Marie Antoinette $4


Hey i just bought a beloved movie; Marie Antoinette for a blockbuster price of $4. Worth it. And a word of advice; watch this movie, it is awesome. Sofia Coppola takes a new spin (daring) on this historical story and makes it more intimate, more about the 14 year old girl who was forced to marry King Louis XV1 in order to bring two countries together by way of a child. But Sofia takes a new direction that only she can. It is unmistakable and a thoroughly enjoyable movie.

Hebrews 5;7 - Keys to answered prayer

"In the days of His flesh (Jesus) offered up definite, special petitions (for that which He not only wanted but needed) and the supplications with strong crying and tears to Him who was always able to save Him (out) from death, and He was heard because of his reverence toward God (His godly fear, His piety, in that He shrank form the Horrors of separation from the bright presence of the father)".
Find to link from Christ' prayers to the answers received and let me know how you got on.

Quick Thought

In my work i have a lot of thinking time while i work. My thought today was in context to how much i believe i am getting from the book of Hebrews at this time. it has taken me close to a month to really get onto to chapter 5; but in the midst of this 'revelation' i believe the Holy Spirit told me that all so called 'fresh revelation' is actually the uncovering of God's original intent. God isn't saying anything new, he's just allowing you to see his original intentions from the word. He is unchanging and so is his word, and every revelation must directly and clearly lead us back to his written word and original intentions. And guess what; they are good intentions for those who are called to his purpose.

The Floods have ceased -


Well it took about nine days to go down, but i am back in my house minus the water all around.
I have nothing to complain or contest about concerning this time, because there are other people in America today that are having far worse times with their rivers flooding. This experiences has defiantly made me more aware of other natural disasters and inconveniences that happen in this country, and to be praying for them at their hour of need. A good thing to do if you want to pray for those misplaced or homeless or in danger of any thing like this; go to FEMA's web page for updates.
God has taught me a heck of a lot of things since being out of house and i believe i am a better person through this experience.
God is good.
My testimony. Last Thursday Debbie and i came back to check out our house and it was no better (nor worse) than what it was a week previous. We waded through three foot of water and stayed in our house before it got dark before we ventured out again. Before we left we prayed a 'miracle prayer' For it to go down by Monday (today), and lo and behold a miracle happened and the water subsided turning a lot of ice that as i write this is been torn up by a huge digger thanks to the city of Grand Rapids.
Jesus is a miracle worker, everything has to submit to him - Go on, pray for something impossible today!!
This is the Grand River in my town Grand Rapids - The river here is about six feet below where it has been over the last week or so.
