Let us pray…..As Baltimore burns in hate, Oh, Lord I pray for America, a nation once under YOU now one nation away from YOU, I pray Lord that people look at the death and pain in Nepal……over 5,000 have perished, just got word Lord, of a family of 18 that died when their house collapsed in Nepal. Lord I pray that people put down their hate and help their fellow brothers and sisters in Nepal. Over 5,000 have died and over 8 million people have been affected by the earthquake. Lord I have never seen my country, the United States in such pain, such hate, this is worse than the 60’s…..the America I once knew is dying. The country is torn apart by words and hate, by killings and other sinful actions. It seems Lord, America loves to talk and hate, Oh do Americans love to talk….but takes little action to return to YOU. Lord there are plenty of people that have your joy, the joy that lights up the world, the joy that gives us hope…..their words and actions speak volumes for YOU and YOUR ways. Thank YOU for your servant Clarence “Cowboy” Montoya who always brings YOUR joy to everyone he meets, even when he is very sick in his hospital bed……All the Cowboy wants, is to talk love and share YOUR love with all……..I have never heard this man talk bad about anybody, he defends all, he prays for everyone, he witnessed before the nurses last night! Strong message for us all! Thank YOU LORD for the life of the Cowboy! In Jesus name, Amen
Last night when I visited the Cowboy in the hospital I brought him a new Bible, that has the Words of Jesus in red…..He loves Bibles, before I left we prayed over this passage………
Salt and Light matthew 5:13-15
13“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.14“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; 15nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.…
It seems that the brightest light in America is getting to be burning hate, burning cars, burning buildings……….As Nepal mourns, I ask has America lost the ability to mourn? Or is it so hateful and numb?
It is a blessing to share with you that the Cowboy may be dismissed from the hospital today, he thanks you for all your love and prayers. The nurse on the left is from India. The Cowboy witnessed to both nurses last night when I visited him. The World needs more “Cowboy Clarence” love and understanding. Man has made the message of Jesus so complicated and divided. People are drawn the the light of the Cowboy, I know I am, he has made me a better person. The Cowboy is the Church of Jesus Christ….we are all called to be…. One final word…….if the Cowboy can minister like this in such a wonderful way from his hospital bed…..what can you and I do with our two legs? UPDATE: The Cowboy was released from the hospital today! PRAISE GOD!
