Bishop....I enjoy the great blogs and blog subjects...love today's quote. One that we all must stay mindful of, as it is much better for us to discuss ideas than people. I have enjoyed reading and ruminating ideas about what is posted here, and recently started to post. Thank you for the outlet and interchange of ideas here. God Bless You, Bish...
Good morning Cyber Siblings, I want to share something with you all today. I wanted to copy and past this here; it is great. but because of the strong copyright statement at the end I will just give you all the link. It's called "THE STATION". Some of you may have already read it as I had before, but it was very refreshing to read it again "today" You will see what I mean by the emphises when you read it.
What if, one day, you were counselling me to rattle the saber and I was adjuring you see oneness because of the iron sharpening that occurs here? Two miracles for the price of one.
One more and we would be saints in the Catholic church.
Ideas can move nations, for good or bad... Our country has a knack for forgiving & forgetting which is wonderful in a way, but can be harmful in others. Our public discourse often regresses into the third concept rather than raising itself up to discussions of The Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Gettysburg Address, etc. I loved John Kennedy's quote, "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." Victims always look for a handout, victors look for a way to pull others up as they pursue God. A man with a determined look and a quick step will draw attention and have in his wake those looking for a leader. As the bumper sticker says, "Either lead, follow, or get the H--- out of the way." Vascillation is swallowed up by the vortex of purpose. Action dissolves fear. Always loved the story of the leapers who decided finally to go to the enemy camp only to find it deserted and the spoils theirs. "Why sit we here til we die?" "Just Do It"- Nike
I also like, "He who forgets the past is destined to repeat it."
"I'd rather light a candle than curse the darkness."
"When someone is forced to give to another, it takes the blessings away from giver and receiver."
Look at what you have and bless it...you may have thought all you had was jars of water...
To go from capitalism to socialism, evolution plays a part. To go from socialism to capitalism, it takes a revolutuion. Some things took place today in our country, that might be a curse disguised as a blessing. I pray not. Socialism is a fear factor. Capitalism is a faith factor.
Hey all you bloggers and lovers out there. Everyone's still up here in Ohio trying to get it all together. Power is not back on for everyone yet, but its getting their. I Hear a lot of talk about the times with family, away from the creature comforts, being a blessing in disguise to many people. I remember telling my brother last month, if some type of tribulation does come to our land, all it will probably mean is that people will come to know their neighbors again. I haven't been able to keep up with the blog like I'd like this week, but I feel an overall texture in it of our desire to more perfectly fulfill our destinies. Truly we shall overcome! I really believe beyond all the revelation of doctrine we go through; beyond that, lies a more intimate, sincere, and powerful relationship with the Spirit. We are attaining this resurrection life. Keep centered on the goal and prize. Faithful in the little things. This Kingdom is just getting started!!!
Thinking about the Uganda trip this evening.
God pour out your heart and mind into ours. We are spiritual bondservants in your service Lord. Stand before your chosen ones with power and majesty. Let us not just go to be changed, but let Spirit Life be created between all those who meet. Every smile, every handshake, every labour, every word and deed. Lord I ask for a special visitation of your Spirit on this trip. We walk by faith , but as your friend I ask that you would distibute your cosmic annointing on these saints. Let your light shine through them unto good works, glorifying your name. Healing in their hands; You will cast the old man low and lift their hearts high, bringing your Spirit in resurrection power and life.
Amen
Some of the coolest characters in the Bible were to ones who helped Jesus with his first miracle. They picked up the pots and filled the vessels with water. Jesus, who is the great transformer, transformed the water into wine, even as he is changing us from water into wine. Praise God for those who carry the pots for Jesus and fill them with water. You are sharing in a great work of the Lord.
Thanks Bishop got yesterday's reply. There was a very sweet spirit in the House today. I pray safe journey on the mission team. May each of you go and come home with a new outlook. May you see that the miracle lives in you.
Today was full of blessings and hope. I pray the same for all of you.
"There's a kind of hush, all over the world- tonight..." "All's quiet on the Western front..." ...but..."there's a storm in the Heavens, wind of the Spirit startin' to blow...!" ...the sound of the abundance of rain... ...the sound of sons & daughters worshipping... ...He who began a good work in you is able to complete it!
...steps ordered, crooked ways made straight, high places brought low, He is exalted for out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks...
...a shining cloud instead of ashes ...a shining cloud instead of ashes ...and Glory in the face of despair...
There's an idea: I think, I'll just keep you as my Pasto/ Bishop for another fifty years.

Right on the Money.............BISHOP
Beautiful quote from a very wise and benevolent first lady. How right she was/is.
With her permission, as well as yours, may I take a little license and add...
-Open minds discuss diversity;
Enlightened minds discuss Oneness.-
Looking forward to Oct. 7.

have a great day,

Pastor Dennis, I just read The Station, so much truth. Thank you.
anon 9-18-08 8:14 YOU ARE NOW!
Peacemaker,
What if, one day, you were counselling me to rattle the saber and I was adjuring you see oneness because of the iron sharpening that occurs here? Two miracles for the price of one.

Ain't God Good?
Doubleback Alley,
I believe in miracles and a twofer dosen't sound too bad.
But lets leave them at two though; I don't even want to be a pastor, much less a saint.
Peace Bro,
PM

To the Uganda crew,
Go give what you got,
and
come back with what you get.
Can't wait to hear the stories.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
Ya'll come back now, ya hear...
