There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.”

Proverbs 12:18 (KJV)

In such a time as this,

the tongue of the wise

who brings true, authentic

Christ-centered, glorified,

discreet healing and the

gift of verbal graciousness

and kindness without

arrogantly trumpeting

to all is the most sought

after looked for jewel that

is truly and tragically rare

and more, and more, and

more impossible to find.

As I stepped out on the

dewy, diamond laden

green emerald grass,

a tiny wildflower

peeped out with

it’s Christ-created

royal purple crown,

as if to say, “Good

morning soldier

of the great I AM!”

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?

Romans 8:28-31 (KJV)

There is a sting to pain that cannot always

be painted with a positive golden brush.

For any artist knows that a true masterpiece

can only be created with the dark and light

combinations of highlights and shadows. For

this is what creates enduring and lasting beauty.

And so, this is how God paints Christ-likeness in our

lives with his divine ,Holy, sovereign, beauty creating brush.

And when the dark and shadowy hues are painted in a

Christian’s life, there comes with it the gift of the healing brush

of emunah, called faith that we can boldly and courageously choose .

For when the sting of pain is met with faith in our loving,

Triune God, we can always praise our Redeemer and Creator.

For our sovereign Savior, Lord, ultimate friend, our

all in all, always, always knows what is best for

each and every one of His redeemed and adored,

blood bought Saints. The healing balm and free gift of

Christ given faith, Emunah, gives us all a royal, Heavenly,

throne room demeanor that can turn every earthly sting

into a masterpiece of faith. Emunah! Emunah! Emunah!

And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us. But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.

Luke 23: 39-43 (KJV)

Jesus was and is betrayed over,

and over, and over, and over,

and over, and over, and over

again. And yet His grace, mercy,

and love drenched gospel message

is so tenderly compassionate and

always ceaselessly flowing. “For God

so loved the world that he gave His

only begotton son that whosoever

believeth in Him will not perish but

have everlasting life. Because of our

Savior’s unending grace to each and

every one of us, may we, like our Savior,

live a life that is full of His tender mercy,

compassion, forgiveness, grace, and love.

For when Jesus Christ is our source, His love

in and through us is gloriously unending.

We have the gift of

all gifts, the precious,

Holy Spirit parakletos.

For he will always guide,

come along side us,

extravagantly love us,

advocate, counsel,

comfort, encourage,

transform, convict, and

empower us to follow all

our Savior’s royal, new

creature ways. And if we

truly listen to His still small

voice, we will grow more and

more like Jesus Christ, our Alpha

and Omega Savior and Lord!
