LOVE POT

SandyFla:
My strength is made perfect in weakness (2 Cor. 12:9).

O Lord my God, I put my trust in You (Psalm 7:1).

Whether we live or die, we are the Lord's (Romans 14:8).

chuckusa:
Thanks Keesha, and Sandyfla,

I'll add yours to the pot!

I am going to try AGAIN to make it this weekend. I ended up in the hospital myself, so we had to put it off. Its actually good because I had some time to read up on HOW to make pottery...I would assume that will help!!

Thanks to all,
Chuck

Psa 121:1  <A Song of degrees.> I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
Psa 121:2  My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
Psa 121:3  He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

You may have started a new way to comfort those in the hospital.  What a ministry it could be.

Hi Brian,

I never really thought of that, but I suppose you are right. Many cancer patients lose hope. One reason is that some cancers progress slowly, and the treatments take lots of time. People forget about them...

We wanted to make something that would be a constant reminder to Joyce, that we still love her, and haven't forgotten her. I started a small ministry about 35 years ago called The Ninth Hour. I would buy small KJ scripture booklets and pass them out to friends, Sunday school classes, and small churches. We still do this today. I took 2000 printed in mandarin chinese to Taiwan last summer.

You know, the funny thing is...now, people seem so suspicious of us when we do this. They act like we are trying to pull some type of scam. I have always paid for all of this myself, even when I was  8 years old, I would mow lawns to pay for it. I never asked for one penny, or tried to sell them or anything like that.

I tried to start an internet prayer group a few years ago but was a huge flop. I was trying to encourage people to pray for OTHERS, rather than themselves...but I guess not too many people want to do that. Besides that, I couldn't raise $4,000 for a server... :-\  I took that to mean a "move on" from God.

I guess the world is getting colder. But thankfully, by the grace of God, I am getting WARMER... :) :) :)

I just say reach out ...any, and everyway you can. That is a good idea Brian, I wish I knew how to turn it in to a reality.

Love,
chuck

Amen Chuck, Amen.
