I haven't heard from you that much , but your story about the preacher running out of gasoline and the tanker truck, symbolizing all God has available for us, will always be with me. I even told my brother the story and we both could feel the Spirit in it. And you and Mother Swilley's sermons on Healing and Mercy. This is the fruit of the Spirit in which the lives of the very Ecclesia will Save the Universe. Both of you are mighty in anointing, your voices even modulated to the chords of angels as you speak Oracles of God all of your days.<BR/><BR/>Thank you also for raising this guard and honest guide, a pastor of pastors, a healer to the broken hearted, who is co-working with the Great Tenderhearted Shepard, setting the pagan and the pharisee free with Revelation Love in the knowledge of Christ Jesus. May God always keep your hearts broken and safe in His.Son of Zadokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10730598365284738623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-1756648262923724042008-08-29T21:44:00.000-04:002008-08-29T21:44:00.000-04:00Happy Birthday Rev. Swilley and Happy Anniversary ...Happy Birthday Rev. Swilley and Happy Anniversary to you both. May I say that since you two have been honorary members, I look for you every Sunday and I watch to see your reactions to Bishop's silliness and his cleverness and his recital of the Color Purple and just how much you two absolutely adore him. <BR/><BR/>And I kind of get him more because you are there and it blesses me to see the strength that you two have as one and how you are living epistles written on our hearts and on your sons. <BR/><BR/>Father Swilley, there is such an incredible strength that you carry within and yet I feel the heart of servant willing to lay his life down eternally for the gospel. And this is going to sound silly but for all of those Sunday's the Holy Spirit had you cry, I felt you and I understood that only the Holy Ghost can move you like that when you love Him so much.<BR/><BR/>And to Mother Swilley, you are cute and funny and bubbly and wise and you really do redefine 70. What a wonder you are for us to aspire to be. And you display where Bishop got his humor from and his sweetness.<BR/><BR/>We love you too and glad that God loaned you to us for this season.<BR/><BR/>Many blessings of Peace and prosperity and health!<BR/><BR/>love YveYvehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16515170728610456601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-85768794213748966332008-08-29T14:01:00.000-04:002008-08-29T14:01:00.000-04:00HAPPY Birthday Pastor Swilley and Blessings for th...HAPPY Birthday Pastor Swilley and Blessings for this also being your anniversary!

I haven't been on in such a long time because well words are hard to come by these days for me.. when u really live in the moment you can become quite forgetful...also I have been in this place of nothingness.. for lack of a better word... many ppl say they want to not be moved by what they see but its a strange place to be that leaves you completely paralyzed.. If it is really no longest you that lives nothing you see really affects you.. strange place.. I know that something is up for this weekend and think its interesting that this sunday is my birthday. also a strange thing is happening because I have a friend visiting me and its odd because we are very connected in the spirit.. By Gods divine appt I flew in for her birthday this same year and it was a fantastic weekend totally orgastrated By God it was also Easter weekend and im sure u remember that service was off the chain... My uncle called me up and sent me a plane ticket to see my family and such but it was really an act of God... I am probably so all over the place so forgive me... but the point is this weekend is special I am totally in tune.. i have no clue where were going but im in the boat.. and sometimes silence is the best thing you can do to not get yourself in the way.. if you know what i mean.. This is such a good year and i am so pleased with where i am and where im going.. that being typed as a member of this great congregation and being under your covering I know that you probably feel somethings up as well...dgm2007https://www.blogger.com/profile/10081511927246532035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-24877668168469724112008-08-29T07:38:00.000-04:002008-08-29T07:38:00.000-04:00Congratulations Kyle on your success last night. ...Congratulations Kyle on your success last night. I see where you guys will be playing Mississippi State on 9-20. I hope you do well and are safe. Nothing personal, but I naturally hope that State does better,...you understand,....nothing personal.<BR/>Happy Birthday Pastor Swilley and Happy Anniversary Pastors Swilley.<BR/>Bishop I remember the MLK sermon from when it was originally presented. It was inspiring then and continues to be.<BR/>Yesterday when I watched the speech on YouTube I noticed a link to Dr. King's final speech and watched it again also.<BR/>Folks, that is eerie. He knew that he was at the end of his journey. Having read about him and listened to some of his speeches it is always difficult and inspiring at the same time to see that speech. Truly he was/is one of the greatest men to ever grace this planet.Donaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06539338756284929311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96114027914038785.post-35359242500525051902008-08-29T05:34:00.000-04:002008-08-29T05:34:00.000-04:00What a blessing to be in this place and time with ...What a blessing to be in this place and time with your parents Bishop.
