"I am carrying my voice
I am carrying my heart
I am carrying my rhythm
I am carrying my prayers
But you can't kill my spirit
It's soaring and it's strong
Like a mountain
I'll go on and on
But when my wings are folded
The brightly colored moth
Blends into the dirt into the ground" - Paula Cole , Me
"My life is a constant choice bad or good I am responsible for my own fate."
"Remy "Don't begin by traveling to some far-off place to convince . And don't try to be dramatic by tackling some public enemy.
Remy Go to the lost, confused people right here in the neighborhood.
Remy Tell them that the kingdom is here its in their hands
Remy Bring health to the sick. Raise the dead. ((you know what I mean, not some magical fluff) Touch the untouchables. Kick out the demons. Remy You have been treated generously, so live generously.
Remy Don't think you have to put on a fund-raising campaign before you start.
You don't need a lot of equipment. You are the equipment, and all you need to keep that going is three meals a day. Travel light.
Remy When you enter a town or village, don't insist on staying in a luxury inn. Get a modest place with some modest people, and be content there until you leave.
Remy When you knock on a door, be courteous in your greeting.
Remy If they welcome you, be gentle in your conversation.
Remy If they don't welcome you, quietly withdraw. Don't make a scene. Shrug your shoulders and be on your way.
Remy You can be sure that on Judgment Day they'll be mighty sorry--but it's no concern of yours now.
Remy "Stay alert. This is hazardous work I'm assigning you. You're going to be like sheep running through a wolf pack, so don't call attention to yourselves. Be as cunning as a snake, inoffensive as a dove.
Remy "Don't be naive. Some people will impugn your motives, others will smear your reputation--just because you believe in me.
Remy Don't be upset when they haul you before the civil authorities. Without knowing it, they've done you--and me--a favor, given you a platform for preaching the kingdom news!
Remy And don't worry about what you'll say or how you'll say it. The right words will be there;
the Spirit of your Father will supply the words.
Remy "When people realize it is the living God you are presenting and not some idol that makes them feel good, they are going to turn on you, even people in your own family.
Remy There is a great irony here: proclaiming so much love, experiencing so much hate! But don't quit. Don't cave in. It is all well worth it in the end.
Remy It is not success you are after in such times but survival. Be survivors! Before you've run out of options, the Son of Man will have arrived.
Remy "A student doesn't get a better desk than her teacher. A laborer doesn't make more money than his boss.
Remy Be content--pleased, even--when you, my students, my harvest hands, get the same treatment I get. If they call me, the Master, 'Dungface,' what can the workers expect?
Remy "Don't be intimidated. Eventually everything is going to be out in the open, and everyone will know how things really are.
Remy So don't hesitate to go public now.
Remy "Don't be bluffed into silence by the threats of bullies. There's nothing they can do to your soul, your core being. Save your fear for God, who holds your entire life--body and soul--in his hands.
Remy "What's the price of a pet canary? Some loose change, right? And God cares what happens to it even more than you do.
Remy He pays even greater attention to you, down to the last detail--even numbering the hairs on your head!
Remy So don't be intimidated by all this bully talk. You're worth more than a million canaries.
Remy "Stand up for me against world opinion and I'll stand up for you before my Father in heaven.
Remy If you turn tail and run, do you think I'll cover for you?
Remy "Don't think I've come to make life cozy. I've come to cut--
Remy make a sharp knife-cut between son and father, daughter and mother, bride and mother-in-law--cut through these cozy domestic arrangements and free you for God.
Remy Well-meaning family members can be your worst enemies.
Remy If you prefer father or mother over me, you don't deserve me. If you prefer son or daughter over me, you don't deserve me.
Remy "If you don't go all the way with me, through thick and thin, you don't deserve me.
Remy If your first concern is to look after yourself, you'll never find yourself. But if you forget about yourself and look to me, you'll find both yourself and me.
Remy "We are intimately linked in this harvest work. Anyone who accepts what you do, accepts me, the One who sent you. Anyone who accepts what I do accepts my Father, who sent me.
Remy Accepting a messenger of God is as good as being God's messenger. Accepting someone's help is as good as giving someone help. This is a large work I've called you into, but don't be overwhelmed by it. It's best to start small.
Remy Give a cool cup of water to someone who is thirsty, for instance. The smallest act of giving or receiving makes you a true apprentice. You won't lose out on a thing." " Jesus , Matther 10
