About 18 months ago we started a little shop that sold women's accessories to women living in war torn areas of Iraq. No one really expected it to do much business, but women are simply amazing. Even during war, they still have an innate desire to be pretty and prepare for weddings, events, etc. Perhaps it brings a bit of normalcy to a horrible situation? IDK....
SALES SKYROCKETED. Little did we know that our small shop would grow SO much SO fast.
When we started, our shop was so small that we didn't even give it a name, but that little nameless shop has grown over 2,000% and is branching out and franchising into different nations - ALL with female management from war torn areas - and I am proud to announce that we NOW have a name...and it is the best name EVER:
MINNA - simply the prettiest name I know.
@tanjaostman i love the journey we go on we hear, see and follow Jesus
Andy B
@tanjaostman this was great
Listened to the whole thing (I'm English - her English was great). Thanks for sharing it!!
So encouraging to hear about how people find Jesus as the central theme in their lives, and the journey to allowing Jesus to fill them (and all of us that follow Him) with His Joy.

@KarlGessler just looked up Gab on wikipedia. their description shouted how good Gab must really be to earn such scorn from such a source lol
i loved how they described it as responsible for various 'bad things' but didn't mention the worse atrocities organised through facebook and twitter
that said it all - will be looking at joining Gab when i get a moment 🙂

@KarlGessler is this gonna be a weekly thing now?
we prayed daily for it, once you let us know - looking forward to thanking God for doing a work in our Live, daily, prayer times.
praying, indeed, for the coming week - any names to specifically pray for? or situations?

Please pray for my son Brandon for healing!!!!
He needed to get a nose blockage opening surgery and tonsils out as he had a problem that was making him quite sick and there were no other options. 😭 The pain is unreal- having both done at the same time.
He has been experiencing a VERY DIFFICULT time. I feel so badly for him. He is trying to be as cheerful as he can while bleeding from his nose and phlegm from the mouth and the pain of both surgeries. He also has fever.
Someone asked if there is anything that they can do to help and yes...there will be extra costs involved for him, and as you know because of a severe lockdown here in China, he has been unable to work. So, if you feel led to help it would take a weight if worry off his mind ❤️ As a family man with two little babies and wife.

Life for Christians in China is a whole lot like it was many years ago. Now they must truly count the cost!
For all of you living in Free Countries..... remember those who are in bonds around the world for their faith ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏

Missionaries in Myanmar: Part 2
All missionaries are suffering the misery of this greatly. My faithful missionary friend has a wife who is about to give birth,and there is no hospital opened.He said to me they would deliver the baby themselves in their small house by trusting God.
I have two small little girls, one is two years, and another is six months; I don’t care if I don’t have food to eat, but I think much for them and their safety. May you continue to uphold us in your prayer for our safety, provision, and protection.Soldiers are catching people from every house, and now they are near to us. Please pray for us.”

Missionaries in Myanmar: PART 1
“Dear loving Brethren,
I am writing this Report with a broken and trembling heart.My eye is filled with sadness and tears of hurt. First of all I want to beg you to pray for our safety and protection.
The military has taken control and is killing civilians. Everyday we needed to collect dead bodies on the road with tears and pains.Banks are being shut down, and it isn’t easy to get online.
Everywhere is filled with smoke and fire as factories are burned and destroyed.Thousands of people don’t have work,food,and a place to stay now.Almost all of our church members ran back to their village. There is neither market nor a shop where we can buy food because every road is blocked.How long will we last if it continues like this!?
Just a while ago, the soldiers’ truck came and stopped near our house. We were terrified; they captured six people who were having tea in the shop. God is my only Hope.
@KarlGessler can you let us know how it goes on Friday?
Prayed thie afternoon (UK afternoon anyway!) and will pray tomorrow and Friday PM
Andy B

#GoDeeper
GoDeeper with Andy B, who talks about keeping a good balance between spiritual exercise and physical exercise.
#GoDo
Steven & Nathan give us 3 challenges for the week ahead in #GoDo:
Read:
1. Steven gives us the Scriptures to read; 1 John 1 and 1 Timothy 4
Reflect:
2. Nathan challenges us to spend time with God to look at where we’re doing too much physical exercise and not enough spiritual exercise.
Remember:
3. Steven encourages us to remember to prioritise training for Godliness when we plan our day.
Respond:
Nathan suggests we take a moment next time we’re exercising to pause and thank God we are able to.
