Our Special Visitor

Passage Romans 1:16-25:
    ¹⁶I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. ¹⁷For in the gospel a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith."

I was visited today by the person who is going around our community leaving really long and inappropriate comments on our posts.  I know this has been something really frustrating for some of us, but I would like to take this time to ask you to please join me in prayer for this person. 

^{Passage Philippians 1:18:
18But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice.}

I deleted the comment, but did skim through it to see what this persons frame of mind is.  In reading it, I felt this person was in a lot of pain and suffering so much.  I could not imagine someone writing the things he/she wrote without having suffered and suffering now.  I truly feel sorry for this person.  It is so obvious this person needs JESUS and the salvation He offers in his/her life and I feel this is a way his/her spirit is crying out for the Lord. 

Passage Luke 1:69-79:
    ⁶⁹He has raised up a horn of salvation for us
      in the house of his servant David
    ⁷⁰(as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),
    ⁷¹salvation from our enemies
      and from the hand of all who hate us—
    ⁷²to show mercy to our fathers
      and to remember his holy covenant,
    ⁷³the oath he swore to our father Abraham:
    ⁷⁴to rescue us from the hand of our enemies,
      and to enable us to serve him without fear
    ⁷⁵in holiness and righteousness before him all our days.
    ⁷⁶And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
      for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
    ⁷⁷to give his people the knowledge of salvation
      through the forgiveness of their sins,
    ⁷⁸because of the tender mercy of our God,
      by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven
    ⁷⁹to shine on those living in darkness
      and in the shadow of death,
   to guide our feet into the path of peace."

 One good thing is that it is obvious that this person is reading through our posts before leaving his/her comment.  This means that although the inappropriate comments are being left, his/her heart is still being planted with the seeds from our Lord.  My only regret is the times that I have written where to find a scripture instead of writing out the whole scripture.  Something for us to think about because you never know who is reading through our posts.  This would be a good time for us besides edifying each other in the Lord and supporting each other in our homeschooling journey to also take the opportunity to write out the scripture the Lord gives us for each situation.  In doing this we are also spreading the Lord's Gospel and planting seeds for those who either have not heard it or have the blinds pulled over there eyes.  You never know, you might be the tool the Lord uses to open their eyes.

I hope you will join me in praying for this person and add them to your prayer lists.

May the Lord Bless and Keep you in His Glory.
