If A Dumb Animal Can Understand The Assignment, So Can We!

We Can Learn A Lot From A Dog! 

Beloved, 

If You Have Ever Seen One Of Those News Reports 

About An Obedient And Faithful Dog Aka Man's Best Friend 

Who We Know Has Been Abandoned, Deserted

But Who Had Been Instructed To Wait For Its Master 

And

Will Not Leave Its Post Of Duty 

Even Though Others Understand Its Situation 

And 

Are Trying To Help The Poor Dear

We, Committed Christians, Should Have 

An "Aha!" Moment! 

Dear Ones, 

If A Dumb Animal Can Understand The Assignment

So Can We! 

We Are To Wait ... Patiently ... On The Lord Jesus 

With The Full Expectancy Of The Fore-Knowledge That 

He Favors Us 

And

Will Call Unto Us

Hear Us, Help Us, Heal Us

Feed Us, Protect Us

Direct Us, Correct Us

Deliver Us, Bless Us, Teach Us 

And

In The Glad Day

Collect Us Whom He Has Already Redeemed 

From Death, The Grave 

And 

The Damnation That Is Hell

To Carry Us Home! 

King David Knew The Depth Of Despair 

And

He Experienced The Height Of The Euphoria That 

Comes When One Finally Experiences

Contentment In And With Christ 

When We Touch Him Aka Home By Faith

And

Look Forward With Unabashed Joy 

To The Fulfillment Of The Blessed Hope

The Eternity Of Peace That 

Is 

Life With Our Dear Savior 

In The Land Of Love

The Home Of The Forever Blessed! 

Got Questions!?! 

Jesus Christ Is Always The Answer: 

Keep Your Hope In Him Alive! 

Peace!

No Regrets Later!

Dedicated To The Task

I Was Walking 

Along The Way Of Life
Contented 

To Walk With The Lord
Until 

The Day I Came To The Cross Roads
AND
Read The Bill Board
Identifying Each Road
As Can Only Be Written
By The Fraud!

Out Of The Blue ...

My Mind Became Cloudy!
My Spirit Became Fevered

As Fevered As Fevered Can Be!

Everything Seemed So Exciting
AND
This Thing

That Thing

These Things

Those Things

All Things
Were Calling 

Calling

Calling Out To Me!

I Felt Drawn
Enamored
AND
I Wondered:

"What If ...!"

When I Smelled The Aroma
Of Someone Smoking A Spliff!

I Heard Raucous Music!
I Heard A Laughing Uproar!
I Heard Two Voices Three
Screaming ...

"Let Me Out Of This Door!"

I Heard Glasses Clinking

AND
I Heard A Funeral Dirge
BUT
I Heard No Voice Praying
To The Master
For
Those Souls Were Indulging
Suffering
From The Unexpected

The Unanticipated 

Foul Purge!

I Felt Myself Pulled Up Sharply!
My Heart Was Not Here
On 

The Wide Expanse
Of 

Wasted Lives
For
I Wanted
Desired
Yearned
To Walk Straight
From Common Living
Unto Eternal Life
Which Could Only Be Accomplished
By Walking The Straight And Narrow Way
BUT
Here
I. Was. Being. Tempted!
From My Lord
To Go Astray!

In The Faith Of Jesus Christ

That I Held To Me So Dear
I Said:

"Father, I Am Thine!"

Please Point Me

And

Bless Me To Walk

On The Straight Line

For You Are My God

Holy And Divine!

Help Me To Stay On The Right Path

Help Me Not To Flesh To Step Aside!

Help Me To Deny That Liar!

God Of Glory 

Be My Guardian And My Guide!

Help Me In Thy Love Ever To Abide!

AMEN.

I Looked Again
At That Bill BoardTurned Guide Post

AND
- Though Nearly Obscured -
I Found The Path
Marked

"Right Way

... For Those That Faithful Be!"

AND
Giving God Praise
For

A Weak-By-Self-Strong-In-God-Victory

I Plodded Gladly Onward
To That Gloriously Eternal

Eternal City!

The Way Is Oft' Hard
BUT
The Great God Is Good
For
My Companions Are Holy Angels
AND
The Holy Spirit
Is My Comforter

AND

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

I Have

Faithful To God

Stood!

Brethren,
Do Not Be Presumptuous!
Do Not Assume That You Can
Of Your Own Self
Know The Way!
Pay Attention!
AND
Really Read The Guide Posts
For
They Are There For
Correction
Protection
Direction
AND
Are Not To Be Ignored
Because Of Wilful Self's Predilection!

Take Time
To Read With Understanding!
Walk In Faith

AND
Put Blind Eyes 

AND

Lustful Urges
On The Back Burner Called Past Life
AND
Trust The Word Of Truth

AND

Not Him Who 

Always - Justifying Sin - Has A Plaster

AND

Is Justly Called

The King Of Disaster!

Put Faith First

And

Have No Regrets Later!
