Monday Quote!
Thomas d Kempis
First put yourself at peace,
and then you may the better
make others be at peace.
A peaceful and patient man
is of more profit to himself
and to others,
too, than a learned man who has no peace.
First put yourself at peace,

A peaceful and patient man

and to others,

Within the soul’s heart
a seed of joy is planted
dying it tales root.
As joy sends out rootlets fibers
cracking. slicing, and digging into
the rock hard stone face of sadness.
Crumbling. crunching, and feasting on
the darkness of depression
sprout forth the seedlings
contentment and gladness.
From the fresh tilled soil
nutrients are leeched out of
anger, envy, and strife,
Thrive the saplings
generosity, unselfishness, and gentleness.
Cut down, uprooted, and turned to compost
is the poison vine’s upshot
hate, rage, and self-ambition.
Budding now the Vine of Grace
Fragrantly flowering is
goodness, self-control. and faithfulness.
Fire from Heaven
consumes the tree of death
the ash of
debauchery and lust
is whisked away in the Holy Wind
Found here is
the Tree of Life
ripened fruit burst open
showers of sweet nectar of
Peace and Love.
Christ alone can bring lasting peace
peace with God…
peace among men…
and peace to nations…
and peace within our hearts.
I am standing atop
this snow packed mountain summit,
rolling this snowball named Love.
What shall happen when…
this snowball named Love
is tumbled from this pinnacle’s edge
called begrudged?
With shouts of praise
to God’s only Son!
A great mountain becomes
undone!!!!

Grace isn’t a little prayer you
chant before receiving a meal. It is a
way of life.
No I am not back on-line yet, just being creative on reaching out! Hoping this works!?
I cannot begin to express how deeply this post describes the place in my life I am at now. Yes the Lord has taken me into the valley and I go of my own freewill for when our Abba returns me to the mountain I shall be the humble and meek man for God’s vision in me.
I am not giving anyone the cold shoulder: My laptop has caught a virus this past Sunday. The geek was thinking it was not terminal… Yet in his last report to me the virus was winning the war!!!!
I will be back as soon as possible reading your post, responding to your comments, and writing. The good part is has given me this much-needed time to be with our Abba to listen and wait on Him.
the news from the final reading of Donkey Tells this Wednesday night is:::
The angels in heaven are rejoicing for the little lost lamb has been found!!
AMEN!

It is the image of God reflected in you that so enrages hell; it is this at which the demons hurl their mightest weapons. ~ William Gurnall
