The important thing is to strive towards a goal which is not immediately visible. That goal is not the concern of the mind, but of the spirit.

Just Take a Step
I’m the only Savior there is.
I spoke, I saved, I told you what existed
long before these upstart gods appeared on the scene.
And you know it, you’re my witnesses,
you’re the evidence.” God’s Decree.

Fluid Lines
30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
~ Hebrews 10:30-31
15-17 “If a fellow believer hurts you, go and tell him—work it out between the two of you. If he listens, you’ve made a friend. If he won’t listen, take one or two others along so that the presence of witnesses will keep things honest, and try again. If he still won’t listen, tell the church. If he won’t listen to the church, you’ll have to start over from scratch, confront him with the need for repentance, and offer again God’s forgiving love.
~Matthew 18:15-17
The thing is, if one does not maintain the lines of authority, the chain of communication breaks down, and the lines of gossip and case building start up. Neither of these is number one on the preferred list. It is on the down side of the ideal solution and often means the person who has the “ought” does not have the strength to speak to the other party.
Today, try to make your lines flow, go through the proper channels and if they don’t work, seek God’s counsel before your mouth utters a syllable.
Because of Him,
Linda

He Will Find You
He will find you at the needle’s end
He will find you when you beg and steal and borrow
He will follow you into the strangers bed
He will find you when they serve you with the papers
He wil find you when the locks have changed again
He will find you when you’ve called in all your favours
He will meet you at the bridges highest ledge
So baby don’t look down
It’s a long way
The sun’ll come around to a new day
So hold on
Love will find you
Hold on
He’s right behind you now
Just turn around and love will find you
It will find you when the doctors head is shaking
It will find you in the boardroom, yes it did
It will crawl into the foxhole where you’re praying
It will curl up in your halfway empty bed
So baby don’t believe that it’s over
Maybe you can’t see around the corner
So hold on
Love will find you
Hold on he’s right behind you now
Just turn around and love will find you
To hang between two theives in the darkness
Love must believe you are worth it
You’re worth it
So hold on
Love will find you
Hold on he’s right behind you now
Just around, he’s right behind you now
Just turn around, love will find you
Love will find you
He’s gonna be here
Love will find you, love will find you
Re-read a Classic
When you re-read a classic you do not see in the book more than you did before. You see more in you than there was before.
Huzzah!
What saves a man is to take a step. Then another step. It is always the same step, but you have to take it.
I have put my hope in your word.
