@faith20 Thank you brother! I agree with you.
For already some time ago God started speaking about how it's time for me, and us as Church, to start taking Him serious. That, to follow Him is not a "childs game", it's something to take serious, be careful about.
He is looking for a people who are ready to leave everything else behind, who put Him first and will consider everything else as secondary. Not looking to and thursting for the idols and things of this world, but to only have eyes and a thurst for Him!
His will be done, not my own.
To follow Christ is not just about understanding what God has done for me, but also about how I respond to it. The Word needs to become flesh, to become a reality in my life, so that it will ultimately consume everything I am.
"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me." - Gal. 2:20.
@sinbach What a WONDERFUL idea to add CHOCOLATE to the list of necessities to give to the refugees at the border! Praise God for the truckload of chocolate going to the 🇺🇦 border in Poland!!! 🙌 🙌 🙌

Let's keep our eyes on Jesus. HE is the Victor! There is so much brokeness in this world. I was driving to an appointment with a sister from my local fellowship and learned that someone had been shot near the intersection at the end of our block. After this appointment I'm supposed to visit an elderly lady who called me and is feeling suicidal. I did speak to her to let her know I plan to come soon and she assured me she will be there. Jesus is our only hope in this world!
@Pablito Hola Pablito! Hopefully people will know it's not your birthday this Tues. We'll have to wait for Dec.! 🤣
We are living in an era in which there is no time to prepare for an event that happens another one even worse than the previous one.
May God prepare His entire Church to align with the prophetic times we are living in. It is no longer time to "be on a cruise ship".
Stiamo vivendo in un'epoca nella quale non si fa in tempo a prepararsi ad un evento che ne succede un altro ancora peggiore del precedente.
Che Dio possa preparare la Sua Chiesa intera ad allinearsi ai tempi profetici che stiamo vivendo. Non è più tempo di "stare su una nave da criciera".
Tuesday is my birthday. Tonight we celebrated it. Family and church friends came. We moved into our cul de sac at the first of the year. We invited some neighbors and the young lady that carries our mail. Some neighbors came, so did our mail courier. We are interceding for these neighbors and the mail carrier that the Holy Spirit will draw them to Christ, bring repentance to their soul and establish them deeply into the heart of Christ. I challenge you all to use special events to develop relationships with people who need Christ.

Watch until the end for lively discussion, interchange, prophetic declarations among CMM Oasis Members. Here are Prakash Daniel's Notes for further study: There are many accounts of people in the Bible, like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, David, Naomi, and Esther, that went through seasons much as Solomon described in Ecclesiastes 3. In this study, we will focus on Joseph, Jacob's eleventh son. https://youtu.be/3pXNIiuS_sE

@sinbach Agreed Eugene! This is the opposite for sure! Lord have mercy on the millions of poor innocents.
@tanjaostman Hi again, I wanted to comment on the actual article that you posted from the Daily Mail. Tanja, I know you love the Lord and this is in no way a criticism of you personally. You are a sister in Christ! This is an indictment of the Daily Mail for publishing such an article:
If I could speak to them personally, I would tell them that this article is totally sensationalist and it is clear from the way that it was written that the motivation for writing it is to capitalize on the number of views they will receive because they are exposing the downfall of a famous ex-model. I would explain to them that the detail they went into documenting this is repulsive for lack of a better term. They are well aware that thousands will be drawn into reading this kind of article.
I would explain to them that we live in a world that defines success in terms of money & fame which is a lie. I would share the good news of the Gospel with them.
Thank you very much for letting me share.
(continued)
There is a category of people who are homeless and don't want to go into the shelter. I have met several homeless people who have told me that. The details get sticky because you don't know who's right and who's wrong. We know that they're desperately lost and they need Jesus.
May we be strong Christians and the light of Christ for such a time as this.
@tanjaostman Hi Tanja, my message is a bit long so I'm going to split it up into segments. Unfortunately, drug addiction is a huge problem in the U.S. and as I'm sure you know, it will ruin anyone's life no matter who they are and what their life was like before. The common thing that draws people to drugs is that they are desperately lost and looking for that which only God can fulfill.
She is no more lost than she was before - it has taken a different form and yes, it is so tragic to see the ravages of sin in someone's life. We don't have to look farther than our own life! While Loni Willison is still alive, there's still hope for her to come to the Lord. We can pray for that.
I live in California but I have no idea of the answer to your question about whether it's harsher in this state.
As we look around, we see evidences of this fallen world everywhere. We know that everyone living outside of Jesus Christ is in darkness. The details differ but it's all darkness.

So many BTJ partners have responded to the crisis in the Ukraine!

Sinner saved by grace. Christ in me, the Hope of Glory!!! Like Richard & Sabina Wurmbrand, I was Jewish-born but not practicing. Former Buddhist nun. The Lord delivered me out of darkness and I was born again at age 55 (am 67 now). I live in California. On Christ the Solid Rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand - all other ground is sinking sand. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." 2Co 5:17
