Where I want to live...

Thinking about life... So many plans, soooo many dreams... Some come to pass and some seem to slip through my fingers... People come and people go... Buuuuuuut no matter where life may take me, there is a certain place that I always want to live.

I want to live my life beneath the cross of Jesus. I want to sit there at his feet, beneath the cross, where he suffered an died for me. I don't want to be above him, behind or beside him...

I want to be beneath, where there is a constant flowing of his blood washing over me! Beneath cross, thats where the fountain of his blood goes. I want that continual purification of his blood washing over my heart, causing me to repent when I am wrong. Beneath the cross is in direct line of His blood tricking down!

Beneath the cross, yes that's where I want to live! It's not a life of glamour, fortune or fame... But there is safety beneath the cross! There is protection beneath the cross. There is love beneath the cross!!! All of my choices, will be made beneath the cross! My life will revolve beneath the cross. This is where I want to stay. My life will be constructed beneath the cross...This is where I choose to live...I'll always stay, living my life in the stream of Jesus blood!!!

"One thing have I desired of theLord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lordall the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple." ( psalm 27:4)

The Votaws!!!

He has preached all over the US, China, Taiwan, the Philipines, Vietnam and many more Asian countries. He preaches in underground churches in communism countries. He converted a man on death row in prison to Christ and 3 hours before that man died he baptized him in Jesus name. He prayed the first man in Vietnam to kill and americn soldier through to the Holy Ghost and Baptized him in Jesus name. He has converted trinitartin preachers all over to the Oneness doctrine...BUT ABOVE all else...I thank God that I TOO am ONE OF THOSE souls he reached out too...he gave 7 years of his life to New York City!!! I thank God that he answered the call!!! It wasn't until his 6th & final year as pastor there, that our family came into church...we were there for 9 months before we came to AZ and then right after that the Votaws left NYC for the mission fields of Asia...I THANK God that someone had a burden for NYC!!!

Sis. Kathy!!!

This is the woman that invited my Momma to a Pentecostal church!!! She told me that she was actually new in the church herself and that she would see my mom in the front yard of our house playing with us kids and she just wanted so badly for my mom to have what she had just recieved herself. It may have been just one person that she was witnessing to at that time, but that one person has had an affect on her own five children and now its her Grandchildren that are still recieving the blessing of Sis. Kathy's witness. 25 years ago, it wasn't just my mom...I may have only been two at the time, but it was ME she was winning too! I thank God she wasn't afraid to be a witness and that she didn't give up on my mom. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39) When you decide to live for God it doesn't just stop with you!
