Charles Frazier Stanley

Charles Stanley went to Heaven. He made his mark on this world for the Gospel and his incredible teaching of God’s Word. I like so many others were blessed by hearing his messages on the radio and TV and he was a trusted voice we have all been encouraged by. It was my privilege to meet Dr. Stanley in person in Charlotte, North Carolina at the funeral for Billy Graham. He was warm and gracious. No doubt, he has already heard Jesus say, “Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Lord.” Charles Stanley will be greatly missed. 

[Greg Laurie]

Charles Stanley was a good man who loved God, followed Christ and kept his faith unto the end. That’s all that matters. He kept his faith unto the end. Grace covers a multitude of sins, even questionable theology. 

[Christopher Gregory] 

What a glorious homecoming Dr. Stanley is getting to experience now! God has truly called him home after a lifetime of faithful service.

Matthew 25:21 ... His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. ❤

Queen Elizabeth II

One of the chaplains of her Majesty, had been preaching on the Second Coming of the Lord.  

And afterward, in conversation with the chaplain, the Queen exclaimed: 

" Oh! how I wish that the Lord would come in my lifetime! " 

" Why," asked the chaplain, " does your Majesty feel this very earnest desire?" 

The Queen replied with quivering lips, and her whole countenance lighted up by deep emotion: " I should so love to lay my crown at His feet."

Revelation 4:10-11 ... The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,  Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

His Commandments

If God would have wanted us to live in a permissive society He would have given us Ten Suggestions and not Ten Commandments.

[Zig Ziglar November 6, 1926 - November 28, 2012]

John 14:15 ... If ye love me, keep my commandments.

John 14:21 ... He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

1 John 5:2-3 ... By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

1 John 2:3 ...  And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. ❤

Veterans Day Tribute

Representing the red white and blue, The colors of our flag stand out proud and true.

The white stars on blue background with red and white stripes, Remind me of these veterans, who all risked their lives.

Just so the people of the U.S. could all live in peace and be free, These are the heroes that represent you and me.

They stood up strongly, untied as one, And kept up the fighting until they were done. And although some have fallen, and lost their lives in war, We pray for each one of them. And now that their souls live on forever more.

Above in God's hands. They watch over our nation, And give us strength to triumph over others with strong anticipation. So every year, when this day comes by, Think of all the veterans that while fighting, had to die.

And remember that they were people With fire and passion embedded inside. They die for this country, So remember and honor them with pride.

The Cross and The Towers

September 11, 2001 - A day that will never be forgotten. A day when ordinary men and women would face the unbelievable, and experience what few ever dreamed or thought possible: A terrorist attack in the heart of New York claiming nearly three thousand lives and leaving a scene of incomprehensible destruction.

As rescue and recovery began, a select group of men and women would be forced to endure their worst nightmare: living and working within ground zero. Day after day they worked to restore the broken city. As weeks turned into months a feeling of desperation and despair overwhelmed the hearts and minds of these people.

Yet in the midst of the devastation, an amazing discovery would bring hope when it was needed most. Some called it a mere phenomenon, others saw it as miraculous….

“It's a story about hope in the midst of devastation when hope is nowhere to be found. It's an answer from God when we ask Him ... Where are you? It's a story that everyone need to see because it can be an encouragement in our darkest hour.” [quote by Scott Perkins]

The Price of Freedom

O, God,

I stand atop a grassy knoll

And see so clearly Freedom's toll

‘Neath cross and star in row on row

They rest as we in Freedom go.

O, God,

Help me never to forget

The price they paid with faces set

Toward victory, and lives of peace

For us who rest in Freedom's ease.

The cost of Freedom I now see

I'll not forget it was for me

They paid with all that they could give.

They rest 'neath cross and star. I live.

O, God.

1 John 3:16 … Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

John 5:13 … Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Jesus ~ Our Only Hope

Beloved, God has never failed to act but in goodness and love. When all means fail—his love prevails. Hold fast to your faith. Stand fast in his Word. There is no other hope in this world.

[David Wilkerson ~ May 19,1931 – April 27,2011]

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 1 Peter 1:3

For we are saved by hope: Romans 8:24

Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. Romans 15:13

But I will hope continually, and will yet praise thee more and more. Psalm 71:14

For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel; Colossians 1:5

Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, 2 Thessalonians 2:16

In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; Titus 1:2 ♥

Where were you?

♥ Through blurred eyes we find the strength and courage to soar beyond the moment. We look to the future knowing we can never forget the past.

It Is Well With My Soul

Words: Ho­ra­tio G. Spaf­ford, 1873.

This hymn was writ­ten af­ter ma­jor trau­mas in Spaf­ford’s life. The first was the great Chi­ca­go Fire of Oc­to­ber 1871, which ru­ined him fi­nan­cial­ly (he had been a weal­thy bus­i­ness­man). Before the fire, Spafford also experienced the loss of his son. Short­ly af­ter the fire, while cross­ing the At­lan­tic, all four of Spaf­ford’s daugh­ters died in a col­li­sion with an­o­ther ship. Spaf­ford’s wife Anna sur­vived and sent him the now fa­mous tel­e­gram, “Saved alone.” Sev­er­al weeks lat­er, as Spaf­ford’s own ship passed near the spot where his daugh­ters died, the Ho­ly Spir­it in­spired these words. They speak to the eter­nal hope that all be­liev­ers have, no mat­ter what pain and grief be­fall them on earth.
