“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
― Edmund Burke
Mark 10:18 (TLV)18 “Why do you call Me good?” Yeshua said to him. “No one is good except One—that is God.source
Acts 10:38 (KJV)38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.source
Philippians 4:13 (KJV)13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.source
1 Corinthians 3:9 (KJV) 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.source
All this considered, what would your take away counsel be?
I was standing in the back yardand I said: “I love this place.” And no voice did I hear but gently on the screen of mind came this: “If you think you love this place, just wait till you get home.”
1 Corinthians 2:9 (NKJV)9 But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”source
Did the Holy Spirit of GOD speak those words to me this morning or was it just me – wishful thinking? The day will come that I will know but until then Scripture says it’s true.
John 14:2 (TLV) 2 In My Father’s house there are many dwelling places. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?source
Perhaps you would take a moment or two and allow Him to reveal from His Word what He has prepared for you.

The invitational song in part was ‘we cry holy, holy, holy is the Lamb’ and I stopped singing; questions were coming.
Do we? Do we cry holy, holy, holy is the Lamb with our walk as well as our singing? Does the day-to-day living I do cry holy, holy, holy is the Lamb? Do the places I go, or don’t get around to going, say He is holy to me? Do the movies I see, do the books (magazines, websites) I read, do the clothes I wear, do the foods I eat and the beverages I drink, do the thought trains I ride say He is holy, holy, holy to me?
It’s been a few hours now since we all left the church-house and I’m still pondering these questions. And it seems to me these questions could quickly get a body sent to an accusatory corner with legalism ringing in her ears. How does one draw the line between legalism and carnality? And if we refuse to draw that line between the two can we really say, holy, holy, holy is the Lamb to me?
This is heavy! And it’s not easy to leave us on such a heavy note but the song does say He is full of mercy and love – – – and He is.
We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
