1 Cor. 12:12-31

The Web of Life is well known among Natives.

* We are all part of the web of life.
**We did not create it,
***we are just merely a strand in it.
****What ever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.

The Word with the Body of Christ...
*We as Christians are all part of the Body of Christ.
1 Cor 12:27 Now you are the body of Christ, and "each one" of you is a part of it.
Gal. 3:26-28 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Eph. 4:15,16
**We did not create the body...
Isa 45:12a It is I who made the earth and created mankind upon it.
Acts 17:25 And He is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because He Himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. Gen. 1:1 Isa. 44:24 Col 1:15-20
*** We as Christians, each and everyone of us, are a part of the body, with Christ being the head. (Col 1:18)
Rom 12:5 so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
1 Cor 12:14 Now the body is not made up of one part but of many. Col 3:15
****Whatever we do to the body, we do to others, including ourselves.
1 Cor 12:26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.
1 Cor 5:6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough?

Whisper...UNITY
Rom 15:5 May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Christ Jesus.
Eph. 4:3-6,15,16 Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

How we ask....Col 3:14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. In Christ and to His glory, Brown Eagle

We must speak straight so that our words may go as sunlight to ones heart. Cochise

Eph. 4:29 Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.



Out back in my garden, sometimes in the spring...I'll move a large stone, and a sprouting daffodil bulb beneath it is bent, stunted, and colorless. But after a few hours of light...I notice it begins to straighten, and will eventually loose the effects of being held down. We too need "a li so qui lv di," a weight or a burden, at times lifted from our shoulders, so we too can grow and thrive in the light,...to reach our full potential in Christ. We have to show a willingness to stand on the "Rock" and not stay beneath it. Whisper.... at times the Lord may use us to move a large stone that is weakening, limiting, or holding down another. Our actions and words need to reflect our faith. (Gal 6:2 Eph. 5:8,9)

What we say...reaches far. Someone is listening for hope, someone is reaching for help - at some time.... it may be us. Black Hawk

Whisper....thank you for the sunlight through Christ this past week. Your sister in Christ, Brown Eagle

***John 1:12,13 Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God-v13 children born not of natural descent nor of human decision or a husbands will, but born of God.

The Cuckoo Birds lay their eggs in nests built by others, and let the other birds raise their young.

I was found abandoned at 9 months. An unwanted baby. But I know many others have also experienced rejection....weather it be in a spouse walking out, a friend who walked away, not fitting into a group, not accepted for who you are. Whatever the reason....rejection hurts....it leaves an open space in ones heart and very soul. The shadows left... whisper out for a need of love.

God, the very creator of the world and man... experienced rejection and sadly, still does today. (John 1:10,11) Isa. 53:3 He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering.

After Saint Vincents Orphanage... I was placed with a family and adopted at the age of six. I'm not the only one adopted....whisper....I was just blessed to be adopted twice. ***Eph. 5:1 He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will. John 14:18...I will not leave you as orphans: I will come to you. ***John 1:12,13

He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you. (Heb 13:5) In Him we were chosen, having been predestined... (Eph 1:11) Nothing will be able to separate us from the love of God...(Rom 8:38,39) The Lord will never forget us, we are engraved in the palm of His hands. (Isa 49:15,16)

Say it, claim it, and believe it...I am complete in Christ! I am wanted and loved by the very Creater Himself. Say it again...I am complete in Christ! I am wanted and loved by the very Creater Himself. Say it until you hear it, say it again until you believe it!

Whisper...the Lord is the only One that can fill that open space left from another. Your sister in Christ, Brown Eagle

Whisper...there comes a season...where the scars can rest...within the wings of love....and the soul within settles in peace. Brown Eagle

Are you with shadows of the past...one who has hurt or punished yourself?

Ecc 3:7a...there is a...a time to tear and a time to mend. v. 8b...a time for war and a time for peace.
Whisper...could these possibly apply even within ones self?....
Ecc. 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Isa 61:1-4 Rom. 8:35-39 Psm. 37:23

An inspiration in writing this, came from a portion of Jenny's poem... a precious friend.

" Heal me with your gift of love,
and let the brightness of that light,
Shine over us...
While the shadows fall behind." Jenny

Whisper......we can no longer see the shadows when we keep our eyes and our heart facing the "Son." (Col 2:17, James 1:17) It is only when we are facing away from the "Son" or turn our back on Christ, we then see shadows. In Christ and all to His glory, Brown Eagle
