Hey all! May God bless each of you in this coming new year. Especially you Bee's Knee's. You have kind of won my heart and what and why that is, leaves me without words! I pray for you often and I know you have messaged me but for some reason I can never find them or, any others for that matter. I don't know. Please take care of yourself and your little ones...I care. The Lord has put my heart close to yours (I'm talking friends in Christ here, please do not take this as I am another sicko looking for a pretty face, I'm not....I am sincere) I wish the best for you and when the time comes I am able to pay forward what the Lord has promised me...you will be the first, one of the first, to know. I am proud to be part of this group that remains "intact" on this site! You guys, and gals, and families are all great and, you know who each of you are! I am so sorry for your struggles and hardships. My prayer is that each and everyone of you will find peace and strength in Christ Jesus. Give your struggles up to God but stand firm...as a warrior would before a charge into battle. Stand firm and use the word of God in prayer and scripture as your weapon, as your sword. In the Bible, look it up, "God's Armor". The only defensive weapon we have is the sword which represents or is symbolic of "God's Word". There's nothing more powerful out there when it comes to fighting evil my friends! We're all super hero's!! If you accept Christ as your Saviour and begin your Journey with God and, do it right....no evil will touch you! It can't! You have to hold up your end of the bargain though! Live clean with God always front and center, above all! Sometimes, we need help. The bottle, the pain killers, the straw, turnikit, needle, the other women, the other man, porn, food. It is Satan's way of keeping a strong hold on you and keeping you away from that "true" commitment to God! Put it down, put it away and walk to wherever you have to go to get the help you need and accept it with open arms! That's God!! Cleanse your soul! It hurts and is next to impossible to do but....once you do?! You will never "need" anything again! Fight? For some....none at all. For others....the fight of your life! That is where prayer comes in! That's where the word comes in! (No I'm not a Pastor) I'm just a guy who has fought battles...a lot of them! You know what? I won every ------- one of them!! Praise God! I have one more I'm fighting right now, finances. Money. Mortgage payments. Foreclosure. Money? You think that would be the easiest? Maybe it is for some but, for some reason for me? That picture of me is like days ago. I just turned 50 and I'm going on 25, Praise God! 6' 3", 230 pounds and stronger and fit as they come! I can work as hard as a man can work and I also have my mind and common sense! Why the hell can't I make it work? I'm standing my ground, prayer, scripture, Bible study, Worship and Praise, Music....I walk by faith, not by sight! I'll get there...because I have the Holy Spirit in me to the point I shake, weep, pray, pray in tongue, play my drums and keep Jesus by my side! I will make it and SO WILL YOU! God bless and make that first step! I know you can do it! - I did! If not for the grace of God...there go I! Johnny boy! (my mom use to always call me that- gone 2 years now, I miss her so).

Hello Im asing if anymore may he able to help with my waTer will its two months nehind and is Bing cut of monda Please if furor is anyone Ho cqn help i Save three kids ice calles churches they are have but thwu said than and marry christmas

 in response to nomortears...   Words can help sometimes. Glad mine did. Wished I could do more. You know, I lost my mom at 89 in 2009, My dad at 91 the next year on their 70th wedding anniversary 2 weeks after putting my German Shepherd down and I just lost my 38 year old Nephew to a Heroin overdose after being sober for a year. He just moved into a condo, got a job and started school that Saturday. We found him on the Bathroom floor that Thursday and figured he died Monday or Tuesday. My wife and I both just lost our jobs and our beautiful 17 year old home we built is in forclosure cuz I owe the Bank like 4 payments. I've been here 17 years, never borrowed on it and have over 200,000.00 equity in it. They will not work with me. That's every scent I have!But I think of Christ Jesus and I smile, I thank God because I truly believe he's gonna get me out of this. Along with my wife of 25 years and 2 kids! We'll do it....and I will give God all the Glory. I looked at the picture of you two and what you posted and just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas! Prayer...on your knees, on fire, hands in the air prayer! My cell company sucked the last $300.00 I had out of our debit card last night as they "forgot" about our payment plan. They will not reverse it and, already have the money. Nice huh? So here I sit thinking of what I can do to put some gifts under the tree as my wife works her behind off! I think I will go pray.....what can go wrong huh? Praise God! Thanks man! I appreciate it. I have a drum set..my baby! I have been trying to sell but its a bad time of year in a bad economy. You look like you might appreciate a cool drumset and I like showing it off. I just got done cleaning it off. Ive added 3 more cymbals to it...when I had money and it has two floor toms you cannot see. It would kill me to sell it, I would take a huge loss and never find one like it again. It's like a 1978 kit in "mint" condition. The band "Great White" used it for a little while before I bought it! Cool huh. I always said when I was little I wanted to play drums for Jesus all my life. That's still my goal!~ Someday

thank you for posting this it has inspired me to keep my head up ... I am trying so hard to find Christmas help for my children and your words have made me realize i can not give up thank you again

 in response to Buck Creek...   amen you bring the word of the lord to those who are down god bless u made me smile thanks

My name is John by the way....Buck Creek is (was) is my business. Power washing, painting, staining, deck refinishing, hardwood floor refinishing, log home restoration, etc. Buck is a cool name though! Hey maybe I'll give Hollywood a try?! Buck that!

 in response to hardheaded...   Amen Brother! woo! work is good! You look like you can get er done too! Love to be able to get dirty with ya! No job here yet. I'm goin' nuts. I'm strong...I got it! It's so good to hear even just some good news....just "some" you know? I will keep you in my prayers and I have a business deal that may (may) hit fairly big here soon, this week, chances are slim but, prayer could push her over the edge and it would be huge! I would be helping many on this site...put it that way! First priority is to give all the Glory to God, then contact the proper people but...she's gotta break for me first. Just a prayer for my new career and the proper tools is all I'm looking for to get this Ministry, this aid mission up and running! There are a select few on this site that have my attention and your at the top of the list. God bless brother! Hang in there and give it everything you've got! Awesome!

 in response to hardheaded...   Congrats on getting a job.
God is good.

 in response to buckcreek...   HI buck its me again its been a busy day if you seen my post you know that,I want to thank you and every one who prayed for me .Ijust recived a phone call ,,,I got the job start tomorrow .,ill be sticking around here and praying for all of you too,,,thanking god through christ

 in response to waterworks...   stay sober brother. It's been a few days so I don't know where you stand but right now....stand! If your still sober...give it all to God. You did it but, through him...100% of the glory. If you stumbled....we all do. Brush yourself off buddy...you've got this one! This is a fight you will not let the Devil win. He wants you bad my friend. I don't think so. I pray for you now. We ask God to rebuke him and get him out and away from you and your life! Right now! Amen! You are who you are and have been and will continue to be....praise the Lord!

 in response to Buck Creek...   Yeahhhhhhhh! My arms are raised. And you said another boring day? I think not.

God Bless you

Amen! Lets go people!

 in response to Buck Creek...   Count me in.
I raise 'both' my hands.
I am VERY blessed. Unbelieveable so.
This has not always been the case. I used to be broke,busted 7 disgusted. People would say they couldn't make 'ends meet'. I used to tell them at least your 'ends' can see each other!
I was so broke, their was not enough crazy glue in the world to put me back together again.
I have known much grief in life, harrassment, sickness, death,divorce, joblessness,sorrow, rejection, pain & the list goes on and on.........
But, I am a witness that God can & will deliver us. He can & will raise us up.
But, we have to do it own His terms. The just shall live by faith. That does not mean just having faith alone. We must act on our faith by doing the 'works' to back it up.
Many times the perils we suffer are do to our own sins.
If we suffer for righteousness there is a reward. But, if we suffer as a result of some sin we did,then we have to just 'suffer' the consequences. Jesus died for our sins once.This was to get us reunited with the Father & for us to get out of sin.
If we sin & suffer a consequence for it,then its not man's job to pay the 'price' for our sins. God will forgive us, but we still have to pay the price for the mess we made when we sin.
I'm tired of 'mess'. I'm tired of paying the consequence for my sin. Its just better for me to be obedient in the first place.
Yes,sin is fun. Its very pleasurable. Its just the 'price' is too high.
Besides, the devil lied. I can just as much fun or more with the Lord. I discovered God is loving. He has a sense of humor. He is a great provider. He will take the stress away. He gives 'His kids' good things. He blesses the good & the bad. However, 'His kids' get special gifts.
He is the greatest gift to us.
We need no other gift but Him.

 in response to Buck Creek...   Hi John, just thought i'd stop by and say "i'm raising my hands". =) I'm giving my life to the only one who makes the moon reflect the sun, every starry night, that was His design...

Well, another boring day with not one thing accomplished for the most part. I really have to get it into gear here people! Who believes in God? Raise your hands. Now, the rest of you....start! Claim Jesus Christ as your King and Saviour and you do believe that he died on the Cross for your sins. Just say it but, mean it. Get down on your knee...if you can. Come now! Lets do this! This sight is 100 plus strong!~ That is a pretty powerful prayer team! God wants us! What do you have to lose?! Faith...you have to be strong! You have to believe in yourself! Faith!! Listen to Contemporary Christian Music...it's awesome! I'm a drummer, here's a pic of my set. I'm a rocker-still am...sort of. The other music is phenominal! The talent is off the chart! Open up your Bible and read the Gospel according to John (thats my name) Don't start at the beggining...start where you want to! Where Jesus points you. Hey! Join a Bible study group...you don't have to say a darn thing! You will, eventually! Get sober.....get clean-easy? Hardest most painful thing you'll ever do! Physically and mentally. You have to do it! You have to!! For you! Your family!! The Holy Spirit!!! You'll be high all the time! It's amazing...this "God" thing! It is the way out of all this crap! The meak (us) shall inherit the earth! The weak will be made stronger! (thats us) I'm not a Pastor....I just turned 50, I feel 21-I'm going to be a Pastor! I have big goals! Got some problems right now and I have to clear them up before I light the after burners! When I do....look out!~ I'll grab you and I will not let you go! You will give yourself to our Messiah! The one! Let's all say prayers...whenever. Just let God know you are in agreement with everyone else's prayers on Aidlist. He gets it! Start now! Right now...don't quit! Accept his love with grace! Accept his grace with love! He wants you to be good, and to be o.k. and to have everything! Watch and see what happens, how your life transforms. Sing, play music, dance, rejoice in his name! I've had so many bad, terrible things happen to me and my family in the last several years it's nuts. I do not for one second question or blame God...I give him grace. I love him! Always.

 in response to buck creek...   hey buck its good to read what you wrote ,,lost my job after getting sober been clean 9 months ,not giving up 6 weeks now no job well i guess ikeep filling out apps until i become homeless have faith

 in response to MeeMee56...   Thanks for the response. Yes....Christmas. We have always been able to do the "gift" thing although my first and foremost deal with Christmas since I've been a child is it is the day we recognize the birth of Jesus Christ. I have also instilled that in my children. God tells us over and over to teach our children. This year, the gifts will not happen. I have come to be able to just accept things for what they are. I will have to come up with another plan of some sorts. My children are older so to old for the "toys for tots" and so on but what a wonderful program. We use to give to that, we use to volunteer at the food pantry too, now we go there! Actually, I think everyone should end up in this situation at some point in their life....it humbles one's self. It lets you know what it is like to go without and makes you appreciate what it is you had before! People just have to come together, as on this site. It warms my heart because I see it has started and, I have seen that through finding this site. "Love"....what an amazing emotion. People should try it!

Thats right it is our faith. When we worry we arent trusting God cause the opposite of faith is worry and I learned along time ago to put it in Gods hands Battle isnt mine anyway it is his. Not that it really matters but what religion are you? So many say there is no hell ther eis no heaven.. sadly one day they will find out and it isnt Gods will that anyone goes to hell he made a way to heaven for us and it is up to us what path we choose. I am so glad about 32 yrs ago I choose the stright and narrow path that leads to heaven.I am like you if I had money I would help everyone. I am more of a giver than reciever. When things were better for us 3 yrs in a row we made Christmas for familys. It breaks my heart for a child to wake to no Christmas and mine may be doing that this yr. They know that Christmas is more about the birth of Christ but it is hard on the little ones when they hear there friends getting gifts. Breeaks my heart

 in response to MeeMee56...   The Lord responds to our faith, not our wants and desires. The meek shall inherit the earth. They shall inherit the Kingdom of God. I just posted a little "goodnight prayer". I hope it reaches. I pray it reaches! We will get by, we will make it! Thank you a hundred times for your concern. I'm as sane and centered as they come maam. I'm one of the good ones! So many people and so much neglect by our "super powers"! There is a hell. I hope they all sleep well tonight. If I made $35,000,000.00 a year. I would make sure that $34,000,000.00 went to those who are in need! We would all be o.k. .... everyone! I don't know you but, I love you! Sleep well and have a wonderul Saturday. God's got you

 in response to buck creek...   I am glad your ok any more you just dont know. My husband said he heard on the news about a women who went to try to get foodstamps so she could feed her family. I guess they refused her cause they said she got ALITTLE to much in child support. I cant remember if she had a hostage or she wouldnt let anyone come or go I forget how he said it was.. Part of my problem is my memory and it is not from demential or altimiers but anyway she killed her kids and herself right there. Its so sad cause the people who need help cant and then the ones who dont get it. I had a CASEWORKER tell me when I lost my SSI cause my husband started getting SSD and I guess you cant collect both although he only gets $1050 a month she told me to say my husband left he didnt have to go no where but then I could get my SSI back. I said No If I cant get it the right way I dont want it. But how many has she told that is doing it ..... thats why many cant get help! I am glad you are trusting. God he is the only one we can count on in these times. He said he would provide all our NEEDS. So many go to him with a I want list but he didnt say anything about wants...I wouldnt know what to do without him
