Harmonie Had A Little Land
A Corner Plot Of Land
Beside The Highway Broad
Her Back To The Sea Of Sin
And With Her Heart Reaching Out To Wayward Humanity
She Desired To Plant A Crop
That Would Profitable Be!
She Had Planted A Bed Of Let Us Pray:
She Prays Without Ceasing!
She Had Planted A Bed Of Working Faith
A Bed Of Faithful Patience
A Bed Of Creature Comforts:
It Was Doing So-So!
A Bed Of Love And Hope
And
A Bed Of Caring And Sharing
And
She Woke Up One Morning
To Find Mingled With Her Bed Of
Lovingly Cultivated Caring And Sharing
The Distinctive Heads Of Bitter Snares!
Shocked To The Max
All She Could Do At First Was Stare
But Then
Remembering Whose Child She Knows She Is
She Uttered A Heartfelt Prayer
To The Holy One Blessed Forever
And
With Strong Determination
Proceeded To Plant Another Bed Each Of
Working Faith And Faithful Patience!
Her Neighbors' Interest Was Peaked
Because
Everybody Knows That Tending Multiple Beds Of
Working Faith And Faithful Patience
Require Endurance
And
Not Many People Had The Stomach
For That Kind Of Intense Exercise!
Everybody With One Iota Of Common Sense
You Know, That Not Common Thing
Knew That Increasing Working Faith Slowed Life
Aka Slowed The Receipt Of The Heart's Desire
While Substantially Increasing
The Growth Rate Of Faithful Patience
Aka The Patience Of The Saint
- Which No One Ever Enjoys -
Along With Humility
Resting In Love
And
Growing In Grace!
That Growing Season
Always Spells A Deeply Courageous Struggle
With Her Ladyship, Heady Delay
For The One Doing The Growing!
Heady Delay Is Neither Malicious Nor Crude!
She Isn't Presumptuous
And
She Is Never Rude!
She Just Takes Her Cool Time
Ensuring Lessons Are Learnt:
Never Block The Son
Send Down Deep Roots
Stretch Out For Wide Branches
Imbibe Lots Of Water Of The Holy Spirit
Receive Daily Nurturing From And By The Book And
Indulge In Copious Amounts Of Prayer Either By Your Voice Or Silently From Within The Heart!
How Doesn't Matter
As Long As Sinful Doubting Is Not Involved!
To Be Truly Successful
The Grower ... The Saint Of God And Christ Must Not Ever Deviate From The Formula
Because
Deviation Causes Dilemma!
Dilemma Causes Disbelief!
Disbelief Encourages Doubting
And
Doubting Gives Satan A Reason
Against The Maker
In Glee To Parade And Shout!
It Must Be Said ...
Assurance Of Victory
Of A Plenteous Harvest
Is
There From The Start Of The Sowing
The Planting Process
And
Just Requires Conscientious Consistency
Working And Waiting
Watching And Praying
Believing And Receiving:
No Rinsing Required!
Just Repeat!
Be Aware ...
This Isn't A Work For The Unmindful
The Spiritually Lazy
The Boastful Proud
The Limp-Wristed Or Brittle-Kneed Weak! To The Creator
The Maker
The Sustainer
The Provider One Must Constantly, Prayerfully, Willingly, Seek!
Harmonie Is No Shirker!
While She May Not Always Completely Understand
The Then-Prevailing Signs
She Trusts The Book Of Knowledge Completely!
She Heeds The Posted Warnings!
Harmonie Works What She Daily Receives
And
She Works Her Received Faith Practically To A Nubbin
And
At The Start Of Each And Every New Day
A Full Cup
- Enough Faith For That Day -
Is
Always Found In Her Heart's Stores!
Lit Lamps On Lampstands ...
Harmonie's Lifestyle Greatly Offends Gully Boar
Who Is Always On The Rut
Digging Up And Delivering Doubt
And
Who, Personally
Is
Rotten To His Fluffy, Extended, Core!
She Fares No Better With The Grabbits
Or The Gottits!
Gratitude ...
Harmonie Gives Her Maker
Her Lord, God And King
Fervent Thanks And Holy Praise
Whenever Whoever
However Wherever Whatever Comes Her Way!
She Trusts That Her Master
Controls The Why
The Duration, The Beginning, The End
And
All Points In Between
And
Chooses His Will
Never To Deny
Never To Defy!
Harmonie Fully Expects Her Daily Gift!
Its Receipt Is No Surprise:
It Is A Bold Promise In The Good Book!
Her God, Holy
Does Not, Cannot, Lie
And
She Lives In And For Him
And
Daily Sings:
Faith Is Gift That I Daily Receive!
I Look Forward To It With Expectancy!
I Plant My Gift In My Fertile Heart Of Belief
Knowing That In My Jesus
Worked Faith Always Brings Relief
Help For My Journey
Courage For My Way
And The Blessed Assurance
That For My Heart's Willing Confession
And Repentance For Known Sin
I Shall Never For My Own Sin
Have To Pay!
Worked Faith Gives Me Necessary Hope
And Help Each And Every Day
No Matter What That Gully Boar
That Imp Of Satan Repeatedly Says!
Jesus Christ Saves Me
And I'm Praying All The Way
Whether I Am At Work
Or At My Craft Having A Play!
Know The Right ...
FAITH Has The "H" For HOPE ... And Help!
Drop HOPE
And FAITH Become FAIT
Reading:
Fear Always Inspires Torment!
Meaning:
Physical Fear Inspires Spiritual Torment
Leading To:
The Inclusion Of The Letter "N" For Need
And
Causing The Ill-Equipped Soul To FAINT To Fall-Back To Turn Back!
Brethren,
Faith Is A Precious Commodity
Freely, Daily, Available - By Measure -
To Every Body!
It Must Be Worked
Exercised
Or For Disuse
It Is Excised
And, We, At The Mercy Of The Devil
The Enemy Of Our Souls
Shall Be Found Wanting
And
Without Heavenly Goals!
Jesus Christ Is Our Savior
The Only Giver Of Good Gifts
And
He Is The One Who Gives
Of Daily Faith The Gift
So Let Us Be Willing
The Gift To Unwrap
And
Put Same To Use In Our Heart Of Love
So That We May Withstand
All Sure To Come
Demonic, Sinful, Geared To Our Demise
Spiritual, Physical, Emotional Attacks!
Jesus Christ Is The Way
The Truth, The Light, The Life
The Savior, The Redeemer
Our Constant Help
In The Earthly Strife
So Let Us Not Become Weary In Well-Doing
Nor Wayward From Straight, Strait, Walking
For, If We Faint Not
We Shall Rise Upon Wings Of Eagles
Because
Exercised Faith Can Never Fail
And
Its Use Will Always Cause Satan
In Desperation To Bitterly Wail!
Use Your Faith!
Pray For Grace!
Accept Mercy!
Walk In Light
And
The Living God Holy
Just, Faithful, Kind, Loving, Ever True
You Shall Surely Delight!
Fat Faith Blights!
Just So You Know ...
Yesterday's Faith Stays In The Past!
Today's Faith Can't Enter The Future!
Tomorrow's Faith Stays Exactly That
And
Those Who Don't Recognize This
Become To The Living Kingdom The Losers!
... And I Went To The Village Shop To Buy A Little Peace!
A Piece Of What!?!
A Piece Of Peace!
Mercy, Lord! Mercy!
You Can't Buy A Little Far Less A Lot Of Peace AND
Definitely Not In The Village Shop! What's Wrong With You?!
I NEED Peace!
Okay, Then! You NEED Jesus!
I Already Got Jesus! I Need PEACE!
Alright, Then! You Need JESUS!
I Said I Have ...!
...If You Really HAD Jesus You Would Really HAVE Peace!
Huh?! I Go To Church Regularly! I Pay Tithes And Offerings! I Do Work On Four Committees! I Run The Dorcas League! I Teach Bible School! I Sing In The Church Choir! I'm In The Singing Band! I Sponsor Three Orphans! I Work Hard For Jesus! I've GOT Me Some Jesus!
What You've Got Is A Heart For Church Work BUT Have You Given Your Heart To Jesus?!
Have You Confessed Your Sin AND Repented AND Turned Away From Sinning?! Do You Say Your Prayers Really Communing With The Lord?! Do You Read And Study The Living Word AND Are You Walking In Faith With The Lord?
Ahhh... Uh mmm!
Thought So!
Jesus Said:
My Peace I Give Unto You!
You Can't Get It For Yourself!
Money Can't Buy It! Intellect Can't Assume It! AND Man's Vaunted Wisdom Can't Avail Itself Of It!
Peace Is A Gift!
And, Furthermore
Within Peace Is Forgiveness Of Sin AND
Joy In Jesus AND
Rest ... For The Soul!
There Is No Peace For The Wicked AND
No Matter How Much You Go To Church
And Say Lord! Lord! There Is No Peace No Joy In This Life Without Forgiveness For Sin!
Peace Comes Of The Love Relationship With Our Lord!
So, Pray Tell
How Come I'm Now Hearing This ... And From A Pedestrian ... Like You!?! Nobody Ever Told Me That Forgiveness Of Sin Is Tied Up In Peace! All I Ever Heard ... Hear Is Do Good Works! Be Kind! Be Helpful! Share With The Poor ...!
Sweetie, All That Is Going To Get You Is A Free Berth In The Lake Of Fire!
Are You Mad?! I've Devoted My Life To The Church ...!
... But You Have Not Given Over
Committed
Devoted
- Surrendered -
Your Life To The Lord Christ!
Just Doing Church Work
AND
Not Surrendering To God
- In Christ Jesus -
Is Like Going To Work For A Corporation
AND
Faithfully Working
Without Them Knowing That They Hired You!
There Ain't No Paycheck With Your Name On It!
How Straaange ... I Thought God Knew Everything!
Almighty God Does, Indeed
Know Everything
BUT ...
You Still Have To Finalize The Transaction
By Sending Him The Word Of Your Agreement!
You Have To Make The Verbal Commitment!
Word Is Bond!
If What You Are Saying Is True
- And I Don't Doubt You -
Then ... I Guess Not! I Was Told AND I Sincerely Believed That Working For The Lord
IS Devotion To God And That If I Work Faithfully For God I Will Be Saved By Christ The Lord!
I Am Pleased To Work!
Sorry, My Dear!
Pleasure Ain't Peace! Peace Is A Gift! Salvation Is A Gift! Forgiveness Is A Gift! The Love Of God Is A Gift! AND
All Are Compliments Of Jesus Christ AND Without These
No Matter How Sincerely You Believed
That Work Is Commitment To God
Without Change You Will Be Sincerely Lost!
You Cannot Work For God
AND
Live And Play With The Devil!
Read Isaiah 26:3! The Lord Will Keep You In Perfect Peace If Your Mind Is Stayed -Anchored - On Him AND You Trust In Him!
And ...
Without Forgiveness Of Sin
You Are At War With God! Sooo ... No Peace!
That Is So Unfair! I Didn't Know That I Had To Confess Sin AND Repent Of Sin To Get Forgiveness
AND Salvation
AND To Gain ... Peace!
You Know Now, Love!
Yes!
Now I Know!
I've Been So Very, Very, Miserable!
I Was Getting Desperate!
You Would Have To Have Been Desperate To Go To The Village Shop To Buy "A Piece Of Peace!"
Yuh Think!!
PRAYER:
Grant Us Your Grace, Lord!
Give Unto Us
The Treasured Gift Of Your Peace!
Bless Us To Do Your Will
And
From Sin
Grant Us Needed Relief!
We Are Willing Workers, Father!
Please Guide Us Along The Way
And
Help Us To Speak Peace
Whatever It Is
- In Your Name -
That We Do And Say!
Remember The Brethren
Those Near And Those Far
And
Bless Them
According To Your Will
So That They Will Trust The Word Of
Our Savior's Interceding
As We Against
The Devil And Sin
Spar!
Forgive Us Our Trespasses
Against The Holy God
And
Bless Us
Lord, Bless
To Have Faith
For Our Trusty Conveyance
Our Always-Fueled
And
Ever-Operational
Can't-Break-Down
Motor Car!
We Love You, Lord And In Jesus' Name, We Humbly Plead!

The Difference Between A Committed Christian AND An Unbeliever IS The Unbeliever Has A Fall-Back Position BUT The Committed Christian Has A Call-Upon Savior Gloriously Named The Prince Of Peace Jesus Christ The Lord!
My Spirit Is Very Troubled Within Me Reading Hearing About All The Teenage Suicides AND The Reasons Why AND I WONDER Lord Knows ... I Wonder In Whose Ears Did These Poor Unfortunate Desperate Souls Cry?
What Have We Done?
What Are We Doing By "Freeing Up" Society From The "Interfering-In-Our-Pleasure" God AND Giving That Fraud Satan Complete Access To Destroy People's Minds AND Lives Through Seeking Man-Public Social Media Approbation Commendation AND Direction Instead Of Taking One's Hurting Heart To THE ETERNAL ALL SEEING All KNOWING EVER PRESENT

Why Have We Cast Away The Holy God In Whom - From Whom - We Get The Peace Where With We Can This Life Abide!? People, We Have A Savior Who ... For Us Cried! Died! AND YET ISNOW Interceding For Us ... In God's Heaven ... Where He Resides!
