I happened to mention, once again, to someone in Matshapa that I was looking for a container and he told me that Trans World Radio (TWR) had one that they had been trying to sell for over six months. Talk about lack of communication! Our AIM offices are in the TWR building in Manzini - we are their tenants! Once back at the office I contacted the resident engineer at TWR and he confirmed that they had a container for sale at the "Antenna Farm" situated 35kms from Manzini. The following day the two of use drove out to the farm and after a quick inspection of the container we became its new owners. This was the easy part! The wooden structure that served as a kitchen at Ruby's care point, one of the places where we are feeding children, was in the planning for upgrade early next year, but between Wed, 14 Nov 2007 00:00:00 GMT http://kathycotterrell.myadventures.org/?filename=what-about-those-who-have-not-heard http://kathycotterrell.myadventures.org/?filename=what-about-those-who-have-not-heard How often have I heard people share their feelings about those who have not heard the Gospel of God's saving grace through His Son, the Lord Jesus, that they should be excused for not accepting Him as their Saviour and submitting to His Lordship, and that when they appear before God on the day of judgement, He would not hold them responsible for what they did not know, but let us see what God's Word says... " For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead ; SO THAT THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE:" (Romans 1:20). God has, through the ages, spoken to us through various means, for example, nature, creation, people, animals, plants, and many other visible and invisible things that we take completely for granted, for example, the air we breathe!

The answer to this question would depend entirely on whether you believe in God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit, and on your acceptance and belief that the Bible is God's infallible and unchangeable Word, which is still as relevant and profitable today as it was when it was written, and is given to us ". by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works" 2Tim 3:16-17, and " In hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before the world began;." Titus 1:2 Many will say, " Kathy you do not know what you are talking about, the Bible is old hat, not for us and cannot be Wed, 13 Jun 2007 00:00:00 GMT http://kathycotterrell.myadventures.org/?filename=why-must-i-give-tithes-offerings http://kathycotterrell.myadventures.org/?filename=why-must-i-give-tithes-offerings After becoming born again in 1989, it was an immediate thing for me to start giving of what the Lord Jesus blessed me with, even if it meant not having cash flow until His blessings came through. It was not something that I had thought through or something that was hammered into my head, it just seemed the godly things to do and I still believe that it is the godly thing to do after almost 18 years of walking with the Lord Jesus by my side! Through thick or thin, plenty or nothing, and let me tell you, there were many times that I had absolutely nothing, but gave I gave and blessed He has blessed and at time more abundantly than others! To some my testimony might sound blas, but coming out of a lifestyle of making debt, having credit facilities and using them so far beyond their limits that it appeared impossible to ever clear it, and that all just to impress others, I suddenly had this overpowering peace about giving away the money I was earning to an organization Thu, 31 May 2007 00:00:00 GMT http://kathycotterrell.myadventures.org/?filename=do-all-for-jesus http://kathycotterrell.myadventures.org/?filename=do-all-for-jesus Have you ever been confronted by an offended believer and did not know what to say? Do you feel that there might be issues in your life that might be an offense to the Body of Christ and do not know how to deal with it? For many years I lived to satisfy what I thought was my own will, only to find out, at the age of 37, that I was living according to the will of the devil. What is the will of the devil? Satisfying all the desires of our flesh! What does that include? Doing anything to the gratification of self, for example, all forms of addiction whether eating, drinking, buying, smoking, sex, drugs, money and power, placing trust in people, wealth (whether monitory or material), abilities and talents rather than in God. Satisfying all the lusts of my flesh, the lusts of my eyes and the pride of my unregenerated life! Being ruled by intellect, emotions, feelings and the things of this world! But, after accepting the Lord Jesus I learned that "Whether Thu, 26 Apr 2007 00:00:00 GMT
