In 1987 God woke me on a friday morning, an audible voice spoke to me, as I sat up in bed that morning. Choices for Life or Death. It's a Long story and I plan to one day soon give my testimony of how God revealed to me His great love. A long Journey home....
I'll begin today in 1992, Shortly after returning back to my hometown (Beaufort, SC) I was a NewBorn Christian, with God's love shining on my Life. The revelation of what I had been given so far shining in my Heart, and Changing me daily. However I was not where God wanted me yet. The last 4 years of my life had been a real struggle to overcome years of "Life in the FastLane" .
God had truly Begun a work in me. There were family members and Friends along the way that had been a shining light in my life. Showing me that there was much to know about His World and the Kingdom to Come. Showers of Blessings..... and the Manna fell, One Light after another, raining down around me, Signs, slowly yet constantly guiding me to THIS Truth that He has revealed in my Life. Thank You lord!
One Spring Morning tho, a plumbing truck pulled up into the Parking Lot of the New Auto Body Repair buiseness I was opening. God had brought an Angel into my Life. Unkowing of what the future held or what would become of the meeting of this NEW friend meant in my Life! A Light, a beacon of God's Word and the Light that shined from this Life .... I knew there was something More!
Happy Birthday to my Light in the Darkness, Bro Kevin Keith! The Journey that God brought us through was long, riddled with both Pain, Sorrows, Defeats and Victories! I truly Love this Guy, and I thank the Lord daily for his testimony and witness of a God that cares and Loves and a truth that shall bring me to a body change!
There is so very much to say and tell about this part of my life, and how God used this Brother to bring me to this day in my life, and in time I pray, if the Lord tarries I will share it all. But, today, I wanna say with all my Heart! I love you Bro Kevin, May you have a most awesome Birthday. Filled with all the blessings that Our Lord can shower upon you and your family!
God Bless You!
You Tell on Yourself by the friends you seek,
By the very manner in which you speak,
By the way you employ your leisure time,
By the use you make of dollar and dime.
You tell what you are by the things you wear,
By the Spirit in which your burdens bear,
By the kind of things at which You laugh,
By the records you play on your phonograph.
You tell what you are by the way you walk,
By the things of which you delight to talk,
By the manner in which you bear defeat,
By so simple a thing as how you eat.
By the books you choose from a well-filled shelf,
In these ways and more you tell on yourself,
So there is really no particular sense
In an effort to keep up false pretense,
You tell on Yourself.

........... Not a clue really in what we are called to be as Christians in this day.And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. ................... Every Word! Not just those our Doctrines & creeds Pick and Choose, Not just those the world would call Inspired, Not just those that theological preachers and teachers throw out so commonly and use to excuse their own short comings and weaknesses to those they are Leading!
26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
Our plans sort of fell thru for this evening with the bad weather, we just felt checked to postpone things and reschedule for another night. All is well though. I'm really not sure if there's anything better or greater than a quiet evening at home alone with your Wife! Thank You Lord for my Wife and the Life you planted in me before the foundations of the world. Just relaxing, chatting, and contemplating the upcoming services with my Bestest Friend; My Rib: Lisa!
To Him the Honor, Praise and Glory!
Good Morning ...
Well it's a rather drab looking day outside the window this morning. I'm Praying for better weather than they're forecasting for the weekend though. As for myself, I've had my fill of the Snow and Ice for this year. I'm ready for Spring! Ready to experience the awakening of the lands, to once again see God spring forth from the roots of His creation.
I was talking with a very dear brother from South Carolina this morning and it amazed me that our thoughts and feelings of current events were of the same thought line. Spring... a time in which the manifestation of God's Creation is being Revealed. Exposure, the life coming forth, the roots producing that which was/is in the seed.
It's an anxious time we live in. Create in Me a Clean Heart !!
God Bless
Last night as we were fellowshiped and talked, as usual our conversation began to center around the Lord and what He's done in our lives. Oh how grateful that He thought of me, often times I wonder why? I began to dig up some of my old blog-sites and posts from previous sites I've written on. I really do enjoy sharing and discussing what the Lord is doing in this day. Even better than that though, I love talking about how He has changed my Life!
So take a walk with me, Let's talk a bit.... God Bless
