PSALM 32 VERSE 11
"BE GLAD IN THE LORD AND REJOICE,YOU RIGHTEOUS; AND SHOUT FOR JOY,ALL YOU UPRIGHT IN HEART!"
GRACE TO ALL YOU SAINTS OF THE LORD!
Ps 32:1 A Psalm of David. A Contemplation. Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered. 2 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit. 3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old Through my groaning all the day long. 4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; My vitality was turned into the drought of summer. Selah 5 I acknowledged my sin to You, And my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the LORD," And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah 6 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You In a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters They shall not come near him. 7 You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah 8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye. 9 Do not be like the horse or like the mule, Which have no understanding, Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle, Else they will not come near you. 10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him. 11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous; And shout for joy, all you upright in heart! (NKJV)

Ro 8:37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (NKJV)
"For my strength is made perfect in weakness." - 2 Corinthians 12:9
A primary qualification for serving God with any amount of success, and for doing God's work well and triumphantly, is a sense of our own weakness. When God's warrior marches forth to battle, strong in his own might, when he boasts, "I know that I shall conquer, my own right arm and my conquering sword shall get unto me the victory," defeat is not far distant. God will not go forth with that man who marches in his own strength. He who reckoneth on victory thus has reckoned wrongly, for "it is not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts." They who go forth to fight, boasting of their prowess, shall return with their gay banners trailed in the dust, and their armour stained with disgrace. Those who serve God must serve him in his own way, and in his strength, or he will never accept their service. That which man doth, unaided by divine strength, God can never own. The mere fruits of the earth he casteth away; he will only reap that corn, the seed of which was sown from heaven, watered by grace, and ripened by the sun of divine love. God will empty out all that thou hast before he will put his own into thee; he will first clean out thy granaries before he will fill them with the finest of the wheat. The river of God is full of water; but not one drop of it flows from earthly springs. God will have no strength used in his battles but the strength which he himself imparts. Are you mourning over your own weakness? Take courage, for there must be a consciousness of weakness before the Lord will give thee victory. Your emptiness is but the preparation for your being filled, and your casting down is but the making ready for your lifting up.
"When I am weak then am I strong, Grace is my shield and Christ my song."

Please also be with Terri Schiavo tonight as she's been moved back to hospice. Please, Lord, let Gov. Bush and Pres. Bush act on her behalf in some way -- praying for their tenderness and kindness that we have seen in them in the past to move them to act in compassion toward Terri and her precious family. Thank You for all who are working SO HARD for Terri -- keep them all safe and well, Father ... give them good sleep. We are grateful for Your goodness, for the technology that brings us here together. Thank You, Lord ... In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Humbly we Thank You, dear Jesus, for the victory over injustice You have given us. So many unthruths spoken by the Media. Forgive those for they no not what they have done. They are simply amazed that all their plans were thwarted. May many eyes and ears be opened to the realization, it is You that is most important in this world. To live a virtuous life should be a goal all should aspire to. To bring about a peace, starting within the family and spreading throughout the world...That should be our utmost goal. We love You, with all our hearts, minds and souls, for Thou art worthy...In Jesus name we pray bless our President Bush and family.
