There was a service for retired people where I assisted serving a dinner, with special duet singers which followed. These were people well advanced in age..wheelchair bound or cains and most white haired like silk.

The duet came to a place where they sang, “How Great Thou Art”...and up to this point they were relaxed and just enjoyed the performance..but when they were asked to join in song I saw one of most beautiful movements I’ve ever seen, as one by one,(without any urging from the duet), they slipped out of their seats, helping one another along, and walked forward in song to the stage.

As they sang from their very souls I half expected Jesus train to fill that temple moment as the sound of thier voices lifted His name and Majesty so very high. It was so apparent Christ, by His Spirit, had entered that room....one cannot describe such a moment. They ment business in their worship in song as I have only one other time been a part of.

What a truely awe inspiring moment I will always hold to my heart. Breathtaking as each returned to their seat and the moments ended. Astounding beyond description...as all retuned to ‘normal’. Beautiful to see these 40 0r 50 souls outdo any prepared service or concert I’ve been too, in inviting by their song a special visitation from the Great I Am... Beautiful..just Beautiful... and I was humbled.

YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

AMEN! AND AGAIN I SAY, AMEN!

Have been in such worship moments maybe . . . 25-35 times or so, in my 63 years. Not even yearly.

Yet wonderous, for sure.

And the top level of that which I’ve experienced . . . maybe 4-5 times . . .

has been when in a massed gathering of some size—250 or more . . . particularly when it’s been 500 or more . . .

and suddenly, in a kind of almost transition lull, suddenly, Holy Spirit will start several different melodies from different parts of the congregation within 5-30 seconds or so of one another . . .

The melodies are distinct yet extremely harmonious as though a symphony with different interwoven melodies were playing out . . . most being led in tongues . . . maybe one or two led in English . . . maybe one or two just voices without word sounds or maybe just humming.

Also, seemingly with angels joining in.

There really are no words to adequately describe such an experience.

In China, it was ALMOST every song service. AT least maybe 70 percent of them. Those hearts were just singing their hearts out to God with all the vigor they could. This was their time to express to God Almighty what He meant to them. It was almost as though the years of persecution and the pent up need to let her rip with other precious saints of like precious faith . . . just flooded out with uncommon intensity. And it was clear, Holy Spirit’s Presence showed God’s delight in their heart-felt worship.

HAVE NOT CHECKED VALIDITY OF BELOW EMAIL IN ANY WAY. It is, however, greatly plausible.

Essentially, it says, BUY AMERICAN:

One Light Bulb at a Time

A physics teacher in high school, once told the

students that while one grasshopper on the railroad tracks wouldn’t

slow a train very much, a billion of them would. With that thought

in mind, read the following, obviously written by a good American ..

Good idea .. . . one light bulb at a time . . . .

Check this out . I can verify this because I was in Lowes the other day for

some reason and just for the heck of it I was looking at the hose

attachments . They were all made in China . The next day I was in Ace

Hardware and just for the heck of it I checked the hose

attachments there. They were made in USA . Start looking ..

In our current economic situation, every little thing we buy or do affects

someone else - even their job . So, after reading this email, I think this

lady is on the right track . Let’s get behind her!

My grandson likes Hershey’s candy . I noticed, though, that it is marked

made in Mexico now. I do not buy it any more.

My favorite toothpaste Colgate is made in Mexico ... now

I have switched to Crest. You have to read the labels on everything ..

This past weekend I was at Kroger. I needed 60 W light bulbs and Bounce dryer sheets . I was

in the light bulb aisle, and right next to the GE brand I normally buy was an off-brand

labeled, “Everyday Value . “ I picked up both types of bulbs and compared the stats -

they were the same except for the price ..

The GE bulbs were more money than the Everyday Value brand but the

thing that surprised me the most was the fact that GE was made in MEXICO

and the Everyday Value brand was made in - get ready for this - the USA in

a company in Cleveland , Ohio .

So throw out the myth that you cannot find products you use every day that

are made right here ..

So on to another aisle - Bounce Dryer Sheets . .. . yep, you guessed it,

Bounce cost more money and is made in Canada . The Everyday Value

brand was less money and MADE IN THE USA ! I did laundry yesterday

and the dryer sheets performed just like the Bounce Free I have been using

for years and at almost half the price!

My challenge to you is to start reading the labels when you shop for

everyday things and see what you can find that is made in the USA - the

job you save may be your own or your neighbors!

If you accept the challenge, pass this on to others in your address book so

we can all start buying American, one light bulb at a time! Stop buying

from overseas companies!

(We should have awakened a decade ago .. . .. . . . )

Let’s get with the program . . . .. help our fellow Americans keep their jobs and create more jobs here in the U . S . A ..
