Still Shut Down REPRINT

See the source image

From June 27, 2019     Good to see the bad guys finally got what was coming to them.  PD

 

The Chalcedon Foundation website (www.chalcedon.edu) is still shut down, we still don’t know what happened to it, and our tech guys are still working to try to bring us back online.

Just a couple of weeks ago some “journalist” sporting a rainbow T-shirt and a Palestinian face mask was “investigating” us for being a “hate group.” The substance of his investigation was that the Southern Poverty Law Center called us a hate group in 2006, so obviously we must be one, yatta-yatta. He complains to our server, and the next thing we know, our website is down.

Some of us have come to believe that Big Tech will do whatever it takes to ensure a Democrat presidency from whom they can buy whatever favors they need. Part of that strategy has to be to stifle conservatives, to erase their presence from the social media.

Meanwhile, Patty has solved and corrected the problem of my book chapters coming out as gibberish, so at least that one can come off Chalcedon’s to-do list.

Please pray for my employers and my mentors, The Chalcedon Foundation. Father in Heaven, we are being kept from our ministry–this is my belief–by the ungodly, who have interfered with our communications. They can’t get at you, so they come after your servants. Please, Lord, see us through this frustrating time, help us get back online, and protect us from the malice of your enemies. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Answered Prayers: Jax the Kitten REPRINT

jaxx and boo now

From November 24, 2017

See that great big black cat sleeping with his best friend, the pit bull, on the sofa?

That big cat, some months ago, was Jax the little kitten, picked up by my stepdaughter Georgia in the middle of a storm, adopted, and found to be at death’s door, due to a serious blood condition requiring immediate treatment–including a transfusion of very rare donor blood, etc.

Many of us prayed for Jax, and now you can see the result.

It’s become fashionable these days, in a fallen world populated by sinners who have free will and atrociously abuse it, to say that prayer is futile, waste of breath, just won’t work–even some who call themselves Christians are saying that prayer is just a waste of time. And who has never had that thought cross his mind?

But this fine healthy cat is here because a woman had compassion on him, and acted on it, and because God heard our prayers and did the rest.

Rejoice, give thanks, and sing.

Lookin’ Bad for Me

I wanted an image of a sick turtle, and this is what they gave me. By cracky, that turtle is a tower of health and strength, compared to what I am.

I’m not getting any better. I feel horrible.

Patty says I should get more exercise. The thought of doing so is a very daunting one… because everything hurts.

Please pray for me.

Under the Bed (It’s Me)

What's Hiding Under Your Bed? – The Invisible Man

I’m making a prayer request for myself this morning. Because I think I need as many of them as I can get. Please feel free to hop on board! We’ve got lots and lots of room. And we welcome prayer requests from anybody and about anybody.

My own morale/spiritual  strength is shriveling in the sun: I can’t keep track of all the medical interventions they say I’ll require. Looks like everybody’s going to get a nice new hip replacement… except me.

Oh, for some high-quality sleep!

Here We Go Again

Oh, look! Mr. Cancer’s coming back!

I thought we’d gotten rid of him.

Well, we had–for a little while.

It strikes me as unfair!

Who told you life was fair?

Anyway, folks, I’m gonna need your prayers and plenty of ’em. I’m finding it borderline impossible to put any trust in Science. God has to have a better way.

Prayer Request: Heather

Please, let’s join together in prayer for Heather, daughter of our dear friend, Thewhiterabbit. Heather, 55, has come down with liver cancer. Her father, our friend David,. is with her now.

Please, Lord, bless and defend this family, your servants. Protect and heal them by the power of Jesus’ name: Amen.

Prayer Request: Heather

Our friend “TheWhiteRabbit” has a prayer request, on behalf of his daughter, Heather.

O Lord our God, we are your people, the sheep of your hand; and we need our shepherd.

Your servant David’s daughter is sick, we don’t know how badly–but we prayer for her, and for your blessing and protection. Please, Father, be swift to heal her. Let David’s family shelter under your wings. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Still Sick… (*Sigh*)

People keep saying I look better. But I feel like a boulder rolled downhill and squashed me. I can’t imagine any reason for friends, family, and casual acquaintances to say this if it weren’t so. All I can say for sure is, I’m still sick.

And I have to wait till mid-August just to have a “consultation” about my no-good broken him. They’ll fix it… someday. Meanwhile, it hurts all night, all day. What I wouldn’t give for a good night’s sleep!

I will try to work today. Please pray for me and wish me luck.

Prayer Request: Elder Mike

Please pray for our friend and brother, Elder Mike, whose brother has just suffered a stroke. Mike lives in the Philippines; I don’t know how far he is from his brother.

O Lord our God, please hear our prayer! Please bless and comfort your servant, Mike, and protect and heal his brother, who needs you now.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Prayer Request: Erlene

Please, everybody, life up prayers for our sister in Christ (and the senior member of our blogging community), Erlene. She’s been having a hard time lately.

Erlene, hang in there! We’re all with you in prayer.

Please, Father in Heaven: be gracious, be merciful to your servant Erlene. Let her be with us a little longer. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
