Do as I do


Meditation on Matthew 25:35-36


For I was hungry
and you fed Me
as I provided manna in the desert.
 
 
For I was thirsty
and you gave Me something to drink
as I showed the abandoned Hagar a well in the desert.
 
 
I was naked
and you gave Me clothes
as I did with Adam and Eve.
 
 
I was sick
and you looked after Me
as I took care of a faithful Job.
 
 
I was in prison
and you came to see Me
as I heard the cries of My exodus people.
 
 
The King said
Follow My example
and do the same.

Verse 1- Exodus 16
Verse 2- Genesis 21:19

You can't walk away from the price you pay

(Matthew 14:45-46)

The Kingdom of God is like a pearl
That you would pay everything you had in the world.
Would you show off your treasure every day?
Or keep it safe knowing the price you paid?
Or would you wait for the time
When you could buy it on sale?

“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.
