Let's take a good look at the way we're living and reorder
our lives under God. Let's lift our hearts and hands at one
and the same time, praying to God in heaven.
Lamentations 3:40-41
“Take this most seriously: A yes on earth is yes in heaven;
a no on earth is no in heaven. What you say to one another
is eternal. I mean this.”
Matthew 18:18
Let's just go ahead and be what we were made to be, without
enviously or pridefully comparing ourselves with each other,
or trying to be something we aren't.
Romans 12:6
Matthew 8:20
Following Jesus is not always easy or comfortable. Often
it means great cost and sacrifice, with no earthly rewards
or security. Jesus didn’t have a place to call home. You
may find that following Christ costs you popularity,
friendships, leisure time, or treasured habits. But while
the cost of following is high, the value of being Christ’s
disciple is even higher. Discipleship is an investment
that lasts for eternity and yields incredible rewards.
Malachi 3:3 says: "He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver."
This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God.
One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.
That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver.
As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities.
The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot; then she thought again about the verse that says: "He sits as a refiner and purifier of silver."
She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined.
The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.
The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, "How do you know when the silver is fully refined?"
He smiled at her and answered, "Oh, that's easy -- when I see my image in it"
If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that God has his eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His image in you.
Pass this on right now. This very moment, someone needs to know that God is watching over them.
And, whatever they're going through, they'll be a better person in the end.
I was an onion before Jesus set me free.
Layers upon layers of iniquity.
An ugly old onion whose fragrance was strong;
That my Jesus bought and loved all along.
Unknown to me what He was going to do.
Of what He was planning, I had not a clue.
Pulling each layer off one by one.
In order to make me more like Jesus the Son.
The first layer wasn't so bad.
I saw all the sins that I knew I had.
They were easy to fix, just change the way I talk.
And learn more of how He wanted me to walk.
Reading His Word, and learning again;
How to put aside my life of sin.
But the next layer was pulled which hurt more.
He was getting closer to the core.
Unknown what He would find there.
I simply gave it to Him in prayer.
As another layer was removed, He started to cry;
Pulling this layer brought pain to my Father on High.
And I was crying over the sadness I felt;
The brokenness and all of the guilt.
Past memories that I thought were gone;
They were buried under layers disguised in a fragrance so strong.
As onions peel more and more;
And they put tears in our eyes as we get close to the core;
So my Father wept over my pain;
Giving me a balm of comfort and strength to sustain.
"No More Layers." I would scream.
As He continued to peel them off of me.
"I'll have nothing left my Lord, what will I do?
I'll be nothing but a worthless core to You."
But He just said "Trust me," and continued to peel
I was sure He was blinded to my pain that was so real.
Year after year I shrunk more and more;
Until all that was left of this onion was a core.
It was then that I began to understand;
As the Lord embraced me in His Loving Hand.
He said, now and only now can you be;
The creation that will minister before Me.
Clothed with the righteousness only from above;
Gone are your layers of self so you can be filled with my love.
He took my layers of sin, hurt and pain;
And clothed me with love, truth and mercy in His name.
Yes, we are all onions, learning with each day;
How to overcome as each layer is taken away.
Some layers tear and pull at our heart;
While others grieve us to our innermost part.
But we are nothing but an ugly onion without Christ.
Layers upon layers of pride, sin and strife.
Only God can take those layers away.
And clothe us with His Righteousness in that final day.

♥ I LOVE JESUS.NOT BECAUSE I FIRST LOVED HIM
BUT BECAUSE HE FIRST LOVED ME ♥
I WILL SHARE WITH YOU MY TESTIMONY AS TO HOW AND WHY I BECAME "BORN AGAIN". I CAN NOW BE CONFIDENT THAT I WILL BE IN HEAVEN WHEN I DIE AND HAVE ETERNAL LIFE WITH MY HEAVENLY FATHER!!!!!
When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'." I'm whispering "I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven." When I say... "I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak And need His strength to carry on. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed And need God to clean my mess. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect, My flaws are far too visible But, God believes I am worth it. When I say... "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches So I call upon His name. When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not holier than thou, I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow
Hi, there! Stop by to show your support of my music by listening to and buying my two new singles off iTunes called, “The Singles.” Also, let me know how you are doing. And I’d really appreciate it if you’d add my new FACEBOOK music page: www.facebook.com/elizabethsouthmusic and new TWITTER: www.twitter.com/elisabethsouth Thank you so much for your support. :-)
Thank you for taking the time to check out my page. Hope you enjoyed a song or 2, let me know? If you like it, please demand it on my page and I hope you have a great week!!!! Candice
WOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO 2009 is here and its a big new year, new commitments, new grounds to reach, new hearts to impact, and its time to seek out the vision the Lord has for you and I!!!
Kollen, I pray that as you wake up each day, that God will impress on your heart to reach out, and allow God to use your gifts and talents to impact all those you come in contact with for Him.
God has amazed me each year as I travel all over the world, teaching, preaching and just loving on those I come in contact with. I look back and sometimes still in disbelief that God can use a hillbilly mountain boy from little ole Asheville, NC, to reach people from different cultures, lifestyles. Everyone is hurting in some way or manner, and its the responsibility of the body of Christ to love and encourage a hurting and dying world for Christ.
In 18 years now, God has taken me all over Europe, Asia, Australia, Fiji, South America, and still, it amazes me that I still run into people that have never heard of Christ, even here in America. So I ask you to partner up with me and Touch Ministries as we can make a huge difference in the life of a child or an adult just by loving on them as Christ has loved on us, Amen, because seeing a life change right before you because of Christ's love, is pretty much the most amazing thing you will ever see.
Please check out the website, and the pictures videos, road log to see what God is doing, and please share with me on my message Board all that God is doing with you to impact this world. Lets work together to make a difference, Amen.
