It is my belief that we Christians depend too much on what an individual pastor or an individual prophet or another anointed person thinks that he (or she) is hearing from the Lord, rather than trying to hear for ourselves or listening to many different voices from all over the Body of Christ. Dependence on just an anointed few is a guaranteed recipe for failure.
So, each day, I invite you to write what you believe the Lord is telling you, showing you, or doing for you. Testimonies. Short teachings. Prophetic words. Scriptures. Prayers. Whatever you believe that the Body of Christ needs to know or will be blessed by hearing. Try to keep your words under 250 words. And if you need to, attach a link to your site for longer messages.

…remember the poor…(Galatians 2:10)
Last night, I was approached by a woman asking for money to help her provide a better Christmas for her young son. She was selling “Frosty the Snowman” pins.
To be honest, she did not look impoverished. Her clothes were not that bad, and she did not appear famished in any way whatsoever, but I’m sure – in her mind – she considered herself a poor person. Why? Because she could not provide her young son with an Xbox or a Game boy or some other type of expensive toy.
This incident reminded me of Larry Elder’s column in WND:

In the article, Elder compares what we Americans define as poor to the “dehumanizing poverty” of India. He states that the “poorest rundown shack in Appalachia looks like a honeymoon suite at the Bellagio” compared to what these Indians live in.
Think just how awesome America is. Our poor people are considered rich in most of the other nations of the world. Wow!
But as the Lord once explained to me, “The most important person that you need to minister to is the one standing in front of you, not the one thousands of miles away.”
The woman had hurting eyes. So, I reached into my billfold and bought a pin.
