We pray that the day becomes Right...

Somewhere along the line, something happen to me and God wasn't pleased with that situation. But I don't understand how God can be unhappy with an event he let happen. I was disputing with some brothers and it was a no win situation.

We just had to give in for peace sake. But it was costly. That why I called this peace. "We pray that the day becomes right". And I asking for you prayer that my undisclosed situation becomes right. So the gift can return and we can explore God wisdom again.

Something that we are studying today: In the old testament, the sacrifices continue, now money is involved. So its a tracedental thing, from animal sacrifice to giving money. But there's something the looms this morning as we read, God says is Hosea 6:6, It's mercy I want and not

sacrifice. The purpose of the whole matter was not to have rhetorical exercise in knowledge or 'wisdom' but to bring mercy. Jesus told the Pharisees see that you go learn, I desire mercy and not sacrifice...In the new testament Jesus makes this statement,21 And he said to them,"Is a

lamp brought in to be put under a basket, or under a bed, and not on a stand?22 For nothing is hidden except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret except to come to light.23 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear."24 And he said to them,"Pay attention to what you hear: with the

measure you use, it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you.25 For to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away."Is the truth to be hidden? Will it be able to stay hidden? And I we hide the truth, he

finishes...and from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away. I don't know how this happen to an individual, but things don't work then and nothing seems to work. Like Lot's wife, she wanted to hold on to what she had and she turned into a pillar of salt. Like wise Jesus

said that if any body loves his life more than him, he will eventually loose that too. But what does it all mean?Sometimes we don't prosper because because the measure we use, will be measured back to us...quite a variety of statements. Perhaps you know what this all means? The fact of the

matter is that we can do nothing agaist the truth but everything for the truth. And if God want go to remote place on the globe or putting in terms an outsider might understand God is willing to make that kind of sacrifice. God loves to sacrifice Dogma for fellowship. Reaching the lost is

the prime directive and not how much wisdom I accumulate to put in books or rules. The word of God is not for the shelf but to bring someone to enlightment. But how mush rhetoric sacrifice are we willing to make to reach our goal- to save some lost souls. Jesus says in Luke 14, if your

son or even your ox falls on pit will you not put down your Mantra and take him or even it out? What measures are we willing to take to build our tower? Are we willing to pay cost? Or are we going to look back and turn into a pillar of salt? May you be blessed. Amen.

First Idle then cranky...

It was a rainbow color today with all the activities of the day. I took my mother to see her doctor for check-up MRI. And she was cheerful. I wasn't feeling too well in the morning. I drank all the doctors office coffee and that made me feel better.

I took a stroll outside. I take a stroll when I need to be reminded of the majesty of God and his creation. I took my little bible and turned to Matthew. The ontourage of soldiers and mob was on its way to apprehend Jesus in the garden. There was a garden outside the doctors office.

Jesus said to them, who are you looking for? Jesus of Nazaret they shouted. I AM and them fell back. That name was so forbidden to Jew that they don't pronounce it because they consider it so holy. And there this subject calling himself I AM or JHWV.

Why they shuddered and collapsed. For an instant they believed this shocking statement. But then they regained their composure and followed suit to what they came to do- apprend the Author of Life.

The breeze kept flipping the pages on my little bible and I looked out toward the horizon and marveled at the city and the sky and clouds and thought about the I AM. I was beginning to feel better and proceeded to have a wonderful day of activity and errands.

But came home and found that I had been kicked of the database for lack of funds. I payed them twice and not result. I lost money for today. I sat on my sofa and just asked God if everything was alright with us. And the great I AM stirred my heart to think " Have you really run out of

databases to do my work...? I honestly returned to a site which I consider it a country home where I retire to write when I kicked out of every where else. And I thought of the great I AM. Databases are no problem to him. All technology is founded on his grace and word.

My mother came out of the doctors office cheerful and I now look back and I had trusted the I AM for the rest of the day, I would of had a continual feast all day. But I now thank God that he sent his angel to sit with me on the sofa and examine the back door or the light on God had left

for me today. Yes it way idle and then cranky, the great I AM continues through all circumstances. Yes we lost money but the giver of all things was with me today and comforted me with his peace. Perhaps you too can share the fellowship with the great I AM and we

meditate on this as we continue to flip pages on our bible. May you be blessed. Amen.
