There are many people on this list, but I would love to increase. We're quick to send forwards that will give "bad luck" if you don't send them or show the latest horror prom fashions. I would really appreciate you helping me share the Word of God. It's my purpose and resource.
Thank you in advance!

Prayer: LORD, help me to appreciate my family. To forgive all wrongs and to move on in love. To encourage them spiritually and to achieve everything that You have set before them LORD. Let us serve You on one accord and put Your desires and priorities above any and all things that we could ever ask for. Let us stand together to influence one another and this world with Your Glory. I rebuke gossip LORD, how that telephone game can ruin a family. I rebuke heartless/cold communication. I rebuke insults to make one's self feel better. I rebuke isolation, because no one grows in isolation. LORD, there is a cry for family, immediate and extended. Pour Your Spirit over us, so that the light can shine in each one of us and the darkness can have no place. Anything that is contrary to Your Word- has absolutely no place. Thank You for the joy, love, compassion, long life, and happiness that You have appointed for us to share. LORD, instruct the parents and adults to discipline, instruct, teach, love and influence the children in order to affect our future generations with a blessed inheritance and not foolery. Whether blood related, in-law, or friends that have become family-show us how to appreciate one another and love each other with the love of God. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Matthew 25
The Sheep and the Goats v 31- 46 - part 1
Jesus continues to speak to His disciples about the final judgment:
"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his throne in heavenly glory. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
Then the King will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.'
Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'
The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invited me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothed me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.'
They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?'
He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'
Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."
As we read these parables, please note that no parable by itself completely describes our preparation. Instead, each gives important details for the complete picture.
Today, just read the verses- tomorrow we will jump into what it means for us.
HOW DO YOU SEE JESUS IN YOUR LIFE? WHAT PLACE DOES HE HAVE?
