For this very
reason,
make every effort to
add to your faith
goodness;
and to goodness,
knowledge;
and to knowledge,
self-control;
and to self-control,
perseverance;
and to perseverance,
godliness;
and to godliness,
brotherly kindness;
and to brotherly
kindness, love.
2 Peter
1:5-7
Whenever we reach the
point,
of not hungering for more of
God's
knowledge,
our faith begins to
die,
becoming
stagnant.
No matter how many
times
we begin to seek out God's
Word,
there is always something
new,
which can be
found.
The Word changes our
lives.
The longer we
read,
and
meditate,
our spirits become fine
tuned,
and keen to His
wisdom.
Our intimacy with the Word of
God,
brings us closer in
relationship
with Him.
The Word of
God
brings healing,
understanding,
and
perception,
that we would never
have,
otherwise.
Our faith is able to
increase
with unlimited
strength,
soaring.
Whatever purpose we
have
been
delegated,
we shall find that His
Word
leads, guides, and directs
us,
with might,
power, and love.

Have a safe and blessed weekend,
Folks.
May the Lord go with

travels.

Local News Concerning Boarding House
Fire
GREENSBORO, N.C. — Residents of a boarding house are looking for a
new place to live after an early morning fire destroyed their home on
Wednesday.
Authorities said the blaze was reported around 4:20 a.m. at 2401
Maywood Street.
Joseph Hanson, one of seven tenants, said he moved into the home two
weeks ago and now he’s homeless again.
“I live in the second room and when the door was open it went whoof,
it burnt my room up in 15 seconds,” explained Hanson. “I tried to go out the
front and the fire hit me in the face, so I turned around and put a cover over
me and went out the back.”
“I’d be dead if it wasn’t for that fire alarm,” said Hanson. “I
didn’t get to salvage my Bible, nothing, and nothing at all.”
Hanson said four other people were inside when the fire started. All
made it out safely.
Christina Stone lived in the house for the past six months with her
3-year-old daughter and were staying the night at a friend’s house when it
started.
“It hurts. It tears me to pieces.
I don’t know what else to say,” said Stone.
“I’m very thankful that I wasn’t here. If I was here, there’s
no telling what could’ve happened.”
(All her daughter's toys were destroyed in the fire).
The house sustained $73,000 in damages, according to
officials.
Red Cross in Greensboro, is providing assistance for the
displaced tenants.
Two firefighters sustained minor injuries for heat exhaustion and a
strained back.
The story of the elderly man, who lost everything, including his
medications,
The story of the young mother, who has the three year
old,
are both heartwrenching.
They lost everything.
The Red Cross in Greensboro, N. C. are helping with aid and ask
for help.
If you would like to send a small donation,
please do so.

to visit my daughter and bring my grandson back. Sunday I woke with the worst
headache ever in my life. I was puking and my eyes were swelling..I went to the
hospital there and they kept me all day Sunday, they did a catscan of my head
and found that I have been carrying around a real bad sinus infection for a
while. They put me on antibiotics and pain meds. I really need you to pray for

Tens of thousands are without power tonight in the NE and Midwest sections
of the country after a power and dangerous storm hit with winds up to 70 miles
pr hour. There is still a heat wave and drought going on in many parts of the
US. PLEASE PRAY for those without power for it to come back on quickly, for
those without a/c at all to be safe and cool and for these bad storms to be over
period. Pray for rain in drought stricken areas and for everyone to have enough
water for themselves, livestock and crops. God is able and faithful. Please
pray. God bless. Love, Jaynne

I have a request for myself, please. I have been unable
to keep food down since Sunday afternoon. I don't feel bad---only nauseous

Continued prayer is needed for the
woman facing cancer. Tests have been ordered. Her mother died from cancer after
the doctor ignored symptoms, she is afraid that the doctor may do the same. She
is also afraid as surgery is not possible

Mederick had another seizure this week. We
thought he'd outgrown them so this was disappointing. Please just pray damage is
minimal and this could just be a glitch that has no long term affect.
Thanks,

He holds us in His hands each
day,
He loves to hear us when we
pray,
He helps us always in His
way,
We're in His
hands,
He leads us as we learn to
love,
He guides us too from up
above,
He never pushes us or gives us a
shove,
He holds us in His
hands,
He gives us Hope and Faith and
Trust,
Believing in Him is a
must,
God loves us dearly , so very
much,
We're in His
Hands.
