Super Christian!?




Your broad hat nearly took out my eye!
Your high heel nearly severed a toe!
The baubles on your dress dug a hole in my side
And, Lady, I must confess that your words
To sweet, old  Brother Joe were offesive
And they have me feeling mighty sore
Since you say that you’re a super Christian -
Which designation the Holy Bible doesn’t spell -
And your current behavior, my Sister, is that of a bat outta hell!

Gizmos and gadgets do not a Christian make!
Loving grace, and a quiet spirit
Is all that it really takes
To point a dying soul to The Lord Of Love Has No Limits!
So take off your war paint, and
Lower the volume of your voice!
Look to the Lord Jesus, and learn to rejoice
For the soul who is reaching for His Savior to find
And get a grip on yourself - your behavior is asinine
And behave like a real Christian
Like Jesus Christ in really thine!

Today is a new day!
Another opportunity to a good example set
And stop misbehaving! You're acting like a whelp!
Jesus gives the victory over all that besets!
So take a page out of my book
And seriously get yourself some help!

I once was just like you!
But, bless Jesus, I have changed
Or else, believe me, I tell you
I would rearrange your face with my shoe!

You don’t kick little puppies
And you don’t survive on lies!
So get thee behind me, you child of Satan!
You’re making me itch like I’ve got hives!

Father, have mercy on us Your people
Satan is walking among us today!
Lord, oh how we're being led astray!
Renew in us gentle spirits!
In straight paths Lord, let us glide!
Lord, give faith to the faithful, and
Lord, let Your sweet love in us all abide
For we are fast, fast, failing, and
The searching soul we depress!
The needy is seen as an eyesore, and
The poorly dressed is to us a laugh fest!
Have mercy, Dear Lord, I beg You!
Please renew us! Please make Thou us clean!
And while you are at Your remaking, Dear Father
Start with me, and that wicked Isalene!

Dear Ones:

A simple question: What example have we set OR are we setting for those seeking after our Master?

I sincerely pray that it is the example that says "I'm a Child of The King of Love who shepherds me!"

Let's think on this!

The Bible Is Full Of Bread




My Bible is a pillow
That is full of bread
It heals, sustains and leads me
And comfortest my head!

What nonsense am I talking?!
No, my Friend! I am no fool!
If you will listen for a moment
I will tell you a story true!

My Old Granny gave me a Bible
When said she that I was of an age
To know the right, the wrong and the ugly
It listed all on its page!

The Bible had stories of adventure
Idolatry, carnage and hard bondage
It contains stories of love and redemption
And even a High King sacrifice on a page!

Granny said the Bible is good for what ails me
No matter what situation I’m in
I only have to pray: “God help me!”
And read the words of the Sage!

The Bible has no pedestrian magic
It contains no sleight of hand
But it contains miracles of abundance
Straight from the Son of Man!

This Bible has food for the hungry
It tells of the raising of the dead
It tells of compassion for the unhealthy
And fixes those with demons in the head!

My Book contains all the wisdom of the wisest
King to ever have lived
It contains stories of great and fearsome dragons
And the King who kills them dead!

But in all the stories contained there
My favorite by far is the one
That tells that if I walk the straight and narrow
I will be exempted from the Judgment Bar!

It asks me to confess and repent of
All the wrong that I have done
And ask the Father by His Spirit to forgive me
Through the Blood of His Beloved Son
That covers and cleanses me from
The past, and the present, too
I just need to daily give Him my will
And I will walk holy too!

It promises that though I walk through The Valley of The Shadow 
I have nary an evil to fear
For The Savior is walking beside me
And He keeps every foe at bay!

And then one day that is coming
The King of Love, and Heaven’s throng
Will burst through the rolling scroll
And there will be triumphant singing
Which will be very,very loud
From all those who have kept the commandments
And maintained their souls in the Light
Joined by those of the Saints of all ages
Raised from the rest of the long night
To wing their way up to Home in Glory
Led by their King, Prince Immanuel
Where each will receive a crown that is golden
And find rest, and be eternally loved, and fed!

So, here! I have a bible for you!
Make it your very best friend as
It will comfort, guide, and sustain you
For it truly is Life-carrying Bread!

So you see that I am not lying
My Bible is no book of the dead
My Bible is living, dynamic, and its
Where I go to be led, comforted and fed!

Bold Sinners



Bold Sinners


They sin by day, they sin by night
They see no reason not to fight
The Holy Spirit is calling them
To repentance – but He has no hold on them?!
Or so they say!


They please no man, they please no friend
On Jesus Christ they don't depend
They want to know what good for them God has ever done
And proudly walk away seeking more mischief to run!
Against people they believe defenseless!


And when they've filled their cups to overflowing
Almighty God checks their balances to see their owings
And when they see the price to be paid
They think that He has some great mistake made!
God doesn't use accountants! God has Recording Angels!


O fickle fate! A fateful fit
Is what they have, when they receive the initial hit
But proudest sinners that they be
See no reason to bow down to the King, whoever he!?
The King of Love!


So, then, for their pride, their intentional arrogance
The humbling hand of God upon them is felt
Until they acknowledge that God Almighty o'er all rules
The choice is theirs – bow, bend or break – they get to choose!
You love God - Bow before Him!
You know you are a sinner - Bend to His Will!
You are your own god ... Break ... Good night.

Dear Ones: 

Let us be careful how we walk about this earth. All of our decisions have consequences - not just for now, but as it pertains to New Earth. So, I beg you, please answer the Savior when He calls you, while His hand of chastening is light, and while you've got an opportunity your life to renew! We are assuredly running out of "play" time!


HUMBLE YOURSELF BEFORE GOD

FOR

YOU DID NOT MAKE YOURSELF!
