When lovingly and graciously
speaking truth to a soul in
need is not as important as
being politically correct we
as a nation, as a people,
as a church, as the precious
body of Christ, as salt in
the world are becoming
spiritually darkened.

For lovingly, tenderly,
compassionately, graciously
speaking truth to ourselves first
and than to each other honors Christ.

And if when dealing with others
we cannot humbly say, there
by the grace God I, we should
not harshly speak and wound
a precious soul our Triune
God is trying to reach.

Yet there is a delicate
balance and such sober
warnings given to us by
our Savior when we call
evil good and good evil.

Father grant your people
the delicate grace-filled
Spirit given tender discerning
balance of love and truth when
dealing with a precious soul.

And may we as your precious
church first start with the
I found in me before we
find fault with each other.

For speaking the truth in love we
can always, as our Savior’s
representatives, maintain
the dignity of a soul while
graciously speaking truth.

For this is the example that
our Savior lived. May we live
as He lived. May we walk in His
ways so our joy can be complete.

Beyond the blessings of earthly grace
given by mortal humanity there is one
source of unmerited favor that far
outweighs the grace and mercy of all
men and it is the never-ending, limitless,
unmerited grace,Cross procured favor
of our love-filled Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ. For our merciful Savior
is always there to lavishly, ceaselessly,
unconditionally give out His mountainous
grace to His royal heirs time after time
after time after time. For Christ, our Savior
pours out to His children His immense divine
and royal graces and favors freely without measure.
For He is not a respecter of persons but loves
all men well and invites all to the banquet table
of His Grace through the Cross.For He is our God
and His grace is the bejeweled Crown of resilient
beauty worn humbly by sinners now saints with a
great sense of unmerited, redemptive, royal gratitude
for all of the beauty found in salvation’s gift,Emmanuel!

Early in the morning
in all kinds of weather,
I often see on the tip-top
of a beautiful tree a tiny,
joy-filled, luminous song bird
singing mightily, victoriously,
jubilantly to their Creator,Savior
and King with glorious, symphonic
songs of worshipful praise and
adoration for all to visibly see.

I want to be that tiny,grace-filled,
humble bird of continual praise
perched high upon the tip top of
the trees who always leads others
to the rock that is higher than I
by continuously singing, praising
and adoring my Savior by graciously
welcoming, sharing and pursuing others
with salvations hope and love filled song,
I am redeemed! I am redeemed!I am redeemed!

I want to be that tiny, grace-filled,
humble bird of continual praise
perched high upon the tip top of
the trees who always leads others
to the rock that is higher than I!

In every moment of our day,
In every season of our lives,
through our triune God,
there is always hope.
There is always love,
There is always mercy.
There is always forgiveness.
There is always grace.
There is always strength.
There is always joy.
There is always victory.
There is always a new beginning.
There is always His comfort.
There is always His gentle dove
in our hearts teaching us His
eternal, incomparable ways of love.

Does not the flowering lacy tree,
who thought Spring had come,
yet finds its beauty covered
again and again and again
by wintry storms of ice and snow,
does not the flowering lacy tree
because of the Savior’s tender
loving plans find themselves
even more beautiful and blessed
than before? For unexpected winter
ice and rain and storms may break
off a bloom or branch or cut down
a tree but even in this we can know
and trust that our loving, omniscient
Father and Savior has a beautifully
magnificent purpose and plan. For our
blessed Triune God doeth all things well.

There is nothing more beautiful
in a soul where Christ is first
and self because of daily death is last.

Around the life of every Saint of God from young to old is a beautiful, ornate, Baroque, exquisite frame of gold, Christ our crucified and resurrected Savior whose beauty only grows, whose height,length, depth,breadth, and very breath divinely supplies,enfolds, succors the Saints of God with everlasting light,love, joy, and hope,filling,framing, surrounding, embossing, every life in Christ with our glorious Triune God’s ceaseless beauty,divinity,serenity,boldness,joy,and gentle servant humility like a endless, majestic sunrise that has no end. A perpetual beauty in our souls is Jesus Christ, our crucified, risen, victorious triumphant,living, one and only King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
