RE: 6th Update

This week's promise: God will live among us with great joy

Do you have a joy that rubs off on other people?

I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me, freeing me from all my fears. Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces. I cried out to the Lord in my suffering, and he heard me. He set me free from all my fears. For the angel of the Lord guards all who fear him, and he rescues them.

Psalm 34:4-7 NLT

Contagious joy

Do you enjoy watching the televised Olympic games? If you do, you know the joy the winners of an Olympic event experience is contagious. That's one reason millions of people watch the Olympics so religiously. It's not simply to see the drama of the event and the excellence and form of the athletes. It's also to share in the contagious joy of the winners. In Psalm 34 David describes the same type of joy radiating from believers. All those who look to God for help will experience a joy so intense that other people can see it in their faces. David says the reason for that joy is that God has heard and answered our prayers. Our shame has been taken away. We have been set free from all our fears because the angel of the Lord encamps around us. He guards his people. Pray today that the angel of the Lord will set up camp around you and your relationships. Commit your fears and worries to God, and ask him to guard you. He can set you free from your fears and grant you radiant joy as you look to him for help.

We won nothing in last night’s drawing. The good news: No one won the Jack Pot, so it’s going up.

This game contains 6 more drawings, so there is a good chance you will see the Jack Pot rise to over $100 Million.

Here are your numbers:

Your game is scheduled to end on January 19^th, 2008, and Barbara leaves for New Orleans on the 29^th of January. So there will be a short time we will not have tickets in this game.

Now I would love for us to win more than the $21.00 shown below. It would be nice if we won enough money that we could have a boatload of tickets. If only a boatload of tickets meant we would win.

Here is Mac’s spreadsheet for this game: http://tinyurl.com/2e4llr

I’ll keep your winnings here, until I spend them:

Amount Won	Date	Running Total
$3.00	11/14/2007	$3.00
$3.00	11/28/2007	$6.00
$4.00	12/12/2007	$10.00
$4.00	12/12/2007	$14.00
$7.00	12/15/2007	$21.00

Your next drawing is on Wednesday January 2^nd, 2008. The Jack Pot is worth $52 Million. The Cash Option is worth $25,600,000.00. Shares in this game were priced at $20.00; we have 10 shares issued in this game.

Here what you would get before any attorney fees, taxes, or tithes:

Shares Purchased	Amount you could win
.5	$ 1,280,000.00
1	$ 2,560,000.00
2	$ 5,120,000.00

The Man from the Desert.

This fellow who had spent his whole life in the desert comes to visit a friend. He'd never seen a train or the tracks they run on.

While standing in the middle of the railroad tracks one day, he hears the whistle, "Whooee Whoee!" but doesn't know what it is.

Predictably, he's hit -- but only a glancing blow -- and is thrown, to the side of the tracks, with some minor internal injuries, a few broken bones, and some bruises.

After weeks in the hospital recovering, he's at his friend's house attending a party one evening. While in the kitchen, he suddenly hears the tea kettle whistling. He grabs a baseball bat from the nearby closet and proceeds to batter and bash the tea kettle into an unrecognizable lump of metal.

His friend, hearing the ruckus, rushes into the kitchen, sees what's happened, and asks the man from the desert, "Why did you ruin my good tea kettle?"

The desert man replies, "Man, you gotta kill these things when they're small!"
