No One On This Planet Walks Alone!

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!

Trust The Living Word: Put Satan On Trial!

Whether We Choose To Believe It Or Not

We Have An Unreliable Narrator In The Person Of Satan

The Devil

The Dragon

The Piercing Serpent Aka The God-Fraud! 

Beloved, 

Be Wise ... For Your Own Self! 

Satan Tells All Willing To Hear Him 

That The Living God Is Unfair

That There Is No Victory Over Sin

That The Lord Will Save All Human Beings

That Dead People Watch Over And Talk To The Living

That Sunday Is Sacred

That Man Is ImmortalThat There Is No Devil And No Hell

And 

That There Is No Need To Grow In Grace 

Because 

We Will Be Sinners Until The Day We Physically Die

And 

That A "Little Creature" Called A Soul 

Jumps Out Of The Then-Dead Body 

And 

Floats Up To Heaven 

To Direct Almighty God's Traffic Up There 

For The Benefit Of The Gullible Down Here! 

Let's Get Real! 

Lucifer Nka Satan Got Thrown Out Of Heaven, For Cause

So He Has A Hidden Agenda! 

The Lord Christ 

Is 

In Heaven 

In The Most Holy Place Of The Heavenly Sanctuary

Interceding For His People

And 

His Plan Of Salvation For Us 

Is 

Open And On Public Display

And 

Is Actively Working! 

Who Are You Going To Believe!?! 

Dear Ones, 

Discovery 

Is 

Always Big Doings In Every Court Case! 

Dare To Put Satan On Trial 

Via The Living Word Of God Your Creator 

And 

See Whose Words And Works Are Reliable Aka Trustworthy! 

The Truth ... Jesus Christ The Lord ... Was Executed 

And 

Still Lives! 

Do The Math! 

Peace!

Before The Merchants Monetized Motherhood!

Before The Merchants Monetized Motherhood 

For One Day Of The Year

The Good Lord In His Wisdom 

Commanded That Mothers Be Honored, Well, Every Day! 

There Is A Blessing That 

Attends Those Who Keep The Commandment 

And

Obviously, To The Disobedient, A Curse

And 

So I Beseech Us, Beloved

Keep Operating To Receive The Good Lord's Blessing 

So That There Will Be No Curse In Your Life's Purse! 

There Are Those Amongst Us 

Who Have Recently Laid Their Dear Mothers To Rest 

And 

I Beseech Us Who Still Have Our Mothers Here 

To Hug Them Closer

And 

Whisper Honest Words Of Love In Their Ears! 

Flowers, Chocolates, And Perfumes Last A Little While 

And 

Are For Public Consumption 

But 

Kind Words, Thoughtful Deeds

And 

Loving Care Make Marks That Last The Moment

The Minute, The Hour, Day, Week, Month, And Year

And 

Are Logged In The Books Of Heaven 

Which No Careless Finger May Erase! 

Mothers

Mothers In Israel

Adoptive Mothers

And 

Mothers Just Because

The Lord Jesus Cemented Your High Status

When In His Dying Agonies

He Gave The Care Of His Beloved Mother, Mary

To His Beloved Disciple John! 

Mothers, 

Let's Continue Our Loving Service For The Lord! 

Children, 

Let's Love On Our Mothers Every Moment Of Every Day! 

There Is Nothing Higher Than 

The Eternal God's Holy Law! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Thine Will Be Done In Me, Dear Lord!

If Nowhere Is Become Now Here 

And 

Something Is Become Some Thing

Should Not You And I Seek After Our Holy God 

Who Sees And Knows All Things

And 

Is In And Above All Things!?! 

Beloved, 

We Know That We All Have Our Priorities Skewed 

And That 

The Height Of Our Values Is Really Bare Basement! 

Should Not We Seek After Our God Alive 

Who, Believed, Trusted, Honored, Worshipped

And 

Obeyed

Is 

Able To Provide For And Protect Us

Direct And Correct Us

And 

Refocus Our Thoughts When The Good Parts 

We, Short-Sighted, Decidedly Neglect!?! 

Jesus Christ The Lord

 He Who Made Blind Eyes See

The Lame To Leap

The Deaf To Hear

The Dumb To Speak

And 

By The Risen Dead The Praises Of 

The Life-Giver To Declare

Is 

Worthy To Hear From Us 

Who Hold Him In Godly Fear: 

"I Am Thine, Oh Lord! 

Thy Will Be Done In Me!" 

We Have Heaven To Gain 

So, Dear Ones, Let Us Willingly, Wisely

Boldly, Allow Almighty God's Love 

To Amaze Us Today, Today, And Forever! 

Peace! 

HAPPY SABBATH + GET REAL: Love Involves Labor!

Our Lord Said Two Things 

Which Should Make Us All Come-To Aka Get Real 

When It Comes To The Issue Of Love! 

"If You Love Me

Keep My Commandments!" 

And

"If You Love Me

Feed My Sheep And Lambs!" 

Beloved, 

Love, According To Our Lord, Involves Labor: 

Caring For Your Own Soul 

And

Caring For Others! 

Nowhere In Scripture Does It Say That 

Love Is Hot And Sweaty

Buy Me This Give Me That

I Will Abuse You If You Tell Me "No!" How Dare You Do That!?! 

Or

Because You Love Me You're My Door-Mat Got A Problem With That!?! 

It Is Time To Get Back To The Basics 

Where Love Is Kind

Never Selfish Or Cruel

And 

Does Not Hold Grudges! 

As Committed Christians

We Seriously Need To Live Out The Love In 1 Corinthians 13 

If We Desire To Be Known As True Followers Of The King Of Love

- Our True Shepherd -

Who Alone Is Able To Get Us Safely Home To Our Father's House 

Where Life Is Heavenly, Lovely, Peaceful, And  Perfect! 

The Love That We Display As Christ's Followers 

Is 

Neither Top-Lofty, Licentious, Nor Ludicrous

With Palms Either Held Up To Receive

Or Balled-Up In A Fist To Hurt

But 

Never Turned Down To Give 

Or Sideways To Help! 

We Get What We Give

So Let Us Share The Love That We Desire To Receive! 

Peace! 

Let Us Not Be High-Minded, Hard-Mout' Goats!

We Need To Do Better! 

Consider That 

The Lord Jesus Did Not Use Goat Parts 

To Create Man! 

The Lord Took The Dust Of The Earth 

Which He, Himself, Created 

And 

Formed Man 

And

He, Himself, Blew The Breath Of Life From Himself 

Into Adam's Nostrils 

And 

Caused Him To Be ... Able! 

We Need To Know Our Value 

Through The Eyes Of Almighty God 

And 

Stop Living Like Incendiary Devices 

Always Ready, Willing, And Able To Explode 

And 

Do Damage To Whomever, Whenever

With Or Without Provocation Or Perks! 

Beloved, 

The Lord Is Our Shepherd 

And 

We Are The Sheep Of His Pasture: 

He Leads Us! 

If For Some Unknown Reason ... Or Just Because

You Decide That You Are Better Than Your Creator 

Who Has Life And Death Control Over Your Existence

Consider This: 

You, By Your Own Will

And Exercising Your God-Given Choice

Have Decided That You Are A Goat ... Your Own Leader

And 

He Who Owns You Will Have To Follow Where You Lead! 

Satan Loves This Attitude 

And

 Is Glad To Follow You

Encouraging You To Go To 

The Spiritually-Dead And Eternally-Done End 

To End Existence! 

Jesus Christ Doesn't Make Mistakes: 

We Are To Go To Him To Correct Our Mistakes! 

Let Us Not Be High-Minded, Hard-Mout' Goats 

But 

Be Gentle, Humble, Sheep 

Who Faithfully Follow The Shepherd 

Who Will Restore Our Souls! 

Look To Jesus Christ The Lord 

And 

Be Saved! 

Peace! 

Dig For Hidden Treasure!

Ponder This ... 

Have You Ever Received 

A Big, Sumptuously Wrapped, And Bow-Decorated Gift Box

And Lifted It Up To Check The Weight

Shaken It To Hear If It Rattled

Checked The Gift Card To See From Whom It Came 

Because 

You May Have Some Cheapskate Friends, Relations, And Acquaintances

And 

Recognizing That It Is From The Generous Benefactor 

Who Always Gives Good And Perfect Gifts

Proceeded To Place That Good Gift 

In A Highly Visible And Well Lighted Corner 

Without Opening It 

Because 

You're Going To Save It For A Rainy Day 

Which Only Comes Twice A Year 

Since You Live In A Desert!?! 

Beloved, 

Salvation Full And Free

Is

The Open And Still Wrapped Gift 

With The Name Of Our Lord Jesus 

Prominently Displayed On The Name Tag 

But

With An Appetizingly-Thick Love Letter Attached Saying: 

"Open Immediately

And

Dig For Hid Treasure

Pearls Of Wisdom

Tried Gold

Healing Balm

Eye Salve

And

A White Robe Of Righteousness

An Over-Comer's Crown

And

Your New Name And Life

In And With Me!" 

Today Is The Day Of Salvation! 

The Book Of Love 

Is 

Given To You To Explore And Experience! 

Open The Gifted, Sure Word Of Almighty God

And 

Line Memory's Hall 

With The Found Treasures Of Goodness 

Harvested From Your Excavations! 

Peace! 

The God Who Cannot Lie Or Change!

 

Willful And Own-Way Was A Serious Indictment 

Against One's Character In The Old Days 

But 

It Is Somehow Elevated To A Badge Of Honor 

In These Times Where Participation Trophies

Aka Show Up And Do Nothing

Are A Thing! 

Beloved, 

As Committed Christians

We Cannot Walk Willfully And Unwisely Aka "Doing You!" 

And 

Really Expect The Great God Who Inhabits Glory 

To Pleasurably Say: 

"Good One, Bucko! 

You Didn't Make My Mark 

But At Least You Were On The Planet! 

Come On Up Here 

And Make Everybody Miserable With Your Bad Attitude

Constant Complaining

And Bold Challenging Of My Sovereign Will 

Which Was For Your Safety And Eternal Security!"

"I Cast Lucifer Out For Pride, Lies, Willfulness

Envy, Deceit, Greed, Disobedience

False Worship, Dissension, Warmongering

And Hatred Of My Only Begotten Son ... Your Only Savior

But I'll Let You Into My Fiery Presence 

Where Sin And Sinners Cannot Exist 

Just Because You Were Made In Our Image 

And After Our Likeness 

And Despite The Fact That 

You Despised My Son's Personal Sacrifice 

To Personally Save You 

To Give You A Future, A Hope, And An Expected End

Which You Rejected 

While Diligently Following After Satan 

Our Sworn Enemy ... And Yours

Who Maliciously Engineered Mankind's Downfall 

By Deceiving Eve 

Who Encouraged Adam 

Who, For His Love To Her, Chose To Indulge 

Willful Disobedience!"

"I Am The God Who Cannot Lie Or Change 

But For You, Whatever! 

Enjoy The Eats And Treats!" 

Dear Ones, 

It Ain't Never Gonna Happen

So Let Us Let Almighty God's Will 

Be Our Chosen Way Of Life!

Let Us Straighten Up And Walk Right

And

Be To The Eternal God A Pleasure And A Delight

In The Name Of Jesus Christ The King

Our Lord, God, Savior, Redeemer, And Forever Friend

The Judge Of All Flesh!

We Will Be Forever Blessed! 

Peace!

Join The Clean-Heart Club!

We Keep A Clean House 

But 

Have Dirty Minds! 

We Display Beautiful Faces 

But 

Practice Ugly Habits! 

We War With Each Other 

But 

With The Devil ... Not So Much!

We Decry Bad Behavior In Others 

But 

Excuse It In Ourselves! 

We Elevate Known Wickedness In Our Favorites As Self-Expression 

And

Denigrate Faithful Christians As Holy-Rollers And Jesus-Freaks! 

Beloved, 

Upside-Down Back-To-Front "Wisdom" 

Is 

Worthless, Useless, And Pointless 

For Both Seller And Buyer 

And

Believing That Satan Is Your Friend 

Because 

He Says Do What You Desire

And That 

Wrong Is Right 

Is 

Going To Book You A Berth In The Lake Of Fire! 

We Cannot Paint Truth Black 

And 

Color Lies White 

In The Belief That It Will Change Their Character: 

It Won't! 

Let's Just Accept That The Word Of God 

Is 

Ever True 

And 

Is Good To Fix What Ails Me And You! 

Join The Clean-Heart Club: 

Look Up To 

And

Put On Jesus Christ 

And 

Really Live! 

Peace!

"I Am Following My Heart!?!"

Why Would We ... As A Committed-To-Christ Christians

Ever Utter The Words: 

"I Am Following My Heart!"  

When The Lord Of Life Calls Man's Heart Deceitful 

And, In Truth, Impossible To Know By Man!?! 

Beloved, 

We Really Need To Stop Following Popular Culture 

And 

The Self-Help No Help At All Gurus 

Who ... With Gay Abandon

Encourage People To Doubt The Word Of Almighty God 

To Gleefully Foray Into Fashionable Foolishness! 

There Was A Time When Your Parent Told You How To Live 

And

You Obeyed 

Because 

You Knew That They Loved You 

And 

Wanted What Was Best For You! 

Our Father In Heaven ... Our Parent Supreme

Has Warned Against Trusting Our Deceitful 

Aka Lying, Unholy, Proud, Desperately Wicked Heart 

Which We May Only Know The Right About 

Through His Saving Grace! 

Remember, Remember

Don't Ever Forget ...

Man's Heart Desires What Soothes The Senses 

And 

Not What Pleases Almighty God 

And 

Satisfies The Savior-Seeking Soul! 

It Takes Amazing Grace 

To Get Us To The Heights Of Christ's Surpassing Glory 

Where No Wicked, Unregenerate, Heart May Enter! 

Grace Is Available! 

Grab It! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Stop Calling The Living God A Liar!

 

We Need To Stop Calling The Living God A Liar: 

He Is Not A Man! 

One Of The Most Unscriptural  Things That I Came Across Recently 

Was In A Public Prayer 

Where The Person Asked The Lord 

To Forgive Their Confessed 

And 

Unconfessed Sins 

And

Then Made Much Of Having Received Their "Destiny Helper" 

In Their Year Of Grief For A Lost Spouse! 

Beloved, 

Be Wise 

And 

Choose To Walk In The Truth Of Almighty God! 

Unconfessed Sin 

Is 

Sin Unforgiven! 

Forgiveness And Cleansing 

Ride The Steed Called Confessed Sin!  

Mysticism Aka The Destiny Helper 

Has No Place In Jesus Christ's Christianity! 

The Lord Jesus Christ 

Is 

Our Helper! 

The Holy Spirit 

Is 

Our Comforter 

And 

He, As Promised, Will Lead Us Into All Truth! 

By Their Good Influence And Protecting Care

Holy Angels Help Us 

- Who Choose To Accept The Lord's Free Gift Of Salvation -

To Safely Get Home To Our Father's House! 

Dear Ones, 

"Thus Saith The Lord!" 

Means And Makes The Difference Between Life And Death! 

Let's Not Add To Or Subtract From The Word Of God 

And

Let's Stop Making Simple Things Complex And Convoluted 

To Enrich Wicked Men And Seducers 

Who Want Our Money 

For Their Lying Clanging Bells And Tinkling Cymbals! 

Please Let Your Conversation Be In Heaven 

So That You Don't Fall For Lies On Earth! 

Almighty God Is All! 

Peace! 

Forgive Us, Lord

As We Confess And Repent

And

Help Us, I Beseech You

From Walking In The Truth

Never To Relent!

HAPPY SABBATH + Don't Let Satan Turn You Around!

 

In All Things, Give Thanks!?! 

How Does One Give Thanks For Wood Ants In Your Floor 

And Hornets In Your Attic!?! 

How Are We Supposed To Be Thankful For The Problems

Pressures, Parasites, And Plague-Rats In Our Lives!?! 

With Humility! 

Beloved, 

Wanting To Give Thanks Is Not The Issue! 

Being Obedient 

And

Doing The Will Of Almighty God 

Because 

He Asks Us To

Is 

The Command! 

We Are Soldiers Of The Cross! 

We, For Love, And With Willing Hearts

Offer Up Our Highest Worship 

Aka Obedience With Our Highest Praise Aka "Hallelujah!" 

Because 

We Know That He Who Says "Do!" 

Has Already Done 

And

Has Overcome For Us! 

Jesus Christ's Request 

Is 

A Test Of Our Faith ... Which Works By Love

And

Our Trust In Him Which Can Never Be Misplaced! 

Dear Ones, 

We Must Go Through To Come Through 

And

We Must Get Up To Stand Up 

To Go On Up ... To Jesus Christ's Glory! 

Let Us Remember This Day That 

Our Lord Jesus Equips Us 

And

Accompanies Us To Accomplish All That He Asks Of Us! 

Please Let Us Join Together This Day 

And 

Choose To Defeat Satan 

By Thanking Our Savior Who Satisfies Our Souls 

Through All The Changing Scenes And Seasons Of 

This Short But Eventful Life! 

Don't Let Satan Turn You Around! 

May The Lord Jesus Christ

Our Hope For Glory, Satisfy, Save, Sanctify

And 

Seal Us All Who Are Willing!

Peace!

Careless Words Cost!

Careless Words Cost 

And 

Costly Words Cure Us Of Carelessness! 

We Used To Have An Old Expression 

About Paying For Your Mouth 

And If People Used To Have To Go Down To Coleridge Street

At The Court Building

To Pay For Their Often Useless Talk

They Wouldn't Talk Foolishness! 

Beloved, 

There Is Bible For Your Feet In This Matter! 

Our Words Justify Us! 

Our Words Condemn Us! 

The Old Folk 

And 

The School Master And Mistress 

Used To Tell Us Not To Talk Idle! 

Dear Ones, 

Many Of Us Believe That 

The Only Bad Words Are Swear Words 

But

We Should Sincerely Look At Unkind, Careless

Lawless, Crude, And Cruel 

Aka Candy-Coated Venomous Words! 

We May Spend Our Word-Money Carelessly 

And 

Start Using "Words On Credit" 

But 

The Debt-Collector That 

No One Can Turn Around Or Escape From 

Will One Day Be Right At Our Side! 

Have You Counted The Cost Of 

Self-Condemnation And Other-Denigration!?! 

Same Tongue Different Day Hell To Pay 

Stands Up Against 

Same Day Different Tongue Glory To Share! 

The Call Is Yours Alone To Make! 

I Sincerely Pray That 

We Will All Choose To Speak Peace

Share Love

And 

Give God Glory! 

Words Lift Or Lower! 

Choose The Good Portion! 

Peace!

DARKNESS BEFORE DAWN: The Strait Way Struggle!

 

Onward And Upward 

Is 

On The Strait And Narrow Way 

And

We Will Never Reach The Heavenly Home Safely 

If 

We Allow Our Attention From This Path To Stray! 

Beloved, 

There Will Always Be The Way Faster

The Way More Fun

The Way Less Strenuous

And

The Way Where Doing Without Is Just A Song! 

Think! 

If Anyone "Helps" A Butterfly Out Of His Cocoon

He Will Never Fly 

And

He Will Soon Die! 

If A Humming Bird Forgets Who He Is 

And 

Why He Does What He Does

He Will Become The Feast On The Table Of 

The One Who Will Handle Him 

According To What He Shows Himself To Be 

And 

Not By The Reputation For Which He Is Known! 

Dear Ones, 

A Ground-Dove Will Never Rise 

To The Heights Achieved By An Eagle! 

Please Choose To Live In Your Place 

Near To The Heart Of God 

Through The Lord Christ Jesus 

And 

Though Belittled

Denied, Disregarded

And 

Disrespected

Dare To Firmly Hold The Line That 

Leads To Surpassing Glory! 

There Is Always Darkness Before Dawn! 

Jesus Christ Saves: 

Be Strong In The Lord

And

In The Power Of His Might! 

Peace!
