HAPPY SABBATH + NOTE TO SELF: Almighty God's Good Gifts Are Glorious!











Note To Self: 
Ask The Lord To Help Me To Raise Up My Standards 
And
Lift Up My Eyes From Seeing Dirt 
So That I Will Stop Asking Him, My King And My God
For Gifts That Are Not Good For Me
Nor For Privileges That, With The Passage Of Time
Will See Me Turning Away From The Land Of Love And Light 
To Head Toward Me, My, Mine, Myself, 
And 
Misery! 

Beloved, 

When The Lord Says "No!" 
It Is Because He Knows You 
And 
He Can See The End Aka Your End
From Your Beginning! 

When The Lord Say "Yes!" 
It Is Because That Blessed "Yes!" 
Will Bless You Bountifully! 

When The Lord Says "Wait!" 
It Means Not Now 
Because 
Later Aka That Profitable Wait
Will Be Much Better For You! 

When The Lord Of Love Says "Don't Ask Again!" 
It Means Walk With Him Humbly
Patiently, Enduringly 
Because 
His Grace ... His Favor Which You Can't Buy
Is 
Sufficient And Enough For You: 
Trust Him! 

Whether We Receive The Good Gift Today 
Or Ten Years Down The Road
The Good Gift Remains The Good Gift
Because
It Is The Gift Of The Living, Holy, Ever-Faithful
Almighty God Of Grace And Glory! 

Our Father Who Is In Highest Heaven
Is 
The Lord Most High
Giving And Forgiving
Who Personally Loves You Intimately! 

I Beseech Us All To Keep In Mind That 
Saying "Thank You!" For The Good Gift Received 
By The Lord Of Life's Schedule 
Is 
Always Preferable To Having To Ask For Forgiveness 
Because 
The Lord's Perfectly Timed Schedule 
And 
Our Haphazard All-About-Me Agenda
Violently Collided! 

To Willingly Obey 
Is 
Always Better Than Forced Sacrifice 
And
Sacrificing Sinful Self 
Is 
Most Assuredly Always Better Than 
Sacrificing Soul Salvation! 

Almighty God's Good Gifts Are Glorious! 

Peace!
