A CHRISTIAN THREAD

[tom_no.1]

Welcome to a place where Christ should be exalted and "Self" should be abased!!

Welcome to a place where the BIBLE can be discussed rationally, intelligently, and positively without unnecessary argument!!

Welcome to a place where prayer can be requested and encouraged!!

Welcome to a place where positive and encouraging thoughts from scripture can be shared in a caring and loving way!!

Welcome to a place away from all the arguments, recriminations, and negativity of the outside world!!

Welcome to a place of rest and safety!!

Welcome to a place where Philippians 2:3 is practiced: "Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves."

Welcome to this Christian thread.



(Please leave all aggression, bitterness, and philosophy outside the door and please wipe your feet before coming inside!!)


  

I live in my own little world. But it's OK... They know me Here!

Hi, Bob. I mean I need enough food and enough funds to pay the bills and care for the animals.

Hi everyone:

I haven't read all of the posts and not sure if you all know but Nellie's Mom is very sick and she is on her way to Winnipeg. Nellie said she has not felt up to posting but has asked that we pray for her.

Thanks for the update Janet - Prayers on their way for Nellie

[lr4941]

noooooo!!!!

:(

Prayers being said for Nellie and her mom. Requesting that God have total control over everything involved there.

How great is our God!
How great is our God!
How great, how great is our God!

Awwww poor Nellie, and at such a busy time of year too. After being so generous to Nelson House, I certainly hope that she will be granted inner peace and all the helps she needs at this time. It seems that she well deserves a break and a positive outcome in this situation.

[lr4941]

Ahem.

Some of my Christian brothers and sisters here are sneaky!!

I have my suspicions, though. 😉

Thank you. God has blessed me in so many ways. I pray for blessings for you, too.

I will be telling my church about how God has blessed me, and the telling of it will encourage and bless others!

I pray that He heaps His love and blessing upon all of you.

Has anyone heard how Nellie and her Mom are doing?

[squiddley_diddley]

I was wondering that myself. Does anyone here have an e-mail addy where they could get in touch with her hubby or her son to get an update?

[lr4941]

I came in here for the same reason - thinking about her and her mom.

Let's keep praying for them.

[squiddley_diddley]

Definitely!

For those that might prefer praying "musically", here's a good choice of song (sung by Wynonna Judd):

http://www.wyoblue.com/Testify_To_Love.html

Testify to Love

All the colors of the rainbow
All the voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
Reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in every sky
Every corner of creation lives to testify

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
when words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to Kingdom come
All the hope in every heart
Will speak what love has done

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify....
I will testify to love
(For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love)
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
{repeat}

Nice one, squiddley. :)

...just wanted to be with my Christian brothers and sisters....

[survivornikki]

Just asking for prayers for Vancouver Island and the B.C. lower mainland tonight. Another bad storm is headed our way and this one is supposed to have hurricane force winds. We have already had one bad storm this week, thousands are without power up Island and several of the rivers are swollen mid Island. Don't know about the rest of you, but I am a little fed up. I retired to the banana belt, this is not what I expected!

Good luck and God Bless everyone.

I just dropped Nellie an email to let her know our prayers are with her.
