DON'T BE ASHAMED: Open Your Heart To Almighty God!







Our Hope ... A Living And Lively Hope
Is 
In The Lord Of Life ... The King Of Glory
And
No Child Following After The Lord Jesus Christ 
Should Be Unwilling, Afraid, Or Ashamed 
To Go Before Our Heavenly Father 
And 
In Humility Say:

"I'm Sorry! 
I Need You!
Help Me!
Forgive Me!
Guide Me!
Lead Me!
Feed Me!
Correct Me!
Protect Me!
Draw Me Nearer!" 

Truly Loved And Divinely Blessed
We Should Be Pleased To Say:

"Father, I Trust You: 
Help Me To Trust You More!
 
I Need You: 
Help Me To Daily See My Need! 

I Love You: 
Help Me To Daily Love You More!
 
Thank You For Your Grace: 
Help Me To Daily Grow In Grace!
 
I Have Sinned: 
Please Help Me To Humbly Confess
And
Repent Of My Sin 
And
 By The Working Of The Sweet Holy Spirit That 
Leads Me Into All Truth
Help Me Not To Sin 
Against Your Holiness Again! 

I Am Weak: 
Help Me To Be Strong In You, My Lord And My God!
 
I Desire To Reach The Heavenly Home Safely: 
Please Lead Me Gently Home!
 
Help Me To Honor, Worship And Obey You Always!
 
Help Me To Walk In The Ways Of Righteousness 
And
Not Turn Again To Fables!
 
Help Me To Tell The Good News 
Until Jesus Christ Comes 
Or Until My Life On Earth Is Through!
 
My Life Is Yours: 
Keep Me Safe By Thy Dear Side 
As I In You Completely Confide!" 

Brethren, Beloved

Choose To Hold Nothing Back!
Dare To ... With The Confidence Of Unfailing Faith
Open Your Hungering Heart To Almighty God
To Jesus Christ The Lord
Our Soon-Returning Kind King! 

Peace Be Upon You!

Putrid Pride Perverts Good Character!







Are You Like The Pharisees Who Spoke And Fasted With Pride 
Or
Are You Like Christ Jesus Who Spoke Peace 
And 
Ate His Food With Humility
Willingly Choosing To Be With The Sinners Who Saw 
And 
Expressed Their Personal Need Of 
Their Personal Savior!?! 

Lest We Forget
The Lord Asks Us To Humble Ourselves 
Under His Mighty Hand 
And
In His Own Time He Will Lift Us Up! 

Pride ... Putrid Pride ...  Perverts Good Character
And 
We Ought To Constantly Remember That 
It Was Putrid Pride That 
Caused Satan's Fall From Saving Grace! 
We Should Never Forget That It Is False Pride That 
Causes Us To Elevate Our Sinful Self 
Before We Spectacularly Fall 
And 
Our Shame Is Exposed! 

We Have Nothing About Which To Practice Pride 
Save Jesus Christ The Lord ... Our Lord
So Let Us Be Wise And Consider, Understand
And 
Remember That 
The Only Thing That We Take From This World 
Is 
Our Name ... Our Character 
Good, Bad, Ugly Or Indifferent! 

Beloved, 

The Only Character That Will Enter Heaven 
Is 
The One That Is Totally Like Christ's 
So, Please, I Beseech Us All
By The Grace Of God 
And 
With An Obedient, Willing Spirit
Get Rid Of The Unholy Habits 
And 
Ugly, Offensive, Prideful Attitudes: 
Jesus Christ Cleans And Saves! 


Powerfully Pursue Peace!

POTHOLES ... On The High Way Of Truth!

There Are Potholes On The High Way
The High Way Of Truth
And
For Those With The Wherewithal
There Are Preferential Detours
So That Their Cherished Wheels Do Not Come Loose!

On The High Way Of Truth
There Are Travelers Proud And Vain
And 
There Are Also Travellers
Who Humbly, Joyfully, Proclaim 
The Coming Great King's Fame!

What Many Travelers Do Not Realize
Is 
That The Potholes Are There For
Their Own Soul's Preservation
Because
The Drop Into The Pothole
Snaps One Out Of Complacency
Awakens One From Sleep
Causes One To Question Their Idea Of Reality
Rattles One's Teeth Against Temptation
Tears Off The Wheels Of 
The Chariot Going Confidently The Wrong Way
Blows Out The Air Of The Proudly Overfilled Wheel Of 
The One Too Proud To Pray
And
Bends The Chassis Of The One Too Rich To Be Humble
And
Too Arrogant To Pay Attention
To The Small Thing Big Called Truth 
Aka The Lord's Delight
Whether It Is Day Or Night!

Brethren, Beloved
Do Not Despise The Truth!
Do Not Despise The Challenges 
On The Way Of Life
And
Do Not The Call To Salvation Refuse!

Truth Was!
Truth Is!
Truth Always Shall Be
And
All Those Willing And Obedient
To Travel The Way Godly
Shall Have Truth For A Garment
A Shield
A Sword
A Helmet
A Girdle
And
Shoes Indestructible
Good
Assuring Entrance
Into The Eternal City
The New Jerusalem
The City Of God
The City Of Purest Gold!


Keep Truth In Your Inward Parts!
On Truth Take A Strangle Hold!
Speak Truth Always
And
Be Uncompromising!
Be Anchored-In-Christ Bold!

PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I Want To Live In Peace With You!

Heavenly Father,
Thank You For My Many Blessings!
With Grateful Heart And Willing Spirit
I Seek Your Face
And
Of Blessings
I Seek Another!

Please Grant Unto Me Spiritual Ears
To Hear
So That I May Heed Your Spirit's Call
So That My Carnal Eyes
Presumptuous
Vain
Willful
Disobedient
Will Not Be Able To Encourage Me To Walk
On Sinful Flesh's Downward Gradient!


I Need No Encouragement To Look Down!
Sinful Self Makes That All Too Easy To Do!
So
I Am Calling, Lord
Unto You
To Help Me To Look Up
And
To Change My Life's Perspective
So That I No Longer Walk In Vanity
But
Choose Boldly
To Accept Dear Mercy
And
Free Grace
And
Paid Pardon
And
Available Salvation
So That I May Forever
Live In Peace
Perfect Peace
In Paradise With You!

I Love You, Lord!
Please Have Mercy And Bless
For
I Ask All In The Great Name
Of
Jesus Christ The Righteous
My Savior, Lord And God!
AMEN!

Two Kisses!!

Two People
Kissed Christ Jesus
AND
Both
Kissed Him With Great Intent!

Forgiven Mary Of Bethany
Kissed Her Known Savior
BUT
Unyielding Judas Iscariot
Kissed Just Jesus
Just To Get What He Would Never See Spent!

Mary Used Her Pennies
To Purchase That
With Which She Would Anoint 
He Who Alone Will Save Her Longing Soul!

Judas Iscariot
Willingly Sold Gold
To Get Silver
BUT
Received Dirt
Because His Unrenewed Heart
Was Devilishly Cold!

Two Humans Close To Jesus  ...

One Bowed Down In Loving Worship
AND
In The Great Day Will Be Raised Up
To See God's Glory
While That Other
- Lifted Up In Pride -
Looking Upward
- Wanting Power By Which The World To Rule -
Shall
Will Surely
In The Day Of Appointment
Forever Die
Because
He Chose The Wiles Of The Devil
For His Life's Intimately Personal Guide!

Dear Brother!
Dear Sister!
I Appeal To You!
Please Do Not Permit Satan To Manipulate You
With Promises Of Earthly Gain
For Disobedient Living
In A Soul Sin-Stained
AND
A Nose Ring
With Known Evil As The Connecting Chain!

Please Know That ...

Little With Contentment
Is Of Great Gain
When The Creator Of The World
Is Holding Your Leading Rein!

Be Contented
With Whatever The Good Lord Gives You
AND
Be Satisfied
Wherever The Good Lord Sends You
AND
Places You To Serve Him By And In Faith
AND
Do Not Pretend To Yourself
That You Are Much More
Than What The Omniscient God Made You!

Please Do Yourself A Grand Favor And ...

Do Not Look To See What Others Have!
Do Not Rush To Rise High
Only To Be Cast Down
By Stern Rebuke
AND
Being Enormously Prideful
In Retaliation
Doing That That Is Egregiously Bad!

Do Not Think That The Omnipotent God
Is Not Omnipresent
AND
Is Caught At Unawares
When You Indulge In Sordid Affairs!

AND
Do Not Think That Your Machinations
Will
The Sovereign Will Of The Eternal God 
Change!

A Small Word To The Wise ...

Disobedience And Willful Ways
Build The Holding Cage
Where The Unrepentant Wayward Soul 
Awaiting Damnation
Sojourns

BUT

Faithful Obedience And A Willing Spirit
Builds
- By The Lord Jesus -
A Mansion
The Likes Of Which 
Only Divinity Can Fashion!


How Do YOU Stand?!

Two Kisses Were Proffered!
One Kiss Worshipped!
One Kiss Damned!
Which One Are YOU Giving To
The Holy Son Of God
The Returning Savior Of Repentant Man?!
