for she is going in for surgery tomorrow, here is a prayer for her - so that every one on here may pray along with it, for her to get out of surgery safe and for her to recover soon, without too much pain; but with the Healing touch of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Take heart, Barb! We love you.. hope to see you on here soon again!
Ephesians 3:12-21
In Him and through faith in Him we may approach God with freedom and confidence. I ask you, therefor, not to be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory.
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom His whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strenghten Barb with power through His Spirit in her inner being, so that Christ may dwell in her heart through faith. And I pray, that Barb, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide, and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge-that Barb may be filled to the measures of all the fullness of God.
Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all she asks or imagine, according to His power that is at work within Barb, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! - AMEN
For all of the Laura Branigan fans- even though we lost one of the best vocalists last year - Laura Branigan's Last Recordings entitled cd Remember Me is awesome. RIP Laura we love and miss you.
Laura Branigan had many hits but the one people know the best was her number one hit "Gloria" back in the eighties. She also had hits with "How am I Supposed To Live Without You", "Solitaire", "Spanish Eddie", and "Shattered Glass". She died last August from a brain an aneurysm in her home in New York at the age of 47. Her last recordings were released recently on a CD entitled "Remember Me" and I just wanted people to know.It is a shame to lose a great talent especially at such a young age.
This the message she posted in Gods Place and she asked me to post it in every F/S we both are in and on this board, because she is still too weak to be long online.. Please keep this lovely sister in your prayers and thoughts.. May the Lord lift her up and touch her with His Healing Power!!
I just got home from the hosp.this afternoon. Not the best of news but I pray all will go well for me. I am still very tired and weak. So I hope RamblinMan can stay on as Big Boss till I gain my strength back. He has done a great job for God's Place.. Thank you so much..Mike Hopefully I can get my games caught up a little. Not sure how I will feel and how long I can be on at a time yet. Dr. found the tumor and it was the size of our nickel. Dr had to take out one parathyroid gland. This tumor was also connected to the cord of the voice box. The Dr had to scrape it off .. Lucky he didn't have to cut the cord or I couldn't speak at all. But he did bruise it and my voice is now very faint and can't talk to much. My voice is injured.. The DR. said it may come back in time..But can't say for sure. Something we have to wait out. So please keep me in your prayers for this difficult time for me. I know God is with me and its his will for what is in store for me. Thank you for your prayers and God Bless

There comes a time in every woman's life when she has to take a close look at herself.
Not at her circumstance, not at what she did, not how unfair life is, or not at whom made you do it.
She has to just look at herself in all her glory and imperfection.
Have you ever admired a woman who has been through changes in her life?
Or have you made up in your mind that she is just messed up.
Before you make this mistake, take a closer look.
A woman who has endured the most unusual life is someone of wisdom,
Someone who has been chosen by God to go through things that have made her stronger.
Think of all the great women in the bible:
Mary Magdalene, Ruth and Naomi, the woman with an issue of blood flow, and Esther, to name a few.
Mary was a prostitute, a very uneasy woman.
But by the time Jesus was done with her, she was His closest follower.
Esther was unfortunate in marrying an abusive man,
By the time God was done with her, she had married one of the wealthiest men in the land.
Women are so quick to beat the next one down instead of trying to hold her up.
Before you wonder, "What's up with her?" ask yourself, "What's up with me?"
That woman could be my mother, sister, aunt, niece, grandmother, friend, etc.
That woman could be me.
Women are the carriers of life, not the channels of death.
Let's build and encourage each other, as did Ruth and Naomi.
Pass this to all the women in your life.
Encourage and Love
Forgive and Forget
Trust that the woman that receives this will be touched in some way.
May peace and love be upon you
We're building up or tearing down, in everything we say or do......
Are you on the construction team, or the wrecking crew?

Today I feel much pain and feelings of loss.. as I just received an email from a friend in Canada, that her husband passed away. He was the warmest person I have known in all the years im playing here online.. He was that kind of person who helped and listened and shared what he honestly thought of things... I know he is with God and looking forward seeing him again once I arrive there aswell.. [] Please remember Anne and her family in your prayers! Thank you,
Jules: Yeah:) Jules, ya always had the right porportion of Zen and and faith. Just remember Jules we all sin...But God loves us, I think, with our imperfections, not despite them. God loves us all.
Its a very strange sensation to know that a friend you used to write a message to suddenly is not there anymore! Not that Phil and me had much contact lately, but still, I sent him email every now and then.. I wonder how this feels for all of you.. Do we only play games here, or are we indeed close friends.. at least that is how i feel. we share so much time together online, playing games, talking, sharing and some are bickering, but yet.. we are all here and be together..
I just had to share this today, that i feel how much you all mean to me and how much I appreciate your messages and your thoughts and our games!! And i think we need to be aware of that all the time and not take it for granted, because life is fragile...
ok, thanks for bearing with me.. a part from my sorrow heart!!
