I actually don't like making prayers for business kinds of things. But this turns out to be really important. It's kinda hard to explain without going into a lot of detail. But here are the basics. We have a client that is basically 85% of our business. We're currently bidding on a two-year contract to c...

It was only a few days ago that I experienced a great blessing from God when I finally got a brand new car. Honestly, I never thought I would have a brand new car that I did cry because I was so happy. One day brings God's blessings and another brings something else. I don't ask for p...

He has a beautiful niece named Natalia, she's two, and as we were leaving she came over to me and just puckered up waiting to give me a kiss. So I picked her up and she kiss...

He was diagnosed with diabetes years ago and we have TRIED to get him to change his diet of sweets and candies, but he just wou...

Please say a quick prayer for me. My PTSD is flaring up rather badly today. It's been a while since I've had it act up, so I'd gotten used to not having to deal with it so much. Thank you, with much love, Mattie

Please join in me in prayer for Mama Lisa. She has recently received some rather derogatory hate messages towards herself, and her website.

The e-mail they received is shocking and contains vague threats. For some GCN is the place to be. For others, her site may be more appropriate. And for yet others, like myself, I float easily between both. The response on Mama Lisa's board has been to pray for this person and that impresses me. We should all be supporting each other, not trying to tear one another down. I join with those who pray for this person. May Christ's ministry to GLBTQ persons be increased through both sites. ------------------------------------- Ike Darrel, Know that we are keeping Mama Lisa in our prayers...May the Lord bless this lady with all of his many blessings that only he can do...Praying for you...Hugs, Ike ----------------------- A_Country_Guy I am with Mattie... I totally agree with everything he says.. I do go back and forth with no problems at all.. Mama lisa and Papa Bear did work hard and they are pursuing their dream with it. Prayers with them. ------------------------ StevePoz What a great show of love and prayers for Mama Lisa.... I'm always praying for her and Teddy....
