I thought tonight,
that I would come in, and eat dinner, and watch a movie. Grabbing
movies off the Internet today, is the easiest thing to do. I have so
many, on my hard drive that I haven't watched yet, that I can put
anymore on, until I take some off. Well.....I also have a lot of
video's, music and a few games also.
Wow!! I totally
forgot about the most important thing. I have a good bit of Bible
software, that I use daily. Geeze Louise......My mind sometimes!!
My laptop is my only source of entertainment, besides an old mp3
player. I am a well versed man, in modern technology, and a world
traveler, of three States!!
I put on a movie.
The passion of the Christ. I love that movie, and cry real tears, at
way that they treat my Jesus!! I can get down right angry, until I
remind myself, that I was just as guilty. I have been driving the
spikes into His feet, for a long time. I am compelled, to thank
Jesus, for His mercy and grace!!
Anyway,....I
couldn't watch much of it, because I am still over-whelmed, about the
Sunday service. I know that it is only Monday night, but I have been
thinking about this since it happened. There is a formula to follow,
to get great events, like that to happen. To get Father to come, and
receive worship, and praise, from His children. It is not a casual
event. God didn't simply decide to show up, with great blessings in
hand. He just didn't happen to be in the neighborhood, and decided to
drop in, and see what was happening.
Father is a God of
order. (1 cor 14:40) Let all things be done decently, and in
order. Back during the time of burnt offerings, there was an
order to every part of it. The alter had to be constructed certain
ways, and it would vary from material that was used, to construct the
alter. It would vary in size depending on what the sacrifice was, and
how much was being sacrificed.
The wood that burnt
the offering, had to be laid in a certain order. The animals that were
being used for the sacrifice had to be laid in special ways. Some of
them had to be cut into distinctive pieces, of various sizes.
I love studying in
the Word. I was going to show the things of Father, and the order
that He expects to have. What I have done is prove to myself, that
Father is an extremist, when it comes to, the order of things. I
don't think it is because He is a stickler, or even a fuddy-duddy. I
believe that He is that way, simply, because that is the absolute
best way, for it to work!! Love is why Father tells us, how do
everything. He has been around a few more days, than we have, and He
is simply trying to guide us, in a pain free direction.
( Proverbs 10:22)
The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and He addeth no
sorrow with it. The last thing that Father wants to see His
children in pain, and suffering in any way. Wouldn't all my Christian
readers agree, with this statement? The Word of God, is a blessing,
of the Lord. I would dare say, that just the thought, that Father
would care enough about me, to give me a word, is a double blessing!!
There are so many
good folks out there, that just do not get the concept, of who Father
really is. I have actually heard people say, that it was really hard
for them to get Saved, because they were living so well, and doing
little wrong. I still don't have an idea, what they really meant by
that statement, but it sure make me glad, that I was pure rotten to
the core!!
My biggest problem
with Salvation, was accepting the fact, that I was Saved, and
allowing Jesus to clean me up!! I spent a lot of years diving into
the hog pen of life, and nothing, but the redness, of the whites, of
my eyes showing. Then that pen would dry up, and I would crawl out,
get cleaned up, until I would walk past another pit, and jump right
on in!! Y'all don't think that is just dirt and water, that makes
that mud, that us hawgs wallered in.... do you?
All them religious
folks reading this right now, are looking around, trying find someone
else to share this with. I can just hear them. He thinks that he is a
Christian!! Well, I never heard such foolishness. I never did no such
thing!! The truth is that I really don't know, what to think
about that statement either. Lord Jesus, I really thank you for your
mercy, and grace upon my life. I know that my goodness, didn't not
qualify me, for a push in the pit. Little lone, that extended Hand
that pulled me out!!
