What we, as Christians, DO, is what counts!


Poem Artwork

 

To see the rewards for patience, for not acting, on what you feel, is such an awesome blessing,
which, used to be, impossible, and still feels, so, unreal.

 

The time it takes, to get to that place, where you filter it, thru His, love,

that He has placed in your heart; every step along the way.
Is culminated, and realized, thru very special, victories, of those that

look to you, to, see, His Word, on, display.

 

To preach is good, but often, never hit's the mark, of change, that leads to a,
contrite, and broken heart,

but when you say it, by example, it can be the pathway, for another soul's, journey,

to forever, a place to bravely,  start.

 

It's not easy to see oneself, or even, what we do, the treachery, and unkindness,

that, finds it's way into our, busy days,

And these times of, me first, make it next to impossible, to realize that it is in giving, that

receiving, will occur, but, first, we must, change our, self serving, ways.

 

Mankind cannot do it, the Old Testament, proves that, true  

That's why Jesus was ordained, to live and to die,  for me, and for you. 

 

But the path is overgrown, the masses have turned it, into their own, eight lane road

that puts SELF as the way, I, gets to drive, and ME, gets, control.

 

It's just a big circle going back to no-where, cause we couldn't do it then, and we can't do it now

But the more, that expound, and make normal, the lie, the harder for the masses to escape, a life that rewards the ego , and to Satan, and his demons,

literally, answer, and bow.

 

Pornography's, the biggest, money maker, our morals, are in, the last stage, of decay, 

They've taken God, off our money, Christ, out of Christmas, and prayers, we cannot, now, publicly say.

 

A huge portion of His church goes along, is swayed and diluted with,

the world's point of view

All the more reason, it really gets down, to me, and to you.

That, what we say is being demonstrated, by what we, ultimately do.

 

One can make a difference, two can change it all,
for He is in our midst, when we gather together, and on Him, call.

 

So stand firm, in, and on, His Word,

live what you preach,

pray that your actions, another's heart may reach

That, they finally, wholeheartedly,

the Lord's mercy, and forgiveness,
fervently, beseech.

"This, say therefore and affirm together with the Lord, that you walk no longer just as the gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind, being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart; and, they having become callous, have given themselves over to sensuality, for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness.

But you did not learn Christ in this way, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, that in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind and put on the new self, which, in the likeness of God, has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth." Eph. 4:17-25

"Therefore, laying aside falshood, speak truth each one of you with his neighbor for we are members of one another.

Be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love just as Christ also loved you, and gave Himself up for us, an offering a sacrifice to God the Father, as a fragrant aroma" Eph. 5:1-2

How true, Brother Art, and how wisely you have written. And sometimes it is exceedingly difficult to act in patience and love when someone treats you as though you are worthless and disgusting.

Jesus is our great example and not only that, it is through Him that we are strengthened and filled with Jesus-love for others. It's a beautiful life when lived by His grace, and it is noticed and watched by those around us, whether we know it or not.

Praise to Him, who molds us, makes us, fills us and uses us for His glory. "I give myself to the Potter's hand."

Be still my heart! Amazingly and spiritually awesome! Your words expressed how important it is, that we as Christians, must be His witness, to the lost and unsaved, to guide them to contrition and their salvation, in the Lord. To recieve His forgiveness,mercy,love,peace,deliverance and be free of the worldly disillusions, Satan's deceptions!

You are My witnesses, says the Lord, and My servants whom I have chosen, That you may know and believe Me, and understand that I am He. Before Me there was no God formed, Nor shall there be after Me. Isaiah 43:10

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in theSpirit. Galatians 5:25
