The Best, Most In-depth Biography of My Lord

-

 i could hear the demonic evil as she slithered through the hallway upon arrival.  i could sense her evil while walking before her vehicle passed me by, stalking.  Dipping, dapping, not knowing what's happening.  Too worldly, too proud, too loyal to her master, money.  i caught her once counting her money.  The Lord is walking with me, making me aware of the adversity and phoniness and deceitfulness.  i must keep learning about my Lord.  What better way than to read His biography.  i love reading biographies.  The Bible is the best, most in-depth biography of my Lord.

If i wanted somebody to be in a conversation with me, i'd prefer her to start off with the question, "So you trust me?"  i would tell her no, and that would be the end of the conversation.  "God has more faith in you than i ever could have!"  Lord, my soul thirsts for You.  My flesh longs for You in this country of spiritual drought.  i seek You in whatever sanctuary i could find.  You're comforting me right now as i sit here thinking about the evil outside my door.  You are with me in this sanctuary.  

Thank You for favoring me.  You are the reason i feel joy.  Nothing else matter.  Nobody else matters.  You're intervening right now.  i'm feeling comfort and peace and serenity right now and only You can sustain it.

When I remember You on my bed, I meditate in the night watches. --[Psalm 63:6]  i am of good cheer.  You have overcome this motel...!...i acknowledge You so direct my paths!

 As He taught them a shadow of the cross fell across the old testament and their "eyes were opened."  He was that ram at Abraham's alter.  He was that spotless Passover Lamb whose blood was shed to bring freedom from slavery and deliverance from death.  He was that scarlet thread that hung out Rahab's window.  The Shepherd King:  David spoke so much about Him in the Psalter.  He was Isaiah's suffering servant, the fourth man in the furnace with Shadrach, Meshash, and Abed-Nego.  And yet He will never vanish from my sight unless i allow it.  Jesus' purpose isn't to push Himself onto anyone.  As humans, as mortals, He wants us to come to Him.  That's probably the only Hunger He ever has!  Is for us to come to Him.  i was the other disciple walking along the road to Emmaus.  i've gone from the road to Damascus to the road to Emmaus.  i've been writing about what Christ has done for me. Praise goes to the Lord! ...

Having Seen the Lord on the Road

 1 Timothy:  Make sure no other doctrine is taught, no fables which cause dispute, where there is no godly edification. Timothy, prevent the spread of false teaching. Legalists cannot mix law and grace.  They engage in idle talk, having strayed with their meaningless babble.  The law is not made for the righteous person, but for the lawless, ungodly, unholy, and profane, something of which i was guilty for so long and even have the temptation to fall back into the pit from time to time.  i obtained God's mercy because i committed those wrongs in unbelief, or as a back-slider and as someone prone to worldly and fleshly desire and lust. Now i believe in Jesus Christ and only by His grace will i obtain everlasting life.  Grace by faith and trust in Him.  In Him alone.  If i were to be a young man's mentor, i would want to be a quiet encourager, a serene influence, i would want to interest him by saying as little meaningless babble as possible and lea...

When I Haven't Removed the Plank From My Own Eye

Heavenly Father, help me align myself to Your will.  Shall i take advantage of the free time and begin at the seminary?  Could i use this motel room as a sanctuary despite the distractions?  Please help me before idolatry decays my soul any further.  Don't let this defeating habit in my life rob me of my confidence in Your power to give me victory over sin making me hesitant to offer Christ as the answer to others controlled by sin.  Don't let this habit destroy my incentive to share my faith because of feeling like a hypocrite.  How could i witness to others when i haven't removed the plank from my own eye? --[Matthew 7: 1-5] Sin always results in death of some kind. It is worth the continual struggle to combat temptation.  The awful, never-ending process of combating temptation is God's means of maturing me and confirming me to the image of Christ.  To throw my hands up in defeat is to abandon the process and to miss out on life's most important...
