Greetings, LPM Family in the name of our wonderful Lord & Savior
Jesus Christ.
Well, let me wish you all a very Happy New Year, even though
it is already the 19th of the month. I have been extremely busy with
year end paperwork, which is why this newsletter is a bit late this
month. You should have all received your statements of giving for
2009 by now. I so appreciate all the help over the last year. In
2009 I spoke at 98 different prison meetings. It was a real blessing
to talk and pray with the men. I would not trade the memories for
anything. To present hope in Jesus Christ is truly a privilege. This
year has gotten off to a good start meeting wise. I have been to
Baraga twice and Munising already. I had to cancel the first meeting
at Newberry due to weather, but I am looking forward to being there
on Jan. 28th. I have been ministering on the importance of having a
proper foundation in our lives of the Word of God. I start off this
message looking at what Peter said about how we came to receive Gods
Word. He reminds us that no prophecy of scripture came as a result
of a prophets own interpretation. He tells us that men of God spoke
as they were inspired of God. 2 Peter 1:19-21 From this passage we
understand that the bible is Gods own Word to us. Jesus further
teaches us, it is tremendously important what we do with these
Words. In Matthew 7:24-27 we read of Jesus illustration of two men
who built houses. Jesus likens these houses to those who hear Gods
Word. Jesus says the guy who builds his house on the rock is like
one who hears the Word of God and does it. The rock is a sure
foundation with no shifting when the storms of life come. The man
who builds his house on the sand is likened to one who only hears
Gods Word. He does not do it or apply it to his life. Then Jesus
mentions storms that come. There is no difference in the storm. Both
houses have to face it. The house that was built on the rock was
still standing after the storm came and went. The house built on the
sand came crashing down and Jesus said great was the fall of it.
In Proverbs 4:20-27 Solomon instructs his son on the importance of
listening to the Word. He says it is life to a mans body and health
to all his flesh. Did not Jesus himself teach us in John 6:63 His
Words are Spirit and Life? There is much more I have been sharing
with the inmates along these lines, but space does not permit me to
go into any more. As I mentioned, this newsletter is a bit late
because of paperwork I have had to get done and I have more
paperwork over the next few weeks to complete for years end
business. So I will not be putting out a newsletter in February. I
have an upcoming need that I wanted to let you know about. In May
car insurance is due for the year. It helps me if I can pay it in
one shot so I can apply monthly giving to other needs. Last year the
ins. was $1454. Anything that you are led to help with that cause is
greatly appreciated. I will continue to preach to the inmates as
long as God keeps the door open and I have the ability to go. Once
again, May God bless you and keep you.
