Please pray. For the last week, my wife has been in a deep depression due to the flood we've experienced, clean-up, fear for the future of our country, and, I think - me. This is not like her at all. She doesn't want to talk about it and we have fewer words each day.
Please Pray. Just received a call from my brother. He has received news he has Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus with signet ring. This is a fairly rare cancer with poor chance of recovery.
Doesn't matter. God heals. If God wants him home - my brother is ready.
Please Pray! John, a Man of God - 45 years old - a Kiwi and married to my wife's cousin - went to the hospital this morning - chest pains. Latest word - heart surgery necessary. Please pray for complete healing!
Please pray for one of my sons - who has decided that he only believes in a God of love - not a God of wrath who would send people to hell if they weren't good enough.
College education will do that. Smarter than God now.😬
Praise report.
Just found out today: Last week, my son was working on something in the bathroom that involved hydrochloric acid. My grand-daughter, age three, came into the bathroom and sees a glass full of clear liquid, grabs it and drinks it down before he noticed. She
Please pray for my nephew. Took his young daughters swimming at "The Swimming Hole" yesterday. They were after him to get in the water so he did a shallow (he thought) dive - and received an 8 inch head wound and crushed T2 through T6 vertebra. Is in the hospital undergoing
Please pray! Huge upset in our extended family. No good guys here. This is a burden more than we can bear - so we are turning it over to the Lord. Please pray!

You asked, "Should Police Officers be able to use Lethal Force if they are shot at?"
If you were a police officer who'd been shot at - you wouldn't have any question about this.
Please pray for my brother Dan. Writhing in pain yesterday with after-effects of radiation and chemo - unable to eat. Doctor says the worst of this should be over in a week.
What's Next Lord?
For the past 2 1/2 years, wife and I, cared for her mother in our home. This December - her mother went home to Jesus. Now wife has developed cysts on her ovaries.
Please pray for healing.

Pink says: "NEVER FXXKING LISTEN TO MY MUSIC AGAIN"
LOL! "Again" would indicate I had already listened to your music, knew your music, and had ever heard of you before - but OKAY.
Call last night, neighbor has spine operation today. Asked if I could drive him. Went over at 6:45 am. Took 40 minutes to get him ready. He could not walk - had to carry him to car - terrible pain. Got him to hospital 8am. Pray for Doug.
Getting no responses and very few posts on my feed. Are my posts that uninteresting (possible)?
Or is it that someone on X doesn't like my posts - again.
If you can see this - give me a thumbs-up.
Please pray. Just received word my 17 yr. old grandson - very allergic to poison ivy - unaware - went to a forest area where the undergrowth is almost nothing but poison ivy. He has been very sick - off school for a week.

"Sen. Chuck Schumer said on the Senate floor that Trump’s dinner with Nick Fuentes was “pure evil.”
What say you?"
Given the little I know about Chuck Schumer - my trust in his definition of good and evil - leaves something to be desired.
Please pray for Tim. Yesterday, his wife, Teresa, canceled a trip to see her mother as she was feeling unwell. At 5pm she left this life unexpectedly. Teresa is fine and with the Lord. Pray for Tim and family.
@GabeZZOZZ
You posted, "The media won't tell you this, but this is what genocide looks like ‼️ These aren’t military targets These are civilians being slaughtered in their homes by Israeli terrorists"
Uh, so - the Israeli folks attending the music festival - that was a military target?

Eternal paradise. Let me think.
Pray for my wife, please. We had visitors until New Years - and she never slept. None of my wife's family sleeps well. Grandchildren were coughing the whole time. Now she has a bad cold.
Bad news this morning. PLEASE PRAY!
Matt, a carpenter, was scheduled to do some work at his mother's house. No show. Later she found he'd checked himself in to a mental health unit.

Prayers Please. My brother got through his chemo and radiation, lost lot of weight, now he's eating like a horse. Still on the go, working, Still planning mission trip to Kenya. Last operation next week. Yesterday, climbing ladder to store fishing gear, fell. Two broken

Still have a time with this. Went to school in Seattle when I was young. My impression at that time - Seattle was the most conservative city I'd ever seen. Also - the cleanest. Things change.
Asking for prayer. Son, Tim, and his wife flew to Louisiana yesterday. Today he has acute pain in his right chest and right back - and pain when he breathes. My wife, an RN, is concerned about a pulmonary embolism. Tim has been sitting in the waiting room at the local ER
I hear many say Christians will be raptured before the Great Tribulation. Who, then, are the great multitude around the throne, dressed in white, in Revelation 7?
The elder tells John, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes
Prayers please - for my brother. He will be having tests all week - then (probably) his esophageal surgery in another week. Asked him what I could pray for - he said, "That God will let us know what we are supposed to learn from this." Pray for endurance and patience for him.

You said, "

She has that option. God gives us free will. Downside, for her, she's eventually going to have to explain herself before the Creator of All.

You asked, "Wait a minute.....why is Soros endorsing DeSantis?"
My best guess - anything to stir the pot. If Soros doesn't want Trump - I want Trump.

"Raise your hand if you've never been in your underwear hammer fighting another dude in his underwear at 2am in the morning."
Hmmmmm. Been to 2am hammer fights - dealt with people fighting in their underwear - and naked, but then - I was a cop on night-shift for 30 years

You asked, "Can you name a Famous Drummer?"
Albert Woolson, enlisted as a drummer in the Union Army toward the end of the Civil War. Died in the nearest town to where I live - last surviving member of the Union Army.
Please pray for Kevin, son of a dear friend. Kevin has been through countless operations and has been near death many times over the last 15 years - and it seems like the medical community is not clear about what the issues are.
Prayer Needed. Just received this from my cousin, Cyndy.
My brother Jeff is on a mission trip in Guatemala. He’s supposed to go home Friday, but he had a heart attack last night. He had surgery for a blockage, they almost lost him twice. We don’t know how long he has to stay,
@julesrprecious
You asked, "Will People Be Married In Heaven?"
Scripture in Luke, Matthew, and 1 Peter indicate otherwise. Heaven will be different in so many ways we cannot imagine. In marriage the two become one, but wedding vows also state, "Until death do us part."
Good question.
I really don't care for our current administration. I find myself posting tweets that show my displeasure - then God reminds me,
"But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" Matt. 5:44
So, I delete the tweet - and pray. Not easy.
@LoveTherapis1
You asked, "Should assault rifles and high capacity magazines be banned?"
I'll ask a question in turn. Should laws against using firearms in crimes - already on the books - be enforced in full?
Please pray for my wife. She has cysts on her ovaries and liver. So far - appear benign. She had vax - as she was unable to see our grandchildren - in one family - without getting vaxed. Two of our DILs are nurses - one strongly pro-vax - one strongly anti-vax. Wife is

Ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine, zinc, Vitamin C, Vitamin D3 - and antibiotics for the pneumonia if needed.

You asked, "Are your animals allowed on your bed / couch?"
I was born on a farm so the answer is NO! Nor in my house - and this includes anyone else's animals should they come to visit.

You said, "Name one politician that went to DC and got poorer. Say the NAME!"
Unsure if the appellation "politician" fits, but Trump is the name that comes to mind.
With the exception of Enoch and Elijah - we all die.
A 20 year old was dying of liver cancer. He was angry. His mother invited him to accept Jesus. His response, "F-Jesus." He turned his head to the left - seeing something - and let out a horrifying, "Oh No! - Oh No!" and

I'm sorry, I don't speak those kinds of words aloud - and I certainly don't put them into print.

Not that it's easy, but:
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 Cor. 10:5
Please pray. Cousin D, in hospital - some kind of stomach surgery. Had heart attack last night. They are keeping him alive until his mother arrives. Unsure of his spiritual condition. Pray for salvation.
E.R. is 84. Her son is 55 - treats her like crap. She works at Walmart to pay his bills. He lives on 200 acres in a shack. He brings dishes and laundry for E.R, to do. He took her car. He picks her/takes her to work. He does not work. Verbal abuse. E.R. needs prayer.
Please pray for Chan - son of friends. He was in the Teen Challenge program - left - and overdosed. He was in bad shape when found and is comatose on a ventilator. Doesn't look good, but God is able.
Someone asked me - why retweet Christian posts from groups and denominations different from my own?
My response:
Anything that proclaims Jesus King of Kings and Lord of Lords should be retweeted.
Every knee shall bow...
Answered Prayer? - esophageal cancer . SIL texted - biopsy result for my brother Dan - very technical (she's waiting for my wife, an RN, to look at it), but has the words 'No Malignancy', 'No Abnormality', and 'Benign' in the report. Please keep praying!
@guncollective
You asked, "Is teaching a child about gun safety the correct thing to do?"
Absolutely. If your child learns it elsewhere - no telling what they will learn. Most important, "Gun is 'always' loaded" and "Straight finger - final safety"
Please pray with me for revival in our land and around our world.
Went to see "Jesus Revolution" - 1st movie date for Jo and I in years. Thoughts: Jo was disappointed it wasn't more about Jesus. I (lower expectations) was happy there was scripture quoted. Also, for us, it
Wow. Had a hard time taking a shower this morning due to back pain. Asked for prayers on X. Many of you responded. It is now 3:30pm and I'm feeling much much better. Thank you for your prayers!
Satan is whispering, "Just a fluke." He does that. I resist satan and humbly
I asked some of you to pray for a miracle for a sister in the Lord who'd been in accident. Relative was told by doctor - time to pull the plug. Refused.
From Relative this evening: "Yesterday, her right lung collapsed, and filled with blood. This morning her right lung is
Relative said, "Can't believe in a God who would allow so much suffering."
Where do you think that suffering comes from - from God? No. That's on us. As a sinful being in rebellion against God Almighty - that's on Me and You.
However, there is provision: John 3:16
More info on my cousin, Jeff - in Guatemala on a missions trip - from his sister, Cynthia. Please keep praying.
"They will try to take him off the ventilator today. He had one stent put in, it looked like a bigger vessel to me. Yesterday they said he’s a healthy adult, his
Need prayer. Joe is a jerk. Joe is abt. 35, living with his g-ma. She served him a frozen dinner. He smacked her. She called police. G-ma wants him charged. PD didn't arrest Joe or even remove him from the house. Grandma needs prayer.
Christmas is a mess this year. Grandma just died, so we couldn't plan. Kids will be over Christmas Day. One vegetarian who will eat fish on occasion - so fish dinner, read Luke, sing carols, pray for family.
There is only one reason for the season - Jesus Christ our Lord!
New Life Center - Fargo, ND:
A very special thank you to Carpentry Master Gabriel Skarpohl for building a pulpit for the Genesis Recovery Program chapel. This gorgeous piece is constructed from old shelving found inside the Genesis house during renovations.
Incredible sermon yesterday. I even took notes (then left them in the pew pocket). I'll do my best from memory.
Romans 5:
God gave us the law.
We would not/could not keep the law
Showing we were enemies of God
So, what does God do?
Sends His Son to die, to sacrifice
Snow storm predicted Saturday/Sunday. 8 to 18 inches of snow (Duluth) 8 to 12 inches of snow (Cloquet). 25 mph winds.
Is this getting to be a once a week thing now?
I love and enjoy wild country.
Sometimes I think about the new heaven and the new earth. If this old earth can be so beautiful in its natural state - what will the new earth be like? And new heaven? I'd expect it will be far beyond that - but really no clue.
Now to him who is
