Broken

 There are so many broken souls today in this shattered world. A bird caught in a snare, people flounder and flap about. Friends and foes alike struggle mentally and physically. Their demeanor reveals their feelings of great confusion; some brokenhearted. They have floundered, not knowing quite how to react to the current society's serious difficulty. The people of the world struggle mentally. Some react with violence, some through legal measures, and some with prayers amiss. All are flapping with a broken wing from the struggle in Satan’s snare. The fault is his. We share in the blame. 

 In life, I have found lives broken by Satan’s seductive art. Filled with Christ’s love and pity I’ve tried his love to impart. Broken wings will mend to an awkward flight. But the soul lent to Satan, is stricken and never rises as high again. 

 Like the bird caught in the poachers snare unable to escape and floundered to brokenness, some jitter-bug in Satan’s web until spirits are broken. If only those suffering pangs of discontent would only observe the entrapped soul in despair, it might keep them from the devil’s web. Thus the life Satan had withered would have saved another from the snare. Every loss has its compensation. Christ gives healing for every complaint. But the bird with a broken wing that mends never flies as high again.

 However, unlike the snared bird rescued and healed, broken faith and spirit brought before God is healed. There remains no deformity or limits to heights in flight. The wings that Christ mends soar out of sight. Satan cannot snare them; his devices have been revealed. Now, you broken and despaired, go to God’s word and get repaired. His grace he will give you to let you higher soar again.

 Romans 11:17 “14 ...If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them. 15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? (17) And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; 18 Boast not against the branches... The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in. 20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith”.

 Ephesians 14:12 “That at that time ye were without Christ...and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: 13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. 14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;” 

 Know God, know peace. Amen. 05/19/21 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing an audience wit

A Giving Heart

  A GIVING HEART “ Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.” (1 Chronicles 29:9) Israel’s people brought gifts for the construction of the holy temple in Jerusalem, it is mentioned no less than six times in this chapter that their offerings were willing offerings. In fact, they were not only willing but it also brought rejoicing in their hearts. They were building a worship house. It was a sacred place, a place belonging to all who would come to worship. Joyful giving is not the usual response to a fundraising effort for a religious cause by modern church leaders. The parishioners follow the attitude of their chosen pastors and often the pastor tickles their ears to encourage giving. The great proliferation of solicitation of money today by media broadcast has developed a growing cynicism in Christians toward all tithing. Further, misuse of col

This Day

  Each Day We can only live each day in its time frame. Yesterday, with its ups and downs is passed never to return. Tomorrow is a vision of hope not yet on the horizon. Today is the day the Lord has given us. Let Each Day We can only live each day in its time frame. Yesterday, with its ups and downs is passed never to return. Tomorrow is a vision of hope not yet on the horizon. Today is the day the Lord has given us. Lets make the best soldier for Him that we can while the day passes into yesterday. Each day bares its on unique set of events. Some recognizable some masked in ignorance. As we near the dawning of a new day, calling upon the Lord is a necessary activity. If we neglect the creat o r and giver of the new day, we simply cannot have a right spirit. Joy comes in the morning only through God’s book of promises. You can depend upon them unless the bible is shelved drawing dust. Open the new day with prayer and an open book. 1 Timothy 4: 4 “ For every creature of God
