He Protects His Children

-

 Heavenly Father, protect Your child, Karen Niecestro and make her cancer -free for by Your stripes she is already healed and no longer needs radiation or chemo for her brain is healed, healthy, and normal in Jesus' name.  Amen

i have been ungodly and have sinned and fall way short of the glory of God, no matter my achievements, if any, for any achievement now must be according to Your will, Heavenly Father.  My faith in the atonement of Jesus grants me any righteousness.  Any works on my part are not to be blessed but are done because i am blessed by Jesus's finished mission on the cross and by His resurrection.  He has destroyed the works of a fleeing devil.  May His seed remain in me for i am but a child of God who guides me into loving my brethren.

Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.  But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works."  Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works." - [James 2: 17-18]

Christ didn't need to die ever again.  It is i who must be born again.  May He perfect me, for i cannot be perfect standing on my own.  When it comes to Him, i am no free agent anymore.  Thank You, 
Christ, for coming into history and for accepting my modes of worship, whether it be kneeling, sitting, taking a walk or riding a bus, it's a matter of the heart and thank You for bringing Your holy spirit into my heart.  Be sure to dwell in Karen's ... Amen

Broiled Fish and Some Honeycomb

 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...
