Happy! Happy! Happy!

 I would like to share with you something that The Lord has laid upon my heart as I have been doing a study on True Happiness. While studying about happiness the following verses struck me "Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them." John 13:16, 17, which led me to Psalms 128:2, Psalms 144:15 and Proverbs 3:18.
Happy, Happy, Happy

  What is Happy?

Has the Enemy penetrated your Family's Lines of Defense?

   The Devil is very deceitful and cunning, as stated in Genesis 3:1a “Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made.” 

   Satan is still working behind the scenes. How does he creep into our lives and homes and rip them apart?

   I was a sniper in the USMC and sniper school is the hardest of all the military schools throughout the military. What you learn there and retain determines whether you live or die.

Heart Changes

I have been asked many times, what do we do to change these girls? It has been stated that we “brain-wash” them, force them to get saved or “cram” the Bible down their throat. After working with teens for as long as I have, I have come to realize that I CANNOT  MAKE them do ANYTHING they do not want to do. The reason they were brought to us, was because their parents/guardians could not get them to do what was right. They tried punishing, reasoning, guilting, etc, but to no avail, the teen is going to do what they want, UNTIL they come to realize that they no longer WANT to do it!

   On July 1, 2006 Circle of Hope Girls Ranch opened its door to 3 young troubled ladies. Over the last 5 1/2 years, we have received many calls from parents desperate for help. The problems that they are experiencing is heartbreaking, the young lady is on drugs, drinks alcohol, is involved with boys, is violent, has been in and out of counseling, is angry, bitter, hurt, has been abused, etc. These are just a few of the behaviors that have been mentioned in these calls. Many times, they have  “tried everything”(State homes, mental facilities, mind altering drugs, etc.
