MAY 30 2026 Zoom Zoom

One more day and it's June. One more month and the years half over. Time isn't just flying it's zooming by. I had a thing to write about today but I forgot what it was. I have a gleaming crown, according to the Lord. It's on my head. I'm a king. I rule and I reign. I have dominion, both now and forever. That's what he said, not me. I'll take it. All the rest of my days are just time to simply Prepare Myself for the next phase of my life, which is the millennium where I'll be a king. I have to start acting like one now. I have to start acting like I believe fully that I know what my role and purpose will be once I receive my glorified everlasting body and can never die and never be harmed again in any way. I better start behaving in other words. If I'm going to lead the lost sheep and I'm going to teach the little children then I need to set an example today, so anyone who sees me now will not be able to point the finger or remember something harmful that I did. We try to live whether we live or die we try to live as if we're with the Lord already. Not waiting until we get to heaven or until we become perfect or everything here is perfect. No, we begin to live now the life we know we are to live. That gleaming crown should be shining bright in our lives today. We are not of this world. We don't have to let the world bring us down to their level of depravity and hate. We can be like the eagle and rise above all the turkeys down below. The hunter won't be able to reach us up in the sky. But he can shoot the turkeys who sleep on the branches down here. Wake up to righteousness and quit wondering why your life is going to pieces. Walk with God and never quit. Then you'll carry the crown with joy and gladness and not be bowed down with guilt and shame. Sometimes our lives get tarnished with the flesh and it's evil desires. But always, the spirit is there to help us get back on track and regain our authority. The devil flees when he sees us coming. I wonder sometimes what my purpose is here on earth as my days get shorter. Not only must we have a purpose here but we will have a purpose then also. All of our existence must be filled with purpose or we lose hope, direction, and motivation. We become lazy and slothful. We neglect the things we should do. The purpose I will ponder today is getting ready for my role after the judgment day. I will leave this word here for you to see and maybe you will be ready too when the trumpet blows and find fulfillment and purpose all your days. For me that day is coming soon, whether Jesus returns or not. I've already done most of what I'm ever going to do as far as activity or accomplishment is involved. What I need to do now is just prepare for that which lies ahead. For what lies ahead is infinitely greater than what lies behind me.

Deceive to Believe

MAY 29 2026 Deceive to Believe

If the Lord stood in front of you and said, “I'll see you in the rapture at my 2^nd coming,” would you believe him? Well that's what the bible teaches. Have you actually read your bible? Or do you just repeat what the preachers have said? How the myth of the rapture ever got started I don't know and I don't care. How the myth of modern marriage ever got accepted by the denominations I don't know and I don't care. How the myths of evolution and killing fetus' ever got ingrained in our society I have a good idea and I know it's the work of the devil himself. But get this. People only believe what they want to believe. If they didn't want to believe that there is no God and the universe and all this matter suddenly appeared by itself out of nowhere and created itself into a planet of humans, then they would never believe it. If people didn't want to believe that there were no consequences for killing babies then they wouldn't do it. But there is no such thing as a universe appearing out of nowhere and there are consequences for slaughtering innocent children. Marriage is a mockery. Yet the churches place their stamp of approval on this racket the lawyers invented. It's all lies. Lies that people in their greed and wickedness want to believe. They hate righteousness and truth and justice and fairness. So guess what? The consequences are coming swiftly and will fall heavily upon this generation of mankind. There is no rapture like they say. We are not going to disappear one day suddenly out of thin air at any given moment. There is a distinct and written and prophesied timeline of when the Lord will return and when he returns is when the rapture will take place. We will know down to the month and possibly the week of his return. When all the armies of the earth are gathered together to make war against the saints and the Lamb and the armies are gathered together in the valley of Armageddon, before the war is enacted the King of all Kings will split the sky open, every single eye will see him, and the church, the saints, the ones whose names are written in the book of life will be changed and rise to meet the armies of heaven in the clouds and forever we'll be with the Lord. But before the 2^nd coming, before we're changed, before we sudddenly disappear and appear in the clouds, before that the dead in Christ will rise and they will join us in the skies. The earth will shake, there will be fire, there will be slaughter, there will be blood, and not one saint will be harmed when the judgment and wrath of God falls fully upon the wicked who have taken the mark of the beast. We will be present, but we will be on the side that enacts the judgment, not the side who receives the judgment. For the saints are not appointed unto wrath, but the wicked and all those who oppose God will be cut off and cast into hell.

Elysium Rises

MAY 28 2026  Elysium Rises

People are hurting all over the world. I'm hurt. Others are hurt. I received the gift of the unholy internet on March 1997 or thereabouts. My first PC was an early version of windows and I haven't switched since. I like familiar. That's why I wonder why MS has to change every 2 years? I can only guess it's because they make lots of money everytime someone buys a new version of windows. It's always about money isn't it? I mean, how else could Bill Gates become a billionaire? And Paul Allen too. Don't forget Paul Allen. Of course he's dead now and I wonder who inherited his yacht and all his money. I didn't know the man and I can say honestly I never got a dime from him. I reckon by this time in my life that anyone who achieves billionaire status has been vetted thoroughly by TPTB or they don't get to stay billionaires for long. And speaking of billionaires and wicked rulers of the planet, how is it that Soros has lived to be 95? Is there a magic potion that these evil men take that makes them keep living? I know there's all kinds of rumors, like they drink blood, or they get fresh organs from unwilling organ donors, or they drink "Adrenochrome is a chemical compound produced by the oxidation of adrenaline (epinephrine)" From young men and women that they terrorize into releasing adrenaline. Who knows? The depths of depravity that these people are capable of is unfathomable. Just watch a few hollywood horror movies or slash movies from Japan and you'll see what they dream of. Elysium is what they dream of. The movie where all the cattle, the useless human eaters, live in squalor on earth and they live in a paradise in the sky. That's their wet dream. Which would only begin to scratch the surface of what evil they're capable of. As I've stated before, there's a substance or a weapon somewhere that already exists, which is easily capable of destroying all life on earth. They just haven't gotten that desperate yet, or achieved their goal of removing themselves from the planet yet in order to wipe out the earth. It was a James Bond movie. Octopussy? Where the bad guy had all the master genes on a spaceship like the ark and was going to repopulate the earth in his image. No, it was Moonraker. Well I was hurt. Others have been hurt and the hurt goes on. The beat goes on. The beatings will continue until morale improves or we all love big brother or we're all turned into soylent green. But of course, there is a God who is sitting in the heavens above and sees all that occurs on this planet and knows every move we make, every word we speak, and every thought we think. And No ONE, not anyone, no matter how wicked and depraved, is going to end the suffering until God says it's time to end it. Then the Elect will be saved and preserved and what a wonderful, loving, caring, bright world free of sin and suffering they will be able to inherit. God will be firmly in control of the affairs of mankind, through us his children, whom he has appointed to rule and reign in his stead over the sons of men. What a wonderful world it will be! I can't wait. I've already got all the ideas I need to straighten everything out. And Jesus will be my guide unto eternity. I will never again make a mistake or sin a sin against God or man. I'll be washed clean and made perfect in his sight and given the gift of perfection. Ultimate perfection and complete understanding. How wonderful it will be to understand the real meaning of life. To see clearly the path I should take and have the power to take it. The willingness to follow the right path will always be mine and forever will I rule and reign justly, rightly, perfectly, and happily. And the unholy internet will be no more. The libraries will be cleansed of all filth and all corrupt books and writings will be used to fuel homes. The only book needed will be our Bibles and the only word heeded and proclaimed around the world will be the Word of the Lord. It'll be bright, light, and happy. What a day that will be!

Speed Thrills

MAY 27 2026  Speed Thrills

It is a Wednesday. I forget where we supposedly got the names of the days of the week. Somewhere in Rome I think. Of Latin origin, correct? God made the heavens on a zero day. Remember? It says he formed the universe and it was without organization. So finally he said “let there be light” and there suddenly magically amazingly light appeared. That was Sunday. We recognize Sunday as the very first day of the week. When the Holy Spirit spoke, through the mighty angels, through the cloud and fire that appeared on Mount Sion, through the thunder and lightening, Moses managed to record the words he heard. And the evening and the morning were the first day. And there was light. God created it all and he divided the times and seasons into days and weeks and months and years. And we have further divided the days into hours, minutes, and seconds. I read somewhere in a Superman comic book many years ago when I was but a wee lad that the human eye can only see movement up to 1/24^th of a second. If something moves faster than that you can't detect it. So they started flashing brief glimpses of popcorn on the movie screens at the drive ins so you would subconsciously get hungry for buttery, mouthwatering popcorn cooked in peanut oil. But Superman could move faster than the speed of light so he could actually appear to be in 2 places at once. I remember the comic book. You could see two of him and maybe what the comic was portraying (it is difficult to remember because it was a very long time ago if you measure time in years) is that he could appear as Clark Kent and Superman all at the same time in the same place so no one could guess his secret identity as Superman. Well, that's pretty fast. I remember experiencing something along the lines of subliminal messaging in movies when VHS came out. Scenes that flashed momentarily I would attempt to freeze in the video tape player. I remember catching a scene like that in a movie. And in the movie maker's diseased mind a scene of a blood covered and blood spattered man appeared for just a second. Gross right? Ok. So let's take God. If he created light and he did, then surely he's more powerful than light. He can move faster than light, he can move faster than Superman, so basically this can be one explanation as to why He's invisible to the human eye. God to me is a spirit. I say that not only because the bible says that, but because that's how he communicates to me. By the spirit. I can't see him or hear him, but I can see him and hear him inside me, in my invisible spirit which is the force, the energy that keeps my heart pumping and my body alive. God is pure energy. That's how I envision him. Pure constant all powerful indescribable energy. Life. The life force of all creation. Greater than the sun, the moon, gravity, electricity, light, heat, fire, sound, strength, and anything else that we know of. And greater than anything we don't know of. He is the ALL mighty God. So take it and run with it and let him be God and forget about trying to run your own show, because if it doesn't line up with God's plan, you're going to find out you wasted your entire life on vanity and regret. God is invisible to the human eye but that doesn't mean he's not there. It just means you can't see him. Can you see “love” or “hate” or “fear” or “anger”? But they're real aren't they? They really have effects in the real world don't they? So slow down and listen and incline your ear and let the invisible sound waves of God's word sink down into your heart. There's still time left. We still have time. I know TPTB are trying to speed up everything so we don't have time to be still and listen. I know the cellphones are a mind altering brainwashing device that allow us to entertain ourselves nonstop to the point that our brain loses itself in cyberspace and we lose our souls to MTV and advertising and propaganda and so called information which we feel is vitally important to our existence when in reality it's all useless, valueless noise. Go plant a seed. Watch it grow. Allow God to plant his word in your spirit and become one with him. Don't turn back and don't let go. Seek God and you will find him. I try to talk to God whenever I have the chance. I know the pull of the electronic world is strong. It's very powerful and alluring. It makes my flesh comfortable. But sometimes I just need to shut down and shut it off and listen. I hope I'm able to listen more. I hope I can resist the pull of the electrons whirling through space and across time and the lines of juice that carries itself to my home and my devices. Someday, one day this will fail us. And then what will you do? Where will you go? Who will you turn to? All TPTB have to do is flip a switch and you're dead in the water. A big target. And they want you for the meat grinder and their soylent green. Just don't put your hope in man and if you take the time now to know God, he'll see you through anything and everything that evil men can conceive of to kill us and harm us and hurt us. Fear not those who kill the body or destroy lives, but fear him who controls your eternity in the life after this one. Get to know him and find peace for your soul and rest for your mind and growth and health for your body. Actually, speed kills, movement kills. Because time keeps moving and we can't slow it down. While we move through this time we seek for thrills. Once we become pure energy like God, we'll be moving fast as light and the thrills will never stop. That's groovy baby! Get right and become pure light!

The Avenger

MAY 22 2026 The Avenger
Every life has a purpose. God's purpose is perfect.
1 Sam 26:24 Behold, as your life was precious this day in my sight, so may my life be precious in the sight of the Lord, and may he deliver me out of all tribulation
Jer 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
and before you were born I consecrated you

    How many babies must die, before this slaughter ends? We, the extension of God's arm, his Body, the voice of the Master in the world, we must petition our God. We must fall upon our face for our sins and stand in the gap for our country. The Lord caused you to be conceived in your mother's womb: not just another girl, not just another boy, but you. He knew your composition, before you were born. He knew the color of your eyes, the shape of your ears, the formation of your teeth, the size of your stature, the number of hairs on your head, and he planned it so. So you were brought into this world. You were not slain, but you were given the chance to live. So you grew up, and then you were born again. You had been spiritually dead through sin. Thank the Father God and the Lord Jesus Christ, he came to you, and life eternal was born in your spirit. Once his Spirit joined yours, a new creature was conceived. Once God brings to life, he bears to birth. God doesn't believe in aborting his children. Once he births, he promises to bring to full stature. The new creation you have become shall grow up to be exactly like Jesus, when at last you shall reach your home in Heaven...Satan has always tried to destroy children. They slew the Hebrew children in Egypt and the wicked still slay children today. Through the violence of abortion, many have perished. But evildoers not only seek to kill the body; they try to kill the soul through the vile filth which is portrayed by our media and taught by our educational system. This shall come to an end. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Chronicles

The reason the world will be judged is clear. God is the avenger of innocent blood and the seas will turn to blood before the great and terrible day of the Lord appears. Have no doubt. Evil will be judged. Only God's remarkable grace and patience has held back the flood. But because men refuse to repent that day draws ever nearer, when the wicked will be consumed by the fire of his breath.

More Than Conquerors

May 21 2026  More Than Conquerors

"The Kingdom of Christ, being spiritual, is stronger than any physical, material power, and thus it has the capacity to conquer the world. The Kingdom of God is, has always been, and always will be greater than any power known to man. Jesus demonstrated this power while he lived with us on earth and when he left, he commanded us to continue doing the same works he had done.
The task of all believers is to establish the Kingdom of God in the earth today, so the reality of his Kingdom may be seen by all. Because the Kingdom of God is invisible and is present only in the hearts of those who believe in Christ, then how shall we show this Kingdom to the world? By trusting in God's word that's how. If there is one thing Jesus has shown us by his example, if we have learned anything from his life at all, it is that we can completely trust in God's word. God's word can be trusted! If we know nothing else, this alone will be enough to make us victorious in every situation, both now and forever. God can do what his word says he can do, and he is what his word says he is, and God requires us to trust his word, if we are to fulfill our mission of proclaiming the Kingdom of God to the world." -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Reality

My Bible reading today was Psalm 44 "Yet for your sake we are killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered." Romans references this Psalm saying "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." So when life turns tough and seems sour it's when the devil is turning up the heat, then we must rest in the Lord. Our faith is being tested daily while we walk this planet. Is anyone yet Perfect? Have I seen the face of our Lord? Have you? What can we do but walk by faith? Meaning, that whatever happens we will not lose our faith in Jesus' goodness and love. It's love we crave. It's love we need. When I wake up each morning I need a refilling of God's love. I don't want to get out of bed and face another day if I have to do it on my own. I want God's help in everything I do each minute of the day and that's how I get through my days here on earth. It's not going to last forever. All things on this earth will fade away and be demolished and forever be no more. All things. Even the president. Even the ants. Even the cockroaches. Everything gone. All gone. No more. So take yourself to the Lord each day and trust that your Creator has already seen everything you will face today and tomorrow and the next day and so on, and don't be afraid, and don't worry. Every single thing will be all right. If only you trust in Jesus.

Road Trip

May 20 2026  Road Trip

So on this day many years ago (it was a Friday) I drove from Needles, CA to Macon, MO nonstop. According to maps it's roughly 1600 miles and about 22-23 hours. I think I made it in about 25-26 hours. The sun was rising in Kansas City on a Saturday morning when I reached Missouri. I left early in the morning from Needles and it began to turn dark somewhere in Texas I believe and then it didn't get light until I hit Kansas City. I don't know if I could make that trip today at my age and I don't want to try. What I can say is that there was a whole lot less traffic in that year than you see today. The drive was smooth and uneventful because the roads were clear. I have pictures of the drive coming from Arizona and you only see a few cars in the pictures. Times have changed. Tempo Cambia. I used to enjoy driving. I used to love traveling. I used to do a lot of things I don't do anymore. I was young once. Priorities change as our minds and bodies change. According to my best guess, my best calculations, I have about 20% of my life span left to live God willing. I've lived approximately 80% of my life already. That's if Jesus takes his time getting here. That's if God's grace keeps me healthy and alive and breathing. That's if TPTB don't start WW3. or society completely collapses. etc, because these are NOT normal times we live in. They are times that have never existed before in the history of mankind and our universe. Never before has man had the potential to destroy every living, breathing creature on this planet, but they do now. You know they do now. Whether they admit or not, they do. And as a result, it could happen any day. That's if we don't first get hit by an asteroid that is big enough to create an extinction level event. But I can tell you that's not going to happen. I'd stake my life on it. I can tell you this too. The extinction level virus or chemical or weapon will never be released either. God has a different plan for mankind than to allow us to eradicate ourselves. The Samson Option will always be only an option. It will never come into play. The Lord will return with all his saints, all his holy angels, all the heavenly hosts, all the armies of heaven will return on the great and terrible day of the Lord and we shall be changed. And the wicked and those who took the mark and those whose name is not in the book of life will all be turned into hell. They will become dust under our feet. Amen.

ETS

May 19 2026 ETS

Many years ago today I threw my boots over the wire, packed my duffel bag, looked at the entrance sign to Fort Ord in my rearview mirror and left Monterey and headed home. It was a Thursday when my ETS date (Expiration of Term in Service) arrived. It was one of the happiest days of my young life. It was the day I had been counting down to for 2 years. I had completed my active duty in the US Army and was a PFC again. I was a literal PFC in rank when I left. But in the case of my ETS, I was a PFC (Proud Frickin Civilian) again. I immediately headed east to Salinas and drove south through the valley, past vineyards, down highway 5 past Bakersfield, then east past Edwards AFB, Barstow, and highway 40 took me to Needles where I spent the night in a cheap motel. The next morning I got up early and drove straight through Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and as the sun rose over Kansas City, I entered Missouri and drove all the way to my mom's to a small town not very far from Hannibal, Missouri. I was tired but happy to finally see home again after those long 2 years. It was the morning of May 21st, a Saturday. All I remember of that long drive was seeing all the scenery of the desert and plains of the parts of the country I had never seen before. The few days I spent at my Mother's were spent relaxing and going fishing with my 2 little sisters. Then I got in my car and headed to Illinois to my Dad's house in a small town south of Joliet. And that's where I spent my 1st year going to college, living with Dad and attending Joliet Junior College. It was good to see him and gramma again. Gramma, who always lived in the same small house in the same small town where I had grown up and always meant home to me. It was good to be free. The years that have passed since that day have been hard on me. I've had good and bad times. Many good memories and many long years of grief and hardships. Life was never what I imagined or dreamed it would be. But I made it. And here I am. God's grace carried me through each and every day. Since I first arrived in this world, to my exit from the Army, to my college and working days, to now. And Now is My Salvation Closer than when I first Believed.

Fort Ord is gone now. The Army closed the base down years ago. There's a college there now where my Army home used to be. I haven't been back there in many, many years. Not since the day I left. Maybe someday before I pass away from this earthly realm, I'll get a chance to see that sign again and reminiscence of all the goodness God has granted me. 

The picture I chose for this post hung on my college apartment wall, on loan from the local library in Champaign, Illinois. It still moves me.

Road to Hell

MAY 18 2026  Road to Hell

  Don't blame God. The Father has provided solutions, answers, assistance, deliverance, help, and a way out of all sorrows, troubles, and afflictions. The help comes from him; for every good gift comes down from the Father of light and with him there is no evil or harm. But in our pride, we go our own way, disregard his commands, and then when something terrible happens we blame God, and when something wonderful happens we take the credit. Pride deceives. We refuse to admit our own faults, and we refuse to acknowledge God for all the good he does. Pride is another word for stupidity, folly, and foolishness. The road to hell is paved with pride. We are too proud to admit that God knows what he's talking about. We can save ourselves, we think. We can provide for ourselves, we think. We can live without God, we think. We think we know best how to run our lives. We're so smart, so selfish, so full of ourselves. We're headed for disaster, because pride leads to destruction.

   When we trust in God, we believe in what we don't see and what we do see we don't trust. What is this life, but an infinitesimally short span of time, as compared to the endless ages of eternity? What we see in the world, what is presented to our senses, the sins, the lust, and such, is what the world believes is the only reality. They believe only the senses can satisfy and make them happy. They believe sin is the spice of life. They believe that if you can't touch, taste, see, hear, or feel something with your physical senses then it must not be real. The world has misplaced faith. Those who have faith in material things are deceived by their senses. They continually deceive themselves, and end up believing in a lie. The deceitfulness of sensual pleasure is such, that the more they indulge in the flesh, the less they are satisfied with the flesh. Like a dog chasing its' tail, they get trapped in a vicious cycle of sin, ever seeking but never finding. But this is all they know to do. There is no other reality for them. But once we find the true God, the God of love, our heart is filled with joy and the more of God we get, the more happy and satisfied we are. This ends our search for the truth. So what we see, we don't believe, and what we can't see, this we honestly believe in.  -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Reality

Passage of Time

 May 15 2026 Passage of Time

If you give up, you'll never get there. Heb 10:36

    There has to be a better way to live. When will this life be over and done? What is there to live for here? Sometimes life seems to be a waste of time. But God put us here, it was his call, so what can we do about it? This is what we've got to do about it. We've got to be happy. We've got to be free. We've got to be who we were meant to be. We were created by God and he doesn't make any junk. We're not hairless, evolutionary dogs walking on two legs. Others might act like they are, but not us. You came out of the mind of God. Sure, your parents had something to do with it, but you were only one of the endless possibilities which could have arisen out of their union. Think about the patience of God. Since Adam and Eve, God's been waiting for you. He had a plan for you since time began. You were not an accident waiting to happen. From your first two parents, you've had a long line of ancestors who had to come into being so you could be here today. Think of the value of a life to God. Think of the wars, famines, diseases, and other trials your ancestors had to survive for you to be here today. Let your mind ponder for a moment the mighty acts of God. You couldn't be a mistake. The odds are too great against you being here, for you to be a chance happening. So what is your life on earth, but a vapor and then a returning home to the Creator?

    God's been waiting on you. He's waiting on you to do something with your life. You won't go home or leave this place, until you do something about God's will. You thought you were waiting on God. You thought all these years you had something coming to you. The Lord and the world owed you something. All your life you've been waiting on him to do something for you, while all the time he's been waiting on you to do what he told you to do. Are you tired of waiting for what you want to happen, to happen? Are you tired of living your dream? How about living God's dream for you? --excerpt from my book Kingdom Chronicles.

Destiny Awaits

May 14 2026 Destiny Awaits

    We have to somehow convince people that God really loves them and has a much better life for them; both now and in eternity. We were destined to be ambassadors for Christ. As we continue our journey down the path the Lord has laid out for us, all the places it will take us we can't say, but where it will eventually lead us, we know for sure. It will lead us to the everlasting arms of a loving God, and an endless existence filled with joy. This is our destiny and this is where we're going, and the world isn't going to stop us. Jesus is the one wearing the white hat, and he's coming with the cavalry to set his people free. We're going back to Mayberry, only this time we will never have to leave, for we're headed for The Eternal Empire of The Elect, where everything will be just as it should be. It will be exactly like we always wished it would be, where we're free to be anything we want to be, even if that's to be Opie in Mayberry for all eternity.

We have a reason to sing. Psa 96:1-2

    Think about Heaven. Or forget about it, if you like. Think about Heaven. When's the last time you did that? There are too many other things to think about, right? Life's too overwhelming to have time to think about Heaven, right? But the Lord wants us to think about Heaven. What are we supposed to think about it? Remember this one thing: the Lord wants you to be happy every single day because you know you're going to Heaven. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Reality

Out of Nowhere

May 13 2026 Out of Nowhere

God poured out his Spirit freely for all and now he's ours. We were filled with his Spirit and received the power to dream dreams. Not make-believe dreams, but real dreams. Dreams which are not present, but rather, future realities. Through the Spirit, we live in a dream world which is no mere fantasy. This dream world is more real than the world in which we now live, because this dream world will last forever, whereas this waking world is disappearing. We have dreamed God's dreams. We are mortal. We are flesh and doomed to decay. Our flesh will rot along with the rest of the dead. We see our glaring imperfections staring at us every day. Every time our eyes open to see the light of another day, we know the world is not a perfect place because we're still in it, but we shall have peace and we have peace now, simply because in our heart we know we will be like Jesus someday.

   To be like Jesus is the impossible dream for us. Just as impossible as it is for us to raise the dead. Just as impossible as it is for us to know everything there is to know. Just as impossible as it is for us to accomplish all the things we've ever dreamed of doing. Ten lifetimes wouldn't be enough to do all the things we've dreamed of doing. That's the wonderful thing about dreams. We never have to do any work in a dream. We just picture it and it appears. That's the way the Spirit is. He makes things appear out of nowhere. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Chronicles

A Perfect World

May 12 2026 A Perfect World

The human race was created, placed in a perfect world, supplied with everything for their happiness, including the possibility of free choice. This perfect world was known as the garden of Eden. God, in his infinite wisdom, placed before man the choice between life, existence with him, and death, existence without him. Existence apart from God produces exactly what it can only produce--death. God is life. Any step away from God is death. Yet man, unwilling to trust God for their happiness, reached out in exercise of free will and chose death. Eve willingly disobeyed God in order to satisfy her own desire for knowledge and wisdom apart from God. Now, after thousands of years of rebellion against God, we find ourselves living in a corrupted world, awash in death, decay, weakness, disease, ignorance, poverty and hate. God warned Adam and Eve, and he continues to warn us of the consequences of disobedience. Yet we behave like we are going to be the first to get away with rebellion and not die. We have gone mad, truly insane! This is where the exercise of our free will apart from God has taken us. Why do we continue to choose not to trust or believe God's word? Do we think we are stronger than he?
God saw free will as good, so it must be good. We don't have any other God, or any other world to choose from. Can you even comprehend existence apart from the ability to think and choose? When Eve listened to satan, God suffered the hurt of a wounded heart, because he knew she would die. But since God is perfect, he already had a solution for the problem of death. He had already provided in the plan of creation for our possible disobedience. Now, what does that tell us? What it should tell you, and what you must come to realize, is that God is bigger, stronger, wiser, and tougher than any sin or problem mankind could ever face, even death. God's ideal for us was shattered by our walking away from him, but his plan was never changed. His plan remained, and still is the same--he and us living in a perfect world together forever. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Chronicles

Jesus Never Lies

MAY 11 2026 Jesus Never Lies

In the end, the sheep will be separated from the goats. The wheat will be sifted from the chaff. The good trees will be planted and the bad trees will be cut down. There are only two sides to this story. Which side are we on? If we're not sure we're a sheep, then we had better make it right with Jesus and get on the right side. All sheep, those who have trusted Jesus with their souls, are headed for the same place. It matters not where we came from, or what we did, or who we are; none of these distinctions make any difference to Jesus. If we have trusted in him, we are his sheep. If we haven't trusted in him, we are not his sheep. He is no respecter of persons. He is not prejudiced. He is not partial. He cannot be unfair. He leaves the choice up to us, whether or not we want to be his sheep.
   When our spirit is joined once more with the Father, we become sheep again. The old beastly nature is removed. We're his. He's remade us. He takes us and makes us new. The Father sees only Jesus and his sacrificial blood, when he sees us. He doesn't see our sins, faults, and failures. He talks to us like we're his friends. He helps us, leads us, feeds us, keeps us. What more could we want? He does chasten us when we do wrong, and he reprimands us when we fail, but his love for his sheep never changes, never ends, and will never fade away. We're glad we've found this truth. We're glad we can be unafraid before God. We're glad we have his free gift of salvation, which we did not earn and which we could never pay for. God is not a man. He cannot lie. He loves his sheep as much as he loves his only begotten Son. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Reality

Karnal Knowledge

MAY 9 2026 Karnal Knowledge

What I remembered in my reading this morning was the old christian ladies I've encountered on my stay here on earth. There's a different spirit. I accept that spirit. It's the spirit of the Lord. I felt it and have felt it. It's the world we're going to when we have our resurrected or transformed bodies. They won't be old ladies anymore. I remember the one old lady who lived on a farm that gramma took me to visit that one and only time. a few years later I was gramma's dependent, living with her getting drunk, getting high, running around with the ladies, and not knowing what I was going to do with my life. A hopeless case. I had forgotten what it was like to be a young boy. I had years prior discovered carnal knowledge and it had already ruined my prospects for a normal, happy life. I wasn't able to ever process the new information or knowledge I had gained. I was a torn and broken man from that day forward. I'll never be whole again like I was when we visited those old ladies. I remember 2 distinctly prior to puberty. the one gramma took me to visit and the whittington's later who belonged to the baptist church. that old lady and her husband had that same spirit. one of love and peace and you could feel it in the house. Just like I could feel it in the house gramma took me to. Later I felt it again when we visited one of my friend's Aunt's home down south. Another old saint. I felt it. That peace. Prior to that I felt it when Kent and I visited an older couple in the area around West Plains, MO when I visited his home that Thanksgiving. I felt that comfort, that peace, that quiet love, joy and happiness that abode in their home and in their hearts. It was a feeling to where I didn't want to leave their house and I wanted to go back to again and again. I've never felt that on my own. Not since I discovered that carnal pleasure was the way to have a family. and that's what life is all about. Pleasure. Pleasure I never knew except a few brief moments in my life. The rest of my life has been pain. Or just surviving. Enduring. striving and struggling. fighting and hanging on. but I still remember and the memories of those few fleeting moments gives me hope. Hope that when I die I'll finally be able to go home and find that same peace, joy, and love that I felt in those homes among those dear saints; eternally and never leave. All because of JESUS. We have this one hope, this one love, this one spirit, this one savior, and whenever we encounter that spirit we know we are with family. We live not by hope, but by faith. So this is why we endure suffering in the flesh. It's so we can become worthy of this calling which is eternal happiness in the Presence. By His Grace alone are we saved. Carnal knowledge not caramel knowledge. that's sweet.

WAKE UP!

May 8 2026  WAKE UP!

In the book of Revelation it speaks of those who take the mark of the beast. The mark of the beast is a visible mark because without it you won't be able to buy or sell. The mark involves the number 666 which is the number of man. Whether everyone will have the number 666 tattooed on their forehead or hand remains to be seen, but it involves that number which is "the number of his name." We will see how that will come to pass. But as time goes on, and I have watched society devolve into what it is today and see how as we follow this track it will only degrade further, I realize something. I realize people will only discover after it's too late that the end is here. It's always a sign of impending judgment that people are never aware that judgment is coming. But what's worse is that people, even when faced with judgment, when faced with death and disaster, they refuse to wake up and change their ways. Revelation repeats the phrase that even for all the punishments that fall upon the earth from heaven, instead of repenting men will curse God. Instead of admitting their own sins, mankind will blame God for their suffering. Sad, bad, and mad times we're living in. I don't live each day expecting disaster to strike, but I do try to live each day aware of God's grace and the fact that whatever I may be going through in life, this life will soon be over and forever I'll be with him in glory. Knowing that judgment is soon to fall, you would think that people would repent and come to Jesus. But it's just the opposite. They become more hard as the world grows more defiled. It's why inevitably God's judgment must fall. Because if men will no longer repent, they will no longer be allowed to go on doing evil. God cares for people and he will not allow evil to exist forever. Evil must come to an end. This is the promise and hope given by the coming kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. Evil will end and the earth will experience the Eden that was meant to be. And finally, there will be a new heaven and new earth where evil will never enter or even be in our consciousness. It will be as if it never existed at all. But hell awaits all those who refuse to repent. So wake up and be ready, because today could be that day.

Life is Gravy

MAY 7 2026 Life is Gravy

Our lives have been made unnecessarily difficult. We have an enemy who never ceases to cause evil and strife in the world. He prowls about like a lion seeking for the weak and defenseless and preys on them. In our childhood we have parents who are to act as our protectors in this world. That is their role in our life. To create us, care for us, and protect us. As we age they are to guide us. They are to instruct us. They are to discipline us and teach us responsibility and prepare us to face the battleground that is the world. They are our guardians until such a time as we reach adulthood and go out into the world on our own. If we haven't been taught or we don't understand that the world we were born into is a battleground, then they haven't done their job. As a young man facing the world, I had a belief that once I got out from under my parent's thumb, life would be a bowl of gravy. I would be fine making my own way in the world. But I was not prepared for what I faced. I had been shielded from the realities of the world I lived in. It was nice of my parents to somehow shield me from some of the harshness of the world, but it was a failing of not only my parents, but of society that I entered the outside world somewhat clueless as to how it operated and the reality of the true nature of our existence. I was tricked when I was confronted with situations I had never encountered before in my young life and I was driven off the safe path and took a more dangerous road. I was not going to submit to the circumstances the world had placed before me and I was going to conquer and do whatever I wanted and overcome these limitations. I never truly knew the full power and determination of my enemy, the one who has deceived the entire world. I didn't realize I was a target. After many, many years and times of trials, I understood that life above all is the staging ground for a higher spiritual warfare and I must submit to the rules. God makes the rules. I need to hear and obey. If I don't, I will suffer the consequences. I surrendered finally after my own strength and wisdom had failed me. I am not smarter than God and I am not stronger than the devil, either. I have to have God's help in this battle of life. With God I am an overcomer. I will not insist on having my own way. I will submit. I will accept what life has given me today as the will of God for my life. Whoever and whatever comes my way I will trust in Him to take care of me. I wish everyone knew this simple fact. That God is in control and if you submit to his control life will yield eternal rewards, even if you face suffering and sorrow in this present world. Believe and the mountain must move! Nothing is impossible with God on my side! I am more than a conqueror.

Satan's Kids

MAY 6 2026 Satan's Kids

When satan's children stole 2,000,000,000,000 dollars from the American people to cover their losses in the rigged gambling system they call wall street, I knew our country was doomed. Especially when no one was arrested. Nothing happened. It was the largest theft in mankind's long history and no one blinked. How did I know we were doomed? Because I realized 2 things. One, they knew they could get away with anything, even murder, if they wanted to. Secondly, I knew they would never stop or relinquish their power. They had completely taken over our country and now it was obvious. Every single man and woman in the senate and congress are their money slaves and if anyone dares go against them they never reach DC or they get erased. Why is theft this huge allowed to occur in a nation supposedly governed by the rule of law? Because they did it under the guise of law. They did it under the pretense that it was for our own good. If they couldn't steal the money they said the entire country would collapse and there would be utter chaos and ruin and riots and starvation and death and destruction. And they got away with it. That's the amazing thing. A very very small group of people run the world. And everyone else in power under them is their minion. The rest of us are just useless eaters to them. Why is the world like this? Why? Why didn't people listen? Why don't people wake up? Why have we elected such a corrupt group of people to lead us? Why is there no one that will help us? If you open your eyes you'll see that many people tried to help us, but we either wouldn't listen or they were silenced. Silenced, many of them by murder. Beginning with JFK. The man who dared stand up to them. And not only stand up to them, but posed a real threat because of his popularity and charisma. It's all written down in their documents, in their plans. If anyone dares oppose them they already wrote what would happen to them. They would be removed. And so it is. A nation that slaughters it's own children and calls it a right, doesn't deserve to exist. And thus in the times ahead of us as we slowly watch our paper currency's value being eroded, none of us will be able to afford to live and most likely there will be nothing on the store shelves to buy anyway. The world is going to war. It's what TPTB want. They want you dead. They want what you have. They will kill, steal, destroy, starve, infect, and crush you because that's satan's nature and they are his servants and they hate you and they hate mankind and you will die. Whether you like it or not, you will die. Choose whose side you will side with now, before it's too late. When evil reaches it's peak, then the Lord will return to save the Elect and forever the wicked will rule no more. Their day is coming. We must wait. Isaiah said:

"Therefore, the Lord GOD says this, “Listen carefully, My servants will eat, but you will be hungry; Indeed, My servants will drink, but you will be thirsty; Indeed, My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame."

GOD IS HAPPY

MAY 5 2026 GOD IS HAPPY

The vision given to the prophets declares that the earth will be saturated with the knowledge of the Lord--the knowledge of his glory, his love, his grace, his righteousness, and his power. It is this knowledge which gives men eternal life. Eternal life has been the dream of all the saints, from the time of Enoch, right up to the present hour. We yearn to be reunited with our Maker and he longs to be reunited with us. We want him to rule and reign over all the earth, because he will bring us back to Eden. Christ's return will restore the earth to the way it was always supposed to be since the beginning.
    Our leader, the Son of God, often spoke of his coming Kingdom. He warned us to be ready for his return. We must focus our sights on this, putting his Kingdom first place in our heart. Allowing God to take first place in our life, changes us and those around us. We must find our place and our purpose in the great plan of our Father to restore righteousness to the earth. We must fulfill our destiny. We all have a part to play in God's master plan. To fulfill his divine purpose for our life will bring us the greatest happiness we will ever know on this earth. And when we're happy, God is happy. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Chronicles

PEACEFUL HARBOR

MAY 4 MONDAY 2026  PEACEFUL HARBOR

   Moses had a brother named Aaron to help him. You have a big brother named Jesus. With Jesus by your side, is there anything you can't do? The Father longs to see all people united under the banner of his Son and under the promise of eternal life he brings. His plan is to reach out to all those who are hungry and thirsty for his Kingdom. Once our eyes are open to his plan, we can see how everything around us is working toward the goal of God's Kingdom. Jesus has a promised land better than that of Canaan. He has a city greater than that of Jerusalem. As much greater as heavenly things are than earthly things. As people recognize Jesus as the King of Heaven, they will see he has a better way for them to live. They will see he has something good, something great, and something wonderful planned for them. They will be drawn to him, as they see him lifted up. When they see Jesus lifted up, they will know he is the way, the truth, and the life. He is the way leading to God. He is the truth leading to happiness. He is the life leading to peace, joy, and love. Praise him, because he is good to all, but he has been especially good to you!

The only one who never changes is the Lord. Heb 13:7-8

Jesus is the rock when your life is shaky. He is the peaceful harbor when you are at your wit's end. He is your righteousness when the accuser hurls accusations at you. He is your mother when no one else cares for you. He is your father when you are destitute and helpless. He is your brother when no one else understands you. He is your sister when you have no one else to talk to. He is your friend when all others have forsaken you. He is your banker when you are down to your last dime. He is your motivator when you are tired of trying. He is your ambition when you see nothing worth striving for. He is your life when you don't feel like living. He is your strength when you can't even lift up your head. He is your joy in the midst of pain and agony. He is your protector when enemies surround you like a pack of wolves. He is your one and only hope in the face of disaster. He is your last chance when it looks like you don't have a chance. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Reality

Pay Attention

MAY 2 2026 Pay Attention

Struggle does not have to be our lot in life. Life can be easy. We can be powerful warriors for Christ, if only we abide in him. As we abide in the presence of the Lord, as we rest in his power and draw our strength from him, as we recognize him continually as our source of strength, then we will find that there is no struggle at all. When our faith is such that we have no doubt God is working everything out for our good and for his glory, then life can be just as easy as praising and thanking God for everything. Victory is continuous and sweet for those who walk in faith and eager hope and constant expectation, and as we join with fellow believers our fortitude grows even stronger.

    It seems easy to ignore God and neglect our devotion to him, but there is a high price to be paid for being slothful with our faith. We should rather love God wholly and serve him fully, and pay the price in time and effort to commune with him and reap the rewards of a faithful soldier. We should not be wrapped up in the affairs of this life, in order that we may be free to follow him who has chosen us to be in his service. If our attention is torn in two directions, toward Heaven and toward earth, we will lose our balance in both worlds. Doubt will assail us in the world, and fear will assail us when we approach Heaven. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Chronicles 

Descent into Darkness

 MAY 1 2026  Descent into Darkness

The unbelieving world is descending into darkness and rebellion against our great King. They are rejecting his offer of friendship and eternal life. They are turning their back on our Lord and going their own way, and all the while satan is deceiving them. They are wallowing in their own sin and their own blood. They consider the blood of Christ to be of no value to them. They mock and disregard the good news of the Kingdom. But it makes no difference what the world may do, the Body of Christ is going to be victorious. Christ will never let us down, even to the last day. We will always be safe in him.
   Let the world go on their merry way. It will not stop us from proclaiming the good news to every man, woman, boy, and girl. Christ demands that his word be preached. Christ works only by his Spirit, through the power of his word. Christ backs only his word, and he will back nothing but his word. The prophets have already told us what to expect and what will happen. The apostles have already told us what we must do. Christ waits for us to believe him, and follow the plan he has laid out for us. He stands waiting to act on the behalf of all who put their trust in him. Christ will give us the Kingdom. We needn't worry about that. What we must focus on is to take others with us. What we must strive for is the proclamation of this message. What we must seek after is the salvation of those around us. We must share this good news with them so they might believe and be saved. Christ will help us. Christ is on our side. Christ Jesus fights for us. -- excerpt from my book Kingdom Reality

Make Reservations

 APRIL 30 2026  Make Reservations

God, I know, would want everyone to have the same confidence in him which he has given to me. With such confidence you can face any situation in life. Though life may present you with things you may not expect, and things may happen to try your trust in God's love, you know that his love, not your strength, will always bring you through to the place of peace and rest. God's will is for everyone to have this peace in their heart. Why can't people grasp the simple truth that God only wills good for his creation? Is it because they do not know the devil has sown evil in the world and in their hearts, and blinded their eyes to the truth? If God did not want only good for us, it would be impossible for us to know any good at all. Yet men go on their merry way in life, never pausing a moment to reflect on God's desire to have a place in their life, meanwhile they enjoy all the pleasures and provisions he made for them to enjoy. This leads us to the most utterly amazing, most difficult to honestly, truly, and firmly grasp characteristic of God, which is this: his love for us is the same regardless of what we do or how we act. And it is out of this same love that he gives us the choice to turn our back on him, and hate our fellow man, and despise his goodness to us. A disobedient child can be forced to obey, but in his stubborn heart he can still despise the authority.
    So out of love, Jesus Christ will come in ultimate power and separate the evil from the good, and so demonstrate his love toward those who have chosen to be with him forever, and they will be with him forever protected from every evil person and every evil influence. This is sad news for the rebellious, but good news for the believing ones. Love is kind, but love is also just. So as I realized in that moment of overwhelming tranquility that life would not always be like this, and I would have to go out and endure the evils present in the world, I also knew that in the end my God of love would cut off all evil from his presence, and keep me from all evil forever. Talk about a vacation. This one will be worth waiting for. I've got my reservation made! Get yours today! --excerpt from my book "Kingdom Chronicles"

I Surrender

APRIL 29 2026  I Surrender

Repentance is thinking in reverse of wrong. So turn your mind around and listen to Jesus. Luke 6:24; Eze 33:11; Phil 1:21

    All we had to do to make a new start was surrender our old thinking to a new way of thinking. We could not keep on filling our mind with fear, anger, and rebellion. We finally realized nothing would change if we did. The pain would never go away if we didn't change. We finally surrendered our pride. We had nothing worth having, so we had nothing to lose. This is where most people miss God's plan for their life. They never get to the place of surrender. They never experience enough pain or discomfort in their lives to be willing to go a different direction. How pathetic to be rich in this life only. How sad to be glad only for such a short span. Earthly glory passes so quickly. Only the poor in spirit will inherit the Kingdom of God.

We had become poor in spirit. We were emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually bankrupt, and we were willing to admit it. This is what Jesus meant when he said "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matt 5:3). There is no new life, no new beginning, without first forsaking the old ways, habits, and ideas. Repentance is a change of heart, a renewing of the mind, a heading toward different goals, a turning around. Repentance is surrender to another master. Surrender means no more fighting, no more rebellion, no more striving.

If someone comes against us with ten thousand troops and we are only one, then it is best to surrender and ask for terms of peace. We have fought the fight alone against ten thousand, although satan was both our ally against God and the foe of our own good. We never attained the happiness or found the peace we were searching for, on our own. When we surrendered, we found God's terms of peace to be quite congenial. We had tried to change things we could never succeed in changing, but with God on our side, we found we did not have to fight anything or anyone again. We found we did not have to worry about outcomes. We found we did not have to strive to achieve our goals.

Life is But a Dream

APRIL 28 2026 Life is But a Dream

Life can be a vacation if we rest in the Lord.
John 14:27; 2 Cor 12:1
I'm thinking of a time and place where everything was as it should be. It's sometimes impossible to put into words our own experiences. Language has its' limitations. We live in a physical world dominated by our bodily senses. Our language reflects this. But we are also spiritual beings, and there is a world which exists beyond the realm of our five physical senses. Our language is limited in its' capacity to describe this world. So in describing spiritual or non-physical experiences, we are hampered in communicating these experiences to others by the written or spoken word.
    Nonetheless, I will attempt to describe to you my own experience as best I can. As I said, I am thinking of one particular moment in time when everything was as it should be. By this I mean, as best as I can describe it, that I was in Heaven on earth. Heaven is what we, as creatures made in the image of a living God, were made for. Heaven is the only state of existence which man originally was created to know and enjoy. Heaven was designed as man's natural habitat.
    God must have felt lonely. God made us so he could fellowship with us.  He made us to have someone to talk to, someone to share his feelings, his thoughts, and his whole life with. But the fellowship God desired was not based solely on communication or speech. Our Creator's means of revealing himself to us is found in everything he created. He created a universe filled with sights, sounds, sensations, and infinite facets of beauty. He gave to us a tangible expression of his love as the backdrop to forming a relationship with us.

The Answer is Plain

APRIL 27 2026  The Answer is Plain

You're alive for a reason and the reason can't be to suffer through life. You shouldn't have to live with pain. It shouldn't be hard to live. No one has it as hard as you have had it; so we all imagine at one time or another. But in your case, it's true, right? Then there are those poor souls who actually end up taking their life. What drives a person to such extremes? How does a person lose all hope? This seems to be a problem in today's world; people losing all hope. The answer friend is blowing in the wind, they once said. If we had a hammer we'd hammer out the answer and it would sound like this: love is the key to all the mysteries of life. Love erases all pain, all hopelessness, all suffering. Love compensates for all the injustice inflicted upon one person by another. In other words, love makes it all worthwhile. Just for a moment imagine that everybody in this world loved you. Would that answer some of your questions? Well, this is just what God wants everybody to do. Now can you see that God's love is the ONLY answer?
   Love treats everybody the same. We need to recognize that we all should have to play by the same rules. One rule applies to all, the law should say. No one should have the right to take advantage of another person, but that's not the way it is. Lawyers make up laws to take advantage of others, because they claim someone else has an unfair advantage over others, even when these someone's aren't breaking any of the rules. The lawyers have put another lie over on us, so they can take more money, freedom, and power away from us. Their definition of unfair advantage is an illusion invented by the lazy to attack the industrious, created by the envious to crush the prosperous. This is only one example where the wicked have twisted the law to take advantage of others and it just isn't fair. Who said life is fair? Are lawyers any different from the rest of us? Is everybody else walking in love? Someone is always trying to put someone else down. Someone is always trying to take advantage of the next guy. The world is at each other's throats and the parasites in society love to have it this way. As the Lord said, try to avoid the parasites and hypocrites and don't toss away your pearls. They'll only crush you and grind your pearls in the muck.

In Good Time

APRIL 25 2026   In Good Time

From ages past, from time immemorial, since eternity, before time began, before the world began, before the ages began, we were chosen in him to be saved. This is Timothy's words: "He gave us this grace by means of Christ Jesus before the beginning of time" And so in the fullness of time God sent his son to be born of a virgin, formed in the womb, and born according to the scriptures of the seed of David in the town of Bethlehem. And now in these, the final hours of the age, his word is being fulfilled before our very eyes as the judgment draws near to finally eradicate the wicked from the earth and make way for the meek to inherit the planet. When Christ shall be crowned Lord of Lord and King of Kings and reign from the great day of his appearing to the infinities of infinity, a kingdom that shall have no end. It was a long time ago that the Creator and the son and the spirit devised their plan to create and elevate and rescue the race of man, made in their own image, placed in a vast universe, watched over by heavenly beings, cradled in God's love. So the plan came into being at the sound of his voice and there was light. I remember nothing though before I was a small child. Time began for me roughly around 1959. I turned 1 just before Christmas 1958. I don't remember that first Christmas. I do remember bits and pieces after that. I distinctly remember getting a train set for my 2nd Christmas. But to think I'm just one piece in a massive puzzle, one thread in an enormous tapestry, one star in a vast sky, one soul in a world of people, and yet Christ died for me. And he planned this in an eternity of time before I was ever born. Finally it happened. The great day of my arrival. Just 1 among billions of other souls. But precious to him nonetheless. That's the value of a human soul to our Creator. Who does nothing and creates nothing that is worthless or without his own purpose and design. I feel amazed when I stand in the presence. What happened before I arrived I only know through books and through stories of others. But what my bible taught me is by far the most valuable knowledge I have ever or could ever gain while walking this dirty rock. More precious than gold, more valuable than silver. This the greatest treasure of my life is the written and spoken and immortal word of God. For the word of God is the very heart and spirit and will of the Creator. For he speaks and it becomes. The times before me seemed ever distant as a child. Our fathers walked this planet and were erased by a flood. Then they spread out again over the earth and were scattered to the four corners of the world and then my ancestors built nations and grew kingdoms and explored the world and traveled far until they came here to America. By then homes had been built and food grown and societies formed and churches raised and machines built that made the world the one I knew and grew into. TV shaped my image of the world outside our little town and school helped me learn to read and write and add and think of my purpose in all this. But it was the preacher who opened the bible and showed me the truth that brought light to my darkened mind and opened my eyes to see that I could have God in my life and He would be my Savior and Friend. And that meant so much to me that all history existed solely so I could be present at that moment to find my Creator and his purpose for my life, which is to live in heaven forever with him. So those cowboys served their purpose. Those brave soldiers who perished out in the deserts of the southwest and fought back the indians fulfilled their cause and forged a great country for me that I might live to hear the word of my salvation that day. And I enjoyed watching them on my TV as they fought back the enemy and won the battle. The bad guys always wore black and the good guys always wore white. So that way you could spot them a mile away. But in the end the good guys always won. Isn't that the way it's supposed to be? "And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses" Rev 19:14. I'm so glad I'm on the winning side.
