A Rework

Leave a comment

As the title reads, I am offering tonight a rework of a post from 2012. 
And to be honest I will confess I am still working on this BUT I have made progress. :)

Here’s the edited post:

Truth.
I did other stuff yesterday and did not write, so you got no post in your email boxes this morning.
And then last night I was so outdone with a Public Figure and Facebook that I did not write; actually, I am so outdone with our President that I did not even watch his speech.
I suppose you could say since I don’t get to tell him what I think, I don’t want to hear what he has to say.  One-sided conversations are so frustrating!
Have y’all found that to be true too?

Too often I catch myself having an internal conversation with folks who will never hear what I would so like to say. It does me no good or them.
So why do I do it?
Flesh.
That’s the honest truth.
But admitting it to you is helpful and Father GOD and I are working on it.  :) 

Accountability.

Such a good thing!

I’d like to spread that around! Oops.  Not going there. :)  It’s a dead-end road.

Shall I share a Scripture and post this???

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” Philippians 4:8 KJV

via BibleGateway.com: A searchable online Bible in over 100 versions and 50 languages..

That was easy. I opened my online Bible and there it was at my fingertips.
Father GOD is so funny sometimes, so tender and loving even with discipline. 
Do y’all find that to be true too?

Thank You, Father.  I love you for loving me. Thank You for each of our Readers too.  Are we doing all that You want us to do as a group?
If we are not, would You lay it on our hearts to do more as a unit?
Would You give us discernment and direction on how we can make You known and alleviate some of this world’s suffering in JESUS’ name?
Thank You, Father.

There is LIGHT for the Darkness + + +

I have not given you a copy and paste for — well, I don’t know how long, but a long while. So today I am. 

This repost is dated May 18, 2007. It was 2007 when I began to write here at The White Stone blog.  I hope you enjoy this copy and paste from 14 years ago. 

DEVOTION for Friday, May 18, 2007

Be Prepared. When you ask Father a question, He WILL answer you!!
And that question can be something technical, even a concept about website building that you do not understand; something that try as hard as you may you just cannot figure it out.
He may not answer you though when you are sitting at the computer. It may be long after you have closed out the screen, powered-down, and shut off the light.
It may be the morning after you have been sleeping soundly but for some reason you are awake a couple hours before the alarm, you get up, stumble into the bathroom, and boom… all of a sudden it is perfectly clear!
He has answered you! But it’s too early to go test it. So you go back to bed, go back to sleep – smiling!

Yes, when you ask Father a question – He WILL answer you! He may not answer you when you think He should and it may not be in the place you thought He would… certainly not at 3:05 a.m. in the bathroom when your discussion with Him was at the office, two days before.
No, that would not be my ideal time or place! But you know what? HE ANSWERED!
So who am I to argue with Him?! And yes I have tested it and it worked beautifully!

So, give Him time to get you to the place where you can receive His answer to your question.
There is no doubt; He knew the answer to my question from eternity past. Yes, long before computers and website building programs were given to the mind of men, Father knew all about them, all the answers to all the questions to ever be asked.
Why would He wait until 3:05 a.m. to answer me?
I don’t know and that one He may not answer until eternity future – no matter. He is my Father and my God and He LOVES ME!

So! Have you asked Him a question He has not answered yet? He will… just as soon as He gets you to your 3:05 a.m. Remember… He is YOUR Father and YOUR God and HE LOVES YOU!

Psalm 143: 1 Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness. (KJV) [source]

Whatever the question – whatever the prayer – whatever the circumstance, remember:

Psalm 69: 12 They who sit in [the city’s] gate talk about me, and I am the song of the drunkards.

13 But as for me, my prayer is to You, O Lord. At an acceptable and opportune time, O God, in the multitude of Your mercy and the abundance of Your loving-kindness hear me, and in the truth and faithfulness of Your salvation answer me.
14 Rescue me out of the mire, and let me not sink; let me be delivered from those who hate me and from out of the deep waters. (Amplified Bible) [source]

“True prayer is simply a quiet, sincere, genuine conversation with God. It is a two-way dialogue between friends.” W. Phillip Keller

HIS MINISTRY TO YOU

Give Me A Second

Leave a comment

How long ago are 9 years and why do I ask?
Give me a second. :)

Nine years ago my grandson who is now the Father of a 3-year-old and a 5-month-old was himself a seventeen-year-old, finishing his Junior year of high school. 

Wow!

Nine years ago I was prompted to write a post following a conversation about ‘don’t judge me’. 
I wrote another one today prompted by a Facebook post.  (A New Story)
Obviously, we are still dancing around that mulberry bush.

Here’s the start to that May 4, 2012 post:

Matthew 7: King James Version (KJV)
7 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
via Matthew 7:1-3 KJV – Judge not, that ye be not judged. For – Bible Gateway.

I participated, mostly as a reader, in a Facebook conversation today (Thursday). It is that conversation that prompts me to present this verse to you for this fine Friday morning.

For sure, for sure I smell the hot breath of hell every time today’s cultural interpretation of this verse is thrown as a trump card on the conversation table. Hear me! Such usage of this verse is nothing more than a ploy from the abyss aimed to silence those who know the truth about sin, hell, and eternal life.

Great day in the morning! as my Tennessee family has said.  READ the BIBLE! All of it! In CONTEXT! The WHOLE COUNSEL of GOD warns me that I better tell folks that JUDGMENT has come already upon them if they have NOT believed the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST.
