EL PAN DE VIDA
OCTUBRE
DIA 27
“--Yo soy el pan de vida --declaró Jesús--. El que a mí viene nunca pasará hambre, y el que en mí cree nunca más volverá a tener sed”. Juan 6:35
La preocupación mundial actual es la crisis financiera y alimentaria, que causa la mala nutrición física. Este es un problema para los gobiernos.
"La crisis financiera hará más difícil todavía la situación para los países en desarrollo que tratan de proteger a sus habitantes más vulnerables frente a los efectos provocados por la subida de los precios de los alimentos y el combustible. El número de personas mal nutridas aumentará 44 millones en todo el mundo, alcanzando un total de 967 millones en 2008, después de que varios países experimentaron una inflación de dos dígitos en los comestibles, según un nuevo informe del Banco Mundial.

NO evil shall come near my dwelling; and I shall praise the Lord with every breath that I have. Enjoy the videos, sing along, and get your praise and joy on! Hallelujah!!

My Story

I am almost 49 years old and for the first 15 years of my life I live in a very tough situation that included poverty, physical, emotional, social, and sexual abuse. I had a father who was an alcoholic,
he was illiterate because he never was sent to school but was put to work in the logging camp where his family lived. He met my mother who was dating his brother and she ended up marrying him. My mom came from a good family and it was hard for them to see her with this man and his family who were all drunks and lived in tar paper shacks. My mom had 5 children in less than 5 years, the last 3 of us were 11 months apart. My earliest memories are of living in a one room tar paper shack, My father would take off and leave us with nothing, my grandmother (mothers side) did all she could do to make sure we were OK. My mom would leave my father and move us all to my grandmothers house , then after a few months bring us back to my father.

Nature is the natural way to experience life. Through nature we are able to learn, explore, advance, relax, enjoy, grow, and more. Much can be gained from the abundance that nature has to offer. With the proper perspective, we are able to see nature at its best and pursue specific areas of nature that are of interest to us. When we appreciate nature and respect nature, our eyes are opened to the magnificence and resplendence of the *TRUE BEAUTY OF NATURE*!!!

“Jehová se me manifestó hace ya mucho tiempo, diciendo: "Con amor eterno te he amado; por eso, te prolongué mi misericordia”. Jer. 31:3
El amor de Dios a Israel y a cada creyente en Jesucristo es sublime, es eterno y la máxima expresión de un amor santo y fiel. El anónimo que edite, hace pensar en el opaco amor humano, ante el amor divino.

My Testimony...

Posted by Amanda Leigh Sessions
So to be honest I have been a little scared to give an open testimony because of my past and who I was and the fact that it was not that long ago when all of this happened. However, being on this site and seeing the testimony of others has given me a bit of courage and I am going to use that courage to be honest and open and just put it out there. So... here goes...
I have always known that God was real. I have always known that he existed. Even when I didn't want to believe it he has been there... I just didn't want him to be there. I went through some losses when I was younger that affected me greatly.

Happiness is a wonderful feeling. People enjoy being happy because it is uplifting and makes life worth living. However, happiness can in fact be elusive. Pursuing happiness for oneself, just for the sole purpose of becoming happy, usually results in failure to find happiness.

Are you ready for war?

In the bible, the Christian life is not simply compared to a war - it's actually called a war! Ephesians 6: 10-12 says10 A final word: be strong with the Lord's mighty power.11 Put on ALL of God's armor so that you may be able to stand firm against ALL strategies and tricks of the Devil.12 For we are not fighting against people made of flesh and blood, but againt evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against those mighty powers of darkness who rule THIS world, and against wicked spirits in the heavenly realms.
As in any battle , it helps to know your enemy.

There is Movement in the Heavens to equip God's people!

There is movement in the heavens to equip God's people. The angels of war are gathering with the resurrection power of the Lamb. It is time to take our places.
In this new battle, warriors will fight with new weapons. God is calling intercessors to go up into the war rooms of heaven and ask Him for armor. We can then look at the territory around us and ask Him how to use our weapons to bring down the strongholds and bring in the glory of the Lamb.

Faith through Trials
James 1: 1-4
Jesus’ brother wrote the book of James. He is speaking to his fellow Jews, male and female, his spiritual siblings, specifically to the twelve tribes of Israel that had been dispersed among the Greeks. What he is telling them flies in the face of what they thought the Messiah was to do when He came. They were expecting a conqueror that would restore Israel and crush its enemies. Instead, Jesus brought in a different kind of Kingdom. Not one of this world, but one of another, an invisible Kingdom that would eventually overcome, not overtake the world.

Genesis 3:9 And the Lord called unto Adam, and said unto him Where art thou?
Where Are You?
It is a question asked in Genesis 3:9. Adam and Eve had just eaten some fruit from the forbidden tree and, sensing God's presence in the Garden of Eden, they hid among the trees. While they were hiding, God asked Adam a one-word question. In Hebrew that word is Ayeka? In English it means,

INNOCENCE IS PRICELESS

One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex standing in the foyer of the church staring up at a large plaque. It was covered with names and small American flags mounted on either side of it. The six-year old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood beside the little boy, and said quietly, 'Good morning Alex.'
'Good morning Pastor,' he replied, still focused on the plaque.

Forgiveness first comes from God

Mark 11:25 says, But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against, so that your father in heaven will forgive your sins, too. As this passage implies, an attitude of unforgiveness can actually hinder your prayer life.The psalmist wrote, "He would not have listened if I had not confessed my sins"(Pslams 66:18).
So, in Mark 11: 25, Jesus is not saying that God's forgiveness is dependent upon your forgiveness of others.

I love to read. I always have. I read at least a couple of books a month, if not more. Some nights, if I don't have time because of school or work or anything like that during the day I will stay up later than I have to just to have a few minutes to read. And I don't care. You give me a book, any book, and I will read it.
I mean, when people tell me that they don't read, I have to look at them with a backward glance. How can one not just totally love the written word? It is what will survive through everything. All these technologies and things like that will one day be dust, but we write will be here forever.
Anyways, I was thinking about how reading a book can change your outlook on life.

The Rough Sketch of a New Untitled Song

I, I am Hollow
I am empty as a shell cast out from the sea
But you, you fulfill me
You embrace me with your love and make me complete
Without you I am nothing
Without you I am lost
Without you...
I've been down the wrong road a hundred times before.
Never finding anything, always wanting more
'Til I found you there was nothing but despair
Now that I know your love, nothing can compare

God is Real--True story

Posted by Torri
I made a mistake when I decided to turn from God. I still loved Him, but the thought that He listened and shared all my hardships diminished. So I took the situations into my own hands and soon found self injury to be the only way out. Rather than giving my emotions to God, I numbed them with pain. And it became a hidden battle from the outside.
Whenever I felt negative emotions, I would inflict pain on myself. But then it escalated into an addiction like habit. If I was unable to fulfill this feeling, I would go mad. And this continued daily in my life for about two years.

“Jehová se me manifestó hace ya mucho tiempo, diciendo: "Con amor eterno te he amado; por eso, te prolongué mi misericordia”. Jer. 31:3
Culminó con esta bella historia de amor anónima, editada. La persona que preguntó se retiró extrañada del lugar.. Él acompañó hasta su casa a su ex novia, ella le pidió que por favor la esperara afuera y él accedió ella nunca lo hacia esperar en el patio. Se quedó 10 minutos esperando, y no regresaba. De pronto escuchó voces y vio salir de la casa a los amigos de ella, todos con cara triste y ojos llorosos…

A wall of sin is enough to block our eyes from the "son"

The youth pastor at my church talked about sins and how they build up over time. And he gave me an idea to an awesome thought to hold onto. When you sin "the first time" it is like a layer of bricks being laid down in front of you. You can ask for forgiveness (You have to be sincere about actually laying down the sin to God of course.) and then put it behind you and move on easily. Just step over the single line of bricks. But lets say you don't.

Well it seems like it never stops around here at the Center of Hope! Ministry, ministry, ministry! We had 7 graduates last month. We moved the ministry and all the men to another location as well as opening up an outreach center to the hurting here in our neighborhood.
As many of you know finances are tight, but God has them right in His hands. I don’t think it’s an economy thing, but a ministry /God thing. God just keeps us on our knees asking for help, knocking on doors and humbling our hearts.....

MY TESTIMONY
By Dave Burrus
I have written my testimony as I feel that there is a lot of un-forgiveness in this world. I pray that it may help some come to our Lord and seek His forgiveness and love.
It all started way back when I was around 4 or 5 years of age.
Way back in 1944/5. I had a hard childhood and so did some of my other brothers and sisters.
