SnowDEN with the Fam'

This is from my Mom's Praying for the Generations blog, to important not to share it here.  http://momsprayingforthegenerations.blogspot.com/2012/06/we-are-body-joined-together.html    WE ARE THE BODY-JOINED TOGETHER By Daneille Gray Snowden FOCUS OF PRAYER IS: PRAY FOR THE CHURCH TO BE ONE. [Please note all highlighted words directs you to a link.] Recently the Lord has burdened me for  Bodies of Christ  in my own community who are deeply hurting as they are being torn apart. Groups are getting up and moving on to a larger church in town or starting their own little meetings scattered all around. This is such a common problem that has existed for decades. We all find ourselves not even flinching when this occurs. Kinda like marital divorce between husband and wife; our cultural has become somewhat callused to it.

Paul Gray)  MADE THIS INTO A FRAME & ADDED A PEN.                       ...

Greetings my friends! Hope this summer has been spectacular for all of you. I wanted to share with you all my heart as I ponder on the legacy of the cross through fathers. Here is a personal note to my own daddy. Hope it inspires and blesses! LEGACY OF THE CROSS  Through My Father:    Rev. Paul F. Gray Father’s Day 2012    To many, the cross represents death. Obviously this is correct---but the cross is pointing! The Cross points to life beyond what we could ever imagine. When  the Lord Jesus’ died on the Cross of Calvary, there came a ‘gushing-out’ of much power and victory. In His death, souls were freed (even at that litteral  moment-Lu. 23:43); bodies healed, families restored and hope gained.     Not turning to the left or the right, but going forward carrying His cross our Lord did this for us, for our salvation and an example for all to live by.  In so much, as we all were once little children we had...
