Jonah 1:17
"And the Lord appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights."
I have been thinking about how Jonah was scared of the Lord. He thought that he could hide from Him. But Jonah couldn't hide from God, because God is everywhere. And sometimes we are all scared. But we shouldn't run away from God like Jonah did. Instead we should follow His ways.
Dear God, please forgive us for all the times we have run away. Help us to keep our confidence strong in you. Amen.

"Dear God, I wonder if I write you, what would I say? I would start by saying I am sorry for all the wrong I have done, I'm sorry for those I have hurt. I'm sorry for all the wrongs I have done, Lord from my heart I am sorry. Help me forgive those who have hurt me, so I may hold no grudges and let none be held against me. I ask forgiveness, Lord. You are the only one who hasn't turned their back on me. Please forgive me of my sins. I'm not worthy of your mercy, but I do love you Father God. I'm sorry I haven't been a better son to you. Is it too late to be forgiven? Is it too late to give my life to your son Jesus Christ? Have I sinned too greatly to be forgiven? Sometimes I wonder if I have sinned so greatly that you will give up on me. I don't want you to give up on me. Now and always, you are all I have. Amen." Jackie B, Bell Co Jail, Belton TX

]]> http://newdayinchrist.org/bloo.rss20.php?comments=1&post_id=209 Prayer Request Thank you all so much for the prayers you have offered for my nephew, William. Saturday, July 5, Will [...] Tue, 08 Jul 2008 03:47:32 +0000 RAK http://newdayinchrist.org?post_id=208 http://newdayinchrist.org?post_id=208
Now, this being a Saturday, and the day after the July 4th holiday, one might expect a neurosurgeon to be, oh, I don't know, maybe on the lake or on the golf course, but it so happens one of the best surgeons in the region just happened to be in the hospital at that time. Less than three hours after the onset of Will's symptoms, he was in surgery and the pressure was relieved. The source of the probem, a condition called arteriovenous malformation (avm), was identified and found to be accessible and easily removed. But we had no way to know what damage had been done during the bleed.

My sister Maria, Will's mom, works as a speech therapist in a stroke ward of a major regional rehabilitation center, which is good and bad. She has demonstrated over and over in the past few days that God has prepared her well for this difficult calling. However, since she works with stroke patients day to day, she is fully aware of how these things can go very badly, and every step of the way she has constantly been trying to prepare us, and herself for the worst. I hope now that these first few critical days and these major milestones have been passed, she can begin to realize the possibility of the best for Will.

Will has had an amazing day today. His ventilator was removed and he is able to breathe without assistance. Tomorrow he will have an assessment to determine his ability to swallow, but his mother has already assessed (unofficially as far as his medical records are concerned) that his swallowing reflex is intact. He is still very weak and having a lot of pain, following a stroke and major brain surgery, but we just keep counting the miracles that have occurred allowing him to make it this far, and we have faith that there is potential for a full, or very near full recovery of his motor skills. He still needs our prayers, as do his parents, Maria and Ron, and Will's twin brother David and sisters, Maggie and Suzanne.

We are joyfully giving thanks to God for the skill and care of the wonderful emergency and neurosurgery staff at St. Joseph's Hospital here in Lexington. Who would have thought that on the Saturday after the 4th of July there would be a neurosurgeon right there in the hospital when Will was brought in? Call it a coincidence, or call it dedication, but I know the family of one 16 year old boy who will call it a miracle!

We all know Will's got a lot of hard work ahead, but he's surrounded by a "cloud of witnesses" who include brother and sisters, mom and dad, grandparents, aunts and uncles and a whole passel of cousins, in addition to his church family at MQHR and the "band nation" at Lafayette High School, the hospital staff and friends from all over, who have all been incredible in their support and prayers. We are all wrapping him up in our love and prayers. And he has not only the constant care and attention of the great ICU staff at St. Joe's, but just as soon as he's able, he'll be going to work with Mom, to continue his recovery at Cardinal Hill Rehabilitation Center. Keep on praying for him. There's a whole lot of power there. Praise God!

Peace and grace,
Rose Anne ]]> http://newdayinchrist.org/bloo.rss20.php?comments=1&post_id=208 Welcome Rev. Gloria Villa Diaz! We are so blessed by God! The Rev.

Dear New Day in Christ Ministries,

Hello, my name is Tracy and I have given my life to the Lord Jesus Christ and would like some of my friends here in North East Pre-Release Center to share in God's grace with me. I would also like to receive a copy (along with these other women) of your "New Day in Christ" daily devotional. We had a member of our church read from the devotional out loud every night before bed, along with a prayer:

Walk with me O Lord I pray,
Give me strength throughout the day,
Take my problems, big and small;
Lift me when I tend to fall.

I may not be where I wanna be,
I may not be where I outta be,
But I thank God, I'm not where I used to be.

God's will, not mine, be done in my life today.
Amen.

And this helps all of us make it through another day. Its got to be a special book and a special prayer when you have 300 women prisoners recite it together as one in the name of Jesus. Unfortunately, the lady with the book is gone home now, and we miss our daily devotional prayer book. We would welcome one of our own. We look forward to receiving it. God bless.

Thank you, God, for Tracy and her generous spirit. May her letter be a reminder to us all that we can never know how you may use our words to touch another's life. Let all our words and works be only to your glory. Bless and protect all the women and men who seek you behind bars, and bless their chaplains with the sure knowledge that your will is being worked through them. Bring peace to our hearts and to the world. In Jesus' name, Amen. ]]> http://newdayinchrist.org/bloo.rss20.php?comments=1&post_id=197 Prayer Requests Pray for Tommy J. in Central Unit, Sugarland, TX.
