Come, Jesus, Come

 Come, Jesus, come.  May more and more people begin to see the Light that can fill their darkness.  Touch their hearts so they don't resist and protest for as Satan himself dances in the leaves.  YAH, You are the reason i want to be nicer to people even my enemies.  Since You reveal Yourself by words and actions, my intentions and emotions belong to You alone.  i've seen where they want to blame Christians for the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, well, Nero burned Rome and blamed the Christians, too.  UAH, You want us to have an aggressive offense rather than a passive defense.  You want us to live our lives intentionally with the purpose of glorifying You--may we all be quick to use today's events to glorify You.


May we prepare for Jesus' return, ready to accompany as many of us so that we can all glorify You. May we all celebrate Your Resurrection every day!  YAH i do look up to You to be my provider so i don't need to cheat and steal and defraud.  What the world does with Truth is nobody's business but Yours, Abba Father.  Help me to continue adopting and giving to children so they have enough to eat and have shoes on their feet.  And let that purpose in of of itself glorify You.  

"The only thing that's taught one anything is suffering...the joy of understanding...coming in contact with what life really signifies..." - [Malcolm Muggeridge] Even at my age i'm quite capable of engaging in foolishness; i am like a child.  i am a child of God and i can no way despise when He chastens me even now.  There are times my soul is tied to porn and lustful fantasies can occur.  In some cases, they are getting worse.  Help me to take my thoughts and make them captive.  Help me, Lord, to catch myself before i go too far.  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...
