The Lord Is Strong ... For Obedient-You!





"Why Me!?" 
Is 
A Favored Expression Among Men When Life Goes South 
And 
It Seems That The Devil's Minions Are Chewing Our Liver! 

Beloved, 

Be Warned: 
Disobedience Costs! 

When We Dare To Walk In Our Own Counsels
According To Our Own Understanding
Doing What Pleases Our Selves 
Because Of 
Vanity, Arrogance 
And 
Pride
We Act Foolishly 
And
Receive The Fool's Portion! 

Did Not The Fool Say In His Heart That 
There Is No God!?! 

Both Cream 
And
Rotten Eggs 
Rise To The Top And Float 
And 
Receive Abundant Attention: 
The Rotten Eggs Get Destroyed! 

The Lord, Our Shepherd
The King, Our Judge
Is 
Watching
Is 
Seeing
And 
Working With Love! 

The Lord Chastises
The Ones That He Loves!

The Work That We Do Will Commend 
Or
Condemn Us 
So Think Twice ... Even Thrice
When You Put Stumbling Blocks In The Path Of Your Brethren
When You Stand Against Truth
When You Choose Feelings Over Faith
When You Choose To Do The Work Of The Adversary Of Souls, Satan
And 
Bring The Good Lord's Name Into Disgrace! 

Don't Dig Your Grave With Your Teeth 
Or 
Burn Down Your Own House With Your Tongue! 
Do Right!
Love With Your Head, Heart And Hands 
And 
Be At Peace!

The Principle Pleasure





At The Age Of My Majority
I Started Walking Toward The By-Pass Bus!
The Elders Weren't Too Happy
AND
Of Course
Started To Kick Up A Fuss
BUT
I Was My Own Person!
I Could See My Own Way
AND
Nobody Was Going To Tell Me
How
In This World
I Was Going To Play!

My Majority To Me
Meant
My Own Authority!
I Was Intent Upon Getting Away From The Don't Can'ts
Even If It Meant
Ending Up In A Nest Of Ants!

Well ...

As Life Would Have It
In The Instant I Said:

"I Wish ...!"

There Was A Whole Bunch Of Predators
Waiting
To Eat Me
Like A Dish Of Well-seasoned Baked Fish!

One Offered Pleasure!
One Offered Pleasure Through Pain!
One Offered Pleasure Pain To Get Enormous Gain!
One Offered Pleasure Pain Gain
AND
Enormous Acclaim
BUT
None Offered Me A Way
To Get Out From Under Sins' Stains
FOR
In Order To Get The Benefits
Of A Life Filled With
"Do As I Please!"
Meant
I'd Have To Sell My Soul
To Gain
What I Could Plainly See Was
Nothing But
Perishable Gold!

I Had Received From My Parents
A Foundation
Built On The Rock
AND
Because Of That Blessing
I Didn't Run Too Far From God's Flock!

I Made Terrible Mistakes!
I Made A Fool Out Of My Self
BUT
I Always Knew How To Say
"No!"
When It Came To Make The Decision
That Would Make Me A Pretty Dead!

I Was Oft Unfaithful To God
BUT
All The While
He Is Faithful To Me
AND
I Kept Hearing That Voice
Saying:

"Child, Come! 
Come Home To Me!"

I Couldn't Out-run It!
I Couldn't Buy It Off!

So ...

One Day I Said Plainly:

"Please Get Me Off Of This Path."

AND ...

The Faithful Father
Took Me At My Word!
He Drew Me
AND
He Wooed Me
Showing
How Wrong Ways Can Be Reversed!

I Took The Word Of The Master
For He Is Saving Me From Eternal Disaster!
I Have Bumps Marks Scrapes
I Even Wear Wound Plaster
BUT
I Am Free
To Be
What The Lord
Needs Me To Be
AND
Come High Bidder
On Low Ways
By God's Grace
I Quote A Very Nice

This Is What My God Says:


***************

Life May Be Good
BUT
Jesus Christ Will Make It Better
AND
In The Glorious Day
We Shall See True Life
At God's Declared Best!!

Wait For It!

VESPERS AT THE END Of THE SABBATH: People! Wake Up! Almighty God Ain't No Fool!







My Almighty God IS Just!
I was HUMBLED!

My Almighty God IS Gracious!
I am RESTORED.




Many are The Ways
In which We Weave
Chords - Cords of Music -
To bring us, Humbled, to Our Knees!

We - Bold and Arrogant - think Self Grand and
Behave as though 
God and Human
Pitch Marbles on Hard Sand!

Look at Yourself!
Jaundiced, Petty, Judgmental, Unkind
Living as though You and God
Have a Meeting of The Minds
Where You do The Talking
He Listens - and Obeys
And Gives You Nice Trinkets
To Block Correction from Your Ears!

You Lift Your Head -
Arrogant!

You Stiffen Your Spine -
Back Square!

You Hawk up the Phlegm of Cold Heart 
And You Spray
Acid and Bile
Hatred and Strife
As You Stick a Sharp-pointed, Dull Knife into Your Brother and 
Hug Him as He Suffers Horribly ... and Dies!

You Go to The House of Assembling!
You Say All the Right Words!
Your Hands in your Pockets -
The Cat ... at Your Feet ... Purrs
As You Utter Sardine
And Yourself Eat Beefsteak
And Tell all The People
Payday ain't Got No date!

You Lie, Cheat and Steal!
You Maneuver, Meddle and Make
All Sorts of Deals with The Devil -
Your Pretty Sweet Date
Who, with Great Malice
Strokes You, and Fake Smiles
And Thinks Fondly of What She Will Do
To Make you Lie while you Wait to Slowly Die!

You Act like The Idiot!
You Smell of The Goat!
Your Name Must be Judas - You're Wearing 
His Coat 
Of Betrayal
Of Wanton Greed for Small Non-gain!
Take Care You don't Get Tarred Marked 
With his Same Pay 'n Black Paint!

You Walk like The Christian
You Waddle like The Duck
Be Careful
You May End Up 
Like The Chicken that Gets Plucked
Or - Worst Yet - like The Goose
Who Done Get Herself Picked!
Stop Being a Useless Heathen -
Experience got Tricks, and 
Share Licks!

The Time for Repentance
Confession and Rebirth
Is when The Four Winds of Strife
Are being Held Back -
Off The Earth!

Stop Playing with That Kitty!
Kitty has got Sharp Claws -
She does Scratch - and
When She Sinks ALL Her Claws in You
There ain't a Fellow that's Going To Do Jack
To Help You
To Save You
To Comfort You
To Care!
The Good God You've Been Abusing
Sits in Yon Judgment Chair!

God Does Not Play Favorites!
He Does Not Bend Rules!
He has a "Big Stick"
To Belabor The Backs of 
Confident, Educated Fools
Who Think He is Foolish
Who Believe He Can't See
Who Reason His Looking Out for Humans
Is Way Beneath He!

Get a Grip of Your Self
Sit Down on Your Company Chair
Jesus Christ is Returning
Whether or Not You Care or Fear!

God has is Keeping Good Records!
The Angels Keep Watch, hear!
Trust God for Your Cleansing
Or Your End will be
Out There
Amongst The Dogs and Whoremongers
Fornicators
Lovers of The Life
Licentious, Immoral
Repent!
Or You Die
Forever
For Always
Separated from God
You are not The Big Wheel
You are only a Cog! Get New Life!

Confess All Your Evil!
Repent Like You Care!
Seek Salvation like it's Nourishment
It's Free! Take it ... IF You Dare!

God is YOUR MAKER!
You didn't Make Yourself!
Bow to Him - He's Your Master Maker -
And be healed ...
You can't Heal Yourself!
