How Often Have We Heard Friends, Family, Acquaintances
And
Even Not-Yet-Friends
Boldly Even Arrogantly And Aggressively Say:
"I Don't Need Anybody!
I Can Make It On My Own!?!"
Were You Impressed By Or Were You Saddened For
The Proud Sayer And Lonely Bird Caught In A Storm Of Despair
But
Unable Or Unwilling To Humble Themselves Before The Lord
And
Say With Longing Heart:
"Oh Lord, Please Help Me Now!
I'm Not Just Alone But I Am So Very Lonely
And Deathly Afraid
And So Very Weak!
Please Pity Me In My Distress And Have Mercy!
Lord,
You Said To Come Boldly
With All My Burdens
My Sorrows And My Joys
And Share Them With You
Because Without You
Joys Turn Into Sorrows
But With You, Burdens Are Lifted
And Earthly Sorrows Turn Into Heavenly Joys!
Father,
Please Open My Eyes To See Your Light That
Leads To Abundantly Living And Eternal Life!
Please Grant Me A Heart Of Flesh
So That I Will Walk Obediently
And In Perfect Peace With You!
Please Help Me To Be The Friend That
I Would Want To Have For A Friend
And Help Me To Love My Neighbor As I Love Myself
According To Your Living Word!"
Beloved,
Be Careful!
No One On This Planet Walks Alone!
You, Me, We, Either Walk In Accord
And
Under The Headship Of Jesus Christ The Lord
Or
Satan By The Fallen Angels Walks Companionably With You!
Let's Examine Ourselves Right Now!
Peace!
