Lord draw close to me and help me . Guide me , give me strength , guidance and patience . Help me to listen to the spirit , to avoid the distractions of this world . Lord I know that what you guide me in is only a fraction of greater works not mine to understand . Please temper and use me Lord . Amen
No turning back , No turning back !
Amen.
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.
Amen!
when the dust settles and the smoke clears all that matters is I hear the words " well done my good and faithfully servant "

and Amen
Being human is not for sissies.
Charlie, it is commonly known that little is learned by talking but much is learned by listening....great post and I thank you for it....Paul
When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!
"Within the covers of the Bible are the answers for all the problems man faces." President Ronald Reagan
"We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the law breaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is acoutable for his actions." Presdent Ronald Reagan
So many times ..so many times I am distracted . My preconceptions , the noise around me ,my own standards of judgement , my own failings , the noise around me , my experience with others that have failed me , my assumption of social norms , the noise around me , my personal success over failings , the noise around me , my raising , what I know to be finite , my feelings The noise around me ,.............. . If I do not pause , if I do not lay it down I will fail . I understand yet still hear the noise around me .
I pray to lay it down . To listen .

Amen, I can relate 100%.
Amen, Boaz! I keep re-learning that my pre-conceived notions are often the biggest barrier to greater understanding of others, and myself as well. And they CAN even mask the realities of our Lord, as well, if we lock into a single view of Him. He's FAR too great to be encapsulated into a brief, terse description! When I lay down my notions, and just go looking for the simple Truth, I do my best "thinking" and "perceiving," and receive my best epiphanies. Ain't it funny how that works? All I have to do is drop my own thoughts, and just open up to those of my Lord, and .... bingo! There's yet another tidbit of Truth, just fallen into my lap, more or less! The world doesn't always work the way we think it does, or want it to, or according to certain "rules of logic." Sometimes, it drops little gifts upon us if we just open ourselves up to them, and let them come to US! I doubt I'll ever quite understand that, or just how it works. I only know it DOES work that way, if we'll but let it do so.
