@Olamide @MaryMamuzich welcome back Brother!
@farmerjohn @bethany @sinbach 🤣 🤣 🤣 this is pure gold Bethany 🤣 🤣 🤣
In the last year, I have heard so many people who do not go to church teach me what Jesus would do. It has been really nice.
Wear a mask. that is what Jesus would do.
Keep six feet apart. That is what Jesus would do.
Stay home, save lives, that is what Jesus would do.
Don't go to church, that is DEFINITELY what Jesus would do.
Do not visit the sick, sit with the lonely, or console those grieving the death of a loved one because that is after all what Jesus would do. That is how Christians show love.
Do you not remember the parable of Jesus telling the sick to stay six feet away?
YES! Indeed! Jesus showed true Christian love to the leper by telling them to be safe, stay away from the village, and die alone.
Who knew that all that was needed to show love to those with leprosy was a mask and stay 6 ft away?
But perhaps that is not a fair comparison of the love of Jesus, because leprosy was neither as deadly nor as contagious as Covid.
@bethany Thank you Bethany 🤩 This one goes right through my heart. In 2015 I was able to leave Egypt only through a "small" miracle - I dodged ISIS by an inch.
@sinbach I'm clueless, need to google Petra 🙂
#Prayer
Our Father, the challenges are great, and my efforts often feel fruitless and ineffective. I pray, dear Father, that You send more workers into the harvest fields to help with Your kingdom-building work.
I ask that You help me find joy in the welcome I receive from seeking and welcoming hearts. I ask that You give me the courage to trust in Your presence when I feel alone and ineffective.
Abba Father, also please send the Holy Spirit to my heart to help me rejoice because I know my efforts defeat Satan in the hearts of good and sweet people and that these same efforts bring the Lord Jesus deep and satisfying joy.
It is in His name, the Lord Jesus, that I pray. Amen.
@sinbach great podcast! 👍
This is my daughter Lisa, who has Placenta Accreta. Plz pray the placenta quits growing through the uterus and Lisa will suffer NO bleeding problems. She has had 2 miscarriages; this will be her 3rd child. Thank you for praying! This DD family is priceless... If we never meet in person I know we'll have a blast when we meet in Heaven! I truly love you all.
I have come to the conclusion that I have privilege.
I have inherited privilege from my Father that I did not earn.
I grew up with privilege in my life that I did not recognize till now.
I have so many privileges that I can't count them and even often forget that they are there.
I HAVE GOSPEL PRIVILEGE
I need to recognize that there are people in this world that do not have Gospel privilege as I have.
I am not ashamed of it. It is the Gospel that changes generations. It is the Gospel that keeps families together. It is the Gospel that blesses families and nations.
As a recipient of this privilege I have a duty to share with those that do not have it so that they too may have the same privileges that I have received. (Acts 10:34)
@Chickadee Amen!! Healing and protection for mom, Lisa and unborn child! Thank you for lifting us up!
HELP!!! Prayer Warriors!
My daughter is pregnant with her 3rd child. She is due in May... BUT she has Placenta Accreta; a serious condition where the placenta grows deeply into the wall of the uterus. In about a month, Lisa, my daughter, will travel 10 hours with her little family to Salt Lake City. She needs to spend a month under the watchful eye of the doctors. The precious baby will be delivered early April at 32 weeks (40 weeks is full term)
I know our Jesus can move mountains! I ask myself how I can know in my heart the power of God ...but lay awake thinking... Tossing in prayer.......
US Marine Corps just became the first service to adopt silencers for all it's infantry units.
Good move.
Staying at the tip of the spear.
As Christians perhaps we too could use some silencers in the enemy's territory? Less advertising of our activities to keep from giving heat signatures to the enemy. Silent operations to reach the loss to keep from drawing attention from enemy camp? Less noise so that team can hear commands of commander instead of chaos of battle? 🤔

Soooo let me show you something "special". Poland is a country with the catholicism as dominant religion. BUT throughout Poland you will see different regions mixing pagan (or just weird) practices with the catholic beliefs. Let me show you the "Dance with Holy paintings" competition.
It comes from far north of Poland, my brother in law lives there 😉

for people that are brave enough - try searching YouTube for "Harlem Shake ze swiętym obrazem (best polish harlem shake)"
@bethany I remember secretly traveling in Henan Province to see this location. The police were conducting road blocks that day looking for foreigners. I was hidden in the back of a car and when we arrived at the check point, the police checked every car - except for ours. They just waved us through!!!
This cave was used to train more than half of the leaders that I work with today and it was all dug out by hand.
Amazing amazing story.
@elasiewniak Hi Ela! follow @bethany to see the daily update
@messenjahofchrist "wpis" - this can be roughly translated as "entry", a word commonly used in Polish for blogs, a short blog article would be a "wpis"
@messenjahofchrist I switched to English interface and now I see it is really called a ding 🙂
