Are Children Of One Father! Born Of Different Mommies, There Is No Doubt!
They Are Loved, Appreciated
Blessed ... You Can Be Sure
And
They Each Must Make Their Own Personal Decision
To ... Or No To
Walk Through The Pearl Gate
Through Heaven's Front Door!
In The Way Station Called Earth
In The Attitude Called Life
In The Method Called Living
They Each Face The Mortal Strife:
Will They Walk Wise Unto Salvation!?!
Will They Indulge The Folly Of Sin!?!
Will They Listen To The Voice Of The Sweet Spirit
Or
Will They Run With The Rabid Sinner, Satan And Be Worldly
Going Wild-Goating!?!
Who Will Order Their Steps!?!
Who Will Point Them To Eternal Life!?!
Who Will Say:
This Is The Glorious Way:
Walk Ye In It!?!
Who Will Do The Good And The Right
And
Turn Them Away From The Life That Does The Purchased Soul Blight!?!
Who Will Stand Up For These Dear Ones!
Who Will Speak Truth To Them In Righteousness!?! Free Will And Free Choice ... Will They Go Against The World's Ways

Choose To Cooperate With Jesus Christ The Lord!?!
Jesus Christ's Gifts Bless And Save ... Hope Is A Seed That Does Eternal Spring!
Faith Is The Gift That Gives As Long As The Soul Is Living!
Truth Is The Blessing That No One Knows Its Depth, Width Nor Height!
Trust Is The Conveyance Ridden
That Prevents One From Christ From Back-Sliding!
Forgiveness Is The Cloak That Is Buttoned On To Our Bodies By Belief!
Mercy And Grace Are Eternal Shoes On The Feet Of The One Who Is Climbing Jacob's Ladder To The Father's House Where Jesus Christ Have Prepared For Him A Place!
Endurance Is Cup, Bowl, Basket That Holds The Bread And Water Of Life In Working Faith's Two Hands!
And

The Age-Old Adage "Honesty Is The Best Policy!" ISQuite Frankly A Straight-up Lie!!
Man, From The Looks Of You You Drank What You Should Have Anointed Yourself With Because It Is Running Out Your Mouth As Bare Ignorance!
Not So Fast, Slow-Poke! He Is Right!
YOU Have Obviously Had Some Of HIS Libation!
Not At All! Just Give Us A Hearing!
Simply Put
Honesty
ISYes! ANDNo!
Policy Simply Put IS Maybe Yes! Maybe No! AND Maybe So! Probably! Likely! Possibility! To Our Understanding! By Reason Of ...! Our Interpretation Is ...! As A Matter Of Convenience! Etc. Etc. Etc.
Policy Statements Are Full Of Loop-Holes
Available Only To The Issuer
And Always Leave Room ...!
... For "Improvement!"
... For Escape!
Honesty Do Not Contain Wiggle Room!
Honesty As A Policy Has No Wings Because Policy Lacks Honesty AND Has Hidden Arrows That Sting!
If Your Honesty Needs A Policy To Give Your Words Strength THEN You, My Brother My Sister Will See Almighty God As Your Judge At Length!
Policy Is All About Craft Expediency! Convenience!
Honesty Is Not About Convenience! Honesty Is Not A Convenience!
Honesty - Truth - IS!
So ...
What Do We Really Know?!
We Know That Any "Honest Policy" That Changes
According To Time Circumstance Personnel Administration Prevailing Conditions Is A Shifting-Sand Lie!
Honesty Aka Truth Needs No Color Nor Spin AND Policy Masquerading As Honesty Will Never Get For One The Everlasting Win!
Remember The Word Of God!
This Is An Honest - Truthful - Statement:
The Lord: The Same Yesterday
Today
AND
Forever!
You Should Check Out The Ten Commandments ...!
... And The Beatitudes! John 3:16 1 John 1:9 Psalm 23 Psalm 46 Isaiah 55:6-7
And, Then ...
For An "Honest" Comparison Take A Look At, Oh I Don't Know ...
... A Policy Of Insurance! A Credit Card Agreement The Tax Code Your Refrigerator Warranty Or ...
... The Patient Information Pamphlet
Distributed With Medicine
When The Pharmacist "Forgets" To Remove It!
Oh, Dear ...!
When You Put It That Way ... I ... I!
Look At It Like This:
Honesty AND Policy
Can Never - Will Never -
Cooperate So
By Careful Consideration With Godly Fear AND With Jesus Christ As Your Example
I Desire To Write A Story Paragraph By Paragraph With Each Paragraph Being
A King James Bible Text!
I Request That Each One Of Us Add
A Text Or Two Or Three Or Four Of Our Personal Choosing AND
Send It On To Other Brethren Unmindful Not Knowing - By The Addition - How The Story Will End!
Each One Of Us Has A Different Life Experience! Each One Of Us Has Texts That Are Close AND Decidedly Personal To Our Hearts BUT I Request That When You Add A Known Text That You Also Add A Text Not Yet Memorized AND
By So Doing Also Learn Something New Along The Way! Let The Story - Fluid -
Disclose The Love Of God That Can Never From Us Depart!
STORY BOARD ...

KJV Psalms 1 1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
KJV Job 19 25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: 26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: 27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
KJV Psalms 2 1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
KJV Psalms 3 1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me. 2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God.

Selah. 5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
KJV Psalms 2 10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. 11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. 12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
KJV Psalms 23 1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Brethren,
The Story Can Never Be Written Incorrectly! The Effort Is Yours! The Conclusive Results Are The Lord's!
Please Pray
AND
Pass The Word Along For Short Or Long The Word Of The Living God Is Strong AND Neither Principalities Nor Powers Can Ever It Grind Down!
I Have A Friend Who Is My Companion! I Have For A Champion He Who Is My God! I Have The Savior Who Is My Redeemer AND The Giver Of My Life Is My Rock Against My Accuser The Foul-Minded Fraud!
IF
We, As Honest Men Would Daily Think Upon The Divine Sacrifice We Would Not Walk Around Behaving Like Angry Bloodsucking Hog Lice!
We Would Say
- Without Fear Of Contradiction -
With All Power And Might That We Are Legitimate Children Of The Great King BUT Sorry To Say
It Is Oft Quite Plain That We Do Not Know
The One Of Whom We Are Speaking!
I, Myself IF
I Am Honest
This Day Must Utter:
Guilty ... As Charged!
For I, Too Have Often Forgotten My New Pedigree AND Have Gladly Permitted The Old Man To Triumphantly Lead
AND
Squeeze Me
Making Feel Yesterday's Shed Load!
I Agree With You For I Am Guilty Of That, Too But What Do You Offer Up For A Solution?!
In All Honesty
I Say That We Could All Do
With A Daily Dose Of
I Am Thine, Oh, Lord!
And A Daily Dose Of Confess And Repent BUT All Done Without It Being A Hair Shirt AND
Walking About Looking Grieved AND
Being Morose!
Really?! Why Do You Say That!
If You Are Happy
For Free Salvation
Praise The Lord!
Hallelujah!
If You Have Accepted
The Gift
Walk About In The Wrapping!
Thank You, Jesus!
The Living Word Says ...!
The Living Word Says That All Men Sin AND All Men Sin By Thought By Word By Deed AND Paul The Apostle Said That He - A Totally Surrendered Soldier For Christ - Died Daily For He Wanted Nothing Between His Soul AND His Savior! He Lived For His Lord AND Everything Else Was ... Dung!
I Hear That!
Can You Imagine A Man Like That Who Had Met The Savior AND Had Committed His Life Saying:
The Thing I Should Do I Don't And The Thing I Shouldn't Do I Do?!
And Exclaiming:
Oh, Wretched Man That I Am!
Believe You Me I Can Totally Relate!
I Am Right There With You!
You Know There Was Much - And Still Is - In The Idea Of The Daily Sacrifice BUT
Without All The Blood AND
The Burnings!
Type Met Antitype In The Ultimate Sacrifice
On The Cruel Cross Which Sacrifice Pays For Our Confession And Repentance Giving Us The Free Offer Of Salvation!
I Don't Understand ...!
Okay! Would You Crucify Christ Afresh?!
Whaaat?! What For?! No!
Who Would Do Such A Thing?!
You!
Me?!
Me! You?!Yes ... Us!
But, How?!
You Are Forgetting Already! By Thought! By Word! By Deed!
I Had In My Heart A Little Jesus AND I Had In My Heart A Lot Of My Self! There Was A Battling Raging AND Each Desired The Other To Take A Knee On The Back Shelf! I Often Talked A Walk I Was Not Walking! I Often Walked A Talk About Which I Was Uncomfortable To Enthusiastically Speak AND This Was Making My Life Uncomfortable AND I Really Needed Heavenly Relief!
PRAYER: Lord,
I Can Not Live Like This Any Longer!
Please, Do Something For Me!
Open My Eyes
My Ears
My Heart
My Head
Grant Me Understanding!
Lord, God Almighty
Please Grant Me Some Relief!
I Did Not Hear A Stern Voice Speaking! I Did Not Even Hear A Soft Voice Whispering Inside My Head BUT With The Passage Of Time I Noticed That Past Pleasures Seemed Asinine AND I Was More Toward Faithfulness To God's Ways Steadfastly Inclined! Nonsense Made No Sense! Defiance Was No Defense! Recalcitrance Made Me Seem Dense AND I Was Studiously Eager To Get Off The Waffler's Shaking Fence! I No Longer Found Pleasure In Waywardness! I No Longer Found Pleasure In Walking The Contrarian Way! I No Longer Found Pleasure In Arguing For Both Satan And God AND Finally Recognized Realized That I Did Not At All Like Trying Against God To Be In The Right! Prayer Changed Things! I No Longer Wanted With Jesus Christ A Mere Fling! I Wanted A Commitment! I Wanted To Belong! I Wanted To Be With The Lover Of My Soul AND I Wanted The Relationship To Be Permanently Enduringly Forever Long! I Wanted Us! I Wanted In Him To Never Grow Old!
PRAYER: Lord,
I Love You!
You See
Know
My Heart
Better Than I Do!
Please, Won't You Take Me In Your Loving Hand
And
Be To Me My All And All?
When I Ignore You
I Feel Scattered
And Bereft!
Please, Hold Me
Enfold Me
Keep Me Close
To That Sacrificial Heart
In Your Spear-Pierced Side That Sin Cleft!
Forgive Me
For My Myriad Follies!
Forgive Me
For Giving In To My Lying Wants Adjudged To Be My Needs
But Was Indeed My Gross Greed!
Forgive Me
For Doubting Your Living Holy Word!
Forgive Me
For From You Looking Away!
Forgive Me
For Giving Place To The Devil!
I Am Sorry, Lord!
Forgive Me!
I Beseech You, Please
Is My Penitent Heart's Humble Pray!
From This Moment On
Help Me
In You
To Be Strong!
Give Unto Me Music
For My Satisfied-With-Jesus Song
So That
In The Day A-coming
I May Joyously Sing
With The Redeemed
In The Overcomer's Glorying Throng!
Thank You, Lord
For Hearing And Answering My Prayer
Presented In The Name Of My Lord
Jesus Christ The Righteous In Whose Faith I Live And Breathe!
