Faithfully Shine Brightly!

How Do You Spell Christian!?! 
COMFORTER! 

How Do You Spell Light-House!?! 
CHRISTIAN! 

Light Illuminates! 
Light Discloses! 
Light Comforts! 

Never Forget ...

Faithful Christians 
Are The True Light Of This Dying World 
Where People Genuinely Need The Living Word That 
Speaks Life 
And 
Comforts The Weary Soul 
And 
Lights The Way Home To The Father's House! 

Are You Being An Honest Light-House 
Or Are You Working For The Enemy Of Souls 
Sending ... Shining
Giving Off A Bewitching, Blighted, Light That 
Will Cause Lives To Be Ruined 
And
Even Lost For Eternity!?! 

The Light Of Truth 
Is 
Clear, Bright, White Light 
And 
Not A Disco-Ball And Psychedelic Lights 
Guaranteed To Confuse
Guaranteed To Lead One Astray! 

Jesus Christ The Righteous 
Is 
The Light Of Life: 
We Follow Him Where He Leads 
Doing What He Says 
And By So Doing
We May Point A Rabid Sinner Seeking Shelter 
To The Safe Harbor
To The Haven Of Blessed Rest! 

Shine Bright ...

Let Your Light Shine 
And 
Let The World See Jesus Christ Living In You! 

Brethren,

Dare To Light Up The Life Of Some Dear Soul 
So That They Are Blessed To Enter ... By Right
And 
Abide Forever
In The Safe Sheep Fold! 

Faithfully Shine Brightly, Beloved
Because
Someone ... By God's Grace
Is
Using Your Light To See The Path To The Forever Home
Where Eternal Peace Dwells!

Jesus' Peace

Is

Free To All!

Just Before Popular N. Convenient Had 

Savagely Knocked At Her Door!

Some People Ain't Got No Brought-Upsy ...

So As Not To Waste Your Time
I'm Telling You Up Front
Popular N. Convenient Is A Fence Jockey
A Joy Rider
A Truth Trader
A Personal-Comfort Junkie
A Man For Perfect Seasons
A Cheap Suit-Or
A Friend Of Self

Giver Of All Good Gifts,

Please Help Me

To Protect My Thoughts And Actions

In And With The Word 

So That I May Protect My Self In The World!

Help Me To Walk By Faith

And

Not By Corrupt Eye-Sight!

Lord,

I Seek Only To Do Your Bidding

To Walk On The Strait And Narrow Way

To Be A Blessing And To Be Blessed:

I Desire, Gracious Father

To Be A Spiritual Success!

My Needs Are Few

My Heart On You Is Totally Fixed

And I Plead The Blood Of My Jesus

For Help To Stand Up

To The Tar Balls Of The World

When I Choose To Believe

And Live According To Your Holy Word

And Refuse To Give This Good-Time Charley

Popular N. Convenient A Play!

What You Have For Me, Lord

I Will Wait Patiently For

And

Hear My Complaints!

I Desire To Be Blessed, My Father

So, I Shall Wait On You!

A Word To The Wise ...

Popular And Convenient

Sounded To Please Do-Right

Like Wind Batting On Her Ears!

He Was Talking Chalk!

He Was Spinning His Wheels!

He Was Wasting Her Time And His Energy

And

Dear Please Do-Right 

Being Frugal And ... Ever Polite

Firmly Said:

Thanks Kindly For Thinking Of Me

But Please Do Not Ask Again!

We Do Not Walk The Same Road

Think Of The Same Things

Speak The Same Language

Or Desire The Same Future

So I Do Not Believe That We Can Walk Together!

We Simply Do Not Agree!

However,

If You Are Interested 

In Reading The Good Book With Me

And Learning What Jesus Christ Has Done

And Is Doing For Us Who Believe In Him

And Talking About The Salvation Of Our Souls

I Will Gladly Entertain ...!

... The Glass Rattled When The Front Door Closed!

Brethren,

Nip Sin In The Bud

No Matter Who It Bothers!

Go Against The Will

And

The Way Of Lord

To Be Popular

Is Fool-Hardy

And

It Shall Always End In Sorrow!

Stand Up For Our Jesus

And

Be Gloriously Blessed

Today And Forever!

Don't Play Dead

To See What Kind Of Funeral

You Shall Receive:

You May End Up Dead

And

Sad To Say

You Shall Never, Ever, Know

Your Outcome

In That Eventuality!

Do Right ... And Live

The Holy God To Delight!

**--**--**--**--**

The Second Coming

For

The Faithful Of God And Christ

Shall Be

A Glorious Sight!

PRAYER: Shelter Us, Lord!

Father,

My Heart Is Grateful!

Grateful That The Holy God

Condescends To Hear The Prayers

Of A Mere Mortal

A Child Of The Dust

Like Me!

Lord,

I Listen And Hear

The Voices Of Those Who Long

For The Peace

The Quiet Rest

And The Treasures Of The World

Even As They Are Blessed

Of The Bounties Of The Earth

And 

Though Wearied With The Weight

Of Wanting More And More

Are Discontented To Their Very Core!

I Listen, Lord

To Those Who Are Called Poor

Many Of Whom Envy The Rich

Their Obvious Blessings

Wishing That They, Too

Could Have What The Other Has

And Not Realizing That

Having All Is Not In Or Of Itself

A True Blessing!

Father,

I Look At The Apostle Paul

And

I Have Realized Something About Myself!

Whether I Have Little Or Much

I Am Thankful

Blessed

Hopeful

Peaceful

And 

I Am At Rest!

Oh, How I Pray That My Brethren

Will Realize The Blessing

Of Peace And Rest In The Lord Christ!

Father,

Help Me

Help Us

To Not Set Our Hopes On The Things

That Pass Away

But To Place Our Hope

On The Blessed Hope

Christ In Us

Our Hope For Glory!

Lord,

You Have Made A Promise

And

In Childlike Trust

I Am Trusting You

For All My Provision!

You Have Stated In The Living Word

That

The Righteous Will Never Be Forsaken

Nor His Seed Be Out Begging For Bread -

Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread

Bless And Keep Us In Your Care

And

Shelter Us In Your Safe Fold

Where Blessed Sheep Are Led!

Lord,

Grant Us Your Grace

Favor Us With Your Rest

Bind Us Up In Your Blessing

And

Lead Us

Lord, Lead Us

Unto The Heavenly Realm

In The Day When The Righteous Dead

Will

From Sleep

Lift Up Their Heads!

Lord,

I Love You

I Bless You

I Need You!

Teach Me

Lead Me

Guide Me

Guard Me

Correct Me

Renew Me

Remake Me

Return For Me!

I Am Looking Up 

Believing!

Please, Lord

Keep Me Faithful

And

Let No One Kill My Hope Tree

But

Cause It To Bear Fruit

Precious Fruit

Suitable

For The Heavenly Table

Of My Glorious King!

Grant Me Faithful Endurance

For

The Footrace To See The King!

In Jesus' Holy Name, I Plead!

Let Heavenly Love Abide In Me!

Haste The Day, Lord!

Come Soon

And With Speed!

AMEN.

Gratitude Is A Grace!

Happiness Does Not Come From More
AND
Sorrow Does Not Come With Less!
Happiness Is Found In Jesus Christ The Lord
AND
This Is A Realization
That The Human Soul Must Confess!

More Is A Load
That Greedy Men Carry!
Sorrow Is A Load
That The Longing Soul Carries
AND
Both May Be Removed
IF
We Will ALL To The Lord
AND
Get Out From Under
The Canopy Of The Fraud!

PRAYER:

Lord God Almighty

Thou Holy One True

I Am Thankful For My Little Bit

For It Comes From You!

Let Me Not Envy

The Man That Has Much

For That Man's Much

Often Makes His Heart Clutch

With Worry

With Sorrow

With Necessity Not Needed

Because

He, Being His Own God

Has Not Your Eternal Word Heeded!

I Thank You, Lord

For Shelter

For Food

For Clothing

For Rest

And

I Surely Do Thank You For Christ Jesus

In Whose Heart I Am Blessed!

Grant Me The Grace

That Gratitude Brings

So That In The Great Day Coming

I Will My Benefactor's Praises

With All The Blessed Saints

Joyfully

Gratefully Sing!
I Love You, Lord
And
In Jesus Christ's Holy Name, I Plead!

AMEN.
