BE AT PEACE: Unfailing Truth Lights The Day!

Brethren,

Isn't It About Time That
You Cast Your Every Care On The King!?!
Isn't It About Time For Us 
To Engagingly Sit 
And
Be Enraptured With And By The Lord!?!

Jesus Christ ... The Way Maker
The Only One Righteous
Cares For 
And 
Feels Everything That Concerns Us
And
We Would All Do Well 
To Take A Page Out Of The Book
Belonging To Lazarus And Martha's Sister, Mary
Who Choose The Best Portion
- To Learn About Jesus Christ The Lord -
Which Portion Jesus Said That 
He Would Not Take Away From Her!

Worry Won't Make You Tall
And
Being Anxious Won't Change The Color Of Your Hair
But
Worry And Anxiety Will Most Assuredly
Cause You To Cease From Abundant Living
Sooner Than Any Disease That Afflicts Us!

Worry And Anxiety

- Which The Lord Asks Not To Indulge -

 Illustrates A Lack Of Faith

Which Is Doubt!

Doubting The Lord Christ Is Sin!

Use The Gift Of Faith

Which You Are Daily Given!

If We Never Needed The Lord Before
We Starkly See That We Need Him Today
And 
In All Facets Of Our Lives! 

Blessedly
The Only One That We Need
- Who Provides For Our Every Need -
In All Stages And Phases Of Life
Says: 

"Come ... And ... Find!

Take ... Learn ... And Rest!" 

Because 
He Who Says The Word 
Has The Power To Provide 
And 
The Provision To Satisfy 
Believer And Unbeliever Alike! 

We Who Choose To Believe The Living Word 
Are Doubly Blessed: 
We Know That He Who Promises Will Deliver 
And 
From Experience
We Can Hold Out Our Hands To Receive "The Lil' Berry" 
The Blessing For The Day That His Ravens ... His Servants
Will Surely Deliver! 

We Wait On The Lord Without Anxiety 
Because 
We Rest In His Unfailing Truth 
And 
Undeniable Grace! 

The Grace Of God

Is More Than Enough:

Because

It Is Sufficient For Us!

Brethren, Beloved

Believe
Trust And Obey The Call
And 
Rest In Your Blessing! 
Jesus Christ ... Our Soon-Returning King
He That Is The Way, The Truth, The Light
And
The Life Of Every Man, Woman And Child
Sacrificially, Infinitely, Personally, Loves You!
I Know That He Loves Me, Too!

Truth Lights The Day!

Be At Peace: Believe The Word

And

Persistently, Insistently, Pray!

HAPPY SABBATH + The Tetra Pac Lego God + PRAYER: Father, Forgive Me!

I Made An Amazing Discovery!
I Had Put My God 
In Cut-To-Fit Pieces 
In A Foil-Lined Box
Preserving Him
For Those Occasions 
When
He Would Save Me From 
A Real Or Imagined Attack!

My Mind Was Broad
AND
I Had "Created" A 
Specialized
Elite
Proficient 
God Force!

-- I Get Chills When I Think Of 
The Myriad Gods That
I Had Fashioned For Myself! --

I Had Fashioned:

A Special-Occasion God!
An Emergency God!
An "I Need A Favor!" God!
A Ready-To-Listen To My Complaints God!
A Sounding-Board God!
A Pat-Me-On-My-Back God!
A Save-Me-From-My-Self God!
A God-To-Be-Ignored-As-Convenient God!
A "Pity Me - I'm Your Child!" God!
And On and On!

Do You Get The Picture?!

This Was Idolatry!!

Well, It Finally Dawned On Me
That All Of These 
Different Occasion Gods' Requirements
- Per My Self -
Were Really Wearing Me Down To A Nubbin!

There Had To Be A Better Way!
There Had To Be A Better Way To Pray!

There Had To Be A Better God!

There Had To Be A Better God Who Has More Say!

What I Needed 
More Than Anything 
Was 
The All-Seeing
The All-Knowing
The Ever-Present
Almighty
True
Living
Eternal
Holy
GOD!!

I Proceeded To Have Me A Think
AND ... Lo!
AND ... Behold!

Did Not God Just Say:
"Call On Me 
AND 
I Will ...!"

SHOW YOU

The Great
The Mighty (Marvelous)
What You ( I and Eye!? ) Don't Know!

He Did Not Say He Will "Snow" Me!

PRAYER:

Father,  I Owe You An Apology

For Believing In A False Theology

Which Caused Me

To Indulge In Great Folly

Forgetting That You Are The God Holy!

Father,  I Take The Position Today

That The World And Its Deceits

I Will No Longer Attention Pay!

I Will Recombine You

To Your Rightful Estate

AND

I Will Cast My Lot On You

AND

You Will Then Be Responsible For My Fate!

Forgive Me,  Father

For Letting My Lack of Faith

My Lack of Understanding

My Unwillingness To Believe
AND

My Seeming Inability To Trust

Make You Less Than You Are To Me!

Father, 
You Are My God

AND

Come What May

In You  - The Holy God

I Will Wholly Trust!

I Love You,  Lord!

AMEN.
