Thanks for posting the schedule and Aloha, Ronnie. Miracles was done here locally and I've been eager to see it.

 

Blessings!

You can also order the DVD or Tape of "MIRALCES" on its website:

It's a real stunner in a quiet sort of way, and most moving, as it encourages all to be more open to LOVE.

Thank you SO MUCH!

It's funny, and it's no coincidence (I don't believe in coincidence)--that there was a report on the radio tonight that they will try to negotiate/speak with the insurgents in Iraq. They have called a cease-fire.

If ever there was a time to pray, to ask God for the light of love to come into people's hearts, now is the time.

Thank you again for your reply. :)

"Not to be picky but I saw it at Camp Anaconda. about 40 miles from Baghdad."

LOL, well, whereever you saw it, I'm glad you had the opportunity to do so.

And thank you so much for the battle in "on the physical plane."

Sadly, at this point in human evolution, it is still required. But I have faith that someday, it will not be.

[RaceBannon]

Oh Yeah? I saw it in Meriden Connecticut!

Now, THAT'S a dangerous place!

okay, I have to log off for tonight. I wanted to respond to each of you before I did, but I just can't.

I thank you so much, and I will answer you tomorrow. :)

The one thing that makes me so happy is that, for every actual post, there are probably at least a couple of lurkers who may be praying right now. :)

[The Mayor]

When we indulge our negative emotions, when we judge ourselves and others, when we act out of fear or hatred, we condemn ourselves to Hell on Earth.

Amen..

I am in constant Prayer for our Troops, I feel angry, hurt and sometimes outright cry. I commit these Brave Men and Women to the Lord in Prayer.

No greater sacrifice has a man, than to give His life for another. May God Bless, guide, strengthen and comfort them all.

I didn't see this thread before I went to church, but thought this was very interesting -- our pastor, whose son is in the 2/7 Marines in the Sunni Triangle, asked the entire congregation to join hands this morning in silent (and then led) prayer for our troops in harms way in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere in the world. There were probably 250 people there focusing in prayer for about 5 minutes together...and that was the early service. I'm sure it was repeated in the late service where there were probably over 600. This must be a God thing....

Ping to my post #28....

[Libertina]

I rountinely pray for my enemies' hearts to be opened to God. IF not, I pray for us to be victorious.

I just wanted to thank you!

I had an interesting experience in the middle of the night--I woke up and prayed for the terrorists. Then, I asked that the pain in my hip stop (I think I'm getting arthritis and yesterday I literally couldn't walk!).

And suddenly, it was gone, I swear. It was absolutely amazing. I took that as a sign that this could work! :)

Wow! That's amazing.

Please see #31--I swear I had a sign, of sorts, that this will work :)

"I shall join you in the Mysterious Reality of Prayer."

Thank you so much. Please see #31; I think I had a "sign" of sorts that this will work.

"People around the world are walking in to theaters spiritually blind, and walking out wanting to see even more clearly. May the new view be eternal."

Beautifully said.

I read a rather sad article in yesterday's paper. Apparently black market tapes and DVDs of The Passion are selling like crazy in the Middle East--according to this article, Yasser Arafat watched it and loved it.

Unfortunately, they are loving it because they have concluded it is anti-Semitic. One journalist said something to the effect that, "Given what Mel Gibson has done to further anti-Semitism, I would hate to be him on Judgement Day."

It's just sad and amazing how people don't get it.

Thank you so much for your post. I didn't know that Mel was inspired by "We Were Soldiers." I'll definitely have to rent that movie.

And "Miracles of the Passion," sounds incredible. I loved this quote:

"An 11-month-old baby girl drowned in her bathtub, going 10 minutes without oxygen, but is alive today without a trace of brain damage on the CAT scan because the parents both visualized the flogging scene from the movie “The Passion” and claimed the verse “by His stripes we are healed.”

Hi,
I noticed you have a "Passion" ping list. If you feel this is appropriate, would you pass it along?

It's an idea for focused prayer by Freepers to reduce the resistance and anger in Iraq. I'd love for this to really "snowball," as it were.

[proud American in Canada]

Thanks for your post--I was going to ping you as well.

I hope you had a happy Easter. :)

Thanks for posting the Updike poem. (Although, years ago I went from that, excited, to his novels, and was disgusted.)

He is risen indeed.

[proud American in Canada]

Hi,
I put this in religion and it doesn't seem to be getting much traction here. :(

Is it possible to put it in current events, or perhaps some other appropiate area where it would be seen by more people? After all, it is an effort to deal, in a spiritual way, with the insurgents in Iraq.

Very good post my friend.

God Bless you and your family in this Easter Season
