A Letter from Jesus
Dear Friend,
I just had to write to tell you how much I love you and care for you.
Yesterday, I saw you walking and laughing with your friends; I hoped that soon you'd want Me to walk along with you, too. So, I painted you a sunset to close your day and whispered a cool breeze to refresh you. I waited; you never called. I just kept on loving you.
As I watched you fall asleep last night, I wanted so much to touch you. I spilled moonlight onto your face trickling down your cheeks as so many tears have. You didn't even think of me; I wanted so much to comfort you.
The next day I exploded a brilliant sunrise into a glorious morning for you. But you woke up late and rushed off to work-you didn't evennotice.
My sky became cloudy and Mytears were the rain.
I love you! Oh, if you'd only listen. I really love you! I try to say it in the quiet of the green meadow and in the blue sky. The wind whispers My love throughout the treetops and spills it into the vibrant colors of the flowers.
I shout it to you in the thunder of the great waterfalls and composed love songs for birds to sing for you. I warm you with the clothing of My sunshine and perfume the air with nature's sweet scent.
My love for you is deeper than the ocean and greaterthan any need in your heart. If you'd only realize how I care. I died just for you. My Dad sends His love. I want you to meet Him. He cares, too. Fathers are just that way.
So please call Me soon. No matter how long it takes, I'll wait because I love you.
Your Friend,
Jesus

"I AIN'T LAME NO MORE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Last night (7/18/07) at church Bro. Plemons preached an AWESOME message, He talked about the three"L's"-Limping, Lifting, Leaping- It was about people who limp into church, and they have all these problems wether financial, spiritual, physical, depression, opression ect. and then God lifting them up, and instead of leaving the same way, they leave LEAPING! aka Dancing and stuff. It was an awesome service, when we had the altar call, everyone was jumping and stuff it was aweosme!!! then after he was done he turned it over to pastor, and so he had the musicains and pray singers come up, and i was playing the drums, after awhile we played Shout and when we got to the part" Shout for the victory shout till youve been set free shout" the whole place exploded like a nuclear bomb!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing Story!
Bro. Plemons told a story last night, it was amazing!!!like gave me chills up and down my spine! He knew a man that was in the prison mininstry. There was this man on death row that had gotten the Holy Ghost, so they needed to baptize him, so he told the warden of the prison that this was vidal to his salvation,and he wanted to sign him out and take him to church and baptize him and the warden just laughed at him, and told him that this guy is a murder and suppossed to die, and there was no way that he could let him go. So, the preacher says" well, can I bring the water to him?" so he agreed, they took a horse troff all the way up to the third floor of the death area thingy, and the prisoner before he came out of his cell was chained all up. it went around his neck down to his arms and waist and down to his feet, so he had to hope out of the cell. They put him in the water and baptized him, as soon as he came up he started jumping and he jumped out of the troff, and they looked and the chains were on the bottom of the troff!!! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!, not only that, but the preacher was worried because the guards had the electricuter thingys and so he was worried because the prisnoner was all wet and if the electricuted him than he could die. but he looked over and instead of the guards surrounding the prisnor he saw them taking off there belts and shoes arguing who gets to go next....it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
