Prayer and The Word

Would you visit our PFT list and faithfully intercede for LaJuanna? She is receiving kidney dialysis and awaiting results from a kidney biopsy to determine how much chemo she will need. Many prayers for her would not be wasted and if you are interested in sending her cards of encouragement, please email me for her address.

Betty is improving; she thanks us for our prayers and asked that we continue.

Word for Debbie was excellent – benign! She’s home continuing to recover; let us continue to pray for her.

June’s surgery went well; however it is cancer and we know that means much prayer is needed.

And an extra prayer for me today would feel good.  And if you have some specifics you want me to pray over with you, just send me an email.

James 5:16 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

2 Samuel 7:
21 For the sake of Your word, and according to Your own heart, You have done all this greatness to let Your servant know.
22 For this reason You are great, O Lord GOD; for there is none like You, and there is no God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
via 2 Samuel 7 NASB – David Plans to Build a Temple Now it – Bible Gateway.

You always hear us, ABBA, and You always answer. Thank You in and through JESUS, our Saviour. Amen and amen.

Compost Pineapples

Well, it’s been Monday all day long! That’s catch up day from the weekend. And just so you will know — I’m not caught up.

I visited my compost bin today, most often for a long while now my beloved has been the one to take our contributions, but today I made the trek out back and you know what I found?

Life.

Life in a bin of decaying food scraps. Actually Jerry previously told me they were out there and today I went to see for myself. Not that I did not believe him, just wanted to see for myself, you know. And in truth there are four of them out there growing with no effort from us other than dumping into the bin the tops we whacked off four pineapples (at various times, not all at once) we brought home from our local food establishment.

Life in a dump. Who’d thought it? Goes to show if there’s a spark of life even in stinky surroundings something new can grow. That’ll preach don’t you think?

Isaiah 43:19 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
19 “Behold, I will do something new, Now it will spring forth; Will you not be aware of it? I will even make a roadway in the wilderness, Rivers in the desert.
via Isaiah 43:19 NASB – Behold I will do something new Now it – Bible Gateway.

Here are some pics. Three pictures are worth three thousand words. :)

So tell me, God doing something new in your life even amid some stinky stuff? Keep looking for those pineapples. You know the HOLY SPIRIT is all about producing fruit. :)

Time Passing

Sunday evening is winding down and I’m here for a quick hello I think. Another full weekend at the Thompson house – so blessed and grateful.

Can you believe it? September 26, 2011. More and more I am thinking about the passing of time and how precious and purposeful ABBA intends for our lives to be. What is that line? We’ve only one life, it soon will be past, only what’s done for Christ will last. Either I did not know or I’d forgotten whichever the case, this poem is new to me tonight. Please use this link – click HERE and take in C.T. Studd’s poem: Only What’s Done for Christ will last.

I think one of my favorite stanzas of the poem is this one:

Oh let my love with fervor burn, And from the world now let me turn;
Living for Thee, and Thee alone, Bringing Thee pleasure on Thy throne;
Only one life, “twill soon be past, Only what’s done for Christ will last.

See that line bringing Thee pleasure on Thy Throne? I like imagining myself doing that. Do you?

A verse to ponder today:

Micah 6:8 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
8 He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?
via Micah 6:8 NASB – He has told you O man what is good And – Bible Gateway.

People need us to be praying. Click HERE and see who. I am adding a name – Penni.
