JACOB ROGER ALLEN – HS GRADUATION – MAY 25 2012

JACOB ROGER ALLEN – HS GRADUATION – MAY 25 2012

Uncle Stephen asked about his nephew. Yes, Jacob does graduate this month. Right now, he’s on his ‘Senior Class Trip’ in Virginia Beach… a missions trip, half and a holiday vacation, half… Jacob will graduate May 25th 2012, from the AG “New Covenant Christian Academy” in Mansfield Pennsylvania, near Mansfield University, where he has been attending! Miraculously… tuition has been supplied by private unknown donors. He is looking forward to his graduation and his matriculation to “Elim Bible institute”.

He enjoys his employment at ‘McDs’… long hours, but he makes himself indispensable!

He’s an Allen-Winchell… What more can I say? Grandpa Duaine

Sarah Beth, we’re on our way to “New Covenant Christian Academy” and we’re riding with Jacob and he’s the star of the program!

He’s graduating as an exceptional senior and his commencement services begin! His lifestyle will change. His cultural mores, habits, values, opinions, ideas, assumptions, & peer-influences…They must & invariably do change! But his personality, Godly character and his dynamic leadership influence will only mature, with his emergent submission to God & his “Life-Lessons”!

Yep, yepper, yeserie his adult-life commences… then the BA DEGREE, then the MARRIAGE DEGREE, then the passports, then the BIRTH CERTIFICATES, then the new Car-Title, then the HOME-Title, & as I say, this is just a commencement… but with all families & friends we exult with JACOB ROGER ALLEN!

WE CARE for him, WE LOVE him, WE PRAY for him!

This photograph was taken Friday May 25 2012, evening at “New Covenant Christian Academy” in Mansfield Pennsylvania. My grandson, my eldest grandson, Jacob has graduated from high school and then he received several awards and scholarships including a, ‘to be matched’, cash scholarship of 500 dollars towards his “Elim Bible Institute” coming from the “Wellsboro Ministerial Fellowship”! He received sports awards for basketball and soccer for his sportsmanship & team spirit! He was awarded “The Class Spirit Award” for Christian Leadership! He has also submitted a ‘Written Essay’ for “Elim Bible Institute’s” $1500 Scholarship. He earned the “Meritorious Medal” for “Honor Roll”. Our PA State Representative, Matt Baker gave him a “Citizenship Award”! Jacob begins our grandchildren’s annual High School Graduation-march down the aisles for the next many years, exempting 2013!

We wish you a “Merry CHRISTmas 2011 & HAPPY New Year 2012”,

We wish you a “Merry CHRISTmas 2011 & HAPPY New Year 2012”,

We love this delightful time of the year, with all the ambient joy in the air, expressed by everyone,

all the celebrations, under our trees, at our tables, in our churches, schools, & businesses.

The precious CHRISTmas-spirit is filling our home & hearts, with celebration, excitement & love!

We are closest family and dearest friends & we cherish this relationship & our friendship!

We are wishing that you & yours are well.

We pray that you are filled with the meaning of these “HOLY Day’s”… CHRISTmas & New Years!

We, Duaine & Pamela Allen,

Express a great big, “WOW… Wow… wow…!”

We are finding it hard to believe that this Season came up fast, is happening and will be soon be over!

However, We impart our “Warmest CHRISTmas & New Year’s Greetings”

with you we are celebrating the Birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ & marking our calendars to His years!

This letter is our note to you, today, CHRISTmas EVE:

We salute you & yours with the merriest CHRISTmas & joyous New Year’s Greetings.

We share heart-warmth in the scriptures of this glorious reason for this season.

We celebrate nativity with joyous anthems, carols & choruses.

We revel in family, fun, festivities, frolics, functions & fellowships.

We muse in the lights, sights, sounds, chorals, parades, memories, & anticipations.

We value the celebrations of the children, the parents, & the grandparents, with all friends & family.

We exchange our gifts, loves, greetings, with meanings, dreams & empathies.

We celebrate His First Advent & His Second Advent…

Our celebration is renewed now in the vital excitement of both, HIS salvation, & HIS Kingship:

We are Discipled to Live HIS Life-Style:

We commemorate His way of life invitations, & We practice His discipleship provocations.

We trust His absolute truth dictums, as Mary, pondering the deeper meanings, of HIS teachings.

We opt to believe “His Absolute Word”, Words of our CREATOR, for He is our authority by conviction!

We opt not to believe “Man’s Relative Word”, words of vacillation & contrived opinions!

We adopt His “World-view” taught in “The Beatitudes”!

We adopt His “World-view” taught in “The Sermon on the Mount”!

Jesus Christ’s “Life, Way and Truth”, contrasts this World’s World-view, with HIS.

We share & bear responsibility for our world, circumstances & influences, while living now, like Jesus.

We care about:

The eternal over the temporal, The heavenly over the earthly,

The right & true over the wrong & false,

The convictions of the heart which supersedes all opinions of man & of the mind!

God’s principles & absolutes are Biblical Truth & always Victorious!

God’s “Truth” always triumphs!

The relativistic secular humanistic vacillations of manufactured carnal atheistic assumptions always fails!

We conclude, expressing these reassurances:

Of our fidelity in marriage, to our big & growing family, & to our widening circle of friends,

Of this happy, healthy & well-adjusted life, right now & full of bright hopes for the next,

Of our continued good fortune with

Of our ministry-calling commitments, intentionally fulfilling effective service in ministry,

Of our joy, pleasure & phenomenal satisfaction in grandchildren, children, in-law children,

Of our parents, siblings & families, & friends,

Of HIS provisions, for abundant food, shelter & clothing, therewith content,

Of our cherished recollections, reminiscences & heart-memories,

Of the stations of our ministry,

Of the places of residence, &

Of you, like all of the other wonderful people that enrich our lives.

We pray that we all may be filled with:

The wonder & awe of Mary ,

The faith & obedience of Joseph ,

The marvel & joy of the Angels ,

The eagerness of the Shepherds,

The persistence, gifts & wisdom of the Magi,

1. Gold for the Newborn King,

2. Incense for the Sacrificial Priest as the Lamb of God, &

3. Myrrh for God’s Fiery Prophet,

The peace of the Christ-Child,

The authority of His Prophetic Scriptures,

The power of His Priestly Prayers, &

The passion for His Kingly Reign.

En Theos En Agape

(In Dynamic Godly Enthusiasm & In Fervent Christian Love

We Celebrate Jesus Christ’s Birth & His Coming Kingdom)

From our Spirits to Yours, with our Love,

Duaine & Pamela Allen,

Isaiah 9:6-7 (New Living Translation)

For a child is born to us, a son is given to us.

The government will rest on his shoulders.

And He will be called: Wonderful Counselor, a Mighty God, Everlasting Father, & Prince of Peace.

His government & its peace will never end.

He will rule with fairness & justice from the throne of his ancestor David for all eternity.

The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will make this happen!

Philosophy of Ministry

This is my correct e-mail address to post to my retseleniaudnella.wordpress.com WebPage and WebLog directly with e-mail. picu403weqo@post.wordpress.com

I warn you, my Darling, Sarah Beth… “Tests, trials and temptations will come.”

I warn you Sarah Beth… “Tests, trials and temptations will come.”

My Dear Sarah Beth,

I just drove our van to the church with you, to deliver you for work, and when you disembarked you gave me one of your cute little “toodly-doodly” waves and a precious and delightful smile. I expressed to God what a blessing you are to mom and me. I thanked Him that we have such an excellent rapport. However, my heart senses your heart. You and I had sweet communion and pleasant conversation. But even though, there was uneasiness inside of me. I do not know that anything is remiss, and I cannot tell you more than this, but Sarah Beth I have a disquieting in my Spirit this afternoon. And I believe that the Lord is quickening my Spirit, and therefore I feel that I must write this letter to you. Though I am writing to you regarding absolute principles, I do not know of an immediate context, but I therefore share this with you for whenever it is most applicable in your own life and in your own opinion. Whether this message for you is for a general or a specific application, and for now or later, only God knows, but God compels me to write these thoughts to you, today! Do not let the message in this letter seem trite. The urgency upon my heart now is great!

I am even moved to tears of intercession.

Listen to the wise words of your ardent father. “Be on guard!”! “I warn you Sarah Beth, tests, trials and temptations will come.” For all you now know and for all you have already experienced you can and do testify with truthful and bold confidence, “I shall do, say, and be what is right!” Therefore, so you have and so you shall!

Our God says to us, (Phil 2:12 NLT) “Dearest friends, and you Sarah Beth, you were always so careful to follow my instructions when I was with you. And now that I am away you must be even more careful to put into action God’s saving work in your life, obeying God with deep reverence and fear.” (Rom 14:4 NLT) “Who are you to condemn God’s servants? They are responsible to the Lord; so let him tell them whether they are right or wrong. The Lord’s power will help them do as they should.” The tests, trials, and temptations that may intersect your path as you journey are there only to test you, to try you and to prove you GOOD!

Each one of the tests, trials, and temptations is progressively tougher, steeper, deeper, and rougher.

(1 Corinthians 10:12-15 NLT) “If you Sarah Beth, think you are standing strong, be careful, for you, too, may fall into the same sin. {13} But remember that the tests, trials and temptations that come into your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will keep the tests, trials and temptations from becoming so strong that you cannot stand up against it. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you will not give in to it. {14} So, my dear friend, and my dear daughter, flee from the worship of idols. {15} You are a reasonable person, Sarah Beth. Decide for yourself if what I am about to say is true.”

I warn you Sarah Beth… “Tests, trials and temptations will come.”
These tests, trials and temptations, are common to all, and they will happen to you. You are not immune. But God will always make a right way of escape for you, not easy but right!

Little Darling Sarah Beth, I do not know of anything to be wrong in your life right now, or I would turn around and go right back to you. I do not suggest that something is wrong in secret, but with this urgency in my spirit, I rather counsel you and warn you with urgency regarding life.

What yet lies in your paths out there in front of you, on yet untrodden turf can only be guessed at? Nevertheless, there will come tests, trials and temptations that will threaten to pull you up from your roots, or to remove violently your stable foundations, or to endeavor redirection, or to reindoctrinate you or to offer shorter detours.

However, be wise! “Stay your course!” Redetermine, reaffirm, and recommit to the call of God upon your life.” The enemies delight to offer to you tempting alternatives, to the known will of God!

When you stay close to God, when you stay deep in the Word, when you stay fervent in prayer and when you stay in harmony with peers, colleagues, friends, and with the adults, counselors and tutors, you are safest.

I do not prophecy such tests, trials, and temptations, but rather I warn you that some will come that will truly test you, try you and tempt you.

Your must be tested! You must be tried! You must be tempted! “Tests, trials and temptations will come” and they are GOOD! Sarah Beth, just decide, as always, before the tests, trials, and temptations come, to win with God!”

Love, LDad

I warn you Sarah Beth… “Tests, trials and temptations will come.”

Thinking on My Father’s Hands and Father’s Day! By Duaine Allen 05.27.2011

Thinking on My Father’s Hands and Father’s Day!
By Duaine Allen 05.27.2011

Today, while I was shampooing I watched the suds rinse off revealing my own hands as they gyrated in the shower spray rinsing, and was reminded of my father’s hands. I have been thinking of my father’s hands all day! During college vacations I enjoyed working at his mines for two summers, and rode with him fifty miles each way… at Minerva he pulled over and parked to wait for fellows who pooled with him, for many years… while we sat there together waiting, in the brilliant new morning sun, and our windows down, Dad’s hands were on the wheel, just resting there, catching my attention… to me, his hands were beautiful, strong, manly hands, handling the tough work his mining, & his family-farming required, and the gentle loving nurture I had observed those same strong soft hands bestow on his eight youngsters. His hands had guided each of us, in our due season, with steady unflinching purpose and resolve, with learned patterns expressing his wisdom, with strength explicitly imparting his character-traits, and with warmth and tenderness on strolls, walking, holding hands, as he loved to do, teaching as we went along his chosen path: on an old log-road, over a hill through the woods, or along the Mill Creek, or a field path or the Garnet Lake Road along our estate… using these occasions teaching us the wisdom of the ages, while picking berry’s from the large briers or a pot of dandelions, or catching ‘a mess of fish’ for the kettle and the eventing meal. I admired his hands on that particular morning-commute and pondered on them, thinking of the many days I had observed those hands holding the tools of the day, a hoe attacking the weeds in his garden, skillfully and dexterously, an axe splitting kindling or fire-wood, a pitchfork pitching from the mow to the manger, a sledge hammer for fence-posts or rending rocks, a Heavy-Duty Fence Tool Hammer-Pliers, mending fences, I observed those hands capable of about anything… and I sat there with him while he enjoyed the soft pleasant country music on his radio and realized I must be about the most favored kid, to have this man’s hands guiding, loving, and caring for me… Yep… Yessir… Yesserie… I am so blessed!
