Yes, Michael H., I will be praying for you also. This is what will get us through these struggles and spiritual warfare we battle everyday. The prayers and support of fellow Christians will help us to fight these battles and help us be a light to the world, a soul winner. Blessings in the marvelous work God has called you to do. GS, that scripture you gave is exactly whar I was talking about. Kinda makes us sit up and take notice and see how awesome and powerful God is. Keeps us from dwelling on the small stuff that is so unimportant. My greatest joy is helping someone become a child of God or comfort someone who is having a hard time or just need someone to listen to them and pray with them. Like John UK said, to pray for this lady, that the seed put in her heart will take root and grow.
And a big amen on your post, Dorcas!! We need to be remined to do this ever so often.No one on this forum has reached perfection yet and if we remember this then it will be easier to do what you posted. Blessings to you.
Btw, yes there are rules that have to be followed in the power co. As well as any other business because of the kind of people in the world today, for one that destroys power grids. Yes, you do have to have a social security number to have a meter set,after all you could be a terrorist ready to take down a power grid or someone that has left another power company owing them a large bill..happens all the time. They get very busy at the end of the month pulling meters with deliquent bills and the same nu.mber of connects the next few days. A whole week of just pulling meters and setting meters back.
Let me enlighten some of you on the life of a lineman who is not a Christian. He works from 8 to 5 everyday and comes home tired from a day of setting poles, putting iin meters, taking out meters building lines, repairing lines and take turns being on call every week-end or so which means staying home in case of emergences. That might mean setting a meter that had been pulled for non payment and wanted it back on now. Also, when he comes in tired from working all day, phone rings and he has to leave again to go on a trouble call or set a meter that had been pulled for non payment and btw it is always the same people thats on that list every month. When a storm comes up they are out in the rain or snow with lightning hitting the lines miles awsy that can be felt even through protective gloves while you sleep in your warm bed or maybe not if you are the unlucky ones to have yours off and he works on those lines until they are back on again and that can mean all night. He has gone to other towns hit by ice storms and need crews from every where to get electricity back on faster. That could mean a week of staying in motels away from family.Other lineman stay home and have to work with a smaller crew to take up the slack. He also has 4 kids to support. His wife prays each day for Go
