THE START OF MAN..THE START OF WO-MAN

Tuesday-- Hello out there, come on , wake up, get out of that bed,, we are going on a hike today...so get a shower, get dressed, put on your shoes! This is a hike today with Jesus.. He has been ready for some time,,,and it is time we take Him up on it,,, We are going to hike down a straight trail, no hills, no brier brush, just cool sailing ,, a cool and fair day,,, we are going to hike down, His trail, today,, and then you might, just might, want to hike on it each day,,, I hope!


THE START OF MAN,,, THE START OF WO-MAN

In the beginning,, Genesis:2:7, the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
After the beginning had started, Genesis 2:18, The Lord God said , "It is not good for the man to be alone, I will make a help suit-able for him.
Genesis 2: 21-23: So the Lord God caused the man to fall unto a deep sleep: and while he was sleeping , he took one of man's ribs and closed up the place with flesh. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman', for she was taken out of man."
Now in the beginning, God created Heaven and Earth,, He created Man, and He created Woman.. I believe , do you? Man, count your ribs!

GOD MADE ALL!

God, thank You for us, and the use of Your earth, and Your promises,,, amen

Knowing I never came from anyone, except my God,, Look in the mirror and see where you came from and where you are going, you have to look deep, just passed the banana tree.. Ha!

EAR TO THE WALL!

Monday: Back from the long week-end, that is most of us... Those in re-tail, a long , long week-end! Now , we are full,, lots of shopping done,, we can kick back , and enjoy a Monday,, yes enjoy a Monday! Yes, I know, except for those who have jobs to go to , just be thankful , you have one!

Prayer Request: Ray Noll,, husband of Delores, who is back in the hospital with problems. Let's all give him our prayers for healing and relief, and back home soon.

EAR TO THE WALL!

I walked up on a fellow one day,,,he had his ear to a wall,,,I looked at him,,, he just continued to listen and after a while,, I put my ear up to the wall,, a few seconds later,,I said,,"I don't hear a thing!" He said, "It's been like that all day!".
Of course this is a joke, but it is a lot like our leaders of our government, in their messages today...they talk, we listen at the wall, and we hear nothing,, just the wind!
But, today, there is one who calls, and calls us second by second.. This one, the Leader of all is our salvation,, and He is calling to you , to me, today, this second.. If you have not heard Him,, then put your ear back to the wall,, the wall of faith,, open your heart,, then you will hear, and then , if you have not already accepted Him, ,, you should listen and react...Yes,, once you hear Him calling,,, "Come,, come to me!",, then you need to answer right then and there,, "Yes Lord, I am here,, I confess to You my sins,, please accept me in your heart." I can guarantee you.. He has His ear to the wall, listening at all times, and once you ask, He hears, He reacts, and "bamn", you are His,.. just so simple.
We need to stop in our tracks,,, listen to this voice calling out...if we don't, and if we don't change our ways,,,and the ways of our co-existers in this world,,,we may loose it all...We cannot turn a deaf ear to this voice,,,for we are on our way to the darkest times of this world,,,and the only thing that can turn it around is this voice we hear,,,"come to me,,,accept me,,,give me your heart and soul,,,show me your faith,,,I will make it right, Just call out to me,,,,I am listening!"
Yes,, this voice ,,, is the voice of the SON OF GOD,,,JESUS CHRIST,,,CALLING OUT !


Do you have your ear to the,, "Jesus Wall"?

Lord, thank You for being at the wall of calling for us, and that You listen 24/7. I pray that all will call , and call before it is to late. amen

John HIcks
I called, He heard, how about it,, it takes very little breath to call out to Him,, have you....Choice, yours!

THE TRIP !

Saturday- As we walk on our road, let us walk and pave it with the love of Jesus, and then we can have a smooth road to God, and Heaven..

Prayer of Thanks: My grandson, Noah fell out of a kitchen chair on his head,,, a ride to the hospital in an ambulance,, "ct" scan, and all was o.k. ,, just a big red spot on his head,, and after he won all of the staffs heart,, they sent him home, a well and sound baby under Mom and Dad's loving care... Thank You God, for grabbing him and easing him to the floor , unhurt.. all praises go to you!


THE TRIP!

We do travel a rough road in this life.. with all the bumps, holes, and hurts in it. There's satan, with a shovel, pick, temptations, all things to just demolish any road. We let him do his "digs" make his pot holes,, as he wants, and just limp by these holes, stepping on a spike, then falling down on barb wire,, these are all cuts and bruises of sin, on his road he has worked so hard,, to make us stumble and fall off , right into hell.
Now this road of satans' is this way , because we let it be . It does not have to be, it can be just as smooth as glass, and a view of the beauty of this world, it can carry laughter, singing, skipping, hand holding, smiles, love, just the fullest , greatest life we can imagine, and yes it also leads to the eternal life of spirit in Heaven with our Savior and God.
Which is better? the first road or the second road? I have taken the second one,, the first you don't even have to do anything to get on it.. just deny God,and you are on it. Now, the second road is easy too,, it has this "on ramp" that is just like a Cross.. at the top of the ramp stands Jesus, just as alive as you and I, with arms outstretched, and smiling. As you put your foot down, and call out to Him,, oh Jesus,,, I love you, and I want to walk with you through this life,, I accept you.. you are instantly standing next to Him, and He will wrap you up , and carry you down this road ,, and never let you fall off.. on through this life with happiness, and on to Heaven with a guarantee of a partner to get you in..

AFTER THIS TRIP IS FINISHED!

God, thank You , for Jesus, and the paved road to You,, amen

John HIcks
I never will walk that rough road again, for by choice, I choose my Savior, Jesus Christ, to trust and to walk with in this life, and I never want to feel the sting of sin again.. for I have the only One who can take this sin away... yes it is by choice of your road to travel,, come walk with all of us,, and ask Jesus to save you... make the choice,, now!

THE PILGRIMS' BACKWARD GLANCE

Friday- WOW! What a day yesterday! We as a nation, are the greatest place on this earth, and anyone who does not believe in this , and believe that God gave it to us,, has a brain that in in relapse! I pray that the people of this United States of America will see how blessed they are, then assist those who are in need and share this great blessinig that He has bestowed upon us!

Prayer Request: Please pray for Charles Crews, who is in the last stages of cancer,, and needs all the prayers for his pain, and his mindful presence.

THE PILGRIMS BACKWARD GLANCE

I just wonder ,, if the Pilgrims are looking back at us , what are they thinking of us now.. and how just far that one dinner with those Indians,, affected a nation so big, from that little sandy shore on their day, the very first Thanksgiving day?
Well , if they could have seen our celebration, they would have been proud... we first had fellowship with each other, as the dinner was prepared,,, then the welcoming, the reading of His word, a prayer to bless that abundant meal, eat,, then laugh, fellowship more and more,, and one of the best of all,, watching those young ones run, play hide n seek, laugh, and the look in their eyes as they see uncles, aunts, cousins, that for some, have never seen, and for all of them the look of "Wow! I did not know I had so many cousins! Ha,, They, these precious one are the future, as I was the future to many, and as I looked around,, I didn't for a short while worry about this world, for I could see the future running , laughing, building character, soul, and love for one another,, just as I saw their parents running around the same way. Yes this world is in good hands,, and I believe that is just how the Pilgrims were thinking as they looked at their young doing just that, and then seeing all of us giving thanks to the Master today as they did,, and I justt know that they are very, very proud of what they see as

THEY HAVE A BACKWARD GLANCE

AT THEIR THANKSGIVING GIFF,,, OF THEN TO NOW!

GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS US,, IS MY PRAYER FOR THIS FRIDAY!

John HIcks
Humble and thankful for all of you , my good friends and love ones!
