Sweet Company
The Spirit of truth . . . dwells with you and will be in you. John 14:17
|
The elderly woman in the nursing home didn't speak to anyone or request anything. It seemed she merely existed, rocking in her creaky old chair. She didn't have many visitors, so one young nurse would often go into her room on her breaks. Without asking the woman questions to try to get her to talk, she simply pulled up another chair and rocked with her. After several months, the elderly woman said to her, "Thank you for rocking with me." She was grateful for the companionship. Before He went back to heaven, Jesus promised to send a constant companion to His disciples. He told them He would not leave them alone but would send the Holy Spirit to be in them (John 14:17). That promise is still true for believers in Jesus today. Jesus said that the triune God makes His "home" in us (v.23). The Lord is our close and faithful companion throughout our entire life. Recording artist Scott Krippayne expresses this truth in song: "In my deepest night He is the guiding star; in my sinfulness He is the forgiving heart; a willing ear for each silent prayer, a shoulder for burdens I cannot bear. Sweet company from now through all eternity." We can enjoy His sweet company today. Anne Cetas
In my bed of thorns, He is the fragrant rose; In my wilderness, He's the stream that flows; A shelter built with loving grace, His refuge shall be my dwelling place. Krippayne © 2002, New Spring Publishing, Inc./Chips and Salsa Songs
The Christian's heart is the Holy Spirit's home.

Good evening, Mayor! Thanks for your daily lesson in God's word. Life is always sweeter when we belong to the Lord.
I hope this week is a productive one for you. We always look forward to you telling us what is going on either with the re-model or the campaign....especially the campaign. Does your district include West Seneca?

Katrina looks bad watching FNC at present, question they keep referring to the area as the Big Easy is this to do with New Orleans jazz history or what?

Hi Billie, I saw the Crawford threads what an awesomw showing by FReepers.
God Bless them all for traveling so far to support our Men and Women.
I have also been watching the hurricane threads, what a catastrophic event that is about to unfold on New Orleans and the whole Gulf coast.
We are expecting rain to hit us wednesday/Thursday.

I always look forward to your reports. Please keep me on your ping list! :o)
I have a FReeper friend who lives in West Seneca, and I was hoping to get him to help in your campaign...course I haven't asked him yet. Wanted to find out if it would be in his district. I'm not even sure how political he is, but I know you can always use extra hands.

To: The Mayor
Good evening Rus! I just caught up with reading & posts/responding on weekend thread. My approximate comment re: computers... cars, computers, men.. so nice but often so frustrating.. (har, know you would add an "wo" at the appropriate place.) With three computers in this house that work how & when they chose, I am now using a friends.. grrrr. I like to think I am astute with security: virus, spyware & necessary updates. But alas, it seems that is not enough. Would be nice to be able to get new computer every 6 weeks or so when the computer you are NOW using decides to head south, despite being fastidious.
Thanks for the thread dear FReeper FRiend.. hope your weekend was restful & fulfilling!
