      When we honored our fathers yesterday, one-fourth of the children in the US had little reason to celebrate. They don’t live with their fathers. “We have a generation of men who are not in the home,” a national pastor said. “They are like the abominable snowman—their footprints are all around, but they can’t be found.” Listen to this brief recording that addresses a topic mentioned very infrequently in our culture! Fatherlessness!
      1. The New Jerusalem, which is also called the Tabernacle of God, the Holy City, the City of God, the Celestial City, the City Foursquare, and Heavenly Jerusalem, is literally heaven on earth. It is referred to in the Bible in several places (Galatians 4:26; Hebrews 11:10; 12:22–24; and 13:14), but it is most fully described in Revelation 21. Listen to some comments about our future home recorded recently!
        1. PAUL HARVEY'S LETTER TO HIS GRANDCHILDREN We tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse. For my grandchildren, I'd like better. I'd really like for them to know about hand me down clothes and homemade ice cream and leftover meat loaf sandwiches.. I really would. I hope you learn humility by being humiliated, and that you learn honesty by being cheated. I hope you learn to make your own bed and mow the lawn and wash the car. And I really hope nobody gives you a brand new car when you are sixteen. It will be good if at least one time you can see puppies born and your old dog put to sleep. I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in. I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother/sister. And it's all right if you have to draw a line down the middle of the room, but when he wants to crawl under the covers with you because he's scared, I hope you let him. When you want to see a movie and your little brother/sister wants to tag along, I hope you'll let him/her. I hope you have to walk uphill to school with your friends and that you live in a town where you can do it safely. On rainy days when you have to catch a ride, I hope you don't ask your driver to drop you two blocks away so you won't be seen riding with someone as uncool as your Mom. If you want a slingshot, I hope your Dad teaches you how to make one instead of buying one. I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books. When you learn to use computers, I hope you also learn to add and subtract in your head. I hope you get teased by your friends when you have your first crush on a boy / girl, and when you talk back to your mother that you learn what ivory soap tastes like. May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on a stove and stick your tongue on a frozen flagpole. I don't care if you try a beer once, but I hope you don't like it... And if a friend offers you dope or a joint, I hope you realize he/she is not your friend. I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your Grandma/Grandpa and go fishing with your Uncle. May you feel sorrow at a funeral and joy during the holidays. I hope your mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through your neighbor's window and that she hugs you and kisses you at Christmas time when you give her a plaster mold of your hand. These things I wish for you - tough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness. To me, it's the only way to appreciate life.
          1. There were several people in the Pharisees house the night the sinful woman came rushing in. Several others who were casually sitting around the table, in the presence of the Creator.... In the presence of Manifested Love, sitting face to face with the Savior of the world. Yet, this one woman was the one who really saw Him, and threw herself at His feet. What did she see, that the others didn't see? What caused her heart to know Him? They were all in His Presence. They were all there with Him. Yet her heart was open. And she saw. There were several thousand people standing in the desert that day as the cloud came up on the mountain.... But only Moses went into the cloud instead of shrinking back. What was in Moses that caused him to go forward and not back? There were several others in the boat with Peter that day. There were others that saw Jesus walking on the water. What was in Peter that made him get out of the boat to move towards Jesus? What made him even think He could walk on water? What was in Joshua and Caleb that made them say 'we got this!' when all the others only saw the giants? What was in Simon and Andrew to drop everything and follow this man after He spoke just one simple sentence? What was in Zacchaeus to instantly turn his life upside down at the very idea of Jesus coming to his home? They saw Him. They saw with different eyes. They looked with their heart, not their head. They saw with their spirit... Not just the flesh. They had eyes to see...... Holy Spirit, my prayer today is that we will have eyes to see. We will pause and look deeper. I ask you to help us truly see each other...like You see us. I pray we will have eyes to see You in every passing moment Copyright © 2015 Akouo Missions, Inc., All rights reserved.

              We all know a lot about God. We know lots of Scriptures. We use all the right words when we are around others so they will know we are "IN!" But what about all those around us who don't know God. Can we go from knowing about God to really knowing God and then helping others to also? Listen to this modern day parable and some compelling thoughts recorded recently.
              1. Is God to be feared? Is He a stern disciplinarian just waiting for us to mess up? Or is there a deeper meaning to the Fear of the Lord? Take a few minutes and listen to these comments recorded recently about The Fear of The Lord.
