One Truth


Who am I Lord to question what you have declared acceptable? Who am I to judge anything but by your word and your decree. It's by your word and your decree that I know anything. Any other is folly for your word is the only truth that exists and it was authored by your mouth. It existed before the time of men began and has stood unchanged by the interpretations of men and the efforts of the enemy to hide it or pervert it. It stands alone as the highest shining monument of all time unable to be changed by the efforts of any who would come against it. The light of it gives men the mercy and grace to see as they walk the path of this life. The spirit of it gives wisdom and understanding to those who would founder in blindness and ignorance without it and fall to their death. It gives sustenance to live and strength to walk the miles. It brings healing to the broken and comforts those who would tremble as they walk.

The enemy of mens souls has made substitution to snare the feet of those who walk the earth. It's cunning and elaborate. It's planned with great evil in its intention and perfected over the centuries to become the only obvious before men. Those who are taken by it hold it high and swear by it. They claim it as great wisdom as they rebuke those who refuse it and declare them to be fools. Only by your mercy are eyes given to see it for what it is. Only by your grace are men spared the reward of it. For ignorance and blindness are it's payment and death its final reward as they stumble and fall from the mountain of its feigned wisdom when the truth is revealed in the day of judgement.

I know not where I may go in this path of your choosing, only that it leads me to you. I know only that the course that I seek to follow is one written by your hand and my confidence is high in the one that guides my feet. If I am called a fool and the wisdom I live by does not meet the approval of this world, I only need to know that you are with me, that you are pleased in my progress and that I am on the path of your choosing. Make known to me your ways and the wisdom of your word and I will be confident in the face of all enemies. For there is only one truth whose light shatters the darkness to reveal the way I must go and keeps my feet safe from the snares. There is only one God who authors the one truth and it is He that leads me on my way. Nothing else matters and nothing else is to my gain. Nothing else can deliver fulfillment or bring real satisfaction. For I was created to do this one thing, to serve the one God who authored the one truth with all of this one heart.

An Observance And Observing True Reality...

As Easter approaches, I begin once again considering how our God sees our observance of an occasion as I always do and also what He might truly desire of us in observance above any of our trivial, man inspired traditions . What I come away with in firm conviction is the understanding that the most trivial of my sins, the least of my crimes against God, had the power to forever damn me in His judgment of me and send me into unending torment. And that knowing this one thing in truth and as reality, is key to my correct posture before God in honor of His purpose in the event. That key being the horror of knowing that the price of my very least sin was the shedding of my Christ Jesus' blood and His horrible suffering, because the reality of this brings the deep rending of my heart in awe and gratitude and it makes possible my true joy at the relief of my sentence because of what He has done. I believe this is a part of what God would desire from us in observance of Christ's death a...

The Real Power To Affect Change

I know that my position here may not be popular on it's face at first, but I think it could be most revealing of where some hearts are - even my own, by the response that it evokes... I think it's possible that we're all partly responsible for the chaos and darkness that is constantly swirling around in the digital tornado that is the constantly hammering news these days. While we may not have contributed to it directly by our own actions, it's a good bet that we may have contributed to it by our own inaction. Where does the true power to change things come from? And who is our best example to follow in this life? Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed." Mark 1:35 (NKJ) "Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God." Luke 6:12 (NKJ) "Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought ...

Judging, Judgment And Judge...

"I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark. I will not judge those who hear me but don’t obey me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. But all who reject me and my message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken. I don’t speak on my own authority. The Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to say it. And I know his commands lead to eternal life; so I say whatever the Father tells me to say.” John 12:46-50 (NLT) A lot is said these days about "judging", but in the midst of that popular societal buzz and the assertive comments that come with that conversation, I have a question: If God has called something sin and we simply agree with what He's said,... are we judging or just repeating and declaring the truth? When He walked the earth, Jesus spoke about judging and He pointed out the danger of our judging...  “Do not judge other...
