THE LAST TO KNOW

We, all of us are ‘in charge’.   We don’t need to ask anyone.   As a matter of fact most of us would rather  tell someone.   However, sometimes we find out we are the last to know!

That can hurt!!   Then who will we call?

When God put us here, He had a plan.   Though we know that, how many of us ask Him?      

  God’s design in all of this, this world, and its people, places, and happenings are because He allows it.    As anyone of us knows,  Our Father’s are strong disciplinarians.   ( If they want obedient children they are. )  Children are very ‘smart’.    They  have only to worry about what they want and how to get it! 

So  it is with us!    We  are all thinking about what we want and how to get it.

 “Why is it not happening?”   ”  Who can I get to do that? ”   Then,   we are quick to tell someone , ” You’re  wrong, and no way can that work.”

God is telling us how to live in harmony, and in peace.   Are we listening?  .      

The problem : “we each think it is the other guy”!

   It takes  keeping the two great commandments.    So how many of us do?

Life is of God!   He owns it!!

It’s purpose is to please the heavenly Father!

That friend is why He made us.   He loves us passionately!    He is waiting for each of us to follow His rules!   He is giving us time.   Yet, it is up to Him as to how much time ; It is only  loan.

“Are you the last to know?”

Jesus Christ is King!  He rules!

When you close your eyes, will He smile and say, “I’ve been expecting you!   Welcome Home!”   OR Will He say, ” I know you not!  Out of my sight you evildoer!”

Regardless!   It is up to Him!     Times Up!    It always was His!!

God Bless You!    May you decide to know the peace that surpasses all understanding, and decide to come to Jesus Christ now.   For tomorrow never comes!!

Book of Romans: Chapter 28 verses 25-28

25 “Without reaching any agreement among themselves, they began to leave.    Then Paul added one final word: “The Holy Spirit stated it well when he said to your fathers through the prophet Isaiah :

26    ‘ Go to this people and say:    You may listen carefully yet you will never understand;   you may look intently yet you will never see.

27     The heart of this people has grown sluggish.   They have scarcely used their ears to listen; their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their minds, And repent; and I should have to heal them.’

28   Now you must realize that this salvation of God has been transmitted to the Gentiles-   who will heed it!”

Jesus Speaks: CONDITIONS OF DISCIPLESHIP:  Book of Luke :  Chapter 9 verses:23-27   Jesus said to all:

“Whoever wishes to be my follower must deny his very self, take up his cross each day, and follow in my steps.   24   Whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will save it.   25 What profit does he show who gains the whole world and destroys himself in the process?    26 If a man is ashamed of me and my doctrine, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in his glory and that of his Father and his holy angels.   27  I assure you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the reign of God.”

Book of Mark: Chapter 12 verses 28-34
The Great Commandment:

28   One of the scribes came up and when heard them arguing he realized how skillfully Jesus answered them.   He decided to ask him , “Which is  the first of all the commandments?”

29   Jesus  replied:

“This is the first: 

‘Hear, O Israel!   The Lord our God is Lord alone!   30   Therefore you shall love the Lord you God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ 

  31 This is the second,

‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself’.    There is no other commandment greater than these.”  32 The scribe said to him: ” Excellent, Teacher!   You are right in saying, ‘He is the One, there is no other than he.’   33   Yes, ‘to love him with all our heart,  with all our thoughts and with all our strength, and to love our neighbor as ourselves’ is worth more than any burnt offering or sacrifice.”    34  Jesus approved the insight of this answer and told him, “You are not far from the reign of God.” And no one had the courage to ask him any more questions.”
