Do you feel neglected by others in the Body of Christ? Have they missed ministering to a need in your life? Ask ourselves, how well we do know the people who sit next to us in the few weeks after week? Do we know their needs and their hurts...or even their last names?
One of the conditions in the Body of Christ that give grieves to some of us is the superficial level of many church "friendships." Because this once-a-week, detached attitude is so prevalent, many us feel it. "Some of us can't find a church where we really feel at home. Sometimes there are question in our mind. I don't know where I belong. I know God wants me rooted somewhere, but how can I find a real church family?"
It's painful to think that many of our brothers and sisters go to bed on Sunday nights feeling neglected – like "displaced persons." Yet, the scripture that comes to mind is: "Give, and it will be given to you; A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life. Next time, look around for someone you don't know very well. Ask what their needs are and offer to pray with them. Take them to coffee and follow up with contact and prayer during the week. Then open your arms to receive, as God gives back to you what you have given to others. What a harvest you'll reap. GIVE BACK TO OTHERS....

FEELING NEGLECTED?
Do you feel neglected by others in the Body of Christ? Have they missed ministering to a need in your life? Ask ourselves, how well we do know the people who sit next to us in the few weeks after week? Do we know their needs and their hurts...or even their last names?

BE SATISFIED
As a child, did you ever go to bed hungry? If you did, you know what it's like to have a gnawing sense of being unsatisfied haunt you throughout the night. But when you received physical food, did you still feel like you hadn't had enough? Were you ever satisfied?
Now let's address another kind of hunger and thirst that many of us may have faced...the hunger and thirst for God. This, too, can gnaw at you in the night. The question is, how do you become filled? Can this hunger for God ever be satisfied?
One reason many of us may be feeling dissatisfied in our spirit is from filling ourselves with the wrong things. Entertainment, overeating, overdrinking, overwork, new relationships and material possessions have all been used to try to fill inner emptiness...but they will never work, for Jesus said: "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life" The water which will make us continually thirst is the "water" of the world. Nothing derived from the physical world, self or Satan can ever truly satisfy our spiritual man...only the Spirit of God can do that. Start to spend the time to eat and drink of Him in His Word...and rest contentedly with your spirit filled – and be satisfied!...HAVE JESUS IN OUR LIVES AND WE WILL NEVER BE UNSATISFIED..

SHAMELESNESS
In these days, an increasing number of us are facing two emotions we may never have experienced before: humiliation and shame.
Just as Satan did everything in his power to make the children of Israel feel ashamed of themselves and their God, he is trying every tactic he knows, both directly and indirectly, to topple God's people through humiliation today. His direct approach may be to launch a straightforward attack on your witness for Christ or your biblical stand. His indirect method, sometimes even more destructive, will be attempts to bring shame and humiliation to you through others. he may entice your children to take drugs or tempt a spouse to be unfaithful. Divorce, homosexuality in the family, failure at work or financial distress can all bring deep remorse. But we to stand strong! God is with us. He promises us: For your (former) shame you shall have a twofold recompense; instead of dishonor and reproach your people shall rejoice in their portion; therefore in their land they shall possess double...everlasting joy shall be theirs. Brothers and Sisters, know that no matter what kind of disgrace we are enduring, no shame is too dark or too deep for Him to heal. He will lift us up.

NEW CONFIDENCE
Can you imagine how absurd it would be to see a young man walking around the house with his thumb in his mouth muttering, "Dad, have mercy on me. I need money for lunch. Please, Dad, have mercy on me."
Yet this is the attitude some of us have toward God. Instead of resting in the confidence that He longs to give us His best, nagging doubts might disturb your sleep. Your attitude becomes one of begging and pleading with Him. This lack of confidence could be rooted in a deep sense of insecurity. Subconsciously we may be uncertain about God and His love for us. No matter what it stems from, insecurity should not be a part of our new nature – it's a tool Satan uses to keep us in bondage to the old nature. I remember during the time that my life was in chaos, I always begging somebody to help me for a while to stand on my own feet but it never happens. It only make me more insecure, loss my self esteem and self confidence. Thanks to all my sisters and brothers in christ who always reminded me that I had to trust God. That God has plan for me and Jesus will never forsake me. God is starting to bring back my life, my self confidence and my self esteem. I was no longer hindered by my insecurity. Remember God wants to anoint us with a new confidence in Him. He wants us to say without a doubt: "Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need". Lay our insecurities at the cross, and sleep peacefully, knowing we are one of God's chosen, with all the boldness and confidence we need to approach Him as our loving Father, and to appropriate His riches from the throne of grace. God's Blessing to ALL..

PAINFUL QUESTION
One painful question we hear from grieving Christians is, "How can we ever stop mourning for a person who rejected Jesus until the day he died?"
Indeed, what comfort is there for a Christian who has lost an unsaved loved ones...especially when sometimes, deep in the night, guilt sets in: "If I'd only witnessed more." "If only she'd/he'd seen more of Christ's love in me; she'd/he'd be with the Lord now."
To those who feel guilt over neglected witnessing, we should simply remember , let the Lord be our comfort. The same Lord who made us a new person when we accepted Him and He is there to forgive all our sins. Repent of overlooked chances to witness, ask forgiveness, and ask the Lord to give us the courage to speak out more boldly from now on. Remember, we are washed clean: "...But we are washed, we are sanctified, you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God". It is the enemy who wants to keep us wallowing in guilt over past mistakes...not our Savior!
As for the loved one for whose salvation we mourn...it's not up to us to judge their final spiritual stand. We cannot know what goes on in a person's heart during their last minutes on the earth. The Lord is the only one with the answer. Meanwhile, we have to to regain the strength and courage the Lord wants us to have to be prepared to be a victorious witness and warrior for Him on the days ahed...

POWER IN WEAKNESS
Is anything too hard for God? The answer is no, yet some of us are perplexed because we have been told, we have an incurable physical condition. Some of us have prayed for years , gone to healing services, been anointed with oil and been faithful to God, but the infirmity still exists. Many nights some of us have laid awake feeling like a spiritual failure.
Please don't let these thoughts oppress us any longer! There is tremendous victory ahead, but God may want to achieve it in a way we have not yet considered. For while He is our Your Healer and a miracle-working God, He has granted some of us the privilege of coming into new spiritual power and maturity through the healing process.
Paul was one such person. After being told by Jesus that His strength was made perfect in weakness, Paul declared that he would then glory in his infirmities so that Christ's power would more abundantly rest on him (See 2 Corinthians 12:9-10.). The book of Hebrews shows us an even more dramatic picture of this principle. In describing the "Heroes of Faith” it says they: "...subdued kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promised blessings, closed the mouths of lions, Extinguished the power of raging fire, escaped the devourings of the sword, out of frailty and weakness won strength and became stalwart, even mighty and resistless in battle...” Pray for a new attitude toward our condition. We don't know what God will do in the future, but we can begin to use our existing circumstances as a steppingstone to greater spiritual power...

LOVE YOURSELF
Do you think Jesus loved Himself?" Of course He did. Yet there is controversy about self-love in the Church. Why? Because humanistic psychology has so infiltrated the Church that self-love has been associated with putting self on the throne. So although this matter may not keep you bothered, it is worth straightening out. E. Stanley Jones, a great missionary, said, "Frankly and honestly you must love yourself – not as a master, but as a servant; for the self is a glorious servant, but a gruesome master." Jesus knew this. He was at peace with Himself knowing that as a servant, He was perfectly expressing His divine nature. Self-glorification eventually turns on itself, ending in death, but humility rejoices and radiates life!
Humility. Servanthood. These are the qualities of your new nature which you can respect and love! It is the kind of self-love which produces rich fruit for others. As Paul said, "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a servant..

PLAN TO CHANGE THE WORLD
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of SEO 5 Consulting. All opinions are 100% mine.
I had a big heart for kids especially those who grew up in Orphan Institution. Every time I looked at them, I saw myself when I was young. A young girl who lives with my poster parents who provide all my needs. Since then I always dream to have my own children ministry or just to be a supporter of some children institution or children’s foundation. Unfortunately, since I came here in the US I was struggling financially. However, God knows my heart’s desire and now that I am start earnings, I was planning to pledge a monthly donation in one of our Local church in my hometown back home. I am planning to support kids for their spiritual well-being and at the same time help them to experience a better life than what they have. I am knocking to your heart if you have more than what you need do not hesitate to sponsor a child especially those who live Canada. Every day, in the poorest regions of the world, 25,000 children under 5 die because they lack access to things we take for granted – clean water, sanitation, medicine, and food. Your sponsorship will help the entire community of hopeless children and leave poverty behind. For just $ 35 a monthly pledge, you can invest in grassroots programs that will help local people build schools, train teachers, empower girls, dig wells, run health clinics, start small businesses, and much more. If you are ready to sponsor a child please visit their website at http://plancanada.ca/Page.aspx?pid=1181. Help to change the world by sponsoring a child.
NEW LIFE
One of the most shocking discoveries is the number of Christians who have considered, or are considering, suicide. They lie awake nights thinking, "I hate myself...there's no hope...why go on?" I am one of them once in my life. I am in the position that I don't want to go on and I feel that I am hopeless. Thanks to all friends who has prayed for me and God heard my cries.
If you are considering ending your life, I beg you to reconsider starting life anew instead... within you. "(Now) we have this (hope) as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul – it cannot slip and it cannot break down under whoever steps out upon it – (a hope) that reaches farther and enters into (the very certainty of the Presence) within the veil. Where Jesus has entered in for us (in advance), a Forerunner having become a High Priest forever after the order (with the rank) of Melchizedek" You may have no more faith; you may even feel there is no longer any hope left, but at a moment when the only answer appears to be to end it all...God can supernaturally place a tiny light at the end of that very dark, fearful corridor you are in and touch your spirit with a new light and revelation of Himself that will turn that dark hopelessness within you into a growing light of his truth, love, healing, strength and restoration of your own self-worth. Because of my faith and hope I'm starting my NEW LIFE with my LORD....
FIELD TRIPS FOR ALL
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Lunchables. All opinions are 100% mine.
Field trips expand children's learning through active hands-on experience with the rich resources of the local community. Field trips increase student knowledge and understanding of a subject and add realism to the topic of study. Field needs some preparation on both part of the teachers and the student. Usually, the parents itself do the task for their kids and on these is the food that their children were going to bring to their trip. Some recommended that heavy lunch should not be bring along because children do not usually eat much for they are more excited looking around and talking with their friends. Parents should include some sweets for it is a good source of glucose. Because sugar level usually decreased when expose to extreme temperature that causes hypoglycemia. Chewing gum should be limited because it produces gas that might cause abdominal upset and might hamper the kids for enjoying the field trip. The majority of field trip groups bring packed lunches with them but others prefer to buy or order to the nearest store that they were going to pass by. Some bring along junk foods or pretzels that they eat along their way to the designated places to ease boredom while on trip. Drinks are highly recommended especially hot whether because fieldtrip requires walking that keeps us sweat. Keep hydrated all day long will make your trip more worth. Parents should not worry about all these things because Lunchables Lunch Combinations wants to help deserving kids across the country go on an inspiring, educational experience with the launch of the program, Field Trips For All . This is the first effort from the Lunchables Team’s new initiative called Project Potential. It aimed at empowering kids with opportunities to help them reach their full potential; Project Potential will provide enriching experiences kids might otherwise not have. Anyone 6 years of age or older can nominate a deserving classroom by going to http://www.lunchables.com/potential/ and submitting a nomination. From all nominations received, 50 classrooms will be selected to go on an inspiring, educational experience. Therefore, what are you waiting for nominate one now so the classroom you would like to be included will not miss this amazing opportunity.

LEARN TO RECEIVE
Many of us may occasionally fall into bed drained...totally depleted from giving yourself to others. For some this is not a some-time occurrence, but a regular habit. If you are one who never feels your energies are replenished or your body revitalized, why? Do you give too much? Maybe not. The problem may be that, although you love to give, you have never learned to receive. I have learned that the two are equally important. Both giving and receiving are not only essential to maintain a healthy, creative career and personal life, but are an important part of our spiritual life, too. Some of us only wanted to received., all is not about material things, some of us only wanted to be understand by our brothers and sisters but we don't want to give understanding to others. Jesus knew how to receive. When the woman anointed His head with oil and wiped His feet with her tears, He highly commended her. When Mary poured a pound of rare perfume all over Him at Lazarus' house, Jesus defended her.
Allowing ourselves to receive from others or from God can be a truly humbling experience. Sometimes, walls of inner defenses have to come down. It may seem more comfortable to give than to learn to receive. You start by letting God give to you. This is why the Apostle Paul prayed: "(That you may really come) to know – practically, through experience for yourselves – the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge (without experience); that you may be filled (through all your being) unto all the fullness of God...and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself"

GENTLE TOUCH
During my walk on my christian life I realized some important thing about our attitude. One of humans attitude are being judgemental. Sometimes we judge our brothers or sisters, friends, thru their actions. Even young kids sometimes they would discipline their friends for some real imagined wrong "SHAME ON YOU" they would say, shaking their little fists, "HOW COULD YOU DO SUCH A THING?" Have you ever wanted to do that? Do you find yourself, wanting to shake your fist at a boss or a spouse, a friend because of some real or imagined sin in their life?

HELP FROM ABOVE
Have you been seeking help but keep coming up empty handed? I asked this question because I've been in that situation once in a while. I forgot that the true help we need is not found in a man. Our helper himself says in his word"Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man. My friend, our true help from our trouble is our LORD himself. Every time we have looked to man or the system we probably worst before we began to look. Now we have to believe and and accept that fact that the Lord loves us no matter what, it is because of sin which the Lords hates, he sent his son. But God demonstrated his own love for us that while we were sinners Christ died for us. Sin, which is the devils tools, creates trouble for us and make us feel trapped. Sin separates us from our loving GOD. I can say this because I experienced this in my life. I trust a man , I trust i had, everything about me, and when I needed help I beg him to helped me. I forgot to ask God for help and that omy Lord is my true helper whatever circumstances I had. With my true helper (JESUS) I can start my life all over again. With him I am starting picking up the pieces of my life which is being destroyed in trusting a man. With Christ I am a new creation. So friends if you need help trust on HIM..

TOMORROW'S CHILD
In every couple one of their joyous pride are having their own children. Once a woman got pregnant one of the exciting word come out of her mouth is this.. We're going to have a baby!" What joyous news this is. But as the months of pregnancy drag on, disturbing doubts can creep in to interrupt both your much-needed peaceful sleep. One of the question always in your mind is..
"Will I be a good parent? I don't know anything about raising a child! How do I know I won't make the same mistakes my folks made with me? Why are some children so rebellious or sad? What are the best self-help books I can buy?"
I know what you're going through! But there is no greater "self-help" course in the world for new parents or parents-to-be than God's Word.
All parents had to rely strictly on the Lord. Of course there were many problems, but none He didn't answer! Don't let doubts, fears and worries about tomorrow's child tear you apart. Concentrate instead on growing closer to the Lord as He promises you: Know that He has specifically chosen you to be His parent to a very special child. Having biological child is not the only meaning of being a parent. You can be a parent to those unfortunate child who needs love, cares, and true guidance to be a tommorows children of God. I lost my parents in a very young age, and I thank my poster parents who gave me love, who cares for me, who taught me to be a good person, who show me the love and affection of a true family. That's why when my marriage failed I was hurt so badly because I never saw this picture in a family where I grew up. Inspite of all I believed that I am a child of GOD and he loves me truly..
