Trust The Shepherd Of Rest!




Let Us Not Live Like Bewildered Sheep 
Who Have No Shepherd
Because
We Were Bought At A Great Price 
By The Shepherd Who Is Our Rest
Who Leads Us To Green Pastures
And  
Restores Our Souls! 

Beloved, 

I Beseech Us All 
To Internalize The Ideal That Is Trust 
As Gleaned From The Good Book Of Truth 
From The Lord Of Life 
Who Is The Truth 
And
Dare To Rest Sheltered And Protected
Comforted And Cared For
Blessed And Bettered! 

Let's Be Thoroughly Refreshed 
In The Calm That Comes From The Knowledge That 
Our Creator Is Our Recreator
Our Savior Is Our Sanctifier
Our King Is Kind
And 
The Good Shepherd ... Our Good Shepherd
Is 
Ever Present And Available Always! 

We Are Never Alone!

Our Shepherd, The Lord God Almighty
Is 
He Who Gives Us Time To See And Personally Know Him! 
He Dwells In Eternity And He Never Sleeps! 
He Is Our Peace
And 
We May Sleep Soundly In Peace 
And 
Be Refreshed And Strengthened 
To Be Refined Into Beautiful Jewels For His Crown! 

The Good Shepherd Calls Us:
It Is Our Choice To Answer Him!

If We Don't Stand Firmly By Faith 
On The Foundation Of Trust In The Lord Christ
We May As Well Be As Those Idolaters 
Who Are Worshipping The Man-Made Abominations That 
Cause Jealousy In The Heart Of Our Living Holy God! 

No Idolator Will Ever Enter
The Beautiful City Of God!

You Are Blessed! 
Our God Is Real And Returning! 
Please Dare To Live As One Dearly Loved Of The Good Shepherd
The Lord Jesus Christ! 

Peace!

THE GLORY OF LIFE: I Believe HIM!

The Lord Is My Shepherd!
He Walks In Front
And 
Being Wise Unto Salvation
I Gladly Follow On Behind!

He Leads Me To Green Pastures
Where Food Suitable
Is 
Found For Me And My Kind!

He Leads Me To Still And Known Sweet Waters
Where My Known Sinful Soul 
Is 
Cleansed 
And
My Thirst Quenched!

He Spreads A Sumptuously Laden Table Before Me
Which My Enemies Look Upon Truly Amazed! 

My Head, Weary, He Anoints With Holy Oil
And
I Am No Longer Of The World Afraid!

He Leads Me In The Paths Of Right Thinking
And 
Right Doing
And 
It Is For His Holy Name's Sake!
All Glory, Praise And Honor
Are His ... Alone!

He Gives Me A Cup
- My Personal Cup Of Blessing -
Which He Causes To Overflow
And
- No Surprise -
If The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death 
I Must Pass Through
I Go There Unafraid
And 
With The Prior Knowledge
That He Conquered Death
And 
Will Come For Me
When The Last Trumpet Does Blow!

The Fact Of The Matter 
Is
That Goodness And Mercy Shall Follow Me
All The Days Of My Life
Because
I Have - And Daily Utilize - 
His Gift To Me Of His Holy Faith
And
I Have Placed My Complete Trust In Him!

He Is Not A Man 
And 
He Cannot Lie!

He Has Promised Me A Home
- A Forever Home With Him -
In The Father's House
And
Based On Personal Experience
And
Public Knowledge
I Believe Him!

I Do Not Walk Alone
And
I Will Not
- By His Great Grace -
Look Back Toward Sin
Doubt His Word
Go After What Is Not Bread
Deny His Sovereignty Over My Life
Nor Turn Again To Fables!

He Died For Me
And, So
I Choose To Live ... For Him!

The Lord Is My Shepherd
And
For That Which 
Is 
For My Good
And
For His Glory
I Shall Not Know Want!

Let His Great Name Be Praised! 

His Name Is Jesus Christ The Righteous
Shiloh, The Prince Of Peace
The King Of Glory
And
He Is Mine!
The Father
His Father
- Our Father - 
The Ancient Of Days Gave Him To Me
And
I Am Blessed!

PRAYER: Lord, Feed Your Children ...!





Father,
You Are Love
And
You Have Promised
Never To Let Me Go
And, So
For Peace
And
Because Of Him Who Is My Peace
I Rest My Longing Soul In Thee!


Lord,
I Am Tired Of Sin
And
I Need Your Promised Rest
For, In You

My Soul Is Blessed!


I Am Hungry For You
For You Are Truth!
Please Feed Me
With Food Fit For Me!


I Have Been Walking As One Blind
And
I Need You, Lord
For You Are Light ... Guide Me!


As Goes All Mankind
And
By Your Appointing
- As The Curse For Sin -
I Am Slowly Dying
And
I Need You
For You Are Life!
Please Make Me Over
So That In The Fullness Of Time
Unto Everlasting Life
I May By Right In Christ Cross Over!


Lord, 
I Approach Unto You Boldly
- Nothing Wavering - 
Calling Upon The Merits Of The Holy Jesus
Who Took My Death
To Give Me His Life!
Please Accept The Innocent Blood
For
He Who Shed It
IS
The Beloved
The Only Begotten Son
Shiloh, Himself
The Prince Of Peace
The Shepherd Of Rest
In Whom This Believing Soul Is Blessed!


Father,
I Come For My Miracle!
I Am Expecting That Which Is Impossible
To Me And My Kind
And
I Expect It, Lord
Because You Are Almighty God
Faithful Forgiving
Blessing Correcting
Providing Guiding
Unchanging
And
Abiding!


You, Lord, Are My God
And
With A Humble Contrite
And
A Sorrowing-For-Sin Heart
I Seek To Touch The Divine
Who Has Everlasting Love
And
Great Compassion
For Wayward Wandering
Disobedient And Transgression Mankind!


Father,
Take Me By The Hand
And
Show Me Your Ways!
Take Me By My Heart
And
Teach Me The Truth!
Take Me By My Eyes
And
Pry Me Away From The Lusts
That Blind Me To Holy Light
And
Unstop My Itching Ears
And
Heal Them With The Balm Of Gilead!

Place My Feet, Lord
On Straight Paths, Narrow
And
Lead Me To The Green Pasture
Attended By Sweet Water
And
Anoint My Head With The Oil
That Is The Holy Spirit Of Truth
And
Fill My Cup Of Blessing
To Sure Overflowing!


My Mind, Lord 
Is Fixed
On That Place Called Glorious
Because
I Desire To Spend
The Never-Ending Day With You!

I Desire To See You As You Are
And
I Desire To Know You Just As You Know Me!

Until Then, Lord
Help Me To Keep The Song Of The Redeemed
In My Converted-To-Christ Heart! 
Help Me To Keep The Light Of The Glorious City
In My Healed Eyesight! 
Help Me To Hear
And
To Join In The Singing Of The Song Of Jubilee
Sung By The Hearts Of The Faithful
Those Blessed Of The Lord!
We Are The Children Believing!


Remember, Dear Father
The Other Children
In The Various Flocks 
Who Know The Voice Of Jesus Christ
And
Who Are Listening
For That Soft Voice
To Become The Loud Cry
Calling Them Out Of The Confusion
That Is Babylon!
Help Them To Deny The False Prophets
That Preach Lies!
Help Them The Evil One
To Forcefully Deny!

Please, Lord
Continue To Feed Your Children
With Food Suitable
For Their Ages And Stages
And
Ever For Their Spiritual Prosperity
And
Eternal Blessing
And
Let Not The Glitter And The Glamor Of
This Known Dying World
Ever To Us Be Anything But
Fleeting And Undesirable!


Please Let Hope
- Like Freedom In Christ - 
Be Our Song And Our Service
For
We Love You, Lord!
Lead Us Gently, Safely, Home
Even As I Ask These Few Blessings
In The Matchless Name Of
Jesus Christ The King!
Harken, Lord, And Do For Us
What Only The Holy God Can Do
For You Are The Living God
Eternal
Wise
True!
Come Soon!
AMEN.

ATTAINMENT: Standard Of Perfection!

The Lord Jesus Christ
Raised Up The Standard
To Which I May Attain
AND
Because His Living Shows
What I Can Be
I Shall Sing His Praise
AND
Gladly Proclaim His Holy Name!

My Jesus Sees 
What I Can Be
AND
With Him Being My Example
I Can Walk Away From Darkness And Death
AND
Into The Light That Gives Life
AND
Eternal Residency
Which Is Neither A Crap Shoot
Nor A Gamble For Lost-Man Loot!

I Can Drop Off Old Bad Habits!
I Can Pick Up 
AND
Hold New And Pleasant Ways
AND
I Can Approach Unto The Heavenly Father
For
My Trust
My Hope
AND
My Faith
In My Jesus
Are Clearly Pointing Me
To The Marked
AND
Paved With Truth Glorious
Straight And Narrow Way!

Jesus Loves Me!
In Truth ... This I Know!
He Is Calling Me To Live In His Kingdom
AND
Daily
I Am Making Preparation To Go!

I Am Reading
Hearing
AND
Studying The Scriptures
AND
I Am Going To Almighty God 
For My Own Self
AND
I Am Praying The Eternal Promises
AND
I Am Removing All The False Gods
That Have Been Cluttering
AND
Abominating My Heart
AND
Turning It Into 
A Useless-Things Storage Shelf!

By God's Grace
AND
With Mercy
AND
Because Of Reciprocated Love
I Am Raising Up My Jesus-In-Me Banner
AND
I Am Walking Wise
AND
Showing To Others 
The Living God's Gracious Love! 

I Am Spreading The News Of 
The Eternal God's Faithfulness
Which To Us By Daily Mercies
Is Ever New
AND
Never Something To Be Eschewed!

Strong Is Our God
AND
Mighty To Save
AND
According To The Precious Promise
If I Die In The Lord Jesus
I - By Him - Shall Rise Again!

I Do Not Least-Count This Promise
Nor The Sacrifice Of The Giver Of The Word
AND SOI Shall Stand Firm
Upon The Rock Of Ages
For 
I Know His Word Is Truth
AND
I Do Believe That Life-Changing Word
Which Can Change Elder Or Youth!

The Savior Is Calling!
I Follow His Lead!
He Leads To All Green Pastures
AND
There
In Blessed Peace
I Safely Feed
AND
Being Ever In Need Of Refreshing
He Lets Me By Still Waters Rest
AND
I Find My Soul's Restoring
For
All Known Sin
I Do Willingly Confess!

Have Confidence In The Lord Christ
AND
Let The Living God Of The Eternal Word
Get You Out Of The World
Where Ranges The Wild Goat Herd!


Heard The Living Word?!
Love The Word Of The Everlasting?!
Then, Live

According To The Living Word 
And 
Lovingly Share The Living Word
With
The Dying Wild-Goat Herd!

Jesus Christ Utterly Saves

The Heretofore Utterly Lost!
