VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Soul Satisfaction!?!

Whatever You Say
I Am Still Going To Maintain That
There Are Great Differences Between
Dissatisfaction With Physical Self
Satisfaction With Sinful Self
And
Dissatisfaction With Sin In The Soul!

Dissatisfaction With Physical Self
Strikes ... 
At The Sovereign Will Of God!

Satisfaction With Sinful Self Places You
With Satan
On The Throne Of God!

Dissatisfaction With Sin In The Soul
Causes You To Call Upon
The Creator
The Sovereign God
- Whom You Recognize As Such -
The King Of Life
The Savior Of Man
To Make You Free
And
Clean
And
Whole!

Dissatisfaction
With Physical Self
Can Lead To Satisfaction ... With Sinful Self
Which Will Lead To
Satisfaction With Sin ... In The Soul!

Come On! That's Harsh!

So Is Hell!
Don't You Realize That
Personal Sin Starts In The Mind!?!

The Little Engine That ... Thought He Could
Believed He Could!
The Little Engine That Believed ... Did!
The Little Engine Does
Because
Mind Conquered Matter!

But ...

The Little Engine That Continues ... Doing
- Even Though He Is Found To Be
And Knows That He Is Wrong -
Because
He Believes He Is Right
And
His Maker Is Wrong
And
His Cause Is Just
And
Against The Will Of The Holy God
He Chooses To Remain Strong ... Boldly Sins!

I Hear That!

It's True!

Just Because You Can Do Something
Does Not Make Doing It
The Correct Thing That Should Be Done!

There Is A Problem ...

Refusal To Deal With Known Sin 
Protectively Cherished 
And
Cuddled
In The Heart
Causes Many To Resort To Shrinks
Plastic Surgeons
The Lust Of The Flesh
The Lust Of The Eye
And
The Consuming Vanity That 
Is 
The Pride Of Life!

Vanity Vexes The Spirit Of Man!

Hear! Hear!

Brethren,
Let The Record Show That



And

The Living God's Ready Response To It!




Let The Record Also Show That 




Loose Lips Sink Ships!

It Doesn't Have To Sink Our Ships
Because
Being Wise Unto Salvation
We Have Taken A Firm Position
And
We Choose ... By Faith
To Let The Lord Of Life Lead Us!

It Is About Time That We ...

Get Away From Vanity's Lying Mirror
And
Look, Instead
At The Living Holy Saving Word Of God!

It Is Past Time That We ...

Put Away Self
And
Seek Free Salvation
Available Mercy
And
The Free Grace That Is Always ... Sufficient!

Don't You Know That ...

The Walk, Then, Through This Life
Will Be A Cakewalk
As Opposed To
The Unencumbered Dash To Damnation!?!

I Can Relate
Because I Was Headed In That Direction
Until I Had A Wake-Up Call
And I Understood
And By God's Grace
I Accepted The Call To Life!

I Hear You!

You Are Blessed!

Brethren,
All Of Us Will Hear The Call
And
Many Of Us Will Not Give Due Heed
And
For That Lack Of Obedience
They Will Have Spurned What Will Be
Jesus Christ's Last Call To Life Everlasting!

Let Us, Therefore, Be Wise Unto Salvation
And
Let Us Let Him Who Is Life
And
The Joy Of Living
Lead Us To Life Everlasting
Where Indeed
Our Souls Renewed 
Our Bodies Glorified
Will, Forever, Be Satisfied!

Let Us Endeavor
To Meet Our Lord In The Air
On That Day Of His Appointing 
When He Shall Breach The Eastern Sky!

Hallelujah To The Lamb!

We Who Walk With Him
Do Not Ever Walk Alone!

Let Us Keep Our Forever Friend Near!
Let Us Never Forget - In Faith - To Pray!

The Value Of A Blessing






God Gave Me Life!
I Didn't Even Give Him A Graceless "Thank You!"

God Gave Me A Living!
I Uttered A Half-baked "Whoo Hoo!"

I Needed A Hand
A Help
AND
A Healing
AND
God Gave Me A Hope
AND
I Behaved As If
He Is Mine To Command!

The Value Of A Blessing
Is Not To Be Underestimated!

The Value Of "Thanks!"
From The Receiver
To The Giver
Should Not Be Undersold!

We Are Instructed
To Give Thanks
With A Grateful Heart
For
Our Gifts
AND
Blessings
Cost The Holy One
Something Precious
The Half Of Which
Has Not To Us Been Told!

Let Us Tell God -
Father
Son
And
Holy Ghost
And
One Other
"Thanks!"
For The Benefits
Unrequested
Unexpected
Unhoped For
That We Have Received ... Today!!

*********

The Weight Of Thanks Is No Burden!
