PRAYER ... From Unfeigned Lips!







If Jesus Will Save Us
Satan Will Strafe Us!
If Jesus Will Chastise Us
Satan Will Praise Us!
If Jesus Will Lead Us
Satan Will Deceive Us!
Because
Jesus Christ IS Lord
AND
Satan IS Ever The Fraud!


PRAYER:



Father,
Let Not Pride Be My Passion!
Let Not Deceit By My Fashion!
Let Not Ungodly Fear
Cause Me
You Good Name To Foreswear
And
Help Me
Ever
Always
To You
In Humble Heartfelt Prayer
To Repair!

Let My Conscience
Be My Guide!
Help Me In The Holy Spirit
To Abide!
Help Me In My Jesus
To Confide
And
Let The Holy Angels
Be Ever By My Side!

Help Me, Lord
To Eat For Strength
And Not For Drunkenness!
Help Me, Lord
Not To Drink The Wine
Of Covetousness!
Help Me Not To Cultivate
A Spirit Of Compromise
And
Help Me Not To Trust
The Imaginings
Cultivated Of The Sight Of Seeing
But Woefully Blind
Eyes!

Help Me, Lord
To Hear The Still Small Voice
So That I
By Wisdom
Will Ever Make The Right Choice!
Help Me Not To Harbor
Resentment
Nor Greed
For He Who Is The Shepherd
Always
His Flock Of Sheep
Will Daily Feed!

I Pray For Grace!
I Pray For Faith!
I Pray For Heavenly Light
To See Beyond My Living Space!
Help Me To Hope
To Love
To Trust
To Honor And
To Obey
So That At The End
I Won't Be Away From You
Cast Out
In Eternal Disgrace!

I Love You, Lord!
Help Me To Love You More!
I Trust You, Lord!
Help Me To Trust You More
And
Please Keep Me
So That I Will Not Be Encouraging Satan
To Walk Through My Front Door!

Keep Me
And
Teach Me!
Correct Me
And
Direct Me
So That The Devil's Doing
Won't
Against You
Incite Me!
You Are My Father!
Make Of Me A True Child!
Help Me To Walk True To You
Knowing That Faith's Consequences
Are Safely Left
To Almighty God
You Who Is Ever Faithful And True!

Accept This My Prayer
From Unfeigned Lips
Offered In The Name Of Jesus Christ
In Whom Resides
Heaven And Earth's Kingship!
AMEN.

The Guardian And The Guide!




I Walked
As One Rudderless!
Aimless!
My Existence Pointless!

The Guardian And The Guide!

I Spoke
As One Spineless
Oft' Witless
And Most Assuredly Felt Useless!

THE GUARDIAN AND THE GUIDE!

Who's Saying That!?

The Guardian AND The Guide!

Come On! You're Kidding,  Right?!

Vanita!

Yes, Please!?

You Called Me!
You Were Praying!
You Asked If Jesus Christ Is Real!
You Stated
In Determined Tone
That You Were Feeling
All Alone
And Cried Aloud
So Grievously:
Jesus, If You Are Real
Please Guard!
Please Guide!
Oh,  Lord, Help Me!
And ... I Am Here!

Good Gracious!
Oh, How I Hoped You'd Be Real!
People Say You're Not
But I Hoped And ...!

I AM As Real As You Will Permit Me To Be To You! 

Brethren,
Here Lies The Problem
With Christian Faith And Believe!
We Have Faith!
But Not Enough!
We Believe In God
... But Wonder:

Is He Really Up To Snuff?!
Can He Really Deliver
In My Moment Of Distress?
If I Really Trust Him
Will He Truly Me Bless?!

What If I Place All My Trust In Him
AND
I Am Disappointed
Can Our Relationship Really Be?!
Does He Really Care
OR
Is My Faith And Belief
Really Me
Living On Light And Air?!

Oh,  Lord
My Heart Is In Despair!
I Can't Touch You!
I Don't Feel You!
I Don't See Your Hand Work ...

My Child,
Look Again!
Look Around!
Look Within!
You Are My Handiwork!
I Made All For My Pleasure!
I Do Not Make Broken Toys!
I Made You
To Bless You!
To Have You Share In My Joys!
Please Do Not Trust Your Feelings
For
They Lead To Fads And Fantasies!
Check The Holy Record Of My Character
And Repair To Me!
Trust Me In Your Reason
Not Your Chemically-Motivated Heart!
Let's Reason Together
For
I Have Answers
That Will Bless You
Most Wonderfully!

What I Do For You
Will Bless You
For Heaven
And,  No!
You Are Not Receiving That Fast Car
For
If I Gave You
All Your Carnal Heart's Desire
Hell's Gate To You Will Be Wide Open
Ajar!

Yes!
No!
Wait!
My Grace Is Sufficient For Thee!
Are All Answers
The Timing Of Which Is For Your Best!
Trust Me To Deliver You To Heaven
And Not Into Earthy Mansions
Which To Your Soul Are Deadly!
Earthly Comforts Tend To The Destruction Of The Soul
So Strive For The White Robe And The Pure Gold Crown!
Come Unto Me As You Labor
And I Will Make You Whole! 

Then ... You Are My Shepherd!?

Yes!
And In Me 
You Will Never Know Want
And My Ear Is Ever Available Unto You 
Until The Day You Die!

Forsaking Sin + PRAYER: Lord, I Come






When We Forsake Sin
We Have The Assurance Of The Approval Of God!
We Have No More Need
To Sorrow Or To Fret
For The God Of Heaven
Paid Too High A Price
To Let A Repentant Soul's Heart Be Out To Let!

Have No Fear Of The Devil
For He Is A Way-laying Fraud!
He Desires All To Follow Him Into Perdition
Unable Ever
To Return Home To Father God!

Let Not Circumstance Bind You!
Let Not Love Of Friends Confine You
AND
Let Not Love Of The Lights
Of A Sinful Fallen World Blind You
Out Of The Sight And Sound
Of Him Who Joyfully Created You!

Almighty God Is Faithful!
His Holy Word Is Sacrosanct!
He Accepts All Repentant Sinners
Even Those Who Believe That He Won't And Can't!




PRAYER:

Lord, I Come To You Today
Burdened With, And Sorry For My Sins
For Which Your Beloved
With His Holy Life 
Once For All Did Pay!

With Your Grace, Lord
And Unfailing Mercy
I Forsake The World
And Humbly Seek 
To Ever Hear And Obey
The Quiet Voice Of God
And Desire To Be Made
As One Repulsive
In The Sight Of The Fraud!

I Know My Way Will Be Difficult!
I Know That I'll Be Tempted 
By The Big, Bright, And Beautiful Broadway
But
Because I Take The Lord For My Shepherd
I Will Not Be Believing
The Winsome Words Of The Leopard!

Oh, Lord
Lift Me Up So That I May Lift Up
The Life Of The Lord Christ
For A Beacon In This World Full Of Darkness!
In Jesus' Worthy Name I Plead And Stand!
I Love You, Lord!
AMEN.

Be Thankful For The Living God!






If God Was A Man
AND
Could Lie
He Would Say That He Loves Us
BUT 
Not Today!
He Would Promise To Help Us
BUT 
As He Is Having
A Mental Health Day
He Is Saying Out Loud:

This Parenting Crap Doesn't Pay!

BUT ...

God Is Not Man!
He Cannot Lie!
He Loves Us Throughout Life
AND
Even In Death
Because He Loves Us Enough
To Give Us The Quiet Bed
Of The Dead
Even As He Pleads For Others
To Trust Him
AND
Not Their Deceitful Heart's Head!

Our Father
In Heaven
Who Hallows Our Days
Who Directs 
Corrects
AND
Protects Us
When We Are Mislead
Is
Faithful
Trustworthy
A Provider Par Excellence
The God With The Most For Us
When Satan Would Like To Make Toast Of Us!

Our God
Is Excellent
Honest
True
Helpful
Healing
Feeding
Calling Out To Me And To You!
He Is The God Of All Ages
And All Graces, That's True
AND
If We Will Let Him
He Will Take Us
To The Holy Home
Above The Blue!

Be Thankful
That Our Holy God
Is Not
A Hell-Activated Man!
Be Thankful
That Our God Is The God With The Hand Steady
With Truth Ever At The Ready
The God Who Is Shepherd
Leader
Guider
AND
Stay
The God Who Will Help Us
Whenever
Wherever
We
In Faith
Pray!

So ...

When You Observe
What False Gods
Make Their Adherents Do
Be Thankful
That You Serve
The God Holy 
Faithful
Eternal
Loving Wise And True!

Give Unto The God Of Heaven
Your Worship
Your Ways 
AND
Your Days
AND
Feel Yourself Rise Up To Heaven 
Singing Hallelujah 
When Jesus Christ Comes
To Start Our Glory Days!
