A United House
'Borrowed' from Beth Moore's blog of today.
A United House
To my beloved Sisters who I esteem so highly and consistently find to be part of the solution to our problems in the Church rather than the cause, Please join me in praying for our President-elect Barack Obama, his wife Michelle, and his precious daughters, Sasha and Malia.
To my beloved Sisters who I esteem so highly and consistently find to be part of the solution to our problems in the Church rather than the cause, Please join me in praying for our President-elect Barack Obama, his wife Michelle, and his precious daughters, Sasha and Malia.
Go with me before the Throne of our sovereign God and ask Him to grant wisdom from above to President-elect Obama and the indwelling presence and power of Jesus Christ.
In the words of the Apostle Paul, "I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone - for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.
This is good, and pleases God our Savior..."Please also join me in the active and deliberate pursuit of unity and purity in the Body of Christ at this historical time in our country. I implore you in Jesus' Name to have zero tolerance for prejudice whether it is regarding party-affiliation, color (whether you are Black, White, or Brown), economics or the like.
Disagreement is not sin. Prejudice is.
Satan has plotted events and planted attitudes that, should he be successful, will result in havoc.
We must not stand for his schemes or cooperate in a single way. We would severely displease God and invite untold chastisement upon Christ's Church in our nation. Speak clearly to your children and graciously but emphatically draw a line in your work places and social circles regarding your stand against prejudice of any kind.
"Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, 'Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.'" (Matthew 12:25)
A united house stands. A divided house falls.
The devil has much to gain.
But he also has much to lose.
We are the Body of Jesus Christ and we have an opportunity to show His character. This is our watch. We stand for what is right not from our feet but from our knees. I humble myself before you and make these pleas under such bold direction of God that I could not resist it nor disobey it. He made it a fire in my bones.I love and esteem you so much. Shoulder to shoulder, Dear Sisters. Let's leave not one inch for the enemy to come between us.
"Then will I purify the lips of the peoples, that all of them may call on the name of the Lord and serve Him shoulder to shoulder." Zephaniah 3:9
I agree with Beth Moore!
Father forgive me of my sins. I confess them to you.
And to my friends and family....forgive my prejudice.
A Blonde And Her Windows
A story told by a blonde woman (Not me)…
Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with that expensive double-pane energy efficient kind, and today, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the work had been completed a whole year ago and I still hadn't paid for them.

Hellloooo, just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid.
So, I told him just what his fast talking sales guy had told me last year, namely, that in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves!
Hellloooo!
It's been a year! (I told him.)
There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up.... He never called back.
