A Remarkable Gracious Beginning ...

Thank you for the many who were on the Forum call this evening. It was an honor and joy for me to be used to simply facilitate the call. You are all to be complimented on the gracious manner in which you call conducted yourselves while dialoging on some very difficult subjects. Thank you for the way you let the Lord communicate His passion and compassion through you that enabled all of us to heart the voice of God.

Being in sincere relationship means everything in the Kingdom of God! You have all opened the doors to your hearts and the Lord shown through them. May we each take time to call, email and pray for one another in the weeks and months ahead. Perhaps there was someone on the call that really connected with your heart and spirit . . . and you'd like to get to know them better. Call them. Email them. Let them know how you appreciate them and are praying for them.

Also be praying for Prop 8 and the assault that will be rising against it's implementation and intimidation against the Church in California. Please being praying for Rick Warren and his speaking/praying at President elect Obama's inauguration on January 20th. Pray there will be the raising up of strong Christian spiritual leaders who will be able to befriend President-elect Obama. The last item we mentioned and prayed over was the peace of Jerusalem and protection of Israel. Please continue to remember all these prayer points in the weeks ahead. And feel at liberty to share them with other praying friends.

God willing, we will open the Forum Call again on Monday evening, February 9th, at 7:30 pm . Please mark your calendar. Pray for others you might invite to be a part of that call. Meanwhile, I will send you a list of those who called in and email it out to you. The Lord bless you and keep you, and make His Face shine upon you. Peace to each and a very happy new year to all ! ~ Joe

"This is What I Expect from you ..."

John 13:34-35 (New Living Translation)

34 So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. 35 Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.”
