Grant, you will do well at your new job. Be the happiest person there and the most fun of all. Work very hard and then tell people probably the reason you are like this is because you love Jesus.

Tell them, and more people than you would imagine will listen and believe you. You can change whole departments and the mind set of the people there. Just go do it, but with prayer.

Would you please join me to pray for a very strange group. THEY are not strange, and certainly not strange to me, but maybe to people who don't love animals that much they might seem hard to understand. They love buffalo and have banded together to protect them. I don't know them, I just love them. They call themselves, "Buffalo Nation."
They have just put out a desperate plea for anyone nearby Montana to come over immediately because about 50 hundgry buffalo without a clue just wandered outside of the yellowstone park borders and that is their death sentence. Like immediately. So this little group will run around in the snow trying one by one to herd them back in and it's very difficult. The buffalo don't want to go back in, they want food. This group will not enjoy watching Fish and Game agent round them rounded up and shoot them, rather than just let them have something to eat.

It's very unpleasant, especially if you love buffalo. I particularly love buffalo. This happens with great frequency in Montana, and that's how Buffalo Nation got started. Whether or not this is as important as other more important things doesn't matter. To them it is.

So, I stepped out in faith and emailed them that I was going to go to the prayer place here and pray that God will lead the buffalo back into the park. It would be nothing for Him to do this. He could blow them back into the park with his breath if He wants to. What is important is that I told these people I was going to put the prayer for the buffalo, more for the Buffalo Nation members, actually, here, and if it happened, they would know why.

FATHER GOD I ASK THAT YOU DO A SIMPLE MIRACLE AND TURN THE BUFFALO AROUND BACK INTO YELLOWSTONE PARK. I PRAY THAT YOU DO THIS FOR THE POOR BUFFALO AND FOR THE POOR PEOPLE IN BUFFALO NATION WHO ARE FILLING A SEIVE. FATHER GOD, THIS IS A SIMPLE THING FOR YOU TO DO, AND THEY WILL KNOW YOU DID IT.

I ASK THIS IN THE NAME OF YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST, AND YOU KNOW MY HEART IN THIS MATTER. LORD JESUS, SEND MINISTERING ANGELS TO LEAD THEM ALL TO YOU.

WE PRAY ALSO FOR ALL THOSE WHO HAVE NOTHING AND SIT LIKE JOB. FOR THOSE WHO DESERVE SUCH RETRIBUTION UPON THEM, I PRAY THEY TURN TO YOU FINALLY. FOR THE BELIEVERS WHO DO NOT DESERVE SUCH RETRIBUTION UPON THEM, WE PRAY THE MIRACLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT TO GET THEM THROUGH SUCH HORRIBLE LOSS. AND FOR THOSE GRIEVING AND DESPAIRING FOR LOSS OF ALL DESCRIPTION, FATHER GOD WE PRAY. HELP THEM NOW, LORD, OUT OF THE PIT. LET THEM SEE HEAVEN OPENED AND YOU, LORD JESUS, STANDING BY THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD THE FATHER. MOVE UPON THEM HOLY SPIRIT TO RESTORE THEIR FAITH TO A GREATER PLACE THAN EVER. LET THEM REMEMBER THE LAST CHAPTER OF JOB.

SOS FATHER GOD. SOS FATHER GOD. SOS FATHER GOD.
SOS LORD JESUS. SOS LORD JESUS. SOS LORD JESUS

HEAR OUR PRAYERS AND GIVE US DIRECTION. SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS SOS

Dear Grant :

I'm with Jane. Let the love of the Lord shine all over you each and every day. In many ways it is EASIER to be whom you already know you are in Christ when there is such a sharp contrast.

When my son went to college one of his first observations was how lost the world was without Jesus; he used that to immediately strengthen family ties and his faith in Christ.

I know a young man whose first job landed him; and we know that it was in God's will. Working in a research firm where his boss is a homo. and athesist. I told him that it may seem like he is spending his 40 years in the wilderness but his reaction was, I cannot say I like my boss but I cannot say I dislike him either. He treats me fairly and pretty much stays to himself and lets me do my job.

I just reminded him to respect him as a human being and if given the chance tell him what Christ has done for him. Which, please say a prayer for this boss and ask the Father in agreement with me that He will lead this boss into saving grace. In Christ.gregor
