive of Him, and I keep Him in my heart, what do you have in your heart? Check it out, and if He is not there, then stop and ask Him in,,, NOW! A choice of yours alone, don't flub it up!

BLESSED ARE WE
Thursday-Up and atta em! When you see the sunshine of a morning, just think, only one can change night into day, as great as man thinks he is,, this is a feat that only God can do.. and when your day is over, here comes the night, slow and easy,, into dark,, with a moon to see some, but time to rest.. yes, again, not from man, but from the love of a Great , Loving , Living God... given to you and to me.. to enjoy, so how about after reading this,, let's give God,, a thanks for it all...
Prayer Requests: For our pastor Terry Treadgill's mother, who has damage from the tornado that came through Alabama,, we do not know of the extinct of the damage yet , but there is damage,, she lives in Pell City, Al.
Also for all those involved in these tornadoes,,, in Alabama,, the pictures are awesome of these powerful tornadoes, and also in Georgia,Ark, Ok, Ms,... deaths, property destroyed.. business' disappeared,,, people hurt, without food, water, clothes, shelter,, Prayer needs to be first on our mind.. please pray, pray!
Request from Millie in Md... a friend of theirs, Sara's baby Luke was born April 13th, he's 2 weeks old yesterday. On Sunday night, he got a fever, and Sara and her hubby, Jason, took Luke to the hospital. He has Strep B Bacterial Meningitis. The doc said he'd be in the hospital for at least 2 weeks. Although he's been on IV antibiotics since Sunday, he developed a fever last night of 102º. They got it down to 99º this morning, using Tylenol. This afternoon, it's back to 102º
The doctor thinks Luke may have an abscess on his brain. They're going to give him an MRI, under general anesthesia, in a few hours to find out what's going on. It's dangerous to give a 2 week old baby general anesthesia, but they don't have much choice. Luke's having breathing problems as it is, so this is really going to be tricky. Please pray for wisdom & skill on the part of the anesthesiologist, doctors, and everyone involved. Please pray that the cause of this fever shows up and can be remedied easily. Please pray for Luke's healing. If it is an abscess, they'll have to drill into our grand baby's head. Sara is beside herself, and fear is trying to overwhelm her. Someone just gave me Romans 15:13. I'm trying to keep hoping, but Wow! This is some scary stuff. Please keep praying with us y'all.
BLESSED ARE WE!
Today, please stop,, examine yourself,, and if you have been missed by this bad weather,, or disease,, that has no age limit,, and with the news of war, death, people dying from their fight for freedom of life and religion.. stop , think how fortunate we all are, for all of these can strike in an instance,, and these things do not choose by race, wealth, country, or deeds of good or bad,, they come, like a ghost in the night,, they are here as you are wondering if they will ever get here,, so if you have been missed, then you have had a blessing, so treat it like a blessing... for at this time you have been spared,, and you need to thank God for the sparing, and you need to pray for those who were not! Missed from these then be thankful and know it ,
God Has Given Us this Blessing,,, Return with a thanks to God!
How long will he be merciful to this world?
God, I ask that you put your healing hand on those who have been in the path of these storms.. reason is not ours, but yours, and we will worship You as our knowing God, and not guess why or where , but ask only that you be with all those affected. amen
John HIcks
I am originally from Cullman, Al. and I can attest to these awful tornadoes.. and I am thankful this day for my Dad building us a storm shelter, and the remembering of the storms, and when not only would our family be in that storm pit,, but our neighbors as well,, that door was always open, and we saw this devastation of these storms, and we never want to be in one,, ever.. again, pray for these people ,, you can not imagine the turmoil they are in... PLEASE!

THEY SHOULD BE WORN OUT!
What ? Your knees,, from kneeling down and asking God to forgive our many, many sins. We should have patches on our pants from stopping and praying.. not just a short stop, nod and say thanks, even though it is better than nothing.. but we need to pray,, and pray for this worlds sins.. for if we don't ,, God is going to take it from us...for this world is getting more and more sinful.. and it is up to us,,YES, YOU AND ME,,, to spread the word, and start a trend turn back to God.. and yes,, WE can,, if the faith is there, and I have that faith,, so let's start with not one prayer each day,,, blessing of our food three times a day,,,but let's actually stop,, from our work, play, what ever it is we are doing,,, and pray, and pray in earnest for our sins, others' sins, and all the sins of this world to be forgiven, and accept them on us if it will save others, for He did!.. will you do this wilth me? Will you pray with me? Will you tell others of the great and glorious love of the Lord? Will you? Will you start
WEARING OUT YOUR KNEES?
Lord, I come, to You , asking forgiveness for all my sins, and the sins of this world.. amen
John HIcks
Knowing of the Lord, and accepting Him as Your Savior are two different things, for just knowing is not enough, we must accept Him all the way,, then walk with Him daily,, agree, or disagree? A choice of only you, can make,, so make it now... as you kneel to Him!

A MIRROR OF REFLECTION
Tuesday-As you climb out of bed this great morning,, you will have a choice to make, work for yourself, alone, OR work for God , and have someone at your side that is cool, safe, honest, and loving,, not burning , sticking with pins, putting out trip hazards, lying each breath, and non-loving to any,not even to his self... So I can only recommend, take the honest loving Jesus Christ with you, and then have a great time,, one you don't mind telling about , in public! Yes, I said in public.. can you brag on your "doings of the day" in public, UN-ashamed!
A MIRROR OF REFLECTION
YOU, are a mirror, whether you believe it or not. What you do, is you,, and when someone, reflects on you, it is an actually of you, as if you are looking at that very time, in a mirror.. One must remember, if it is done, it is done.. in a heated moment, or even in a slow, studied remark, or action.. it is done.. it is recorded, so be very careful what you utter, when the tongue comes in contact with the brain,,,
It is going to be reflected by our Master,, for you will set through a movie,, and it will not take long to look at. and it will all ,,,be about you,, a reflection of your life,,, and I ask this and only this,, when you are looking at this "life of you" movie at judgment,, will you have two things at that time? One, will Jesus be standing next to you ? Second, will one see the reflection of you and also, will one see a reflection of Jesus in your reflection of that movie over your life span? I am here to tell you,, and it is a truth,, if Jesus is not in the reflection of your "movie of your life" ,, then I can answer the first question ,, no, He will not..
What a terrible thought,, "no, He will not!" Can you really live with that ? I could not.. and can not... so if you have not asked Jesus to come into the rest of your life ,, then please do so.. so then can you answer both questions,, YES,, I can see Jesus
IN MY REFLECTION OF MY MOVIE OF MY LIFE,,,
& ALSO STANDING BESIDE ME, AT JUDGMENT!
Lord, Thank You for Jesus, and Your saving plan , made just for me, and for whoever calls upon Your Son, for the saving lifeline He provides for all of us, when asked.. amen
John HIcks
I have asked for Him at my side, &, I can see the shadow of Jesus as I go through this life,, so I know the answers to the questions above, how about you?,,, if you have to even think for a second of the answer's,, then kneel and pray Him to come to your side.. make the choice,, of a lifetime,and beyond... of Him beside you , forever and ever, and remember, you and only you can make this decision,, mom, dad, sister, brother, friend, no one can do it for you, only you can do this one! So how about it?

Monday: I have hidden eggs, and I have looked for eggs.. and we hide, looked, and ran and hopped, jumped, laughed out loud,, had a great day of fun,, and still in our hearts, we looked up,, and thanked God for His sacrifice of His Son, our Savior, Our Victor over Death, and The Cross,, that He died, & rose over death,, and that He played with us and these little children as we hide, hunted, ran and was so happy.. yes , believe it or not, but we know, He was right there with us, running, and hollering,, with the biggest smile of all of us...if you listened really listen you could hear, and feel..oh how happy , happy, happy!!!!

What we do on this earth is strictly up to us! Yes we do choose,, even though we think we are completely in charge, we are not.. but there is that one thing that we are in charge of completely,, that of our soul and its' designation after death... whoa you say, we are not in charge of that,,, God is,, yes , correct on both counts.. we must first accept Jesus,, make Him our personal Savior.. live under Gods' law.. then we have made the choice,, then God stands us before Him, reads our "book of life",, and makes the final decision, but before He does, ..we are allowed to use the decision we have made,, the one that will save us,, and that is to have Jesus, stand beside us, and let all the sins from that book be wiped cleaned, and then God makes the final decision,,that with Jesus at our side,,, we go into His kingdom.. yes , it is two decisions that come to one... but as the heading says, "upon this earth only for a short time", folks, it is a certainly,, we all are going,, and yes we are here only for a while,, and I ask, use it wisely.. make that decision now,, I can say no more on this at this time.. for I feel that , you either believe & accept, or you die, and burn.. simple as that.. and folks , it is your choice on how you use
THE TIME YOU HAVE ON THIS EARTH!
lORD, I ask for all to come to the Cross of Salvation, Jesus, and bow down, and accept Him as their Savior, and claim their place with YOU. amen
John HIcks
I have accepted, and I am not anywhere close to perfection,, I am so far off, I can not even see it.. but I do have my Jesus, and that is all I need in this world,,, and I do talk to Him daily, at times hourly.. how about you? Have you accepted? Are you using your time for Him or strictly for you,, deep down,, go ahead and answered this question, it is very important ,,, to you!
Look back on the body of this message, and you put the hi lites of red to where you think is needed,, see you are making a choice,, a choice of life!

Yes,,, folks He is not dead then, and He is not dead now,, and on this day +1 , 2011 years ago, He would rise up beyond that tomb of stone, and continue to be alive,,

Yes, this is the day that a lot of people,, including the apostles, where sitting, mourning the death of Jesus,, their Savior.. the day before He had been put to death brutally,, on a cross.. taken down, and put in a virgin tomb.. a big rock rolled over the opening.. yes buried. They had been told of Jesus' Resurrection,, but they all thought , Jesus is dead and gone.. not one of them, even Peter,, thought of tomorrow,, when that trumpet of the Heavens sounded, and up from that grave He will rise... yes folks , He might have laid there dead, but only for a short time,, for folks,, some did not then , and today do not,, understand and believe,, this man Jesus was and is the Son Of Our Living God,, and He will not die,,, but stand today for us , protect us from sin, and stand beside us in the Heavens Judgment in front of the Father.. Yes,,, folks He is not dead then, and He is not dead now,, and on this day +1 , 2011 years ago, He would rise up beyond that tomb of stone, and continue to be alive,,
THIS DAY, AND ALL THE DAYS HEREAFTER!
God, thank You for Your Son, Our Savior of life here, and the hereafter, for an eternity. Praise be to you,. for all comes from You.. amen

God's Sacrifice
For God so loved the world that he gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 NIV
What a sacrifice , I can say no more, but I can see the Cross, and I can see Him, Jesus, hanging on it in more pain than we can imagine, completely sin free, and yet, He still showed the great love for His Father and us, as He finished His Fathers Plan,,the start of saving us all,He utters this , "Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do..".. Love in the greatest, from Jesus, and our Father!
Almighty God, thank you for the ultimate sacrifice of your Son, for us all. amen

GOD IS WHISPERING,,,listen, listen
Thursday- Open those eyes, blink once, smile big,,then set up , slam those feet to the floor,,, rise , do a little dance ,, twirl around once,, then say these words,, Lord, thank You for this great day! How do you know it is already a great day? FAITH! FAITH! , my fellow friends and when you start your conversation off with God first,,, then all will fall in line,, try it! It's not too late to jump, twirl,, etc..............
Prayer Request: Keep praying for Tina,, no update yet, but I will let you know just as soon as I hear something.. and pray for all who are in need of Christ today..
GOD IS WHISPERING! listen, listen!
Do you ever hear this little voice that says to you don't do this , or go ahead , this is good, this is bad? When satan is pushing, and that is always,, you come to that point,, you start to lean , just a small lean,, it is not enough for anyone to see,, but you feel,, then you hear this little voice,, some call it conscience,, I call it the "whisper of God",,! It is a little device , implanted at birth,, kinda like sonar,, a caution beep of a voice... don't... . Yes this little device called a conscience,, beeps as soon as satan gets real close,, and God enters and gives you the choice, then and there,, YOUR, choice! You can continue, or turn back, stop in your tracks , not let it build farther... for if you continue, then satan has a bite in you, and he will hang on, and bite more,, then the whisper will be satans if you make that move to satan... and to get rid of this bite, you must call back on the Lord, for He gives you the chance to go with Him or satan,, but he is not like satan or any other,, for He stays beside you, with tears and hope, that you will make the right choice , and call back,, Jesus, please come into me, free me.. and folks , He will let a roar of laughter, you are instantly forgiven,, and He is right there, tossing satan on his can! Yes that quick and with that much love,,,, now why go to all that trouble,, just listen to the little voice,, and if you just aren't strong enough,, ask Jesus for some "strength",, He will inject you with His father,, (some "God Power") , and not only can you withstand satan,, you will be able to hear above the
"whisper from His lips"
God , thank You for whispering in the ears of all who read this, and my prayer is that all will listen and re-act to You.. and thank You for keeping my and their avenues open.. amen
John HIcks
Lord , thank You for answering so many prayers.. for there are so many whispers from our consciences here, for we have let satan too loose. I ask for You to forgive us, and push satan back into the fiery hole of his ,,, I call out to You,, for my forgiveness,, how about you? Have you,, and will you call out with me? Choice, and it is yours!
I have always said , satan will never be in caps,, for I do not believe he is a proper noun, in any lanuage,, today there are 11 satans in this letter.. and this computer screams out, I have 11 mis-spelled words.. how do you feel,, mis-spelled, or where it should be, in the lower case?

EYES, HANDS , MOUTH, ACTIONS!
All of the above are very important pieces of our body,, and we all need each of them to exist, but we could live without any one or without all of the above. Some have shown this as they have recovered from the lost of one or more of these parts of our body.
Doing without these is not what I am heading for this morning, but the use of them! Yes, the use of, not just having!
There are people out there in this world , that are lost, wandering in darkness,, feeling their way,,,bumping into all the things that satan puts as stumbling blocks ,, falling down, down deeper into sin as they go through this life... Deep down , they have this something, this knowledge or feeling of a hope, a step, a hand up, so to speak,, to rise up and out of this life, but,,, they just don't have the strength to rise.. for satan is a great weight to lift up and over.. and only one can remove this weight.. and this is where WE come in! Yes ,, now after a trip around the world with words,, let's get to the job of here and now... we see these sinners,, we have the hands to extend , and lift,,, the mouth to wittiness, and the actions to show of how happy a life can be with Him, rather than without! NOW,, I have said it,, but that does not make it happen.. no, but only you can do this.. only you, as a Christian,, can pray for the strength to respond when you see this person walking in sin,, and that you will speak,, testify,, don't be afraid of the ones around you,, for it may even reach them...Lets today,, talk to God, and ask Him to give us this strength to be a worker for Him,, let's be a handy man/woman... and let's be the one who gives the person that hand, that word, that sight , of how to remove that great weight of sin off of their backs,, yes the greatest of all weight removers of all,, Jesus Christ, that one thing they are reaching for,, so lets do be , starting today, now,, the
LOOKERS , REACHERS, TALKERS, ACTORS FOR
GOD AND JESUS!
Lord, thank You for these items we have to go out and use for You in conjunction with our everyday life,, for we know this life is really Yours, and we thank You for the use of it also.. amen
John HIcks
Trying to talk the talk, walk the walk,, show others, that I do believe in God, the only God, the Son, Jesus, the savior of my and your sins.. there is none other.. if you have not accepted Him,, do it now,, if you just need to re-devote your love for Him , do it today.. don't wait, don't waste the time.. now, your choice, and only yours....

Yes,, folks , there is poverty all around us,, if we can look beyond our own cares..
We are so blessed with enough thrown out of our kitchens,, each day , to feed the world.. yes feed the world, and we have to look in our cupboards and make statements like,, oh,,what do we have we can eat... our biggest two problems is trying to pick something out to cook for a meal,, and trying to fine a belt big enough to go around us(speaking from experience). It is time, folks , to think about others,, first,, then ourselves.. how about it, can we do it... lets' all start with prayer,,, the most powerful starter ever created,, and it hooks to the biggest vehicle of help there is in all of creation, for He is the creation.. so pray today for two things,, first: help those in need of food, clothes, and shelter.. and second: thank Him for our blessings of so much!
WE ARE ALL SO BLESSED IN THIS USA!
Lord, thank You for our many, many blessings of great wealth in our country, and I pray that we do not hoard these things, but share with all who need us,, and I ask for Your help with them also. amen

WATCH!
Friday-TGIF- As you blink open your eyes back to consciousness,, stop for just an instance, and thank the one who set up watching over you the entire night, and will go without sleep today also ,, to watch over you too... Have a great Friday!
Watch!
Don't you hate to see the weather report when they show all those boxes on the map,, flash flood watch, heavy thunderstorm watch, hail watch , hurricane watch, tornado watch!
All kinds of watches, to give you and I,,, a warning,, bad weather is coming! Take pre-cautions, be prepared.. make sure everything is "battened" down... and then pray for all to make it without damage, or hurt, or lost of material things and life..
NOW... how about the "watch" you have heard about all your life, if you are a Christian, and have been in a Church Sunday School and Preaching Service. We have been warned over and over,, and in our Bible when we read it... yes the biggest , most important "watch" you will ever hear of in this lifetime, and also this watch effects your eternal life also. It is a WATCH FOR JESUS,,, COMING OUT OF THE EAST SKY ,, ACCOMPANIED BY A HOST OF ANGELS.. AND THIS WATCH IS GOING TO TURN INTO A WARNING,, IF YOU HAVE NOT ACCEPTED JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR AHEAD OF TIME.. SO DON'T WAIT,, BE PREPARED,, BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES,, YOUR HATCHES BEING YOUR SOUL! ACCEPT HIM , IF YOU HAVE NOT.. NOW,, AND IF YOU NEED RE-ENFORCEMENT,, DO IT AGAIN.. HE DOES NOT MIND...
I wrote all of this in caps,, why?, because I felt like a warning of this great nature should not be handled lightly.. how do you feel? like you are ready? Yes, we all want to go to Heaven, just not right this minute,,,, but in reality,, we don't have the luxury to choose.. so listen to me, and listen to me now,,, look to the east and keep
WATCH!
Lord, thank You for our way out of this life, and into Your Heaven, You made for us all. amen
John HIcks
I have my eyes to the East.. where are you looking,,, up and easterly , I hope... choice is yours!

God gave His ultimate gift to us,,His Son,,,wow ,,,what a gift to give!!! Would any of us have that much love,,,to give a son or daughter??? Abraham did! God stopped him just as he was going to sacrifice his son to God...faith,,,and love, he had it. We say, we have that much love for God. I ask, do we? Really,,,well,,,what have we given back lately? Have you even spoke up for His name,,, and let people know that you believe in Him...Have you given thanks for today,,, and yesterday,,,all that you have enjoyed ,,,yes ,,HE gave it all to you...He gave you even your life...and He continues to give with no "Thank You",,, from most...What is wrong with us??? Are we so into ourselves,,,that we cannot even say,,Thank You God,,,I Love You God? Are we afraid someone will hear us? Don't be afraid ,,talking to God can be lifesaving,,,to shout your belief and love for Him,,,don't wait to say ,,,yes I love you God,,, and say to all,, and to Him,,,, NOT,,,
WHAT HAVE I GIVEN
BUT,,,
HAVE I GIVEN, ENOUGH?
Lord,,,thank you for all that we have,,,amen
John HIcks
Not afraid to stand up and say,,,I believe in a living God,,,and I love the same God....Will you stand with me,,,for Him???? Will you,, for real? O.K.!

JSUT AS I AM, I COME!
Wednesday- Good ole "hump" day! You have climbed to the top of the weekly "hump-slide"! Now is the time to plan for the slide down,, with no splinters.. and slow.. NO! not so fast,, you have plenty of time, so buff out your slide with a little Jesus wax, and make it a slow and a no-splinter slide..right into the week-end,,,,,Slide with Jesus each day, He likes the company!
JUST AS I AM, I COME!
If you get an invitation to someones house, to a party,, to a trip, or just a walk down the road,,, the first thing most say,, oh,, I will have to change , then I will be there,, and the person asking, usually will say,,,"Just come as your are!". Now , we all know that is a courteous way of saying,, don't go and shower, put on your best clothes,, no,, it means ,, come on , it is just us, and we don't mind blue jeans or shorts.. just come on... just a friend thing.... and we do respond usually in that very way...
but we need to be ready when the Master calls.. He will not send us an e-mail, text, twitter or telegram us,,(some of you are asking right now, what is a telegram? Ha), but he will make the invitation instant, and no one can say,, "No , I don't think I will come", for we all will attend that party.... and we will go ,, just as we are! Now ,, cloth yourself, with Jesus, He is always dressed to appear in front of His Father,, and think,, who else would you rather go with.. just yourself?
Stop, prepare ones self, with a new outfit,,, and wear it with pride.. make sure you are ready when the call comes, and you can say with satisfaction, and proudly,,,,
YES , I COME , JUST AS I AM!
Lord, thank You for the way,, Your Son,, our preparation to you,, just as we are, with Him.. amen
John HIcks
Well , are you prepared,,, make that choice, for you are the only one who can.. make it !

THE RADIATION FROM A NATION!
Tuesday- Good morning! Question? What is that they have? The ones who you see walking out of their house, to the car,, down the driveway, down a sidewalk,, or as they walk into a room,, with eyes that are sparkling,, a smile of contentment, and a bounce as if they are going to..to just up and fly away,, they are walking almost on air.. yes ,,, just what is this, that they have? Oh! It's what's inside! It is called "glory".. another name for Jesus...wow!
THE RADIATION FROM A NATION!
I ask for this prayer request: That God will send a way to stop the release of radiation from the nuclear plants in Japan.. This is a serious situation,, and is getting worse, not better.. so folks,, if Japan can't do it... the USA can't do it...then it is left to God.. and we sure need to be on our knees asking Him of this favor.. for what man has played with,, only God can fix.. pray for the plan to either enter someone, or that God just take it in hand alone.
So much has been lost at this sight of the earthquake, and the rumbling is still going on,, this is God talking,, why, and what,, I leave it up to Him, I say, yes Lord I hear you! But folks,, it is time we call out for mercy! For as I see it ,, it is
SERIOUS, AS SERIOUS CAN GET! PRAY DEEPLY MY FRIENDS!
Lord,, please contain the nuclear plants from all radiation,,, and that you have mercy on Japan, and on us.. amen
John HIcks
Concerned,, this could be only the start.. please pray to God to forgive the sins of a world running with the wrong partner,, and the "real deal" will not stand for this much longer..

MY FRIENDS
Monday- Open those eyes bright, let the sunshine of God in,, jump out of bed , start your day off with a big cup of Jesus,, and thanking Him for saving you,, then invite Him to come with you today, to where ever,, hey! It is take God Along With You Day! and of course , every day is!
MY FRIENDS!
Today, I would like to salute you all for still receiving these "thoughts" each day, and all the comments I get back, they are so encouraging.. There are times when I am looking at T.V. and see something that is so bad,, wicked, hurts, things out of the ordinary,, and I think of you all.... and I start then,, thinking of how to ask you to pray for this situation,, and how our prayer works,, for you all have prayed,,, and I have saw things happen..
Yes, to be able to think of you at times of need,, to know you all are there, the majority of friendships made on name alone of most, but also knowing that , these friendships, we all have together with Jesus, and the Father, is what makes it a
Friendship,, My Friends!
God, thank you for all that are on the "thoughts" list, and may you bless each one most graciously. amen
John HIcks
Thank each of you again. and may God Bless you richly! We sometimes forget to say thanks to the ones who mean so much to us.. so stop long enough to say this to your other friends also.. it will make their day, as all of you do me , each and every morning!

THE POSTPONEMENT!
Sunday- Does the throne that God sits in recline? It probably does since He is the inventor of all things,,, and being the seventh day and the day He rested,, I can just see Him reclined, and resting,, lettin out a big sigh,, and telling the Angels,, o.k. you all watch out for those nuts, as you know anything can happen, call me ,, only if you really,, really can't handle it!
THE POSTPONEMENT!
At one time or another , we all have made big plans for something special, and then, at the last minute, had to postpone the event. Wedding are the most notable,,, for they involve so many relatives, friends, and so much expense.. is why they are the forerunner of postponements. Next would be buying something you really and truly want , and may even need,, then having to re-plan and hoping for a miracle , that you won't have to postpone it again.
Now the highest and the still number one of all ,, of all,, postponements,, is the commitment to Christ and His life style. Out of the billions and billions of people ,,, there are over half,, still non-Christians,, this is hard to believe! Now, the big question also,, are you one of those in a billion of billions? It is easier for a missionary or a preacher to get a person or persons in a completely non-christian ,, hostile against Christ that death will happen to any who speaks out publicly of Him,, to come to the Cross of Salvation, accept Jesus as their Savior,, and actually put their lives on the line to testify of Him to others in their country... than for them to get one of our own to make that commitment. Why is this? For , WE, are under so big of a peer pressure,, that we don't want to be different, or have a finger pointed at us, saying,, they don't drink, they don't curse,, they don't commit adultery, they don't spit on sin,, they are "goody,,, goodies"..
In fact ,those who do stand up for Jesus, are hero of sorts, for they do feel lonely, to be there alone! Are you a believer? a testifier, a doer,, one who stands with other Christians,, one who holds a hand out to the sinner,, to come join Jesus,,, not you go join them in their sin-pool of hell? Are you a "now" person,, or are you with those who don't want to come over to this side right now.. are you waiting,, have you taken Jesus and put Him on
POSTPONEMENT?
don't postpone, until you fall into the pits of hell,, for then it not postponement,, it is too late! Understand?
Lord, give me the knowledge to testify better,, for my heart breaks with Yours of every lost,, give us all ,,the ability, and your courage ,, to go out and testify to the world of You , Your Son, and the saving power you offer to each. amen
John HIcks
I stand, even with the gun of sin at my head,,and I will not falter, for I know who will take a bullet for me... do you know the One also? If not,, do not postpone your commitment ,, act now.. don't wait until you stumble at the edge of the pit of hell,, and it is too late... accept Him now, and if you already have ,, re-commit this moment also... make the Choice of a Lifetime!

GOD AND NATURE
Saturday-Start of your week-end, whether it be fun in the sun, the yard, just sitting around, or having to work,, make it a day of remembrance,, for you, and for Jesus,, invite Him along to whatever it is you plan and do! It just makes my day, and I am sure it will make yours.. so try it, for it costs nothing to take Him along, but the cost of not,,well!
GOD AND NATURE!
Did you see the debris from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan? It was utterly mine boggling
The little dog , rescued off the roof top of a house floating in the ocean, 100s of miles from shore.. I saw one house, it looked like it was just dropped lightly into the water, and it was just floating along,, then the "miles" long jam of debris,, looked sort like a log jam on a river.. it was so awesome of the amount floating that far from shore.. We see this terrible act of nature,, and we all must wonder,, what has happen to all that stuff that is sucked back into the ocean.. is it just laying there? Now we know,, it can be to the coast of the USA soon.. some of it,,then it will take years for this and that to appear on our shores...
Folks,,, this is a serious picture from our God , letting us know just who is in charge.. Look, another 7 jolt, to Japan.. what else can they withstand? Only God knows,, and He will make that decision.. and we must all know that He is making decisions ,right here in America.. After seeing all of this, on film,, the tsunami, the earthquake, the debris, the fate of these people in Japan, are you going to continue to deny Him? Are you not going to re-dedicate to Him.. accept Him for the first time, if you have not.. testify to someone you know who is not accepted Him yet.. are you going to make a difference,, are you going to prepare yourself and those around you for the day when our turn comes? And it will,,,trust me... we are doing our best to get there fast.. as if we want it.. and some will do anything to escape peer pressure, and keep that job security..they will continue to deny,, are you one of those.. or are you prepared?
Lord, I pray today, that we all are ready, and that we all have prepared by accepting Jesus as our Savior and our protector.. thank You God for your love of our country and I ask for your forgiveness of its' sins. amen
John HIcks
Humble, and proud to be a Christian , as best I can,, and having the satisfaction of Jesus by my side,, do you have that satisfaction? You can by making the right , simple decision... so please do it... before it becomes something you utter, I wish I had!

THE BEAUTY AND THE BEAST!
Monday- The start of your new week,, let's do this one right.. let's get out and work for the Lord this week,, like we did last week! Right?
THE BEAUTY AND THE BEAST!
You pick!
I pick, the beauty of the saving power of Jesus, it is so beautiful!
Pick the "beast", and you pick damnation, burning fire and hurt for eternity.
Now , I have picked, which one did you pick? and remember the one you pick, you answer for?
THE BEAUTY OF JESUS, OR THE BEAST OF satan!
Your Choice!
God Almighty , thank You for giving me Jesus to lean on, accept , travel with on Your highway to You amen
John HIcks
As we all talk about our belief in God,, only a few really show it.. It is called testifying , and few stand as tall as they should,, I wish I could stand taller, for I would reach the clouds ,,if I was just tall enough,, just a little more faith,, then stretch, and stretch.. and I will ,,, Are you stretching,or shrinking back,, out of sight.. come on... show yourself, no one will laugh!

LOCK-JAW
Sunday- Welcome to the sabbath! Remember , a truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery while on a detour!
Prayer Request: Pray that God will stop all the radiation leaks in Japan, before that nation is covered, and most of the world. Also , bless those people , for they need His help each minute of the day.. pray for the Americans there also. Folks, this is real, and it is very serious!
LOCK-JAW!
This, in reality is Tetanus, a disease caused by a cut getting infected, and can cause death.. there is a vaccination for this dreaded disease.
We , as humans have a disease of this sort, and I will also call it "lock-jaw". It is the condition of one having the in-ability to speak of ones Savior, ones true God. They can speak of satan freely, but when it comes to God,, they tend to have "lock-jaw".
I don't know if it is being shy speaking in a crowd, but they even do it in a small group, of even two.. they just don't stand up for God.. as if they have this dreaded disease when God is associated with them and others.. keeps Him inside, but releases satan freely..
Think, if Jesus has 'lock-jaw" when you get to Heaven, and are about to be judged as to whether you are going to stay, or be sent to hell. If you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, and you stand up for Him, testify of Him and the Father,, then Jesus will testify for you and take on all of your sins to the Father, and you can stay in Heaven. Deny Him and you will fall into a hole of hopelessness,, of fire and brimstone, with no end.
So, it is up to you,, to get vaccinated by accepting Jesus as your vocal presentation to God,, or have 'lock-jaw" here, and go straight to hell. Your choice!
Lord, I accept Jesus as my personal Savior, and I pray that all who reads this will also accept Him, and that we all testify with healthy mouth and voice, and we testify of His saving power regularly. amen
John HIcks
I don't mind telling anyone I meet about Jesus , and I do each chance I get.. will you join me? I have been vaccinated by the grace of Jesus Christ, and satan cannot pass by this barrier.. how about it,, ashamed to speak up? Make a choice, and make it now!

NOW OR NEVER!
Saturday- Welcome to another one of Gods' days! Please don't forget to thank Him today for the day, and all the other things in your life from Him,, o.k.? It'll only take a few seconds!
NOW OR NEVER!
This is a saying , that I have heard over and over in my life. Someone is going to do something,, and they say ,, well it is now or never.. and they either do it or they don't.
Here is today, and a short message from my little brain to your big brain.... Have you accepted the Lord Jesus as your savior? Have you committed your life to Him? Are you a Christian? Do you profess to people that you are a Christian , that you are a believer, that you have accepted Jesus,, and do you really let people know of all these commitments and invite others to join you? Or do you say to yourself only, I am all of these and more,, or to just a few who are not a threat to your surroundings of others that you might not want to stand out as a real working Christian...but no, you do not stand out on a corner for fear,, or embarrassment.. Remember, Jesus will , once accepted, will stand by you through it all, even to standing before His Father, our God, and taking all your sins on His back.. so answer the questions,,,, for the time is at hand, and you have been asked to do it,,, to commit,,
NOW, OR NEVER!
God, I pray today, that we all say,, NOW,, and that you give us the strength to stand tall and firm for You and for Jesus.. amen
John HIcks
I stand tall,,, and I stand loud,, but sometimes I feel like I stand alone,, and my voice is not even a whisper to anyone,, for I see so many people who look and pass on by.. how about it.. are you a "passer" , or a "stander", for God, and Son, Jesus? Yes , it is the time,, NOW OR NEVER! Think about it!

"For I was hungry, and you gave me food, I was thirsty, you gave me drink, I was a stranger, you invited me in, I needed clothes , and you gave me clothes, I was sick , and you looked after me, I was in prison, you visited me. Matt. 25:35-36 NIV
Lord, I pray this day, that we all read, and read this message, and let it sink in, and then practice what the Master is telling us. Lord I also ask that you give us the strength to do the above to all those who come! amen
John HIcks
