We need everyone's help! Here are 3 steps you can take to change our nation's future:"

NewLife.com: Bearing Each Other’s Burdens

NewLife.com: Bearing Each Other’s Burdens: "Bearing Each Other’s Burdens

by Steve Arterburn
Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2

We are called to walk alongside others on the journey of disciple­ship. We serve our brothers and sisters by helping them stay on or return to the path of faithfulness. And we also serve them by
making sure we continue in faithfulness. Self-neglect and irre­sponsibility impose an unfair burden on your brother and sister in Christ, because they’re responsible to help you.

The body of Christ is not a place of self-sufficiency. It’s time we quit believing those lies we’ve been listening to for so long. The Christian faith is not each person looking out for him or herself. Nor is it the survival of the fittest. The body of Christ is a place of interdependency. When you share the troubles and problems of others, you’re fulfilling the law of love. Our burdens bring us together! As you call on others to help you bear your burdens, you will find your love and appreciation growing. Your weaknesses call forth other’s strengths. And when others call on you, you have the opportunity to be an agent of God’s mercy and grace, looking for nothing in return.

Do you know someone who is under a heavy burden at this time? Whatpractical way can you come alongside that person and help him or her bear it? Prayerfully consider what God may be calling you to do, then step forward and do it.

“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.” - Charles Dickens(1812-1870"

Palin: Iraq war 'a task that is from God' - Yahoo! News

Palin: Iraq war 'a task that is from God' - Yahoo! News: "ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told ministry students at her former church that the United States sent troops to fight in the Iraq war on a 'task that is from God.'
ADVERTISEMENT

In an address last June, the Republican vice presidential candidate also urged ministry students to pray for a plan to build a $30 billion natural gas pipeline in the state, calling it 'God's will.'

Palin asked the students to pray for the troops in Iraq, and noted that her eldest son, Track, was expected to be deployed there.

'Our national leaders are sending them out on a task that is from God,' she said. 'That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that plan is God's plan.'

A video of the speech was posted at the Wasilla Assembly of God's Web site before finding its way on to other sites on the Internet."

The Scars of Life

THE SCARS OF LIFE

Love is when God became man.'

Some years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks, and shirt as he went. He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator was swimming toward the shore.

His father, working in the yard, saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In utter fear, he ran toward the water, yelling to his son as loudly as he could.

Hearing his voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his father. It was too late. Just as he reached his father, the alligator reached him.

From the dock, the father grabbed his little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the father, but the father was much too passionate to let go.

A farmer happened to drive by, heard his screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator..

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived His legs were extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his father's fingernails dug into his flesh in his effort to hang on to the son he loved.

The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy after the trauma, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, 'But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Dad wouldn't let go.'

You and I can identify with that little boy. We have scars, too. No, not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But some wounds, my friend, are because God has refused to let you go. In the midst of your struggle, He's been there holding on to you.

The Scripture teaches that God loves you. You are a child of God. He wants to protect you and provide for you in every way. But sometimes we foolishly wade into dangerous situations, not knowing what lies ahead. The swimming hole of life is filled with peril - and we forget that the enemy is waiting to attack. That's when the tug-of-war begins - and if you have the scars of His love on your arms, be very, very grateful. He did not and will not ever let you go.

Please pass this on to those you love. God has blessed you, so that you can be a blessing to others. You just never know where a person is in his/her life and what they are going

Through. Never judge another person's scars, because you don't know how they got them. Also, it is so important that we are not selfish, to receive the blessings of these messages, without forwarding them to someone else

Right now, someone needs to know that God loves them, and you love them, too - enough to not let them go

The secrets to Limbaugh's success

The secrets to Limbaugh's success: "The secrets to Limbaugh's success

Editor's note: As WND reported, Greg Laurie lost his son Christopher in a traffic accident Thursday. Heartfelt condolences from the WorldNetDaily staff go out to Greg and his family. This column was written earlier this week, before Thursday's tragedy.

This column is one in a series of WND tributes this week to Rush Limbaugh by our columnists in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of his national radio program Aug. 1.

As a pastor for over 35 years, I'd like to put forth the proposition that Rush Limbaugh is one of the most effective preachers in America – if not the world – today.

'Hold on!' you might protest. 'I don't even know if Limbaugh attends church, much less is a preacher!'"

NewLife.com: Seeking God's Plans

NewLife.com: Seeking God's Plans: "by Steve Arterburn
“For I know the plans I have for you”—[this is] the Lord’s declaration— “plans for [your] welfare, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11 HCSB

Why did God put me here?” It’s a simple question to ask and, at times, a very complicated question to answer.

As you seek to discover (or perhaps, to rediscover) God’s plan for your life, you should start by remembering this: You are here because God put you here, and He did so for a very good reason: His reason.

At times, you may be confident that you are doing God’s will. But on other occasions, you may be uncertain about the direction that your life should take. At times, you may wander aimlessly in a wilderness of your own making. And sometimes, you may struggle mightily against God in a vain effort to find success and happiness through your own means, not His. But wherever you find yourself—whether on the mountaintops, in the valleys, or at the crossroads of life—you may be assured that God is there . . . and you may be assured that He has a plan.

If you manage to align yourself with God’s plan for your life, you will be energized, you will be enthused, and you will be blessed. That’s why you should strive mightily to understand what it is that God wants you to do. But how can you know precisely what God’s intentions are? The answer, of course, is that even the most well- intentioned believers face periods of uncertainty and doubt about the direction of their lives. So, too, will you.

When you arrive at one of life’s inevitable crossroads, that’s the moment when you should turn your thoughts and prayers toward God. When you do, He will make Himself known to you in a time and manner of His choosing. When you discover God’s plan for your life, you will experience abundance, peace, joy, and power— God’s power.

And that’s the only kind of power that really matters.

One of the wonderful things about being a Christian is the knowledge that God has a plan for our lives. Warren Wiersbe

If God declares what it means to be human, then our lives are not the meaningless collections of unrelated events they so often appear to be. Stanley Grenz

Character builder
God has a wonderful plan for your life. And the time to start looking for that plan—and living it—is now. And remember— discovering God’s plan begins with prayer, but it doesn’t end there. You’ve also got to work at it."

DavidJeremiah.org Devotional

DavidJeremiah.org - Magazine: "Greater Works? Greater Prayer!

If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
John 15:7

0708 mag lg cont
“If a little’s good, a lot’s got to be better.” You’ve probably applied that principle at times in your life and found it’s not always true. For example, a small amount of pie is good, but a lot is fattening. A small dose of fertilizer helps a plant grow, but a lot will kill it. A little ingredient in a recipe makes it perfect, but a lot makes it a disaster. But there are some areas of life where a lot is always better: prayer, for example.

Jesus once told His disciples something that no doubt amazed them: They would do greater works than He had done. He was leaving the earth and returning to heaven and was commissioning them to continue His words and works—but on a grander scale! While they were pondering that revelation, He told them how it would be possible: through prayer. The works (John 14:12) can only be accomplished through prayer (John 14:13). Imagine the kinds of works we could do if we prayed more than we do! Prayer is an area of the spiritual life where a lot is always better.

If you would like to accomplish greater works for Christ in your life, try starting with prayer. The greater the prayer to God, the greater the works for God.

The average church knows more about promotion than prayer.
Leonard Ravenhill"

Happy (belated) Father's Day and a Tribute to my Uncle Jack

Dear Extended Family of the King Branch,

Please forgive me for taking a month the forward this message to you.
Please click here:
http://hihohome.blogspot.com/2008/06/happy-fathers-day.html
This is a tribute from my Cousin Heidi to my Uncle Jack for Father's Day.

Uncle Jack is 80 this year.
A gathering is planned next weekend to commemorate the event.
I am told second-hand that there is an open invitation to extended family members to some part of the event.
I do not have all of the details, but it is at the Yacht Club near Buffalo.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend.
However, I would love to reunite with my Uncle Jack someday.

Kind Regards,
Daniel K. "Dan" King
