I Know What I Want, But I Need What The Lord Jesus Has For Me! Which Desire Shall Win The Lord Already Knows, But I Need To Find Out And Designate It! Lord, Help!
Come On, Saira, You Know Right From Wrong, Truth From Error, Need From Want, AND, Most Importantly, You Well Know That Any Gift Given To You From Our Lord Jesus Is Best And Blessed, No Sorrow To Follow!
That Is True, Gabby, But I ...!
... Stop Right There, Saira! There Is No "But" When It Comes To Our Trusting The Lord For And In All That Concerns Us And Our Well-Being!
I Know, Gabby, But ...!
... There You Go Again Butting! Are You A Goat Of The Hard-Head Persuasion!?!
No, Gabby, It Is Just That ...!
... Father, Preserve Us!
Saira, Pick One: Apple, Orange, Or Banana!
Do You Have Granny Smith, MacIntosh, Or Red Delicious Apples!?!
They Are MacIntosh Apples!
Are The Oranges Blood, Juice, Bitter, Or Navel!?!
Are You For Real!?!
Yes, I Am! I Have Standards, You Know!
Okay, They Are Navel Oranges!
Are The Bananas Lady Finger, Apple Banana, Or Big Mike Bananas!?!
They Are Apple Bananas!
I Do Not Like Any Of Those Choices So I Can't Make A Decision!
Lord, Save Us!
Brethren, This ... This Is A Classic Example Which Demonstrates Why Most Of Us Will Never Get To Enter The Land Where We Won't Cast Shadows!
Would You Like To Explain That Remark, Gabby!
Gladly, Saira!
The Lord Jesus, Our Very Creator, The Life Giver, Offers And Makes Available, And Easily Accessible, Free-To-All Salvation, And Most Of Us, Like Our Saira, For Example, Instead Of Accepting The Gift Without Price Or Equal From The Only Wise God, Proceed To Have "Standards" And Offer The Lord Their "Specifications" While Failing Or Neglecting To Realize ...!
... You Mean Pridefully Fronting With Nothing, Gabby!
I Was Trying To Be Delicate, Delia!
Well, You Failed!
Okay, Moving On Smartly!
We Fall Short Of The Lord's Glory, Have Nothing To Offer To Save Ourselves, And, Yet, We Have Demands, Non-Negotiables, And Red Lines For The Lord ... He Who Gives The Breath Of Life! Would Somebody Make This Make Sense!?!
You're Asking For The Impossible, Gabby!
Do You Have Anything To Say Besides "Sorry, Lord!" Saira!?!
Hearing How You've Laid It Out, Gabby, Makes Me Sound And Feel Like A Real Ingrate!
We All Need To Accept That Charge, Saira, Because That Is Exactly How We All Behave, Or Have Behaved, Before We Acknowledged Our Bankrupt Behavior And Confessed Our Sin With A Heartfelt Repentance To Our Father In The Name Of His Son, Our Savior, Jesus! Scripture Speaks Truly About Us!
How So, Sue!?!
It Asks, "What Can A Man Pay To Redeem His Soul!?!"
You Know That It Takes A Truly Weighty Pair Of Brasses To Tell The Lord, The Judge Of All Flesh, The Creator, That His Gift Has Gaps, And That His Glory Ain't All That!
Lord, Forgive Our Foolishness Even As You, In Mercy, Remember Our Frame!
AMEN!!!
Whatever The Lord Has For Us Is Perfectly Perfect!
That's Not True, Trent!
What Do You Mean, Manny!?!
Perfectly Perfect Suggests The Possibility That lt Could Have Been Perfectly Imperfect: Both Are Made-Man Constructs!
Let Us Use The Lord's Words To Us About His Gifts For Us! Almighty God's Gifts To Us Are Good And ... Perfect ... No Qualification!
Gabby!?!
Yes, Saira!?!
I Will Take An Apple, A Banana, And An Orange!
Greedy, Much!?!
The Lord Giveth Grandly And I Accepteth Gladly!
AMEN!!!
Peace, People!
