Missions

We’ve been emphasizing the need for peanut butter for God’s Storehouse in Amite.  Yesterday, labels with the Scripture, John 3:16, were applied to the jars.  A wonderful problem was discovered.  We had more jars than labels.  I will see to it we soon have more labels, so keep on bringing peanut butter (to the area under the stairway at the office entrance to FBC,K).  Thanks for being so responsive to a need.  This emphasis will continue all month.

“Way Out”

http://odb.org/2014/05/10/way-out/

“You may ask Me for anything in My Name,
and I will do it.”
~John 14:13~

“God Will Take Care of You”

http://nethymnal.org/htm/g/w/gwiltake.htm

This has been my “go-to” song of assurance for about fifty years.  It means as much to me today as it always has.  Things never get too difficult for God.  He always wants the best for me!

Rain!  Rain was needed in our area.  God provided it.  Someone else sent the phone message at 1:00 A.M. that there is a flash flood watch in areas to the south of here.  A phone alert in the middle of the night will certainly get you up!  I’m thankful for the rain and the alert for people who may have needed to get up and become aware of their rain situation.  I’m also thankful not to live in a low area.  I pray  that people to the south of here will be aware of their situation and even if flooding happens they will know that “God Will Take Care of (Them) You”.

Third Thursday

Thursday, at 6:30 P.M., we will have our Third Thursday meeting at the cabin.  You are invited to join us.  Since the month of May started on a Thursday, the meeting comes earlier in the month than usual.  Don’t miss this opportunity to be blessed.

There is a man in our area who spends ALL DAY every Saturday studying his Bible so he will be prepared to teach a class on Sunday.  He wants to be prepared and do God’s will as he prepares to teach.  May we all have a greater willingness to learn what God has for us each week!

Have a great day of preparation for the Lord’s day!

“It Must be God”

http://www.joycemeyer.org/Articles/Devotional.aspx

 

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
But where there are prophecies, they will cease;
where there are tongues, they will be stilled;
where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
~1 Corinthians 13:4-8~
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?”
~Romans 8:35~

Thursday Addition

Mike Moore of West Monroe

Mike is the husband of a long time friend, Robin, who is the daughter of Leroy and Margaret Ann Daniel Wilson who grew up in Roseland and Amite.  Mike had a cancer behind his eye.  Mike and Robin were told if cancer could spread to his lungs or liver.  For the past few days Mike has been with severe coughing attacks.  At first, they though of pollen and normal allergies, but are now concerned the cancer might be in his lungs.  Monday and Tuesday, they will be seeing doctors in Memphis.  Robin asks that prayer warriors begin to pray for them.  Mike knows he will be healed, but waits to see if the healing will take place here on earth or in heaven.

Mission Project

Out mission project is coming along nicely.  We are collecting jars of peanut butter to help meet needs at God’s Storehouse in Amite.  Before delivering them, a label with John 3:16 will be applied to each jar.  Bags or boxes of peanut butter can be left under the stairwell at the office entrance door to FBC,K.  Thanks to those who have already helped and those who have made their purchases, but not deliveries.  You are making a difference!

Our Daily Bread – “Talking About Jesus”

http://odb.org/?tz=-07

2Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God.

 5For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.

~2 Corinthians 4: 2,5~

Let me tell you what He has done for me.”

~Psalm 66:16~

“I  Love to Tell the Story”

http://cyberhymnal.org/htm/i/l/ilttts.htm

I don’t know what this day holds, but I know who holds the day in His hand.  I hope you do too.  If not, find someone who can share Jesus with you.

Wednesday Addition

I forgot to mention Gail is having surgery on her wrist this morning in Baton Rouge.  When she got medical attention for the other arm, this one was thought to be okay.  She really had double trouble.  In the mealtime, the other arm is much better now.  Please pray surgery goes well and the recovery time doesn’t drag on any longer.

Wednesday

“Fight the good fight for the faith;

take hold of eternal life that you were called to

and have made a good confession about

in the presence of many witnesses.”

~1 Timothy 6:12, HCSB~

(Be a bold witness!)

Continue to pray for the family of Billy McDaniel.

Boyd made it home as we called.  We let Miles visit with his dad rather than talk with us.  I’m sure they all had a good reunion.  Thank-you to all who are praying for Boyd’s family.

“Nothing but the Blood”

I’m saved by the blood of Jesus!  Nothing else can save, certainly not anything  I do on my own.  He’s paid the price for you too!  Ask a pastor or someone whom you trust if you need more information.

Monday Update

David and I were called Mr. Steve’s cell phone, which Boyd has been using for a week while stateside, and got Mr. Steve.  We also talked with “Miss” Ginger.  They both sounded good.  Today, Mr. Steve started physical therapy and made some good progress.  He was also allowed to get a shower.  That certainly was good to improved his spirits.

Boyd was being taken to the airport by his brother, Aaron.  Boyd will leave shortly and arrive home, after only one layover, tomorrow night.  His family has managed their busy schedule while he has been away.

Thank you for your prayers for the family.  Please keep praying.
