A Note from Sandy

As I have traveled around the Texas Conference, meeting so many of you has been a pleasure.

If you are the Women’s Ministries leader for your local Texas Conference church and are not on my email list, please email me at WMEnglish@txsda.org so we can keep in touch.

As we see the signs that our savior JESUS is about to return, ladies, let’s roll up our sleeves and get this work done as how only GOD’S daughters of Ophir can.

I am a single mother of a wonderful, loving, intelligent, active, creative, techy, social, out-going, athletic, creative, hard-working, God-fearing teenage son.

My teen believes in the one & only loving, omnipotent Heavenly Father. He has prayed, "Lord, help Thou my unbelief...", "Lord, help me overcome temptation...", Lord, help me to grow into a Godly, respectful, responsible, loving, strong, honorable, faithful, intelligent, virtuous man."

We need major prayer. There are MUCH more distractions in this world than there ever were before. Jesus is coming back soon!

We start and end the day with family worship_hymns, prayer & scripture reading. He leads out and picks the hymns & devotional he will read. We each pick the scripture we will recite or read.

I believe it's important for him to lead out in family worship (as he will one day lead his family to the Lord), and for him to chose what songs will minister to his heart/mind (to help keep him anchored).

We've been through numerous storms in our lives, and have tried to continue to praise our Heavenly Father through the storm. We are definitely dealing with great deal. Because of our life experiences, many Christians tear us down. My son had a rough start, but the Lord has changed his life. He keeps choosing Jesus.

There are those Christians who believe that our Heavenly Father is limited. A 13 or 14 year old who received ungodly instructions from his troubled dad can't change years later, and choose to follow his Heavenly Father instead. The Bible is full of characters who had a life changing experience and became mighty men (& wonderful women) of God_ Paul, and King David are great examples.

PLEASE, please pray for a increase in finances, safety, a steady job that fits our household, peace that passes all understanding, joy, support, love, wisdom, discernment, steadfastness to our Heavenly Father no matter what 'storms' come our way.

May we all be filled and baptized with the Holy Spirit every moment of the day. May we all be surrounded with God's presence, and His Holy, mighty Angels. May we all constantly seek God's face every moment of our lives.

Thank you so much.

May the One and only true God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Our Heavenly Father bless you as you bless others.

Hello beautiful ladies of the Texas Conference,
As the long hot days of summer drag on, you undoubtedly look anxiously to cooler temperatures. To some of you, the external temperature seems almost like winter compared to the raging, volcanic eruptions taking place on the inside of you, specifically your mind!
The seemingly impossible tasks at work, conflicts in the home, division at church, all when combined with wars, famine, disasters of every kind, violence and carnage, makes you want to crawl back into bed until a good day decides to show up.
In spite of our walk with GOD, if the truth is to be told, we would prefer an entrance into heaven without the drama and pain, that seems to pervade our tiny little planet.
More and more, no one seems to escape the pangs of anxiety and worry; ok, let’s be honest, temporary depression. Even seasoned Christians and prayer warriors seem to be losing their faith and fight, in this evil, maligned world.
What are we to do? James 1:4 reminds us “to let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect, and entire, (complete) wanting nothing.”
When you are in a trial, you may feel as if you will never get through it.  Remember that GOD, in HIS love for you, will never abandon you! JESUS weighed the circumstances of your trial before it got to you, in order that you may be able to bear it.
The testing of our faith works to make sure that we are ready and completely qualified to become bullet proof against all the enemy’s assaults.
GOD does not delight in your suffering or pain any more than what HIS own son JESUS Christ was permitted to bear in Gethsemane’s garden, Pilate’s judgment hall and Calvary’s cross.
The enemy seeks to test our loyalty to GOD yet, even through those painful moments, GOD stands near to ensure we are not completely knocked out of the boxing ring with one of satan’s TKOs.
So, count it all joy my dear sisters as “the working of your trial” is really intended to make you perfect, in JESUS Christ.
No, I’m not saying to pretend you’re not hurting, but claim the promises of GOD and continue to cling to the hope that is found in Christ. In the words of the apostle Paul “count it light affliction.”
The HOLY Bible gives us hope, in knowing that sin is soon to come to its end and all the things you went through and endured in JESUS name will work together for your good because you love and trusted GOD!
Stay blessed,  beautiful and faith filled, my dear sisters!
Warm regards always,
Sandy Mars
