Smells Good Doesn't Mean Tastes Great!







The Longer We Spend Outside The Safe Fold
The Shorter Will Be Our Time To Knowingly Enjoy 
The Goodness And Grace Of The Lord Christ! 

Beloved, 

We Are Called To Soul Salvation 
And
We Need To Climb Up Higher On The Upward Way: 
Why Waste Time With Useless Things 
When We May Draw Closer To The Living God 
Each And Every Day!?! 

Know The Facts ...

All That Glitters Is Not Gold! 
Smell Good Doesn't Mean Taste Great! 
Beautiful Often Means Rotten 

And

Those Who Encourage You To Join Them In Bold Sin 
Cannot And Will Not Save You! 

Jesus Christ, The Forever Friend 
And 
Faithful Companion To Life's End
Calls, Cares, Keeps, Cleans, Comforts, Carries
And 
Consoles! 

He Asks, Answers
And
Accepts! 

He Loves, Leads
And 
Lifts! 

He Shepherds, Seeks, Saves, Sanctifies
And 
Seals! 

Be Comforted ...

Jesus Christ Died To Deliver Us From Death And Hell 
And
He Is Calling Us To Himself! 

Jesus Christ Is Everything We Need
All That We Desire 
And
More Than We Can Ever Think To Dream Of Or Acquire! 

Brethren, Beloved

Our Dear Savior Loves You Personally ... Intimately
With An Everlasting Love: 
Nothing ... Material Or Spirit 
Can Ever Separate You From His Everlasting Love! 

I Beseech Us All 
Please Do Not Permit What Presently Is 
To Deny You The Blessed Pleasure Of Certain Hope!
 
Let's Boldly Walk In 
And
Work Our Daily Gift Of Unfailing Faith 
And
Look Up To Rise Up 
To Meet Our Dear And Soon-Coming Lord In The Air!
The Trumpet Shall Sound!

The Pictue: Drawing Jesus ...!




Do You Believe And Abide In Jesus?


I Drew A Picture Of My Jesus
Nothing Fancy
Just Plain
But
True!
It Is The Masterpiece Of My Believing Heart
AND
I Am Sharing It With You!

His Head Is Love!
His Hands Are Mercy And Grace!
His Feet Are Justification And Salvation!
His Spilt Blood Is That Which Washes Away Sin 
AND
Redeems!
His Hair Is White Wool That Cleans
AND
His Eyes As Fire Sears Away My Sin 
AND
Blocks The Liar
That Devil
Bold Satan Unclean!

His Mouth Holds A Sword
That Cuts Out All Lies And Discords!
His Ears Are Attuned To Even My Silent Cries
AND
If You Look Close
You Will See A Broken Heart
Healed
Beating Its Boast:

Salvation For The Lost Lamb!

It Was Worth My Willingly-Paid Cost!

As You Can See
To The Grand Artist
My Picture Is Quite Lame
BUT
To Me
It Shows Me Who Carries My Blame
AND
My Shame!
I Don't Need The Picture
But Nevertheless 
I Drew It!

My Picture Is Drawn By A Child Of The Father
Who Chooses No More With Sin To Be Bothered
For
Believing Faith Knows
That The Living God
The Almighty Father 
Holds 
His Trembling Child's Hand In His Own!

Satan May Oppress Me
BUT
Satan Can't Possess Me!
Satan May Make Noise
BUT
His Is Not The Voice
That This Once Lost Lamb Is Following
To The Eternal Kingdom Of Light
Where
At The Appointed Time
With All The Overcoming Saints
At Our Physical Arrival
Almighty God And Holy Angels
In Joyous Celebration
Shall Rejoice!
And Rejoice!

I Abide In Christ
AND
By God's Grace
I'll Bear A Light
AND
Do My Best
To Also Be A Light
In The Darkness
That My Real Jesus
Died To Defeat By His Word!
His Life!
His Light!
The Eternal Truth! 

Oil
In The Lamp
Will Keep It Burning!

**--**--**--**


Spirit Of The Living God

Fall
Afresh
On Me
And
Help Me
To The Glorious Kingdom
To Keep Faithfully Walking!
