Hey standers,

I'm still alive and praying. Things are taking a turn for the better in my life and it is all because of the Lord. I continue to draw closer to him everyday and he continues to bless me more and more.

Now just because you don't see me on here as much doesn't mean I'm not praying everyday for all of you, you are all my family.

I will be back soon with my daily "standers encouragements" but felt like I just needed to back away from everything for a while to focus more on the Lord and what he wants me to do.

Lets never stop praising Him, never stop believing that He can and will restore our marriages, and lets never become so over whelmed by our circumstances that we forget to keep Jesus 1st.

Now today I want to share with you all an email that was sent to me. It was just one of those things that make you say wow. I hope you enjoy it and are blessed.

Ronnie.

Jesus Christ said; "Love your enemies, do good

to those who hate you, bless those who

curse you, pray for those who mistreat you."

( Luke 6:27-28 *NIV )

As you know it is written; 'Love your neighbor as

yourself.' ( Matthew 19:19 & Leviticus:18.)

So today I would like to share with you a message that was

sent to me by one of our subscriber's. May it minister to you

as it has to me. It is titled.....

The Dart Test...

A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had in

a seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr Smith. She says

that Dr Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons.

Now one particular day, Sally walked into the seminary and

knew they were in for a fun day.

On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were many

darts. Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture of some-

one that they disliked, or someone who had made them angry,

and he would allow them to throw darts at the person's picture.

Sally's friend drew a picture of who had stolen her boyfriend.

Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. Sally drew a

picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into her

drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was very

pleased with the overall effect she had achieved.

The class lined up and began throwing darts. Some of the

students threw their darts with such force that their targets were

ripping apart. Sally looked forward to her turn, and was filled

with disappointment when Dr. Smith, because of time limits,

asked the students to return to their seats. As Sally sat thinking

about how angry she was because she didn't have a chance to

throw any darts at her target. Dr. Smith began removing the

target from the wall.

Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus. Needless to

say a hush fell over the room as each student viewed the mangled

picture of Jesus; holes and jagged marks covered His face and

His eyes were pierced.

It was then that Dr. Smith said only these words... 'Assuredly,

I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least

of these My brethren, you did it to Me.'

( Matthew 25:40. ) No other words were necessary; as tears

filled eyes of the students, as they focused only on the mangled

picture of Jesus Christ. ( Author Unknown )

Thanks Ronnie for that. Yes, the Lord wants us to pray for the enemy in our life, and in the lives of our children. The Lord wants us to led my example, that the Lord is Alive, and The Lord will prevail over any enemy, I know the Lord, doesn't want us to turn any person away, but draw them nearer to him. Jesus Loves all People, and we have to do the same, Jesus didn't turn anyone away either. I pray we all feel this way. In Jesus Name Amen

Hey standers, Just wanted you all to know that even though I have been gone for a while I still pray for you all everyday. Sometimes we all just need to step away from the circumstances, the bad news, and our daily comfort zones before we are beaten down to far. As of late I have been spending...
