White Supremacy, white privilege, Black Lives Matter, Antifa, KKK, Black Panthers…ect, ect, ect…..
All groups full of hate.
What to do? Have we strayed so far from God, we are doomed?
Has the Godless left won?
Is our youth, so intellectually challenged, that they do not recognize how foolish it is to try to erase history?
Our esteemed Governor, Roy Cooper has jumped on the band wagon, he would remove all the Confederate Statues to museums….
STOP THIS MADNESS…. STOP IT, STOP IT, STOP IT….
You cannot change history. If you forget it, you are bound to repeat it.
There is much in my life, I am ashamed of. There is much, I wish, that I never had thought of doing, never mind having done.
But, it is done. I was a fool, who did foolish things that hurt others and myself. I am sorry for my failures, my mistakes, my SINS.
They happened. I cannot deny them. They are part of my History. A History that cannot be changed.
It can only be regretted, repented of, and denied the opportunity to occur again.
A changed heart and mind are required.
Why are we so offended by inanimate objects?
While we are not offended, by the disregard of our laws? Public property, destroyed, of thinking, if we do not see it, it never happened.
Pulling down statutes, does not erase the truth they represent.
Quit acting like ignorant 14th century people.
We must learn from our past. Make a better future.
Quit repeating the horrors we are trying to erase.
Lord, come soon. Amen

The cleansing of the Temple, my house is a house of prayer, not a den of thieves.
In the midst, of throwing out the thieves, He found those needing a touch from Him.
“The blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.”
The scribes and priests, saw this… and were displeased. Why?
They were not the center of attention. Jesus, went about doing good, free, for real. The religious were not happy.
Those He touched, lifted praise to the King. We need to lift praise, accept His touch, share His love.
Perfect Praise, is realizing, His Power and Love.
12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
15 And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased,
16 And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?
Matthew 20:29-34 Mark 10:46-52
Luke 18:35-43
Once again Jesus going to where people had needs.
Blind men calling to Him…. When rebuked by the crowd called even more.
It is interesting, Jesus, did not go to them, but called them to come to Him.
We must come to Jesus, He is always there, just out of our way. He doesn’t interfere in our life’s choices, freewill is always available.
He allows us to choose wrong, or right. We reap the reward of our choices. Notice, they were specific, when asked their desire.
That my eyes be opened, that I would receive my sight.
That is a prayer we need to pray for the world. That our eyes be opened. That we would see into the spiritual realm. That we would understand His love.
Immediately they could see.
When we come to the Lord, (we must leave our sinful nature and desires behind), when we come, ready to believe and obey, we find ourselves healed, set free, and forgiven.
If we would just learn how to enter the Holy of Holies, we would live, lives of answered prayers.
Matthew 20:29-34 (KJV)
29 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.
30 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.
31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.
32 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?
33 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.
34 So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.
Mark 10:46-52 (KJV)
46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.
49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
Luke 18:35-43 (KJV)
35 And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:
36 And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.
37 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
39 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.
40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,
41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.
42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.
43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.
No this is not about the Song of Solomon.
It’s not really even a song. It is a lament, a cry, a stirring of the soul.
A dirge.
Sorrowful, yet empty,
painful, yet pure.
A groaning, that cannot be uttered.
A desire that cannot be fulfilled.
A wound, that will not heal.
Dissatisfied, disappointed, disturbed, destroyed…. decimated.
Hope Lost, and Hopeless.
Yet; Understanding that, in Truth, I am:
FORGIVEN, I AM, BLAMELESS, MY SIN AND SHAME, IS AS FAR AWAY, AS THE EAST IS FROM THE WEST.
I AM COVERED BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB, I AM SAVED BY THE GREAT I AM.
The word of God, brings hope, that isn’t seen, causes faith to grow, opens the eyes of our understanding.
If Abram, at 75, began, his walk before the Lord, and became a friend of God.
If Moses, at 80, met the Trinity, walked in the ways of the Lord, and talked to the Lord, face to face like a man to a friend.
If Enoch, at 65, walked with God for 300 years, and was not, because God took him.
It is possible that Bill, at 64, in time, may be noticed and useful to God.
It is possible, a life has not been wasted.
The last, will be better then the first.
The future much brighter, than the past.
The Mountain, removed and the path made straight.
The Gospel of the Lord proclaimed, the lost, saved, the sick healed, the brokenhearted, comforted.
The Glory of our King Revealed.
My cry?
Come, Lord Jesus, Come.

Isaiah: 6:1-3
“In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.”

This is the one song, I wrote and remember. We were on the road, (“The Able Messengers”), set to visit a mens and a womans prisons.
I used to be able to sing it… not so much anymore… lol

Isaiah: 53:2-6. (Not in order) lol
“we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
He is despised and rejected of men;
a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him;
there is no beauty that we should desire him.
“For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
