Some things which seem insane to the world is normal in God’s Kingdom.
The world tells us we can never be close to God. We who know Him laugh at this lie.
The world says there is no God. Now, when we see our Love face to face who will be insane?
You think you are alone in this place of torment. There is a place, I tell you, where torment know no hope.
Have faith, little ones of God. You are Highly Favored.
By His Grace.
How hidious is the sin of this world. How full to over flowing is the corruption it produces. Speak to a worldly man of the beauty of a woman and his mind will become aflame with desires of all kinds. Speak to a man who is tasting the glory of God regarding the same thing and his mind will immediately be filled with disgust and hatred for such speech.
There is a moment coming when God will move from His Glorious Throne. At that moment all the noise of rebellion will be stopped! The next noise that sounds will be the sound of eternity. In this place there is One sound; Jesus. No more corruption. No more vile speech. No more filthy desires. No more hatred. No more greed. In a moment all the noise of this world will cease! And all who revel in this orgy of sin will become fuel for the fire.
Wake up! Look around you! What is not God is about to DIE! How long will you sleep in your rebellion?
By His Grace.
He sat to eat his bread, a daily ration given by merciful masters. He sat to eat his fill, one of three daily gorgings. Each remembering His God as he pondered the joy of his tongue. One thought of service to his God as he ate what would surely not fill his body. The other thought of his service to his God as he ate what would surely be too much.
God sees us all. He knows our state of affairs. Such things as above do exist. We would be fools to ignore that truth. But what shall be said of such things? I will offer this thought as food for the soul. We who serve the Living God await His teaching. Each serves as he knows best. And if that service is not enough for the expectations of some, then great is the loss to both.
The Lord taught me this saying as I learned about grief and suffering:
“When you are done doing what you do, you will have done your best. If you could have done better, it would have been done”.
To our joy, we realize we are accepted by Him where we are. And this prompts us to consider how we might serve Him better. To our shame, we realize that we are but fools who have been led into error by the very world in which we found birth.
Should the one who hungers judge he who eats? Saying, “He is sinning because he eats too much”. Should the one who has judge he who has not? Saying, “If he wasn’t so lazy he could gather what he needs”. Though it is good to share, he who receives and he who gives is the same in God’s eyes. May God bless our minds and hearts that we will refrain from judgment of each other. For it is said, “Who are you to judge another’s servant? To his own master he will stand. For the Lord is able to make him stand”.
By His Grace.
When we begin to come aware of our sinfulness, there is accompaniment of sorrow. I’ve learned to love that sorrow. Not that I appreciate my sin and remain in it because I like being sad. But there’s an aspect to understanding the need for Christ’s work in my life. It’s a continual reminder that the Holiness of God is so much more than we can know in our sinful state.
Paul said, for now we see as through a glass darkly. Then we shall know fully, even as we are fully known. This I look forward to with great expectation and joy. In the present, however, I feel the great sadness of being locked together with this sinful nature.
By His Grace.
One day in the dead of winter I came west across I-84 through Cheyenne, Wy. I came up to Elk Mountain pass (a very dangerous and fatal crossing for some). The Lord spoke to me in that tiny whisper of a voice. He told me to sit up in my seat, to tighten my seat belt, to hold the wheel with both hands. With the upcoming mountain and unknown before me, I obeyed gladly. He seemed to say He was about to take me through the pass. Happily, I gave Him my obedience. I’ve only been behind the wheel of this giant hunk of metal for a few months.
We encountered Elk Mountain with all it’s blowing gusts of wind against the trailer and tractor. The snow blowing side ways across the road so that you weren’t sure where the road was. The trailer threatening to leap off the side of the road and take you with it. Looking to the road with the shear ice covering it. Seeing a big rig against the cliff on the other side. Watching other rigs dash side to side as they slipped and were pushed by the wind. All the while, the peace of God was over me with complete calm. He and I meandered through the pass as if in the middle of summer. Down on the other side there was another 100 miles of packed snow on the road. All the way from Larime to Rock Springs we traveled.
On the other side of this chaos the tiny voice came to me again. “I brought you through the wind didn’t I”? I answered, “yes Lord”. I brought you through the drifting and blinding snow didn’t I”? I answered, “yes Lord”. “I brought you over the ice didn’t I”? I answered, “yes Lord”. “Behold, so it will be with you and I. I will take you to my paradise if you will but listen to me”.
And so it has been for me in that GREAT GOD JESUS.
By His Grace.
We: Live, Die, Face Judgment. Jesus or die twice.
