Kindness Doesn't Cost Anything!


Image result for LENDING TO THE LORD KJV


I Have Never In All My Born Days
Heard Of Anything So Selfish And Unkind And Cruel
Or Known Of Anyone 
Who Could Have Been So Proud On Top Of It!

Satan!

Can You Imagine A Person Boiling 24 Eggs
Having Several Children Around Them Begging For Just One
And 
The Person Saying: "These Are Mine!"
Refusing To Share
Eating Only Two Of The Eggs
And 
Then Maliciously Throwing The Other 22 Eggs To The Pigs
Before They Would Feed The Hungry People!?!

Satan!

Old Elise Told Us That She Wickedly Did That
When She Was A Young Girl!

We Know That She Repented Of Her Pride And Her Folly
But She Had Ample Opportunity 
To Eat The Bread The Very Devil Kneaded 
Before She Died!
She Came To Know The Feel Of Unkindness
And To Experience The Taste Of Hunger!

Almighty God Doesn't Like Ugly
And Comeuppance Has A Nasty Way Of
Biting The Ugly Heart When It Least Expects It
Or Is Able To Handle It!

Repentance Does Not Negate Consequence For Sin
So We Need To Think Before We Do ... Foolishness!

We Would All Do Well To Remember That 
When We Act In Haste
We Will Always Have The Opportunity 
To Repent In A Leisurely Fashion!

Listen To This ...

He Who Sows, Reaps! 
He Who Gives, Gets! 
He Who Blesses In Jesus Christ's Holy Name 
Is 
Blessed By Jesus Christ Himself! 

Those Who Are So Selfish
Not Even Willing To Give Away 
A "Good" Cold Or A Bad Idea
And 
Choosing To Demand Payment 
For Whatever Departs Their Pocket, Purse Or Premises 
Will Inevitably Have To Buy All That They Need! 
Sells All Buys All!

Know The Right ...

There Is No Profit In Selfishness
And 
There Is No Loss Experienced 
By Those Who Freely Give Of What 
They Have Freely Received 
From The Generous Hand Of The Eternal God 
Who Is Ever Faithful, Blessing, Giving, And Good! 

In The Name Of The Only One Holy
Willingly Give
And 
By Almighty God's Preserved Word Of Promise
It Will Come Back To You ... With Profit! 
Believe The Living Word 
And 
Do Right
Because
It Is Guaranteed That You Will Be Blessed! 

Remember,
Jesus Christ Gave His All
- His Very Life's Blood -
For You, Me, Us All!
All That We Are Being Asked ... Encouraged To Do
Is
To Willingly Give Up A Lil' Bit Of What We Have
Which Will Certainly Come Back To Us Again!
The Living God Does Not Lie!

 Man Cannot
Recapture The Lost Opportunity
Recall The Unkind Word
Recast The Cruel Deed
Or
Repay The Goodness Of Almighty God
But
We Can ... By His Great Grace
Relieve A Soul's Daily Burden
By Willing Giving
Sharing
Commiserating
And
Caring!

HAPPY SABBATH + Laboring For The Wind!?!










Clean Yuh Come
Had A Siamese Twin
Whose Name Is
Clean Yuh Shall-Go
AND
Between These Brethren
Their Task Was To Daily Tell
Laboring For DeWind
That His Life
IS
On All Points
A Car With An Engine That Doesn't Go!
That It Will Be At The Winner's Celebration
A Definite No Show!


Laboring For DeWind
Is A Pompous Donkey
AND
An Airs And Graces Parade Horse
Haughty Head Held High
Decorated Tail Swishing In The Air
Stepping Pun De Grecia!
(He Did Important). He Liked Everybody At Him To Look Around!


Problem ...

There Is Always A Problem!
Problem Is
He Thinks He Is Really Smartly Brilliant
BUT
He Truly Lacks Common Sense
Because
The More He Has
The More He Wants
AND
His Marriage To Peace N. Rest
Is Being Steadfastly Ripped Apart
Just Like His First Marriage
To Sleep N. Peace!


He Is An Obtusely Greedy Oinker!
AND
He Is Also A Studiously Presumptuous Puppy!
He Loves The Banquet 

AND
The Gluttonous Feast!

One Day ...
There Is Always A ... One Day!

It Was One Of Those Fair To Middling
Neither Hot Nor Cold
Neither Windy Nor Airless
Just About Right Days
When All Is Well
Grass Is Green
Bread Hot
Biscuits Crispy
Butter Smooth
Eyes Sorta Kinda Blinky
When Preacher Ecclesias Ticus
Paid An Unannounced
Unexpected
Unappreciated
Time For A Reality Check Visit
To Bigman DeWind
Who Was In His Counting House
Counting
AND
Gently
Oh, So, Gently
Massaging His Individual Stacks Of Money!



Laboring For DeWind's Favorite Saying Is:

Small Notes Suit Small People!

So There Was Not A Note Smaller Than A Twenty
In The Humongous Pile

AND
The Smile On His Face Was ... Well
Plainly Vile!

You Should Note That ...

When You Have More Head Than Brain
AND
Consider Lack Of Daily Monetary Gain
A Crime Against Conscience
AND
A Thing Sordidly
Egregiously
Profane
You Have Crossed The Pale!
You Have Raised Up The False God!
You Have Crossed Into Comeuppance Land
AND
You Are Headed For
House Built On Sinking Sand
Storm Coming
I'm Pedaling Fast
But My Feet Ain't Moving
Soul-Security Check!

Laboring For DeWind
Had The
"What Did God Ever Do For Me!" 

Clean Knocked Out Of Him!

He Cried Foul!
He Cursed The Big Billy Goat!
He Called For His Mama Gotta Virtue
BUT
At The End Of It All
He Didn't Have A Groat!

All He Had Was A Black Coat
With A Collar Made Of A Stoat!
He Lost His Big Able Boat
AND
He Had To Get Rid Off All
The Living-Large Luxuries
That Luck Is A Lady
Had Treacherously Rammed Down 

That Open Sepulchre That He Called His Throat!

It Was Not Pretty!
It Was Not Polished!
It Was Not A Performance!
It Was A Plain And Simple:



You Could Be Over And Done With

BUT
Your Cup Of Iniquity Is Not Yet Full
SO
The Appeal Of The Father
Is Here!



Thankfully

It Was Not The


"Your Life Is Done!"

Laboring For DeWind
Got The

"Look Here!

Take This Pencil

AND
Go Over Your Life!"

What Is The Total?! 
Check That Sum!


He Peed!
He Pooped!
He Fell And Knocked Out 

A Prized Diamond And Gold Tooth!
He Rolled On The Floor
AND
Winded ... Finally
Cried Out:

I Didn't Know There Was More!
Much More!
I Ate!
I Drank!
I Got ... More And More
AND NOW
Look At Me
At Death's Wide Open Gate Door!

He Was Shook! - Not Shaken!
He. Was. Shook!

Conclusion Of The Whole Matter ...

Fear God!
Don't Labor For The Wind!
You Can't Take "It" With You!
AND
Recognize That
The Living God Holy
Faithful Just Trust
Doesn't Do That Man-Thing Called
Negotiating!

Riches Are A Vanity!
Life ... However Long
Is Short
AND
When The Living God Says:

"Enough!" 


You Ain't Got Nuh Retort!

Bow Before God - He Made You!
Bend Before God - His Is Sovereign Will!
Take The Chastisements That He Graciously Sends You
AND
You Will Not Be A Drop
That Will The Lake Of Fire Fill!

You Are Not Your Own Property
To Do With Your Life As Your Vanity Wills
For
Simply Put
In The Great Day Of Accounts
Your Own Soul Will
Your Bad Record Spill!

Our Actions Provide The Ink
With Which The Recording Angel
Writes Our Permanent Record!
So, Be Careful
For Everything That We Do
The Good 
AND
The Evil
Will Be Written Down In That Record!

Don't Be A Dunce For A Rotting Dollar Bill! 
Give The Lord Christ Your Will
AND
Satan - In Your Life -
Will Have To Chill
AND
Keep To Himself
His Burnable Dollar Bills!

Call On The Lord Jesus

For Your Own Soul's Salvation

AND
The Holy Spirit
Will Your New Heart Fill!

A Wholesome Tongue!





I Wrote A Check
With Careless Words
AND
Comeuppance Cashed It
For
I Recognized Not
That Words Have Weight
Until I Was Lashed And Bashed By It!

A Wholesome Tongue
Is A Tree Of Life!
A Perverse Tongue
IS
A Goad Of Strife
Which Makes Life
Bitter And Torn
When We Become The Lambasted Recipients
Who Have Been Basted
By The Bitter Butter
That We Ourselves Undeniably Blasted!

Be A Word Watcher
Wise And True
For
All Words Have Weight
Be It To Energize
Enervate
Elevate Or Excoriate
Good Friend Or Foe
AND
Me And You:

Look ... Before You Leap! 
Think ... Before You Speak!
Trust In The Lord
AND
The Good Word Obey
AND
Speak Peace
Ever Always
For Soon Comes
The Judgment
And
The Glory Days!

HAPPY SABBATH + Where Is The Everyday Thanks?!












Confession
Is Good For The Soul!

Unrepentance
Makes The Sinner Most Bold!

Comeuppance
Has For Herself A Lofty Place

AND

Life
Has An Uncanny Knack
For Dealing Disgrace 
To Those With Pride
Sowed
In Their Heart
And
Marked
On Their Face!


Food Shelter
Clothing Peace
Happy Children Health
License Land Lease
Work Water
No Sorrow To Bear!
Walks Through Willfulness!
Of Pettiness
AND
Foolishness
I Even Had A Substantial Share!

Thoughtlessness
Stinginess
Wildness
Waywardness
Faultlessness
Of Recklessness
I Can Tell You
I Spared Not A Tear!

You Could Have Been Dead!

Dead?! Me?!
You Must Be Kidding!
The World Was My Oyster!
My Life Was My Pearl
AND
I Wore It On A Gold Chain
AND
I Treated The Living God
As One Does A Churl!

But ...

The Day Came ...

...  And Someone Said:


It Would Be Better 

If People Would Try To Give God "Thanks!" 
On A Daily Basis 
Rather Than Waiting 
Until There Is Food Involved!

And Then ...

Contrary 
To My Perfect Conception Of My Life 
Comeuppance Was Glorified ...!

And I ...!

You Should Have Heard Me Praying:


Dear Lord,
Let Me Give You
Thanks And Praise Today
For I Don't Have Tomorrow
Far Less Next Week!
I Don't Know 
How The Tide Of My Life Will Turn
Or That I Will Be Able To Utter 
Even A Tired Mouse Squeak!

Father, My Heart In Me Burns!
Forgive Me For Taking The Life You Gave
And Doing As I Well Pleased!
Forgive Me For Eating My Daily Bread
Without Feeling The Desire To Say In Gratitude:
Thank You, Lord, For Filling My Need!

Lord,
I Have Been A Total Ingrate
Taking Your Bounty For Granted As I Overfilled
My Overflowing Plate!
Please
Accept My Contrite Heart's Apology!
Please Forgive My Descent Into The Realm Of Satan
That Greedy Reprobate
And Help Me To Walk
According To Your Calling
And Doing It Now
Rather Than When It Is Too Late
And
I Am Forced To Say:
Lord, Please Save Me Now!

Thank You For The Tears That Flow!
Thank You For The Grace You Bestow!
Thank You For The Mercies
Seen And Unseen
Known And Unknown
Unexpected And Unappreciated
And
Thank You For Christ's Sacrifice
That Makes This Wretch
By Confession
And Repentance
Forgiven
And
Clean!


It Is Good To Give A Gift 
Of Heartfelt Thanks
And Glorious Praise 
Unto Our Almighty God!
Amen!


Indeed!
Let Us, In Heartfelt Appreciation
- Today And Every Day -
Thoughtfully Say To Him 
Who Daily Provides:



"Father,
I Give Unto You My Heartfelt Thanks 
For All My Blessings
Even Though Your Giving
Is Not Dependent Upon My Thanks!"
