“He will quiet you with His love”

(Zephaniah 3:17c)

I walked into this empty church I had no place else to go
When the sweetest voice I ever heard, whispered to my soul
I don't need to be forgiven for loving you so much
It's written in the scriptures
It's written there in blood
I even heard the angels declare it from above
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love.

**Leonard Cohen

 

Slow down.

Shut it off.

Be still.

He will quiet you with His love.

 

 

Listen.

Learn.

Be open.

He will quiet you with His love.

 

 

Forgive others.

As well as yourself.

Be a blessing.

He will quiet you with His love.

 

 

All the Marthas.

Look at the Marys.

Come.

He will quiet you with His love.

Dealing the Authentic

Buy the truth and do not sell it.

(Proverbs 23:12a)

Where can you find truth?

Real truth

not that packaged crap - Trooth.®

I heard there was one guy

who said He was the truth.

The competition came down on Him hard,

but I heard He’s still dealing

the authentic.

He brags that it’s

so good it will set you free.

Baptism

The little saint

comes forward to become

a citizen

of the Kingdom.

The little saint

raises her face

to the empty cross

of salvation and grace

The little saint

knows no wisdom

only love --

the passport to the Kingdom.

O little saint!

For the rest of your days,

worship the LORD for

He is holy.

And

please believe it

precious one -

you are too.

Amen.
