In Argentina...Mata is served..Mata is a tea that is served in a gord that is decorated..Coffee is not served..The first one who takes a sip of the tea, it is very bitter and it is passed around to those who are at the table and the bitterness kind of fades..but it is a time of fellowship as all drink from one straw which is a metal decorative straw..Mata is drank all day long...made in the morning and it last all day..Isn't it nice that people can sit together and fellowship drinking from the same cup..It is like the christian to fellowship and drink from the same cup...Fellowship is so important to a christian...To fellowship with the Lord and with His people..To be encouraged...and even if a christian is homebound...go and visit..it is not good for any christian to be alone...so many who are new christians fall away by lack of fellowship...and there are those who think they can serve the Lord at home and find fault in churches...so many claim they have been hurt through a church..still..it will never be wise to forsake the fellowship and in these days..it is a source of strength in the body of Christ...I felt an urge to encourage those who are away from the fellowship to return..To have the right type of fellowship....
1)  Fellowship with the Lord through His word and through prayer..
2)  Fellowship with brothers and sisters that you can encourage through the word and prayer...and be encouraged

We are living in times that will not get better and those before us who lived in times like these, stood together and died together for the cause of Christ...

Good morning all! It is another beautiful day in the Lord. Everyday is a great time for fellowship with our brothers and sisters and a great time to witness to the lost.

Good Morning to all. Have a bit of information to share as we sit around with our coffee in fellowship. Global Warming has made it to your local pharmacy. I went in today to pick up my inhaler medication that normal costs me $7.00. The cost was so high for the medication I ask the girl if she was sure it was the right one. They then explained to me that my inhaler had to be changed to an ozone-friendly propellant called HFA Pro-Air. Thus the cost was $33.68. So thanks to Al Gore, I will have a harder time controlling my asthma due to the cost. I will be praying for those other people who have low-incomes and need the use of this medication for more severe cases then mine in trying to deal with the increased cost.

I figured that this sort of thing was coming. My wife, daughter and grand-daughter all have nebulizers. They haven't gotten a refill in two months so we haven't seen this. Thanks for the heads up.

Before long this movement will be preventing any but the rich from having anything but public transportation, lighting and heating and medical care. It is ridiculous especially when it is all based on false science.

Hello Dreamweaver,

Brother, I thank everyone for the prayers. Things have been better with mother than anyone could have expected. They moved her to rehab last night, and that means there isn't any big concerns left except her learning to use that new knee. She's already up and walking, so everything looks great.

Doctors can do some amazing things with knee replacement these days, but I also know that the Great Physician had a lot to do with the wonderful results. I know that GOD still has plans for her, and it makes me very happy that mother will be able to continue the volunteer work that she loves so much. Every day is a day of thanksgiving, but this is a time of special thanks to our loving Heavenly Father.

Love In Christ,
Tom

Amen Sister Def!

I simply know that GOD loves to hear our prayers, and GOD does as HE pleases in Heaven and on earth. HIS Will is always the best for us, even though we might not always understand it. Regardless, all of GOD'S children are blessed beyond measure. The lost might laugh and poke fun of this statement, but their thoughts are limited to worldly views. They might point at certain Christians and ask why they are poor or something else related to the material things of this world. AND, they won't understand when we say this world isn't our home, and our wealth is in Spiritual Riches beyond human imagination.

Sister, you mentioned that you put up with these problems for 5 years. This brings up another big point about prayer - WAIT UPON THE LORD. GOD does things in HIS time, HIS way, and in HIS Will. There are always excellent reasons why GOD doesn't answer all of our prayers or answer them immediately. In terms of examples, I think about teaching us and making us stronger in CHRIST immediately. The lost won't understand this statement either. A time of trial or trouble for a Christian can be a very positive event to help mature and strengthen the individual Christian. We won't know all of GOD'S reasons, but it is sufficient to know that GOD'S Will be done - and it will be.

Sister, it doesn't take long for Christians to find out that GOD does indeed answer prayer. It's just important for us to know that it will be in HIS time, HIS way, and HIS will.

Love In Christ,
Tom
