Dewey's Daily Cup

Dear KKIM Family,

God does not primarily delight in using what we bring to the table. He delights in what we surrender to Him. -Crawford Loritts, Jr.

Read that again please……..pray over it.

Let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions 1 John 3:1

It is so AWESOME to be with you today!

Let us give PRAISE and GLORY to GOD!!!

Here is a question for Pastor’s and congregations……….

Is your Church viewed as a negative, irrelevant, or positive factor in your community? What might need to change if anything?

And I ask that of myself of the Cup and KKIM!

As posted above Let’s not merely say that we love each other, let us show the truth by our actions 1 John 3:18

According to the New Testament, God wills that the church be a people who show what God is like. Stanley Grenz

Last night on NM News and Views weekdays at 4:30 on www.mykkim.com we talked about how everyone of us is tempted by sin everyday………and how we have to remain strong in God’s word……..how we have to be strong together……..how we have to put the Armour of God on everyday! We need to be praying constantly.
We are all one step away from doing something stupid!
In recent days we have heard about the Albuquerque Baseball Coach who has been a role model for many over the years get fired for doing something very stupid……
The former Sec. of State of NM was indicted this week on several charges……..
We read yesterday how Elizabeth Edwards is dealing with her husband, John, former Democratic candidate for President, and his affair and apparently fathering the child of his mistress, and how Mrs Edwards is fighting for her life as she has cancer.
We get weak in the flesh……….and can sin……..remain strong in God’s word…….remain strong in friendships with Christians.

We here at the Cup and KKIM are here to help you in your daily walk with Jesus Christ. Ed Moore taught me that years ago…..How is your walk with the Lord going Dewey? A question we need to ask ourselves everyday! I ask it of myself several times a day!

Here is a note from a friend……………

Hi Dewey,
I’d like to request prayer to lift this depression and anxiety I’ve been experiencing. And to learn to live day by day, in the now, without worrying about the future. And for the Lord to show me my purpose so my life has meaning.
Thanks,
Gwen

Gwen, I have been where you are at.it is no fun! What we have been talking about today…The love of the Church………praying………….reading God’s word………being around other Christians……..will be a big help. Also reading two books on worry…….I have handed out all my copies of the Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer. Also Max Lucado has a new book out titled, Fearless. We will be praying for you……I know you will find so much comfort in God’s word……….picture yourself being held in the arms of God!

Also Gwen and my dear friends read the following from Max Lucado and it will bring you peace………….

Death: Because of Christ, You Can Face It.
by Max Lucado
As heart surgeries go, mine was far from the riskiest. But any procedure that requires four hours of probes inside your heart is enough to warrant an added prayer. So on the eve of my surgery, Denalyn, I, and some kind friends offered our share. We were staying at a hotel adjacent to the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. We asked God to bless the doctors and watch over the nurses. After we chatted a few minutes, they wished me well and said good-bye. I needed to go to bed early. But before I could sleep, I wanted to offer one more prayer…alone.

I took the elevator down to the lobby and found a quiet corner and began to think. What if the surgery goes awry? What if this is my final night on earth? Is there anyone with whom I should make my peace? Do I need to phone any person and make amends? I couldn’t think of anyone. (So if you are thinking I should have called you, sorry. Perhaps we should talk.)

Next I wrote letters to my wife and daughters, each beginning with the sentence “If you are reading this, something went wrong in the surgery.”

Then God and I had the most honest of talks. We began with a good review of my first half century. The details would bore you, but they entertained us. I thanked him for grace beyond measure and for a wife who descended from the angels. My tabulation of blessings could have gone on all night and threatened to do just that. So I stopped and offered this prayer: I’m in good hands, Lord. The doctors are prepared; the staff is experienced. But even with the best of care, things happen. This could be my final night in this version of life, and I’d like you to know, if that’s the case, I’m okay.

And I went to bed. And slept like a baby. As things turned out, I recovered from the surgery, and here I am, strong as ever, still pounding away at the computer keyboard. One thing is different, though. This matter of dying bravely?

I think I will.

May you do the same.

Pleas pray for Pastor Jim Montoya and his family as they vacation in Colorado………….Please pray for Pastor Mark Tross’s family as they gather for the funeral of their Dad……..Please pray for Pastor Marvin Capehart and Pastor Larry Moss for health concerns.

Let us pray…………..

Lord, we know there are other believers everywhere praying right now. We are glad that we do not pray alone. Whatever is on their heart, we share with them. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!

In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family

Let us continue to pray for the Tross family as they gather in New jersey for the funeral.

We have been talking for week’s on NM News and Views what a joke these Town Hall Meetings are. They are more like a love fest. Pre-arranged High School pep rallies! Last night I got an email from our dear friend Jose Vasquez who keeps us posted on all the news at the Roundhouse in Santa Fe. It confirms what we have been saying. Also in this mornings Albuquerque Journal Thomas J. Cole writes about the same meeting Jose does and his take is the same. Cole was not even allowed in the meeting. And when the American people speak up they are called trouble makers!!! WOW! Most of these guys in Washington are hiding out and do not want to face the public and those that are having these so called Town Meetings, are a joke. Washington is treating us tax payers like we are so dumb!

Before we get to Jose’s report, Journal reporter Cole writes, “The site picked for the event, Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Santa Fe, one of the most progressive churches in one of the city’s most liberal neighborhoods. Questions would be submitted in writing on note cards. You could tell that Lujan got the crowd he wanted. Lots of Toyota Priuses and Subarus, and many sporting Obama, Free Tibet and anti-war bumper stickers.

Read Cole’s entire write up in this mornings Journal.

This is like controlling the people and press!!! This is crazy stuff!!! It’s happening all over the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave!!!

Here is Jose’s report………..

Dear Friends,

“Outrage. That’s my adrenaline.” The woman referred to as the “First Lady of the Press,” Ms. Helen Thomas, was not actually talking about Santa Fe. She had been manipulated by what the Obama administration called a “town hall” meeting to promote health care reform. In an interview on July 1, 2009, Ms. Thomas said, “Nixon didn’t try to do that. They couldn’t control [the media]. They didn’t try. What the hell do they think we are, puppets? I’m not saying there has never been managed news before, but this is carried to “fare-thee-well” for the town halls, for the press conferences,” she said. “It’s blatant. They don’t give a damn if you know it or not. They ought to be hanging their heads in shame.”

The disgust Ms. Thomas expressed was as the result of the insistence by President Obama that all questions be submitted prior to the meeting. That same shamelessness characterized Congressman Ben Ray Lujan’s manipulation of a “town hall” here in Santa Fe on Monday night. Hosted by the Social Justice Committee of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Santa Fe, the event was staged to help the Congressman promote the Health Care Reform Bill, HR 3200, of which he is a co-sponsor.

The Ben Ray Lujan manipulation didn’t stop with screening questions. First, seating was li mited to 150 persons. Of those, 72 seats were reserved for Unitarian Church members and those close to Lujan. Their support was obvious when the Congressman reached his first applause line. The front rows erupted, as did about a third of the hoi polloi behind.

To set the tone for the evening, Mr. Lujan had written a piece for the ABQ Journal Santa Fe headlined “Stakes Too High for Shouting Match.” A member of the host church’s Social Justice Committee stated that anyone shouting or making derogatory remarks “will be forcefully removed.” Rev. Jim Grant, the church’s pastor, gave a “make nice” speech. Then everyone had a timed 30 seconds of quiet time to meditate on making nice.

Besides Mr. Lujan, the panel consisted only of two avid supporters of the proposed bill including the so-called “Public Option”: Dr. Taylor Tyler, a physician from Los Alamos, and Lydia Pendley, a private citizen who is president of Health Care Action New Mexico. Rationalizations for the government takeover of the health care system were followed by the forceful demonizations of insurance companies. All the Democratic talking points were reinforced: how terrible insurance profits are, how those with pre-existing conditions are denied insurance, how claims are denied, how inflated health care CEO salaries are. Some how, unstated, 80% of American like like their coverage.

Nothing was said of the government’s failure in its current programs; Medicare and Medicaid, no r about tax increases, bloated government bureaucracies, health care rationing, failed systems in other countries, government funded abortions, or the lack of a “conscience clause” to protect medical personnel from having to terminate life. No one mentioned New Mexico’s Insurance Pool that insures those with 53 preexisting conditions such as AIDS and metastatic cancer. It was an evening of “let’s all make nice about this wonderful new Obama government program.”

Dr. Taylor produced his personal evaluations of various elements of the plan. Although he had given failing grades (Fs) to certain aspects, he did not fault the program, saying only, “Low grades do not necessarily mean failure, but those things need to be worked on.”

“Government can do it better. The public option is the answer,” was the mantra, with the adoring crowd applauding on cue. Congressman Lujan states that he favors a single payer system, and both Ms. Pendley and Dr. Taylor agree that was the only solution.

One question made an alternate point: “If most Americans are insured, why do you have to revamp the whole system?” The question went unanswered, as Mr. Lujan stood up to proclaim, “This bill would improve health care for those who are already insured.”

Another question dealt with cost. Mr. Lujan answered by completely mis-stating the Congressional Budget Office’s estimate. “The CBO says the plan will yield $6 billion more,” he s aid. The CBO Report estimates “a deficit of 239 billion over the next decade.” [See Wall Street Journal, Aug. 6, 2009, page A12.] Many other questions were not addressed, such as the question “Will my taxes pay for abortions?” [Yes.]

Yesterday in Santa Fe, there had been some concern that outside supporters might be bused in. However, there was absolutely no need for such a visible measure. When you fill half the room with guaranteed supporters, when you control who can sit where, when you control what questions are being asked, when extensive security ensures that no opposing voice will be heard – you’ve gone beyond Nixon.

Nixon had nothing on this evening of blatant, shameless propaganda.

Please be in prayer. God bless you.

Jose Vasquez
New Mexico Watchman

Thank you for that report Jose and I am thankful for your truthful reporting and that of Thomas J. Cole of the Albuquerque Journal. By the way Jose will be with me on NM News and Views today at 4:30 and rumor has it we will have a surprise guest singing the National Anthem, that is what I am hearing!

We are here to bring you the TRUTH! Even if you do not care, or you support the new health care bill, you should be very concerned how Washington is trying to control the media and the people. I have been a journalist for 35 years and I have never witnessed what I am seeing today!

Dear Lord, You are an all sufficient God, We turn to You in recognition of our insufficiency. Be our sufficiency as we pray. Enable us to be the intercessor’s that You desire. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!

I the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
