Happy Sabbath + Exhortation!

Exhorted! 

          Commanded! 

                       Encouraged!

The Pointy Stick! 

The Hammer! 

The Embrace! 

How Often, Beloved, Have You Read The Bible

Or Heard A Sermon From A Faithful Steward

And 

Felt That The Exhortation Was Nothing More Than A Burden

A Pointy Poking Stick That 

Commanded Your Attention So Roughly That 

It Was As Though It Was Being Hammered Into You 

And 

Pounding Soft And Delicate You Into Mush Or Mash!?! 

How Long Did It Take Before You Realized That 

That Charged Word Known Truthful, Necessary

Was Encouragement, An Embrace, From The Heart Of Our God Eternal 

Who Makes Wrong Things Right

And 

Makes Broken Things Whole

And 

Causes The Dead To Live Again!?! 

What Made The Difference!?! 

Was It When You Realized That 

The Love Of God Was To And For You 

And

For You Made Bitter Herbs Sweet

The Winding Path Straight

The Rough Places Smooth

The Impossible Possible

And 

The Hellish Existence The Road To Glory 

Because 

Jesus Christ's Love To You Was Home Calling You Home!?! 

Dear Ones, 

The Love Of God

- The Sacrificial Love Of The Just One - 

Was Made For All 

And

Whosoever Is Willing To Be Saved Will Reap Its Sweets! 

Will You Accept The Charge That Is From That Account That 

Is 

Always Free And Fully Funded 

By Our Forever Faithful Friend And Forgiving Father!?! 

Listen Again With Love For The Lover Of Your Soul 

And 

Let Him Lovingly Lead You To His Eternal Life! 

The Word Of Life Fashions Us

Feeds Us

And 

Fills Us Up Forever! 

Peace!
