Pleasant speech multiplies friends, and gracious lips, friendly greetings. Let those who are friendly to you be many, but one in a thousand your confidant. When you gain friends, gain them through testing, and do not be quick to trust them. For there are friends when it suits them, but they will not be around in time of trouble. Sirach 6: 5-8

From the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother [and be joined to his wife], and the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two but one flesh. Mark 10: 6-8

Sirach 6:5-17, Psalm 119 & Mark 10:1-12

Friendship is an easy feeling to give away but hard to find in Truth to become more than a conversational piece to others relying not on the act of “being there” for another but the act of gossip leading to untruths. God reminds us today that we must be forthcoming in joy towards others gaining friends of existence but there will be only “one in a thousand” who you’ll be able to trust and call upon for anything at any time in any situation who you’ll call friends for life.

We are friends as Americans for we love our “Land of the Free” while we smear the lives of people across every news outlet known to society bringing discredit, dishonor and disgrace upon innocent people in the name of news. Take care in the circles of Spirituality to find friends of God’s Truth and not the untruths people will spread without real evidence, real reason or real love.

Treasure that “one in a thousand” as the joy your heart beats with not for as the surrender your life completes is what each of you live for. It wasn’t until I said yes to Who we live for I didn’t enjoy a friendship of two uniting hearts only linking loins of pleasure creating the chatter I chastised my soul for until finding the Salvation from Christ Jesus. Now I live with my Soul-Mate in Christ Toni donning the submission of living for the Truth. We live in love of God as One seeking no one to shun helping those as we can sharing Christ’s Charity by His Divine Life Plan.

People will always talk about you and your mistakes but it is God Who forgives you by your repentance as His Child of God. Finding the “Soul-Mate” of Christ takes a commitment of practice, prayer and proclaiming as One for His faith, hope and love inundating your friends with His infectious love. Open the door for your mate not just in the buildings you visit but the car you trust for travels needs. Open the Good Book together seeking not the pleasures of self but the surrender to Christ’s Seed. Open the kneeler and pray next to one another placing your hand on their shoulder in prayer succumbing to the Spirit as One. Open your heart and soul for love giving charity as God’s Divine Will never to shun. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to test our friends to find the one in a thousand You LORD promise will always be there. Toni I love you. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has our constant prayers. Day eight of a novena prayers for Roxy. Day seven of a novena of prayers for Sal, Melina and Page. Novena prayers in day seven for Sue’s healing LORD.

Mouth of kindness
Don’t despair
Gracious lips for enemies
Greeting friends care

Many be the acquaintances
One in a thousand to dare
Trusting your heart with fidelity
Testing them to know they care

Some friends are suitors
They never seem to really share
Not with you in time of distress
They try to catch you in a snare

Some may befriend to spite
The friendship you began to stare
They begin to quarrel for shame
Others leave you in sorrows spare

Some remain as things go well
Leaving upon getting nothing fair
Turns against you opposing grace
Stay away from enemies lying flair

Guard your hearts with God’s Protection
A life-saving remedy He offers to care
For in this friend we find the Maker
Behave accordingly fearing God together’s pair

Do not rely on your strength in following the desires of your heart. Do not delay turning back to the LORD, do not put it off day after day. For suddenly His Wrath will come forth; at the time of vengeance, you will perish. Sirach 5:2, 7

God will either embrace your soul in peace or perish you to the Devil’s Den of Gehenna?

Do not rely on your strength in following the desires of your heart. Do not delay turning back to the LORD, do not put it off day after day. For suddenly His Wrath will come forth; at the time of vengeance, you will perish. Sirach 5:2, 7

Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward. Mark 5:41

Sirach 5:1-8, Psalm 1 & Mark 9:41-50

God is asking us to rely not on our own strength in following the desires of the heart but the strength that comes forth from the Truth in God’s Word illuminating the beauty of faith allowing grace to pour forth from our fervent prayer instituting His Love by the charity in proclamation as much in speaking as action to accomplish the Power of Peace. Ultimately, His Wrath will snub your last breath meeting Him face-to-face laying every instance of your life in front of you both. God gives us freedom here and now in heaven on earth by the surrender you give God now in communion with the desires of your heart for His Purpose speaking to Him the love of liberty freeing your soul in Christ’s confession of Truth in His Salvation.

Your heart’s desire must be that of Christ’s desire to clean the sin of yearnings past from a heart of self for in His Judgment He will either embrace your soul in absolute peace or perish you to the Devil’s Den of “Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire.” God brought to the world His Son as One to teach us that it is “better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna, where ‘their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.’” Mark 9:43c I have learned that sin cannot be quenched by the appetite of overindulgence but by the water of God’s Only Son clean and refreshing the soul to accomplish works of compassion, courage and charity. I find this daily in my study in every second of every day talking with God praying for courage to live His life of charity living compassion as I travel for Him and not myself.

A child recently shared their prayers of conversation with God telling me he prays for me as I pray for him. God tells me the child is compassionate with mounting courage wanting charity as actions proof serving Christ’s cool water to those who are thirsty, feeding the hungry when tears of starvation rain, clothing the homeless who are naked from sin’s sanity, visiting the sick as you teach the Salvation of Christ’s love. “Amen, I say to you, (you) will surely not lose (your) reward,” my Brother in Christ- my little Child of God. Amen.

His flames might come forth forgetting to pray- Sirach 5:1-8

Find not the wealth in reliance
Of God’s love your defiance
Saying not I have power of guidance
By the money my heart’s desire compliance

Do not say “who can prevail against me?”
Never to be subdued by your deeds
God will exact punishment to see
He is the One Who eternally feeds

Beware of saying I have sinned but nothing did occur
Biding His Time the Most High has observed
Be not overconfident in forgiveness by your slurs
Sin-upon-sin adding to a life filled with blurs

God’s anger and His mercy are one in the same
Anger comes from sinning unless you abstain
From sin for mercy to gain eternal life in His Name
Alighting His Wrath comes from sin’s wicked game

Your conversion should not delay
Do not put it off day-after-day
His flames might come forth forgetting to pray
Deceitful wealth can’t help His Wrath you will pay

Those who love her love life; those who seek her out win the LORD’s favor. Those who hold her fast will attain glory, and they shall abide in the blessing of the LORD. Those who serve her serve the Holy One; those who love her the LORD loves. Sirach 4: 12-14

John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in Your Name, and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow us.” Jesus replied, “Do not prevent him. There is no one who performs a mighty deed in My Name who can at the same time speak ill of Me. For whoever is not against us is for us.” Mark 9:38-40

Sirach 4:11-19, Psalm 119 & Mark 9:38-40

Wisdom seems like a far reach for some but can only be earned over time indulged in study submitted to every test. I remember as a child my mother watching me as we watched television one night pointing out the beauty by which God had given me in the little quirks if you will of moving toes or brandished birth moles of beauty sharing wisdom with me as we talked about life, lessons and love producing wisdom that carries throughout all my years. I am more appreciative of it now than I ever was by what both my parents instilled in me as well as being conscious of what their bloodline handed down to me from centuries past.

Here, we find her, wisdom, the love of God’s favor holding fast to the Glory of Truth abiding in His Blessing serving the Holy One with love. I miss this with my own children as they grow into their years separated by mistakes of sin’s past praying like all parents for the health, harmony and help your own bloodline represents and needs will be guided by Christ’s love of faith, hope and love of charity performing mighty deeds by His Precious Redemptive Name of Truth. My prayer is constant for all of my family but especially of these, my children, that we may grow into our years gaining the wisdom of age by God’s Glory of Truth. Amen.

Knowing her love finds God’s favor seed
Willing to fight but never to concede

Holding fast to her glory by the rights of He
Embraced by the LORD blessings for free
Serving wisdom naturally serves the LORD degree

Failing her will have her abandon lest you squeal
Into the hands of despoilers will be your eternal meal

My child, when you come to serve the LORD, prepare yourself for trials. Be sincere of heart and steadfast, and do not be impetuous in time of adversity. Cling to Him, do not leave Him, that you may prosper in your last days. Accept whatever happens to you; in periods of humiliation be patient. Sirach 2:1-4

The trials of life are set before you to gain wisdom void of worry.

My child, when you come to serve the LORD, prepare yourself for trials. Be sincere of heart and steadfast, and do not be impetuous in time of adversity. Cling to Him, do not leave Him, that you may prosper in your last days. Accept whatever happens to you; in periods of humiliation be patient. Sirach 2:1-4

Then He sat down, called the Twelve, and said to them, “If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all.” Taking a child He placed it in their midst, and putting His arms around it He said to them, “Whoever receives one child such as this in My Name, receives Me; and whoever receives Me, receives not Me but the One Who sent Me.” Mark 9:35-37

Sirach 2:1-11, Psalm 37 & Mark 9:30-37

The trials of life are set before you to gain wisdom void of worry seeking not sin but Salvation from the Truth lasting in havoc by the Heaven we look up to living in peace by God’s Purpose. Here, we must learn to “be sincere of heart and steadfast undisturbed in time of adversity” clinging to God through His Word, His established prayers and His Spirit-led proclamation of His Everlasting Truth. There will be times that humiliation will come from outside forces as well as inner decisions that cause you great shame where it may seem God has left your side but He is there even then when bad decisions cause embarrassing positions where God seemingly lifts your pants after being dropped in public. Be patient and productive for Christ’s Charity and the Will of God will overshadow the desperation seen in disgrace.

We have been pushed to be first by the forces of secular living not embracing the Word of God but the desires of a heart filled with competition not grace enjoying excess not fate. Jesus points out the peace of a child asking for enlightenment by a growing brain living with such humility allowing the beauty of Truth instilling not the competitiveness of being first but the charity of being last lifting the joy felt by helping not hurting loving not languished in a sincere heart granted by God’s grace. Receive them with Christ’s Arms of Salvation and see the modesty, meekness and mastery of Truth. I felt this pull from God to live as a teacher of His Children watching in awe as the forces of Truth allow each to grow and sustain a heart craving faith, hope and love of Truth. Amen.

All wisdom is from the LORD and remains with Him forever. Sirach 1:1

Wigs Word of God Today 5-20-2013

Grow away from God’s Truth grow away from wisdom granted only by God.

All wisdom is from the LORD and remains with Him forever. Sirach 1:1

When He entered the house, His Disciples asked Him in private, “Why could we not drive it out?” He said to them, “This kind can only come out through prayer.” Mark 9:28-29

Sirach 1:1-10, Psalm 93 & Mark 9:14-29

Once upon a time there was a boy who thought everything he learned gave him the needs to be everything he could accomplish until one day it dawned on him God was the reason for everything and therefore he stood in the midst of wisdom not on his own accord but that of the Truth granted by the Author of Life. The Law of God is Divine lasting not on the directions, decisions and destiny’s of mankind’s thoughts or desires but that of the Omnipotence of God’s Everlasting ability to resurrect your soul to serve with wisdom granted only by He Who Created all.

This wisdom was granted to Christ for He was the visible opportunity to see God face-to-face depending on the Father as a child craving the growth of his body, mind and soul not for His own purpose but that of God’s wisdom to forgive sin. Those who grow away from God’s Truth grow away from wisdom granted only by God to becoming learnt on their own accord void of God’s presence. The unclean Spirit of the boy would only come out by trusting God can do all things and this is accomplished by fervent prayer, fasting and complete reliance on God’s Power in the Name Christ Jesus. We must learn to trust by training our desires to tackle everything in His Precious Name. Amen.

When He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.” John 20:22-23

Fear of the LORD forming the gifts of the Spirit as God’s Knight of Charity’s use.

To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit. To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit; to another mighty deeds; to another prophecy; to another discernment of spirits; to another varieties of tongues; to another interpretation of tongues. First Corinthians 12:7-10

When He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.” John 20:22-23

Acts 2:1-11, Psalm 103, First Corinthians 12:3-13 & John 20:19-23

The Church across the globe celebrates Pentecost Sunday 50 days after Resurrection Sunday inundating those who believe with the gifts of the spirit that include seven graces from God if you will of God’s sanctification for His Son to live within us the seven gifts of counsel, courage, knowledge, piety, understanding, wisdom and fear of the LORD forming God’s Knight of Charity’s use. I will live this knighthood by practice, prayer and preaching of God’s Word helping those to sharpen the swords of Salvation’s Truth donning the capes of glistening fortitude aligning with His Will living not in pity but piety for Christ’s Sake. The practice of true reverence lost seemingly long ago of fasting and praying from our knees will continue to be lost while the aching of humanity’s soul continues pushing Christ aside for self-indulgence.

We sometimes have a hard time understanding what gift the Spirit has given us as we wonder from one thing to another until it hits us over the head like a ton of bricks on a sunny day. You’ll know it is given to you by God when it makes a difference to someone or many a person in such a way that you feel His presence and joy allowing first fruits to be displayed wonderfully in a complete surrender to His Purpose. Here, in this moment I believe it is imperative to Consecrate and Sanctify your life to living for Him and Him alone forgoing statements of “what will you give me God” to utterings of “what can I do for you God” seeking only faith in His Salvation exuding prayers of forgiveness sharing His Word by more than just speaking but action, accountability and acceptance submerged in dialogue annulled of anger, aggression and avoidance.

We make God the action we live in our study not ashamed of the Good Book taking it with you in thoughts from practice placing your hands across it during the day for inspiration, comfort and peace. This action leads to living accountable for God consecrating everything we live for in the Name of Jesus Christ. It’s about you and God not others thoughts or opinions. It is your relationship of surrender and obedience not to your boss, childhood friends or the car you drive by the job you lust but the love of faith, hope and love being accountable to grace. The acceptance of this surrender rids your life of self-willed interests or judgmental opinions of disapproving beliefs allowing God’s Son of Salvation to live in the Father’s Divine Will leaving judgment where life begins and ends in Divinity’s Hand. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to live the Spirit by the fruits we sweat for humanity’s love of Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers.

Let it be known to you that this Salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen. With complete assurance and without hindrance he proclaimed the Kingdom of God and taught about the LORD Jesus Christ. Acts 28:28, 31

Wigs Word of God Today 5-18-2013

Embrace all with Jesus charity judging not the sinner but sharing the Salvation of sin.

Let it be known to you that this Salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen. With complete assurance and without hindrance he proclaimed the Kingdom of God and taught about the LORD Jesus Christ. Acts 28:28, 31

There are also many other things that Jesus did, but if these were to be described individually, I do not think the whole world would contain the books that would be written. John 21:25

Acts 28:16-31, Psalm 11 & John 21:20-25

Our study of the Book of Acts comes to subtle ending with Paul explaining the Prophets of Old description of Salvation was fulfilled by the LORD Jesus Christ over and over again convincing some but confusing others as even Paul fulfills the Prophesy of Isaiah from chapter 6:6-9 describing with such Spirit-led accuracy and Authority the Truth of Salvation God had brought to the world as described by He amongst the bearers of witness from the beginning of time.

“Some were convinced by what he had said, while others did not believe. Without reaching any agreement among themselves they began to leave; then Paul made one final statement. “Well did the Holy Spirit speak to your ancestors through the prophet Isaiah, saying: ‘Go to this people and say: You shall indeed hear but not understand. You shall indeed look but never see. Gross is the heart of this people; they will not hear with their ears; they have closed their eyes, so they may not see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and be converted, and I heal them.’” Acts 28:24-27

Paul has a lot of convincing to do establishing the First Church amongst the gentiles would be as challenging as the Jews laying the Divine Foundation for Christ’s Resurrection to now as described by Christ where “the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against It.” We will prevail by the Promise established by God for he who believes in the Son of Salvation. We will speak and some will not hear while even when the do listen the will not understand keeping us focused on prayer and surrender without judgment loving all as Commanded by Jesus Himself for the Works of Christ could never fill all “that would be written.”

When I think about prayer and surrender to a Way of Christ, I think of serving the less to see more engaging pity by His Purpose noticing not sin but Salvation’s grace all should feel by the love of Christ’s Charity we lovingly seal in our hearts and souls by obedience to Deliverance by God’s Destiny for all mankind imprisoned but free radical diseased. I find Jesus more in the eyes of the homeless, hungry and hurt as much as I find His beaming Spirit from the eyes of the imprisoned held behind the gates of mistakes in society’s fulfillment of God’s Decrees. My poem today reflects the love of Christ we bring to the prisoners in South Florida’s Kairos Prison Ministry from our monthly reunion we experienced last night.

Please join me in praying for a 9-year-old little girl to know her daddy’s heart of love and protection as well as his own Walk in the LORD’s love these next nine days. Please also join me in praying for a man in blue whose description of the tears expressed last night he felt when given his first Bible grasping Freedom in the walls sentenced by sin. Behind the walls of punishment to the darkness of living on the streets of God He asks us to embrace all with His charity judging not the sinner but sharing the Salvation of sin. Amen.

Jesus allows Peter to admit his love for Jesus not once, not twice but three times to set the record straight for denying Jesus three times after His arrest. Many Biblical Scholars agree that here in John and Matthew is when Jesus gave Peter authority over the whole flock in commissioning the Church and it guidelines by Christ’s own words in Matthew 16:18-19, “And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this Rock I will build My Church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”

Here, we find the Church built strong and centered on Christ’s Salvation to further hope in love, instill faith in peace and live the charity of Eternal Life offered by Christ for all who, “at the Name of Jesus every knee should bend, of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD, to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:10-11 This is not to say even the Church will make mistakes for men not God still make decisions based upon earthly things when God only chooses Heavenly Truth. This Truth hurts sometimes and in the end corrects all faults by the Blood of His Son’s Cross.

We know that men make mistakes and run churches broke centered not on the Gospel of Christ Jesus but the stupid desires of the flesh wreaking havoc with pride displaying not the humility of Christ’s Truth. Yes, we all make mistakes but it how we surge forward in life to recognize the need for involvement spreading the joy of God’s Word established to offer faith and obedience to propel prayer whereby we give thanks to God for everything we think, say and accomplish to overcome desires of self tethered to the love of Christ recreated just like Peter in his confessed three times of love. We might deny Him but He opens His arms and receives you by His Grace of forgiveness. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray if we deny You LORD we repent quickly and hold on to Your Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. We begin a novena of healing for a friend’s wife named Roxy. LORD from Psalm 136:23 I chant- “The LORD remembered us in our low estate, for His mercy endures forever.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Ephesians 6:17-20

Simon Peter confessed his love three times to concede- John 21:15-19

Jesus reappeared to the Disciples to eat
A breakfast of fish feeding the meek
Forgiveness would instill Peter to seek
Asking do you love Me will be the order to speak

The son of John Peter would no longer deny
As Jesus asked, “Do you love Me?” in a cry
You know all things Peter said to Eternally vie
As again Jesus asked a second time to spy

The real love Peter had for the Savior inside
No longer running but building to abide
“Simon, son of John, do you love Me? to confide
Peter answered yes LORD You know that I love Your stride

Jesus wasn’t finished in His Will for Peter’s streak
A third time He would ask if His love will always reach
For Jesus as he climbs to build the Churches peak
When Jesus replied the third time tend and feed His sheep

Growing old younger times will be the memories you see
Dressing yourself was easy as one two and three
Soon they will dress you and lead you to be
The kind of death to glorify by succumbing to always follow Me

Simon Peter confessed his love three times to concede

Acts 22:30; 23:6-11, Psalm 16 & John 17:20-26

Jesus has just consecrated everything the Father had ever shared with Him as He wondered the land sharing God’s Truth in Word by giving us a New Covenant of Love forthcoming in forgiveness shouldering the untruths of the world preparing for the death He sought absorbing every ounce of humanity’s sin. The Disciples are described by some Biblical Scholars as listening from a far this discourse Jesus had with the Father Himself asking to allow all God had shown Him would be revealed to the them from within as Jesus asks the Father to make them One to accomplish the faith, hope and love of charity.

Jesus asks to be made known in you too overcoming your ever rushing world of self-pity in ways you can only imagine but will relish by the surrender you give to living for His Truth. Jesus shouldn’t be something you deny but celebrate in confidence in every decision you make joining with Him to become One as you should your spouse abiding in thoughts, actions and deeds for the Good Will of mankind. I was encouraged by this beauty of living for Christ this week by a 93-year-old woman who held my hand and prayed the Our Father with me enjoining me with Christ’s love instilling surrender to God’s Word. In Him I am ready for death without Him I am already dead. Amen.

Sometimes Jesus talked only with God
Praying aloud so the Disciples wouldn’t nod
A far they may say was Jesus praying to Him
Praying for Truth in the words they begin

Those who believe in their words find faith
They all become One with Love void of hate
As the Father is in Christ for us to relate
He asked we be in Them both as His Will of fate

The world will then believe You sent Me He said
Giving the glory the Father gave to Him instead
Of not sin and lying but Truth as they wed
Perfection only felt when you surrender your bed

The Father even loves You as He loved the Son
A gift to Jesus from the Father the ONLY One
Loved by Him before the world’s foundation was laid
God’s solution to forgiving sin by the Son Who paid

For all sins the Righteous Father even unknown He bled
In those who denied the Father or Christ Who fed
For Jesus made known the Father forgiveness instead
The Love of Him and His Son is in you He bred

In Him I am ready for death without Him I am already dead

Consecrate them in the Truth. Your Word is Truth. As You sent Me into the world, so I sent them into the world. And I consecrate Myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in Truth. John 17:17-19

Wigs Word of God Today 5-15-2013

Seeking riotousness avoiding debate creating dialogue absent of judgment and hate.

I know that after my departure savage wolves will come among you, and they will not spare the flock. And from your own group, men will come forward perverting the Truth to draw the disciples away after them. Now I commend you to God and to that gracious Word of His that can build you up and give you the inheritance among all who are consecrated. Acts 20: 29-30, 32

Consecrate them in the Truth. Your Word is Truth. As You sent Me into the world, so I sent them into the world. And I consecrate Myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in Truth. John 17:17-19

Acts 20:28-38, Psalm 68 & John 17:11-19

To live a life in Christ I believe as Jesus describes today as well as Paul who followed Christ’s own Way that we must “consecrate” everything about our lives to living in Truth for the sake of Christ’s Gospel. This really isn’t as tough at it may sound because the surrender comes from obeying every day the need to delve into the Word of God with fervent desire to practice what we preach unceasingly praying about everything we practice. I see consecrating your life to Christ as giving up selfish desires and replacing them with righteous desires of God in faith, hope and love living in charity.

It means to go as far as God tells you to and then some by avoiding men “perverting the Truth” devouring your soul like “savage wolves” enticing your good nature by their good looks, swift charm and enticing personality focusing not on the Gospel of God’s Only Son but that of what a mere man can do forgoing what Christ’s Blood has already done. By living the Life of Christ we come to know what it means to be Spirit-led God-inspired and Christ-fed in everything we do seeking riotousness avoiding debate creating dialogue absent of judgment and hate. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to consecrate everything about our lives to Your Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers.

As Scripture foretold as gave way to Your Plan
As I come to You to sit at Your Right Hand
Sharing my joy in the world as I speak candidly
Sharing what I’ve known from the beginning completely

Jesus gave us His Word to entail
A life of the Father none to curtail
The world hates His Word they eternally fail
Not belonging to this world Jesus wasn’t frail

None who believe belong to the world too
Please keep them from the Evil One’s deadly flu
The sickness of sin lacking what is True
Burning in hell the world boasts as proof

Truth is what we bind in His Word to see
God’s Word is Truth following Christ faithfully
Into the world He was sent to consecrate fully

This is My Commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. John 15:12-14

Acts 1:15-17, 20-26, Psalm 113 & John 15:9-17

The LORD asks us to be His friend by the life we lead for others obedient to His Truth laying down its purpose to share faith, hope and love as friend wanting nothing more than to see the fruits of love ignite the passion of Salvation. We discover the joy of giving when we truly give our all for Christ’s Purpose of living for the love of Truth. We can’t deny this need in every corner of the world by our love of sharing the Word of God in living as friends of Christ Jesus.

Many a time homeless people will say they have no way to repay me when I offer them clothes, food or a room to take a hot shower. People are so adamant about life’s needs by their costs instead of embracing the needs of existence by their courage of hard work, honest giving and faithful service to God’s Children allowing God’s love to encompass their lives of Truth. As Jesus said, “It was not you who chose Me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name He may give you.” Amen.

Laying down your life is the proper thing to do
You are Christ’s friend if you give to accomplish Truth
No longer a slave because you know as He abides to soothe

I have told you this so that you might have peace in Me. In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world. John 16:33

Wigs Word of God Today 5-13-2013

Living the peace Jesus speaks of with audacity of Truth’s journey.

Paul then said, “John baptized with a baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the One who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus.” When they heard this, they were baptized in the Name of the LORD Jesus. And when Paul laid [his] hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. Acts 19:3-6

I have told you this so that you might have peace in Me. In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world. John 16:33

Acts 19:1-8, Psalm 68 & John 16:29-33

More and more every day we take comfort in the One Who has conquered the world and lives amongst the languished, lost and lonely through the soul Baptized in His Name, namely you and me in the Spirit of God’s Truth enveloping fright with courage taking sight with love. We do “take courage” by His conquered proof laughing not at the losers of the world in judgment but enveloping tears of joy in the cleansing of Baptism living right by the Gospel of sight treasured in our hands walking across the lands.

Here, Jesus reminds us today we’ll find real peace in His guidance to live in faith, hope and love of His charity sharing His Spirit by laying hands on as many as you can in the chaos of daily routine living the peace Jesus speaks of with audacity of Truth’s journey. There is nothing that can stop Truth for Truth is God in everything we see touch and deploy with righteous joy. A young hearing impaired man who works at a Goodwill I frequent commented yesterday on my Cross saying, “Your Cross is beautiful- without God this world would be nothing.” God’s real peace in Christ’s silent Truth. Amen.

There’s no need to question Authority
Jesus came from God they believed reportedly

The Christ answered in understanding tone
You believe now was His response shown
He made them behold the hour untold
Scattered you places leaving Him alone

Jesus continued He’d never be alone or cold
The Father is with Him where Truth will be told
Telling them this to have peace to eternally hold
The world is trouble as they all will grow old

Courage you receive as the Christ did He’d say
Believe in Me He said to forever smell the Way
The roses of Salvation instead of living to pay

He led them [out] as far as Bethany, raised His hands, and blessed them. As He blessed them He parted from them and was taken up to heaven. Luke 24:50-51

Wigs Word of God Today 5-12-2013

The Ascension of Silence brought to our lips by His Divine Will. Inescapable. Undeniable. Eternal.

May the eyes of [your] hearts be enlightened, that you may know what is the hope that belongs to His call. Ephesians 1:18a

He led them [out] as far as Bethany, raised His hands, and blessed them. As He blessed them He parted from them and was taken up to heaven. Luke 24:50-51

Acts 1:1-11, Psalm 47, Ephesians 1:17-23 & Luke 24:46-53

He was raised and sits at the Right Hand of God by the Power created by He to leave yet enter our “hearts enlightened” as He did the day of His Ascension where after just having breakfast catching a mother load of fish by His Command from the beach putting to rest the most famous bar-b-que the world over transitioning to watching Him Rise into Heaven blessing them first in the awe of God’s Amazing Ability leaving them but causing a fire we still feel today by the Truth illuminating our hearts as He did theirs from the beginning. Jesus would send the Holy Spirit to instruct them as John would soon share his thoughts on how Christ came to be as He “enlightened” us with His Word through the Prophets sending a predestined plan to heal the wounds of sin caused by self-will uneducated on God’s Will.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came to be through Him, and without Him nothing came to be.” John 1:1-3

Here, we find the hope to know His Call by the Word of God securing our obedience to the Will of God. Today in our celebration of remembering the Ascension we first turn the pages of God’s Truth written to instruct and enlighten our hearts of Christ’s Spirit leading us to be everything we can in the surrender of Christ’s call of living for His faith getting down on our knees in prayer to Him while serving love of Jesus in the charity we provide to bring Him alive. We can hear this call when His Word becomes our life by sharing what He asks of us not afraid of Him Rising shedding tears of joy in your crying lost not in sin but in righteousness to win the Salvation promised in the Ascension of Silence brought to our lips by His Divine Will. Inescapable. Undeniable. Eternal.

I am reminded today of two versus in the Bible that instructs our call for the greater good of humanity’s need of knowing charity in faith abiding in prayers for charity’s sake producing His love by charity’s Great Teacher in first the book of Philippians 2:12e-15 and then Ephesians 6:15-20. I pray you enjoy them both hearing your call amongst the Words of Truth prayerfully enlightening your heart to always hear His voice. Amen.

Work out your Salvation with fear and trembling. For God is the One who, for His good purpose, works in you both to desire and to work. Do everything without grumbling or questioning, that you may be blameless and innocent, Children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine like lights in the world.” Philippians 2:12e-15

Take the helmet of Salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. With all prayer and supplication, pray at every opportunity in the Spirit. To that end, be watchful with all perseverance and supplication for all the holy ones and also for me, that speech may be given me to open my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Gospel for which I am an ambassador in chains, so that I may have the courage to speak as I must.” Ephesians 6:17-20

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray our hearts are always enlightened by the Truth we live obedient to every day. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 14:2 I chant- “The LORD looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if even one is wise, if even one seeks God.” In Jesus Name we pray for all teachers especially the ones teaching the Gospel of Your Son.

He had been instructed in the Way of the LORD and, with ardent spirit, spoke and taught accurately about Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John. Acts 16:25

For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have come to believe that I came from God. John 16:27

Acts 18:23-28, Psalm 47 & John 16:23-28

We learn today of a Jewish man name Apollos who was an “eloquent speaker” and “instructed in the Way of the LORD” but only sharing what he had learned by the hearsay of John’s baptism. He did what many of us need today: Learn about Jesus by the Disciples who are around us to better share the message of Christ’s “Way” fulfilling the destiny of God’s Divine Will enlightening the mind to instill thoughts of Truth’s Salvation. He as all of us ache in a humble spirit for God’s Truth to bear witness on everything we do allowing Apollos to go from someone who “taught accurately about Jesus” to being instructed on “the Way (of God) more accurately.”

We all have teachers around us who can help us understand the Word of God with joy in our heart lifting our spirit to thrills of breaths taken away to heaven’s height losing all fright seeing Christ in the dark of night. Close your eyes with me now as I do often when I go about my day or write and pray silently within our heart to be forgiven aligning life with Truth’s beauty obtaining the fruits of the Father’s spoil. Here, we admit God is in everything we are especially in the silence of own hearts making “Way” for Christ’s Salvation in all we care to accomplish. Again, Jesus reminds us to ask of Him to receive what the Father offers all who walk in the “Way.” Amen.

This week in our school district we celebrated teacher appreciation learning the unspoken thoughts and prayers of children who are entrusted into our care to instill faith, hope and love of life’s challenges, choices, courage and challenges again because we all know we will be challenged over and over again. As a public school teacher, I am not allowed to talk about Jesus but as a Montessori School Teacher I am allowed to talk about our Creator honoring the opinions of parental choices and celebrating with all people this unrestricted choice of humanity’s free will. No matter the way many walk in throughout every school in our world we must embrace without judgment the necessities of the child’s spirit being reverent and loving of each child’s soul.

When God’s Will placed me in a Montessori School, He did so allowing me to watch a child grow over three years instead of teaching them one and out. I watch a scared little 6-year-old walk in and three years later witness a 9-year-old emerges to be his or her own thinker relishing learning as the path life will always demand. Many of these unspoken hearts open up often during these three years but some hit you with notes of amazement when they end their third year.

This year a student wrote, “I love you. May God bless you. You’ll always be with me and I’ll always be with you. Thanks for giving me courage and everything else.” Tears only joy would bring came streaming down because I had only been with this student for three months. I began looking at another that read “Even if there’s crowd you always standing out” and God swooped me up healing so many wounds of life giving me hope our future can and will be affected by people who care. So find and hug a teacher not forgetting to love your preacher as we all learn to dig deeper to fight the Grim Reaper. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to seek instruction of those around us who lift us to new heights of understating. Prayers of thanksgiving for all teachers of the world. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 139:12-14 I chant- “Darkness is not dark for You, and night shines as the day. Darkness and light are but one. You formed my inmost being; You knit me in my mother’s womb. I praise You, because I am wonderfully made; wonderful are Your Works!

Bringing strength to all Disciples gladly
While in Ephesus a Jew taught boldly

He was Apollos knowing only John’s baptism day
The Disciples Pricilla and Aquila heard what he had to say

Taking him aside they explained God’s Truth to pray

Amen, amen, I say to you, you will weep and mourn, while the world rejoices; you will grieve, but your grief will become joy. John 16:20

Wigs Word of God Today 5-10-2013

Weep in joy for those around us who seem ignorant to living God First.

One night in a vision the LORD said to Paul, “Do not be afraid. Go on speaking, and do not be silent, for I am with you. No one will attack and harm you, for I have many people in this city.” He settled there for a year and a half and taught the Word of God among them. Acts 18:9-11

Amen, amen, I say to you, you will weep and mourn, while the world rejoices; you will grieve, but your grief will become joy. John 16:20

Acts 18:9-18, Psalm 47 & John 16:20-23

Paul heard the Power in a vision, “Do not be afraid” placing His Spirit in his heart living bold by the Truth He shared in Christ’s Salvation. Here, we see Paul gaining the strength of angels by the Truth he centers his life around and in Christ’s Gospel. There is nothing else Paul wanted to do but share the Word of God baptizing for Christ’s Salvation. He left his old self behind conquering all in the Name of Christ Jesus. Where do you hear God’s strength in your life? As for me, I see it in the Word I practice each and every day. I practice what I preach so to speak seeking to live in communion His Will by keeping my mind thinking about His Truth in every circumstance I encounter aligning my faith to establish hope conquering love by charity.

Jesus describes the ways we mourn and weep for those around us who seem ignorant to living God First in all circumstances grieving as we grope to fathom why finding joy as we cry tears of Salvation allowing us to never die. My invitation is constant in all aspects of my life from when I arise to when I place my head on my pillow; I am praying and thanking God for His Truth. I placed this love in the midst of children squabbling over fun in the streets as a child knocked on my door the other day to ask me to get a kid from beating his brother up. Finding strength in God to do what you have to do to protect yourself I reminded them is centered in every human heart even your parents would agree with. “Don’t be afraid to tell his parents or your parents,” I said. “As you ask God for help too.” Let us place God First and know God’s love preaching Salvation. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray we are never afraid to share Your Truth. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 13:6 I chant- “But I trust in Your mercy.

Lest she forget holding the child she gains
For once the baby arrives we naturally refrain
From sinning lest we forget by what is lame

Anguish is now on your hearts before I go
It is I that make you feel sadness to know
You will see your hearts rejoice never to blow

May the eyes of [your] hearts be enlightened, that you may know what is the hope that belongs to His call, what are the riches of glory in His inheritance among the holy ones, and what is the surpassing greatness of His Power for us who believe, in accord with the exercise of His Great Might, which He worked in Christ, raising Him from the dead and seating Him at His right hand in the heavens. Ephesians 1:18-20

No judgment to pass from your heart but the radiance of His call.

May the eyes of [your] hearts be enlightened, that you may know what is the hope that belongs to His call, what are the riches of glory in His inheritance among the holy ones, and what is the surpassing greatness of His Power for us who believe, in accord with the exercise of His Great Might, which He worked in Christ, raising Him from the dead and seating Him at His right hand in the heavens. Ephesians 1:18-20

And He said to them, “Thus it is written that the Messiah would suffer and rise from the dead on the third day and that repentance, for the forgiveness of sins, would be preached in His Name to all the nations” Luke 24:46-47

Acts 1:1-11, Psalm47, Ephesians 1:17-23 & Luke 24:46-53

There is a beauty in the enlightenment of your heart by Christ that takes your breath away when you sit and pray aloud or in silent accepting “His call” feeling educated, edified and energized by knowing the release of falsehoods and fantasies obedient to surrender and Salvation. Jesus Christ has more freedom than failure tolerance than persecution providing an undying expectation of Truth. In the eyes of the few and proud silent or loud can refuse His Truth but your duty is not to debate but rather establish dialogue by your practice of living the Word of God.

This doesn’t mean you have to a Bible expert, it means you have to read the Word of God daily and over time His Word will be the reason you give faith, live hope and understand charity. The dialogue you create with nonbelievers must show understanding and reason allowing no judgment to pass from your heart but the radiance of “His call” from your soul to accomplish sharing your faith, teaching Truth by your prayer as we work charity providing love over judgment. People will be drawn to you by the work of His Right Hand in you favoring Truth allowing change to occur in the hearts of sin. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray our hearts stay enlightened by the grace of Your Truth. Prayers for my step-son Gabriel whose birthday was yesterday. Prayers for Dr, Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 140:5 I chant- “Keep me, LORD, from the clutches of the wicked; preserve me from the violent, who plot to trip me up.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

The Mercy of God in His Valleys of Truth- Psalm 23

I lack absolutely nothing
By the Shepard of Life
Lying down in green pastures
In still waters I’m reborn to ignite

He leads me restoring my soul
Only His paths of Truth I find
For the sake of His Name I go
Allowing my life to be His in kind

The death in valleys I fear not
No evil will overcome my belief
Comforted by His rod and staff
His Truth I eternally conceive

God’s table is set before me
As enemies jockey to kill
He anoints my head with oil
I live according to His Will

As my cup overfloweth
Goodness and mercy I pursue
My life throughout all my days
In His House I live to never undue

The Mercy of God in His Valleys
Allow us to live for His Truth
In His 23rd Psalm of David
God’s Love is forever True

When He comes, the Spirit of Truth, He will guide you to all Truth. He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming. He will glorify Me, because He will take from what is Mine and declare it to you. Everything that the Father has is Mine; for this reason I told you that He will take from what is Mine and declare it to you. John 16:13-15

Wigs Word of God Today 5-8-2013

Share in dialogue not debate remaining in Christ’s peace not sins judgment.

For as I walked around looking carefully at your shrines, I even discovered an altar inscribed, ‘To an Unknown God.’ What therefore you unknowingly worship, I proclaim to you. The God who made the world and all that is in it, the LORD of heaven and earth, does not dwell in sanctuaries made by human hands, nor is He served by human hands because He needs anything. Rather it is He who gives to everyone life and breath and everything. Acts 17:23-25

When He comes, the Spirit of Truth, He will guide you to all Truth. He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming. He will glorify Me, because He will take from what is Mine and declare it to you. Everything that the Father has is Mine; for this reason I told you that He will take from what is Mine and declare it to you. John 16:13-15

Acts 17:15, 22–18:1, Psalm 148 & John 16:12-15

The Athenians are described as “religious” by Paul’s observations as he discovers a willingness by them to listen engaging him in dialogue the world over is craving now as we speak. The purpose of God’s Kingdom on earth is garnered by self-will and cannot be forced unwillingly down anyone’s innards but silent tyrants of evils desire can create a brainwashing if you will of your self-will to become a reliant-will to soon too fast way past the grasp of normal understanding seeing not the purity of heart but the pun of your understanding stealing what God intended by simple soulistic surrender.

What upset Paul then as it does now any person of faith is the idols stretched across our landscape as normal every day constancy of sin striking a lightning bolt to humanity’s reliant being that can only be taken away by the Truth in the Spirit of Christ “who gives to everyone life and breath and everything.” God offers what Jesus represents in Salvation creating the faith, hope and love we all seek or live we have to share in dialogue not debate remaining in peace not judgment of other’s aching desires of the flesh or greed remaining focused as Paul to proclaim the known God around you. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray we proclaim Your Truth by Your Spirit we listen to in our souls. Day nine of a Novena of prayers for Regina Roig-Romero. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 12:2 I chant- “Help, LORD, for no one loyal remains; the faithful have vanished from the children of men.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

†Spirit led God inspired Christ fed†
Romans 8:28

What is His in now ours His Spirit of Truth’s deity?- John 16:12-15

Jesus reminded them there was more to tell
He thought they’d have trouble to bear then
What He would relay in the Spirit of Truth
Who gives all from the Father always to begin

A guidance lasting forever for each one of you
Speaking what He hears the Father’s love to prove
Declaring all things that are coming for all life’s groove
Glorifying the Christ giving what is His where He stood

For all the Father has and is remains in He
The Christ Who bore the sin for humanity
Declaring Salvation by the Cross we eternally see
What is His in now ours His Spirit of Truth’s deity?

When He comes He will convict the world in regard to sin and righteousness and condemnation: sin, because they do not believe in Me; righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see Me; condemnation, because the ruler of this world has been condemned. John 16:8-11

Wigs Word of God Today 5-7-2013

Rebuke Satans advances to relish in Christ’s Saving Grace of Truth.

Then he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” And they said, “Believe in the LORD Jesus and you and your household will be saved.” So they spoke the Word of the LORD to him and to everyone in his house. He took them in at that hour of the night and bathed their wounds; then he and all his family were baptized at once. Acts 16:30-33

When He comes He will convict the world in regard to sin and righteousness and condemnation: sin, because they do not believe in Me; righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see Me; condemnation, because the ruler of this world has been condemned. John 16:8-11

Acts 16:22-34, Psalm 138 & John 16:5-11

The urgency felt to proclaim your belief in God’s Only Son caused your soul to tremble and your mind to race until that moment when you shout, “I do believe. What must I do to be saved?” It is no different than the guard who sat in horror thinking he would be the reason for such an escape of prisoners but the two ran not from the imprisonment of suffering for Christ but instead surrendered to the punishment for the cause of Truth. This urgency you felt to say yes to Christ is the urgency you should feel in placing everything at the Foot of His Cross contemplating not the desire of sin but the surrender to Salvation for the obedience of faith, hope and love of charity.

Jesus explains His Spirit’s Role as the Advocate who by the hope of the Disciples will be the One Who prosecutes the world for their refusal of believing in Jesus. John eloquently explains that although Jesus was found guilty and was hung on a Cross in disgrace, the Truth of God’s Righteousness has and always will overcome evil for Jesus rose to take His Rightful place next to our Father Who art in Heaven. Satan may rule the world but Christ’s death indicates He has been condemned by God and therefore has not power over the man woman or child who turns to the Truth in surrender. You know, the feeling you get to rebuke Satan’s advances to relish in Christ’s Saving Grace of Truth enacting obedience to live in faith praying for hope embraced by God’s love. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray we always believe in Your Son’s Truth to share the Salvation of love to overcome sin. Day eight of a Novena of prayers for Regina Roig-Romero. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 141:8 I chant- “For my eyes are upon You, O LORD, my LORD; In You I take refuge; do not take away my soul.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Romans 8:28

In Christ we find the Truth of the Father’s rest- John 16:5-11

Speaking the Truth can cause grief
By the souls lack of righteousness and sleep
For I must go to the Father to greet
Those here the Spirit will know who believe

In Me the Christ Who must sit to agree
Better that I go than desire that of Me
Grief will know the Advocate of belief
Sent to you to allow Truth to conceive

He Who will convict the world of sin
Those who fail to surrender to win
The Salvation I offer by My death to begin
Eternal Life in heaven by the Father’s grin

No longer will you see Me in the nest
My Spirit will work miracles to mesh
Condemnation for the ruler of the flesh
In Christ we find the Truth of the Father’s rest

When the Advocate comes whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth that proceeds from the Father, He will testify to Me. John 15:26

Wigs Word of God Today 5-6-2013

Stay surrounded by the Face of Truth.

When the Advocate comes whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth that proceeds from the Father, He will testify to Me. John 15:26

Acts 16:11-15, Psalm 149 & John 15:26–16:4

Jesus reminds us again and again that He would send the “Advocate” allowing the Spirit of Truth to guide us in our every thought, action and deed allowing the Truth to literally “set us free.” I don’t know about you but I’ve felt this freedom as the only freedom I’ll ever crave again providing a “high” that is unmatched the world over giving me the desires of my heart in love not luster purpose not prison freedom not failure. We often wonder how we endure the difficult times when we lose sight of the Trust we place on the Spirit of Truth because we lack the practice, prayer and proclamation to keep our selves immersed in God’s Truth.

Jesus was very adamant about telling us the reason why He foretells His Death and Resurrection reminding us of the joy and instructions to stay surrounded by the Face of Truth delivered by the Holy Spirit allowing a full Communion with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit as One. “I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete. I have told you this so that you may not fall away.” John 15:11- 16:1 We accept Salvation by the confession of our lips, our hearts and our souls allowing the Spirit of Truth to guide our actions, thoughts and deeds living for charity’s purpose by Christ who dwells in us to conceive. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray we listen and hear the Advocate guide us for Your Purpose LORD. Day seven of a Novena of prayers for Regina Roig-Romero. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 11:8 I chant- “The LORD is just and loves just deeds; the upright will see His face.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

†Spirit led God inspired Christ fed†
Romans 8:28

Know the Father by the hour you tell- John 15:26–16:4

Jesus explained the Might
In the Advocate driven right
Prepared for you out-of-sight
From the Father My guiding Light

Testify to Me the Advocate He will do
A Light of Truth enjoyed by you
From the beginning you have seen the Truth
Being with Me has provided the Proof

You now know how to not fall away
Guided by the Spirit of Truth each day
To read My Word and always pray
Even if they expel you or kill you to abade

True worship to God has expelled
A life of torment living all is well
Seeking not the sin of living in hell
Know the Father by the hour you tell

The Advocate, the Holy Spirit that the Father will send in My Name—He will teach you everything and remind you of all that [I] told you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. John 14:26-27

Wigs Word of God Today 5-5-2013

Guided by His unutterable Words of faith, hope and love.

Since we have heard that some of our number [who went out] without any mandate from us have upset you with their teachings and disturbed your peace of mind, It is the decision of the Holy Spirit and of us not to place on you any burden beyond these necessities, namely, to abstain from meat sacrificed to idols, from blood, from meats of strangled animals, and from unlawful marriage. If you keep free of these, you will be doing what is right. Farewell! Acts 15:24, 28-29

The Advocate, the Holy Spirit that the Father will send in My Name—He will teach you everything and remind you of all that [I] told you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. John 14:26-27

Acts 15:1-2, 22-29, Psalm 67, Revelation 21:10-14, 22-23 & John 14:23-29

Look around you and compel yourself to count the “teachings” of how many different religions, romances and royalties there are to guide your existence by the money they take or tax to control the playing fields of life we live in. Many times people are drawn to a person’s swagger if you will convinced they have something you want to feel, fathom and fornicate with that will give you something you already have but seemingly forget in the midst of “their teachings” of self-fulfillment.

When we find the courage to allow God to work through us as well as in us we offer the message ONLY He can do: Salvation. LORD, in the midst of learning I pray I can share truly Your Divine Truth as only Your Mandates of faith, hope and love abiding in charity. I know LORD Your Advocate actively beats in my heart by His guiding hand where Your Peace resides striving to be the Smile of Salvation.

We are guided by His “unutterable” Words of faith by the practice we form loving His Truth. We are formed in His “unutterable” answers to our constant prayers of faith living in hope. We are His teachers by the proclamation of His Truth we share in His love. We identify our lives with every facet of His Teaching by living His Real Presence in every obedient desire God reveals in our practice, prayer and proclamation of hearts not troubled or afraid.

A calm I feel in life’s mistakes harnessed and forgotten by the LORD I state unwilling to fake the life to lead where Christ is truly present in every thought to conceive. Yes, family and friends may find the time to debate and truly whine but I tell you His Truth not on my own accord but that of He Who dwells in my innards adored. So please don’t argue with anyone about sin but engage them in dialogue not shame to win allowing them to find Christ’s Salvation not blame of sin’s experiences seeking some sort of fame. He Who dwells in us all must be lived as we stand so tall wanting Jesus to be identified with each waking call finding charity in a universe seemingly so small. Amen.

We ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray to hear the Holy Spirit’s guidance by the love we have for Your Word living in prayer proclaiming with love. Day six of a Novena of prayers for Regina Roig-Romero. Day nine of a Novena of prayers for Marissa fighting cancer. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Greg Bishop has constant prayers. LORD from Psalm 142:8 I chant- “Lead my soul from prison, that I may give thanks to Your Name. Then the righteous shall gather around me because You have been good to me.” In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

I am yours in Christ,

†Spirit led God inspired Christ fed†
Romans 8:28

Known before it happened so all may believe- John 14:23-29

Jesus taught His Disciples to keep His Word
For whoever loves Jesus shares what he has heard
Then the Father will love you even the absurd
For God forgives all of the sin we learn to curb

In you a dwelling place eternally resides
For He the Christ Who our surrender will abide
In not keeping His Word Jesus may just deny
His Salvation of sin liberating the flesh that will die

For this Word the Christ did speak
Was never His own to leak and to share
The Father Who sent He the Christ to bear
The sin of all mankind once and for all to square

He told this while He was with them in flesh as the same
He gave them the Advocate to overcome the pain
Of separation of nothing but a mind game
The Holy Spirit to fulfill the hearts of the faithful seeking His Name

His peace He gave as peace only He could give
Not the world of selfishness we would live
Only the world of surrender obedient as He did
Not troubled or afraid peaceful hearts rest we gain

By loving He the Christ we rejoice to see
How He went to His Father sitting next to He
Greater than all humanity will always agree
Known before it happened so all may believe
