needs doing

look at all the lonely people, look at how they sigh. look at how they laugh, look at how they have pleasure, but no joy, how they have laughter, but no eternal comfort... how they have friends they don't trust, partners they don't love, jobs they don't belong to, lives they'd rather not lead... look at all these people... look at how they lead their lives aimlessly, half-heartedly, look at how they die more and more each day as their livelihood drains their life... look at how they look with envy, with jealousy, with malice, with contempt, with sadness, with defeat, with souls crushed, hearts broken, dreams shattered, relationships asunder... look at all these people.. God says, 'look all at my children, look at how lonely they are.. look at how they don't know Me... look at them... how can you let them carry on in that state... this is not the Life i want them to lead..'

Life, and Life more abundantly.... There is no true joy apart from God... the devil has not attacked lazy christians for ages... as long as they keep the good news to themselves... this is a matter of life and death.



"Come, come," He calls you, "O soul oppressed and weary,

Come to the shadows of My desert rest;

Come walk with Me far from life's noisy discords,

And peace will breathe like music in your breast."

-alone with God. from The Still Hour


as i walked along the path, i saw a man looking longingly at the streams of the river... what he wished for, i do not know.. but i saw his eyes, and there was no hope left in them..


"The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few." - Matt 9:37

"What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops." - Matt 10:27

"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house....let your light shine amoung men." - Matt 5:14-16
