“Be patient with me…”

August 13^th

Matthew 18:21 – 19:1 "Be patient with me…"

We live in a society where Patience is lacking. Fast paced, fast food, at your fingertips is what we want and we want it all now. We fail so many times to forgive others, but yet we want to be forgiven for our sins and debts. Jesus tells us to forgive "not seven times but seventy-seven times." Forgiveness is a Grace from God, because none of us are worthy of God's forgiveness, but only through His Grace and Mercy are we truly forgiven. Forgive someone who has wronged you today. Be patient today when confronted with that person who is 'working your last nerve' and ask the Lord to fill you with the Grace of patience. If you wish to be forgiven, you must ensure to forgive others. Just stop, pray, listen, forgive and keep on keepin' on!

Blessings and Peace to you!

“… praise was on the tip of my tongue.”

Psalm 66:16-17 - Hear now, all you who fear God, while I declare what he has done for me. … praise was on the tip of my tongue.

Put a Praise on your tongue! Recognize what God has done for you; He gave you life; He gave you shelter; He gave you the Gift of Praise. When you appeal to God in prayer for supplications we Give Praise, Honor and Glory to Him for everything He has done for us and all that He will do for us, so always, put a praise on your tongue, because someone is going to need a Word today. A Word of Blessing; thanksgiving; a Word of encouragement and this is YOUR day to be a Blessing to someone else. Bless them with the Praise of the Glory of the Father in your life, to encourage them to seek Him for strength, understanding, wisdom and peace.

KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON!!!

It is the LORD, your God, who will cross before you;

Dt 31:3 – "It is the LORD, your God, who will cross before you; he will destroy these nations before you..."

Moses was 120 years old when he told the Israelites that he was no longer able to move about freely. Basically, the brother was tired! We also get tired of not just wandering the desert, but fighting battles that do not belong to us. Resolve this day to let the Lord fight your battles for you. Choose to let the Lord step out for you today and let Him destroy all the evil that will befall you. The Evil One will stop at nothing to take the Joy the Lord has placed in your heart away from you, and you must say, "I am going to LIVE for the Lord today" and not allow anything to take away your joy, the Joy that you have in Christ Jesus.

“God is able to make every grace abundant for you...”

2 Cor. 9:8 –

He's Able! This should resonate in your mind all day today… He's ABLE! The Good work God has begun in you, through His Grace, He is able to do ALL things for you, Exceedingly, Abundantly and OVERWHELMINGLY… HE'S ABLE! When you think you can no longer go on, that is when God is able to finally take control. People are so wrong (in my humble opinion) when I see the bumper sticker, "God is my Co-Pilot." No, no, no… God is your PILOT and you my brother and sister are along for the ride. God is in control of your every move today, your mind, your thoughts and your feelings. Let Him make every Gift, abundant for you today, in your good works.

KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON!!!

“This is enough, O LORD!”

1 Kings 19:4

How many times have we found ourselves saying this to God, over and over and over again; "Enough, Lord…I can't take it anymore!" We often feel as if we are in a barren desert not finding our way, disgusted with God. It seems as if Elijah did the same thing. This great warrior of God who ran into the desert, out of fear, forsaking all that he knew and understood, found solace under a Broom Tree. A bush in the middle of a barren land that requires little care to flourish, that provides protection and rest. Today your protection and rest lies in something much greater than a Broom Tree… it is the outstretched arms of Jesus Christ. His roots are deep and everlasting, we only need take solace in Him, and He will give us rest this day.

Parish Mission/Revival/Night of Reflections…

Brothers and Sisters, I pray you and your families are well during these most uncertain of economic times. Things have gotten so bad for millions of Americans all over, worse that my Generation (born in the mid 60's) has ever seen or had to suffer through, but we know that 'All Things are Possible' through Christ who is our source of Hope.

I pray that you have been blessed by the daily "Morning Dew" messages I have been trying to provide over the past several weeks and God willing, I will continue to do so. I am glad that through a couple of comments, to know that the Lord has blessed you through the words He has chosen to speak through me, and please know that you all continue to remain in our daily prayers as well as us lifting up your intentions for every Mass we attend; Sunday as well as throughout the week and our devotions.

I would humbly ask your consideration of conducting an Advent Parish Mission; Revival; or even a Night of Reflection for your Parish, within the coming months. I have dedicated my life to serving the Lord, and His People on earth to be able to just give all people some sort of Hope and Solace in these tumultuous times we live in. People are suffering from stress and taking it out in unhealthy ways, on family, drinking, even as we have seen in the news lately with people turning to violence.

The only way out of what we are in, is through Jesus; as you well know He IS the Way, but each of us must also do our part for the kingdom, that the Gospel continue to be proclaimed.

For the remainder of 2009, I (Evangelist Richard Lane) am doing ALL Parish Missions/Revivals and Nights of Reflection for NO STIPEND! I would ask that the inviting Parish take care of expenses for Air Transportation to and from your location, and I am more than willing to stay at the Rectory during my visit. For the remainder of 2009 I am doing these for 'Free Will Love Offerings' ONLY!

I still have open dates for September, October, (not many for November, unless you are in California), as well as open dates for Advent in December.

We also rely on your generosity in a General "Free Will Love Offering" to help us through the daily things in life. You can do so by clicking on THIS FREE WILL LINK and it will take you to a link to donate.

If you would like to help us with a specific concern that we have, please feel free to contact Richard@Qorban.net

Most importantly we would ask for your continued prayers that God will continue to strengthen and guide this Nation we live in and that the millions of people and families that are suffering throughout America, will have some type of Grace sent to them soon.

May God bless you and May God bless the United States of America as well as its leaders.

Remember – "You can't have Victory without a Struggle!" KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON!

PS… please pray for the book I am currently writing – The actual writing should be completed within the next two weeks and then the editing process. With the Grace of God, it might go to print before the end of this year – thank you so much for the prayers!

“Nothing will be impossible for you.”

August 8^th

Matthew 17:20 – "Nothing will be impossible for you."

Jesus, I am certain was disappointed in His disciples because they had been with Him for so long, had seen so many Glorious works and deeds, but yet they continued to lack Faith. Begin this day by moving a Mountain in your life; the Mountain of Grief, Despair, and Hopelessness; Whatever is in your life that is holding you back from total submission to God; with Faith the size of a Mustard seed, say to that Mountain – MOVE Mountain MOVE! Go forward on this day with confidence and face whatever your fear is and know that Jesus will make a Way out of no way.
