Glimps From The Lighthouse Issue: #15

Dear Friends in Christ,
Hello! I hope you all are doing great! I am! :) We have had soo much snow this week (I know, Katie.... you can laugh if you want!) But anyway, we are doing well. :) I have been busy and I'm sorry I haven't done a newsletter in awhile, but I'll try to do better! It goes faster now and it's a lot easier because I recently discovered (TA DA!) copying & pasting! I don't really know why I didn't know about that before, and those of you who are technically oriented might laugh at me, but oh well. =) I'm glad I finally discovered that nice tool! :) Oh, I want to thank all of you who sent in submissions! I had a lot this time, thank you sooo much!! :)Well, everyone, have a most wonderful week, and may God richly bless you till we meet again!! :)
Much Love,
~Heather

Theme Verse~

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation

hath appeared to all men, teaching us that,

denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,

we should live soberly, righteously, godly,

in this present world,

looking for that blessed hope, and the

glorious appearing of the great God

and our Saviour Jesus Christ,

Who gave Himself for us, that He might

purify us and redeem unto Himself

a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Titus 2:11-14



Study::
~Righteousness~


'The righteous Lord loveth righteousness; His countenance doth behold the upright.' Psalms 11:7. God is righteous, His character is righteous, His kingdom is righteous, and His children will be righteous too! Righteousness will be given to us by God; we have none of our own, but when God's character is perfected in us, His perfect righteousness covers us. :) Revelation 19:7-8 says 'The marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.' God's entime church will wear a robe of righteousness. :)

Zephaniah 2:3 tells us to 'seek righteousness.' Righteousness is like God's reward for His faithful children. We are not perfect now, but we will be! I love 2 Timothy 4:8: 'Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing.' A crown of righteousness! I like that thought. =)

You know, the Bible talks about the way of righteousness (2 Peter 2:21), the ministry of righteousness (2 Corinthians 3:9), the armor if righteousness (2 Corinthians 6:7), the hope of righteousness by faith (Galatians 5:5), the fruits of righteousness (Philippians 1:11), a crown of righteousness (previously mentioned - 2 Tim. 2:21), a scepter of righteousness (Hebrews 1:8), the Law of righteousness (Romams 9:31), and the King of righteousness (Heb. 7:2) Anyway I thought that was neat! I like lists, and I'd never seen that before.... anyway.

I love this Steps to Christ quote: 'Since we are sinful, unholy, we cannot perfectly obey the holy Law. We have no righteousness of our own with which to meet the claims of the law of God. But Christ has made a way of escape for us! He lived on earth amid trials and temptations such as we have to meet. He lived a sinless life. He died for us, and now He offers to take our sins and give us His righteousness! If you give yourself to Him, and accept Him as your Saviour, then, sinful as your life may have been, for His sake you are accounted righteous. Christ's character stands in place of your character, and you are accepted before God just as if you had not sinned!'
Steps to Christ, page 62. :)

May we all be found righteous in the end!! =)

Praises/Prayer Answers

'Coaching Gymnastics the first day was like a nightmare; I had NO IDEA what I was doing! They put me to help-coach a class thatwas higher than I am certified to coach, and I was so clueless. I didn’ttell my boss anything, but only prayed to God, asking Him to change myassignment to a rec. class, one with less “choreography”, so tospeak, if it was His will. He had allowed me to be placed with the advancedgymnasts, and He had a plan. The next Wednesday I walk in to the gym, preparedfor a second nightmare, still praying within, and lo and behold, the Seniorcoach told me, so I could use my skills better, that he had moved me to the recclass!!!! Total answer to a request that only my Father knew. God is sowonderful.'
~Jessica Carvajal. :)

Angela wants to praise God for giving her the opportunity to have a part in teaching others about Him!


Book Review by Jessica Carvajal

Jack, An Incredible Life,by Jolena Taylor King.

From birth ‘till latest event, thecreation of The Clear Word, Jack Blanco’s life is a must-read. He growsup in the US,for the first about 9 years of his life. On a visit with his mother to Germany to meethis grandparents, his mother decides life would be much better for him there. Sheplanned to see him in a year, yet their plans were abruptly interrupted by theHitler movement. When he plans to follow higher education…the incrediblehappens! This is just the beginning of what God saw him through to woo Him,with loving tenderness, as the Bible says, to Himself. As you read, brace yourselffor some sad goodbyes, and prepare to embark on a life that reveals the beautyof God.

Poem


Submitted by Ashley Kanomata


Help Others

If any word of mine
My make a life the brighter,
If any little song of mine
May make a heart he lighter,
God help me speak that little word
and take my bit of singing,
And drop it in some lonely vale
To set he echoes ringing

If any little care of mine
May make a friends the fleeter,
If any lift on mince may ease
The burden of another,
God give me love and care and strength
To help my toiling brother.
~Auther Unknown~


Yes, we serve a mighty God;
He made the tiny bean pod:
He created the starry sky;
He made the butterfly:
He spoke and there were hills;
and lovely birds with their bills:
And he also made the dew;
But best of all He made YOU:
Thank you for being my friend!!
~By Angela DeRose


All right, God bless you all!!! Have a wonderful day!
Love Heather



'Fear thou not; for I am with thee:
Be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee;
Yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand
of My righteousness.'
~Isaiah 41:10~

Sent with much love from your friend in Christ,

Glimpse From the Lighthouse Issue#14

Dear Friends in Christ,
Hello! How are you all? I'm doing well! I have been busy since I sent the last newsletter, but doing good! =) I hope the same for you. :) We haven't had much more snow so that is good! (in my opinion anyway! My sister would disagree!) I have had a good year so far, and I hope all of you have too! I think 2008 will be great. :) Well, may God bless you all, and have a safe and happy week!!! :)
Much love,
~Heather~

we should live soberly, righteously, godly,

in this present world,

looking for that blessed hope, and the

glorious appearing of the great God

and our Saviour Jesus Christ,

Who gave Himself for us, that He might

purify us and redeem unto Himself

a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Titus 2:11-14

Study: Living for Christ

God has put us here on earth for a little while, and though the world is dark and sin-filled, He does not leave us alone. He is always with us, and He gives us power to live for Him and to fight Satan!

Romans 14:8 says: 'For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.' We are to live 'unto the Lord'! I found a few other principles for our Christian living:

'...We shall live with Him [Christ] by the power of God...' 2 Corinthians 13:4

We are to 'live in peace.' 2 Corinthians 13:11

'The just shall live by faith.' Galatians 3:11
We 'should live unto righteousness' 1 Peter 2:24
We should 'live honestly' Hebrews 13:18
And we should live 'in the Spirit' of God! Galatians 5:25

So as Christian young people, we are to live
~unto the Lord
~with Christ by the power of God
~in peace
~by faith
~unto righteousness
~honestly
~and in the Spirit of God!

When we are living for Christ, Satan will assail us. But, God is on our side, and with His help, Satan will NOT be victorious! Great Controversy, page 510, says 'The more nearly the Christian imitates the divine Pattern, the more surely will he make himself a mark for the attacks of Satan.'
Satan doesn't want us to walk with God and live for Him. He will try to dissuade us.
BUT - 'Satan assailed Christ with his fiercest and most subtle temptations, but he was repulsed in every conflict. Those battles were fought in our behalf! Those victories make it possible for us to conquer. Christ will give strength to all who seek it. No man without his own consent can be overcome by Satan. The tempter has NO power to control the will or to force the soul to sin. He may distress, but he cannot contaminate. He can cause agony, but not defilement! The fact that Christ has conquered should inspire His followers with courage to fight manfully the battle against sin and Satan.'
From Great Controversy, page 510.

Jesus says: 'And lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.' Mt. 28:20. =)


Prayer Requests:
Katie requests prayer for one of her friends who is having a hard time with one of his courses in school.
Please pray for the rest of us, that we will grow closer to Jesus this year than ever before, and that we will all remain faithful.

I think that is all for this time, sorry I don't have any poems!! :(

And now, friends, may God bless you
As you go on your way.
And by God's grace I'll meet you
On heaven's shore some day!!

Love, Heather :)

Dear Friends in Christ,

Hi! I hope you all are doing well! I am really, really sorry I haven't done a newsletter in such a long time! I've been busy, and it was kind of in the back of my mind, but I didn't take the time to do it. Sorry! I thought I should do one now. I hope you all had a good new year and holiday season! It was wonderful to meet some of you at GYC! That was such a blessing... and I wish all of you could have gone! :) Well, everyone, have a great day and God bless you abundantly!!

Much love,

Heather

P.S. Any contributions are welcome!! :) But no pressure. :)

Number 13 January 9, 2008!

Theme Verse:

Now the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, godly, in this present world; looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

~Titus 2:11-14

Study: 'The Promises of God'
God is so good. I know, trials do come, but they are for a reason, and God works everything out for the best. =) God is very faithful to His children. Romans 8:28(one of my favorite verses) says 'And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.' God has a purpose for us, and He will take care of us until that purpose has been fulfilled. :)
God has many promises for us in the Bible. And when God has promised something, it will be done, because He cannot go back on His word! ~Isaiah 55:11: So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Sometimes a promise or a prayer will seem impossible, but God can find a way, if we only trust Him! Think of Abraham and Isaac. Abraham didn't know how God would fulfill His promise of 'a great nation', but it did happen! God is faithful.
Here are a few of my favorite promises!

Isaiah 42:6 ~ I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles.

Isaiah 43:1-3 ~ ...Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, they Saviour...

Jude 24 ~ Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy.

Revelation 2:10 (my signature =)) ~ Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

Revelation 2:7 ~ ... To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. And Rev. 21:7 ~ He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son.

Prayer Requests:

Please pray for my foster brother, Tristan. Thanx!!

I don't think we have any others this time. So, just pray for everybody!

Poem:

'Jesus is the Reason for the Christmas Season'

Jesus is the reason

For the Christmas season.

Jesus so humble and lowly

Came down to this world so dark and lonely.

To show us how to treat others

As though they were our own brothers.

So Jesus is the reason

For the Christmas season.

Why not give the world a little seasoning of God's love

To the world at Christmas, a gift from above.

By Desiree Andrews.

I am sorry it didn't get in before Christmas.... now it's January, but oh well! Sorry Des! But the poem still has a good message. :)

Goodbye and God bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love,

Heather

Glimpse From The Lighthouse Issue #12

Dear Friends in Christ,
Hello! I hope you are all doing well! I'm sorry it's taken a long time to do this newsletter! In 3 days my family and I are leaving for GYC. I am soooo excited! I actually get to meet quite a few of you there. Anyway, I am looking forward to that soo much! :) I'll be gone December 19-23.
Attention! We have a new section in the newsletter! Katie suggested a 'Praise' section! So, in addition to prayer requests, if any of you have something you want to praise God for and you want me to put it in here, you can send it to me. :) You can also submit poems, stories (that aren't toooo long!!) with a spiritual theme, book reviews about preferably true, 'spiritual' books, prayer requests, etc. :) I welcome contributions!!!!
I wish each of you a wonderful day and week, and may God richly bless you!!

Study
Eternal Life

Eternal life... it's the goal and hope of Christians. It's what we have to live for and strive towards, because if this life, filled with sin and suffering, was all there ever was to look forward to, we wouldn't really have anything to live for! BUT, we as Christians have hope! :)
1 John 2:25 tells us 'And this is the promise that He hath promised us, even eternal life.' God has promised us eternal life! He says in John 17:3, 'And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ Whom Thou hast sent.' Eternal life starts with knowing God.
Eternal life in Heaven is God's reward for His faithful children. He says if we leave everything of this world for Jesus' sake, we will have eternal life (Mark 10:29-31) We may have nothing in this world, and we may have to suffer persecution for our Lord's sake, but our reward will be great in Heaven! :)
I have heard it said that our eternal life can start here on earth. We can start by having a walk with Jesus NOW, and although we do live on a sinful planet, we can experience the peace, joy, and love that Jesus has planned for us. :) A lot of verses in the Bible talk about eternal life as knowing God, etc. Like 1 John 5:20. 'And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ.'
Eternal life in Heaven almost sounds too good to be true! But it can be yours, and mine! We must die to self daily and follow Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. :) He gave His life for us so that we can live forever!
1 Timothy 6:12 - 'Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called.'



Prayer Requests
Des and her brother Patrick
Sarah's Bible study contact, Heather. :)
My Bible study, Patricia
The GYC, that all the young people going will gain a rich blessing!

Praises
Katie says, 'Praise God for giving me the opportunity to go to GYC!'

If any of you have praises that you want to put in here, feel free to send them to me! Thanks!! :)

Poem
'Who for us will go
To a world of woe?
I will search high and low.
Will you go?
There's no time to be slow.
So get up and go!

By Jenny McCluskey. :) Thanks Jenny!!!!


Have a most wonderful and blessed day!!!!
Love,
your friend,
Heather

Much love,

Titus 2:11-14



Study:
The Peace of God

Today's study is about peace. Many people in the world today are searching for peace. They think it is hard, if not impossible, to find true peace and rest in the busy modern world! But really, peace can be yours if you just know where to look. :)
John 14:27 (I love this verse) says 'Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.'
One more, John 16:33! 'These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have over come the world.'

God offers us His peace. His peace is something the world cannot give us; it cannot be found in worldly enjoyments. But in Jesus we find true, lasting peace. (Ephesians 2:14 '...He is our peace...') He says, we will have trials, but His peace can never be taken away.
Isaiah 26:3, another one of my favorite verses, says 'Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee.' When we fix our eyes on Jesus and trust Him with all our problems, He gives us His 'perfect peace.'

Isaiah 55:8-9, 11-12 says... 'For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts higher than your thoughts. ... So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I send it. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.'
I know it's long, but it's a beautiful passage! Jesus' ways and plans are higher than ours; He knows the end from the beginning and He will take our lives and make something beautiful out of them that we never would have thought possible. He can make everything, everything! turn out for good. :)

To Close:
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.'
Numbers 6:24-26

Prayer Requests:
1. Please pray for Des's brother Parick.
2. Please pray for Des and her school.
3. Please pray for some people at Jessica's school who are not Christians and need prayer.
:) Thanks a lot! Also, please pray for me. Thanks everybody. =)

I like this, I saw it on a bumper sticker:

No Jesus, No Peace.
Know Jesus, Know Peace!

All right, everybody! Have a fantastic blessed week and may the Lord richly bless you and your families! :)
Love,
Heather Ann Snyder

Theme Verse:
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men
Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and wordly lusts,
We should live righteously, soberly, and godly, in this present world,

Who gave Himself for us that He might redeem us,
And purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
Titus 2:11-14

Study.....
The Preparation


I'm sure most of you have at some point really looked forward to something. I know I have! You probably thought about it, talked about it, planned and prepared for it.

There is something that we need to be looking for and looking forward to. Titus 2:13 says 'Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.' We as God's endtime people need to be eagerly, earnestly waiting and watching for Jesus' return. It is what we live for and what we look forward to. Jesus' coming will be a wonderful, glorious event. We need to be ready when Jesus comes! We need to ask Him to take away our sin and give us new, clean hearts that will love to obey him. We need to be like Jesus.
When we are living for Jesus, and looking forward to His return, we will want to hasten his coming. We can do this by telling others about Him. We can share Jesus' love and salvation with others, and then they can be ready too, when He comes. When the gospel message has gone to the whole world, then Jesus can come.

There is a story about two girls who were invited to go on a picnic with some of their friends. I'll call the girls Lacey and Emma. They were both excited to go on the picnic, but there were a few things they needed to do in order to go. Their friends had asked them to bring some food along. So they decided that Lacey would make the potato salad and Emma could bake some cookies. On the evening of the picnic, Lacey went down to the kitchen a few hours early and started making her potato salad. Then she ran upstairs to get her clothes ready. When Lacey was all ready, she peeked into Emma's bedroom.
'Don't you need to get started on those cookies?' Lacey asked.
Emma looked up from the book she was reading. 'Oh yes, I guess so. I'll be down in five minutes.'
Lacey went back downstairs to chat with her mother for a few minutes. She glanced at the clock. It was 4:25! They were supposed to get picked up at 5:00. Lacey ran back upstairs to Emma's room. 'Emma! It's 4:30! You really need to make the cookies now!'
But Emma was frantically searching through her closet for something to wear. 'Lacey, I can't make cookies right now! I don't have any clean dresses to wear that don't have a button missing or something! I don't know what to do!'
Lacey sighed. 'Well, you should have done your washing and mending earlier! But don't worry about the cookies, I will make them for you.' Lacey went back down and quickly put some cookies in the oven. While they baked, she eagerly watched out the window for her friends. A little before 5, Lacey was all ready outside, picnic basket in hand. When her friends drove up, she jumped in and they were off! Emma watched from the house with tears in her eyes. But it was too late now. She hadn't prepared for the picnic, so she wasn't ready when her ride came. And she missed out on the fun.

Now you may be thinking, 'That's silly!' She should have gotten ready, and she wouldn't have missed out. But you know many of us are doing the exact same thing. We know that Jesus is coming soon. But we say, 'Oh, there's no hurry. I've got plenty of time to get ready.' We sit back and get distracted with the pleasures of this world. All the time, Jesus' return is getting closer and closer. WE NEED TO BE READY WHEN HE COMES!!!!
We need to give our hearts and our lives to Him and let Him take away our sin. We need to be watching for his coming, his glorious appearing. And we need to tell others about Him so they can be ready too. I don't want to miss out. I want to be ready. What about you? Do you want to be ready when Jesus comes??







Prayer Requests:
Please pray for Emily as she has decisions to make about her school and future, and she wants to make the right choice.

Poem:
This is a poem I found in a little book, and I thought it had a really good message. :) Enjoy!

'EXCUSE ME'

'Speak up for God's truth? Not me,' piped the youth.
'My buddies would laugh me to shame.'
'No way,' chimed the teen, 'I'm leaving the scene.
Don't want to be late for my game.'

'Why me?' groaned the deacon. 'Must I be a beacon?
I fear they will call me a fool.'
'Next time,' pledged the preacher. Then stated the teacher,
'I'm still very busy at school.'

'Who, me?' asked the clerk, coming home from his work.
'I'm tired and deserving a rest.'
'Some day,' shrugged the prof, 'when I take a year off.'
And no one responded with zest.

'I'll go,' pledged the blind, 'and search till I find
A love-hungry person who'll hear.'
'I'll try,' vowed the lame, 'to praise the Lord's Name,
To speak words that comfort and cheer.'

Praise God that the King of Whom mortals sing
Has servants who love Him and share.
What a glorious reward at the feast of the Lord
Will be heaped upon those who are there!

By Fannie L. Houck.
