Dear KKIM family,
May God be with you and yours!
Blessed is the man whose delight is in the fear of the LORD.
He is like a tree planted
by streams of water;
which yields its fruit in season.
Whatever he does prospers.
Psalm 1: 1-3
That scripture came to me in a coffee cup!!!!!!! Radio Evangelist and Author Karen Rowe mailed me a box of love! WOW! Karen sent me a box of goodies for writing the forward in her book! She sure did not have to do that! She sent me two coffee cups, the other one has the logo of the Train Whistle on it! www.thetrainwhistle.com
On this plaque Karen gave me are two scriptures that made me weep…….
For God is not unrighteous
to forget your labor and
love which you have shown
for His name’s sake in
Ministering to
the needs of His saints,
as you still do.
Hebrews 6:10
and also this……….
It is God Himself who
made you who you are and has
given you a new life from
Christ Jesus;
and long ago He planned that
you should spend your life in
helping others.
Ephesians 2:10
Thank you Dear Karen for sharing that scripture with us for God’s Glory Alone! These scriptures fit so many of you that are reading this CUP!
I still look forward to getting mail! Not email……but U.S. Mail………..
Yesterday I got two cards of encouragement in the mail one from Karen and the other from Wannel Pate! I so much appreciate the encouragement, we all need encouragement from each other!
I was asked yesterday by a bank teller in her early 20’s why I thought why so many kid’s and families are struggling. One key reason is that there is not a man in the house to offer Godly encouragement! There maybe a man in the house, but not a Godly man! Too many children have grown up and are growing up without a Kingdom Man! Godly men can turn this World around for Jesus! I will die saying that!
Tony Evans says:
Men, we serve in a Kingdom. God is our King. Christ is our head, our leader. And He has asked us to stand fast. He has asked us to give our individual allegiance to Christ’s command through His headship over our lives, regardless of the cost. It is our responsibility as men to see it that those under our care—-those who depend on us and those within our realm of influence——have every opportunity possible for protection, provision, and safety. If we don’t give that to them, not only will they end up suffering, but others will suffer too.
It becomes generational!
I remember when Chuck Colson was here in Albuquerque for the Biblical Worldview Conference and he said, “If we could have conferences like this all over America we could turn this Country of ours around!”
This brings me to the writing on the front of the card I got from Karen……….This is for all of us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just think…………..
You’re here
not by chance, but
by God’s choosing.
His hand formed you
and made you
the person you are.
he compares you
to no one else———
you are one of a kind.
You lack for nothing that
His grace
can’t give you.
He has allowed you
to be here at this time
in history to fulfill
His special purpose
for this generation.

Darlene Quiring sent the following story into us yesterday………Thanks for this Darlene, I remember posting this a few years ago and it really touched the hearts of many!
THE STORY OF EDITH BURNS…
!
Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio , Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.
One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns. When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.
Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: “Hello, my name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?” Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.
Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly . Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure.
Edith began by saying, “My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?”
Beverly said, “Why yes I do.”
Edith said, “Well, what do you believe about Easter?”
Beverly said, “Well, it’s all about egg hunts, going to church, and dressing up.” Edith kept pressing her about the real meaning of Easter, and finally led her to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
Dr. Phillips said, ” Beverly , don’t call Edith into the office quite yet. I believe there is another delivery taking place in the waiting room.
After being called back in the doctor’s office, Edith sat down and when she took a look at the doctor she said, “Dr. Will, why are you so sad? Are you reading your Bible? Are you praying?”
Dr. Phillips said gently, “Edith, I’m the doctor and you’re the patient.” With a heavy heart he said, “Your lab report came back and it says you have cancer, and Edith, you’re not going to live very long.”
Edith said, “Why Will Phillips, shame on you. Why are you so sad? Do you think God makes mistakes? You have just told me I’m going to see my precious Lord Jesus, my husband, and my friends. You have just
Told me that I am going to celebrate Easter forever, and here you are having difficulty giving me my ticket!”
Dr. Phillips thought to himself, “What a magnificent woman this Edith Burns is!”
Edith continued coming to Dr. Phillips. Christmas came and the office was closed through January 3rd. On the day the office opened, Edith did not show up. Later that afternoon, Edith called Dr. Phillips and said she would have to be moving her story to the hospital and said, “Will, I’m very near home, so would you make sure that they put women in here next to me in my room who need to know about Easter.”
Well, they did just that and women began to come in and share that room with Edith. Many women were saved. Everybody on that floor from staff to patients were so excited about Edith, that they started calling her Edith Easter; that is everyone except Phyllis Cross, the head nurse.
Phyllis made it plain that she wanted nothing to do with Edith because she was a “religious nut”. She had been a nurse in an army hospital. She had seen it all and heard it all. She was the original G.I. Jane. She had been married three times, she was hard, cold, and did everything by the book.
One morning the two nurses who were to attend to Edith were sick. Edith had the flu and Phyllis Cross had to go in and give her a shot.
When she walked in, Edith had a big smile on her face and said, “Phyllis, God loves you and I love you, and I have been praying for you.”
Phyllis Cross said, “Well, you can quit praying for me, it won’t work.. I’m not interested.”
Edith said, “Well, I will pray and I have asked God not to let me go home until you come into the family.”
Phyllis Cross said, “Then you will never die because that will never happen,” and curtly walked out of the room.
Every day Phyllis Cross would walk into the room and Edith would say, “God loves you Phyllis and I love you, and I’m praying for you.”
One day Phyllis Cross said she was literally drawn to Edith’s room like a magnet would draw iron. She sat down on the bed and Edith said, “I’m so glad you have come, because God told me that today is your special day”
Phyllis Cross said, “Edith, you have asked everybody here the question, “Do you believe in Easter but you have never asked me.”
Edith said, “Phyllis, I wanted to many times, but God told me to wait until you asked, and now that you have asked.” Edith Burns took her Bible and shared with Phyllis Cross the Easter Story of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Edith said, “Phyllis, do you believe in Easter? Do you believe that Jesus Christ is alive and that He wants to live in your heart?”
Phyllis Cross said, “Oh I want to believe that with all of my heart, and I do want Jesus in my life “Right there, Phyllis Cross prayed and invited Jesus Christ into her heart. For the first time Phyllis Cross did not walk out of a hospital room, she was carried out on the wings of angels.
Two days later, Phyllis Cross came in and Edith said, “Do you know what day it is?” Phyllis Cross said, “Why Edith, it’s Good Friday.”
Edith said, “Oh, no, for you every day is Easter. Happy Easter Phyllis!”
Two days later, on Easter Sunday, Phyllis Cross came into work, did some of her duties and then went down to the flower shop and got some Easter lilies because she wanted to go up to see Edith and give her some Easter lilies and wish her a Happy Easter.
When she walked into Edith’s room, Edith was in bed. That big black Bible was on her lap. Her hands were in that Bible. There was a sweet smile on her face. When Phyllis Cross went to pick up Edith’s hand, she realized Edith was dead. Her left hand was on John 14: “In my Father’s house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.”
Her right hand was on Revelation 21:4, “And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes, there shall be no more death nor sorrow, nor crying; and there shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
Phyllis Cross took one look at that dead body, and then lifted her face toward heaven, and with tears streaming down her cheeks, said, “Happy Easter, Edith – Happy Easter!”
Phyllis Cross left Edith’s body, walked out of the room, and over to a table where two student nurses were sitting. She said, “My name is Phyllis Cross. Do you believe in Easter?”

May I Please Borrow $25?

Family | Hmm | Kid Lessons | Life Application
A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
SON: ‘Daddy, may I ask you a question?’
DAD: ‘Yeah sure, what it is?’ replied the man.
SON: ‘Daddy, how much do you make an hour?’
DAD: ‘That’s none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?’ the man said angrily.
SON: ‘I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?’
DAD: ‘If you must know, I make $50 an hour.’
SON: ‘Oh,’ the little boy replied, with his head down.
SON: ‘Daddy, may I please borrow $25?’
The father was furious, ‘If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I don’t work hard everyday for such childish frivolities.’ The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?
After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down , and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $25.00 and he really didn’t ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door. ‘Are you asleep, son?’ He asked. ‘No daddy, I’m awake,’ replied the boy. ‘I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier’ said the man ‘It’s been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here’s the $25 you asked for.’
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. ‘Oh, thank you daddy!’ He yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father. ‘Why do you want more money if you already have some?’ the father grumbled. Because I didn’t have enough, but now I do,’ the little boy replied. ‘Daddy, I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.’
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness. It’s just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time s lip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $50 worth of your time with someone you love.
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of hours. But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives.
dream BIG. think BIGGER.

April 10, 2012. Live well the moments I give you in this world. A 93 year old man joined me for coffee at McDonalds. The brightness of his eyes and clothing impressed me as a man of wealth and stature. He got married to his childhood girlfriend when she was 16 and he was 17. They were married 63 years. She died quietly in bed beside him 13 years ago as they slept. He reads the Bible daily and attends church every Sunday. All their children are Christian. He greatly inspired and encouraged me today. We hope to meet again. The Lord says, “Show yourself friendly and new and old friends will gather to you like a magnet. Encourage and inspire them in the Lord with your testimony of faith.”
Proverbs 18:24 (NKJV) “A man who has friends must himself be friendly, But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” Ras Robinson

April 10, 2012. Once we had a neighbor who was good husband and father. He also was a vice president in a large corporation. I had witnessed about the Lord to the rest of the family and was now discipling one of their teen age daughters. One day while jogging through the neighborhood the Lord impressed me to witness to this father. I ran to their house still sweaty. I asked him not to say a word until I finished talking. He listened, but his first words were “Do you believe in reincarnation?” I replied, “No God offers Heaven. God says, “Do you fully believe My Word or something else you have heard about?
Hebrews 9:27-28 (NKJV) “And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.” Bev Robinson

April 10, 2012. Just as a parent often gives reminders to their child on proper conduct and correct behavior, so too will I. Over and over again, you can easily notice and perceive how kids quickly point their finger at someone else for being unfair. They often cannot be reasoned with or will not act logically or rationally. You easily see the skewed conduct among little ones but cannot see the same actions in yourself. People deceived don’t recognize their own misconduct. Don’t war within yourself. Begin looking at troubling situations from outside the box. See and hear who your battle is truly against. Open your eyes and ears to your own improper actions.
Ephesians 6:12 (NKJV) “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.” Kevin Robinson
Here’s our Medical bag with Dr. Joe!
Walk it Off!
Walking does your body a world of wonders: It improves your mood, flattens your belly, reduces body fat, and improves cholesterol. But it does something else, too: Walking reduces your risk for diabetes.
That’s right. Take 10,000 steps a day (5 days a week) and you’ll lower your diabetes risk three times more than if you walk only 3,000 steps a day. Learn how walking lowers your risk for diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure, and more.
You’re probably already logging about 5,000 steps. Even sedentary folks rack up about 3,000 (1.5 miles). Here are easy ways to walk more steps:
Track how far you walk. You’ll be amazed at how a pedometer motivates you to walk even more. Pick a model with an easy-to-read display, a sturdy clip, and a loop-on “leash.” (It’s easy to lose!)
Buy good walking shoes. Running or walking shoes are fine as long as they keep your ankles stable. Running shoes have more cushion in the heels; walking shoes, more arch support. For the comfiest fit, shop in the afternoon, when your feet are slightly swollen.
Sit less, walk more. Walk — don’t sit — while you talk on the phone. Also, put an exercise machine in front of every TV and a portable pedal machine under your desk at work.
Walk farther each week. Increase your steps 10% a week. Even if you begin walking at 3,000 steps, in less than 6 months you’ll be up to 10,000.
“Walking saved my life.” So say many walking enthusiasts who picked up the habit and as a result either reduced their risk of disease, lost weight, beat depression, or enjoyed countless other major health rewards.
Although you may not be surprised to know that walking is considered a superior health habit, it might surprise you to learn just how much research has confirmed the far-reaching and diverse health benefits that regular walkers experience.
Some doctors, including me, and scientists even believe that walking regularly can reverse illness and aging, making the simple act of walking quite possibly the most underrated prescription for good health.
Here’s a list of health wishes that walking can fulfill for you
1. I wish I had more energy.
A short, brisk walk has both a calming and an energizing effect, according to research. And walking may help you feel more alert and well-rested because of its ability to improve the quality of your sleep. Walking at a moderate pace later in the day can help encourage deep, restful sleep. Finally, the mood boost you experience from walking may further enhance your energy levels.
Walk toward a good night’s sleep. In a study, people who walked more than six blocks per day reduced their sleep problems by one third. Walking at a brisk pace cut their sleep problems in half.
2. I wish I could think more clearly.
Need to sort out some things in your head? Few activities help improve your perspective as quickly as a brisk walk, which will boost circulation in all parts of the body, including your brain.
Some research has also shown that walking is associated with less cognitive decline and a reduced risk of dementia later in life.
In addition to improving cognitive function, walking regularly can help you handle stressful situations and help you remain in control of your emotions, which clears the path for straight thinking.
3. I wish I could protect myself from my parents’ diseases.
Your genetics determine only a small part of your health profile. Research shows it’s how you live your life that really counts, and walking regularly can prevent and improve many serious chronic diseases.
Here is a short list of ways that walking can reduce the impacts of disease. Moderately intense activities such as walking can:
– Reduce cardiovascular disease by as much as 30%–50
– Decrease osteoarthritis pain and improve stability, endurance, and agility
– Reduce the risk of colon cancer and possibly breast cancer
– Protect against diabetes in high-risk people and lower blood glucose and improve insulin action in diabetics
– Lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart attack
4. I wish I could lose weight.
Although you might think that losing weight is the only way to enjoy an improved health profile, the truth is that regular walkers may not have to worry quite as much about what the scale says. Studies show that thin, sedentary people may have more markers of heart disease risk than overweight people who exercise regularly.
Nonetheless, losing weight is a great way to improve your health profile, and walking can help you accomplish this goal. Brisk walking will increase the number of calories you burn each day and can boost your muscle mass, which in turn helps your body burn more calories throughout the day, not just while you are exercising.
5. I wish I felt happier in general.
Protecting and nurturing your mental health is an important part of overall wellness, and studies show that brisk walking regularly has the ability to lower your stress levels. Also, studies show that aerobic exercise such as walking may bring long-term benefits to your mental disposition by warding off both depression and anxiety.
Steps Toward Better Health
No other prescription for your health is as free and easy as walking. It can even equal more vigorous forms of exercise in terms of its ability to improve your health profile. And it’s easier on your body, especially your joints, than activities such as running.
Don’t think you have the time to walk? Just take a short walk in the morning and another at lunch or after work. Physical activity can be accumulated over the course of a day rather than all in one session, and it doesn’t have to result in weight loss to have health benefits.
So start where you are, and gradually increase the amount of time you spend walking. You’ll be granting yourself some very key health wishes in the process.
