oh, its my turn to pray that you receive your youth training center..after all, you give so much of your self

take a break for your family and your self, we can now post our prayers here instaed of filling your mail box.. hehe];;

i have seen all the youth sites you guys have placed on the net for free.. many kids are in need of a place to hang out and you are providing it.. and providing many blessings beyond what you are aware of.. i read some of the posts here.. and it is only one day.. i see that there are others
whom have witnessed the faith through your ministry.. it counts to have good christian men and woman like your ministry has.. i received that blessing you spoke of..  amazing but true and great and so i witness the living father.. thank you rock and all..

I cannot believe you took the time to write and do it when I knew you were working twenty hours a day. In fact, I showed the last letters to my friend and he said look, the times!

Yes, I told him, when ever I got the urge to go and get some stuff I wrote you and I never ever did not receive a letter almost right away.

Well:

I received my tests and I passed 100%. 6 months of DRUG FREE BLISS!!

THANKYOU THANK YOU THANK YOU YES! JESUS FOR BEING THERE AND HAVING PEOPLE LIKE THE YOA PEOPLE TO WORK IN YOUR NAME!

thank you rock

yup

you-know-why

It has been a year and a half since I first wrote to you about my problems with gangsters. I had been taught by the mormon faith for twelve of my 17 years and then was introduced to a new and what looked exciting world of drugs sex and guns. As a girl hanging with the crew I was allowed
to think that I was special. Even when I allowed that false security and my emotions to give my very self to so many of those guys who acted so tough and seemed cool. Before I knew it I was doing drugs and sleeping with so many men I never even remembered what they looked like let alone what
I did.

And then I came across your site. It was like a fluke or something, until that first letter when you said it was God whom was telling me it was time to get my act together. I must admit, when I received that reply from you I first had missgivings. I thought you were thinking you were way cool
and nothing bothered you and you were right to the point.

Yet I could NOT sleep that night and stayed awake the entire night till I got the courage to go to the one girl I could trust who had the only computer in the neighborhood to write you once more. I needed that direct responce, the encouragement and the will to believe I was special and God
had a plan for me.

Your second letter was the hook that caught the devil in me.

Rock, thank you. And so much will I remember that God LOVES me cause you showed this to me in your constant writing and encouragement. I still sometimes cannot grasp the reason behind my first letter, but the ending suits me just fine. For now I know Jesus. And I have been living a good life
and attending a baptist church in texas.

thank you and do not worry about those men who took your book, yes I read it tonight and am so sorry that you never tell us your prayers and needs. But I now know that with God all is possible for he changed my life and I know he will change them for He knows what you are doing
and I told him what you did for me.

I am crying now and so I will go. But my tears are of joy for you and yours and me and all who I will tell this exciting news to.

Thank you rock for being REAL and PULLING no punches and STICKING with me through this past YEAR and a HALF!

**************************

yea, I like whad I seez its a breeze.

Thanks for posting my poetry. Seems you guys have awarded many, uplifted many and helped many but the replys are slim at best. This I know cause I ain't writen you.. cause I ain't missing you..,

gonna write a song.. Yup. But what I am saying is that many KNOW THAT YOU do so much and they must appreciate you but they never find time TO THANK YOU. why do I know this.. cause I ain't writtemn you, cause I ain't missing you, cause you done went and did everything already for me..sounds just right, not the verse but the fact of the verse. If that makes any sents..you have set up 160 free sites and nearly built every page for free. So what up.. as you say, Rock, I want to thank you for WWTM.

that site is way cool for teens and you have helped so much.

wwtm.youthofamerica.org was set up and designed for free people by Mr. Rock for you and us, so, give no fuss, and do not catch a bus, for in God we TRUST to deliver the GOODS as in GOOD BOOK and GOOD EX BAD GUYS WHO DO IT TO THE DEVIL>..

thank you rock, but you made your first mistake, we can NOW POST OUR THANKS instead of our WANTS! and there is nothing you can do except read it and weep with JOY to know you are doing SO much for SO many.

UNLESS YOU REMOVE THIS NEW PAGE and I think you will not do that cause you NEVER remove a darn page...

Just a note to let you know I'm praying for you. The
scripture says that a good name is to be chosen above gold. You, like me, have written your life in a book for others to read, to be used by Jesus to touch others, to tell people who you are.

The best days of ministry are ahead for you. Thanks for being a friend to
this old warrior here too. Takes one to know one. You're the real thing.

Your brother
Greg Reid

The page for us is a true blessing. It's after 12pm here so the kiddos havent seen their pages yet, but i am sure that they will truely think they are special.

I appreciate the "Special Mom Award". It was a true encouragement, as your ministry is.

Please know that you and your ministry continue to be in my prayers. SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!

*A Poem of God's Grace *

I did not know His love before,
the way I know it now.
I could not see my need for Him,
my pride would not allow.
I had it all, without a care,
the "Self-sufficient" lie.
My path was smooth, my sea was still,
not a cloud was in my sky.

I thought I knew His love for me,
I thought I'd seen His grace,
I thought I did not need to grow,
I thought I'd found my place.
But then the way grew rough and dark,
the storm clouds quickly rolled;
The waves began to rock my ship,
I found I had no hold.

The ship that I had built myself
was made of foolish pride.
It fell apart and left me bare,
with nowhere else to hide
I had no strength or faith to face
the trials that lay ahead,
And so I simply spoke His name
and bowed my weary head.

His loving arms enveloped me,
and then He helped me stand.
He said, "You still must face this storm,
but I will hold your hand."
So through the dark and lonely night
He guided me through pain.
I could not see the light of day
or when I'd smile again.

Yet through the pain and endless tears,
my faith began to grow.
I could not see it at the time,
but my light began to glow.
I saw God's love in brand new light,
His grace and mercy, too.
For only when all self was gone could
Jesus' love shine through.

It was not easy in the storm,
I sometimes wondered why.
At times I thought, "I can't go on."
I'd hurt, and doubt, and cry.
But Jesus never left my side
He guided me each day.
Through pain and strife,
through fire and flood
He helped me all the way.,

And now I see as ne'er before
how great His love can be
How in my weakness He is strong,
how Jesus cares for me!
He worked it all out for my good,
although the way was rough.
He only sent what I could bear,
and then He said, "Enough!"

He raised His hand and said, "Be still!"
He made the storm clouds cease.
He opened up the gates of joy
and flooded me with peace.
I saw His face now clearer still,
I felt His presence strong,
I found anew His faithfulness,
He never did me wrong.

And now I know more storms will come,
but only for my good,
For pain and tears have helped me grow
as nothing ever could.
I still have so much more to learn
as Jesus works in me;
If in the storm I'll love Him more,
that's where I want to be!

blessing to thee,
