Not To Be Hypocrites
And
Behave Like Those Out There

In The Cruel World

Hoarding All Of The Goodies

That You Provided For All

Uncaring

Not Willing

With Others To Share!

I Ask You To Help Me

To Continue To Believe

To Hope In The Lord
And
To Love Faithfully
And

Ever To Trust!

Help Me To Help Others

To See The Heavenly Light

And

Help Us All To Help Our Brethren

Even Those From Other Mothers
And

Even Those In Lands Where

Their Day Is Our Night!

You Give To Us!

Help Us To Give Back

By Giving To Others

So That All Are Fed

And

For Ourselves

There Is No Lack!

You Promised Provision -

In Jesus' Name

Please Show To The World

That Our Faith Is Backed By Fact!

Father,

With Joy

To The Day

Face To Face

We Shall See Him

In Whose Name To You We Humbly

Petition For Grace In Prayer!

Lord,

In Mercy

Pity The Poor!

The Weak!

The Meek!

Pity Those Who 
For Christ's Readily Available Salvation Seek!

In Pitying Love
I Beseech You, Please
To Remember Those

Who Do Not Yet Know Of The Christ
And

Those For Whom Man's Illumination

Means

They Are Walking Alone

In The Dark Night!

Oh, God

Who Only Is Faithful

Oh, God

Who Alone Is True

Truth

Pity Us Who Pray

For The Indwelling Spirit

By Helping Us

From Sin And Satan

To Be Permanently

Cut Loose

And

Help Us Not To Look Back

And, Thereby

Sweet Salvation Lose!

Please, Lord

I Beseech You

To Grant Us This Day

The Promised Measure Of Faith!

Grant Us, We Pray

The Grace For Walking In The Right Way!

Help Us Not To Turn Aside

To Enter The Pleasure Palaces Of The Night

And

Protect Us

We Beseech Thee

As The Battle For Eternal Life

In Christ

We .. Striving In Faith

Fight!

Oh, For The Faith

That Will Not Shrink

In The Name Of The Holy Jesus

- In Love -

We Humbly Plead

And
Present These Few Petitions!

AMEN.

PRAYER: Father, I Have Learned ...!

Father,

I Have Learned

- And Indeed It Is So -

That As Your Living Word Says

There Is No Profit

No Blessing

In Sin

In Living A Sinful Life

In Doing Sinful Things

For

Therein Is The Way Of Cruel Strife!

With A Heart Contrite

And

A Spirit Broken

I Confess

And

I Repent, Lord

So Please Keep Me

To Do Battle In The Good Fight

For I Now

- In The Faith Of My Jesus -

Deny The Liar

And

His Gutter-Walking Ways

And

I Look Up

For I Now Truly Know

From Whom My Help Comes -

The Ancient Of Days!

Father,

I Am Pleading!

Help Me To Not Look Back!

Help Me To Not Be Like

Mrs. Lot

For

I Have No Desire

To Suffer The Eternal Blot!

I Desire To See The Light

He Who Gives Life

In Peace

And 

In Raptures

When He Breaks The Clouds In The East!

I Desire To Be Glorified

To Be Clothed In Heaven's Garments Of White

And

I Desire To Rise Up

To Meet My Lord And My God

And

With All The Redeemed Of God

And 

With Angelic Companions

To Make The One-Way Flight!

Lord,

I Desire The New Name

The True Gold Crown

The Overcomers' Victory Palm

And

I Desire To Possess The Instrument Of Praise

That Golden Harp

And

Lord, Have Mercy

I Do Desire To Hear:

"My Child! Well Done!

Take This Your Place!"

Father,

Only You Can Bless Me!

Only The Holy Spirit Can Keep!

On Jesus Can Plead For Me

And

Only Holy Angels

- At Your Command -

Can Ever Protect Me!

I Give You Praise!

Grant Me, Lord

The Dailies - Grace

Faith, Mercy

And

Personal Over-Sin Victory

And

Please, Dear Father

Help Me To Sing Your Name

Like A Joyful Canary

Whenever That Decimating Fraud

In All His Iterations

Against Me

Does Approach!

Lord,

Help Me

So That Against Me

He Had Nothing About Which To Gloat!

Father,

I Willingly Give My Self To You

And

Also My Will

And

My Way

And

I, In Full Control

Of All My Faculties

Say:

In Jesus' Name

Lead The Way!

Lead The Way!

I Love You!

I Bless You!

In The Hope Of The Promises

- With Your Rich Blessing -

I Shall Stand

For

In Denying That Gross Liar

I Also Reject The Traditions 

Of Fallen Hell-bent And Bound Man!

I Give You All My Praise

And

All My Worship

In The Name Of Him

Who Shall Soon

Put In His Appearance - Jesus The Christ!

AMEN!

Lord, I Am Rejoicing In Thee!

Fear God!

Vice Is A Costly Indulgence
Oft' Brought To Our Door
By One Whom
With Us
Has That Thing Called Influence!
Its Effects Are Like Those Of 
A Great Pestilence
AND
The Cost To Repair The Damage
Is Often The Cost 
Spent In The Arena Of Those
Living The Life Of Affluence
AND
Then ... It  Can Cost The Life!
Even Eternal Life!

Vice Is Not Nice!
In Retrospect
It Is As Lice!
To Pick Them Up
Requires No Effort At All
BUT
To Get Rid Of Them
Requires Every Last Effort
Available For Use 
On The Blue Ball!

In The Call To Vice
Risqué Seems Nice!
To Maintain Vice
Risqué Needs Spice
AND
Pity The Person
Who Says:

Vice Is Just Play!

To Which I Say:

Ask God!

AND
Then Tell Me What He 
In His Living Word Doth Say!

Living Right
Requires Effort Every Day!
Living Like A Louse
Well ... Just Live
For
Anywhere Is Your House!

Let's Trust God For Our Living!
He Is Our Guardian
Our Guide
AND
Our Stay!
Let's Do What He Tells Us
AND
For Own Sin
There Is No Bill To Be Paid!

Living According To The Rules Of Vice
Is Living According To 
Satanic Device!
Doing That Makes Us
Friends Of The World
AND
Marks Us Boldly 
As An Enemies Of The Lord!

Vice Kills
The Mind
The Body
AND
The Spirit
Stone Cold!
The Thoughts Are Beclouded!
Just Ask Solomon Of Old
Who Used His Great Wisdom
To Explore Every Sense
BUT
It Left Him As A Man
Broken
Idolatrous
AND
At Body
AND
Also Great Spiritual National Expense!

But ... GOD

In His Mercy
Opened King Solomon's Eyes
AND
Solomon Repented
Of The Life Of Vice
Which Nearly Cost Him
Eternal Life
AND
As A Word Of Caution
To Those Who Him Walk Behind
That Preacher
King Solomon
Wrote The Book Of Ecclesiastes
As The Book Of Living Life Warnings!

All Is Vanity!
All Is Vanity
AND
A Vexation To The Spirit!
So Hear The Conclusion Of The Whole Matter
AND
Do Not Forget It:

Fear God

And

Keep His Commandments

For They Will 

- Indeed -

Preserve Your Life!

Everything We Do
God Brings Into Judgment!
Secret Things
Good Things 
AND
Evil Things
In This Mortal Strife!
God Is Watching 
AND
Keeping Records On You 
AND
Me, Too
So
This Is Worth Repeating: 

Fear God

And 

His Commandments Keep

For This Is Your Whole Duty

As Long As You Are Living!

The Great Commandments

God Gave Moses

Two Stone Tablets

Containing

Ten Commandments

Written With

The Fiery Finger Of God

And Not That Of Some Elf!

These Commandments

Tend To The Whole Life

AND

Prosperity Of All People

AND

Are Not To Be Relegated To

Some Dusty Out Of The Way Book Shelf!

Some People

Would Have Us To Believe That

Some Commandments Are Better

Than Others More

AND

Some People Would Have Us To Believe

That The Commandments

That Are To Self

Of Lesser Importance

We Can

With Gross Impunity

TOTALLY Ignore!

BUT,  FRIEND ...

I Beg Here To Differ

AND

I Must Tell You

You Have Got A Wrong Score

For

Jesus, Himself

Gave To Us

The Correct Tally In

Matthew Chapter 22:37-40!

Check The Bible For Yourself

To Make Sure!

The Ten Commandments

Are Actually Two Great Commandments, My Brethren

With The First Being

To Love God

With Every Thing That A Human Being Has Got

AND

The Second Commanding

That We Love Our Neighbor

Just As Much As We Love Our Selves

Which Means

Love Them Nuff Nuff

Aka Love Them A Lot!

Commandments One To Four

Regarding Our Love Toward Almighty God

Are Summed Up In Great Commandment One!

Commandments Five To Ten

Disclosing Our Love

With Our Fellow Man

Are Enfolded In Great Commandment Two!

We Cannot Separate

One From One

AND

Still Have Two

AND

We Can't Cut Off

Our Lower Jaw

AND

Still Necessary Food Chew!

NOW ...

You Can't Keep

Great Commandment One

AND

Break Great Commandment Two

AND

You Can't Keep Great Commandment Two

AND

Put Great Commandment One Under Your Shoe

For

If You Don't Love Your Brother Who

You Can't Help But See

How Can You Love

The Holy God

Who Is Shrouded In

Invisibility?

Love God?

Love Yourself!

If You Will To Love God

You Must Will To Love

Even Your Hateful Neighbor You Call Mess 

As You Do The Face In Your Mirror

To Which Your Devoted Love

You Delightedly

Amourously

Confess!

Jesus Made The Way

AND

Provides The Light!

Jesus Made The Man

AND

Gave Him Eyesight!

We May Close Our Eyes

So That We May Not See

BUT

Ignoring Truth

Doesn't Make The Consequences Any Less Deadly!

Know Truth? 

Do Right!

and

Walk In Christ's Light!

God Is My Shepherd!

I Desire To See Him
Who
For Me
Gave His Life!

I Desire To Live With Him
Who Ended
The Conflict
Between Death And Life!

I Desire To Walk Holy!
I Desire To Sing The Glad Refrain:

Blessing And Glory

AND

Thanksgiving And Honor

Unto The Holy Name!

Lord, I Love You!

I Have Chosen To Walk Your Way!

It's Too Late To Turn Back

AND

I Refuse To Know There's Such A Way!

I Have In My Hand

The Blood-Soaked 

Heaven-Is-Home Ticket

AND

I Am Glad To Confess

I Can't Afford The Turn-Back Fare!

Dear God, You Are My Shepherd

You Lovingly Guide Me Along The Way

AND

Because Of This Treasured Blessing

Satan And His Machinations

I Will Not Fear!

Amen.

Crying Foul!

Why Do Humans Always Cry:
"Fowl! Foul!"
When Their Goose Gets Picked?

Mother,  Your Daughter Cutting Class!

Not True!
She Left Home For School On Time!
She's A Good Girl!

Mother,  Your Son Ain't Acting Right 
And He's Doing Some Things That Will Get Him In Trouble!
Right Now He In A Street Fight!

Not My Son!
He's A Good Boy! 
He Don't Never Even Raise His Voice In The House!

*******

Daughter?

Where You Get All These Expensive Clothes From?!

Aren't They Lovely, Mum?!  
Mary-Beth's Dad Took Us Shopping!

Three Months Later ...

Daughter?!
How You Get Pregnant When You Ain't Got No Boyfriend?!

Well, Ahmmm
Welllll, You See ...
Muuum, Mary-Beth, uhh, Jane's Father ...!

My Son!
Not My Son!
How He Get Dead?!

Sis, He Hung Himself!

My Son?!
Dead?!?!
How?!

Ma'am, He Held Up A Liquor Store 
And The Security Guard Shot Him Dead!

*******

Suicidal Homicidal Children
Looking For Parental Love
Parents In Denial
Looking For Their Own Happiness
And, Sometimes
Even For A Lil' Grub!

Mother's In Denial
Father's Tempting Fate
Children Are Emotionally
Physically Hungry
And Are Loose
Outside Safety's Locked Gate

The Children Never Hear: "No!"
The Parents Always Say: "Yes!"
So Now
There's Nothing To Save The Children
Not Even Bullet Proof Vests!

AND,  Then ...

Why Me?
Why My Child?
Why Did It Have To Happen To Them!?!

Now Daddy 
Now Mommy, Too
Want To Lie Down And Die
For Having Neglected Duty
For Abrogating Responsibility
Preferring Private Personal "Me Time!"
To Parenting Responsibly!

Children Are A Blessing
A Gift From The Holy God

BUT ...

BUT ... Satan
Lying Satan
Perpetrator Of Innumerable Frauds
Has Convinced All ...  And Sundry
That "To Thine Own Self Be True!"
Means Responsibility Is An Inconvenience
AND
"Do What Thou Wilt!"
Is The Guide For Living 
The Successful Life
The Fulfilled Life
The Life That Self Built!

BUT ...

Like All Things In This Life
Runaway Chicken Always Comes Home To Roost
And The Food That Caused Yuh Sweet Mout'
Often Burns In The Waste Coming Out!

Just As God Teaches And Chastises His Children
Who Are Not Bastards
But Are Of The Blood
We Parents Must Lead By Good Example
Correcting
Directing
Anchoring Our Children
In The Good Book Of God's Love!

Children And Parents Cannot Be Best Buds
Doing Their Own Thing Together Apart!
Parents Must Remember To
"Bend The Tree While It Is Still Supple!"
Or End Up Hollering
"Where Is Almighty God?!"
When Their Children Get Into Real Trouble!

A Self-Centered Life

  

Always Ends

 In Self-Made Disaster!
