A FAITH-FILLED WORD OR TWO...

A mini-message from God's Word for your week!

 

THE HEALER IS HERE!

 

Jesus in CYBERSPACE? You'd better believe it! The same Lord who walked the shores of Galilee, who healed the sick, lifted the fallen, delivered the oppressed, walks the World Wide Web--to bring His love, joy and peace to sinner and saint alike. He brings salvation to the sinner, encouragement to the saint--and healing for us all. There IS healing in the Name of Jesus...and His Name goes out across this Web day and night, around the world, by those who proclaim Him as Lord--whether in email or in a Web page that lifts high His praise.

 

Do you have a need today? He's there--no, He's HERE--to meet your need, be it emotional, physical, mental or spiritual. He's everywhere--at every time, in every place, for every need. Believe it, and have a wonderful day in the presence of the Lord, who LIVES for us all! Happy EARLY Easter--He lives in healing power for YOU this day!

 

Scripture:

"But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon him, and with his stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5)."

 

"God is our refuge and strength, a very PRESENT help in trouble...Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge...(Psalm 46: 1,10).

 

Prayer: "Lord, I need Your healing presence in my life today. I've got needs deep within--physical, spiritual, mental, emotional--some that only YOU know and that only YOU can heal. Thank You for Your healing power and presence that reaches me this day, right HERE--EVEN on the Web! In Jesus Name, Amen."

A Bonus Poem from the Pen of Rev. Greg Asimakoupoulos!

 

Confessions of a Master Multi-tasker

 

I'm a master multi-tasker.

I eat breakfast while I drive.

Even make calls while I'm steering.

In one hour, I work five.

 

I check scores while sending e-mail.

It's called working while you play.

I can exercise while reading.

And I worry while I pray.

 

I can shave while I am showering.

I watch news while getting dressed.

I drink coffee walking Fido.

Maybe that's why I am stressed.

 

Doing just one thing seems lazy.

There's so much that must get done.

So I'm dreaming while I'm working

how to sleep while on the run.

FUN 'n FAITH FOUND ON THE WEB...

A sampling of a "fun 'n faith" Web articles or links!

 

All I Need to Learn about Life I Learned from the Easter Bunny

 

Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Walk softly and carry a big carrot.

Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.

There's no such thing as too much candy.

All work and no play can make you a basket case.

Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.

Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.

Keep your paws off other people's jellybeans.

Good things come in small sugar-coated packages.

The grass is greener in someone else's basket.

An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare.

To show your true colors you have to come out of the shell.

The best things in life are still sweet and gooey.
