VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: True Beauty!

KJV Psalms 49:20
20 Man that is in honour, and understandeth not, is like the beasts that perish.

Beauty ... Exposed A Beast! 
The Beauty Of That Beast Called Lucifer, Renamed Satan
Wrought Pain For Me And Thee! 

To Rid Me And My Kind Of The Pain That Is Sin 
Which Causes Death And Ultimately Damnation
The Truly Beautiful Savior ... The Eternal God
Took Our Sin, Our Pain
Our Death
Our Damnation Into Himself
And 
Gave Us His Ineffaceable, Ineffable
Fadeless, Immortal, Incorruptible Beauty 
... If ... We Would But Ask 
Because 
It Is Free! 

Our Savior's Pain Purchased For Me, For You
For Us All Willing
True Beauty
The Kind Of Beauty Which Is Righteous
Holy, Grace-Filled 
And 
Comes Of Obtained Mercy 
Which Welcomes Us To The Throne 
And 
Seats Us At The Table Of The King Of Love! 

Dear Ones, 

We Have A Choice To Make 
Which Has An Inherent Challenge To Overcome! 

Are You Going To Party On Easy Street 
Or Live On Hard Way!?! 

Are You Going To Go Easy And Immoral 
To "Gain" Short-term Benefit To Please Your Lusts 
And 
Impress The Wicked And The Gullible 
Or Are You Going To Make The Hard Decision 
Which Gleans For You The Eternal Weight Of Glory 
As You Bless Your Savior With Your Obedience To His Will 
... Even As You Walk In His Way 
Blessing His Called And Chosen Ones 
Who Are Diligently Seeking His Face And His Extended Hand 
Which Bring Hope, Help And Healing
... As We Head, With The Endurance Of Faith
To Our Father's House 
Which Is Our Forever Home!?! 

Jesus Christ Is Love Is Beauty ... Beautiful! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Let Him Envelop You 
As You Bury Yourself In Him 
To Be Like Him Now, Today ... Forever! 
Peace!

The Beauty Of The Lord ...!

He Had No Form Or Comeliness
That One Should Desire Him
But Within
Is 
The Beauty Of The Lord
And

We Are To Become Like Him!

Man Looks At The Outward Appearance
But, God
God Looks Ever At The Heart
And This Should Make Our Task Clear
And

From His Ways
We Should Never Depart!

Beautiful Skin ...

Outward Beauty Is Skin Deep!
Against A Quiet And Gentle Spirit
There Is No Law!
Outward Beauty
Having Flaws
Fades
But

Inner Beauty
Is 
The Perennial Joy To Behold
For
The Spirit Of The Lord Indwelling
Makes The Heart ... Gold!

The Beauty Of The Lord

Is
His Character:
His Love 
His Joy
His Peace
His Rest
His Grace
His Faith
His Mercy
His Giving 
His Forgiving 
His Blessing Spirit 

His Heart
His Holiness


Beautiful Savior ...

The Savior
Is
Not Beautiful 
To Those Who See No Profit
In The Gifts That He Bears! 

The Savior Is Not Seen As Beautiful
Because
Their Eyes Are Blinded
By Ephemera
And

Their Ears Blocked To Loving Entreaty
So That They Don't Believe
The Goodness That He Shares!

The Fact Of The Matter ...

Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder!
Beauty Is By Utility!
If I Don't See A Purpose
That Adds To
Aka Blesses Me
Then Your Beauty
To Me
Is Sheer Futility!
You Serve No Purpose!

Such, Then
Is 
The Christ
To Those With The Spirit Of
The Scribes And The Pharisees
The Jewish Leaders
And
The Disciple Turned Traitor Judas
In The Time When Jesus Walked The Earth!

The Proud Were Looking For A Bright King
A Caped Conqueror!
A Loud Leader!
A Lavish Lord!

They Got, Instead
A Calm Commoner
A Helpful Healer
A Teaching Preacher
A Ready Feeder
A Spirit-Filled Crusader
A Change Agent
Who Did Their Hopes Dash
Because, Because, Because
He Wasn't Into Power
And

He Had No Bright Baubles
AndHe Wasn't Slinging The Ready
Aka The Cash!

They Were Spiritual Prostitutes!
Jesus Christ Rejected The Position Of Pimp!

Ergo ...

There Was No Meeting Of The Minds
And

There Was The Drawing Of The Battle Lines!

Swords Were Drawn!
Axes Were Ground!
And
Demons On A Mission
Amongst The Brethren
Were More Than A Few
And
The Lamb ... Silent
Was Slaughtered
In Time
And

On Cue!

However ...

Those Who Looked
Who Longed
For His Appearing
Saw His Sacrifice
And
Cried!

Those Who Looked Not For Him
But Another
Gnashed Their Teeth
And
Adroitly Lied!

Know This For Sure ...

At Time's Coming End 
There Will Be No Fence-Riders
No Hangers-Ons
No Drugged-Out Groupies
And

Only Those Who Love The Marred Face
Hands Feet
And

Spear-Imprinted Side
Will Be Rejoicing!
Everybody Else
Will Be Looking To Hide!


Jesus Christ
Loves His Little Children
And

He Perfumes
Every Heart-Felt Prayer
With
The Fragrance Of Innocent Blood
Spilt
And
Packaged
In
Redeeming Love!



Brethren ...

Almighty God
Looks Not At Our Outward Appearance
So
How About Our
Taking A Verse From The Good Book!
How About Our
Taking A Bold Look At His Heart
And

Then Bidding Sin
Self
And

Satan
From Our Hearts
To Depart!?!

Is Jesus Christ
The Righteous One
** Beautiful **
In. Your. Eyes!?!

*******

Dear Jesus,
Just A Short Note To Say:

You Fill My Eyes!
I Love You!

Yours, Always
Your Child Well-Beloved
