VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: On The Cusp Of Hope And Glory!







On The Border Between Here And Now And Eternity 
Is 
The Oasis Called Final Decision! 

On The Cusp Between Hope And Glory 
Is 
The Small Mall Called Need Not Want Provisions! 

On The Border Between Faith And Feeling 
Is 
The Must-See Musty Rest Stop Called Doubt! 

All Who Desire To See The Kind King Of Glory-To-Share
Must Choose At These Three Must Stops 
To Unload Past Life's Garbage
Load Up On Saving Truth
Get Rid Of I, Me, Mine, Myself
Do As I Please And Take What I Want 
And
Specifically Pick Up 
The Free-Food Box-Lunch From Shepherd's Bush 
Which Contains Faith For Today
Strength For The Way
Pray A Prayer
Be Very Courageous
Press On
Don't Look Back
Don't Despise Correction
And 
The Pearl Of Great Price 
Aka Jesus Loves Me: I Trust In The Living God! 

Beloved, 

Not One Of Us Living 
Is 
Permitted To By-Pass The Way-Marks Of Life! 

What We Do With Our Feelings
How We Handle Doubt
And 
The Final Decisions Made On The Unknown Last Day
Determine Whether ... By Judgment
We Experience Eternal Separation From Almighty God 
Or
Enter Into The Eternity Of Peace 
Where All Is Bliss! 

Feelings Fail 
But
Enduring Faith Follows The Forever Friend
Jesus Christ, The Joy Of Living! 

I Beseech Us All
To Boldly Choose To Live For 
And 
Die In Jesus
Because Then
The Eternity Of Peace Will Be Forever Ours 
To Live With Him! 

Peace Be Upon You!
