Dewey's Daily Cup

Dear KKIM Family,

May the Strength and Peace of the Lord be with you and yours.

After a 14 hour day yesterday we are again at it here at 4am.

We are in day two of our Radio-A-Thon. We wrap it up at 11am today. Please pray for us.

Thanks to Pastor Jim Montoya and pastor Larry Moss for all their help during our Radio-A-Thon for Haiti and Africa. Please go to www.mykkim.com and help out in this effort. We need your help please. You can give right on line. Thank you so much on behalf of the starving children. 94% of your gift goes directly to the starving children.

This is an urgent need as things are worse than ever in Haiti.

On Behalf Of Jesus

Posted: 30 Mar 2010 11:01 PM PDT

“This man has done nothing wrong.” Luke 23:41

Finally someone is defending Jesus. Peter fled. The disciples hid. The Jews accused. Pilate washed his hands. Many could have spoken on behalf of Jesus, but none did. Until now.

Kind words from the lips of a thief. He makes his request. “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom” (Luke 23:42).

The Savior turns his heavy head toward the prodigal child and promises, “Today you will be with me in paradise” (Luke 23:43).

We have this note from my brother Dave Moede of Windom, Minn……….His Mother-in-Law is passing……..

PLEASE PRAY FOR BONNIE,NUMBERS ARE DROPPING.ANYTIME NOW SHE CAN GO TO HEAVEN. EVERYBODY WAS THERE SATURDAY.I GUESS HER ROOM IS NOT DONE YET IN HEAVEN HURRY UP MY LORD.REMEMBER SHE IS A RAMSEY TOUGH AND STUBBORN. THKS FOR THE TIME YOUR BROTHER DAVE.LOVE YA MAN HAVE A GOOD DAY.PEACE

We will be praying Dave…. for you and Denise and Bonnie and all the family………We Love you all!

Let me share this with you and I know Bonnie would appreciate this Minnesota humor……….

The Ten Commandments

(Minnesota Style)

1. Der’s only one God, ya know.

2. Don’t make that fish on your mantle an idol.

3. Cussin ain’t Minnesota nice.

4. Go to church even when you’re up nort.

5. Honor your folks.

6. Don’t kill. Catch and release.

7. There’s only one Lena for every Ole. No cheatin.

8. If it ain’t your lutefisk, don’t take it

9. Don’t be braggin bout how much snow ya shoveled.

10. Keep your mind off your neighbor’s hotdish.

Let us pray……..

Lord, May we lean on Your bosom, Lord God, Knowing that we find in You compassion, sympathy, redemption, and faithful love. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!

Dear KKIM Family,

May the Peace and Strength of the Lord be with you and yours!

Many complain, few work and pray toward a solution.

Pray on this………..This is a part of our theme for today…….

Jesus can not light our path, if we stay within the for walls of the church.

I am in awe of what the Lord is doing……….

“Enlarge the place of your tent,

And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare;

Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes.

For you shall expand to the right and to the left,

And your descendants will inherit nations.

And make the desolate cities inhabited. Isaiah 54:2-3

This is what the Lord is doing to our Ministry, KKIM, the CUP and at the Los Lunas Church of God.

After hearing last week that more and more folks from Canada are listening to our streaming audio at www.mykkim.com That makes sense as Canada is sure changing……More listeners in Egypt and Africa.

This is all the doings of the Lord……..we are just trying not to do anything stupid.

It would be a much better world if more would wake up everyday and make the promise of trying not to do anything stupid! Very simple stuff!

Reading the Word of God each morning and during the day and praying constantly also helps us fight the flesh. That is what we call putting the Armor of God on each day.

I have to share with you a life changing time for me………….

Our Web master here at the CUP, Jannetta LaMort is the Dir of PR at the Albuquerque Rescue Mission. She invited me to take part in the Feet washing at the Mission on Saturday for the homeless, saying. “Dewey we would like you to be one of the Pastor’s to Minister to the homeless at this.”

We have been asking for donations of socks and shoes for this event. Such a great response from the KKIM family! Thank you!

Some KKIM Listeners traveled over 100 miles to drop of their donations. By the way we are still taking in shoes and socks.They are much needed.

Here are my thoughts on Saturday from my experience at the Albuquerque Rescue Mission……..Oh Lord lead my writing here……..

I was asking the Lord as I walked up to the door of the Mission to give me the words to say to the homeless

Shame on me……….I have never been to a homeless facility

My brother Daryl was homeless for some 8 years

I was given the duty to take a clip board and paper and write down the name of those who didn’t get shoes………

I took their names and sizes………

I looked into their eyes………as they got in line………….

They were so eager for good shoes and clean socks………..

It has been a rough winter here in New Mexico

It broke my heart to hear the stories of these folks……..

ages from 23 to 72

some had not been able to clean themselves for weeks……

some were sick………

some had beer on their breath………

some just plain hard luck………..

most men that I talked to were either divorced or Vietnam Vet’s

I kept thinking…Lord there is such a disconnect with these folks and society

Society in our big homes……..big cars………..It is easy to dismiss the homeless as people you cannot help

I prayed with them all……….

some asked for more prayer

some asked for a Bible

I kept asking myself what would you do Jesus?……….

He said to me look them right in the eye and talk and pray with them……….tell them they are loved

I need to tell you today, like I told Sharon I will never be the same after this experience.

I went outside afterwards to leave………

Across the street were four men sitting on the sidewalk……..

I went over to these tough looking men……..

They had been barred from the mission they said for bad behavior…….

They were looking over at the mission and those that were getting haircuts, foot washing and shoes and socks…….

I talked to them and they told me their story……….

We prayed together

I just share this story with you………as we must look inside ourselves…….and check and see if there is a disconnect between ourselves and the poorest of the poor.

Is our Ministry reaching out to these folks and touching them or do we avoid them and just quickly dismiss them as a problem we just do not want to deal with?

Do we continue to build walls up as a Church?….a true Church does not have walls. Why do many Church’s spend so much money on facilities? What would Jesus do?

Is Jesus pleased with all the money that is spent on Church buildings?

I would rather put up a HUGE sheet metal building with many, many beds a huge kitchen and showers. I am praying about that.

We need to look inside ourselves……In our Church’s…. are we serving ourselves? our needs? or are we expanding our tent and attempting to serve others? Are we doing the Lords Will in all parts of our lives?

I asked myself and prayed to the Lord………..okay now what do I do?

I have given the Mission complete use of KKIM and our web sites to get their messages out

I also am praying about becoming a Chaplin at the Mission.

A major problem in our society is a disconnect between the poor and us

Another major problem is the disconnect between our Government and middle class and poor.

Another disconnect is our politicians and middle class and the poor. Most politicians do not care about the poor and middle class……..they will say almost anything to get elected………most say nothing of substance. Most are wealthy and cannot relate to a lot of us.

I am tired of Politicians who appear at events just to have their picture taken…photo opp’s! Or asking me for free announcements for their campaign. I am getting many calls asking for free time!

What can we do?…………The Lord has put it on my heart……..Read His word……….pray…………for His will to be done in your life……..Just don’t complain……The Lord will tell you what to do if you will listen……..walk closer to the Lord………

Expand your territory………but you can’t do that without the Lord………It has to be His Will.

Read the verse again at the top of this post Isaiah 54: 2-3

Look inside yourself today and ask the Lord if He is pleased

The other thing that took place this weekend is the movie, “Amish Grace” It was on Lifetime last night. I wrote about it last week. I pray that you were able to watch it!

Could you forgive the killer?

Google…….Lancaster County Amish School shootings…………to find out more about this incredible true story of forgiveness.

Many of us are faithful 2 our ideas about Jesus Christ, but how many of us are faithful 2 Jesus Himself? Oswald Chambers……..

I have given us all a lot to think and pray about………..

May the Lord be with you all and may you pray about all what I shared this morning with you my Brothers and Sisters in Christ.

First the first time since March 3rd I am sleeping the whole night and it seems my allergies are under control. Thank you all for your payers and love. Gretchen and Lars are doing much better also.

Please keep our Radio-A-Thon in your prayers….please pray about taking part for the poorest of the poor……..go to www.mykkim.com and find out how you can take part. Our radio-A-Thon starts Tuesday morning and goes through Wed. morning.

In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
