 “CALL OUT TO GOD!”

Jeremiah 17:10

“I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.”

I have heard people from many religious persuasions (even atheists) take the Lord’s name in vain. It blows my mind that they profane the name of Jesus or God.  Why do they not profane their own supposed god or one they deny? I think that they know the truth but refuse to admit it.

Perhaps you have heard the joke about a church that fasted and prayed for lightning to strike a tavern that was scheduled to open next door to the church. Sure enough, the night before the tavern was due to open it was struck by lightning and burned to the ground.

The tavern owner sued the church, claiming that they were responsible for his business being destroyed. The church argued that they were not responsible for the destruction. In his deliberation the judge said that he was confounded. He was dealing with a tavern owner who believed in the power of prayer and, on the other hand, a church congregation that didn’t! Ouch!!

Tragedies are a very real part of the human experience. It may be a personal or family tragedy or it may be something that impacts a community or even a nation.  It is then that people call out to the One true God and Jesus Christ His Son.

Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today and be a blessing!

 “SOFTLY AND TENDERLY!”

softlyandtenderly from GloryScapes on Vimeo.

Revelation 3:20

“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.

This beautiful hymn was composed by Will Thompson who lived from 1847 to 1909. The words seem to capture the heart of the listener and draw us to come to Jesus. You can almost picture Jesus Himself standing patiently urging us to come to Him.

He not only pleads for us to come, but he offers complete pardon to anyone and everyone who will come to Him. He offers He has paid the price and He has the authority to extend pardon to any who will come to Him.

The words of this hymn stress the urgent need of those who are lost. Some may feel like they have time before making that decision, but sadly for many they wait too long. Now is the hour of decision to receive Christ’s mercy and pardon! 

“SOFTLY AND TENDERLY”

1. Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling for you and for me;

See, on the portals He’s waiting and watching, watching for you and for me.

Refrain: Come home, come home. You who are weary come home;

Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling, O sinner, come home.

2. Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading; pleading for you and for me?

Why should we linger and heed not His mercies; mercies for you and for me?

Refrain: Come home, come home. You who are weary come home;

Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling, O sinner, come home.

3. Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing, passing from you and for me.

Shadows are gathering, deathbeds are coming, coming for you and for me.

Refrain: Come home, come home. You who are weary come home;

Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling, O sinner, come home.

4. O, for the wonderful love He has promised, promised for you and for me!

Though we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon, pardon for you and for me.

Refrain: Come home, come home. You who are weary come home;

Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling, O sinner, come home.

“MANIAC TO MINISTER!”

Mark 5:20

“And he departed and began to proclaim in Decapolis all that Jesus had done for him; and all marveled.”

On the way to the land inhabited by the Gerasenes the disciples encountered a storm that was worse than anything they had ever experienced. They were certain their boat was about to be swamped and all of them would drown. In Mark, chapter four, we read about how Jesus calmed the storm (another one of His many miracles).

When the disciples’ boat finally arrived on the shore, they were greeted by a demon possessed man with super-human strength. Knowing who Jesus was and recognizing His authority, the demons begged to go into a herd of swine. Jesus granted their request (which demonstrates to us the power He has over demonic forces).

The man, now delivered and free from the demons, was so grateful that he begged Jesus to allow him to follow Him. Jesus declined, but told him to go home and tell his family. In today’s Scripture we read that the man went far beyond. He began to preach to the ten cities of the region.

We have no idea who this man was, but I eagerly look forward to seeing him in heaven to hear how it felt to be changed from maniac to minister to the Gerasenes. 

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
