Everyday is a new challenge and God has made our eyes compatible with the vision of the universe and beyond with our new bodies and new eyes when we are transformed into the spiritual body that lives forever to be with God. I traveled through the city this morning of the old and new to see where buildings stood and houses that were homes but no longer stand. I remember all the historic places that man with no vision tore down. I remember the landmarks and directions as I drove my old car because my new old car is in the shop and it’s dangerous to drive because it pulls to the left intermittently. My new older Lincoln town car had to be traded in because the wiring harness caught on fire from a short and it melted much of the wiring. I am asking for a recall by Ford Motor Company of my new old car because of the dangerous braking problem and many other defects I encounter.
Pray first and work second, eat right and be healed, exercise daily and meditate.
What is faith so simple and how does one explain how it comes and goes and it drives us to great heights? The invisible nature of faith is a valuable asset while it cannot be explained and it is not tangible, yet it is real. We’re driven by faith to believe in an invisible God. Faith is hope and much more. Lord gives us faith that we can make it through all the trials that plague us and the suffering we feel.
Think on the Lord and he will renew your strength. Worship and praise Him.
I start new today with a new computer programmer to bring my visual art gallery to a new high level. I feel it is time for me to make a real mission statement on my website to speak my faith, my mission and my beliefs boldly to a world confused on religious issues, I speak mainly to the unchurched because the churched have a false sense of security and feel that they do not need any help from the outside world. I felt such frustration when my last programmer quit leaving me in the middle of my website construction with about 100 pictures up of about 300 I need displayed.
Make me faithful dear Lord to my family and to Thy calling all my life.
The steepled church today contains the Antichrist and has for more than the last millennium. The mysterious is now coming clear to me and my inspiration grows stronger everyday. The Revelation has continually been fulfilled sense the apostle John saw this vision in A.D. 96 when he was about one hundred years old and Christ appeared to him with the message for the seven churches. The many religions of the world continue to confuse the real salvation. I believe in internal life. I believe in the second coming of the Lord, the Christ as messiah. I believe in a resurrection of the dead that died in Christ. I believe that the blood covers our sin as substitute for the sacrifice before God of a lamb. Christ was crucified for us that we may be saved by our faith and have eternal life. Today my paintings take on a new meaning because I am challenged to support them with a statement of fact. I will write my mission statement dated April 19, 2000 and express my heart and my soul to put into words what my paintings are saying visually. I speak through the eyes of the Holy Spirit. My paintings are not the Holy Spirit of God inspires my own but. I believe in time people will understand what I am saying. I am not trying to please man but God I have no choice. Make of me dear Lord a servant first and a man later. Make me strong dear lord that my eyes may see your will for me. Let me be as clay in your hands and stand for the truth and not profit.
