Do Not Act Impulsively!








How Often Have We Heard Someone Say: 
"I Lost My Head!" 
After Acting Presumptuously 
And
In Haste!?! 

Oh, How Satan ... The Bounty-Hunter 
Loves To Hear Those Words Uttered 
In The Leisurely Activity Called Sorrowful Repentance! 
 
Beloved, 

A Scornful Dog Eats Dirty Pudding 
And 
The Impulsive, Hasty To Be Angry Person 
Gets To Slowly, Sorrowfully, Eat 
The Usually Unpalatable Patty Of 
Remorse And Regret 
If 
They Are Wise Unto The Saving Of Their Own Soul! 

We Are Imbued By Our Maker-Savior With 
The Ability To Think Clearly 
And 
Reason Wisely! 

Unfortunately, Many Of Us Choose To Act Irrationally
Impulsively ... Foolishly
Giving In To Sinful-Self While Forgetting That 
All Acts Have Outcomes
Many Of Which Are Unintended
Most Of Which Can Never Be Corrected! 

Please Don't Put Your Brain In Park 
While Your Mouth, Hands, And Feet Are In Motion! 

Let Us Remember What We Were Taught In Primary School 
When Learning To Cross The Street: 

Look Right! 
Look Left! 
And 
Look Right Again
And
Then Cross 
If
The Way Is Clear! 

Weigh The Pros! 
Weigh The Con

And

Remember That Impulsiveness 
Never Lays Out The Warm, Comfortable
Pretty Bed Of Peace And Quiet! 

Think Twice ... Even Thrice
Before You Act, Act Up, Or Act Out! 

Please Practice Self-Control: 
It Is One Of The Choice Fruits Of The Holy Spirit! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + CROWWWWW + PRAYER: Bless Us To Bless Others, Father!








... I'm Sorry That I'm Late!
What's He Been Saying In The Preamble!?!

Search Me! 
I Don't Know And I Don't Care!

Wow! That's Some Attitude!
Who Squeezed Your Lemon!?!

His Pontificating Nibs, Himself
Harold Shamus Pickering
Our Preacher For Today!
I'm So Sick Of Him!

That's Not Like You, Terry!
What's Really Going On!?!

Ohhhh!
I'm Sorry For Being Grouchy And Unkind, Merlita!
It's Just That He Recently Caught Me
Having A Really Bad Day
And His Chastisement 
Was Not Well Appreciated By Me!

Oh, Dear!
Do You Want To Talk About It!?!

Not Really ... But I Need To!

Come On! Let's Go Outside!
We Still Have A Few More Minutes To Wait!
We'll Have Time To Talk Privately!

I Did Something Really Stupid 
And He, Rightfully, Upbraided Me
But ... Me Being Prideful
And In The Known Wrong
Didn't Take Kindly To The Real Kindness In His Rebuke! 

Oh, Dear!
But You Do Know That He Really Cares For You
And
That He Seriously Takes To Heart
His Position As The Lord's Underling-Shepherd
In Caring For All The Members
Of Our Little Flock, Don't You!?!

Yes, Yes, Yes! I Do!
Shame ... Remorse ... Anger ... Fear
All Got The Better Of Me
When He Quoted Me Jude 1:24-25!






Merciful Powers!
I Don't Even Want To Know What It Is That You Did
But
You Must Know, Terry, That 
Only Jesus Christ Saves 
And 
Only Those Who CROWWWWW
Aka Confess, Repent, Obey
And 
Wisely Walk, Work, Watch 
And 
Wait Upon Him
- Clothed In The Fire-Proof Garment Of His Righteousness - 
Will Stand Safely In The Light Of His Glorious Presence! 

May I Speak Plainly!?!

Yes, Aimee, You May!

The Holy Spirit Is Still Working With You!
You Attend Church Faithfully
And
You Talk A Good Game
But
Are You Allowing Yourself To Be Washed In The Blood!?!

When Are You Going To Forsake The World!?!

When Are You Going To Let Go Of Self!?!

We Sin By Thought, Word And Deed ... Everyday!
Are You Confessing 
And 
Repenting Of Your Known Sins!?!
You Claim To Be Walking With The Lord
But
Are You Walking In Obedience!?! 
By Your Own Admission
You Know That You Have Been Acting Foolishly
But
I Am Boldly Asking You
When Are You Going To Finally Be Wise About
Your Soul's Purchased Salvation!?!
When Are You Going To Stop Living 
By Your Carnal, Lying, Deceitful, Eyesight!?!

When Are You Going To Accept That 
The Living God Reveals Himself To
And
Restores, Heals And Helps Those 
Who Choose To Trust Him Wholly!?!
When Are You Going To Start Using Your Faith
For Something That Truly Will Profit You!?!

When I Think Of You
I Remember The Apostle Peter
When Jesus Said To Him:

"... And When Thou Art Converted
Help The Brethren!"

You Would Be A Real Blessing To The Kingdom Of Light
If 
You Will Let The Lord Lead You!

Terry ... Beloved
Please Reach For The Hand Which Saves
And 
Seals
And 
You Will Be Blessed To Be Blessed Forever 
When Jesus Christ Comes Again! 

Please, I Beseech You
Stop Running
And
Act Now
And
You Shall Have The Peace 
For Which We Both Know That You Are Seeking ...!

... You Mean Desperately Seeking!

Very Well!
I Accept Your Word!

I'm So Very Tired Of Running From Almighty God!
I Need That Perfect Peace That Jesus Christ Promises!
I Desire To Have The Lord Be Pleased With Me!

Hallelujah To The Lamb!
You Don't Know How Long
I Have Wanted To Hear You Say That!

Well, My Friend!
Today Is Your Luck- ... Uh, Blessed Day!
I Am Surrendering My Will To The Lord!
I Am Going To Walk ... Wisely
In His Glorious Way!

Praise The Lord For Present Grace!

Bless The Lord For Coming Glory!


PRAYER:

Father,
Please Be With Your Children This Night
And
Bless Us To Ever Walk Wisely
In Your Eyes
So That We Will Always Defeat
The Lying Works
Of
Our Adversary, The Devil!

Be With Each And Every One Of Us
Who Pray 
And
Who Look With Longing
For The Coming Great Day!

Bless Us To Bless Others!
Teach Us To Teach Others!
Guide Us To Guide Others!
Love Us To Love Others
And
Use Us So That We Will Not Use Others!
Please Pour Out Of Your Sweet Spirit
Upon Our Flesh
And
Bless Us To Willingly Do Your Bidding!

Guard Us!
Guide Us!
Keep Us!
Feed Us
And
Lead Us Gently Home
For It Is In Jesus Christ's Holy Name
That We Pray And Plead!
Please Come For Us Soon!
We Love You And Need You!
Have Mercy!
AMEN!
