Baby Angel II KKIM/DDC

Dear KKIM Family,

May the Peace and Strength of the Lord be with you and yours!

I am so thankful we are together this morning and get to serve the Lord together!

Please pray for Sharon's Dad, Roger Altman, he has been put into Hospice care now in Elk Grove California. Please pray for Sharon and her family during this time. I believe Roger will be going home soon. We were on the phone last night with Sharon's Mom.

Here are some thoughts from Rick Warren.........

As followers of Christ we're prohibited from hating anyone or hurting back. Let it go & you will grow.

When Beecher 1st shared the idea of God with Helen Keller she said "I always knew he was there.I just didnt know his name."

Last night on NM News and Views a very moving program. We devoted the program to the Baby Girl that was shot to death by her Father here in Albuquerque.( We are calling her Baby Angel II as the first Baby that was killed this year in Albuquerque by his Mother was given the name Baby Angel by our loving community) Pastor Randy Walquist of Immanuel Lutheran and Pastor Mark Tross joined me and the Lord led the conversation. We prayed......we cried........and then read this very moving email by State Rep. Janice E Arnold Jones......what words Janice writes.....We also received other responses that we post below.......This CUP is dedicated to baby Angel II........If you did not catch NM News and Views yesterday..you missed the God given emotion of the message He sent us to give out to His people......We are moving so quickly from one tragedy to the next........let us slow down and reflect and pray.........


Dewey:



When I heard the account of this young man killing his infant daughter, my response was like yours: my heart broke and my eyes filled with tears.

What can we do to change acts such as this?

Would the death penalty have prevented this act? No.
Would increased prison time have prevented this act? No.
Did increased sex education in our schools prevent this act? No.
Did increased education about sexual orientation prevent this act? No.
Did any of the available parenting programs prevent this act? No.
Did a free love, no need for marriage, attitude prevent this act? No.
Did any of the State sponsored programs regarding waiting to engage in sexual relations prevent this act? No.
Did any of our faith-based abstinence programs prevent this act? No.
Were family or friends able to prevent this act? No

My point is, the question we are all asking is: what can we do for or about young people who are engaging in sex too early, who bring a child into this world before they are mature enough to focus on the needs of the child rather than their own desires, or who bring a child into the world before they are mature enough to provide for themselves and their child?

I am absolutely certain that Government is not a substitute for a loving parent, nor can Government create, train, or enforce loving parenting.

In trying to grasp this horrific act, the ONLY place I find guidance is in prayer and the scriptures.

It is on me. It is on us.

Gayla Reid, my Bible Study Fellowship leader in 1998, would ask at times such as these: Do MY attitudes, actions and reactions reflect what I SAY I BELIEVE about Jesus Christ?

While no single one of us may have prevented this act, our individual attitudes, actions and reactions are like the circles created by a pebble dropped in water -- the circles embrace so much more than we know. Perhaps, with more pebbles, this young man's heart and self-control might have been touched preventing the taking of an innocent child, baby daughter's life.

Many days I wish, I want, to know and understand God's plan for us and the schedule! In the end, it is faith in God that makes it possible to seek his will, and the next step. Today, I pray to be a pebble and that my attitudes, actions and reactions reflect what I SAY I BELIEVE about Jesus Christ.

I am certain that I am missing much of the obvious. Perhaps your listeners could weigh in on what individuals of faith can do today, and in the future, that would help to prevent such horrific acts.

Always appreciate your service.

In love,

WOW is right my brother.
Our friend Janice E. Arnold Jones has hit the nail on the head. It is each one of us "walking the walk". It is each one of us doing our best to not only have the head knowledge of the Bible but put into action the truths of God's Word. It is up to us to engage our neighbors, our friends, those at the coffee shop, at the grocery store, bank etc. to not only "preach the Word" but live the Word.

Whose responsible? We all are. Every day we must have our "spiritual antenna's" up watching, praying, seeking out those who need friendship and fellowship to introduce them to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. The Great Commission and the Great Commandment must become our mission and vision. If not us, who? If not now, when?

praying,
Leonard


Dewey,


My heart grieves with yours after reading today's "Very Upsetting" Daily Cup. Such an unspeakable act of evil that is becoming far too common. It's better to pray than talk about it, but I felt led to share with you the lyrics of a song I love by Jason Upton, called "Father of the Fatherless". Print the lyrics out, then click on the link below of a YouTube video of Jason singing the song. Let it comfort your heart as you are reminded of the opposite of today's evil - the perfect love of our Heavenly Father.


Father of the Fatherless - by Jason Upton



I don't know how, to say what I'm feeling.
I don't have words, to write You a song.
But I have this hope and I have this prayer,
and I am believing.
Your words are true.
You never leave us alone.


Father of the fatherless, come down and rescue us.
We need You, we need You again.
Friend of the friendless, come down and visit us.
We need You, we need You again.


How many sons have cried for their fathers?
And how many fathers have cried like a son?
Now every tear saved through the years in memory's bottle
becomes the fine wine, You serve to the children of God.

Dewey,
This is beyond belief, what is going on with People? I pray for all children, that cannot defend themselves.
God bless you,
Brenda

Dewey,
Very sad. But do not let the enemy distract you. He has no authority over
these people or your city. Chris

Pastor Mark Tross has these comments posted at www.mykkim.com under NM News and Views.....he made these comments after last nights program........

Pastor Randy from Immanuel Lutheran Church, whose program airs here every Sunday morning at 9, joined us this afternoon to talk about the tragic death spoken of above (Under Dewey's Daily Cup Heading and the first two stories of the day). He has been on KKIM for over two decades now and the prayers he offered up today tell you why. There's much for us to reflect on and pray about during these trying times, but God Is Faithful & Jesus NEVER Fails! 1 Co. 1:9; 13:13 Read over the Scriptures shared this afternoon and listen to what The Spirit is saying to The Church for Today:

Micah 7:1-7 (NASB)
1 Woe is me! For I am Like the fruit pickers, like the grape gatherers. There is not a cluster of grapes to eat, Or a first-ripe fig which I crave.
2 The godly person has perished from the land, And there is no upright person among men. All of them lie in wait for bloodshed; Each of them hunts the other with a net.
3 Concerning evil, both hands do it well. The prince asks, also the judge, for a bribe, And a great man speaks the desire of his soul; So they weave it together.
4 The best of them is like a briar, The most upright like a thorn hedge. The day when you post your watchmen, Your punishment will come. Then their confusion will occur.
5 Do not trust in a neighbor; Do not have confidence in a friend. From her who lies in your bosom Guard your lips.
6 For son treats father contemptuously, Daughter rises up against her mother, Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; A man's enemies are the men of his own household.
7 But as for me, I will watch expectantly for the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.

Luke 12:49-59 (NASB)
49 "I have come to cast fire upon the earth; and how I wish it were already kindled!
50 "But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
51 "Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division;
52 for from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.
53 "They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law."
54 And He was also saying to the crowds, "When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, 'A shower is coming,' and so it turns out.
55 "And when you see a south wind blowing, you say, 'It will be a hot day,' and it turns out that way.
56 "You hypocrites! You know how to analyze the appearance of the earth and the sky, but why do you not analyze this present time?
57 "And why do you not even on your own initiative judge what is right?
58 "For while you are going with your opponent to appear before the magistrate, on your way there make an effort to settle with him, so that he may not drag you before the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.
59 "I say to you, you will not get out of there until you have paid the very last cent."

Galatians 5:19-23 (NASB)
19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality,
20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions,
21 envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Many Blessings,
Rev. Mark F. Tross

Let us pray.............

Lord, We pray Lord that this tragedy will bring Your people closer together......that lives will be given to You through Baby Angel II.....We pray for all those involved in this tragedy. In the name of Jesus, AMEN!

In the Love of Christ, Dewey Sharon and family
