This is a weekly
series that will include a brief summary of the latest articles that have been
published on The Tribulation Times Herald-Exhorter. Hopefully, this will encourage you to go
check out some truly outstanding articles that have been published by a number
of truly outstanding authors. Moreover,
I hope this will also encourage you to want to become a contributing
member/author, as well. The “Hear Ye! Hear Ye!” site explanation near the top of
the side-bar should answer many of your questions. Yes, this series also included an “SOS! (Spam
On Saturdays)” segment before, but it
just wasn’t working for me. Therefore,
that will be replaced by a republishing of one of the Trib articles.
[ESPN Additions] goes to show that we should not try to live by hamburgers alone.
[WhiteHeart Wednesday] contains a video and the lyrics for Guiding Light.
It was while I was outside of the house and shouting
out loud that God loved me and that He was in control when a particularly
disturbing thought invaded the inner recesses of my mind. For it reasoned that if God really did love
me and really was in full control of all that happens, then why did He allow
all of the things that had contributed to my current state of absolute misery
to happen in the first-place?
Time seemed to stand still at that very moment. Making it even more intense was being made
acutely aware of the fact that a very great many (if not all) of the angelic
host in Heaven were eagerly awaiting my response.
No, I was not driven to my knees by a bright Light
[Acts 9:1-19], but I do not consider what I experienced as being any less
significant. For just as soon as I
seriously asked, “What is going on?,” my eyes were opened to see things as they
really were.
Changing metaphors, what started as a trickle soon
became a flood. For I was inundated with
answers to questions that I had never thought to ask before, and I began to
feel like the Prophet Jeremiah felt like when He was called to proclaim what He
had been given to say [Jeremiah 1:4-10].
That
was an excerpt from [The Nineteenth Crumb (Amazing Grace)] of [The CrackerheadChronicles]. Aside from maybe being made
acutely aware of angels wondering how it will go, all of us will experience
something quite similar before our time as a part of this world comes to an
end.
Quite
sadly, it will be much later than sooner for far too many. For far too many absolutely refuse to let go
of their religious traditions without a bitter fight.
Nonetheless,
all will have their questions answered in the hope that they will want to truly
accept what our Heavenly Father actually says is absolutely true before it is
too late—be assured. For our Heavenly
Father created each and every one of us to spend all of eternity with Him in
His Kingdom of Heaven as an heir to all that is His in glory, and He has never
delighted in the eternal death of anyone [Ezekiel 18:32].
Alas,
I really should be much more appreciative of ALL that our Heavenly Father has
done for me. For it was made fairly easy
for me to want to truly accept what He actually says is absolutely true. For He had placed in me a position to where I
had absolutely no confidence in myself and fairly isolated from my religious
upbringings. Is that what it is going to
take for you?
Tragically,
even that will not be enough for far too many.
For they took it firmly to heart to never let anyone lead them astray from
what they were being taught—not even the Lord God Almighty Himself.
Examine yourselves to see whether you are
in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in
you—unless, of course, you fail the test? And I trust that you will discover
that we have not failed the test. Now we pray to God that you will not do
anything wrong—not so that people will see that we have stood the test but so
that you will do what is right even though we may seem to have failed. For we
cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. We are glad
whenever we are weak but you are strong; and our prayer is that you may be
fully restored. This is why I write these things when I am absent, that when I
come I may not have to be harsh in my use of authority—the authority the Lord
gave me for building you up, not for tearing you down. [2 Corinthians 13:5-10 NIV]

Politics and faith are two subjects I leave pretty private- that way I don't have to agree to disagree or agree with anyone. Cool idea right?! Ha ! Ha! But on the faith of blogging, let me tell you it's been a way busy week for me- and I am so going to try and catch up on my blogging- and emails- because the blogger world keeps on moving and posting even when our life is in the washer and dryer modes!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Karen!!! It all depends upon what He wants to accomplish in and through each and every one of us. Woe be it unto me (to a much, much greater extent) if I were to remain silent.
