STAND

By now most of you know that RAVEN West Coast had a small "hiccup in our giddiup" on Thursday. It can seem so looming and large when it really is not. This Thursday was a day when we went out with only our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and His Word. We stood on His promises to us and to the world. We were able to pray with these hungry people of faith, share communion, and they prayed for us. With hearts that love the Lord and faith that can move mountains, they prayed for us. Amen. We were able to be together in the Word of God with nothing to distract or detract from it. We shared our love of Jesus together. We prayed for each other and we were the body of Christ in action together, holding each other up and encouraging each other. Was it hard? Yes. Was it sad? Yes, but it was joyful as well. Are we broken? No. When there is nothing else you can do, then you STAND. You STAND on The Rock of salvation, on Jesus and His word. You STAND. Against satan and all his trickery and subtle games, against the demons he sends to throw that monkey wrench in the works. You STAND. Amen. Satan hates that. Too bad for him. We will never give up no matter how hard the road gets, no matter what is thrown our way, we will STAND. We are His for eternity and He is ours. We love Him above all else and we know He loves us more than we can ever love Him. What else do we need? Nothing. We STAND on Him and we pray continously. Amen. God bless you all, we love you. Deb ><>
