Greedy Grunts Get Gain!



If Life Gives Me A Candy
And I Drop On The Ground
It Picks Up Extraneous Matter
And Eating It Is Not Thought Sound!
I Now Have To Spend Money 
To Get Another Candy Piece
And
It Just Does Not Taste Like The Discarded Piece:

"Here! You Have It!
It's Not My Flavor!
I'll Get Another Piece!"

When God Gives Me A Blessing
I Can Be Certain Sure
That Even If I Accidentally Drop It
I Can Still Utilize It Straight Off The Floor!

God's Blessings Collect No Besmirchments!
God's Blessings Smells Not Of Yesterday
And 
I Don't Have Any Need
To Spend A Red-head Penny
Nor 
Beg Someone To Give Me Any!

Worldly Blessings
Come With High Costs
Including The One
That Turns Hearts
Into Jars Of Cold Frost
Willing To Beg
Borrow and Cheat
Willing To Savage Mommy
Daddy,  Gran and Baby
To Put A Pair Of Vile-looking Snakeskin Shoes 
On Seriously Wrong-Walking Feet!

God's Blessings
Come With Heaven's Long View
Able To Support The Recipients
Plus
Another One Or Two!

God's Blessing 
Blesses The Wise One
Who Knows How To Care
And
Bless Also Another Out Of 
Their God-given Share!

BUT ...

Do Not Cast Your Blessings
Before The Grunting Sow
For It Will Turn And Eat You
Whether Filled,  Satisfied 
Or Just For The Factor Called: "Wow!"

Only God Can Show You Truly
How To Share What You Have Got!
So ... Don't Give To Who Has Already
Give To He Who Has Not!


Greedy 
Constantly Grunts 
And 
Gets Gain!

Ask God 
To Reveal To You
Who Is In Silent Want
And 
Willingly
Within Your Ability
Satisfy Same!

Sheep Shepherds With Goat Parts! + Prayer



Do we Know What happens
When The Shepherds are The Sheep, and
The Sheep act like Goats?!

Do we Want to Know What happens
When Goats are Shepherds
Pompasetting and
Wearing Pretty Judas Coats?

Do we Want to Know What happens
When Goats Lead Sheep, and
Shepherds Bleat and
Even Eat Meat?

Did you Know that When a Sheep Eats Meat
He has Got Fangs and
Hangs Around with
That Wicked Satan?

Weeellllll ...

I Met a Shepherd
A Shepherd of The Sheep
Who was Not The Owner
And who Willingly Cut Truth's Corners!

He hung out with Fiends - those Creatures so Mean
And Spoke often ... it seems
Of Meat Succulent and Lean
Having been Fed on The Green
Where Cooling Waters Stream.

I Listened with Interest, and Wondered
Then I Grew Flabbergasted
As with Malice True Sheep were Pounded
And The Death-Sirens Sounded
And Lambs were Grounded
Down with The Spurious
Truth that was Curious to Boot
Giving The Shepherd The Loot
To Buy Expensive Suits
To Appear on The Air
Pretending to Give a Care
About Where
The Souls of The Poor
The Innocent
The Seeking
Would Spend Eternity
While Caviar he is Eating
And Unrighteous Riches he is Reaping!

That Shepherd Looked at My Face
Walked Around
And Stood a Pace
From My Body
And - too Jovially - Explained:

"Boy's Howdy!
Lord, Love a Duck!
Details, Details!
A Story I Tell
To the People - No Hell!
Get to the Beach
Pick up a Shell
And Listen to them Chiming Bells!"

"Details! Details!
Men Falter and Fail
I "Comfort" them and I Sail
And they go to Sinners' Jail
And Cry and Rail
At Jesus - not Me!"

"I Work for a Fee!
I Entertain for an Allowance!
My Fabled Secretary is called Florence
And we Met in Torrance
Introduced by Lawrence
The Handsome
The Dark
Who Encouraged our Romance -
I Never Stood a Chance
And now we Dance ... with The Devil!"

"There is No Turning Back
For that Would Mean Lack and
I Tell you The Fact
Lack is Something I Don't Choose to Pack!"





I Listened!
In Fact
I Wished He'd Take it Back
That He was just Giving me Flack
But, Alas, and Alack
This Steward 
Was a Coward
Who Preached Faith
But didn't Know The Lord
And his Sworn Task 
Was to Pull The Gold Cord
Of The Seeking Soul
Looking for The Word of The Lord!

His Mission was to Feed Self
To Lay Aside Treasure on The Shelf
To Live Large 
In Good Health
While Accumulating Worldly Wealth!

He Didn't Seem To Care or Try to Understand
That God Almighty
Is NOT a Man
That All That He Has Said
He Will Do
He Will Do!
... HE WILL DO! 

"Don't YOU Read your Bible?
Don't YOU Know Right from Wrong?
Don't YOU Know Jesus Christ is Coming Down?
Don't YOU Understand that The Trumpet Will Indeed Sound?
Don't YOU Believe that we ALL have a Judgment Round
And Every Human Must Give An Account However Wherever he is Found?!"

"Don't YOU Believe in God?
Don't YOU Fear God!"


He Stiffened ...

I Raised My Eyebrow.

      He Turned ...

I Tilted My Head.

            He Opened his Mouth as if to ...

I Held My Breath.

                  He Walked ... away ... breathing audibly ...

I Bowed My Head and Prayed.


Oh, Lord, Most Holy
Have Mercy upon Your People Today!
Protect us, Lord, Help us
We beseech You as we Pray!
Lord, please take us into You Care for
The Shepherds are Hirelings and
The Sheep are as Prey!
Without You, Dear Father
Your People will not well fare!
Raise Up, Lord, an Honest Steward
A Diligent Shepherd for Your Sheep
And while You are Blessing, Lord, 
Bless The Humble
The Poor, and Your Children All, The Meek.
AMEN.

I Am Blessed! + Prayer - Father, Thank You For My Blessings!




I Am Blessed!
I don't Speak of it
But If God was "Mean" to Me
Everybody would Hear about it!

I Am Blessed!
I don't Speak of it
But If My Pantry was Bare
I would be Saying: "I Always Knew That God Does Not Care!"

I Am Blessed!
I don't Speak of it
But If Illness was in my Door
Everybody would be Hearing The "Why Me?!" Furor!

Amazingly, He Who Blesses Me
Does Not Need My Speech
To Provide Me with My Blessings!
He Provides
Because His Holy Love Abides
And He is My Guardian and My Guide
And The Holy Angels are Round About, and at My Side, and
The Holy Spirit in Me Resides!

I Don't Need to Talk About My Blessings
But I - From Now On - Will
For He who Provides
Comforts Me and Stills
All My Anxiety
About The Cup I Fill
And Reminds Me
Of His Rest and Peace
And Points Me Lovingly To The Day
When I Shall Have
Sweet, Sweet, Sweet Relief!

RECEIVED TODAY FROM HOLY HANDS:
Blessings: Seen

The Ones Which Are Held In Heaven's Store!
Oh, Lord, I Am Blessed!
