GRACE IS THE PERFECT GIFT: Return Unto The Lord!

Marvelous Grace 

Is 

Perfect For Whatever Ails Us 

Because 

It Is Alive When It Leaves The Heart Of God To Strengthen Us 

And 

Help Us In Our Time Of Need! 

Dead Things Can't Help Living People 

So Let No One Fool You 

Be They Man-Flesh Or Evil Spirit! 

Beloved, 

Though Presently Corrupted ... And Corruptible

We Were Made In The Image Of The Living God 

And 

After His Likeness! 

As Our Sworn Enemies

Satan And His Fallen Angels Are Working Non-Stop 

To Cause Us Not To Regain What Was Lost 

By Mother Eve Being Deceived 

And 

Father Adam Being Disobedient! 

Not One Of Us Can Enter The Father's House 

Without Becoming As Jesus Christ Is! 

We Must Know Jesus Christ The Same Way That He Knows Us! 

Our Beloved Savior, Jesus 

Paid The Infinite Price Aka His Life For Our Lives! 

He Took All Of Our Sin Into Himself 

So That We, By Willing And Free Choice

May Take His Free Gift Of Salvation As Our Very Own! 

Think About It ...

The Joy Of Receiving A Wrapped Gift 

Is 

Enthusiastically Opening It

And 

Finding That It Is Our Heart's Desire

The Very Thing We Needed

Plus A Lil' Something Extra 

And

Totally Unexpected! 

Grace Is Glorious: 

Almighty God Is Good! 

Glorious Gifts Are Given: 

Jesus Christ Shed His Innocent Blood! 

Take The Blessing: 

Rise Above Sin's Destructive Flood! 

Without Truth, There Is No Grace: 

Seek Jesus Christ The King! 

Choose To Wash In The Blood That Cleanses

And

Boldly Dare ToPursue Peace With Jesus Christ The Lord!

PRAYER: Father, Forgive My Folly!

Father,
Forgive Me My Folly!
For A Moment, Yesterday
In A Fit Of Seeming Madness
I Lived In The Bold Sight Of My Eyes
And
Discontent Near Well Consumed Me!

Please, Won't You Fix 

This Deceitful Man-Heart That Is Mine?

I Am Not Hungry!
I Am Not Naked!
I Have A Sound Roof Over My Head

And
I Have Options:

Eat Don't Eat!
Sleep Don't Sleep!
Walk! 

Run!
Speak To A Brother Sister!
Read A Book!
Do A Stitch!
Feel The Warmth
Of The Sun

And
The Son
And Yet ...!

Father,
I Believe In You!
I Trust You!
I Love You!
I Bless Your Holy Name
And 

I Have The Blessing
Of Your Provision For My Needs
And 

I Know I Serve The Eternal
The Great God Of Grace
Who Has Made
In His Home
For Me A Heavenly Place
And

It Is Only Because Of Your Spirit
That I Realized 

Recognized

What A Mere Moment
Of Inward Focus
Can Create For A Soul!

Lord,
What Happens To Those
Who Have Not Christ
For Their Locus?!

I Have Little
But It Is Enough!
Many Have Much More
But

In The Round Of Daily Discontent
They Desire Great Houses
To Warehouse Their Stores
Of Goods Not Good
Grand Things Not Great
And 

For Satisfaction
To The Devil They Gradually Speed
By Locking You Outside
Their Swollen
Prideful Heart's
Rusting And Locked Gate!

Pity Them!

Pity Us All, Lord!

Let Not Satan 

- By Fraud -

The Faithful Few 

Decimate!

Father,
I Do Not Covet
Another Man's Goods
Nor The Person Of Their Spouse
Their Mechanical Cattle
Their Land
Nor Their House
But 

What I Do Covet 

Is Your Favor
Your Blessing Today
Please, In Mercy
Rid Me Of Those Traits Of Character
- Inherited Or Cultivated -
Those Spirits
Of Discontent
Hate Greed Lust
Faithlessness
Doubt
And
Will To Sin
That Satan May Exploit
To Ride Me Around
Causing Me To Live
In Ungodly Fear
And 

Sinful Doubt!
Lord, Give Them All The Damnation Rout!

I Am Yours, Lord!
Help Me To Guard My Heart
By Not Focusing Inward
But Out And Up
By Doing The Blessed Work Of My Master
And
Offering To Help Another Soul
Be It By Hand Up
Or Help Out!

Father,
The Living Word
Is Daily Being Proven True
And 

With The Working Faith

Of The Forefathers

And 

In The Believing Faith Given By The Holy Jesus
In Whose Name I Make This Plea
Lord,
For My Present Help
- In Humility -
I Look To Thee!
For Your Coming Kingdom

Please Save And Seal Me!
AMEN.

God IS! + PRAYER: Father, I Am Tired Of Running ...!

Denying That Satan Exists
Or
That He Can Damage You
Doesn't Make His Power Less Effective
When He Preys Upon
AND
Does Maliciously Attack You!

Denying God's Existence
When Jesus Comes To Judge You
Won't Make Your Eternal Punishment
- Which Is Separation For The Holy God -
Easier To Bear
For
Covering Your Eyes
Your Ears
AND
Wringing Your Hands
Just Displays The Folly
That Kept Your Company
As You Walked In Your Own Way!

Jesus Christ Is The Commander
The Captain Of All Heaven's Great Hosts
He Is Coming To Give Each Being His Rewardings
AND
That Includes That Evil Spirit Satan
Who Chose To Be The Head Goat!

Goats Have Kiddies
AND
Kiddies Are Own Way
AND
I Was One
Until That Great Day
When The Master
The Teacher
The Creator
Met Me In The Way
AND
Softly Said:

Isn't It Time That You Stopped
From Truth Running Away?

I Looked Left!
I Looked Right
BUT
Not Directly At Him
Until I Felt The Hand
Gentle
Under My Chin!
It Was Commanding
Calming
Calling
AND
I Felt The Tears
Washing Away My Regrets
AND
My Choking Fears!

I, Then
Cried Out ...

PRAYER:

Father,

Please Help ME!

I Am Tired Of Running!

Help Me!

Fix Me!

Make Me Anew!

I've Been A Willful Runner!

Lord, Make Me A Walker!

A Walker

Quietly Walking With

And

Unto You!

I Can't Run Anymore!

I Am Tired, Too!

Running With The World, Father

Has Been Decidedly Weaning My Soul

From Heeding You!

I Repent, Dear Lord

Of Walking In My Own Way

For

It Paid Me In A Coin

That Spends

But
Does Not Anything Good

Acquire Along That Pathway!

I Ran With The Liars

The Whoremongers
And

The Thieves!

I Even Ran With The Devils

And
Dear Lord
I Picked Up Gross And Evil Fleas!

Lord,

Clean Me, I Beseech You!

I Want To Come Home!

Hold My Hand!

Lead Me!

I No Longer Desire To Walk Alone!

The Master

The Savior

The Redeemer

The Friend

Drew Me To His Breast

AND
Did Me Gently Kiss!

Forgiveness!

Forgiveness!

Oh, How My Heart Sang!

Forgiveness Of All My Sin

AND

In My Head 

I Heard The Bells In Heaven

As They Rang!

I Will Not Say

That Life Became Easy

From That Day

BUT

I Will Say With Confidence

That Now

I Know How To Get The Comfort Of Jesus

For

All I Have To Do

Is Say
A Believing Heart's
Trusting-In-God Prayer!
