"Even
though I am a free man with no master, I have become a slave to all
people to bring many to Christ. When I was with the Jews, I lived like a
Jew to bring the Jews to Christ. When I was with those who follow the
Jewish law, I too lived under that law. Even though I am not subject to
the law, I did this so I could bring to Christ those who are under the
law. When I am with the Gentiles who do not follow the Jewish law,[e] I
too live apart from that law so I can bring them to Christ. But I do not
ignore the law of God; I obey the law of Christ.
When I am with those who are weak, I share their weakness, for I want to bring the weak to Christ. Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone, doing everything I can to save some. I do everything to spread the Good News and share in its blessings." 1 Corinthians 9
I do pray that I too am like Paul in this sense. I hope that I have been a slave to all people, in order to bring many to Christ. I'm sure my neighbors over the years have noticed that we don't give candies our on Halloween. They may think that we are cheap, or dislike children. On the other hand, I hope that our good neighborly nature and deeds have won them over. My sacrifices as a mom, wife and member of my community, I pray are only visible to God, for it is only from Him that I can await my reward. I do not seek the praise of any person. I must lay down all my desires and hopes, in order that I may win many to Christ.. Though unrelated, these were my posts today. Please remember the people of Mosul today as the Iraqi army is hopefully able to liberate them from ISIS.

While
Obama and Trudeau are Trick or Treating, the Iraqi soldiers at Mosul/Aleppo
are trying to liberate the city today. Please pray for the thousands of
civillians who are trapped by ISIS with no food or water. The current US
Government has made this nightmare possible. Remember the people of
Iraq in your prayers.
Pragmatists
and Christians vote for Trump. Only Trump is Pro-Life and supports
Israel. I'm Canadian, and wish I could vote, but to me this is a no
brainer. I hate to see Christians stuggle with their vote options, and
CNN capitalize on their turmoil. Trump is 70 yrs old.. be concerned with
Health Care, Obamacare, and his policies, and his desire for peace in
the Middle East. This current government started all the chaos there.
Bless you and be united. We are praying for you.
