Do things change?

“Some things never change..."
A collection of letters
To make words
Into a catch phrase...
With a negative connotation
Or hopefully in my case...
A positive one...
In regards to how I feel.
I am thankful for Yahweh's
Never ending mercy, grace
And Agape Love...
For it was written:

Hebrews 13:8

Jesus Christ, yesterday, and to day; and the same for ever.

Although, if we are living for Yahweh, through Yeshuas life, death and resurrection, in the name of their
Holy Spirit... and our Blessed Mother's
Nurturing care, love and intercessions, then:

2 Corinthians 5:17

If then any be in Christ a new creature, the old things are passed away, behold all things are made new.

And change from our bitterness, resentment, addictions, idolatry, false religious practices and anything contrary from God's Holy Commandments must change...
We must be as He said...
And never again change...
As in any change,
There comes training, practice,discipline, obedience, humbleness, forgiveness, repentance and acceptance.
Nothing to do with change
Ever comes easily...
Diets being a hard one...
But if followed...
Oh, the rewards are grand.
Such is the spiritual diet
In changing sin for holiness.
The key thing is for
The transformation to take place,
Is realizing that the battle against sin
Was won through the life, death
And resurrection of Yeshua!
Wow! And all we have to do
Is ask Yahweh to forgive us,
Repent of our sinful ways
And accept His will for our life,
Being filled by the Holy Spirit
And letting Yeshua lead our way.
He never changed
He loves us, as when he walked
Upon the earth we walk on;
He died on earth for us...
and was risen unto the heavens
“Some things will never change..."
Glory be to God for this promise
And may He empower us
To change that which we must
So that one day
We will live with Him forevermore.
And perfect... oh, not one of us is:

John 8:7

When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

So let's move forward in Yeshuas
Holy, precious name
And reach His paradise:

John 14:3

And if I shall go, and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will take you to myself; that where I am, you also may be.

So let us change what we must.

Amen.

Fine Line

There is a fine line
Between yesterday
And between today...
Just as Christ Jesus
Did knock at the door of your heart,
The devil is waiting for you
To leave a door cracked
To rush into your heart
To rush into your mind
And poison your soul...
Christ Jesus does not push
His live into your life...
But the devil is a thief
Waiting to break into your life
And steal your joy
Steal your gifts
Steal your future
That God so designed for you.
Today is another day
And if you left the door cracked
And the devil is causing chaos,
Kick him out with the Holy Spirit
Through prayer and fasting
Wash away your soul
With the blood of Jesus Christ
Let Jesus be your friend and king,
Center God first above all
And no doors cracked open
To the devil
Who will lie, kill, and destroy us all.
The devil knows God's potential
In your life and will not stop
Until you are burning in his hell.

Who will you follow

We give the devil too much credit, he is adamantly whispering in our ears, things that will destroy us, but seem satisfying to the flesh... but we have to be the ones who listen, the ones who rebel against the Holy Spirit who tells us not too, the ones who take initiative to the whispering lies. The devil is definitely not going to stop until you fall and then he will beat you with condemnation. But remember this and this alone, when our Savior Yeshua was put on the cross by our sins, in pain, bleeding to death, and still being made fun of, He told God to forgive you, them and me, for we did not know what we were doing. The devil will lie to us, but the truth be told, will we listen to the lies he throws at us daily or will we listen to the Holy Spirit, gifted to us by Yeshua upon ascending to heaven, because God loves us more than we love our own selves? We are in a spiritual warfare that has been conquered through Yeshuas death and resurrection, but the lies of the devil will continue until the return of our King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Yeshua... Our Shepherd.

He knows us

The world might not know who are
But God knows us...
Each and every single hair
That grows upon us...
We might not have high status
But in heaven,
The angels and saints
Are praying for us all
To reach their high status...
We might not have luxury
Here on earth,
But in heaven
I have read the roads
Are paved with Gold,
Alike the cities... according to Revelations...
And we might feel sad at times
But we really have no excuse to
For Yeshua did leave earth
To prepare a place in the heavens for us
Leaving us His Holy Spirit
To tap into the heavens through prayer...
So yes we live in this world,
But we are passing through
We are gifted with gifts from God
While we patiently wait for our turn
When the trumpets will play
And the worship service begins
Together we will join
The angels and saints...
Until then, let us practice in the Mass,
Let us praise and worship Him,
Let us read His word
And pray faithfully unto Him alone.

May we all be ready,
May we all be blessed.

Amen

Born to Die... But Live In between.

When Yeshua asked in prayer
If this cup could be passed...
He knew what the answer was,
And still obeyed...
He did not fuss or pout,
He did sweat blood tho...
So why do we get so twisted,
When we pray
And things don't go our way?
Think about the life of Yeshua..
Our Savior, born to die.
Yes, both you and I
Are born to die as well,
Between those two points,
We are to live...
Knowing what was promised
From the first breath
Breathed into our lungs...
There is no reason
For us to live in misery...
There is no reason
For us to envy...
There is no reason
For us to sin...
For sin is where
We lose His promise,
We lose His mercy,
We lose His grace...
So stop it now
And repent from our ways
Show Him you can
And He will fulfill
His promises now
And those to come
Within you and around you.

Glory be to God.

Who Me?

The mind is so powerful,  it can take you places you never wanted to go and leave you there,  never letting you come back,  while living in the present.  As if you are trapped,  imprisoned without chains or bars, moving freely,  but going no where.  It can make you sick even your body is healthy.  In can remind you of a past you never lived and make you believe it's all your fault.  The mind can destroy your dreams,  if you choose to believe the seeds implanted by whomever or whatever,  growing weeds,  sucking up your life,  while you smile each day,  wishing everyone a good morning.   Beware of the mind,  allow your heart to spread love upon it.  Don't get lost on never land or wonderland,  live in the land God gave you to live  so that one day you will step place in the promised land.  No one deserves to be captive by their own thoughts.  This is why God allowed His son to die a victim death for you,  them and I.  By His sons blood shed,  death and then our resurrection...  Captivity of the mind is just a thought,  we are free...  But beware of the snare of the enemy,  he is stealthy and will lead you astray from the truth God created you to live.

Letting Go

Sooner or later
Without your regards
It will destroy you
It will claw your every gut
Out from your existence
You may not believe it
But it is true...
It will destroy you
From the inside out
Because that us where
It has been stored...
Those feeling of hurt
Those feelings of resentment
The bitterness builds
Decaying the good
As it constructs negative
Sites without delight...
You can fight it
But it will win
For it feeds on rage
So many people
Seek the answers
To resolve the issue
But it can only be released
When you open up
The front door of your heart
And windows of the mind
Say good-bye and let it go...
God knows we all have harbored
Feelings like this from time to time...
Against our loved ones
Against our friends
Against our political officials
Against our clergy leaders
Against out spouses
Against our parents
Against our own selves...
For not understanding who we are
For not respecting our views
For not allowing us to thrive
For wishing upon a falling star...
No one is perfect
No one is exempt
The only freedom found
From pain, hurt, resentment, and bitterness
Is through the Heart of Christ Jesus
He will exchange it all
For joyous things
And wash you clean...
But first you must
Open up the front door of your heart
And windows of your mind
And allow it all to leave
While Christ Jesus love from God
Flushes in.
