So far, the siding is almost completed and the walls are all framed in. The windows are installed and the doors. The plumber is expected to show up sometime in the near future as well. Actually, the workers have been expecting him since last Wednesday, so who knows. When the plumber and electrician are finished, I think that the insulation and dry wall can begin, but even now, it's easy to tell where the rooms are and the closets and so forth. Yesterday, Greg and I took a measuring tape out to our room and started planning where the bed would go and the bedside tables, just for fun. Also, yesterday, because the workers don't come on Friday, and the house was empty, I took a cup of coffee out there just to sit in my new room, alone, for a while. It didn't last for very long. Honey and Caleb found me, but that's the way it will always be and has always been, so I'm used to it. Matt is still looking for work so please keep him in your prayers!

The head of the crew told Greg last week that it could still be another 8 weeks though. I guess that detail work takes time, but I hope that he was wrong. At least it's a lot easier now to believe that it's really going to happen. I walk through the place as it is now and I am in just total awe that God has been so kind to let us have a better place. I walk through the house, even as it is and all I can think about is how amazing God is and how blessed we are. It is so humbling. We have so much compared to so many. I just pray that we can use this latest tool for His glory. Kathy ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!

See, you don't like it when I'm quiet either! GRin! Actually, I didn't even get your note until probably twelve hours after you wrote it. My son, Chris, has discovered playing StarCraft on line. Goodness, if it isn't one thing with that boy it is another! Anyway, the only computer that is hooked up with the internet is mine so I got kicked off so that my son could defend the universe, or something like that. Thankfully, he is talking about saving up for a computer after he pays for drivers Ed. so this will hopefully be a short term inconvenience and with every room wired in my new snazy house, he can pay for his own internet hook up too and leave me alone! GRIN!! Oh brother. then I'll have to begin worrying about other problems with him. Well guys, that's the latest news from Lake Woe Begone, and may the force be with you! GRIN!

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Vinny, So good to hear from you. Thanks for updating us on the whirlwind of events in your life this summer. How good God is to take care of your computer needs. Isn't it strange how when we think the worst has happened, God turns it in to a blessing instead. And how wonderful to allow you to have that uplifting conversation with your friend before his going home time. I've certainly an idea that there are more ore wonderful times to come between the two of you on glory side. Carol hasn't been on list but she has been having continuing difficulties with her ears and back. Her recent medical apointments have been more on the positive side than on the negative. So do continue to remember her in prayer. Haven't had an update on Gail for a while.

I thought there was some setting that would work, and what makes it worse, is that I can't find the particular tutorial tape that tells how to do this.

We have certainly missed you around here for the last two months. Since you were here, Phil has had sleep studies and some strange dreams during that time, Kathy practically has a house, Karey is back with us, Shellly is training with her guide dog, I have gone through four drivers this summer and winter is on the way. I believe that God made it possible for you to talk with your friend Paul before his leaving this world. Praise Him that you had that conversation with Paul. Welcome back and keep us informed.

I thought at first I was being a hypochondriac, because I've had two co-workers develop breast cancer. One caught it early and is okay, since it didn't affect her lymph nodes. The other wasn't so lucky, in that her cancer spread, and the prognosis doesn't look good. Anyway, I kept looking at the lump, which I'd sometimes find easily and other times not at all, wondering if it was my imagination. Finally last night I told my husband about it and showed him the spot, and he felt it too. It seems to be near the surface, and doesn't seem to be attached to anything, so we're hoping it's just a cyst. But I have an appoihntment on Tuesday to have it checked out, so pray that I have peace about the situation until then, and that God gives the doctor wisdom in how to deal with it. Thanks.

Sipping a cup of bean in your new house? be it completed or not, it is a great feeling isn't it? Regarding the time of completion left? I'll mention three points. A. This is not uncommon in contracting of homes as they usually build several at one time to make the crews more efficient. And, even though it is not your favorite thought to be delayed at all... B. I'd let the contractor know you expect no more lolligagging, but I'd not push continually as you may well be jeopardizing quality. Being a roofing contractor for years I know if a customer were to continually push for completion or just always be in the face, we'd wind up doing what we could to get off that job and onto another. I'm not saying to let them get away with delaying, but I'd let them know you are watching and want it done in a reasonable time slot. And thirdly... C. Enjoy the journey. It isn't everyday you have a home built and although there is anxiety in getting into it, corral that anxiety and transform it to a savoring of the day you walk in and all the furniture and etc is in place and you will walk in the old one no more. The journey can also be fun, which you seem to be making it from walking on the dirt piles to sipping coffee in your new room.

I like being able to walk through it every day and exploring each new thing. For example, the electrician came on Saturday and strung more than 1,500 feet of wire and cable and phone line through the house. It's amazing to be able to explore that and then find this huge bundle of wire sticking out of the basement wall like spaghetti is just so cool. It really helps me to appreciate what goes into the construction of a house. The concerns lie in this area. We had originally thought that the house would be done in July so Greg had removed the skirting to the mobile home in June and put most of the axels on already, preparing it to be moved. Now, we're coming in to heating season here in Maine with very little protection from the cold. You know how our pipes froze last winter. Well, now we're much more volnerable so more delay could be almost dangerous. Also, the mobile home is depreciating the longer it sits here unsold and I don't need to explain that any furtherr. We're also having to keep insurance on both structures. Finally, if the home isn't done soon, the landscaping won't get done this fall which means that we could havve really hazardous ground around the house with a lot of ice build up and uneven surfaces. I'm not going to be too keen on walking around our house this winter if it continues looking the way that it does now. I know that it's all in the Lord's hands. He seems to be great at teaching me patience. I really need the lessons too. We did receive the shipment of dry wall this morning around 6:30, but they can't do much with it before the plumber arrives and does his thing for the base board heat. Oh well, "all in good time my pretty, all in good time!" Kathy ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi to all, Well, as the subject line says: "I'm back"! I really didn't expect to be away for so long, but sometimes the Lord needs us to stop some of the things we're doing in order to focus on Him. In my case, as many of you know, I haven't been well for ages and ages. I'm still not in good health at all and need your prayers, but I do think it's time to return and am really glad to have fellowship with you all again. For any who are fairly new to the list and don't know me, I'm Carol from the UK and live now in Reading with my husband, Mike. We love the Lord and, truly, He loves us! I have been a part of the ECHURCH-US list for several years now, with a couple of breaks. We now have our UK list, though it's very different from the US one, and I love to be a part of both. I have heard news of you all from time to time, as Phil and Vicki have kept me informed. Thanks also to those who have written personally. Since last I was with you all, the Lord has continued to do a lot of healing work in me and I know now that I am "one person" and free from the Dissociated Identity Disorder I'd suffered for years! The Lord has given me some very wonderful and intimate times with Himself which I want to be more frequent and lasting! His most recent words to me have encouraged me both that He opens and closes doors and nobody can stop Him (so I look for far bigger things to happen than ever I could ask or think) and also that He does things in His order and I am to simply trust Him that His order is good and right! -- Carol [log in to unmask] --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Um! I may need him at my house today, as we seem to have a drain problem in the basement. Can't do a stick of laundry until it's fixed. We've tried remedies but they haven't worked. So you might pray that this is easily remedied without costing us two arms and two legs. At least it won't be weekend rates. So if he shows up at your house first Kathy, tell him to work quickly and efficiently, and send him to me. If He shows up here first, I'll do the same. Ha.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Thank you Vinny for asking. God has been gracious to our family by helping us to keep Chris busy this summer and that has reduced the strain on our family a great deal. In June, he landed a job at a convenience store, doing odd jobs for the owner and that takes up about 25 hours a week. He took one summer school class in July, that he had to pay for and that kept him busy in the mornings for a time as well. He started out doing really well, but as soon as he was pretty sure that he would pass the class he started lapsing into old patterns of laziness and ended up passing with a D. Of course, we, his parents, were disappointed since Chris had demonstrated that he was capable of doing much better, but we're learning the hard way that you can't make a child care, no matter how wise that would be. He continues to have angry outbursts, but they are much less frequent and much more controlled so I guess that that is a big step forward. I still seem to be the main person that he flares up at, but then, we can also hug and I've told him that as long as we can do that, we'll get through the rest. Chris agrees. Chris has earned enough money to pay for drivers Ed. and he will begin that this Wednesday. He wants to keep his job. Money is more important than academics right now and we're considering just letting him roll with it rather than fight him on it. He knows what is more important really, but he doesn't want to do the right thing so we're thinking of taking Dr. Kevin Leman's advice and let Chris learn through natural consequences of his choices. It might sound kind of wimpy on our part, but some day, he's going to wake up and regret chasing the wrong things. We all do eventually, especially if God's hand is upon our lives, and I believe firmly that, whether Chris knows it or not, he is firmly held in God's grasp. I trust that God knows what He is doing. Perhaps the hardest time for me this summer with Chris is when my oldest son, Matt, left for college. Matt left Maine for Michigan the first of August to look for work before school starts. I had a real hard time with his leaving, but harder still was chris's attitude of being thrilled to finally have a room to himself and he just started pitching out Matt's stuff and I had to go through it and try to salvage it before it got lost or damaged. Chris was in the type of mood where, if I cried he would have blown up and I really had to hold it together to make it through. Of course, knowing that Matt still hasn't found work has been real agony for me because I know how hard he's trying and Chris seems to be totally oblivious to his older brother's struggles. Chris could be bluffing. He does try to be the tough guy, but I just find the bluster hard to handle at times. Well Vinny, I guess that that catches you up on chris. Again, thanks for asking, and for praying. I really appreciate it very much!

Brad responds: I can tell you from experience it is far from whimpy on your part to stand back and not try to assert corrective measures or try to explain why he ought do the things he ought do. Although I do not have outbursts of anger with my son, we do struggle with him regarding academics verses playtime or his job, as well as general responsibility as we think he ought be at his age. I am soooooooo tired of the lecture of why he needs good grades, why he ought bring his homework home, and when he does bring it home and completes it, to actually hand it in? Novel thought there huh? He just doesn't connect the need for it, to his life beyond where he is now. My son is a very hands on kid, very sharp. He can tell you anything you want to know about speakers and how they work, car amps, radios, how to install them and why this much ohm, watt or impedance is needed and etc. but if that was a class in school he'd flunk it, yet he is sought after by those around him to install these amps, radios and speakers systems into cars, and not all by kids but adults as well. He is a last minute Joe. He waits until last minute to take action, and on the major stuff he will, the minor stuff he won't. My wife and I were gone this weekend, jumped in the car and headed west, in fact found ourselves sitting in Pat and Vernon Ferguson's living room in South Dakota laughing and jawing away, again thanks Pat for the visit, anyway upon our return, with my son being the only one home all weekend, we came home to nearly all the windows open and air conditioning running, as well back sliding door with only the screen closed and open for all to do whatever. I've learned to not drive myself nuts with fits of how I might punish him, but rather I tell him about it with disappointment, and the next time we leave opportunity for him to be responsible, I'll lay down some guidelines or else he pays for it in time or his paycheck. He understands the latter. It is not easy to let them face the consequences from their mistakes, especially when you know right where they are headed and they get down on themselves when they do crash. Perhaps the wisdom is better planted on ground that has been tilled with life's experience where water can absorb and nourish it, rather than bouncing off of hard headed surface not yet tilled. I'm supposing this occurred with us to a degree as young adults too, but it does seem to be to a greater degree of challenge, but perhaps that is my bias opinion *smile*.

In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Kathy, I believe preserving the relationship is wise. I think there becomes a point in which one must look at how the child can position him or herself in such a spot which requires constant correction, and thus constant beating upon their self-esteem, and let it ride or strategically issue correction. In a strange way I believe they see it as a way of forcing a parent to care for them, perhaps differently than the other child or children in the family. The thing is I've noticed with my son is if I leave him alone, and do not press him on issues I feel are needed for a responsible life, he'll go and get a new job, pick up a really good deal on something he's been wanting. In other words he is a survivor, and does very well actually by the seat of his pants. No doubt he risks not making the last minute play and suffering the consequences, but I guess we could as well even with all the responsible preparing. The problem is, distant as it is, my son has a role model or which proves academics isn't important, but networking in business is, relationships and knowing people can provide success in seat of your pants living and no grandiose life plan. He sees it in his grandfather who is doing well for himself and just sort of makes his way through life by swinging deals, networking with people, and etc. I've learned to not be so pro-college with my son, and learned that he will likely do just fine out in the hands-on world, in fact may well do better there than many college folks as blue collar work, in a trade is becoming more in demand. For instance they train young folks at a tech college here in hydraulics with a 95% placement at $60,000 the first year. You will not find a college student making that kind of income even a few years after college in many places in the country. So I've learned to just stress he needs to get passing grades in school. And surprisingly in today's grading standards that is a "D". Once my son explained the grading system, I learned that his grade of D was the same percentile as my grade of C when I went to school. Much more is required of students today percentage wise to achieve the same letter grade than when we were in school.

In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Kathy, As I've read through the various posts, I feel as though I've sort of caught up on Chris and your family sagas, and nothing seems any easier. However, I really do believe that the *only* thing you can do now is to place him into God's hands and leave him there while you just quietly trust in God! Yes, that sounds hard and from one who doesn't have children of her own, but the Lord had to teach me this lesson about my niece who, as many will remember, just took and took and took, always promising to give back but never quite making it. Well, finally I got the message that I must stop trying to force her into making right decisions and leave her to make her own. After all, she's old enough now and I can well do without the hassle. Now, instead of talking and almost pleading - and maybe nagging her - I simply just have to pray! I believe that's where trust comes in! -- Carol [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Kathy Du Bois Sent: 23 August 2004 19:37 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: My son Chris. Thank you Vinny for asking. God has been gracious to our family by helping us to keep Chris busy this summer and that has reduced the strain on our family a great deal. In June, he landed a job at a convenience store, doing odd jobs for the owner and that takes up about 25 hours a week. He took one summer school class in July, that he had to pay for and that kept him busy in the mornings for a time as well. He started out doing really well, but as soon as he was pretty sure that he would pass the class he started lapsing into old patterns of laziness and ended up passing with a D. Of course, we, his parents, were disappointed since Chris had demonstrated that he was capable of doing much better, but we're learning the hard way that you can't make a child care, no matter how wise that would be. He continues to have angry outbursts, but they are much less frequent and much more controlled so I guess that that is a big step forward. I still seem to be the main person that he flares up at, but then, we can also hug and I've told him that as long as we can do that, we'll get through the rest. Chris agrees. Chris has earned enough money to pay for drivers Ed. and he will begin that this Wednesday. He wants to keep his job. Money is more important than academics right now and we're considering just letting him roll with it rather than fight him on it. He knows what is more important really, but he doesn't want to do the right thing so we're thinking of taking Dr. Kevin Leman's advice and let Chris learn through natural consequences of his choices. It might sound kind of wimpy on our part, but some day, he's going to wake up and regret chasing the wrong things. We all do eventually, especially if God's hand is upon our lives, and I believe firmly that, whether Chris knows it or not, he is firmly held in God's grasp. I trust that God knows what He is doing. Perhaps the hardest time for me this summer with Chris is when my oldest son, Matt, left for college. Matt left Maine for Michigan the first of August to look for work before school starts. I had a real hard time with his leaving, but harder still was chris's attitude of being thrilled to finally have a room to himself and he just started pitching out Matt's stuff and I had to go through it and try to salvage it before it got lost or damaged. Chris was in the type of mood where, if I cried he would have blown up and I really had to hold it together to make it through. Of course, knowing that Matt still hasn't found work has been real agony for me because I know how hard he's trying and Chris seems to be totally oblivious to his older brother's struggles. Chris could be bluffing. He does try to be the tough guy, but I just find the bluster hard to handle at times. Well Vinny, I guess that that catches you up on chris. Again, thanks for asking, and for praying. I really appreciate it very much!

Chris's lack of effort says more about his unwillingness to push himself than his lack of ability to achieve. Chris is a scrapper too. He'll find a way to make it somehow. He dabbles with thoughts of going into the army or guard. His latest though is to become a robotics engineer, so who knows. As I had said before and you affirmed in your last post, it's the relationship that's the thing. At least while we are still in his life, we can still have influance If I just push to have him do things my way I'll just lose him. .

We are praying for you little sister and I don't want you worrying about this. I've always had a plan for you and my plan has not changed. Nothing can stop my will for your life. Friends are praying who know how to pray so you let them do the praying in your behalf and do not worry about how much you have to pray. I already hear your voice and I hear your cry. The truth is all you need to know right now. I am the Truth but this you already know. Just try and rest in the Truth and all will be well. Do you understand who I am now? I have spoken and my Word will be obeyed. ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2004 04:43:22 +0000 Reply-To: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> Sender: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> From: Karen Carter <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Housing progress MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="NextPart_Webmail_9m3u9jl4l_17467_1093322602_0" --NextPart_Webmail_9m3u9jl4l_17467_1093322602_0 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I'll take some of those cookies.

I have added a few more since I was around last year. At present I'm trying not to scratch bad eczema on my feet and legs. My back continues to give problems when it feels like it and not when I do. Additionally I have had a total of seven really bad ear infections in the last two and a half years and am just getting over the last, with suggestions from the hospital that they may do a small operation soon to widen the arteries in my ears as the canals are now so very narrow. You can imagine, perhaps, that this causes extra bad pain when infections (started by eczema) take hold. Enough of this! I'm out of here for coffee! More later.

Be blessed. Helen "You crowned Him with glory and honor and put all things under His feet. In putting all things under Him, God left nothing that is not subject to Him." Hebrews 2:7-8 All your afflictions are put under the feet of Jesus! You may think at times how harshly you are dealt with--mourning, it may be, under family bereavements, sorrowing after the loss of your 'household treasures'--a beloved husband, wife, or child. But O that you could bear in mind that all your afflictions, be they what they may, are put under the feet of Jesus, so that, so to speak, not one can crawl from under His feet but by His permission--and, like scolded hounds, they crawl again beneath them at a word of command from His lips! Let us then hold fast this truth, for on it depends so much of our comfort. ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2004 09:12:42 -0400 Reply-To: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> Sender: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> From: Kathy Du Bois <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Back again MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hey Helen, It's good to hear from you.

In reading your note of a wounded spirit", it caused me to think on how that can differ from a wounded heart or emotion. We sometimes get our heart broken in one form or another, or have our feelings tossed on the rocks by others comments or even our own negative or unloving as Pat might say, actions or words towards others which betray our value of God's absolutes and we find we have hurt someone else. As hard as that is to sometimes deal with, a wounded spirit, seems to cut deeper. Yet it seems to heal all the faster. With your recognition of hindering God to heal it, you are nearly there. Just remember to give your self justification. Just as happiness is emotional happenstance compared to joy being a spiritual gift, excuses is emotional irresponsibility, but justification is a spiritual gift. God is in the Justification business. Just if I'd *smile* Just if I'd not sinned. Good to have you back.

God is so good! And I pray the same for you, that your wounded spirit will heal quickly as well. This scripture always ministers to me: Pr 18:14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?

To know the love of God expressed through you and others here in this fellowship is what I have needed. I could think it was a mistake for me to leave for a month, thinking I was waiting on the Lord to heal me in spite of my disobedience to Him, except that I recall the little devotional I posted earlier which reminded me that all of this is under the Feet of Jesus, and no thing has happened to any of us except as He has allowed it for His own greater Glory.

Yes, a wounded spirit does cut deeper, and mine would have been healed by now except for my disobedience in not heeding His instructions to me. I like what you say about justification.

But it's nice to meet you anyway, and I thank you for praying for me. I lay awake most of last night, wondering what I could do to change the circumstances that had caused the wounding, and the more I tried to figure it out, the more the Lord said, No. It is nothing you can do. It is entirely in My Hands, in what I will do.......not you, but Me, said the Lord. Then He sent me a message through Phil at 3:30 this morning, confirming to me the plans God had for me this day. God is so wonderful in the care He provides for those of us who know Him and love Him.

Vinny, how are things with you? Are you feeling a lot better than when we spoke last year? I do trust this is so. Everyone, tell me what's going on with you so that I'm up to date. I'm sure to miss someone if I start but, Brad, how's your church situation? Did you move as you thought you might just before I left? Pat, what's that lovely little home like that you now have and how's Vernon healthwise? Does he need more prayer to bring him fully through to the Lord? Charles, what's news with you? Peggy, I'm sorry to learn of the lump and am lifting you up to Him, but He is stooping down low to meet you and lift you up Himself in His arms and He will carry you through. I am sure of that! One thing I forgot to tell you all was that I've had a problem with my neck for years now and it suddenly got worse about three months ago. I woke up and found my thumb and first finger totally numb. After five or six weeks I thought there was no hope. I couldn't read Braille at all with my reading finger and my left hand is so very slow. Anyway, I had three physio appointments and now am back to normal - praise God! Now I'll stop rambling and let others have a go! I know one who can beat me hands down - even if he babbles rather than rambles! <GRINS> -- Carol [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Vinny Samarco Sent: 24 August 2004 17:50 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Back again Hi Helen, So good to hear from you again.

I did hear one of the guys who was working on the foundation lament for a beer, but it was very hot and tiring work and he didn't get his wish anyway.

But it's nice to meet you anyway, and I thank you for praying for me. I lay awake most of last night, wondering what I could do to change the circumstances that had caused the wounding, and the more I tried to figure it out, the more the Lord said, No. It is nothing you can do. It is entirely in My Hands, in what I will do.......not you, but Me, said the Lord. Then He sent me a message through Phil at 3:30 this morning, confirming to me the plans God had for me this day. God is so wonderful in the care He provides for those of us who know Him and love Him.

My heart goes out to you because God has called me to pray and uphold the afflicted and down-trodden. You can feel as though everyone's treading on you when you apply for a job and don't succeed. Mike, my husband, has been unemployed three times since we married just over eleven years ago. He was told on many occasions that he got second/third, just pipped to the post, but many just wouldn't employ him. It was a test for both of us but God came out clearly, especially when we moved here and Mike then was given a job. OK, it's not wonderful and it's badly paid, which keeps us trusting in Him and thankful for what we have! I'll be praying for you in the coming days. Write me personally (if you'd like) and tell me what jobs you've gone for and what your training has been etc. Let's ask God for a miracle for Karen: "Dear Lord Jesus! You own the cattle on a thousand hills. Karen just wants a very, very tiny part. She needs work and needs money. Lord, please, if you don't supply work will you supply all her need from your riches in Glory! May each time her need is supplied be very special to her! "Thank you Lord, I know you love her and care for her so much more than the sparrows, so I'm looking for you to come through for her. I bless Your name that this is Your chosen part, to be involved in our lives and meeting our needs. My sister is not excluded. Dear Lord, let her know your goodness and faithfulness that it may be a testimony to all she knows, and maybe those she doesn't!

Just thought I'd give you an update on my breast lump. My gynecologist doesn't think it's anything to worry about, and says it feels pretty benign; but just to make sure, she's referring me to a surgeon at the breast clinic, who will either remove or biopsy it or drain it if it's a cyst. She thinks the breast clinic will call me within the next couple days with an appointment, because they usually like to get women in quickly because they know they worry. So while I'm not totally out of the woods yet, it appears to my doctor that it's either a cyst or a fibroadenoma or some other benign lump. Will keep you all posted.

I can agree totally with you! Here's a recent testimony for you. (Sorry to those who know. Just press DEL!) I reached the height of my last ear infection and slumped into bed in considerable pain. My face was swollen badly and I couldn't eat . . .. I knew that tomorrow morning, if nothing had improved, I would have to stay in the hospital. I wasn't too keen on this, I admit, because of the extra stress level this would invariably involve. I just wanted to stay home! I was just too tired to pack that bag. I knew the signs now and knew what would be said if . . .. I asked the Lord: "How can I pack that bag? I'm just too tired!" He said, "Don't pack it; just go to bed!" Did I argue? No, I was too sick and too tired and wanted to trust Him! I had another bad night. In fact it was the worst with this infection . . .. I woke on Saturday morning, feeling just a tiny bit better and my face was down just a little, but it wasn't normal and my ears still hurt badly! I knew I could still end up in hospital . . .. Again I asked the question: "Should I pack the bag, Lord?" He said, "No. You're not staying in hospital. Just go and tell the others." OK! This is where I could have been wrong, a fool, whatever, but I told Mike and my friend Margie, who was taking me to the hospital for more emergency treatment. "I'm not packing the bag as I won't be staying in." I even told the doctor and he believed me! <SMILES> Well, He was faithful to me and I did hear Him, but I too can think of other times where I've been wrong! We do have to exercise ourselves though in order to learn what is right and, anyway, Paul was a fool for Christ so why shouldn't we be! Blessings to all.

He'd really like to get this job because it's less than a mile from campus and the people there are really great. He put on his application that he was willing to do anything but cook. Well, he's willing to learn, but that's about as far as it goes. He's still looking in the mean time, but this is the first bite. I'd be glad to have this job search over. He moves into his dorm this weekend so the time is really running out for him to land something before classes start.

I use to tell people what they would be doing in the future (Prophecy) before I lived for the Lord. but I never ask for money because I knew it was a gift from God and I don't believe in making money off it and also I use to be hesitant in doing it because of being wrong. And a Pastor I knew said. Who cares if your wrong. as long as you are doing what you think God is telling you he will use it for his glory and it will be a blessing to the reciever rather it happens or not.

I use to tell people what they would be doing in the future (Prophecy) before I lived for the Lord. but I never ask for money because I knew it was a gift from God and I don't believe in making money off it and also I use to be hesitant in doing it because of being wrong. And a Pastor I knew said. Who cares if your wrong. as long as you are doing what you think God is telling you he will use it for his glory and it will be a blessing to the reciever rather it happens or not. So if God gives me a word for someone I tell them and pray about it too. <BR><BR> <DIV class=signature id=signature>--<BR>In any kind of circumstance PRAY <BR><BR>Karen Carter 74'</DIV><BR> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">-------------- Original message -------------- <BR><BR>> And the love was received, Phil.

I'm Praising God that on Saturday night, we had the neatest surprise! our door bell rang, I went to answer the door, and I said "Who is it?" The next thing I heard was: "It's Brad Duns from EChurch." I was so surprised! I opened the door and let them in, and I gave them both a big squeeze! Yes, it was the Loving Brad and Brenda Duns! I was so surprised, and so very happy to see them! We had a wonderful visit with them and I took some pictures of them, and Vernon took one of the 3 of us. Brad is just as we all know him! You know he's funny and sweet and loving! Yes, Brenda is a real sweetheart! I love her a bunch! Next time they will stay with us! Vernon likes them a lot, too! I'm Praising God they came to see us! Now for my few prayer requests. Please pray for Vernon's Sister-in-law's, Aunt Mary. She has cancer of the colon and it has spread to her liver and other places. They didn't get it all during the surgery, but they did remove her intestine and they told her she would have 2 years of quality life. Only God knows, and I pray for a complete healing for this loving lady. She is 86 years old. So far, she's doing great, and eating everything. Please pray that if she has chemo and radiation, that she will do okay with that, and have no problems. Please pray that she can stay in the same house that Vernon stayed in, so she'll be close to the hospital for her treatments in Mitchell. Betty, Dean's wife and the rest of Betty's family are very close to her. They have been taking her back and forth to the doctor. My next prayer request is about my Mom's and my relationship. Actually, it could include most of my family. You all know, unfortunately what rejection is like. I feel as though I've been rejected by my Mom and she'll see to it that everyone in my family is on her side. I'm very hurt about what I'm about to tell you. I called her Saturday night, before Brad and Brenda came, and I said the usual "Hi! Loving!" She said hi and then she said. "You know what Pat! I'm really getting tired of this loving stuff. Every Other word is 'loving'." I told her that's not true. I couldn't believe what I was hearing from her. She wasn't drinking, either. She said it in a really crabby voice which is so much like her when she's not drinking. I lashed out, and I told her that Harvey and Joe don't mind it, but Sherilyn, Birdie and her don't like it. I also told her that all my friends love me for who I am and that they love me unconditionally. I told her my friends love me more than my entire family loves me. Of course, she denied it. I started crying and I was really upset. We continued to talk about other things, but I was upset and didn't want to talk to her any more. I ended the conversation and told her that I loved her and hung up. I called her on Sunday afternoon and left a message on her answering machine and I apologized for the things I said. I've not heard from her at all. In other words, she has not acknowledged my apology at all. I'm not going to call her for a long time. I did ask for God's forgiveness for what I said to her. I should have worded it different. I'm so tired of rejection from my family. I actually thought things were getting better, but it's obvious that they only put up with me because they feel they have to. I do all the calling, and they never call me very often. I doubt they will even call me on my birthday. Please pray that I can deal with this rejection and that she doesn't turn the whole family against me. I think she'll probably do that. Thanks much for your prayers and for listening. All your advice is appreciated. I could write a book about this stuff, but I don't think you want to hear it. I love you all so very much. Thanks for always putting up with me and for being my friends.

Your words are from your heart, and from Jesus. They comfort me. You guys, do you know my Mother put me in a Baby home for 5 years because she couldn't deal with me with my blindness. I stayed with all kinds of people when I was little before I was five when they brought me home that summer before I was taken to the Oregon State School for the Blind. I never felt a part of my family and I really still don't. It hurts me. When she said those horrible things to me on Saturday night, I wanted to tell her that I would quit calling people Loving, if she would quit smoking and drinking, but I did not say that to her. My love is from The Lord, and I'll never stop telling people they are loving. I'll never stop calling people loving, either. If I do that, I will be disobeying Jesus. It's because Jesus that this love exists, not because of me. I'm not capable of loving that much, but through Our Lord, Jesus Christ, we can do all things. I love to love people as God wants me to. I won't let anyone take that love away from me. I learned how to love when I was at the School for the Blind. We were loved a whole lot. Yes, we were punished when we did wrong, but just ask Cecily and Paulette, we were also loved, and we were squeezed. So, guys, I'm sending this with all the love in my heart and you are all Loving! Because God made you that way. Am I crazy? Probably yes. I'm crazy for Jesus, and I don't care what anyone thinks.

I'm Praising God that on Saturday night, we had the neatest surprise! = our door bell rang, I went to answer the door, and I said "Who is it?"

I was so surprised! = I opened the door and let them in, and I gave them both a big squeeze! = Yes, it was the Loving Brad and Brenda Duns! I was so surprised, and so = very happy to see them! We had a wonderful visit with them and I took some pictures of them, and Vernon took one of the 3 of us. Brad is just as we all know him! You know he's funny and sweet and = loving! Yes, Brenda is a real sweetheart! I love her a bunch! Next time they = will stay with us! Vernon likes them a lot, too! I'm Praising God they came to see us! Now for my few prayer requests. Please pray for Vernon's Sister-in-law's, Aunt Mary. She has cancer of = the colon and it has spread to her liver and other places. They didn't get = it all during the surgery, but they did remove her intestine and they = told her she would have 2 years of quality life. Only God knows, and I pray for = a complete healing for this loving lady. She is 86 years old. So far, = she's doing great, and eating everything. Please pray that if she has chemo = and radiation, that she will do okay with that, and have no problems. = Please pray that she can stay in the same house that Vernon stayed in, so = she'll be close to the hospital for her treatments in Mitchell. Betty, Dean's = wife and the rest of Betty's family are very close to her. They have been = taking her back and forth to the doctor. My next prayer request is about my Mom's and my relationship. = Actually, it could include most of my family. You all know, unfortunately what rejection is like. I feel as though = I've been rejected by my Mom and she'll see to it that everyone in my = family is on her side. I'm very hurt about what I'm about to tell you. I called her Saturday night, before Brad and Brenda came, and I said = the usual "Hi! Loving!" She said hi and then she said. "You know what Pat! = I'm really getting tired of this loving stuff. Every Other word is = 'loving'." I told her that's not true. I couldn't believe what I was hearing from = her. She wasn't drinking, either. She said it in a really crabby voice = which is so much like her when she's not drinking. I lashed out, and I told her that Harvey and Joe don't mind it, but Sherilyn, Birdie and her don't like it. I also told her that all my = friends love me for who I am and that they love me unconditionally. I told her = my friends love me more than my entire family loves me. Of course, she = denied it. I started crying and I was really upset. We continued to talk about other things, but I was upset and didn't = want to talk to her any more. I ended the conversation and told her that I = loved her and hung up. I called her on Sunday afternoon and left a message on her answering machine and I apologized for the things I said. I've not heard from = her at all. In other words, she has not acknowledged my apology at all. I'm not going to call her for a long time. I did ask for God's forgiveness for what I said to her. I should have worded it different. I'm so tired of rejection from my family. I actually thought things = were getting better, but it's obvious that they only put up with me because = they feel they have to. I do all the calling, and they never call me very = often. I doubt they will even call me on my birthday. Please pray that I can deal with this rejection and that she doesn't = turn the whole family against me. I think she'll probably do that. Thanks much for your prayers and for listening. All your advice is appreciated. I could write a book about this stuff, but I don't think = you want to hear it. I love you all so very much. Thanks for always putting up with me and = for being my friends.

You keep loving, praying and staying strong in the Lord and he will see you through and like I told my friend. They will have to answer to God.

Keep in mind that there are lots of econ classes with other instructors. This instructor has several sections of the class. I had almost decided that since the textbook was not available anywhere that I'd go to this first class and then probably drop. Sure I could scan the book, but lots of graphs and geometry and algebra. Considering that I am math challenged, sounded like the best solution to me after having had a day that was a Monday on a Tuesday; if you know what I mean. So I showed up in class, as did the whole room full of other would-be students. During the class, the instructor made reference to this woman in his class as a student this Semester, having been in his class last Semester. At the end of class, I heard him ask her when her other kornea transplant was scheduled. Naturally my ears became antenna-like. More information forth coming was that she was now fully able to read print. So that was miracle one. Miracle two is that disability services office who specifically told me that this book was not in their catalog had actually recorded it for her and when she tried to return it to them, they refused to accept it back. Therefore, she still had it in her possession. So she will bring the tape recordeded text book to me next class. Miracle 3 is that we could have been in the same class at all. There are lots of Macro Econ classes. This instructor teaches 6 or 7 sections alone. Then there are all those taught by other instructors. Thanks for praying. Best of all, God gets all the glory. What a prayer-answering God we serve. I have no objection if you pray me through the rest of the class. Grin.

He'd really like to get this job because it's less than a mile from campus and the people there are really great. He put on his application that he was willing to do anything but cook. Well, he's willing to learn, but that's about as far as it goes. He's still looking in the mean time, but this is the first bite. I'd be glad to have this job search over. He moves into his dorm this weekend so the time is really running out for him to land something before classes start.

I'm Praising God that on Saturday night, we had the neatest surprise! our door bell rang, I went to answer the door, and I said "Who is it?" The next thing I heard was: "It's Brad Duns from EChurch." I was so surprised! I opened the door and let them in, and I gave them both a big squeeze! Yes, it was the Loving Brad and Brenda Duns! I was so surprised, and so very happy to see them! We had a wonderful visit with them and I took some pictures of them, and Vernon took one of the 3 of us. Brad is just as we all know him! You know he's funny and sweet and loving! Yes, Brenda is a real sweetheart! I love her a bunch! Next time they will stay with us! Vernon likes them a lot, too! I'm Praising God they came to see us! Now for my few prayer requests. Please pray for Vernon's Sister-in-law's, Aunt Mary. She has cancer of the colon and it has spread to her liver and other places. They didn't get it all during the surgery, but they did remove her intestine and they told her she would have 2 years of quality life. Only God knows, and I pray for a complete healing for this loving lady. She is 86 years old. So far, she's doing great, and eating everything. Please pray that if she has chemo and radiation, that she will do okay with that, and have no problems. Please pray that she can stay in the same house that Vernon stayed in, so she'll be close to the hospital for her treatments in Mitchell. Betty, Dean's wife and the rest of Betty's family are very close to her. They have been taking her back and forth to the doctor. My next prayer request is about my Mom's and my relationship. Actually, it could include most of my family. You all know, unfortunately what rejection is like. I feel as though I've been rejected by my Mom and she'll see to it that everyone in my family is on her side. I'm very hurt about what I'm about to tell you. I called her Saturday night, before Brad and Brenda came, and I said the usual "Hi! Loving!" She said hi and then she said. "You know what Pat! I'm really getting tired of this loving stuff. Every Other word is 'loving'." I told her that's not true. I couldn't believe what I was hearing from her. She wasn't drinking, either. She said it in a really crabby voice which is so much like her when she's not drinking. I lashed out, and I told her that Harvey and Joe don't mind it, but Sherilyn, Birdie and her don't like it. I also told her that all my friends love me for who I am and that they love me unconditionally. I told her my friends love me more than my entire family loves me. Of course, she denied it. I started crying and I was really upset. We continued to talk about other things, but I was upset and didn't want to talk to her any more. I ended the conversation and told her that I loved her and hung up. I called her on Sunday afternoon and left a message on her answering machine and I apologized for the things I said. I've not heard from her at all. In other words, she has not acknowledged my apology at all. I'm not going to call her for a long time. I did ask for God's forgiveness for what I said to her. I should have worded it different. I'm so tired of rejection from my family. I actually thought things were getting better, but it's obvious that they only put up with me because they feel they have to. I do all the calling, and they never call me very often. I doubt they will even call me on my birthday. Please pray that I can deal with this rejection and that she doesn't turn the whole family against me. I think she'll probably do that. Thanks much for your prayers and for listening. All your advice is appreciated. I could write a book about this stuff, but I don't think you want to hear it. I love you all so very much. Thanks for always putting up with me and for being my friends. Love and Blessings, Pat Ferguson ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2004 22:42:51 -0700 Reply-To: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> Sender: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> From: Peggy Kern <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Update on Quick Prayer Request from Vicki In-Reply-To: <200408242132.1bZPs75ZU3NZFkl0@cockatoo> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Praise God!

Your words are from your heart, and from Jesus. They comfort me. You guys, do you know my Mother put me in a Baby home for 5 years because she couldn't deal with me with my blindness. I stayed with all kinds of people when I was little before I was five when they brought me home that summer before I was taken to the Oregon State School for the Blind. I never felt a part of my family and I really still don't. It hurts me. When she said those horrible things to me on Saturday night, I wanted to tell her that I would quit calling people Loving, if she would quit smoking and drinking, but I did not say that to her. My love is from The Lord, and I'll never stop telling people they are loving. I'll never stop calling people loving, either. If I do that, I will be disobeying Jesus. It's because Jesus that this love exists, not because of me. I'm not capable of loving that much, but through Our Lord, Jesus Christ, we can do all things. I love to love people as God wants me to. I won't let anyone take that love away from me. I learned how to love when I was at the School for the Blind. We were loved a whole lot. Yes, we were punished when we did wrong, but just ask Cecily and Paulette, we were also loved, and we were squeezed. So, guys, I'm sending this with all the love in my heart and you are all Loving! Because God made you that way. Am I crazy? Probably yes. I'm crazy for Jesus, and I don't care what anyone thinks.

He'd really like to get this job because it's less than a mile from campus and the people there are really great. He put on his application that he was willing to do anything but cook. Well, he's willing to learn, but that's about as far as it goes. He's still looking in the mean time, but this is the first bite. I'd be glad to have this job search over. He moves into his dorm this weekend so the time is really running out for him to land something before classes start.

I've written in another post about your hurts. Pat, I truly know what that rejection was like (ask Phil) but I know too what it's like on the other side - jumping, leaping and praising God and all that! Many of these things we just have to hand over to God because He gives us grace to do it. Other things He just takes Himself. Whatever He does, He then pours in the oil and wine! He then loves us and loves us until we know His healing! Well, that's how it works for me anyway. (Oh, BTW: There is more healing waiting for me too!)

I'm Praising God that on Saturday night, we had the neatest surprise! our door bell rang, I went to answer the door, and I said "Who is it?" The next thing I heard was: "It's Brad Duns from EChurch." I was so surprised! I opened the door and let them in, and I gave them both a big squeeze! Yes, it was the Loving Brad and Brenda Duns! I was so surprised, and so very happy to see them! We had a wonderful visit with them and I took some pictures of them, and Vernon took one of the 3 of us. Brad is just as we all know him! You know he's funny and sweet and loving! Yes, Brenda is a real sweetheart! I love her a bunch! Next time they will stay with us! Vernon likes them a lot, too! I'm Praising God they came to see us! Now for my few prayer requests. Please pray for Vernon's Sister-in-law's, Aunt Mary. She has cancer of the colon and it has spread to her liver and other places. They didn't get it all during the surgery, but they did remove her intestine and they told her she would have 2 years of quality life. Only God knows, and I pray for a complete healing for this loving lady. She is 86 years old. So far, she's doing great, and eating everything. Please pray that if she has chemo and radiation, that she will do okay with that, and have no problems. Please pray that she can stay in the same house that Vernon stayed in, so she'll be close to the hospital for her treatments in Mitchell. Betty, Dean's wife and the rest of Betty's family are very close to her. They have been taking her back and forth to the doctor. My next prayer request is about my Mom's and my relationship. Actually, it could include most of my family. You all know, unfortunately what rejection is like. I feel as though I've been rejected by my Mom and she'll see to it that everyone in my family is on her side. I'm very hurt about what I'm about to tell you. I called her Saturday night, before Brad and Brenda came, and I said the usual "Hi! Loving!" She said hi and then she said. "You know what Pat! I'm really getting tired of this loving stuff. Every Other word is 'loving'." I told her that's not true. I couldn't believe what I was hearing from her. She wasn't drinking, either. She said it in a really crabby voice which is so much like her when she's not drinking. I lashed out, and I told her that Harvey and Joe don't mind it, but Sherilyn, Birdie and her don't like it. I also told her that all my friends love me for who I am and that they love me unconditionally. I told her my friends love me more than my entire family loves me. Of course, she denied it. I started crying and I was really upset. We continued to talk about other things, but I was upset and didn't want to talk to her any more. I ended the conversation and told her that I loved her and hung up. I called her on Sunday afternoon and left a message on her answering machine and I apologized for the things I said. I've not heard from her at all. In other words, she has not acknowledged my apology at all. I'm not going to call her for a long time. I did ask for God's forgiveness for what I said to her. I should have worded it different. I'm so tired of rejection from my family. I actually thought things were getting better, but it's obvious that they only put up with me because they feel they have to. I do all the calling, and they never call me very often. I doubt they will even call me on my birthday. Please pray that I can deal with this rejection and that she doesn't turn the whole family against me. I think she'll probably do that. Thanks much for your prayers and for listening. All your advice is appreciated. I could write a book about this stuff, but I don't think you want to hear it. I love you all so very much. Thanks for always putting up with me and for being my friends. Love and Blessings, Pat Ferguson --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

Keep in mind that there are lots of econ classes with other instructors. This instructor has several sections of the class. I had almost decided that since the textbook was not available anywhere that I'd go to this first class and then probably drop. Sure I could scan the book, but lots of graphs and geometry and algebra. Considering that I am math challenged, sounded like the best solution to me after having had a day that was a Monday on a Tuesday; if you know what I mean. So I showed up in class, as did the whole room full of other would-be students. During the class, the instructor made reference to this woman in his class as a student this Semester, having been in his class last Semester. At the end of class, I heard him ask her when her other kornea transplant was scheduled. Naturally my ears became antenna-like. More information forth coming was that she was now fully able to read print. So that was miracle one. Miracle two is that disability services office who specifically told me that this book was not in their catalog had actually recorded it for her and when she tried to return it to them, they refused to accept it back. Therefore, she still had it in her possession. So she will bring the tape recordeded text book to me next class. Miracle 3 is that we could have been in the same class at all. There are lots of Macro Econ classes. This instructor teaches 6 or 7 sections alone. Then there are all those taught by other instructors. Thanks for praying. Best of all, God gets all the glory. What a prayer-answering God we serve. I have no objection if you pray me through the rest of the class. Grin. Vicki --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.

I learned just recently that one cannot bring about a change in the heart attitude of a loved one, even by loving them. Only God can make the change in them that you think you want to see. I know this may seem like hard counsel, but because you belong to Jesus, He will supply you with what you may need in order to back off from the situations which hurt you so much. I pray you will allow Him to enable you, and to remove the pain you are suffering. In His Love, Helen Earlier, Pat Ferguson wrote: >Dear Helen, and Everyone, > >Oh Loving Helen, you are so sweet!

Was like we lived across the street and popped in for a visit. Regarding your mom and comments. I'm very familiar with how drink can change people, even when they are not immediately under the influence. They have a way of manipulating people around them to accommodate their irrational behavior and thinking caused by the addiction. That and the fact you put Christ before things in your life probably doesn't sit well with her either by conviction through her recognition of that lack in her own belief, or out of her true disbelief and then irritation of your need to rely on Christ. It can be difficult to have people say "unloving" things, and all one can do is to change how we see such things. As Helen said, we cannot change other people. But we can change, with Christ, our view on such occurrences. One way is to perhaps look at your residual need for her approval and love from your childhood rejection you felt. Squaring this up with Christ's help will cause those fiery darts of words and hurt to roll off with less impact. They may still hit you but they will not puncture your heart but rather shielded . Part of that is done through God's wisdom and insight on what is really causing the darts to be thrown in the first place. More than likely it is a malnutritioned self-esteem on mom's part, or her feeling poorly as to not knowing how to care for a blind child and now feeling guilty after seeing you turned out just fine, and perhaps your lovings, remind her that she failed in some way? As well, remember Christ said he didn't come to join people up, but rather separate them. Of course not as a destructive intent but rather to gather them up to himself, and separate them from the world, and by default there will be those who choose to stay in the world and therefore are separated, which is what Jesus was referring to. Seeing the situation for what it really is instead of taking it personally as if you have done something wrong, as well continuing to pray for your mom seems to be a biblical and godly response to at least start with. First stop the arrows from penetrating your heart by putting up God's shield, and then go after the source of the darts through prayer and witness.

I guess my plans for going to Oregon next year will change slightly. I will not be staying with my Mom for the majority of my time in Portland, unless things take a drastic turn for the better. I have lots of loving friends in Portland and Salem that I can stay with. I've had to do this before, and I made it just fine, so I will with-drawl myself from my family for now. I will continue to pray for all of them. They are not Christians and they are not saved. Maybe God is telling me to concentrate on Vernon's salvation. I told Vernon this morning how loving and supportative you all have been to me, and he thought that was great. I'm not down or depressed about it, but I feel sad for my family, because they do not know what love they are missing from Jesus. I want to thank you all so very much for the love and prayers and loving support you all have shown me. I love you all a whole bunch, and want to squeeze you all. lol. Many lovings and squeezings for you all. Thanks much for always being there for me.

So, tonight will be my first night sleeping with the equipment. Fortunately, this unit is brand new and is much quieter than the hospital's machine. Additionally, this one has a water vapor chamber, which makes the air breathed during the night, moist instead of dry. Fortunately, my insurance is paying for the whole thing which apparently costs about 1500 dollars, if not more, so thus far, we have not had to pay for either of the sleep studies nor the equipment. Part of what I had to be taught today was how to clean everything, too. So that meant I had to learn how to take everything apart and put it all back together. The machine has been preprogrammed for me to begin at a lower pressure level and build to a full strength level of pressure in 45 minutes. At which time, I will hopefully be sound a sleep and be dreaming peaceful exotic dreams. You know, exotic as in Africa or the Caribbean or the south Pacific islands? At least I think that's what I mean. However, if I do have any other unusual dreams, as I did while in the hospital which I have already described, I will be certain to file my nocturnal report here since I know everyone will be very interested in whatever I have for a dream. I guess, if it comes right down to it, my wife can go no mail for a day or two, until such reporting has subsided.

Now, you have to remember two things: 1) Don't give the oxygen to the dogs; and 2) when you dream, remember your wife's name is Vivienne! <SMILE> Now, don't hit me, I'm fragile and out quick! -- Carol [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Phil Scovell Sent: 25 August 2004 20:37 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Update on sleep apnea I received my equipment today and a very nice lady delivered it and explained every detail. So, tonight will be my first night sleeping with the equipment. Fortunately, this unit is brand new and is much quieter than the hospital's machine. Additionally, this one has a water vapor chamber, which makes the air breathed during the night, moist instead of dry. Fortunately, my insurance is paying for the whole thing which apparently costs about 1500 dollars, if not more, so thus far, we have not had to pay for either of the sleep studies nor the equipment. Part of what I had to be taught today was how to clean everything, too. So that meant I had to learn how to take everything apart and put it all back together. The machine has been preprogrammed for me to begin at a lower pressure level and build to a full strength level of pressure in 45 minutes. At which time, I will hopefully be sound a sleep and be dreaming peaceful exotic dreams. You know, exotic as in Africa or the Caribbean or the south Pacific islands? At least I think that's what I mean. However, if I do have any other unusual dreams, as I did while in the hospital which I have already described, I will be certain to file my nocturnal report here since I know everyone will be very interested in whatever I have for a dream. I guess, if it comes right down to it, my wife can go no mail for a day or two, until such reporting has subsided. Phil. --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.

It sounds like we both have the same machine. I didn't get a water chamber, though, and have never used one. Hugs and blessings and prayers for a restful, if exotic, sleep! Littlekat ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Scovell" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Wednesday, August 25, 2004 3:37 PM Subject: Update on sleep apnea I received my equipment today and a very nice lady delivered it and explained every detail. So, tonight will be my first night sleeping with the equipment. Fortunately, this unit is brand new and is much quieter than the hospital's machine. Additionally, this one has a water vapor chamber, which makes the air breathed during the night, moist instead of dry. Fortunately, my insurance is paying for the whole thing which apparently costs about 1500 dollars, if not more, so thus far, we have not had to pay for either of the sleep studies nor the equipment. Part of what I had to be taught today was how to clean everything, too. So that meant I had to learn how to take everything apart and put it all back together. The machine has been preprogrammed for me to begin at a lower pressure level and build to a full strength level of pressure in 45 minutes. At which time, I will hopefully be sound a sleep and be dreaming peaceful exotic dreams. You know, exotic as in Africa or the Caribbean or the south Pacific islands? At least I think that's what I mean. However, if I do have any other unusual dreams, as I did while in the hospital which I have already described, I will be certain to file my nocturnal report here since I know everyone will be very interested in whatever I have for a dream. I guess, if it comes right down to it, my wife can go no mail for a day or two, until such reporting has subsided.

I had to get up then because I drank a can of pop before going to bed so you know what that means. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been surprised if I had gone 7 hours straight. In fact, I was so wide awake at 5:30, it took me a good 30 minutes, or more, to go back to sleep. I was tempted to stay up because I felt so good. Unfortunately, I can't remember dreaming. I could make one up, however, for those interested in my dreams. It also took a little adjusting during the night but it was much better than in the hospital and the dream machine is also very quiet. So, now that I am not afraid of it, I am sure I will get better use out of it. With the larger mask over my mouth and nose, and the hose running from it out the front and over to my night stand, I rather feel like I am flying a jet fighter so that's what I pretend I am doing while going to sleep. I've always wanted to be a fighter pilot anyhow. I have a sleep tape I made once that sounds like a jet flying fast and high. Maybe I should get that out and listen to it at night. I have also figured out that I can use the hose, since it is six feet long, to rope round Sandy to keep her closer to me at night. It works well for that, too.

Most summer weekends I spent Saturdays at a friend's home just outside of Des Moines and we spent most of the day either fishing in the creek or on the back of a horse. Additionally, my father was a country preacher. He often drove 50 and 60 miles into farming communities on Sundays and ministered in churches too small to afford a full time pastor. His family, of course, generally went along and since these were mostly farming communities, there were lots of horses to ride. I didn't care if there was a saddle or I rode bareback; I just loved being on a horse. In light of all of this horseback riding, I never considered myself a cowboy. I especially hated wearing hats and never did wear them. When I moved to Colorado, my first job was standing on my feet all day. By evening, I could hardly walk. My employer kept telling me, "Buy cowboy boots." I had no interest in cowboy boots whatsoever and I told him so. He said, "So, then, let your feet hurt." One day, in total agony, I said to my boss, "Would you please go with me after work and help me pick out boots? I know nothing about them." He did so. I wore my new boots for a couple of days and then went back to shoes. I couldn't even walk down a flight of stairs with my boots on without tripping and falling half way down the steps. I was never going to get used to wearing boots and I knew it. Two weeks later, I was complaining to my boss one day about how terrible my feet hurt. He told me it was my own fault for not wearing the cowboy boots. I explained I couldn't even walk in them and didn't think I could get used to them. He said, "Look. Put the boots on and wear them until you get over the psychological hang up you have about wearing them. Don't give up." I took his advice simply due to the pain my feet were suffering. Two weeks went by and I was 100 percent sold on wearing cowboy boots. It is all I have worn for well over thirty years now. Recently, I was in need of some new clothes. I had been putting off buying new cowboy boots for over three years because boots aren't cheap even if they do last many years beyond any type of shoes. So, I was going to buy some new clothes and new boots and my mind was made up. The day before my purchase, I was thinking about going out and buying the clothes. I hate shopping and especially for clothes but it had to be done. As I considered what I needed and what I was going to buy and how much I would spend on boots, I heard a small voice say, "Buy a hat." I immediately said, "What? I hate all hats," and waited for the Holy Spirit to continue. He said nothing. I still waited. He still didn't continue. Unfortunately, I knew He was referring to a cowboy hat. Finally I said, "Lord, why do you want me to buy a hat?" I was almost in tears at the thought of wearing a stupid cowboy hat. As a blind person, hats always bothered my ability to hear well omnidirectionally and I just didn't like hats. I didn't even like them, nor did I wear them, when I could see. Finally, as I waited, the Lord said, "Because you are different now." "Hold the phone there, Lord! What in the world does that have to do with buying, and wearing I might add, a dumb cowboy hat? I'm not even a cowboy. I don't own a horse. The last time I rode a horse, my bottom hurt for a week. I'm not a cowboy! I couldn't toss a rope if my life depended upon it." All these things could have easily come to mind and I was tempted to let them come tumbling out in rebuttal but due to prior experience with such arguments with God, I refrained. Why? Because I am learning to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit. I knew exactly what He meant when He said, "Because you are different now." The hat isn't important; my obedience to His Word is. In other words, it was a test to see if I would obey. You should have seen my youngest son and my wife when I said, after picking out the black cowboy boots I wanted, "Now I want to go look at the hats." They nearly left me standing alone in the store. My wife even said more than once, "Why are you buying a cowboy hat?" I kept saying the same thing; "I don't know." That wasn't true, of course, because I knew exactly why I was buying a hundred dollar cowboy hat; because Jesus told me to. Admitting that publicly, however, was a little difficult. So now, every time I leave my house, I am wearing a nice black cowboy hat. People laugh and say, "I can't believe what I am seeing." I just smile and climb in their car just like I have always worn a cowboy hat and boots. No, I tell very few people why I wear a cowboy hat because, like you, they wouldn't believe me if I told them. So I just wear my hat and every time I do, it puts a smile on my face, joy in my heart, and praise to my God for caring about me so much, He even tells me what to wear. It is like a rancher friend of mind has always said, "God makes a pretty good cowboy." I'm beginning to believe, God might also wear a cowboy hat. Go ahead and laugh all you want but wait until it happens to you some day. Then it will be my turn to chuckle.

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Kathy, I like those 1 piece bath tubs with the surround for the shower. We had to put a 2 piece in up here in our bathroom up stairs, because once the walls are built and finished, one can't get a one piece outfit in most bathrooms. lol Not only that, but it would have been interesting carying a one piece up stairs. lol Did they put the plaster or morter on the floor first? They do that so it doesn't move when you get in it to take a bath or shower. lol They either pour plaster or use morter, and put plastic on top and then set the tub in it so it forms to the tub, then they remove the tub and the plastic so it hardens. After it has hardened, they set the tub back on it. Neither VErnon or Dean did it right, and the plaster did not harden. Next time, we'll use morter instead of plaster. I would really love to have that party! lol Couldn't you see us finishing your house! lol Well, Vernon and Brad would be with us, so you know it would be done right if the contracters weren't there. lol Do you know they put a toilet up in our attic? I'mnot talking about a bathroom, but an old toilet, because they were too lazy to get rid of it. Just like they did everything else they threw in the bacement. We're still halling out junk. Today Vernon is playing electrition. lol He's wiring plug-ins and putting in the wiring for the attic fan upstairs. I pray they finish your house soon!

The drain goes down to a joist. I don't know if he'll cut a hole through the joist or make one of the carpenders come and do it, but the plans missed by about three inches. At this point, I'm starting to think that Brad and Vernon would do it better and faster.

Believe me, she is being treated, well as best I can with trying to work and maintain house chores along with my son. Ice cream n the sofa while watching DVD's, ice packs on demand, drawing baths, wheelies to the restroom, supper, not much, but supper nonetheless, etc. But vacation is over... lol, time to start working out that leg a bit.

Some people say that it leaves a nasty taste in your mouth afterwards, but I haven't really noticed that. It's a real big deal around here. They have a Moxie festival and everything. I guess that more than 30,000 people attended this summer. Moxie is like so many of the culturally unique things here in Maine. Either you love it or you hate it, I guess. The same can be said for their red hotdogs and whoopy pies. Kathy ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!

Anyway, we came across this board book, you know the kind that they make for little kids with the heavy cardboard pages so the kid can't ruin them as easily? Anyway, this book was a cookbook for men and it was called, "A Man, A Can, and a Microwave." Isn't that just a stitch?

The manager told him that he likes to see a person actually on the job before he makes a final decision so he asked Matt to come back Monday and get a feel for the place. Matt is very encouraged by this. On the financial end of things, the financial aid office hasn't completed all the tabulations yet, but Matt will be receiving some aid. They've assured him of that. If he doesn't get any answers by Tuesday then we will get involved to add weight to the situation. We're trying to keep our hands off as much as possible though.He's looking forwrd to moving into the dorm tomorrow.

We weren't even sure where he would be staying at the time. As it turns out, he ended up in an apartment on campus and there was a microwave, but, we forgot to give him a can opener so he would have still been left in the lurch.

How we are becoming a microchip population. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit The Future Is Now How we are becoming a micro-chipped population by Mika Belle, Boise Weekly (Idaho) Aug 11, 2004 Imagine no more grocery lines. Imagine no more lost children. Imagine your television, cell phone or laptop warning you the milk in your fridge is old. Now imagine most of these things are happening right now. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology collects information by using tiny microchip "tags" which are embedded "tagged" into products, animals and people. The chips are then tracked by "readers" at a distance, possibly through clothing, purses or wallets. Some large retailers plan to replace barcodes with RFID for supply and payment purposes, but it can also identify who bought an individual item, when and where, and how it was paid for. Most importantly, RFID can track products after they have left the store, meaning it can track you. Privacy advocates are concerned. Welcome to the future. It began yesterday. In June 2003, Wal-Mart announced its Electronic Product Code (EPC) initiative, ordering its top 100 suppliers to start using RFID tags on cases and pallets headed for the Dallas, Texas, area. The suppliers were given a deadline of January 2005. "It will become a requirement," said Linda Dillman, Wal-Mart's CIO. One year later, Dillman echoed the same deadline, but to Wal-Mart's top 300 suppliers. "Over the next 16 months, we also plan to significantly increase the number of Wal-Mart stores and Sam's Club locations where customers can benefit from this revolutionary technology," she said. Although Dillman has repeatedly declined to say how much the new technology is costing the company, she has admitted it is a "top line" item. RFID is such a priority for Wal-Mart, that testing has begun at their Dallas-metro warehouses. Cases and pallets of dozens of products use microchips when delivered to a distribution center, where readers installed at dock doors automatically notify staff and suppliers that a specific shipment has arrived. Although the testing began at the case and pallet level, some products use their casing for its package, and are therefore already "tagged." Wal-Mart states three products -- two Hewlett-Packard Photosmart photo printers and an HP ScanJet scanner -- may feature tags on the outer packaging. "The industry plan is to put an RFID tag on every product on Earth to identify and locate them at any time, anywhere," said Katherine Albrecht, founder and director of CASPIAN (Consumers Against Supermarket Privacy Invasion and Numbering). "Wal-Mart is taking the first steps to creating a society where everything could be surveilled at all times." Wal-Mart and HP aren't alone. Several companies, including Target, Cola-Cola, Proctor & Gamble (P&G) and Gillette, have publicly stated they want RFID to revolutionize retail sales by helping them better supply their products to customers. Headquartered in Boise, Albertsons, Inc. announced in March it expects its top 100 suppliers to use RFID at the case and pallet level by April 2005. Albertsons operates about 2,300 stores under half a dozen names in 31 states. "RFID is a cutting-edge tool that will give us a win-win advantage with both customers and suppliers," said Gabe Gabriel, an executive vice president. According to "RFID and Consumers: Understanding Their Mindset," a Cap Gemini Ernst & Young study, "RFID allows companies to gain a competitive advantage. ... Reaching this future state, however, will require gaining the trust of consumers before they find RFID tags in their shopping carts." But consumers have already started trusting retailers with their privacy. Dozens of retailers already use Smart Cards/Preferred Cards to assess what individuals are buying. According to a recent AC Nielson Frequent Shopping Survey, more than 70 percent of shoppers participate in two or more preferred-card programs. But microchipped products could allow these companies to know what their customers are doing after they leave their store, in real time, in almost every aspect of life. The surveillance scenario is possible when the tags are not "killed" or deactivated after products are purchased. The retail tags are passive, but can be scanned an average of 15 to 20 feet by readers that various companies want to embed in doorways and floors at banks, shops, airports, libraries and homes. Active tags can transmit signals as far as you'd like. Last November The Chicago-Sun Times revealed that Wal-Mart conducted a secret RFID trial in Oklahoma. The article reported customers bought P&G's Lipfinity brand lipstick with RFID tracking devices embedded in the packaging. Although Wal-Mart previously denied any consumer-level RFID testing in the United States, representatives declined to comment on the incident. Business Week Online wrote about a protest at the German Metro "Future-store" last winter, after RFID tags were discovered in loyalty cards, shopping carts, packages of Kraft's Philadelphia cream cheese, P&G's Pantene shampoo and Gillette razors. The protestors complained they were never told about the chips in the loyalty cards. Metro spokesman Albrecht von Truchsess said the chips were only put in the cards to prevent youths from renting adult films. "We're not the CIA," he said. CASPIAN's Web site ( www.spychips.com ) reported an incident where Gillette used "spy shelves" at a store in England. Whenever a shopper picked up a packet of razor blades from a shelf, a hidden camera secretly took a photo of the shopper's face. The Web site links to Gillette Vice President Richard Cantrell discussing the technology, called Auto-Id, created by EPCglobal, whose major clients include Bechtel (widely criticized for its contract-bidding procedures in Afghanistan and Iraq). Several retailers, led by P&G, oppose RFID legislation that would require them to deactivate tags after checkout. Some concerned citizens believe only using cash will protect their privacy, but paper currency may not be the last bastion for long. There is a myth on the Internet that microwaving a $20 bill will make it burn due to an implanted RFID chip. The Boise Weekly conducted its own experiment and there was no such burning. However, the U.S. Treasury Department has hinted that our currency will eventually have RFID chips implanted in it. Across the pond, the European Union appears to be planning to implant chips in Euros by 2005. This means your "former" cash, and anything you bought with it, could be traced to you. Police investigators could use any crime-scene object to interrogate the last person involved with the object's last transaction. Because of RFID's potential accuracy for identification, some organizations believe it can promote good security, by any means necessary. Last month, Mexican Attorney General Rafael Macedo de la Concha announced he and 160 members of his staff were implanted with RFID chips, which allow them access to secure areas of his headquarters. "It's only for access, for security," he said. More Mexican government officials may soon get tagged, including key members of the military, police and staff members of President Vicente Fox. "Promoting implanted RFID devices as a security measure is downright 'loco, '" responded Albrecht. "Advertising you've got a chip in your arm that opens important doors is an invitation to kidnapping and mutilation." She described a Mexican kidnapping gang nicknamed "el chip," for reportedly demanding its victims point out the locations of their implanted chips. But Americans may not have to travel to Mexico to get mutilated for their microchips. In fact, they may only need to step out of their house. Introducing the ChipMobile, a tranquil blue and white recreational vehicle tirelessly traveling to a city near you to microchip your entire family. The RV is owned by VeriChip, which is owned by Applied Digital, who also owns Digital Angel. The three companies combine services to ensure all personal and corporate needs for microchips are covered. The Digital Angel consists of a device similar to a wristwatch and a belt-worn module. It is marketed for concerned citizens to locate Alzheimer's patients, the mentally challenged or anybody else wearing the device. It can locate them anywhere from any P.C. This service costs $9.95 per month. VeriChip's Web site states, "We are promoting VeriChip as a universal means of identification. We expect it to be used in a variety of applications including financial and transportation, security, residential and commercial." VeriChip was just rewarded a $600,000 contract to start implanting 200,000 dogs in Portugal, under a government initiative to control rabies. Chief Executive Kevin McGrath estimated RFID helped return 72,000 animals in the United States last year. Never mind lost dogs, RFID locates lost children. The Great America amusement park in Santa Clara, California, has the Star Watch program, where kids can wear wristbands that broadcast signals to antennas scattered throughout the park. A central computer tracks the children and sends their location to seven interactive kiosks placed around the park. In Osaka, Japan, school authorities have decided to test RFID in one primary school. The tags will be put onto kids' schoolbags, nametags or clothing, in conjunction with readers at the school gates and other "key locations." Denmark started a similar scheme in June. There are endless creative uses for RFID. British-based Innovasion developed a reader that supports Near Field Communication (NFC), a new standard that will allow electronic devices to download music or theater tickets from "smart" posters. The reader, called Io, is smaller than a dime, making it the smallest yet created. "NFC has all the right building blocks for many applications," said Innovasion's Marc Borrett. He said the first products could be deployed in 12 to 18 months, when users could use NFC phones to swap music and more. A recent demonstration showed a businessperson using such a phone to check in at an airport, collect a digital key at their hotel and pay their bill electronically upon check out. "This isn't a pie-in-the-sky scenario," Borrett said. When home appliances and related products become chipped and connected to computers, anything is possible. Your fridge could alert your television the milk has passed its expiration date (would you like to order more?). Insurance companies could require "smart" medicine cabinets to help ensure you are properly taking the right drugs. Steve David, chief information officer for P&G, has said prescription drug counterfeiting costs the pharmaceutical industry $500 billion worldwide, and backshop thefts costs companies another $50 billion per year. The pharmaceutical industry estimates that between 2 and 7 percent of all drugs sold globally are counterfeit. The Food and Drug Administration has asked manufacturers to consider RFID technology to help combat counterfeit drugs. The list of current RFID research and development grows: the San Francisco library wants to ease document inventory and checkout; hospitals use it to match babies, medications and allergies; airlines are matching luggage; police departments debate tagging officers so that only they may fire modified firearms. But to be sure, RFID's greatest controversy surrounds its proliferation among retailers. Barry Steinhardt, an American Civil Liberties Union lawyer, warned a RFID conference last April that companies could profile their customers and share that information with the government, which would violate their privacy policies. Last February, the Utah House of Representatives passed a bill mandating clear labeling of RFID-chipped products. At the same time, the California Senate considered stronger legislation, arguing retailers should need consumers' permission to use RFID. In response, the Grocery Manufacturers of America (representing Coca-Cola, P&G, Gillette and others) is trying to draft its own legislation before more stringent laws are passed. Albrecht intends to keep an eye on all the retailers, she is prepared to organize boycotts. "When the world's largest retailer (Wal-Mart) adopts a technology with chilling societal implications, and does so irresponsibly, we should all be concerned," she said.

At least I think you are new to it. I believe you can find folks on here who have dealt successfully with anxiety and fear of death and etc. Fear as you may know is a tool of the enemy. God's word which is the absolute truth in life and 100% grade A truth and to be counted upon and used for teaching, instruction and guidance, tells us that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but that of peace, sound mind, and love. So recognizing that fear in itself is a tool and it's contents, although may have some merit for concern or things which may need dealing with, fear is proven to be of no use to any situation and only causes those situations to become worse. Striving to be closer to God is a great sign and you ought take comfort in that itself, and know that you are on the right track, and hope is right there for you to grasp at anytime, no matter what you are going through in life. I know that by the time I'm done writing this note, you will already have had prayer by someone on this list, on your behalf for the things you've mentioned. Welcome and know that if death is the worst thing we fear, as Christians it only means we'll be with God. And, as Christians with hearts pointed towards God and having had accepted Christ's sacrifice, we have nothing to fear of God at all.

How we are becoming a microchip population. In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Vinnie, I knew Walmart and a different grocer than listed here were doing RFID testing in Texas when I was there. It sure seems like an excerpt from the "Left Behind" series doesn't it when reading it? Without sounding like a gloom doomer, because I not only do not subscribe to that type of thing, but despise it as it offers no solution most of the time, I will say when reading the bit about the Mexican authorities being implanted and etc. that scripture concerning the mark is so close at hand. Although this seems to be a new thing to many, we have to realize that chip experimentation has been going on for a long time now and these little insurgences into society are a gradual desensitization to a point where one day it will be used regularly and then mandated to be used by all. Which I personally believe is the mark talked about in scripture when referring to not being able to buy or sell without the mark of the beast, or whatever. It also causes me to think what will Christians do at such a time, or in preparation to such a time, and if we knew that time was coming, what would we do to not partake. Sure makes one think doesn't it.

Now what does Sandy think about that hose? But seriously, I am glad you and Mr. CPAP made friends. I love mine and I feel better and have fewer nightmares now. Before I got my machine I used to dream that I was being suffocated by balloons. That was so terrifying! Now I can't remember my dreams unless I've had a bad night and that doesn't happen all that often. Littlekat ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Scovell" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2004 3:31 PM Subject: The Dream Machine I slept for five and a half hours straight last night for the first time in a very long time. I had to get up then because I drank a can of pop before going to bed so you know what that means. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been surprised if I had gone 7 hours straight. In fact, I was so wide awake at 5:30, it took me a good 30 minutes, or more, to go back to sleep. I was tempted to stay up because I felt so good. Unfortunately, I can't remember dreaming. I could make one up, however, for those interested in my dreams. It also took a little adjusting during the night but it was much better than in the hospital and the dream machine is also very quiet. So, now that I am not afraid of it, I am sure I will get better use out of it. With the larger mask over my mouth and nose, and the hose running from it out the front and over to my night stand, I rather feel like I am flying a jet fighter so that's what I pretend I am doing while going to sleep. I've always wanted to be a fighter pilot anyhow. I have a sleep tape I made once that sounds like a jet flying fast and high. Maybe I should get that out and listen to it at night. I have also figured out that I can use the hose, since it is six feet long, to rope round Sandy to keep her closer to me at night. It works well for that, too.

I love it with these folks. We chat and talk and then get serious and pray and share and then lighten up again . . .. Tammy, you're not facing anything right now that hasn't been faced by men and women down the centuries. Your fears are very real and certainly need to be addressed (prayed through), but you have a great God Who doesn't let us down. I know, because in the darkest place, amidst my fears, I found Him there. It's important that we find Him where we are because it's right there, where we are, that He wants us to find Him and reach out (somehow, anyhow we can) to let Him meet our deepest of needs. Talking of the fear of death, that's the very thing Satan would have us to fear, the moment when we pass from this life to life eternal. It's hardly surprising that he should try to remove the joy of that thought from our minds. However, I think it's true that it's not usually "death" itself that we fear but the actual "dying", or (perhaps in some cases) our standing before the Lord. In either case, He will be true and there for us. Hang in there, lean hard on Him and He will bring you through! I know! He brought me through! -- Carol [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of tamby-wolf Sent: 29 August 2004 03:31 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Hi everyone I just want to say thank you to the people who responded to what I said earlier.

In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Brad, Thanks for sharing your views on this and, yeah, well, it could well be "the mark of the beast". What makes you think that this (microchipping) really is the mark? I certainly think there are a number of changes going on right now which point to the end. We're going to have to trust the Lord in those days as never before because, without the mark, there will be no buying and selling for us Christians; God through many and various means will have to provide for us! This means we must not think that we can be providing for ourselves. (Well, that's how I see it presently anyway.) -- Carol [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of BD Sent: 28 August 2004 23:41 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: The Future is Now. How we are becoming a microchip population. Vinnie, I knew Walmart and a different grocer than listed here were doing RFID testing in Texas when I was there. It sure seems like an excerpt from the "Left Behind" series doesn't it when reading it? Without sounding like a gloom doomer, because I not only do not subscribe to that type of thing, but despise it as it offers no solution most of the time, I will say when reading the bit about the Mexican authorities being implanted and etc. that scripture concerning the mark is so close at hand. Although this seems to be a new thing to many, we have to realize that chip experimentation has been going on for a long time now and these little insurgences into society are a gradual desensitization to a point where one day it will be used regularly and then mandated to be used by all. Which I personally believe is the mark talked about in scripture when referring to not being able to buy or sell without the mark of the beast, or whatever. It also causes me to think what will Christians do at such a time, or in preparation to such a time, and if we knew that time was coming, what would we do to not partake. Sure makes one think doesn't it. Brad --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

How we are becoming a microchip population. In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Carol, You asked why I thought the chip was the mark. Ever since I heard of the Digital Angel a half a dozen or better years ago or so, and all it could do I've not just thought, but have what I believe to be a prompting of the Holy Spirit that this will be it. I have no super formula for thinking this, just basic scripture regarding the last days as you've mentioned as well, and a very real prompting I feel from God. For sometime my wife and I have been watching old reruns via DVD of a TV show here in the states called Little House on the Prairie. The actual place in which the real people on which the TV show was based upon took place here in Wisconsin only about 45 mins from here as well as a couple towns west of here , one of which loving Pat lives. My wife and I are both drawn to this show as it is a bit of a relief from the day to day hub-bub of today. In looking back at how people lived only a 100 years or so and looking at the enroads and changes that have taken place, especially after the implementation of computers it is staggering. We have technology that will read these notes on your computer right through the walls of your house from the street via magnetic frequency sensors, of course the RFID in which the article was written, and so much more we likely do not even know. With the reliance of credit cards and other electronic money in this day and the power of companies like Walmart and etc. I believe it could happen within my lifetime yet in which it be mandatory to have a chip implant to buy or sell. You can see this by Walmart's demanding that their suppliers have RFID or they will not buy the products from them. I see similar electronic money in the vending industry I'm in where in Japan they use Electronic Wallets, cell phones with electronic money in them where you wave the phone at a vending machine and make your selection. This chip technology could well be imposed upon the general public. I'm fourty years old now, I plan to live at least another of or 50 years, and when you look back at what things were like 40 or 50 years ago and see the advancements, impositions and etc. it is plain to me this mark can be upon us within the next handful of decades. Look at how quickly the security measures have changed since 911. Much can be accomplished if they wish it to, and all it takes is a good reason to mandate it in the name of safer kids, less crime, more efficient disbursement of food in a growing world or perhaps with the continuation and likely never ending war on terrorism, a better way to monitor that situation. Of course you and I know terrorist will find a way around it and leave the imposition of a mark upon those who are innocent. I agree things will become much more reliant upon god's intervention to allow his people to survive. I think of David when Saul was planning to pin him to the wall for the attention he got for killing more enemies. David found himself in a survival mode yet relied on God. I believe that is what will occur when the mark is imposed on people. Of course it will not brought into place by mandating it right off. It will be brought in as we have seen over the past years, little blips of it here and there to get people warmed up to the idea it is coming. Then a slight use of it such as we seen in this article, or as here in the USA, you cannot buy a dog from a breeder or from a pound without that pup having a chip in it's ear. After people have been warmed up to it, they will create an incentive for people to get it, after an incentive, it will be made much harder and more of an inconvenience for anyone to get along without it, and finally then they will mandate it. I am not speaking prophetically as if sent from God, I just know human nature from living long enough in this world, and believe God has given me some ability to read the writing on the wall as it were. I was pondering on this whole idea earlier and I heard or felt a prompting to say that this mark, will not be like it was with Y2K with many people, it will not be a big emergency scare, nor a big after thought of what to do with all the extra stuff bought in preparation. It is not something temporary in which we can rely on computers to fix the problem as in Y2K although it was the computers that were meant to be the problem, but rather this will be a way of life and will continually be harder to get along as time goes on. Just as anyone, I have no idea when any of the end times things will take place, and we need be careful to not falsely proclaim the wars we hear of are the rumors of war talked about in scripture as wars have taken place since time began. There are so many things that can be made to fit Scripture's description of latter days, and we are no doubt in the latter days as was Jesus when he was here, but we need be watchers as he has said, because he will come seemingly very fast to those who have not been paying attention. I am not an alarmist, I am not one given to paranoia, or to get excited about things at their first appearance as most things in the world are temporary or will adjust or people make adjustments to and so anxiety is of no use. But this chip I feel in my heart, is the mark which Scripture's talks. The size of these chips have gone down over the years I believe and will be able to be injected. Just think, even going to the doctor for a shot of meds could risk getting the mark without even knowing it. None of our governments are past doing so without it's citizens being aware. Things definitely will get interesting when that day comes upon people. What then will we , as Christians do and ought we prepare for such a day if we see it coming? And what preparatins might we do to protect our families and fellow Christians.

Of course, it's always better when people can do what you and June did, to go up on the web site and send the email, and it's also easier.

His daughter, of course, is becoming very fearful and so are her parents. The only advice I could give George tonight is what God the Father gave Israel in Deuteronomy 28 where He said, I place before you this day, life or death. Choose life that you may live. I told George, keep choosing life. Please stop for a moment and try and imagine how heavy this burden has become for the parents after 23 years. Frankly, I simply cannot imagine it myself. The church they were in? No one ever knew when Jennifer was, or wasn't, in the hospital. Advice they did get, free advice I might add, was the old stand by, Well, keep your faith up, brother. My question is, where is their faith in their behalf for these hurting parents?

I am encouraged though that God can heal them and set him on the right path. I am praying to that end. Do what you have to do and do it because you love your son and your Lord. God knows your frustration and your agner at the devil for his work in Chris' life. God knows, too, how to change it all to His glory. Praise Him! Hang in there, Kathy, a better day is coming!

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Thanks Ned, What is so frustrating is that the police don't feel that there is much that they can do either. Greg and I left the house for about four hours, just to relieve the tention and when we got back Chris was filled with glea and said something like, "just as i figured, the police can't do anything either as long as you can't prove that I touched you." What has this overly tolerant society done to our children? Kathy ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!

We have so restricted the freedoms of the lawful to protect the rights of the lawless. Something wrong with this picture! Is it any wonder that our country is so off track when the leaders have stopped leading and the teachers have stopping properly teaching. Parents who wish to follow the teachings of the Lord are hindered by the laws of the land. What a shame.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Kathy, It most certainly is frustrating when our own children begin using our own government against us. As with my daughter, however, she finally went so far, she nearly ended up in prison. Last weekend, a former friend stopped by my son's house. They went to Christian school together. He was 280 pounds when he was just 15 years old. He has been in a ton of trouble since high school and while in high school, he and a friend broke into a family's home and beat their son nearly to death with baseball bats. My daughter saw him standing out in the yard alone so she went to witness to him. She began by telling him how she no longer smoked cigarettes since he was smoking at that moment. Within less than two minutes, he was offering her a line of cocaine. She turned and walked away from him. She passed her first test and all by herself. Chris will cross over the fine line eventually and he won't find dealing with the police as enjoyable and as exciting as he does now. Until then, we just keep praying.

I am so glad that I have all of you to turn to when this stuff happens. This evening, I just couldn't stand it any more. Chris was in the kitchen and I went out to him and I asked if I could have a hug. At first he resisted, but then, he yielded and gave me a big hug and kiss and appologized. He admitted that he's stressed out with school starting and drivers Ed. and his job. I just listened and didn't lecture or anything. I pray that he will go back to Eric because his way of handling stress is really inappropriate and he needs to learn some techniques for handling it better. Plus, there is this whole legal thing!! The police were a joke today. How frustrating! By the way, remember the court date that we had for last March? Well, we found out more about what happened to that today. We started int calling around on our own, after the police walked out on us. We called our local probation officer and found out that she still had our name from last March, but that the charges had been dropped. Really? Not by us!! We had been told to wait for the paper work to catch up with the case so we trusted in the system. Oh, foolish us! We didn't drop the case, the officer did, evidently. Now, Greg has called that officer back to find out why, but, of course, he hasn't returned the call yet. I think that the policeman today was almost laughing at us. Chris had put a fist on my chin and then said that he would rather beat up Greg, rather than a blind woman, so he called Greg on the phone and tried to have him walk into an ambush. I mannaged to get out and met Greg in the driveway and told him not to go in. He had started banging things around while I was still in the house and it had sounded as if he had smashed the digital camera so I was glad to get out. We called the police on the cell phone in the driveway and the police said that that wasn't enough to charge Chris with criminal intent. The policeman said that he would have to be able to prove that Chris was trying to kill us or himself before he could do anything. We have nowhere to send him and no one will take him. Oh, I'm so sick of Maine!! If that doesn't prove that Chris has all the rights under the law, I don't know what does. Oh sure, we can take stuff away, and if he doesn't like it and trashes the house, we truthfully face at least a fifty fifty chance that the courts will side with him that we're just too controling. You really have to be a creative parent today to survive. Oh well, enough venting for one note. God bless, everybody and thanks for the prayers. I just pray that Chris will go see Eric tomorrow, but, it's not looking too good for our team at this point.

I will never stop telling people they are loving. I will never stop calling people that I love, Loving. No matter what anyone says. If God tells me to stop, then I will. He has told me to continue to always love and to give the love He so freely gives us. Now for my prayer request. Sunday night, I had just gotten into bed, and I realized I needed to call my brother Harvey to wish him a Happy Birthday. This was on the 29th of August. I told Vernon this, and I got up and went down stairs to my BNS and called the number. At first, I got the answering machine, and It was interrupted by his "signifficant Other" Debbie. I talked to her, and asked her if I could talk to Harvey. She told me he wasn't there. Then she told me that he was in "finishing school." I didn't quite understand that, so I inquired as to what she ment. She then told me he was in jail. She made me promise her that I would not tell Mom that she told me. I guess Mom doesn't want anyone in the family except Joe to know where Harvey is. I don't understand why she always protecks Harvey. She use to do this with Ron, also. I promissed Debbie that I would not say anything to Mom about what she told me. We talked for over 2 hours. It all boils down to the fact that Harvey has had another D.W.I. again. I don't know how many of them he has had. I also found out from Debbie that Mom has had some health issues lately. She's having problems breathing. I told Debbie that I've heard Mom wheese before and I had mentioned it to my older sister, Sherilyn. Debbie informed me that Mom was scared one night, when she couldn't hardly breathe. She was ready to call an ambulance but she didn't. I guess she went to the doctor, and she has since quit smoking. They exrayed her lungs and nothing shows up and they are clear. Debbie told me that Mom probably has C.O.P.D. Debbie is a nurse. This was also something Mom doesn't want anyone in the family to know about. I assured Debbie that I would not say anything about it to her. Please pray that when I call Mom that she is doing much better, and please pray we don't have any problems. I will not call her loving, and I will not tell her she is Loving, unless God tells me to. I do love her a bunch, and I am really worried about her. I'm also concerned about what she has told the family about our little spat. Please pray that everything is okay. Please pray for Harvey. He was suppose to get out, but they are afraide he will not show up at the trial. Please pray that my family gets closer and that they come to know The Lord. Thanks for your love and prayers.

He is frightened of something but the driver's ed and the schooling and the job are only triggers of what he is really frightened about. He likely doesn't even know himself, at this point, the source of his fear. Acting out by frightening others, however, is an excellent way of testing the waters, sort of speak, to see just how far you can go. Plus, it takes the place of a drug. That is, it stimulates the one acting out their fear by scaring the crap out of everybody else. I am far from a good example. Out of three children, two being boys, I was never what you call brave but I was never afraid. Even though my youngest son is larger than I am and taller and was taking Karate, I made it perfectly clear that in a face to face fight, I would most likely lose and furthermore, when it was over, I'd probably die of a heart attack due to my poor condition. But, I said, you will know you were in a fight even when it is over and I lose and die. At this point, Chris likely wants help but his pride blocks his inner most desire to do right. He was playing the game of intimidation to see what his blind mother and his father would do. It will escalate because he got a good taste of it now and it worked. I was fortunate to know some big guys and were good friends. If one of my kids would have tried trashing the house, for example, I wouldn't have called the police because what happened to you in Maine would have happened here in Denver, too. It's the same all over. Instead, I would have called a couple of three buddies to come on the run to assist me. Shoot a blind mother with one good baseball bat can do a lot of damage if she starts swinging. I'm sort of kidding there of course. Well, not really. I also would have been proud, as a father, to go to jail. My daughter threatened to put me in jail more than once. I bodily forced her out of the house in front of her own children one night. Then I had to sit down with two little boys and explain what happened and why. You don't think that tore my heart out to hear those little boys crying because I had to make their mother leave. She was too dangerous to everyone around her. Praise God, that's over and done with now. I am not telling you nor Greg what to do. I will tell you what I did when Gretchen was 15 years old. I kicked her out of the house. She was crawling out her bedroom windows at night and running around and getting arrested anyway so I kicked her out. Then I did exactly what I told her I would do. I went down to the police station and turned her in as a run away so she would be on the computers. It worked. She ran for three months scared spitless because she thought she would get jailed. One thing you have which you can play is in fact your own blindness. Kicking Chris out and then filling a complaint related to your own fears might work. Especially if you got a lawyer's opinion about it. Still a super difficult decision to make. In a manner of speaking Kathy, there is no right or wrong in these situations. There is sin and holiness, of course, and that's what we are really talking about. That we can do something about and we are so keep us informed and stop trying to carry the load by yourself when you have friends who can help. Phil. ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2004 19:42:28 -0600 Reply-To: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> Sender: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> From: Vicki and The Rors <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Housing progress MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit The good thing is, Kathy, you're not having to worry about the house since the contractor is giving extra attention to it.

He says holding back from breaking into songs from the sound of music. Thanks for the welcome everyone, it is great to meet you all. I am looking forward to getting to know you. I have had a bit of a rough ride with my old Christian friends over the past few months so I think it will do me good to meet some fresh faces. I am kind of busy at the moment. Why? I hear you ask. Two weeks ago the Lord told me to decorate my house! A huge undertaking, and at the time I only had 3 pounds to spare if that. Next miracle, my lodger came up with 8 pounds worth of 1p and 2p coins for the decorating kitty. As it turned out my landlord let me off a months rent to do this work (I am a wee bit behind ahem) and he also gave me 25 pounds for paint..... you see the Lord does know what he is doing. Anyhow Woolworths (A shop in the uk) had some cheap paint going at 2 pounds a pot... so I have done one room. I ruined the carpet, it was horrible anyway, so I need to pray in a newish one. The bathroom will be finished tonight at about 3am if I work hard. I am doing this on my own so it is difficult especially to get the motivation. I have run my house as an open house for a number of years so there are a few local teenagers that drop in every now and then but some of them have the attention span of the proverbial goldfish. Now for an introduction.... well I am 34, single, I live near Birmingham and my house and the flat next door is kind of a Christian community where the Lord brings people to live to receive his healing. I also get to know many local alcoholic youths. Several of which live next door in a unique kind of youthful squalor. I counted 20 empty jack daniel's bottles when I fixed their boiler yesterday. They had been for weeks without hot water, too afraid to call the landlord due to the state of their house. I do the same kind of prayer healing ministry as Phil does. I used to try and help lots of my friends all around the UK, but now the Lord has told me to focus on helping one person at a time. Those I help need very intense ministry and a fresh start... it is very challenging, but I get to see the Lord do amazing things. A teenager turned up on my doorstep today... we did a book exchange and they lent me a book called "The Kid" by Kevin Lewis, his own story of severe abuse and neglect. I do not think it is a Christian book, but I was surprised to discover that he lived about 7 miles from where I was brought up. It is folks like "The Kid", Kevin that I am called to help. The Lord is with me, it was his idea! I have a couple of supportive friends and a couple of prophetic types who are keeping me in order, but that is about it. Sometimes it feels pretty lonely out here. So here I am at your service, I am basically a full time Christian missionary to my community and those the Lord sends my way. Living by faith is hand to mouth at the moment just like you read about in all those exciting Christian books. So on Friday a local restaurant sent us their old food that they were going to throw away because of the bank holiday weekend, is that cool or what! I know in England it is considered rude to ask if you are in need, but I have to say if you are offering, I could really use your help too. The Lord has so much for us to do! It is kind of a character building phase for me in my Christian walk. Much of this involves getting stressed at God and various people then repenting and eventually laying it before God to sort out my heart. The refiners fire process also seems to require relentless painting till the early hours of the morning, to which writing this email is a welcome distraction. I think this is the most unusual introduction I have ever given, but I think it kind of lets you know where I am at and some of what excites me as a disciple of Jesus. When you reply to me do let me know what excites you. your friend in Christ Keith Hodges p.s. it does not look like the bathroom is going to be finished after all, it is 2.30am already. ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2004 18:53:30 -0700 Reply-To: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> Sender: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> From: Peggy Kern <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: somebody in the Scovell Household has a B-Day In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask] et> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed I too send happy birthday greetings to you, Sandy.

Jennifer has pneumonia and her fever was 103 when she first went in last night. Something spiritually powerful has changed in George which I have also been learning the hard way and that is concerning the Lordship of Christ. I knew I had a little pride. After all, a little pride is a good thing, right? Sure it is because that's called self esteem by some Christians. God still calls it pride but what does that matter. I honestly never thought pride played any role in my life as a Christian until a year and a half ago when the Lord proved to me I had a great deal of pride which kept Him from being the Lord of my life. George, fortunately, is learning this now, too. So where do we go from here? We choose life and not death as I have said before on here. We speak things that are not as though they were just like God did as the Creator of all things. But wait just a minute, I hear someone saying. If we speak it, it isn't God speaking it. That's where you missed it, and me, too. If we are speaking God's Eternal Words, it is the same as if God were saying it Himself. When the demons suddenly realize you truly believe what was just said, they will flea. That is resisting the devil. What if it doesn't work the first time? You only plan on doing it once? But to answer your question, what if it doesn't work? Call a friend and use Matthew 18:19 and through agreement in prayer, it shall be done of our Father which is in Heaven. Well, at least that's what Jesus says. What do you say? Phil. Phil. ========================================================================= Date: Tue, 31 Aug 2004 23:39:59 -0500 Reply-To: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> Sender: Echurch-USA The Electronic Church <[log in to unmask]> From: Vicki <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Keith Introduction Thanks for the introduction Keith.
