Yielded To Christ Home-Page

Dear Pastors, Friends and Family In Christ,

We rejoice greatly to let you know that Yielded To Christ Mission Ministry has been greatly blessed by the Lord over these last four years of our call to ministry to reach the world for Jesus. The Lord continues to inspire and lead us in this very exciting work for Him. We want to obey and yield fully to Him in bringing the Good News of Salvation to every corner of the world. We will continue to build up the body of Christ with bible teaching, pastoral support, prayer partnerships and articles to help, encourage and strengthen the Christian in their walk with Jesus.

Please pray for us that God’s will be done as we move forward to win the lost for Jesus and to inspire and challenge Christians everywhere to join hands to fulfill the Great Commission.

Praising God Anyway
(Sharing insights from the writings of Dr Robert H Schuller)

"Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving." - Colossians 4:2

Our daughter Carol had been in a motorcycle accident. My wife and I were flying to her side from a speaking engagement in Korea, when suddenly I felt grief well up uncontrollably within me.

In the solitary confinement of an airplane lavatory six miles above the Pacific, in the middle of my sobbing, I was moved by the most miraculous positive thought.

The thought came like a clear message from Jesus Christ: "Schuller, if you are going to make a lot of noise, turn it into something positive. Let your lips shape the sounds that are coming." I found my lips and tongue reshaping the wailing, sobbing sounds and turning them into the word "Alleluia."

Tears rolled down my face, but the Alleluia was repeated. I kept repeating it - "Alleluia, alleluia" - until all of the audible crying sounds were out of my tortured soul.

It was amazing! The last "Alleluias" were offered in a hushed whisper. I found myself looking upward with my hands raised in a gesture that said, "I give this painful event, along with the broken body of my daughter, to You, God, and I praise You.

"I praise You for your comfort,
I praise You for Your healing,
I praise You for turning our tears into pearls,
I praise You for turning her scars into stars."

The next time your life is broken into a thousand pieces and you are hurting, try praying "Alleluia." If you can repeat no other word, keep repeating it again and again.

Then wait for God to come like a sweet dove of peace to bless you. A soft spirit will kiss your tortured soul with tender mercies.

Thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness. Amen.

Thank you for sharing this time with Yielded To Christ Mission Ministry. Have a great week ahead. God bless you abundantly today and always because you have been faithful in seeking the Lord. Hallelujah! Praise Jesus! Amen.

Yes, be an Encourager today for Jesus. Touch someone with your love for Christ. Amen. The world needs you! All Glory be to God. Amen. - Ben and Anna (Missionaries)
