The LORD bless thee, and keep thee:
The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
Num 6:24-26

I woke up early this morning, I thought of Sis Falla who has been a "small still voice" on AFF for a long time now... always offering a word of encouragement and whispering a prayer. I can't count the times that she has blessed me with a story from her rich and blessed life, praying.. fervently praying... for someone in need. I thought of her posts... not one harsh or demeaning word I can remember. Always lifting up, never casting down. Reassuring us that somewhere someone is praying for us. Some might think its odd that she types her prayers (she's one of the few who do), but God hears all prayers of faith, I believe, even those typed on a keyboard. So, in honor of this good sister, I feel that I should type my prayer for her....

"Dear Lord- You know all things. I pray this morning that Your Face will shine upon our sister in the Lord. I pray that during those days when clouds of uncertainty obscure our sisters view of You- that she feel Your graciousness.... When problems make feeling difficult, I pray she will hear your voice as you speak, "Fear not...it is I". When the noise of life drowns out Your Voice, I pray she will smell the fragrance of Your Nearness... But, Lord, at ALL times, I pray she will continue to "... taste and see that the LORD is good:" Psa 34:8 May she be accutely aware of your Presence through her human senses. And, if they were to fail, may she sense your Presence through that sixth sense of faith- resting and trusting in Your Promise to never leave or forsake us. May she be blessed this day and everyday, just as she blesses us this day and everyday. In Jesus Name"

Thank you, Bro. OneAccord and all of you wonderful posters here on this
great forum for your kind and encouraging words today!

Thank you, my dear brother, Crakjak, also for your sweet words.
I love you too!

I have browsed and started to post several times the past two or three
weeks (did post a bit) but due to endeavoring to be sensitive to the Spirit
in other areas, I didn't.

In 2006, through a friend who is an ordained minister, I came in contact with
a sister in Christ, who with her husband, are ministers and pastor a beautiful
group of precious hispanic brothers and sisters in Arizona.

They had invited me in 2007 (wasn't able to go), although my husband and
I drove to the Spanish Conf. in Lufkin,TX last July and met them the same
weekend we were in Houston for Bro. Chosenbyone's rebaptism.

Again in 2008, they asked me to speak at a ladies "Tea Party", in which they have
speakers and a time of fellowship with their ladies. Their men served!

They also invited two dear sisters, both licensed ministers, to speak also. One pastors
in Ft. Worth, Tx and the other one (80 yrs. old) who with her husband, had founded
two churches in over 62 yrs. of ministry. He passed on last Sept.,the day of my brother's
funeral. She sings and plays beautifully, teaches and preaches with wisdom and anointing
but for the most part, doesn't get invited much. She is a hidden treasure.

We three flew to Phoenix on the 18th of May, spoke at the "Tea Party" the next day. On
Sunday we all three spoke again, also Sis. M.H. sang. I gave more of my testimony.

The thread "A Cup of Blessings - The New Testament In His Blood", was what I spoke about
at the "Tea Party".

Sunday, after we spoke, a precious hispanic lady came very hungry and received the Holy
Ghost right away.

This couple who invited us, also took us on Wed. to see the Grand Canyon, which I had
never seen in my 68 yrs. It was so vast and awesome I could hardly take it in!

On Thurs. night we were priviledged to attend the Arizona District Conf. in
Casa Grande,(Bro. Combs church), where Bro. Randy Keyes brought a power-
ful message entitled "Remembering Our Redemption". Afterward, because I
was with four ministers (three of them ladies) I was invited to eat with the
ministers and wives. The ladies had prepared delicious food or them. I was
able to join them by association! LOL!!

This precious sister that invited us is in need of much prayer. She has a pituitary tumor. She
also has a tumor in her small intestine.

Please pray for Sis. Hernandez and her sweet husband. Upon being diagnosed with these tumors
we thought they would want to postpone our coming out to Arizona. They would hear of none
of it! They felt it was the enemy trying to distract.

Please pray for this precious couple! They are pastoring a group of beautiful hispanic brothers
and sisters. There was such a presence of the Holy Ghost in the service and they are worshippers.
They are our brothers and sisters! There is much work for them in this area!

Blessings,

Falla39

LOL!! Sis. Renda,

I think of all my younger siblings as my "children", along with
our six adult children. And 20 grandchildren. After awhile you
just seem to get that mothering spirit! I love it!

I actually thought when Crakjack posted that, that he was your actual brother. Is that a case of him decieving me or of me being as dumb as a box of rocks?


Or is he, in fact your brother? Your sibling? Hey, I never claimed to be the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Now I'm all confused!

Yes, Crakjak is my younger sibling and Bro. Larry is also. There
are eleven of us. Our first sibling to go into another land, crossed
on over last Sept.07. Seven sons and four daughters. We are a
very close family. Loving God and each other!

Well, thank you very much, Sis Falla. I have been "de-confused- ed". I have seen the light and now understand. You do have a rich and godly heritage!

Thank you, dear Sister! Pray you and your Mom are
doing well. Losing a beloved parent/parents is not easy.
Neither is losing a sibling! But God is our Refuge and Strength,
a very present Help in time of trouble!

I love you, Sis. Theresa!

There isn't a woman I know more deserving of honor than Falla39. Personally, MomC (Falla39) has been a gift too wonderful for words.

Thanks be to God for his gift that is too wonderful for words. II Corinthians 9:15

Bro. Scott,

I believe the Lord brought you to mind about something that
was troubling you a couple of weeks ago. I pray things are much
better!
You and your family are dear to me, even though we have never
met in person. So it is with many on this forum. The ones I have
met are very dear also.
