REST: Under His Wings!



 


Think About It ... 

We Have Choices To Make 
And
Chances To Make Choices ... Good Or Bad! 

We, Each, Have The Choice To Look Around 
And 
Be Distressed By What Is Going Around Us 
Or To Look Inward 
And 
Be Completely Depressed About Our Soul's Estate 
Or To Look Up To Christ Jesus 
And
Cast Our Every Care
- Inward And Outward -
Upon Him Who Is The Great And Able Burden-Bearer
And 
Be Entirely At Rest 
Experiencing His Perfect Peace! 

You May Well Say ...


"That's Too Simple, Too Easy! 
It Can't, Won't, Shouldn't Work!" 

Beloved, 

It Is Because It Is Too Easy 
And 
Shouldn't Work That 
It Does Work! 

He Who Prescribes This Method 
Is 
The Very One Who Makes It Possible To Work 
By Giving Unto Us Faith To Trust Him 
To Work Things Out ... For Our Best Good! 

Be Ye Warned ... 

When You Give Your Burden To The Lord Christ
Let It Go Completely 
And
Leave It In His Holy Hands! 

The Lord Desires Our Bold
Willing
Unerring Trust In Him! 


Please Dare To Trust The Lord To Take Care Of You 
Because 
It Is He, Alone, Who Makes All Wrong Things Right
Turns Darkness To Light 
And
Makes Beauty Out Of Ashes! 

Only The Creator God Can Make The Impossible Happen! 
Make Your Peace With The God Holy
Lean On The Everlasting Arms
And
Shelter In Our Abiding Place 
Under His Wings!

HAPPY SABBATH + Scrubbing Brushes, Chisels, Hammers, Cross-Cut And Rip-Cut Saws And Sand-Paper!





The Lord Our God 
Does Not Make Idle Promises About 
Neither Sin Nor Salvation
Blessing Nor Rebuke
Heaven Nor Hell
And 
We Of The Household Of Faith 
Must Not Minimize Or Place A Gloss Over 
The Plain Word That 
Proceeds From The Mouth Of The Almighty God 
By Indulging Doubt, Disbelief 
And 
Disobedience! 

Let's Consider A Baby! 

A Baby Knows The Voice
The Taste
The Touch
The Smell 
And 
The Rhythm Of The Heart Of Its Mother
And 
In The Chaos Of The Noisy World 
Or Its Own Household
Baby Will Seek For 
And 
Find Care, Comfort, Rest
Refreshing 
And 
Peace 
In Its Mother's Arms! 

So, With That Said
What's Our Problem!?! 

The Lord Our God 
Is 
Our Creator 
Aka Father And Mother 
Who Cannot Forget Us 
Because 
Of The Richness Of His Infinite Grace
And 
Eternal Love! 

Jesus Christ's Innocent, Precious, Blood 
Purchased Our Redemption 
And 
We Are Called To Saving Faith 
- By His Daily Gift To Each Of Us Of 
A Measure Of His Faith -
By The Plain Truth 
To Willingly, Eagerly, Wholly,  Trust 
The Holy God Of Grace 
To Get Us Safely Home To Unending Glory! 

This World 
Is Not 
Our Forever Home
And
Our Problems Are But Scrubbing Brushes
Chisels, Hammers
Cross-Cut And Rip-Cut Saws And Sand-Paper:
We Must Be Clean And Righteous Before Our Lord ... The Judge!

Beloved, 

We Have Free Will And Free Choice
So Let Us ... As Children Of The Great King
Choose To Walk In Enduring Faith 
And 
By Almighty God's Great Grace
Do Not Deny His Personally-Shown
Perfect Love For You!

The Lord Cannot Forget
His Very Own
Greatly-Beloved Children!

Book-It ...
 
Walking In The Truth Brings Peace: 
Be Comforted In Christ Jesus
Shiloh
The Prince Of Peace
Who Is Our Haven Of Rest!


Rejoice In The Lord ... Of Life!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Knowing God!

From The Top, People!

When I Was Child
I Knew Nothing
And I Spake As A Child!
Now, I Am A Man
I Know More Than I Did When I Was A Child
And I Have Put Away Childish Things!
What I Know Now Cannot Compare To What I Will Know
In God's Sweet Tomorrow!
I Am Growing In Grace!

I Serve The Unchanging God
In Whom Is No Variableness
Neither Shadow Of Turning!
I Serve The Great I Am
Whose Wisdom Is Eternal!

What My God Knew 6,000 Years Ago
He Knows Today!
He Knows Tomorrow!
He Does Not Live In Time!
He Does Not Learn!
He Cannot Be Taught!

I Daily Learn From Him
And I Daily Learn Of Him
And I Am Blessed
For He Is God Almighty
Ever Living
Ever Present
Ever Loving
Ever Faithful!
He Is Not The The Base Fraud!
He Is The Holy God!

Brethren,
Do You, A Finite Man
Make And Carry
Teach And Feed
And Lead Him Where He Has No Desire To Go
And Dare To Ask The Infinite One
What Doest Thou?!

That Is Not Possible!
The Infinite One Is Eternal!
Before We Were, He Is!
Everything That Is, He Created!
Everything With The Breath Of Life In It, Breathes
Because He
- Who Is The Life Giver -
Ordains It To Be So!
Should He Withdraw His Breath
We Shall Return To The Dust From Whence We Came!

Are You Immortal!?
Are You Wise?!
Can You Remove God From His Throne?!

The Creator God Eternal
Holy
Is The One Wise!
He Is All-Seeing
All-Knowing!
He Is Ever-Present!
He Is Self-Existent!

We Are Wise ... Unto Salvation
Because We Acknowledge That He Is Our Sovereign
And Being Children Of The Loving Father
And Eager Students In The School Of Jesus
And Willing And Ready Servants Of
And Made Able By The Great King
We Look To Him For The Beautiful Gift Of Eternal Life
Which He Alone Will Bestow
After We Have Faithfully Endured All Things
In The Faith Of Jesus Christ The Righteous
Who Is The Redeemer
The Only Savior
And The Forever Friend
In Whom Is Reposed The Hope In Our Hearts!

Only The Fool
- The One Wise In His Own Eyes -
Says There Is No God
And By So Doing
Seeks To Depose The Lord
- The King Of Glory -
From His Throne
High And Lifted Up!

The Wisdom Of Man 
Is Foolishness To The Omniscient God!

In Whom Is Your Trust Reposed?!

We Trust In The Lord
And In Jesus Christ's Name
It Shall Be Thus, Forever
For In Him Is Everlasting Strength!

We Trust Because We Believe!
We Believe The Living Word!
The Living Word Is The Truth
And Makes Plain Him Who Is The Way
And Gives Us The Light
So That May Walk The Straight And Narrow Path
Unto His Innocent-Blood-Bought
And To Us, Freely Given
Eternal Life!

And What Do You Say To The Lord God Almighty
When He Calls You?!

We Shall Say:

Speak, Lord!
Thy Servant Is Listening!
Speak, Lord!
I Am Waiting On Thee!
Lead Me, Oh, Lord!
Please Take Me By The Hand
For, Without You
I Know I Cannot Stand!


Brethren,
The Lord Is Our Light And Our Salvation ...!

... And Of No Created Being
Shall We Be Afraid!
Our God Holy
Is The Rock Upon Which Shall Safely Stand!

Let Jesus Christ Be Praised!

AMEN!!

HAPPY SABBATH + Without Belief, Faith Is Milk Froth!






After Much Ado about everything Wrong, Iffy, Annoying, Distracting, Disturbing, Sinful, and Oppressing and Depressing in My Life - and in The World - I have Decided I Cannot Really Live Without Waiting on The Lord!

 I Cannot Do Much to Help Myself!
 I Cannot Wake Me Up
Without The Master Holding Me Up, so
There's No Doubt That My Life without Him 
Would be a Major Muck!



My Eyes Serve ...
Meals My Stomach Can't Digest!

My Mouth Writes ...
Checks That My Person Can't Cash!

My Carnal Heart Yields ...
A god That My Now Saved Soul Can't Worship!

My Feet Have Walked ...
The Path that Can't Lead to Heaven!

My Faith-In-Jesus-Sense Tells Me ...
That What I Oft' Hear For Gospel Is Pharisee Leaven!


So, In Short ...

Without The Master - I am Tempest Tossed!
Without The Savior - There Is No Payment of My Costs!
Without Belief - Faith is Milk Froth!
Without Faith in Jesus Christ ...
I Am Forever Lost!



Note to Soul:

Self Worship is Idolatry!
Self Praise is Vanity! 
and
Self Pleasure is Not Even A "Thing!"

Go Against All Worldly Wisdom
and
Get Right with Jesus Christ!

Know The Shepherd - Get in The Fold
Otherwise The Hereafter
Will Be Very Hot - Not Cold!

TRUST GOD ... NO MATTER WHAT!
