When You or I are Criticized For Righteousness It Is Not Time To Be Silenced!

When you or I meet and greet each one  along each street we travel with a joyous song and a call to a higher life of righteousness,
Do not be so surprised that not all want to follow and come along...

There will always be some that would rather complain and remain in their crude but familiar same old same old more travelled road that leads to death.

There will always be those who will choose their own self-righteous ways that pay a promised salary though far less than GOD's best that HE yearns to give each one who is willing to leave behind their routine habits of the road around the same old mountain.

But lets you and I instead not lose sleep and certainly not our joy over these who make lots of noise with their threats of arrest.

When you see anyone who is living far below where they were created to be....

Challenge them to a higher level of life...Challenge them honor both GOD, themselves and others by changing their vocabulary....never call persons: "Hey GUYS!"  But rather what GOD calls them....

"Friends and each by name!"

When we call others by their true name that GOD Himself calls them we show them honor and respect.   
Maybe not right away, but soon and very soon when an individual is shown such respect no longer lumped into a generic group...

He or she will be inspired to a higher life style and  reach for and acquiring greater things...
Things that are holy, pure and true that they would have never sought had you not made the effort to call them what GOD has called them all along but never heard until you came along and echoed GOD's voice repeatedly with your heart always kneeling...

So Be an Esther or a Jacob and not be discouraged from living righteously but open your mouth with correction and encouragement and the blues will never come to you!

Amen Amen  Amen and Alleluia!

As We Draw Close to Christmas and the End of Another Year We Are Very Grateful!

When you and I and those we love are always seeking to be a blessing to another...

Whether a next door neighbor, a sister or a brother...

Regardless what we do or what we give...The one True GOD of us all multiplies our seed we sow into others lives to bring health, joy, or warm the lives of those less fortunate...or possibly the lost who made poor choices that landed them behind the bars of state prisons and county or parish jails.

When we are always seeking the opportunity to bless...
GOD Chases us down with blessings!

William & I have embraced what was once merely our dream...retroactive
That every man who lacked proper guidance in taking the right path...
Will be given another chance!

This calender year 2011 the doors have been legally sprung open for our dream to become reality,
when The Second Chance Act passed.

On the same date only son was deployed to Iraq, September 13, 2011...The Internal Revenue Service declared The Carpenter's Friend to be an Educational 501(C)(3) Non-Profit Public Charity retroactive to August 26, 2011.  

And we are also giving thanks and praise that our son Captain Charles Andrew Griggs safely has returned home to El Paso Texas after the Iraq War was declared over by our President....  Charles shocked us with a phone call from FT Hood Texas November 7, 2011.  We are stunned since even he was told that if the Iraq conflict was ended before his one year deployment was up...he and his men would be sent directly into a different war zone.

So we give thanks that he and his unit are all home for at least Christmas with their families before our country calls them into action again.

We also take this time to thank you, our readers, and financial supporters that keep us moving toward setting all captives free with carpentry skills that they will be builders of new lives and never destructive again.

Turning them into punctual, highly skilled carpenters...Tax Paying contributors to their communities.

Many thanks and may GOD chase you too down with infinitely more blessings than you can ask think dream or imagine...for more than you can contain making you yourself a fountain of HIS overflowing abundance onto others...a fruitful tree planted by living water.

Amen Amen Amen and Alleluia!                       http://thecarpentersfriend.com/

When We Make a Purposeful Decision to Make Every Word We Ever Speak Be a Blessing to Any And All Who Hear Us Speak...

We ourselves will be chased down by blessings...

Both joy and jealousy will follow us all the days of our lives.

For those who have not received the grace....the art of joyful submission the with it brings the Holy Peace that surpasses all understanding,

They will hate us just as they hated The Lord.

But let you & I rejoice with The Apostles and the Holy Saints of Almighty GOD
That both our love, and great Faith...or commitment is worthy of their hatred for HIS Name sake!

Keep on singing in spite of their snickers...say a prayer for them as you fly past them upon HIS lifting Holy Wings;
Just maybe if we take the time to do so...our simple prayer may be all GOD needs to draw them to Himself that they not be lost.

And when you and I enter HIS Pearly Heaven's Gates we will have a river of believers trailing us to HIM that they to may receive Eternal LIfe In and Through HIM.

Amen Amen Amen and Aleluia!

When You and I Choose to Sing New Songs From Our Heart's Soul His Joy Can Raise You Daily Too!

When you and I choose to Sing New Songs from our heart's soul ...
You will never be blue, never be blue....  'Cause HE's got you and You have HIm so never be blue...

For HE makes all things not just possible...  nor even probable...

But when we sing... when we sing our dreams...

HE watching over HIS spoken and sung Words... turns our dreams into REALITY !!

EstherStephanada!

OUR LORD IS COMING BACK FOR AND TO A UNITED CHURCH WITHOUT SPOT BLEMISH OR WRINLE.... SO WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO BRIDGE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN YOUR FAITH GROUP AND OTHERS ; EVEN TO BRIDGE DIVISIONS WITHIN YOUR OWN CHURCH

Our Lord is coming back for a united church without spot blemish or wrinkle!

Like in your own family, do you or anyone get anywhere when everyone talks at the same time?

How about when one family member whether a father or mother...
    A sister or brother forces their will upon you and the rest of the family?

I do not call that love, but oppression!

Jesus came that we may not only have life, but enjoy our lives 
      more abundantly!        

So what are you doing to spread HIS peace which surpaasses all 
        understanding and guards and guides ones heart through HIM whom we are waiting watchfully to return?

How are you reaching out as a Jacob or an Esther to sow                 
             healing  between your own church members and family?
When you and I reach out to point out how we are similar.....   
      and the same instead of dwelling or harping on differences.....
Then and only then or we truely bringing closer......
         The Return Coming of The Lord...
Everything else wedo Divides and postpones HIS Glory
          Upon our lives and the world!

So what are you doing tonight?  Tomorrow?   Reach out to those
           Who are broken...  to whom you have not spoken
             For quite some time... forgive and give it all to HIM
And let HIS healing in you and through you flow out of you upon
            All especially those you yourself may have cut off!

Amen Amen Amen and Alleluia!

EstherStephanada!

SMILE SMILE SMILE AND HIS BLESSINGS WILL CHASE YOU DOWN AND ALL AROUND EVERY CORNER KNOCKING YOU DOOR DOWN TO FLOOD YOUR HEART YOUR HOME AND ALL AROUND YOU!

Yes Yes Yes!We chose our own destiny and level which HE RAISES us to....


Through our Word choices which form our attitudes!

You can see yourself as the enemy wants you to be...

Or you and I CAN CHOOSE HIS BEtter and Best part and even

Promises that it will never be taken from you!

So when your job has been eliminated and you have been evicted from your dwelling....

Rejoice Oh Highly Favored Son or Daughter....   For HE who had no place to lay HIS Most Holy head shall pour upon you a Blessing that you cannot contain...


But only when you choose not to complain but Sing a New Song

Onto HIM rejoicing that you have been chosen to live like HIM that HE may use you in your Faithfullness to inspire all the rest!



That is what we do!  We have been rejoicing along with HIS apostles HIS Saints in heaven that we are HIS chosen and worthy to be despised for HIS MOST HOLY NAME!


Thee only sad thing is those who despise us could be one in us  through us and for us...  and thus be one of us....  through Sacramental repentance and they too BE RAISED By HIM!


Because we have kept our commitment to Our Lord.  We have corrected those who have tried to soil us with sin...  coniving us to file false insurance claim...

We made our Verizon man honest and said NO you are going to correct this honestly for the Gustavson's never lie and remain clean before our GOD....

And thus we have been Blessed with a Motorhome Drive for Gary Stroud of Tom Johnsons in Marion NC is selling us a used motorhome in great condition which will be at least 36ft with a slide so that wecan live in it forever comfortable and safely go prison to prison!

Debbie is our banker accepting donations in any form that is convienient for each donor.
GOD Bless you!     debbie.wiatrowski@53.com
