Dear friends,

Here is a resource that I haven't shared with you before. The
answers to prayer site is different because it blends scripture,
devotional messages, Bible questions, and reader feedback into a
daily message I've incorporated parts of a recent message into
today's message

Yours in Christ,
Brian

Encouraging Story:

Help

Some years ago my wife and I paid a visit to England to Vera's
aged mother. During our stay we undertook a ten-day trip by car
to the West Country - Somerset, Devon and Cornwall. We traveled
about 1500 km visiting many places we remembered from our youth,
and ventured into some new territory. A good deal of our journey
was on fast six or eight lane motorways, and some on country
lanes so narrow that to meet an oncoming vehicle meant retreat
for one or the other.

As we were traveling, one thought struck me particularly.
Wherever we went, even in the loneliest places in the country,
we would pass a telephone box. On motorways, these are at
regular intervals, so at worst there was only a short walk to
'phone for help.

In the country, the familiar red telephone boxes or emergency AA
or RAC 'phones were to be found in most villages. That is very
comforting because it means that no matter where you are, if you
do get into trouble, somewhere not far away there is a telephone
box from which you can call for help. It means that even in the
most remote place, if you have a breakdown or other emergency,
you can use one of these 'phones to get help. And you can do it
twenty-four hours a day, because there is always someone at the
other end who knows exactly how to get help to you quickly.

Throughout the world motoring organizations provide efficient
roadside help for their members. But it is not only in the car
that we need help. These days our cars are usually so reliable
that we rarely need assistance.

Life, however, is not as reliable. Frequently we are faced with
problems, large or small, when we need to call for help. It may
be to a friend, a relative, or perhaps to a doctor. That sort of
help is never far away, thank goodness. But there are times when
physical help is not what we need, times when the comfort we
seek is spiritual rather than physical.

I usually sign off with the words "Have a good week." Today, I
find that hard to do. The world is facing turmoil and this week
and in the weeks to follow the future is uncertain. If, like me,
you fear what lies ahead, remember that promise of Jesus when He
said, "Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you." Close
your eyes right now and go to Him who will never leave you.

P. S. Isn't this great that we don't have to look for our loving
Heavenly Father? He said that He is dwelling in us:

1 Cor 3:16 "Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple
and that God's Spirit lives in you?" NIV

The Saviour's Call

Do you possess life eternal? Do you have the assurance that if
you died today, you would wake up in Heaven, with the Lord Jesus
Christ for eternity? Are you sure? If so, praise God!

But if not, why not make sure? Why not be certain? I challenge
you to ask yourself some very important questions! Please click
the graphic below and prepare to challenge yourself! God bless
you my friend!

"Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my
voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and
he with Me." Revelation 3:20

In His Love,

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock
and the door will be opened to you' Matt 7:7 (c) 2002
