SLOW down, take it EASY, read THE WORD with intent, and diligence; give it time to meld into the being; it IS imperative TO allow it to seep into the heart, the spirit, the being!!!

Thanksgiving for the LORD's Favor

Psalms 138 (A Psalm of David)
1/ I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.
2/ I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
3/ In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
4/ All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth.
5/ Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.
6/ Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
7/ Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.
8/ The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me:
thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands... AMEN!!!
One CANNOT earn GRACE, it is HIS own ESSENCE; a gift, still, IF one claims to be IN HIS GRACE, we ARE to, or, OUGHT to, be reflections of that GRACE! 2 CORINTHIANS 6:1, tells us not to take HIS GRACE in vain! This means, living in LOVE, morality, ethics, virtue, righteousness, and, spiritual improvement, TOWARDS, spiritual maturity, WHILE, visibly BEING as LIGHTS, beaming OF *GOD*, beckoning the world, TO THE LIGHT! Righteousness MEANS, conduct in conformity with *GOD'S* WILL, and, "Be HOLY because I AM HOLY!", therefore, indicating that knowledge, wisdom, and, effort, DO, apply TO the righteous!!! NEVER forget, we were grafted in, and, if we do not bear fruit, as a dead branch, we will be pruned out, just as were, the natural branches!!!

We are not saved by works, instead, works PROVE HIM in us: they identify HIS own...
IF I claim ONENESS with *GOD*, through CHRIST JESUS, I am DEAD TO THE WORLD, THUS, LIVING as HIM, which is, hopefully, witnessed IN, and, THROUGH, my every thought, action, and, reaction; MEANING, I am, THROUGH CONSCIOUS application OF THE WORD, HIS COMMANDS, HIS WILL, REFLECTING righteousness, not, merely, FAITH! I become, the TRULY FRUITFUL branch, of THE VINE, the TRUE member of THE BODY/THE CHURCH, CHRIST JESUS, and, TESTIFY, then, GLORIFY, BOLDLY, BY my thoughts, actions, and, reactions, HIS name, because, HE IS WORTHY, and, IN HIS LOVE, has SHOWN me, how I OUGHT to exist, to which, I eagerly, adapt, and, comply!!!

MATTHEW 5:48...

So be perfect,
just as your heavenly Father is perfect

1 PETER 1:14-16...
14/ Like obedient children, do not act in compliance with the desires of your former ignorance
15/ but, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in every aspect of your conduct,
16/ for it is written, "Be holy because I (am) holy."


ROMANS 12:2...
Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.
Conduct, in conformity to *GOD'S* WILL, marks the righteous; it is NOT because of guilt, or, ancient Laws, but, because of LOVE; LOVE for *GOD*, self, then, others! CHRIST JESUS gave us Commandments to live by, of which, the first is to LOVE *GOD*, with all of your mind, heart, and, soul; the second is, to LOVE one another!

LOVE COMPELS us to LIVE IN HIM, through conduct which conforms to *GOD*; in other words, morality, ethics, doing good, and, being good, and, ever striving to improve the spirit! It is about REFLECTING THE TRUTH, for ALL to bear witness to, FOR, and, TO HIS GLORY, RADIANTLY SHINING OF HIS POWER, GRACE, and, MERCIES!!!

It IS ALL ABOUT LOVE, baby, all about LOVE!!!

MATTHEW 4: 17...
From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

JOHN 14:15...
"If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

MAY PEACE BE WITH YOU, ALWAYS!!!

NOTE: I do not intend to preach, rather to reach; to stir up, awaken, to inspire, and, bring forth, in discussion, that which is, perhaps, dormantly existing in the heart of hearts, thus, little, or, no, sugar coatings, just THE WORD of *GOD*, the TRUTH, along with some of my thoughts. And truth is, I am reminding myself always, as I practice these reminders, in the best of my abilities, and capacities, while RELYING on THE LORD to lead me on that narrow PATH---> MATTHEW 7: 14: "For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it... TO *GOD* BE ALL GLORY...

EVERYBODY PRAISE THE LORD: LINCOLN BREWSTER

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO THE GREATEST FATHER IN EXISTENCE!!!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to the GREATEST FATHER, existence ever knew, and, thank YOU for YOUR LOVING-KINDNESS! Honestly, I cannot begin to express my gratitude for YOUR LOVE, for the lessons YOU have taught me, for the protection, guidance, comfort, and, provisions, which YOU have so generously lavished upon me, upon the world! A LOVE such as YOURS, has NEVER existed, and, NEVER shall; for YOUR LOVE, alone, is pure, incorruptible, infinite, and, graciously MERCIFUL!!!

I have begun to understand YOU, as much as I can, and, I have to say, YOUR WAYS ARE mystically empowering, TO life, and, to the living! Some don't realize that, the lessons, and, instructions YOU have set forth, ARE FOR THE GOOD OF ALL IN CREATION! NONE of YOUR instructions are for any purpose, but, for our own good, and, safety, as well as, to maintain PEACE, harmony, and, happiness, in the world!!!

I wish ALL Earthly FATHERS, could follow YOUR sensible WAYS, YOUR precepts, and, YOUR COMMANDS, because, I have SEEN, through the LACK of embracing them, what has become of this world: broken Families, unhappy people, and, Children, whom have had to endure things beyond their age, and, reasoning! IF we were WISE enough to follow YOUR WAYS, this world WOULD be EDEN!  I SEE, clearly, through the mess we have made of things, the SOLID SENSE of YOUR WAYS, and, I am even more indebted, and, appreciative of YOU! After all, we have the advantage of YOUR SON, whom, despite the world's throes, remained perfect, BECAUSE HE understands the measure, and, good, of YOUR WAYS, and, TOTALLY, respects them, so, it is even more confounding, that, we DON'T 'get' it! What better example could we hope for?!!

YOU know, I gave YOU some tough times, and, I am sorry for that, but, I KNOW YOU LOVE me, and, hope, with all my heart, that YOU WILL, always forgive me! I think YOUR LOVE is perfect, and, so, on that LOVE, I have redesigned my life, as YOU know, but which, I want YOU to understand, is from the depths of my being, in sincerity, and, humility, FOR the wrongness of the past! I don't feel guilty so much, as I feel silly, because, IF I had been taught properly, a long time ago, I would not have had to put YOU through so much, yet too, I believe that all things have happened according TO YOUR WILL, and, here I am today, at YOUR service, proclaiming YOUR name ABOVE all else, and, following YOUR WILL, to the best of my ability, and again, I have to say, THANK YOU, for YOU spared me, MANY times, and, led me to this day, with a LOVE so indescribable, and, so immense, that, it gushes forth as all the waters in CREATION, to fill, then, overspill, in, and, from my being!!!

It is FATHER'S DAY, and, TO YOU, I pay tribute, for YOU, ALONE, ARE the MODEL of what a FATHER is! I LOVE YOU, so, in that LOVE, I feel the need to HONOUR YOU, in my ways, for the rest of my days!!!

BLESS YOU, my LORD, PRAISE YOU, THANK YOU, and, ALL GLORY BE UNTO THEE, forever, and, more!!!

To you worldly FATHERS, especially those who have taken the time to BE FATHERS, and, understand the imperativeness of your role in this life, HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, may *GOD* BLESS, and, BE with you, always!!!

MALACHI 2:7-8...
7/ "For the lips of a priest ought to preserve knowledge, and from his mouth men should seek instruction—because he is the messenger of the LORD Almighty.
8/ But you have turned from the way and by your teaching have caused many to stumble; you have violated the covenant with Levi," says the LORD Almighty...
When you GIVE HOPE, you find HOPE, and, any time you find HOPE, be sure to GIVE it to someone else!!!

By FAITH we sleep, by FAITH we live, by FAITH we keep...lw'12

HOSEA 6:6...
For it is love that I desire, not sacrifice, and knowledge of God rather than holocausts.

(MATTHEW 9:13 & MATTHEW 12)

The world over, needs prayers, day in, day out! LET US PRAY WITHOUT CEASING! Let LOVE be the voice we lift UP to *GOD*! May HE BLESS us, and, may we allow HIM to show us THE WAY!!! PRAISE HIS MIGHTY name, and, GLORIFY HIM in thought, action, and, reaction!!!
The messengers of PEACE, in the heart of LOVE, have been handpicked by the Creator *GOD*, from the ranks of life, for HE knows the effectiveness of using those who have survived the worst, and now understand the best. In this way, the warriors of PEACE & LOVE are empowered, with strength, fortitude, longwithstanding, therefore, enabled to create ripples in the minds, & lives of mankind...

No GREATER LOVE exists:

No GREATER LOVE exists:
as CHRIST JESUS died for me, I, also die in HIM, and, ONLY IN HIM, do I find LIFE...

LOVE ONE ANOTHER---DAN LUEDERS
