    Bookmark and Share

    Its 4:30 in the morning. Haven’t slept for three nights now. Never knew I could feel such heart-pain. I hurt Lord..I hurt, I hurt, I hurt.

    I hurt for my child evey time I have to look at hurt and tell her I can’t afford her school..don’t know if the church is going to give me a check this month.

    I hurt as I see my wife growing old in front of me....still strong in faith...man I love her..and I wonder how much more of this can she take...and yet she still goes on and on. I hurt Lord, man the heart-pain is killing me.

    I hurt as I look out over my congregation and have come to realize most do not really believe in the truth of the gospel....

    The ole hymn comes back to me now, “Turn your eyes upon Jesus...look full in his wonderful face.....

    Please pray for me, plese pray for each other...its hard for me even to type this as tears are making it hard to see....I hurt Lord....I never knew my heart could feel so much pain.

    Turn your eyes upon Jesus look full in his wonderful face....

    I received this comment on the blog overnight from a very old post here at MMI. Read this young pastors comments and take a moment to pray for him. You can also offer him some encouragement here. Here is his message; and a re-publish of the original post...

      This young pastor has enough hurt and pain without fellow soldiers shooting him in the back with comments about being a “modern pastor.” Call him an “old-fashioned preacher” if you like, but the pain and hurt is still there—most of it at the hands of people who call themselves Christians. In the church we tend to gang up on people who are wounded—and hiding behind super-spirituality does not make the pain go away. Let us instead agree together (a Biblical concept by the way!) to pray for him and encourage him.

      Good evening. O, it is excellent to have a giant’s strength; but it is tyrannous to use it like a giant. Help me! Can not find sites on the: Car purchase 0 finance. I found only this - ford mondeo car finance. The next thing you should do is to shop around for a good car finance that is flexible for all situations online before going into a car dealership so that you are prepared with money in hand in order to make sure that the car you are buying is yours and not the dealers. After settling on a number of possible car finance lenders from which you hope to apply for the car finance, it would be a good idea to ensure the background of the car loans company.
