I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:16-19

Dear,

While it's true that a rose by any other name will still smell as sweet, I would seriously suggest you change that display name "ragamuffinsong" unless it has some inner meaning for you we don't get.

The testimony you highlight in your profile is great but that name will just make people pass by...thinking it's just another joker in the park! I am sorry if this doesn't go well with you.

Yours in Christ-Pastor Bernhard

Hello Hope!!!
How are you? I hope you had a good weekend. Did you take a break from the job hunting? Wow, six job iinterviews!!! I hope and pray that the Lord will bless your hubby with a good job!!!
I went to my new church again this last Sunday and was blessed immensely!!! I was introduced to the Pastor and is intrested im my work. Oh it would bless me soo much if I could be working in a church again!!! When I worked at Calvary Chapel before my daughter was born I loved it because I could bring my son, and being that he was soo good natured, he didnt bother anyone. It was vi. I have a ton of pictures of him there with me.
Anyway, I wanted to comment on the Truth Project, PRAISE GOD FOR THE TRUTH PROJECT!!! Oh I love it!!! I took the class a few months ago, and I absolutely
thought it was INCREDIBLE!!!!!! I it they should be viewed by everyone, Christian or non-Christian. It is soo well told,well researched. and compared to other faiths and beliefs. He explains the Truth very well and has the knowledge and proof to share it. I wish I could afford his DVD series!! Oh, I would give anything!!! Do you have it?
Well, I will leave you another message later.
I love you!!!
Paige

I was reading your coments, Role of the Pastor and it was evident that you have expearenced spiritual abuse. My heart breaks for you and your church. I Have alot of imformation on my forum Healing for those recovering from spiritual abuse that might be helpful to you. God bless.

Hi Hope!!
Im checking in to say hello! How are you?
I hope u r ok and all is well.
I really enjoyed talking to you the other day. Im sorry that I had to go but kids tend to cut phone conversations short pretty well. I loved chatting with you. It really uplifted me and made me feel stronger.
How is the truth project group going? I still would love to get my hands on that dvd set. What section are you on now? Your group is tonight right?
Keep me in prayer sweetie. I have had a really bad weekend. I just am struggling as a parent. I realized that I still have issues that I "thought" were gone long ago, but have come out strong since I had kids. Especially two. Its like you think you were healed of something from God, but obviously its still there. Especially when my 3 year old throws his tantrums. Ohh my blood boils, but much more internally I feel the pain, and the issues stir around and around my insides till I feel physically sick. Oh well, Call me sometime, and we will talk again.
I love you dear! Im thankful that God brought us together!!
God Bless!

Best graphics, layouts, and more for your profiles! Click Here!

That Poem is fantastic! I went though it all myself and the miricle of forgiveness is a wonderful gift from God. I hope you put your imput into the group on anger in the Christians life. I have alot of friends from The abusive group I was in who after many years still suffer because they can't forgive and hang onto it with every thing. You are such a blessing I am Glad to be a part of this net with you.

Sister Hope,

Thank the Lord daily for your Emmanuel. Since the name itself translates into 'God with us', you are lucky because you could be having God times two! Trust God that He will provides the where-withal for you travel anywhere you desire...to the glory of His name.

When (and not if) that will materialise, I hope you will be kind enough to save a day or two to be our guests in Kenya. Be blessed immensely-Pst. Bernhard

dear hope grace, i do hope you have a blessed day,

Hello Grace my friend!!!
How are you? I called yesterday , but couldnt get you. I hope u r ok.
I have been reading your concerns about this couple that were in your group that have decided to get a divorce. Its a tough one. What do you do? Well, I know that the bible says to address the person in love and honesty that what they are doing is wrong and try to help them. Then if they dont seem to work on it , talk to them again in love and honesty with maybe someone else they respect and love. Then if that doesnt help, and they arent willing to work something out, go to your pastor, and he can address the issue with love, then if they still dont work it out, then its in the pastors hands and Gods hands. This is NOT your problem to fix. This is not your responsibility to save. I remember God said to me when I was trying to "save" someone, He said, "If you will stop trying to save them, Ill deliver them". Ohhh Ouch Haleluiah!!! I know where you are coming from and I know its hard, but I truly think you have done all you need to do. Let them go, and let the Lord deal with it. Its ultimately up to God. Sometimes seperations work, because it gives each spouse some time apart to rethink things before jumping into a big divorce. You may want to suggest that? Hmmm.
"Help me Lord, to reassure and strengthen
Others by the words I speak today;
I would always try to be affirming,
As our pathways cross along lifes way.-Hess.
Even if you have nothing else to give, you can give encouragement.
I love you Hope, and thank you for all your help and kind words. I think we share a special friendship!!!
~God Bless you~

I discovered a new worship song called hold on by 33 miles. it was so encouraging to me. I pray it is just what you need when you listen to it. God bless

Hello dearest friend!!!!
How are you doing? It was awesome to talk to you last Sunday!!! You really touch my heart. God is soo good and He provides the right people at the right time in our lives to bless us!! God knows our needs and if we need love,guidance,companionship,or encouragement, he is faithful to provide the right person to come into our lives.
This is something really cool I read during my devotional this morning:
There may be days of darkness and distress,
when sin has power to tempt, and care to press,
Yet, in the darkest day, I will not fear,
For midst the shadows,You will be near,
Thank you Lord Jesus!!!
Anyway, I hope you. your hubby, and the kitty are good!!! I didnt know you were a Godmother!!! That is soo cool!!! Congrats.
I love you dear. Call me sometime, Ok?
Paige

Hello Grace!!! I miss you soo bad! I meant to call you but it just didnt make it. I cant beleive how awful of a friend I am. Its been like over a week since I talked with you. I really want to keep in touch. I do feel that the Lord brought us together. How are you feeling? Is everything ok physically? After our converstaion a week ago or so, I felt for you. I am soo sorry you had to endure that kind of pain my sister. I wish I could do something for you. All I can do for you is pray. and love on you.
~"My thoughts are not your thoughts,
nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord.
~Isaiah 55:8

"Therefore by Him let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to his name,"
!Hebrews 13:15

"Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but
My words will by no means pass away.
~Mark 13:31

Anyway, those are just some scriptures that I read today that really spoke to me. I hope they help you too.
I miss you and give me a call sometime!!

Dear Sister Grace
Thank you for coming to my life and becoming my friend. God bless you always.

PLEASE KEEP ON SERVING THE LORD IN THIS SITE BECAUSE YOU ARE NEEDED HERE. GBY

I am being made aware that Jesus is coming sooner than many think. Many will not be ready for His return. We need to be ready, wise virgins, keeping oil in our lamps.

Please do keep on praying for the request of mine down below, and I know I can count on you to do it:

Please "WIN the 10/40 WINDOWS" for JESUS CHRIST.
The 10/40 Windows (located between 10 - 40 degrees North of Equator - between West Africa to East Asia) need Missionaries, have no church at all, and there live about 40 percent of the world population. INDONESIA, my country is in the 10-40 windows though we have churches. Let's get on our knees, praying hand in hand with me for their revival. I look forward to the day when the Lord who I kneel to worship will be recognized by all the living and the dead as the One True Lord.
Thank you so very much

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. John 14:2

A message was given recently in which Jesus said, the mansion I went to prepare for you is now finished. All is ready for Me to bring My people home.
