Wilburton

We had another good service this morning. There were visitors this morning. I like that. It's always good to see family and friends coming in to visit. They were also in the service. That's even better. When I started quoting scripture, paper and pen came out and they were taking notes. We are Strengthening The Saved - Saving The Lost.

This morning I asked the question - Why did Jesus go? Jesus said, "I must go so the Holy Spirit can come." Today we talked about the Holy Spirit and how important He is to us today. It was awesome. He is doing a mighty work in nursing homes.

Sallisaw

It was good to be back in Sallisaw. Everywhere we go we see the love of God in action. There are so many people who just need someone who cares. Someone who is willing to look past everything you can see and smell in a nursing home and love on the people. I simply love what God has called me to do. We (me and our Life Senders) will be His hands and His voice in the nursing homes.

Even on Monday morning it's important to know people need the Lord; broken hip, child passed away, bad family relationships, and the story goes on. Jesus came to mend wounded lives, to set the captives free. This morning it seemed fit to talk about why Jesus came. Then, I prayed for everyone in the room. We have come to share the good news of Jesus. We have come to set the captives free.

Eufaula

As we began to sing this morning. It was fun to watch some of the residents come alive in Christ. One gentlemen, who had a fairly weak voice, was just preaching up a storm. We stopped singing a little bit just to let him get it out. He was a blessing. He finished up by yelling, "I need Him now more than ever before!" Isn't that true? We should be pressing in to God all the time. Now, it's on to Holdenville.

On the road: Strengthening The Saved - Saving The Lost

Tahlequah

This afternoon a woman came into the meeting I new had had a stroke within the last couple of months. I sensed the need to minister on healing. So, I turned to 1 Peter 2:24. The end of that verse says, "By who's strips ye were healed." There were many residents in the room and we all needed that message but I was really focused on her. We closed with, "Standing On The Promises Of God." Then, I prayed with everyone in the room. We left that room much stronger, in our faith, than when we came in. God's Word is true and we are keeping the switch of faith turned on.

Muskogee

I want to thank the staff at Brentwood for bringing residents into the service this morning. Many would not be able to come on their own. You are a blessing. This morning we looked at the thought, "God Is My Source For Everything Good." Here is a radical statement, "God helps some people more than others." That's because He moves based on our faith and some people believe more than others. Today we looked at the promises of God and shared what it takes for those promises to be active in our lives. We could have been their all days. I remember the mandate the Lord gave me for the nursing homes: "Strengthening The Saved - Saving The Lost." That phrase is definitely growing on the inside of me. I'm finding that that is what I am doing no matter where I minister. God is so good!

Fort Gibson

I guess sometimes you just gotta sing! We had several residents who came in the service this afternoon and asked to sing. I mean they wanted to sing the whole time. So we did! It was wonderful. It reminded me of the old Sunday night singings we had at our church growing up. Fritz leading the singing and Eileen playing the piano. (Only you Des Moines, Ia people know what I'm talking about)

Warner

The Warner nursing home is a very special place. This facility can care for certain physical issues that many other facilities can not. As a result of that I have residents in my service, at this facility, that I do not have at other facilities. There were probably a dozen or so geri chairs with residents that could not respond to me in a normal way. I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to pray with them and for them. It is wonderful to see the smiles come to their faces when your not sure they even know that your there. We are blessed to be a blessing. Bless someone today!

Stilwell

Sometimes I wonder about traveling as far as I travel. But then, when I enter the nursing home and begin to minister I remember why I do. There are very few who do what we do and yet it is very necessary. Even the workers came to me this afternoon asking for prayer. "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel."
