W.W.J.D.
W.W.J.D.1 Corinthians 11:23-26 For I pass on to you what I received from the Lord himself. On the night when he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took some bread 24 and gave thanks to God for it. Then He broke it in pieces and said, “THIS IS MY BODY, WHICH IS GIVEN FOR YOU. DO THIS TO REMEMBER ME.” 25 In the same way, he took the cup of wine after supper, saying, “THIS CU IS HE NEW COVENANT BETWEEN GOD AND HIS PEOPLE-AN AGREEMENT CONFIRMED WITH MY BLOOD.DO THIS TO REMEMBER ME AS OFTEN AS YOU DRINK IT.” 26 For every time you eat this bread ad drink this cup, you are announcing the Lord’s death until He comes again.”

Samaritan Purse volunteers
We have a dream to touch children of every nationality for Christmas, 2009 through the Samaritan Purse/Operation Christmas Box. It will take many hands to pull this off. We need people to wrap shoeboxes with Christmas Paper. We need people to go out and buy items for girls and boys 2-4 year olds, 5-9 year olds, and 10-14 year olds. Go on line to check the list of things you could buy and tuck in each box, watch the video and be inspired. You can give money directly on the Samaritan Purse site to fund the box project coming from CCI. It takes $7 a box to mail to a child somewhere in the world. What a wonderful thing to touch a child who probably would get nothing at Christmas. Write a note and tuck inside and become a pen pal to someone who is touched by your gift. Become involved. Join us at Christ Church Int’l/thedailyliies in being a small part in this massive outreach by the Samaritan’s Purse.

Chapter IX Book Review on Alice
In this next adventure Alice meets up with Duchess again who greets her fondly. Alice thinks perhaps the pepper was the cause of her hot temperment when they first met in the Duchess’ kitchen. As they stroll along together conversing, Alice discovers that the duchess finds a moral in everything that is said. The duchess thinks so highly of her words and morals that she leaves them all to Alice as a present. (Though many of her morals seem nonsensical, in theory I find a great deal of truth to this as shouldn’t our words should bring life to those we present them to?).
Suddenly the queen appears and gives the duchess an ultimatum to leave or have her head cut off. She chooses to leave and the Queen tells Alice they should get on with the game of croquet. However the Queen quarrels constantly and demands so many heads to be cut off that soon there’s no one left to play the game but the Queen, the King and Alice. That’s when the Queen tells Alice that she must find the Mock Turtle and listen to his history.

Had Christ Said ‘No’
Had Christ refused, His blood to shed,
Refused to bow His sacred head,
Had Jesus simply said “Oh, no.
Up Calvary’s Hill I will not go.”
Had Jesus simply said, “Not I,”
When called upon to bleed and die.
“I will not bear the sins of those
Who stripe my back and part my clothes.”
Quote for our Day
In the ongoing work of the kingdom of God, nothing is more important than Intercessory Prayer. People today desperately need the help that we can give them. We can make a difference if we will learn to pray for them.

“I am Free”
I went to a local Bible study for women, yesterday, and was so blessed by the song we sang. Here are the lyrics:
I Am Free by Jon Egan
D
Through you the blind will see.
Through you the mute will sing.
G
Through you the dead will raise.
Through you all hearts will praise.
Bm7
D
Through you the darkness flees.
Through you my heart screams I am free.
Wisdom’s Way
Proverbs 29:1 “Whoever stubbornly refuses to accept criticism will suddenly be destroyed beyond recover.”
Here are the footnotes from my Bible on the above scripture: “Warnings rarely come with countdowns. We can’t tell when we’ve had our last chance to change. When we, like the person in this proverb, refuse to consider valid criticism, we leave ourselves open to sudden disaster.
