My Heart

-

 Do i give too much authority over this person?  did i trust someone who i really didn't know well?  did i spend enough time with that person to really become his friend?  My heart thinks.  My heart can think about things, just like my mind can.  i want to get to the point where i trust my heart more than my mind, if that's possible.  My adversary is always about.  Always stalking and ready to pounce and devour me.  i see the enemy in the people running the Motormouth Motel.  People spying on me... actually i am becoming more bemused than anything else.  Holy Spirit, You and i must be doing something right. Since i'm becoming more aware of thinking with my heart, i know You are filling me with joy.  You intercede for me.   You are the monitor and receptor for Yah's kind of love coming into my heart.

You are responsible for me seeing the spiritual realm, and if i couldn't then there would be be no hope.  i wouldn't know how to stop focusing on the darkness.  You've got me writing some serious love letters to You.  The Spirit of God brings boldness!  i saw Before The Wrath again recently and am more determined and more aware of being ready for the Bridegroom.  To have plenty of oil filled in my lamps.  i'm still wondering should i go to bed dressed up or in my underwear.  

...whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow.  for what is your life?  It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. - [James 4: 14-15] Yah, You alone know my future.  i admit that there are times i am going about my decisions under my own power and design.  Help me to strengthn my faith and trust in You.  In Jesus' name.  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...
