1-3-07; Gen. 7-9; Mt. 3

Genesis 7-9 covers the great Flood and story of Noah's ark. There are some great pictures of sacrifice and redemption here that forshadowed the work of Jesus for you and me.

Mt. 3 introduces us to the ministry of John the Baptist - and in verse 11, tells us how Jesus would baptize us with the Holy Spirit and fire. You and I need the Holy Spirit working in our lives - purging away the old man - the old sin nature, and purifying us for His purposes, and inceasing and overflowing our passion for the Lord!

I need that power and so does Joyce. She is very tired and weak and has to start chemo again tomorrow. Please pray for us!

In His Arm's,

Pat

  3. Pat and Joyce,
    My prayers are with you today (1/4/07) as they are always. It is apparent that our Lord God is holding you both very close.

    Love, faith and peace to you.
