TRUST ALMIGHTY GOD: Doubt Is The Devil!






I Will Not Accuse God ... Foolishly!
I Will Tell The Story ... Truthfully!
I Will Sing God's Praises ... Joyfully
For
I Have Been, By Jesus Christ, Saved ... Sacrificially!

Doubting The Word Of God
Laid Me Out Cold
AND
I Became A Paid In Member Of
The Wilful Sinners Association
A Prominent Part Of The High Society Of
The Wayward-To-Damned Goat Herd!

I Was Strong ... Actually Weak!
I Was Bold ... Actually A Pip-Squeak
AND
I Was Sure ... Actually Uncertain
That I Did Not Need To Know Jesus Christ
The Great One Called The Door To Eternal Life!

I Had Keys!
I Opened Doors!
I Was Sinfully Lubricated
AND
I Had Felt Needs
So What Need Had I
Of Yet Another Door
When I Wouldn't Have Enough Time
To Fully Enjoy This Mortal Life?!

I Have Places To Go!
I Have Faces To See!
I Have Tracings To Make
AND
I Was Partying With The Ungodly
Until
The Day
The Life-Traffic Light Said
All At One Time:

STOP!

             CAUTION!
                                  GO!


AND

My Heart Said:

No!!
What!?!?

It Was Reckoning Time!
AND
The Savior Jesus Was Beckoning Me! 

I Was Going To A Lime
BUT
The Date Was Obviously - Now - Not Fine!

Why Now?!It Is The Time!

Why Here?!It Is The Place?!

Why You?!I Am Grace
AND
Mercy For You Holds No Disgrace!

The Conversation Was Long
BUT
Oh, So, Short! 

The Effect Was Lasting
AND
By God's Grace
Everlasting!

Mercy ... Free
AND
Grace ... Available Always To Me
Opened My Eyes
Unstopped My Ears
Broke Open My Heart
AND
Turned My Wayward Feet
To Walking The Right Way
AND
Away From The Dark
The Spaces That Leave Marks
Deep In The Soul
AND
Unto The Heart That Loves The Soul
Unto The Heart That Is Light
That Is Love
That Is Peace
That Is Rest
That Is Blessing
That Is Shelter
That Is The Life Of The Blessed
Unto To The Heart
That Is Now AND Forever
My Home
The Door Of My Salvation
The Very Door
Which In Times Past
I Had Studiously Ignored!

I Am Ashamed Of Yesterday!
I Am Humbled - Not Proud -
That I Have A Tomorrow
For
Pride Is The Path
That Brought Sin Unto Man
AND
Pride Has Not A Place
In The Living Kingdom
Of The Son Of Man!

I Desire Jesus Christ
Not The Pleasures Of The Flesh!
I Desire Christ
My Peace And My Rest
The Only One
In Whom
My Soul, Regenerated
Is Forever Blessed!

This IS The Secret
Of
Man's Only Success!
Don't Choose To Be A Worldling!
Choose To Believe!
Choose To Be By The Living God Blessed!


Trust Ye In The Lord ... Forever!
Don't Let Doubt
Cause You
From
Heaven
To Be Kept ... Out!
