And He spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; Yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. And shall not God avenge His own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though He bear long with them? I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man comes, shall He find faith on the earth?

Luke 18:1-8

 

Good Morning Beloved,

 

 

I’ll let you in on a secret…. I have a goofy side… OK, to those who know me … it’s not a secret.  I love Tim Allen movies.  One of my favorites was ”Galaxy Quest”… a movie about a group of Star Trek-like actors, who inadvertently get caught up in a real cosmic dilemma involving aliens and have to save the world.  It was too cute.  One of the lines that stuck out for me was “never give up, never surrender”.  I thought wow… that’ll preach.  We all have plenty of opportunities to quit.  After we have discerned that this (whatever your ‘this‘ is) is truly something to go after, lock down on it like a pit bull and don’t let it go!  Pray.  We can never weary God by coming to Him in faith… He loves it…

For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward Him. 

[2 Chronicles 16:9]

 

 

 

 

  ….and that there is Good News!

Father, in the Name of Your precious Son Jesus… God we thank You for who You are to us.  On this day Father, when so many are mourning and remembering the attack on our nation, we ask that Your Presence completely overshadow us.  Touch and comfort those who were directly affected.  Those who lost loved ones, family, friends, co-workers.  Those who were themselves in the attacked buildings.  Remember those who still have nightmares and paralyzing fear even to this day.  Those who are physically healed, but mentally ill. Remember my son in the Lord Jonathan, protect him and deliver him let him feel the warmth of Your presence and heal his heart.  Take the sting out of the pain of what his young eyes saw on that day.  I pray for complete restoration for him, his friends and all of those who stand in the need of a touch from You.  In the matchless name of Jesus I pray…. and it is so… I love You… AMEN.  

 



Here SHE is, the USS New York, made from the World Trade Center!

 
It was built with 24 tons of scrap steel from the World Trade Center.  It is the first in a new class of warships – designed for missions that include special operations against terrorist.  It will carry a crew of 360 sailors and 700 combat-ready marines to be delivered ashore by helicopters and assault craft.  Steel from the World Trade Center  was melted in a foundry in AMite, LA  to cast the ship’s bow section.  When it was poured into the molds on Sept 9, 2003, ‘those big rough steelworkers treated it with total reverence,’ recalled Navy Capt. Kevin Wensing, who was there. ‘It was a spiritual moment for everybody there.’ Junior Chavers, foundry operations manager, said that when the trade center steel first arrived, he touched it with his hand and the ‘hair on my neck stood up.’ ‘It had a big meaning to it for all of us,’ he said. ‘They knocked us down. They can’t keep us down. We’re going to be back.’
The ship’s motto? ‘Never Forget’
 

You Blessed!

Have A Fabulous Day

Regina
