Heaven

May 18, 2014

Thinking about Heaven today. Many have gone on before and we miss them, but Jesus did not leave us without hope. He is preparing a beautiful place for us where we can see Him face to face and be united with family, friends and loved ones who are there. May the reality of Heaven bring you comfort.

John 14:2-3
In my Father’s house are many mansions:if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Jesus is Dead

April 19, 2014

Jesus is dead. All hope is gone. The disciples, Joseph of Aramethia, the many women who followed Him, prepared to go on with life without Him. The rulers still feared Him and ordered the grave to be guarded.
These people, human like we are, had various emotions the day Jesus died and the 3 days following. Lack of faith, we might think.
What would we have done? Probably the same thing. But wait! Morning is coming!
As we wait for tomorrow, let us meditate on Jesus and the great sacrifice He gave for us, so we can be saved.

Hebrews 2:9
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

Jesus Paid It All

April 16, 2014

“When the Lord Jesus Christ became my surety . . . He went to Calvary’s cross, and all my guilt was charged against Him. He settled for everything, and then He cried, ‘It is finished.’ And on the basis of that finished work, God can freely forgive, and justify completely, every poor sinner who trusts in the Lord Jesus Christ.” ~ Dr. Harry A. Ironside

This quote is from a great preacher who is probably forgotten or never heard of by most young Christians, but he knew how to explain that our sins are completely forgiven by the death of Jesus on the cross. Jesus paid for all our sins on the cross and all we have to do is repent, admit to him that we need forgiveness, believe that He paid for ALL our sins and ask Him to forgive our sins and make our lives new.

Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Tornado Warning

March 8, 2014

Events like fairs, flea markets and other outside activities depend on the weather to bring in the crowds.
On Thursday this week, the weather report was not good. Tornado watches and warnings were broadcast most of the day. Rain came down and the wind blew.
SOS staff had prayed for good weather for Strawberry Festival and now we have Tornado warnings. Nobody will come to Strawberry Festival in this weather was my thought.
Our booth is inside a stone building, only one of 2 permanent buildings that are on Strawberry Festival property.
Where would people go to get out of this horrible weather? Inside the safest building they could find. Ten precious souls were saved on Thursday in just 4 hours.
My faith was small but God turned that bad situation into a BIG blessing.

Matthew 8:26
And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

Answer To Prayer

February 24, 2014

“Prayer is asking; the answer to prayer is receiving.”
John R. Rice
Thank everyone who prayed for SOS training yesterday. There were 24 people who took the training and most signed up to witness in the booth at Strawberry Festival.
Keep praying with us for a few more workers and souls to be saved.
We are expecting God to answer in great measure.

Matthew 21:22
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

All Things Are Possible

January 30, 2014

Seen on a church sign:
Faith makes things possible
Not easy
Mark 9:23
Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
