August 25th, Saturday evening:  Today as I was driving to the church I looked out my car window and saw the Flying J truck station!  At that moment the Spirit of God told me to GO tell the truckers about Joplin and Volunteer Village!  My mind was saying, "A lady at a truck stop, kind of different" but my spirit said GO!  Wisdom tells us in the gospels to go two by two!  I picked up a new lady friend at ALC and we went praying to the Flying J.  The parking lot was full with trucks so we just waited for truck driver get in and out from their trucks.  We than made our approach, shared our story and gave them information about Joplin still needing volunteers to come help our city!  We were so welcomed and many said they would get on their radios to spread the word!  They have come to our city many times to fuel and rest but did not know that people still needed help!  The funniest part of our journey was when we walked into the TV lounge room and many were watching TV.  I waited for the commercial and jumped in front of the TV to have a very captive audience. They welcomed us  and had many questions!  I felt like a fool for Jesus but I hope it brings much fruit for Joplin and the people I love!  Obeying God is fun so listen to him and enjoy the adventure!  GO, GO, GO harvest time is all the time!  In His Service, Judy
Share you love for Christ to others, you can do it, you have eternal life to offer, you have the answer, you have the truth!  Go into all the world and preach!  Some will plant, some will water but God will get the increase!  I rather have the rejection of a man/woman than people not hearing and going to hell!   LOVE is when you tell about your savior and the free gift He has given to all!  Church follow the Holy Spirit, let Him give you the words to a man/woman's heart and share the new birth!  I declare 2012 a year of one on one evangelism in the city streets, market places, houses and yes even truck stops!  He loves the just and the unjust! LOVE enough to talk about Jesus!

August 24th 2012  Friday
Each day is a gift from God even when we have struggles!  A man in our church once told me, " Everyday is a good day, some are just a little better than others."   Think about this!  Set time for God everyday for he longs to talk with you!  Follow Him every moment of the day being aware of the Holy Spirit inside of you!  Remember we need each other to be the "Body of Christ" on the earth.  Let God have your day, let God make your way, let the greatness, wisdom, love, peace, grace and mercy flow out of you.
Too much of our thoughts are spent on our troubles not the promises of God!  Open yourself to Him and stop saying no to what seems impossible for you to accomplish!  If God has put an idea, vision, or dream in your heart ask Him what the next step should be!  If you ask for wisdom...you have wisdom to move out for Him.  The word I have is greater, greater, greater!  Let His greatness flow out of you to others and all that He has asked you to do!  Faith is a requirement to establish Big things!  Trusting in the greatness of the Holy Spirit in you!  Start acting on the great things He has told you to do!  Let your vision, dream begin!  Many think, many have prayed but now is the time to step out and obey!
ALC is calling people back into their place!   The Spirit of God longs for you!  His voice has spoken so many times telling you to come home!  Great things are to be done but yes God has been waiting very patiently on you!  No more reasoning to stay away for His love will embrace you, celebrate you and get you back in your place.  You are not in this earth just to take up space!  I weep for your pain, your loneliness, guilt and shame!  It will be gone in the moment you choose to obey!  He loves you so much but get back with His plan!  Then the fulfillment in your life will be restored!  When you are doing what you came to this earth to do!  He has a reason for the local church!  His body united together, His body not hiding their talents, His body doing huge things in the world, His body winning the lost,  His body making disciples, His body taking care of the needs of one another, His body demonstrating love for Jesus to be lifted up!
We have 10 acres on our campus called to help people!   Many, many more buildings, much more ministry to love our neighbors and strenghten one another in the faith!
Don't fall away, don't fall back....lets take this city for God!  It is the goodness of a man/woman/teen/child that brings a person to repentance!
We have done a lot with so few but now is the time to keep in the press, no time to draw back, keep reaching out for more!  Don't let the enemy take any ground for He hates what we are doing spreading
Jesus all around the nation!
Greater things are on the horizon!  Get in, get blessed and get ready to see God move out of you!  So many lives to touch!  Boldness to share your faith!  He/she that wins souls is wise in God's eye!  Open your mouth it is time to share Jesus with others!  Do you care, do you care, do you care!  Passion for the lost like never before to hit people outside the church door!  You will do the catching, the church will do the cleaning and all in heaven will be singing, rejoicing for God desires all in His Kingdom!

My thoughts to you,

Judy Bjorklund
