Lift Up Your Head!

It is God’s Perfect Will that we should walk this earth until …He says… our journey is over, and…He…is with us! So then, with heads held high…Let’s Press-on! Amen.


Poem Artwork

Lift up your head…!

for tomorrow comes

Lift up your head…!

listen…! hear revelry’s drum

Troubles…will pass…

contentment will abound

ribbons of tranquil …be as grass

present distress…will not be found

You’ll soon find that…‘peace on earth’…

were not …mere cherub’s words

yet, a promise… from Jehovah’s court

of what faith does concur

Admittedly, some paths be not a lark, for…

ongoing…is this war…against wrong

wherefore, you have…heavenly garments…

thus, don them…and be strong

Ravish….His Living Word…

let adorning of prayer…be ever

revive…with healing chords of praise

rebuke doubt’s taunt…and sever

You would not be standing…

if...God had not so endowed

but...He knows...what you can bear...

albeit, what He has allowed

These times of heavy languishing…

changes…to only a reflective thought

as you peer through a serene pane,

and tread docile waters…He…wrought

The King of Glory…lovingly claims

each tear the …tried… sheds

it’s not the end, but a new beginning…

Lift up your head!

 

1 Corn 10:13, Job 23:8-10, Ps 24:7-10

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help. And when you see these things beginning to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near. Thank you for the reminder and the encouragement, JMS Bell. Love and Light.... r

A great call to be positive. In spite of the discouraging news that actually focuses for the most part on the extreme or negative in world society, statistical studies show that each century, the world gets better for the citizens of the earth regardless of their prior designation. We have left our violent past behind in favor of fair negotiation and compromise that a few try to reverse but are overwhelmed with the facts in the end, that making the least of us better (like insects) makes the rest of us better.

No need to wait for God to intervene we are doing good ourselves, even if we suspect that we are not, because we actually know the difference and can act on it positive ways like making or revising law and acting better than we have in the past.

"He knows what you can bear."

"You are not given more than you can bear." (Quran)

I certainly hope so.

Our journey is not over until God says it's over. Until then, we should still keep on walking and hold our chins up high.

It's wild that I read this just now, Joyce! A friend and I were discussing what we see happening before our very eyes! If I don't make it to Heaven, I pray that I will be on the "new earth". I'm not afraid. He knows me.............He knew me before I was born. This is some comforting and powerful ink, my friend!!

Love ya!

Jane
