Truth and untruth, right and wrong, judgment and grace, isn’t that where we got into trouble in the first place? Knowing my place with the Kingdom has been the greatest wisdom the Lord has given. It is by grace I have been saved that wretched man that I was, it is by the Holy Spirit’s indwelling sanctification that I have become a new creature and is through God’s will, power, authority, provision and gifting that I fulfilled Kingdom requirements. Unlike the enemy, the Lord rebuke him if He so chooses, I do not want to be in charge. Not just of other people’s lives, but my own, for each time I have been given the opportunity to steer the boat, it’s straight into the rocks we go.
I have found peace and comfort in my position as servant. If you need prayer, I will pray for you, knowing and trusting fully that God knows what is best for you. If you need love I will welcome you with a Brotherly hug and wait until your danger passes. If you need bread, my kitchen is yours, take that which you need and please take a little extra to give to someone you meet. If you need wisdom I will sit and share with you the Word of God from which He gives amply to all who ask. If you need a helping hand or a willing back, I will never avoid your call. If you need a fellow soldier, I have donned the full armor of God so that we might stand in victory, courage and faith expecting our deliverance. If you need salvation, I will bring you to the foot of that mighty Cross of Christ where you too might be redeemed by the only one who can, Jesus Christ the King.
None of this requires my definition, my grace, my authority or imputes one smidgen of glory to my columned diary. He knew me in my Mother’s womb, He gave me the gifts, the money and the smarts I presently use to survive and when I was beyond redemption He gave His own life so that I might live. You deserve my Love because He loves both of us. Answer to Him for the accounting of your life, I will help guide you and expect from you the same as we walk this skinny path together. in Christ’s Holy name I pray.
Thank you!
