God Bless you Jerry and Kelly, and Happy Mothers Day to Kelly and all the Mother’s out there. My Mom Ruth was called home to Heaven in 1995. Some where I have a picture of me that my Dad took of me running home from School with a handful of dandelions, and I had the biggest smile on my face as I picked them for my Mom!!!! I will always remember my Mom as always working for us kids and Dad. Either cooking, washing, shopping at the store, working as Cook at the School, always taking care of someone or something, and doing it in such a gentle way. Mom stood by us kids no matter what. Her Bible was one of the most marked up Bibles I have ever seen, verses underlined circled, notes….etc.She read that Bible and used God’s Word to carry out her life on this earth. One of the reasons I am at where I am today is because of the model my Mom set for me, a Christian role Model. I was blessed by Mom and Grandma Caraway who told me in 1972 that I would be a Preacher someday! YES! AMEN to that! Grandma Moede passed onto heaven when I was in Kindergarten, but I remember sitting on her lap and I can still feel her love to this day. You see, by having the childhood I had, I want to share that goodness with all. God has called me to minister to Children that do not have a Mom present in the house or a Dad in the House, or children that have been abused by their Mother or Dad. God has also called me to Minister to the single Parent, The Mom who is all alone this weekend. The past 2 weeks I have been counseling a lady in her 40’s who was abused by her Dad, and the wounds are still fresh this day as her Dad was in the hospital and she was battling whether to call him and say she forgives him. My Mom and Grandma’s would circle this lady and give her a hug and say to her, I love you and so does Jesus! That is the love that we need to model and share with the World, the Love of Jesus Christ!
ps…….To this day I carry had written letters that I received from Mom over the years…..her beautiful hand writing, which I did not inherit! LOL LOL, But the love she showed me through her letters, wherever I was working in radio, in Montana, North Dakota, Indiana, South Dakota……she always was putting her love for me in words……..you see this was before email!!!!
This day I have Sharon who models to to the kid’s all the time………and models that love to me…….showing me and the kid’s a Godly love, she is a bright light in the family, helping guide me and the kids in a Godly way. She does the same as a nurse at the Hospital..she is God’s nurse here on earth! AMEN!
“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts”. –Washington Irving
Mother’s Day Prayer
My mom, I love her
And that’s why I pray
Not just today on this Mother’s Day
But with each remembrance
Of the love she’s expressed
My thankfulness to the Lord I’ve professed
For my life began
In a warm and safe place
Then grew more secure in Mom’s tender embrace
When I was little
She taught me to crawl
Then to walk and run, and get up when I fall
Nurtured and cared for
She raised me to stand
Lifted, supported, by her loving hand
She believed in me
Inspired me to dream
Nothing was impossible for me, it seemed
It was her example
That pointed the way
To the life in Christ I know today
My mom, I love her
On this Mother’s Day
She’s the reason I’m taking this moment to pray
My mom, I love her
Let her know, dear Lord
Please bless her with the most abundant reward
–Mary Fairchild
If you want to add a special touch to your Mother’s Day card or letter this year, consider including a meaningful passage from scripture about what it means to be a mother and the impact mothers can have on our lives. While the Bible is full of references to motherhood, the following ten verses are my favorites*.
1. Hebrews 12:11: “All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.” This verse is an excellent introduction to expressing your thankfulness to your mother for how she raised you, which helped you develop into who you are today.
2. Proverbs 6:20-23: “My son, observe the commandment of your father and do not forsake the teaching of your mother; bind them continually on your heart; tie them around your neck. When you walk about, they will guide you; when you sleep, they will watch over you; and when you awake, they will talk to you. For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching is light; and reproofs for discipline are the way of life.” You can use this verse to thank you mother for her wisdom and guidance and remind her that you will always hold what she has taught you close to your heart.
3. Proverbs 31:10-12, 25-30: “An excellent wife, who can find? For her worth is far above jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will have no lack of gain. She does him good and not evil all the days of her life … Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she smiles at the future. She opens her mouth in wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. She looks well to the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and bless her; her husband also, and he praises her, saying: ‘Many daughters have done nobly, but you excel them all.’ Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.” This passage describes God’s vision for motherhood. Husbands, this verse is especially perfect for a Mother’s Day card or letter to your wife, the mother of your children.
4. 1 Timothy 1:5: “But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.” While growing up, and especially during our teen years, many of us have probably felt, at one time or another, that our parents’ discipline was too strong or too strict. Over the years, however, we come to realize that our parents disciplined us because they loved us. Thank your mom for providing you with sound “instruction” even when it may have been difficult.
5. 1 John 3:18: “Let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and truth.” This is a verse for the mom who has always communicated how much she loves you not just with her words, but also through her actions.
6. 1 Corinthians 13:13: “But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.” Has your mother given you all three? Tell her so, with a thankful heart.
7. Proverbs 29:17: “Correct your son, and he will give you comfort; He will also delight your soul.”
8. Psalm 139:13: “For You formed my inward parts; You wove me in my mother’s womb.”
9. Isaiah 66:13: “As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you …”
10. John 16:21: “Whenever a woman is in labor she has pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish because of the joy that a child has been born into the world.” This verse is particularly fitting for a pregnant woman or a new mom.
No matter which Bible verse you choose to include in your Mother’s Day card or letter, your mom is sure to cherish it as long as you’ve written it from your heart.
He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [and to be] a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD. Psalm 113:9
WHO IS MOTHER?
Mother is half of the Father/Mother team, the one who gave birth to you as a child. When she first held you in her arms, she fell madly in love with you! She is the one that changed your diaper, gave you your bottle, bathed and dressed you. She is the one who tended to you when you were sick, wishes she could have bore your pain, but unable to even share it with you. There is none like a Mother.
If you have children, then you know what it’s like to be a Mother. Often, it’s a tough job, with unruly children, and many heartaches before they are grown. Sometimes a Mother is lucky that she has well-disciplined children, but only because she has done her best in order for them to be well-adjusted teenagers and later adults. Mostly, Mother sits and worries that she hasn’t done her best with her children, especially if they don’t turn out as she thought they should, with all the training she had given them.
Mother is a human being, capable of making mistakes. She is not perfect, just as none of us are perfect. But she is the one that we picture as being perfect during our childhood. As we become older, we realize that Mothers are capable of right and wrong ways of doing things, missing the mark, just as much as the next person. But she is still Mother. The thing that sets her apart is her everlasting love for her children and her intent that they lead normal, well-adjusted lives.
Not until we become adults, do we really begin to appreciate WHO Mother really is. She has nurtured you through your childhood, put up with your sassy ways and times of being lazy during your teenage years, and cried through your becoming an adult. But Mother was always there to encourage you when you made a mistake, although sometimes it’s hard not to show disappointment {I am sure I’ve done that}.
As we grow older and have our own children, we realize that Mother was a very strong person, and we begin to wonder can we ever fit into her shoes. No, we wear our ‘own shoes’……..we can never do things the same as our Mother, although she has given us the pattern from which to build. IF we have a Godly Mother {I did!}, then we can bring up our children in the ways of God, so that when they grow older we have the assurance that some day they will live for God. After all, Proverbs 22:6 says “Train up a child in the ways he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
Mothers are special. Is your Mother living today? If so, try to make this Mother’s Day the most wonderful day of her life! Show her you care if only by telling her you love her. Take her out to eat, take her flowers, but show up on Mother’s Day, if possible. You will never know how much this helps Mother to realize her family still cares. Sometimes we get busy doing the usual things in life, and lose sight of the most important aspects – loving our family. And Mother happens to be where that ‘family’ began. Without Mother, there would never have been a family. You might also tell Daddy that you are so happy that he chose Mother to be his wife. Make his eyes light up as well!!

This was written by the Late Chuck Colson in 2007……
This upcoming Sunday is Mother’s Day. It’s the day when Americans remember and celebrate the contributions and sacrifices their moms have made on their behalf.
In honor of Mother’s Day, I’d like to tell you a story about one mother whose devotion shaped not only her son’s life but countless others, as well.
Her name was Monica. A Christian, she was married to a prominent man who wasn’t a believer. He was unfaithful and even beat her at times. Monica’s response was to go to church every day and pray for his conversion. She hoped that by setting a godly example, even in the midst of her mistreatment, she might win him over. And that’s exactly what happened.
The suffering and anguish caused by her husband paled before what Monica’s oldest son put her through. He lived a dissolute life, devoted to pleasure. He left one mistress and took up with another. His only son was born out-of-wedlock.
His lack of faith and rejection of Christian truth hurt Monica even more. He belittled her beliefs and seemed to go out of his way to embrace Christianity’s competitors for the hearts and, especially, minds of his contemporaries. He later recalled how his being “dead [to] that faith and spirit which,” as he put it, “[my mother] had from you… O, Lord” made her weep.
Still, Monica never gave up. The greatest preacher of the time, knowing of her prayers and tears for her son, told her that “it is impossible that the son of so many tears should perish.”
That preacher, Bishop Ambrose of Milan, was right. At the age of 35, Monica’s son, Augustine, became a Christian and was baptized, along with his son, Adeodatus, by Ambrose. A few months later, on the way home to Hippo with Augustine and Adeodatus, Monica fell ill and died.
Monica could not have known that her prayers and devotion would affect not only the life of her son but also the course of history. Her concern was that her son believe “the truth which is in Jesus.”
This devotion to the spiritual welfare of her son is why Monica is regarded as the model for all Christian mothers. Like Susannah Wesley, her zeal for the salvation of her son had an impact far beyond anything she could have imagined.
But there’s another reason why Monica’s story should resonate with “BreakPoint” listeners and readers. Her concern was not only that her son give up his debauchery, as important as that was. Monica was determined that he embrace the truth of Christianity. She prayed that he would renounce false worldviews and put his sharp mind to the service of Christian truth.
And that’s exactly what he did. Augustine championed the Christian worldview against the false alternatives of his day. Much of what Christians believe today was first and best articulated by Monica’s son. His writings, the Confessions and the City of God, are considered classics, not only of the Christian faith, but also of all of Western culture and civilization. Those books have profoundly shaped me and my ministry.
While there can be only one Monica and Augustine, every Christian mother-and father, for that matter-should be concerned with their kids’ worldviews. Praying for them and teaching them to seek after Christian truth is a solemn duty on our part and a contribution they will always remember, whether it is Mother’s Day or any other day of the year
God Bless the Memory of Chuck Colson!

Which Matters Most?
Posted: 10 May 2012 11:01 PM PDT
As we took communion one Sunday morning, I heard a small boy asking, “What’s that, Daddy?”
The father explained the meaning of the bread. Then he prayed. The boy was quiet until the cup was passed. “What’s that daddy?” His father again explained. Then he prayed.
I chuckled at the colossal task the father was tackling. When I turned to give him a knowing nod, I realized it was David Robinson, NBA basketball player for the San Antonio Spurs. On his lap was his six-year-old son. Less that 24 hours earlier David had led the Spurs in scoring in a playoff game. In 24 hours he’d be doing the same in Phoenix. But sandwiched between nationally televised, high-stakes contests was David, the dad—-explaining communion to David, the son.
Which matters most? What will make the biggest difference? Watching his dad play basketball or hearing him whisper a prayer?
I Just love the devotionals of Fullnessonline…….

Apostle/Prophet Vaughn Newman, Ras Robinson and others will minister and pray prayers healing, deliverance, impartation and revelation. Prepare for your personal words. Read below as to how you can prepare for tonight. See “From My Heart to Yours” for instructions.
May 11, 2012. This is the very day of My revelation. Light from Heaven will shine upon you. Things that have been dark sayings and observations will be revealed as not from Me. There has been a fog generated by the world, flesh and the devil to block from you the light. I say unto you this day, prepare your heart for the good things I am about to do for you and to you. Spend significant time in prayer and meditation today. Put your heart in the mode of childlikeness. Open that big, good and wonderful heart of yours. Swing wide the gate to the revelation that will be shining on you like a strobe spot light. Humble yourself and set your mind and soul to believe as never before. At this moment you would not believe what I am about to do. Stand in the gap for yourself and others. Believe in and trust the Lord your God. Receive the personal prophecies.
Habakkuk 1:5 (NASB) “Look among the nations! Observe! Be astonished! Wonder! Because I am doing something in your days- You would not believe if you were told.” Ras Robinson

May 11, 2012. Something has been difficult for you to learn. You’ve already been shown how to do it, but don’t want to ask again. This makes you feel stupid. You think you should have already learned, and are embarrassed to ask again. Others understand you more than you think. They were once there. Yes, I know some judge, but they most always judge. Don’t worry about them. People have different ways of learning different things. This is something you haven’t learned quickly. This is the way I have made you. Don’t fret over this. I am sending someone to help who learns and teaches like you do. You will one day excel.
Romans 8:1-2 (NLT) “So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death.” Bev Robinson

May 11, 2012. My servant David had a wonderful grasp of who I AM. His writings, meditations, and prayers in Psalm 119 paint an excellent picture of what I AM through My Word. Here are some of his prayers to Me and how My Word ministered to him. My Word keeps you from sinning, revives you and strengthens you. My Word establishes you, brings salvation, gives answers and gives life. My Word is merciful, keeps you, gives hope, settles you, tastes sweet, is a lamp and light, upholds you, gives understanding, directs your steps, is pure. My Word brings hope; My Word revives you; My Word brings deliverance to you. My Word is yours.

I’m going to be with Dewey this afternoon on his radio show. He wants me to talk to you about something that’s VERY important to your health; actually it’s VERY critical to you, your loved ones, your friends, your co-workers…to everyone who knows you. We’ll be talking about an article from the latest Newsweek magazine where on its cover is a photo of a blue-eyed baby holding French fries with the headline, “When I Grow Up, I’m Going to Weigh 300 Lbs. Help!”
That’s for this afternoon, but for now I need to address something that’s related to that which is an early warning sign to tell you if you are at HIGH risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, stroke, depression, and cancer.
I want you to do this quick test to see if you suffer from this potentially DANGEROUS situation.
1) Stand facing a mirror
2) Turn sideways
3) Look in the mirror at your belly
If your belly sticks out, protruding over your pant-line, you may have a VERY dangerous situation developing that you need to take immediate action on.
Belly Fat Isn’t Just Embarrassing, it’s Downright Dangerous!
While belly fat may be a visual annoyance, an inconvenience, or even an embarrassment, it’s actually something MUCH WORSE.
The wider your waistline and belly get, the more deep-hidden belly fat you develop around your organs – something called visceral or intra-abdominal fat – which is linked to high cholesterol, high insulin, high triglycerides and high blood pressure.
What’s worse, research published in the New England Journal of Medicine that looked at more than 350,000 people found that those with belly fat have a higher risk of DYING compared to their peers without a spare tire.
Not only is this fat dangerous, but for many of us, it’s hidden – out of sight – without us even knowing it. In fact, most people don’t know how MUCH hidden belly fat they have because the only truly accurate way to know that is with a expensive CT or MRI scans.
Sure, if you’re overweight you’re much more likely to have this fat, but even NORMAL weight people can have too much.
This helps to explain why as you age, that scale just keeps going up and up, even though your face and arms and legs may look the same – you are steadily and quietly and adding slabs of this dangerous, toxic hidden fat.
Which of These Two Fats Do You Have More Of?
Generally speaking you actually have TWO major types of fat, subcutaneous fat and visceral fat.
Subcutaneous fat is located superficially just under the skin and tends to accumulate in the hips, thighs, underarms and butt.
When you pinch you belly, that slab of fat that you are grabbing is the subcutaneous fat – it’s located on the OUTSIDE of your abdominal muscles.
But the visceral fat, on the other hand, is located on the INSIDE of your abdominals, snaking it’s way around your organs and in particular your liver, which as you’ll find out in a second, is one of the keys to why belly fat can increase your risk of heart disease, diabetes…and, yes, premature death.
It’s what makes your pants hard to fit into and what creates a beer belly in men and makes women look like over-sized pears.
While neither subcutaneous nor visceral fat are great to have in excess, it’s the visceral fat that’s proven to be the most dangerous.
In fact, belly fat is much more metabolically and biologically active – it’s a TOTALLY different animal.
“If you put visceral fat in a petri dish and you put subcutaneous fat in a petri dish and stimulate them, the visceral fat will produce a lot more inflammatory molecules that can raise a person’s risk of heart disease and diabetes,” says Tim Church, medical director of the Cooper Institute in Dallas.
So from a physiological standpoint, your belly fat is effectively another organ or gland, producing hormones and other chemical messengers that interact with other parts of your biology.
Except it’s an organ that’s gone ROGUE…it’s like a MONSTER living inside your body, SPEWING out hormones and toxins that increase inflammation and make it difficult for important organs, such as your kidneys and liver, to do their job.
For example, because of how close visceral fat is located to your portal vein – the vein that carries blood from your intestinal area to your liver – the junk that your belly fat monster spews slips into the portal vein and zips RIGHT into your liver.
Some of this junk – extra fatty acids for example – causes your liver to increase the production of LDL cholesterol, which can collect in your arteries, oxidize and become inflamed. This can lead to swelling that narrows the arteries, restricts blood flood, straining your heart and dramatically increasing your risk of a heart attack or a stroke.
And if that wasn’t enough, the extra fat that’s in your liver causes your liver to go crazy and produce way too much glucose (blood sugar). Too much glucose leads to your body blasting out too much insulin, which leads to insulin resistance and eventually type 2-diabetes!
How to Kill Excess Belly Fat
So what’s the solution to taming your belly fat monster?
Is it to exercise until you drop? Starve yourself? Go on a low-fat diet? Absolutely NOT!
Exercise is important, but nowhere near what a PROPER diet should be, after all, food is the fuel and if it’s good fuel then good things happen and if it’s bad fuel then really bad things happen. The key is the food you eat or don’t eat. It’s your medicine or it’s your poison…either way it’s your choice.
So what is the best food to eat?
First let me tell you which foods are the worse you could possibly eat. It’s the following foods that puts on the fat and causes you the most problems. And here they are: sugars of any kind, breads and pastas that are processed, and starchy vegetables such as potatoes (it is one of the vegetables that contain starch or carbohydrates in abundance. Our body converts and stores the unused carbohydrates or glucose as body fat). These “big three” foods are THE fattening carbohydrates that you really need to avoid at all costs.
Now, here’s the shocker! The best way to lose weight and keep it off is to eat foods that are rich in animal products — meat, eggs, cheese — along with green leafy vegetables. Your weight will go down when you eat like this, and heart disease and diabetes risk factors will be greatly reduced. I strongly advise that you shop for animal products that are grass fed and your veggies from your local farmer. You’ll want to keep your food sources as free as possible from chemicals. And you’ll want to keep taking your Fish Oil capsules and Vitamin D3 tablets, too.
If you’ve got a question for me, here’s your opportunity to email Dewey and he’ll read them to me on the air this afternoon and I’ll do my best to answer it for you.
Thanks so much Dr. Joe!
