Envoy

  Envoy 2 Corinthians 5: 18  “ And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation ; 19  To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20  Now then we are ambassadors for Christ , as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. ” Isaiah 40:3  “ The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the  Lord , make straight in the desert a highway for our God .”      He has entrusted us with the message of reconciliation.   The Great King declares He will come back again.   He knows His Father’s wrath.   The world is in severe want.   Its sins He holds against her and requires restitution she can only give by her blood.      The Father is ...

I Am Not Ashamed

  I Am Not Ashamed Luke 9:26  “ For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels. ”      No, not of that Man.   I will not shrink back into a hole embarrassed because my peers look upon me with disbelief.   What is genuine will be shown.   Want to know what makes this man tick?   Listen to the words of his mouth then watch the action of his hands.   I will not be ashamed.   Not after what He has done for me.      Do I have to rehearse to feel it again?   I picture a cross and a bloody piece of meat staked to it.   If I cannot identify with that, I fool myself.   I know the wickedness inside me and how my Savior liberated me to be another, another like Him.      Peace on the home front.   Respect in the workplace.   The capacity to s...

And Where Were You?

  And Where Were You?      My best friend’s mother took her own life.   We were in high school at the time.   It came as a surprise, kind of.   Her previous attempt was unsuccessful, so she tried again.      Suicide can do weird things to a family.   Question marks float in the air sometimes never being resolved.   Guilt can come and rest on shoulders.   Plausible answers temporarily cover the shame.   “Oh, there must have been something wrong.”   Mummers about the town as you feel the starting eyes.   One question:   Where is God in all this?      Pain can convince us that He has left.   Somehow His presence is sucked away and clouds are left about our heads.   Truth is, His temple is not based on our feelings.   If our feelings gave Him substance, then He would not be much of a god.      He lives out of our reality not to be mani...
