Taliban 45 Days Captive Tells of Harrowing Tale

Jere Van Dyke was released from Taliban captivity after 45 days.

This CBS News correspondent was expecting death anytime during this harrowing experience but was resolute in keeping his calm and his faith.

His steadfastness in his religious belief, his truthfulness coupled with great humility has helped him overcome the ordeal and eventually his release.

All Christians can learn from his example as this blogger shares with you David's prayer in Psalm 23:4, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me."

Clinging to God through Jesus Christ in times of trouble, fear and uncertainty makes us stronger in being one with our Creator, the Almighty One who is the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End who leads us to everlasting life and eternal bliss.

Share the Light of Truth in Jesus Ministry

In 1 Corinthians 10:31 (source: biblehub.com,NIV), "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it for the glory of God." - (donation box redirected via 'guidance' sub site for Franciscan Friars TOR, PA). Greetings of peace, love and mercy and blessings to you as you may share the light of truth in Christ Jesus and become part of our ministry in supporting church based charities, seminaries and Christian renewal movements as we KJOH (Keep Jesus in our Hearts). That in all of these, in the joy of spreading the good news in the gospel of truth in Christ, in good deeds and in the miracles of faith we may share, God may be glorified. It is in what we sow that we may reap a fruitful and bountiful harvest and in the generations that come. Godspeed and may God bless us and our KJOH family here in GHE in an endearing, guiding, healing and joyful way as we give thanks to Him and see the greater wisdom of loving God in the love of others in Christ, and be made witness to the healing essence and truth of the crucified Christ in each one of us that we are all interconnected to share in God's truth, in God's hope, love and mercy in the light of Christ that heals and saves, and in the sincerity of our hearts, to learn to give back in kindness, love and goodness as we may live in His grace.

... and together, may we all be blessed and find time to seek for the truth in Christ's words and apply these in our everyday lives as we keep him in our hearts and share in our mission vision in this ministry: "to see all men live in truth with love and forgiveness in our hearts and spirit, as we are made accountable in all our actions to God and to man, learn to reject all that is evil that may keep us away from Jesus, as we may see our lives healed in body, mind and spirit, and see our lives prosper, seeing a better quality of life experienced in the joy of living in peace and harmony with others, humbling ourselves to become one with Jesus and live in Jesus in this life long journey, a stepping stone to eternal life, and that in all good things that we do using all material things and our talents, may we see God greatly pleased as he is glorified." May God Bless us all - GHE Admin

The Christian Dictum

“In everything that you may do, do it right dear friend,
Keep strong in spirit in God's words, obeying His commands

May you fill your life with love as you keep Jesus in your heart
Forget it not that God is watching you;

That in everything that you may do,

Your best shot in all honesty He wants you offer

Away from your comfort zone challenged

That you together with others in this life may prosper,

Best in spirit, while other blessings may come

Added to you in search of God's kingdom and

Duly rewarded in many ways seeking

In His righteousness your talents honed a-blazing;

Others may believe in Him, while some may not;

Yet in people you may see, He molds to His liking,

In man's gifts and talents things come amazing;

In doing things not for your own purpose

See you and your family blessed doing God's purpose;
Doing godly ways may you see your heart

And your soul further open to hearken,

Together with the rest may you be made more aware

In the love of God and of others find your halo a-glare;

Unconditional love, with your concern to help enlighten,

With understanding, forgiveness and compassion you grow,

In God's wisdom may you see the beauty of sharing

And with enlightened learning uplift and help prosper

The soul to what is truthful and noble,

The breath of life - the Holy Spirit keeping you well and able

So with what is righteous and what satisfies as it is filling;

In prayer for discernment may you be guided

Quickly may you distinguish what destroys,

And what breaks relationships from harmony and unity;

Gossip is an evil tool so be wary

Cut this unclean habit off as early;

Foolish pride and arrogance make you weary in self-pity;

Consider others as more important than you

Taking time to open up in humility, kindness and concern,

In full trust and confidence in you, harmony follows suit;

Gaining self-respect and peace of mind adds to your beauty

Save your health, your bones not to rot with envy,

It is evil in darkness, unloving ways, these keep one unhealthy;

Lift yourself up and move forward away from all negativity;

Trusting God first as you may let go of all your fears

Up you go upon His shoulders, your yoke He carries

Your burden made light healed from meaningless anxieties;

So never ever waver, never doubt, whine or quit,

In the Holy Spirit may you stay guided away from guilt,

Cleansed by Jesus' most precious blood by FAITH

Doing good deeds abiding, redeemed by His grace to the hilt;

Ever selfless in reaching out, touching peoples lives

Refreshed and renewed, rising up from your death to sin,

Energized in body and spirit, for in Christ we do always win,

And as you may touch the lives of others,

It is Jesus in their faces that your eyes may see;

The crucified Christ in you bind your body in flesh together,

Always ready made stronger and fit, a cross ready to carry;

In all your actions and decisions learn to take responsibility;

Where passing blame or think malice of others

Is never wise, never nice and never merry;
The more you judge, your face in the mirror may you see,
The more you forgive, peace and goodwill to men profit thee;

Keep humble, unpretentious, speak in truth and in love,
The more you may gain honor, respect, feel full and elated;
The more you give comfort, in God's compassion find relief;
The more you give and share, countless blessings abound;

Whatever the outcome in whatever good you may do,

Give thanks to The Lord and glorify His Holy Name

Trust and pray, "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done

On earth as it is in Heaven..." the Lord's prayer

Made complete and powerful especially coming from the heart;
He knows what is best, in your good efforts He repays;

Vengeance is not of you to seek, un-blemished do remain,

Being above all things, again, it is He who avenge and repays;

In His time in His way remain blessed in His light;
Blessings you may start accounting, they come out much more

As you lift up all your hurts, worries and anxieties mounting,

Gone with the wind one by one disappearing

In the Holy Spirit, by faith, miracles you may see happening;

With how much you have loved and have forgiven,

In the light of Christ Jesus, in His loving mercy and grace

Your full repentance accepted, your renewal in spirit whole,

Blessings to you my friend, may eternal life be thine."
