Today I share an absolutely awesome devotional poem by Ruth from the Isle of Man (UK).

My kids helped me write this song many years ago. We finally recorded it together this year.

My hubby found out last night that he will no longer be able to supervise therapists (working toward finishing their hours) onsite at a large church run counseling center here in So. California! This because he will not comply with the jab mandates...my heart is heavy! If the church will not stand, who will?! I don’t have a lot of hope in the recall of our governor today, but if you read this, please pray for freedom to come in some way to this state.
Please pray for believers who live in extreme poverty, inspite of surrounded by rich Natural resources . Aldo pray for
Super rich leaders, who live in prosperity without caring for their poor community members.
Pray for change in attitude of leaders who oppose our team's ministry of equipping believers for the fulfillment of Great Commission .
Often folk ask "what makes a great Christian?" thinking it may be prayer, bible knowledge or even charity. In this devotional an old man of God tells us what really matters.

@weavers4jesus oh, my gosh!! This makes me cry for him! May our great and awesome Creator shower his poor man with love, calm his fear and cause every nerve ending to go numb until his body is completely healed.
@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter may our Lord calm the waters, carry the boats, and strengthen every servant physically and spiritually to deliver the gospel to those that live in darkness. Lord, plz open their hearts to receive your life giving words.
@tanjaostman it sounds much worse than it was. no one was worried, so I didn't worry. everyone found it humorous. it was just Turkey flexing their muscles.
As for being afraid....hmmmmm....
I'm an empty nester now, I have raised two amazing boys, loved and been loved by an amazing woman, have friends that I would lay down my life for, and have witnessed the power of God more times than I deserve.
i've lived 10 lives and am now more than twice the age my father lived to be, so when my time comes, they will not be able to keep me from smiling.
The real danger is not the choppy waters or the leaking boat!
If fear is keeping you away from people in need who have never heard the Salvation message, the Master will say one day " I never knew you " (Mattew 7:21-23).
It is not the will of the Father, even children to perish without Jesus (Mattew 18:14).
Pray for those who are winning souls, not counting the dangers.
@tanjaostman I asked a loaded question, but I asked it of myself first. It seems as though God has put amazing natural healing power in us no matter what terrible disease comes along, there are always many who survive it. In a way, this is miraculous, but people always want to look at the ones who died and say, "see!" as if to discredit God. They rarely say, "See! God does what he says." But then there is James chapter 5 about praying for the sick believer. The only requirement is Faith. "..and the sick WILL get well. And if he had comitted any sins, he will be forgiven." Is this miraculous? No matter how you look at it, it all goes back to the Supernatural and Christ. In a way, all healing is miraculous.
I will look at your link, now.
How is this possible? Entire village destroyed by record floods, but no Chinese Christians or their property were harmed.

@sinbach Wow! Amazing!
A team travelling through region infested with wild animals especially Elephants, reporting similar stories.
Mammoths destroying paddy fields all around, but sparing the fields of believers
One place a Church planter, sat on a chair in front of an Elephant and commanded it to just eat the leaves of banana plant, not to eat the fruit! The elephant obeyed.
Thank God for revealing His Glory by protecting the properties of our Chinese brethren.
Hallelujah!
