Sharing the Gospel

Talking with the Lord tonite He gave me something to ponder: “Every man is dry ground.  He is neither plowed, planted, nor rained upon”.   It took me quite a while to unravel that one.  

In sharing the Good News of Jesus with others we often make a classic blunder.  We assume they know what we’re talking about.  After all, Jesus is and has been the focus of so many debates and conversations over the centuries.  “How could they not know”?  But what the Lord has said is true.  If we believe they do know what we know about Jesus, and they still disobey Him we fall into judging one another.  It is important that a man or woman of God refrain from prejudging.  Especially when trying to share the Gospel. 

The Lord always gives something ponderous to ponder, doesn’t He.

What Are You Waiting For?

When I had walked the fullness of my ability I found I was no farther than at first. 

It was not till He taught me to listen to His voice that I found my steps to move me. 

We will not find salvation in the religion of our chosing. 

After all, look around you, how many religions can you count? 

Where shall a man turn to find the “truth”? 

JESUS!  JESUS!  JESUS!

Now that I know what He had in store for me all those decades I wonder. 

What was I waiting for?

You heard the news and thought with joy.
What wonders might this be?
I bekoned you to come and see.
“Come play with this new toy”.
The news you heard was not from there.
It comes from up above.
I bid you take from Holy hands,
This Great and Precious Love.

By His Grace.

“Watch Over My Soul Lord. . . . . . please…..”

We wake and yawn from a nights helpless sleep.

We prayed the night before our souls that He should keep.

And now we see a future pressed out before our eyes.

Another day has dawned.  Yet much to our surprise.

It is no different than the one before; this day of possibilities.

For we have not changed.  We are the same; a mess of liabilities.

We trust You Lord, our lips were heard to say.

“Can I trust You” the answer comes, “With holiness this day?”

How shocked we’ll be when His Dawn fully comes.

That we wasted so much time.

We traded dirt for gold and dross for coins

Yet He remains sublime.

By His Grace.

Abrupt and Ceaseless Silence.

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.

A Wonderful Depression

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.
