VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Trust The Process!?!

KJV 2 Peter 1:4
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

It Was An Art Tutorial On How To Draw 
A Rather Complex-Looking Pine Cone!
The Tutor Said That It Was Going To Be Hard To Do 
AND THEN Said: 
"It Isn't So Much That It Is Going To Be Hard 
But That You Are Going To Have To Trust The Process!" 

The Words Stopped Me Dead In My Tracks 
And 
I Heard Myself Saying: 
"But THAT Is How It Is With The Lord! 
We Have To Trust That He Will Do What He Says He Will Do
Believing That He Is The Promise-Keeping God!" 

Beloved, 

Has The Devil, Your "Friends," Your Sure-Foes
And 
The Worldly-Wise Pleasure-Loving Hoardes 
Who Are The Enemies Of Truth, Right-Living
Humility
And 
Reformation By Grace Through Faith 
Got You Believing That Your Case Is Hopeless
That Your Efforts Are Futile
That Jesus Christ Doesn't Want Dirty Sinners 
But Desires Clean Saints One Of Whom You Are Not!?! 

I've Got News For You: 

"All The Clean Saints Were Once Dirty Sinners! 
They, By Faith, Chose To Trust The Lord At His Word
Answered His Call To Life
Confessed And Repented Of Their Known Sin
Accepted Almighty God's Forgiveness
Went Down Into The Watery Grave Of Baptism
And Rose Up To Walk In The Newness Of Life!" 

Hallelujah, Jesus! 

See!?! 

Process Followed: 
Progress Attained! 

Dear Ones, 

Please Listen To The Lamb That Forever Lives 
And Not To The Damned Liar Headed For The Lake Of Fire! 

All That Our Blessed Jesus Said That He Will Do
He Will Do ... For You! 

Believe The Wise Word
Trust The Process As Promised
And 
Always Choose To Obey The Lord!
Jesus Saves! 
Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: ENCOUNTERING CHRIST: Be Salt!







The Old Saw Says: 

"Whatever Is In The Olde Goat
Is In The Kiddie!"
 
We Act According To Our Nature 
And 
We Live What We Learn

And Then 

As Consenting Adults 
- Wisely Or Unwisely -
We Eagerly Practice Patiently 
What We Willingly Choose To Pursue! 

Beloved, 

We May Have Been Born With Sinful
Variable, Changeable, Natures 
But
When We Encounter The Lord Christ 
And 
Place Our Hands In His Holy Hands
And
Choose To  Follow Him 
Through The Diligent Exercise Of 
Enduring, Working, Faith 
And 
Unceasing Prayer 
With The Holy Spirit Doing The Effectual Good Work In Us
We Get Rid Of The Old Sinner Man
And
Become A Blessed Saint Of God And Christ 
As, With Enduring Patience, We Await The Day 
When Our Change Comes 
And 
We Become Like Him Who Created Us! 

We Are What We Eat 
And 
We Get Fleas From Where We Sleep!

We Have Free Will And Free Choice
And
No Created Being Can Make You Serve God
And
No Created Being Can Make You Serve The Devil! 

The Lord Of Life Won't Make You Serve Him
And
The Damned Devil Can't Make You Serve Him! 

Let Us Choose Our Walking Path Wisely And Righteously! 
Let Us Endeavor From This Day Forward
To Make The Exercise Of Faith 
And
The Practice Of Constant Praying 
Our Steady, Unchangeable, Diet!
 
With The Great God's Grace Covering Us
Let Us Freely Choose To Pray More 
And
Let Us ... With Confidence
Dare To Request An Increase In Our Daily Gift Of Faith
Which Shall Surely Be Tried: 
What Jesus Gives That We Utilize Can Never Fail Or Fail Us! 

Beloved, 

Let The World Know Whose Child You Are
And
Show Them The Light That Is Guiding Us
To The Glorious City Of The Forever Blessed! 
Be Salt! 

Jesus Christ's Peace
Is
Pure!

FOR YOUR SELF: Think, Think, Think!

In This Day Of Liberality
It Is An Offence
- It Appears -
To Offend The Powers That Be
For
It Seems
That To Go Against The Party's Best Line
Is Taken As A Gross Affront
To That, That Wants To Be
- But Is Not -
Lord God Divine!

Unto All Men
By Sheer Dint Of Birth
Is The Right
To Do
AND
To Choose
AND
Man's God-Given Free Will
Is Not
Decanter-Dispensed
Premium
Mind-Numbing Booze
Distributed Only To Those
With Reach
Grasp And Hold
Who Are
Connected And Engaged
AND
Not Given To Public Burping
Or Picking Of The Nose!

To All
AND
To Sundry
Listen Well As I Declare:


I Do Not Have To Agree With You To Like You
Neither Does My Disagreeing With You
Say That I Hate You!
I Was Born By Myself!
I Think For My Self!
Group-Think Is Not
An Interest Of Mine
So
Please Have Me Excused
For
My Mind Is My Own
Compliments Of
The Living Holy God
True Just 
Faithful
Ever-Giving
And
Eternally Kind
And
I Do Not Feed Into
The Take-Up Popular-Friend
Fire-Rage
'Cause I Don't Want To Walk Alone
Game Tone!

To Those Who Are Faithful Christians Called 
You Should Be Made Aware
That At This Time Of The End
You'd Better Know The Source Of
The Voice That You Choose To Hear!

The Master Requires All
To Stand In Truth
AND
Walk In Light
Doing No Unrighteousness
As We 
For Our Own Soul's Salvation Fight!

The Multitude 
Is
Inevitably Wrong
Because
Men's Lusts Have Might
Even Though
Their Cause Is Wrong
AND
They Appear Strong!

I Urge All
To Dare To Be A Daniel
A Moses Firm
An Elijah On Fire
Or The Baptist Called John
Even If It Means
They Hand You A Head-Carrying Platter!

This Is Not The Time
To Waffle In Your Belief!
Stand Firm On The Truth
In Jesus Christ's Faith
AND
In The Great Day
You Won't Be Branded
A Doubled-Minded
Cast-Off
Lost-To-Salvation
Damned-For-Eternity
There-Is-No-Place-For-You-In-God's-Kingdom
Disgrace!

Think On Jesus Christ!
Talk With Jesus Christ!
Trust Jesus Christ!
And, Finally
Live With Jesus Christ!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: The White Lily and The Ship!






Her Advent came by Rape!
Her?  Her Mother Did Hate!
She Did Not Know Her Ultimate Fate
But
Thankfully, Each day
No Matter How Little or Late
Her Mother Fed Her
And
She Gratefully Ate!

She Spoke of A Life
Sorely Lacking In Love!
She Did Not Cry Nor Lament
For The Unloving Mother 
Taught Her of 
The Living Holy God's Eternal Love!

Strange -  This Combination!
The Unloving 
Teaching 
The Unloved of 
God's Love
But
This Jagged Circle Pointed
To Jesus Christ ... and His Eternal Love
And
Heavenly Rest Up Above!

In The Midst of The Muck
That Man Calls His Life
Is A Lily of Such Beauty
That One Asks: "How Come?!"
For Muck is Really Muddy
And
Muddy Water Is Really Unclean
Yet 

"Lily,  Oh,  Lily
Thy White Is Beautifully Pristine!"



The Bullied
The Bothered
The Hapless Lacking Hope
All Know That  - Even in War
White is The Eternal Symbol for Hope
And 
All That Walk Under That Banner So Clean
Know 
With A Certainly
That Their Freedom Is Keenly Seen!

Jesus Christ IS The White Lily!
The Visible Symbol for Hope!
Looking Unto Jesus
Sinner 
Savage
All Through Jesus Will Cope
With The "Accident"
Called Birth
The Circumstance 
Called Living Life 
And
The Situations in Daily Living's Strife!

All Will Survive Their "Humiliations"
IF ...
IF ... Jesus Christ 
IS
The Leader of Their Life!

Rapes!
Denigrations!
Whoredoms 
And
Idolatries!
All Will be Fixed
By Faith in The White Lily
Who Is
The Bright and
Morning Star
Who Left The Kingdom of His Light
To Bring Give Hope
To a Fallen People
On a Far Distant Shore
Where Life is Oft' Bogged Down
Where Friendship is Oft' Silver-Coined Death
Where Creatures Killed Creator
Where Seeking Hungry Souls Can Be Filled
Where The Fullness of Time was Fulfilled
Where Time Himself called "Time!"
Where The Sacrifice of Innocent for Guilty
Was Executed by The Guilty of Gross Sin!
BUT
Where, Also 
Despite The Downside Of Denials
There is The Upside 
The Upside Called Hope!

There Is Hope for 
All Who Believe
That That White Lily
Standing Out Over 
In The Dirty Dirt
IS
The Answer
The Means Whereby
Sinking Ships 
Overladen 
Anchored Heavily By Sin
Can By The Belief and Faith Offering
Rise Up and Gallant Float!

Only The Eternal Word
Can
Cause 
A White Lily 
to 
Emerge 
From 
Bilge Water!

Trust Him!

When We Let Him
He Will Make Us White, Too!
