……………………THOUGHT FOR THE DAY…………………….
REMAIN IN ME, AND I WILL REMAIN IN YOU. NO BRANCH
CAN BEAR FRUIT BY ITS SELF; IT MUST REMAIN IN THE
VINE. NEITHER CAN YOU BEAR FRUIT UNLESS YOU
REMAIN IN ME. I AM THE VINE; YOU ARE THE BRANCHES.
IF A MAN REMAINS IN ME AND I IN HIM, HE WILL BEAR
MUCH FRUIT; APART FROM ME YOU CAN DO NOTHING.
( JOHN 15:4-5 *NIV )
Now our Savior Jesus Christ is the vine and we are the
branches, so you may ask what is this fruit? The answer
is found in the Book of Galatians, for it is written; THE FRUIT OF
THE SPIRIT IS LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS,
GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS AND SELF
CONTROL. AGAINST SUCH THINGS THERE IS NO LAW.
(GALATIANS 5:22-23 )
The fruit of the Spirit is the work of the Holy Spirit within
us, for it produces these character traits in us. It helps us to
become more like Christ, which should be the goal of every
Christian.
This happens to us because; IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST,
HE IS A NEW CREATION; OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED
AWAY; BEHOLD, ALL THING HAVE BECOME NEW.
( 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17 )
So, why not take a few minutes tonight and read this
wonderful 15th Chapter of John. For those words were spoken
by our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Now may; THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST,
AND THE LOVE OF GOD, AND THE COMMUNION OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT BE WITH YOU ALL. Amen.
(2 CORINTHIANS 13:14 )
With our love and prayers.

Because of some serious health and mobility problems since October 2016, I have not been able to travel and raise financial support for this ministry as I have in the past. We thank GOD that we do have a few long time supporters who have stood with us, but we have now reached a point where we really need some additional financial help!
Will you please become one of our supporters.
If you support our ministry you will be helping win souls, strengthen God’s people, and providing charity in times of need through “OPERATION WECARE” which is our 501c3, tax exempt, charitable corporation.
Please make this a serious prayer matter.
Have a wonderful day, and may the love of Christ
fill your heart and mind, now and always.
