Psalm 34:7-10 KJV The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. O fear the Lord , ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing... I'm feeling pretty good today, there really isn't much left to say... To tell the truth I kinda feel good everyday because the Angel of The Lord serves me in every way, no matter where I stay... Be it here or be it there... When I'm up or when I'm down; still, the Angel of The Lord just hovers around... In God alone do I trust, so there is really no need rush, I'll just sit here and patiently wait, for God to approve the date, that I no longer must feel this ache.... But until that day should come, you won't catch me twiddling my thumbs... I'm steady in the trenches... Digging all these ditches... ...

To whom to you belong? I mean who is in control of your feelings, emotions, heart, mind, and soul? Is it yourself? Is it just time and chance? Is it the one who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy you? The truth is for many of us, we just don't know... For much of my life, I knew that there was a "god", I knew that we just didn't appear here on earth one day, but as far as having a "god" to whom I belonged was a foreign thought to me, I just didn't get it... I lived my life from one moment to the next, not really giving much thought to how the way I lived affected those around me; honestly, I didn't even care how my lifestyle affected myself, but one day, that would all change, I would have a God encounter... It was a point in my life in which everything had begun to unravel, my job, my personal life, everything... I can remember my mom telling me that unless I gave it to God, the troubles of my life at that point would eventually overcome me... ...

Chaos everywhere... Financial crisis after crisis... Terrorist attacks and war, everywhere... Just read about a young man who had fought for our freedom in the US military only to be murdered in his own home... Why do these things happen? What's going on? And what can I do about it? Well these are great questions, but in order to answer them, we must first discover the root of these problems, and that is sin... When Eve ate the forbidden fruit, offered it to Adam, and he ate it as well, sin entered the blood stream of mankind; therefore, as descendants of Adam, we are born sinful creatures... Now that we have established that we are born sinful creatures, we must also establish a truth that directly connects sin and death... Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord... The wages of sin are death, that is the reason why there is so much terror, death, destruction, and mayhem... The sin of man has opened the doo...

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want, He markets me to lie in green pastures, He Restoreth my Soul... But you see, He wants to restore you too... Christ Jesus sacrificed Himself on the cross for not only me, but for you and you and you and you! That's right, everyone! Christ Jesus gave up His life freely, no one could take it from Him, but He gave it up freely... And not just for the believers, not just for the "church people" but for the guy on the bar stool passed out, the man living under the bridge, and the ladies of the night, everyone.. He has a plan for you, no matter what the obstacles in your life are, no matter what "stain" is smeared over the cloth of your life... " and the other sheep I have ,which are not of this fold: them also I must bring" that's you! Maybe you do not attend church on a regular basis, or maybe you do not attend any church at all, well Christ Jesus died for you too.. Give Christ a chance, accept Hi...

Faith is defined as confidence or trust in a person or thing, belief that is not based on "proof", or belief in God or in religious doctrine... (Dictionary.com) However, according to the Word of God, Faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things unseen... Heb 11:1 Faith, what a powerful word, and what a powerful thing, Faith can move mountains, Faith can heal the sick, Faith can open blinded eyes, and Faith can define who we are... Habakkuk 2:4 ...but the Just shall lively Faith... Romans 1:17 For by it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. Hebrews 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith... Faith! It is what we live by, it defines us, it defeats cancer, diabetes, lymphoma, it helps us overcome heartache, heart breaks, and the heaviness of this world, and ultimately, Faith guides us, it keeps us, it reassures and comforts us... Faith carried me when the world I was living i...

Psalm 23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever... In this troublesome hour, we must stand in the Promises of God... He has said time and time again that He will be with us through the valleys, that He would restore us, and that He would both protect us and comfort us... This is my Prayer for Boston, for West, and for the World, that God would begin to move, that He would make His presence known among men, that all those who are hurti...
