HAPPY SABBATH + Measuring The Almighty God!?







I Got Out My Tape Measure
For
I Was Going To Measure The Living God!
I Was Going To Make Him A Strait-Jacket
As Ordered 
By ... King Fraud!

I Did Not Know What I Had Let Myself In For
BUT
I Believed That I Was Up To The Task
Until 
I Looked Up And Unto God
AND
Recognized That The Length Of His Hand
Was Eternity Long
AND
The Girth Was Everlastingly Vast!

I Complained To Him Who
Had Requested My Services
Saying That My Tape Measure
Was Not Long Enough
AND
Y'all Should Have Heard
His Scornful Devilishly Derisive Laughing Reply:

I Requested You
To Make God A Suit!
I Never Said You Should
Or Could
Measure HIM!

... And He Proudly Turned
AND
Walked Aw... Disappeared!

Flummoxed!
Dismayed!
Bewildered!
Perplexed!
Moved ... But Unmoving
I Assayed To Try Prayer
AND
That Is When I Heard The Voice:

Come, Child!
Lean On The Everlasting Arm!
Cooperate With The Living God
And
Let Him Create From His Measure
Your Coat Of Rejoicing!

My Head Whipped Up!
My Hand Reached Out!
My Heart Was Fair To Thumping!
I Knew That Voice!
I Needed That Choice!
AND
I Desired That Coat Of Rejoicing
For
I Was Tired
- Plum Tired -
Of Sin On My Own Self
Always Foisting!

Father,
I Need You!
Have Mercy On Me!
I Attempted The Impossible!
I Wanted To Attire You
In My Idea Of A Thing Of Beauty!

I Wanted To Measure You
But
Your Arm Was Too Long
Too Wide
And
My Tape Too Short
For It Would Not Your Arm Go Around!

Where Did I Go Wrong!?!

Beloved,
First You Doubted!
Second You Elevated Self!
You Lowered My Dignity
And
You Placed Satan - With Primacy -
On Your Love-Only-The-Living-God Shelf!

I Am Your Maker
Redeemer
Sealer Savior Friend!
You Cooperate With Me!
I
Sinful Hearts
Change
And
New Garments Commend!

One Man Cannot
Two Masters Serve
So
Choose Me And Live
And
You Shall Forever Grow!

In Me
You Shall Ever Thrive
If You
The Devil Overthrow!

Bless The Lord
With Your Soul
And
With All That Is In You
The Holy Name Bless
And
Trust Me
For Your Own Soul's Salvation
And
Come Out From Sinning
And
Into Salvation's Warmth Go
From Decimating-Sin's Cold!
Enter
- By Faith -
The Safe Fold!


Truth Won The Day!

I Held The Eternal In My Heart
From That Day
AND
I Am Telling All Who Will Listen:

The Devil's A Liar!
Don't Play His
HeAloneKnowsThePunchLine Joke
For
He Will The Word Of Truth 
Out Of You Choke!!

Almighty God Already Condescended
To Come Down To Our Level
So
It Is Our Turn
To Reach Up To Him!

Be Not Conformed To The Ways
Of This World
BUT
Be Renewed By The Transforming
Of Your Heart-For-God Mind!

Custom-Tailored
Man-Made Suits
For
The Eternal God
Are
Oxymoronic!
Eschew It!
