12/31/19 SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS
People sometimes receive great truth in their heads that their hearts are not ready to receive.
Truth is good; people not always.

12/31/19 SAME NAME, LOST FAME
Sad when you research a fellow believer but find someone with the same name who is not actually aligned with God's word.

Sad when supposed "Christian" singers, speakers, preachers are actually deviant.
Got talent from God, then they got away from God.

IN THE EYE OF THE STORM (song)
12/31/19 IN THE EYE OF THE STORM (song)
If you are going to follow Jesus in 2020, you are going to face trials, suffer losses, be betrayed.
But if you do follow Jesus, He will keep you safe, IN THE EYE OF THE STORM (with lyrics).
I don't know the singer, but the words are really good.

12/31/19 IT SEEMS SIMPLE TO ME
I would rather have lived in USA (even) under the Obama Administration than any Islamic, Socialistic, Atheistic country in the world (but I am glad Obama and his ilk are not leading us now).
Likewise I would rather live in the USA under the Trump Administration than any Liberal, Anti-American, Anti-Bible party that clamors for position (even though I do not always agree with Trump's policies and I never agree with his un-Christian words and actions).
Get ready to vote. This election may be your last chance to vote, for holding on to what remains of our freedom.

12/31/19 SEAFARING VIEW OF SALVATION
12/31/19 SEAFARING VIEW OF SALVATION
You can't "SAIL ON" if you're
Wandering in the village,
Standing on the pier,
Staying tied to the dock.
SHOVE OFF from the world,
GET ON BOARD the Old Ship of Zion,
WEIGH ANCHOR, and
SAIL ON.
I hope you like this song. The lyrics are shown in this video.
Do like I do; put on your sea legs, and sing your way to HEAVENS SHORE.
When working on sport fishing boats I would often stand on the after deck, looking astern, singing praises. The engines were loud, so my soft singing was not audible to others. Often I would be alone at the stern, which made it like a private worship time. Sometimes there was rain or even thunder and lightening, and I would stand out there, alone with God, singing and crying and praising.
Our spiritual journey ought to be filled with personal praise, worship, singing time with the Lord. We can do it from memory or with the radio or a disc or online with videos. We really ought to be singing God's praises.

The message of God's deliverance does not appeal to the person who has grown accustomed to living in the pigsty.

Our world is in a mess.
Most families and individuals are in a mess.
Until God cleans and manages our life, it will get worse.

12/31/19 POWERED BY PERFECT LOVE
12/31/19 POWERED BY PERFECT LOVE
Christians are powered by perfect love:
for God (Father, Son, Holy Spirit),
His word,
other people (family, friends foes).
An original DLG poem (from the 1960s) , appropriate for the New Year.
(with Background, Poem, Imagery Explained & Personal Challenge, copied from my 2015 Blog).
BACKGROUND
In the late 60's a hurricane threatened Carteret County. Just before it was suppose to hit I ventured out on the Sportsman's Fishing Pier (Atlantic Beach). While standing there, God gave me a poem. The night was like pitch, the wind was howling, the pier was shuddering as the waves pulled at its underside and crashed against its pilings. The only lights were the white caps reflecting the lights reaching out from the shore.
POEM
Staring out at the deep dark sea,
Arouses thoughts that challenge me,
To shove my Bark through the crashing waves,
And reach a land that my spirit craves.
In spite of dark and tossing brine,
And chills that grip this mortal spine,
My soul cries out for that waiting shore,
Where wind and wave offend no more.
Though darkness and the strength of hell,
Are bound up in each rising swell,
My chart and compass point above,
I'm steered and powered by perfect love.
IMAGERY EXPLAINED
The sea is the life, darkened by sin, corruption, temptation, loss and suffering.
A barque is a type of sail boat.
Heaven is the desired destination.
Each test, each trial, each temptation is meant to intimidate the believer, but it only sets our resolve.
The recurring testing of life is each ground "swell."
The Chart is the Bible.
The Compass is the Holy Spirit.
Perfect love is the life of Entire Sanctification lived in the power of the Holy Spirit.
PERSONAL CHALLENGE
God intends for us to be victorious in the trials of life. I hope you attend a church that teaches and preaches that Christ is greater than any problem you will ever have; that where sin did abound, grace did much more abound; that Jesus came to save us from our sins; that the blood of Christ cleanses from all sin; that God always leads us in triumph; that the Holy Spirit bears holy fruit in our lives and thereby bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.

12/30/19 FACT CHECK YOUR SOURCES
150+ yrs. USA allowed northern academics & renowned "scientists" to undermine Christians. Now they are perverting our children.
If you don't know this truth, it is not my fault. If you choose to deny this truth, stick your head back in the dirt and let your kids be defiled; body, soul, spirit, morals, values, honesty, common sense, Biblical revelation, Christian truth.

Danger runs the roads.
Be aware everywhere (especially bridges, narrow roads i.e. 101, east 70).
We want you home again, safe.
