WHAT MORE DO THEY WANT?

MONDAY! Up early, eager to start the day! Thanks to my God for another day, and yes, another cup of coffee, and our health, and all our family, and friends... now to the business of the Lord! Testifying, and living as to put a smile on His face... How about it today, or any day, want to join me?.. Then lets start with a great big ole "Thank You God for Everything", and then a big smile , whether you feel like it or not, for after these two things, you will feel better, maybe not able to jump the fence , but able to look at it and say ,, "it is jump-able"! Have a great day!!!! With the Lord and the world! Prayer Requests: For my brother-in-law, Bobby Sanders ,, who is suffering with anemia, and heart problems of not beating correctly, needing blood.. please pray that as his tests go forward , they will continue to get better.. and pray for his full recovery ,and alos his wife, JoAnne. From Dana Stephens, pray for Maryln Bollinger , who is in ICU, pray for her healing. For William Burkett, to be brought back to reality of life, and for God to hold on to Him and His mind, and keep him from harms way. WHAT MORE DO THEY WANT OF US? I ask, and this is a prayer we all need to be making, and making with our God in mind,and then our Nation... for our leaders in Washington, have left both out of all decisions... Without getting political, and also finding a way to say it, is not possible,,, for on all next elections,, WE the American people, no matter the nationality, the color of ones skin, the belief of Republican, or Democrat,,, need to vote for those who profess and prove to be a Christian,, into office, and also require a brain test,,,, and you will do this, if you really look at what these "so called" cliff savers have passed ... Now, off politics, long enough to say,, pray for this Nation, and all laws passed, be that after all involved have gone to the Lord on their knees, and pray for divine leading,, and quite following the Pied Piper... You the people have paid for them to live better than most of us, given them big cars, life long retirement, and insurance(better than all of us).. and a great places to go, except the Congress, if you will look at the attendance, and the vote... enough, enough, for if we want our Nation to continue, a free Nation Under God, then we must pray, and at election time , before we vote, ask this question, JUST WHAT MORE DO YOU,,, WANT FROM US,,,, then vote! Lord, deliver this Nation from satans hand, and put Your People back in charge...amen John HIcks This morning, enough is enough!!!

REACH OUT!

SUNDAY! Good Morning to all! I hope all are well, and in good spirit this fine day of our Lords! Give Him thanks for it, and every day,, for with out Him,, it is just another day,,,,better with, than without! The more attached we are to a vision of the future, the less present we are,, to what is actually trying to emerge here and now! REACH OUT DAY! Today is reach-out day,, for reaching out saying to your buddy,,, best friend,, friend,, or just someone you know,,, or someone you don't even know,,, "Hey, do you know Jesus Christ? Are you saved? Have you been born again, by faith? If not,, would you like to know how to do this?" Now will you do it? Will you walk up to someone,, or into the middle of a crowd, and when your time comes to speak,, ask the question, is there anyone here, who is not saved by the Blood of Jesus Christ,, anyone who does not know Him, anyone who would like to know Jesus Christ ,, and Gods' plan for salvation? Would you? Will you? Or will you wish you had, after that person is gone,, or the crowd is broken up? Think,, if Jesus said the same thing,, "I wish I had asked..........."? Don't miss out on being a spoke-person for God ,, He will never forsake you! TODAY,,,,REACH OUT TO SOMEONE,,, EVEN IF THAT SOMEONE IS YOU!!! Lord, give me the tongue to speak of You, to all I meet, and especially Lord, I invite you into my heart, and I give You my soul...and I pray for all those lost in this world,,,, amen John HIcks sometimes, we may look at our arms, and think, we can only reach the second shelf,, but if we will just close our eyes, and use our brain, we can make these arms reach all the way around someone we care about,, and reach those lost, and guide them to Jesus, and safety of their soul. How far can you reach, and just how far do you really want to reach?

Live or burn! Just simple, no beating around the ole bush,, you either do, or you don't! Your choice,,,, think about it,,, now make the decision UP OR DOWN?

Today is the day for all of us to get out and hunt all the positives we see,, and here is the challenge,,,, "find four(4) positives, and one negative, then find a reason to make that negative into a positive",,, now ,this may sound like it is hard, but at a plant I worked at ,, we done this for a year, and we all became much more positive... Take a little card with you, and write on it each time you find the positive, and the negative, and what you did to turn it around... try it , for it can turn into a really good practice, and a good game... and what is my first one positive, (1)I know and believe in my God! Prayer Request: Please pray for Cathy Watson, who is house bound, and was a very active person , outside the home, pray for God to meet her needs. BEST OF THE BEST Be the BEST you can for the Lord! What you do and what you say, is the best testimony for Him that you can do. Your actions are forever, so be a good example. Let everyone know how to make the "forever" the place they want to share. Show them that your faith and confession to Jesus, is the way to Heaven. Spread the word with your actions, and be the BEST OF THE BEST! Just remember, what you say and what you do, goes a long way. Lord grant us a good day, give us the ability to spread Your word to ALL we meet, and may You give us the strength, and we have the faith, to live as an example , and that example be of You, and pleasing to others , so they will follow the path to you. amen John Hicks All comments are welcome , good or bad.
