New Earth in The Upper Room #LX
15 years ago
General
SOOO, a bunch of astronomers found a new planet in the consultation of libra. And they're going to shoot a rocket at it...
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/universe.....1_feature.html
Why should you care? Some evangelicals believe that it's the 'New Jerusalem'(heaven) and/or the 'New Earth' that is said in revelation...and As a church member and I was talking (I was fixing his computer) we ended up coming to conclusions that Silvia Brown could possibly be right when she says that we live on hell...on it NOT in it...
But I have no real proof, so besides the planet being real take the rest with a grain of salt.

The "Upper Room"
Read James 5:13-16
Jesus said, "Where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them."
-Matthew 18:20 (NRSV)
I have a dear friend, Priscilla, whom I haven't seen in the many years since my husband and I moved to a new town. Each morning when I read The Upper Room devotional, the title, The Upper Room, conjures up fond memories of my friend. It was in the "upper room" of our church that we met many years ago on a hot, summer evening as we prepared with other church members to teach vacation Bible school. When asked where we met, Priscilla and I always loved telling people we met in the "upper room" (Luke 22:12, NIV, KJV).
Over the years as our friendship deepened, our prayer times together grew increasingly precious to me. Priscilla taught me to pray with complete spontaneity. If either of us needed prayer, the next words out of Priscilla's mouth would be, "Anne, let's pray." Initially, I would respond, "Right here? Right now?" She would always take my hands in hers and begin to pray.
It was important to me for Priscilla to take my hands in hers and say, "Let's pray." I felt God's presence in the touching of our hands. I would feel a spark of instantaneous hope, relieving any stress I was experiencing, giving me confidence that God was at work and would remedy whatever problem I faced.
