When We Look At What Is Happening In Other People's Lives
And
When We Observe The Hash, The Mess, That
Some People Are Making Of Their Own Lives
We Would All Do Well To Humbly Say:
"There ... But For The Grace
Of
The Living God
I Go!"
It Is Quite Easy For Us To Go "Tsk, Tsk!"
And
Be All High-Minded
And
Top-Lofty
When We Are Looking Down On Others
But
We Need To Seriously, Thankfully, Consider
And
Be Grateful For Jesus Christ The Lord
Who Is Looking Down Upon Us All ... In Love ... All Of The Time!
Beloved,
A Saint Of God And Christ
Is
A Reforming Sinner
Walking As One Being Sanctified ... Set Apart
Rising Up Higher And Higher
As He Or She
Is
Headed Toward Beautiful Beulah Land!
Let Us All Remember That
The Journey Is Not For The Swift
The Battle Is Not To The Strong
And
The Crown Is Not For The Worldly-Wise And Wealthy:
Life Eternal
Is
For The Over-Comer
The Saint Whose Life
Is
Lived By, For, And In Jesus Christ!
Let Us Not Be Proud And Arrogant:
Be Humble And Wise!
Let Us Humble Ourselves Under The Mighty Hand Of God
So That He Will Lift Us Up ... At The Appointed Time!
Let Us, By Almighty God's Great Grace
Give A Helping Hand To Others
Even As The Hand Of God
Is
Moment By Moment Helping Us!
We Have Hope, Help, Health, Healing
And
A Home In Heaven
In Him Who Hears And Cares For Us:
Let Us Pray And Plead
And
Hear And Obey
And
Endure All Things For Christ Jesus ... Until The End
As We Believe In The Promises That Cannot Fail!
Let Us Walk In His Light ... The Light Of Life
As He Leads Us To The Land Of No Night!
Peace Be Upon You
As You Rest In Christ Jesus!
