''ALL THINGS IN THE WORLD ARE TWO. IN OUR MINDS WE
ARE TWO -GOOD AND EVIL.WITH YOUR EYES WE SEE TWO THINGS,
THINGS THAT ARE FAIR AND THINGS THAT ARE UGLY..WE
HAVE THE RIGHT HAND THAT STRIKES AND MAKES FOR EVIL, AND
THE LEFT HAND, FULL OF KINDNESS NEXT TO THE HEART.
ONE FOOT MAY LEAD US TO AN EVIL WAY, THE OTHER MAY LEAD
US TO A GOOD. SO ARE ALL THINGS TWO,..ALL TWO.''
..EAGLE CHIEF ''LETAKOTS-LESA''..PAWNEE
Well,...''Happy Veteran's Day'' weekend and a
Big...''Semper - Fi'' Marine's on Our ''Birthday!''...
Wow seems like Yesterday ''We All
was just 'Young Shavers'' in the Service of ''Our Country!''...
I was Thinking a bit about ''Our Warrior's''
serving in 'Harms Way' the way many of Us did a Lifetime ago,..Our Blessed
World War Two Veterans and their effort to keep
this Nation informed, even through today about the Value's of Ethics and
what Freedom is all about....The ''Old Values
and Traditions of Long Ago''...
It is up to Us now,..the ''Baby Boomers'' to
Educate the ''Pepsi Generation'' or is it the ''Yippees!''..I'm
lost on that one, and
it seems with the passing of time,.so are some
of the ''Morales'' of this Great Nation..
Hard pressed and ''War after War'',..We lose
such Great Young Men and Women in ''Freedoms Name''.
When we lose a Soldier,..it is ''Two Lives
Lost''..The One that They Were Living,.and the One They Would of Lived..very
Sad..
May God Hold Them and their Families Close to
His Heart , as We know that They now Serve in the ''Greatest Army'' the
World
will ever know,..''God's Army'...Walking Point
and Covering His Six!.
Enough said.,..or maybe there is ''Never Enough
said about Courage and Valor'' in Freedom's Name..''For God and Country''
Alright,..on with the ''Sunday
Wake-up!''...WHAT!!!..You haven't gone and ''Grabbed that Cup o Joe''
yet?...You don't need no
''Invite'' for that!..Lets ''Shake a Leg''
now..go grab that ''Cup of Refinement'' and find that O Cushion to sit
on..Were going to
Discuss a ''Hot Topic'' that many a ''Troubled
Soul'' wants to know about,..or
better yet,..You ''Combat Experts'' or Ring Masters
who can Go into the 'Octagon' and do Your 'Street
Judo'...Were discussing this ''HOT Subject''...How to Wrestle GOD and WIN!''
Yup!...Beat GOD up!...It's a FACT!..Its in the
BIBLE!...I'll tell YOU how to do it,.Train You if You Want!...But
actually,..WE All do
a pretty Good job of it Every Day!
.
One Guy,..Yes,..There is One Guy God ''Tapped
out'' to in the Bible,..a 'False Victory' but still a ''Technical
Tap-Out!''...A Rascal
named ''Jacob''....Son of Issac..Brother to
Esau,..whom he cheated out of his Father Issac's Blessing as directed by
God!..Ouch!
Genesis - 32 :25..''And when the Man- ( GOD )
saw He couldn't Win the match, He struck Jacobs hip and knocked the joint
out
of the hip
socket''...
They had been wrestling all night and finally
the ''MAN'' said..''Let Me go for it is Dawn''..Gen. 32:26..
Seems
,..Well,..All of Us think Were ''Tough'',..especially in Our Youth,..and
as We get Older.and maybe Wiser,.maybe not,
We have a hard time breaking ''Old
Habits''...I'm talking about..''Bad Habits''...Ones
that are 'Sinful'...
Favorite ''Childhood'' Habits...''White
Lies'',.. taking candy..snitching a cookie,..a little ''Cheating'' on
the History test,.
All those ''little boo-boos''
that No One Knows About!...Did I forget to say..Score..''Devil''
-1....''GOD'' -0...Round 1!
As We get older the ''Little Sins'' turn into
Big Ones from the ''Dark-Side!''
Every Time We ''Drop the Ball''...Me,..I'm a
''Dribbler''..Can't quite to seem to ''Carry it!''..We ''Beat GOD'' at the
Wrestling
Match and Give Another Round to the ''Bad
Guy!''..
''Oh Pastor Frank how can You say that?...You
can't Compare Life to a Wrestling
Match!...O.K..Try a Car Race,..Your the
Driver..God's
the ''Passenger'',..better yet,..When We Sin,.He's in the ''Back Seat'',..or
When We Really ''Blow the Tire''..
We'll put HIM in the ''Trunk!''...
Our Scripture for Today as seen on the ''Top O'
The Page''.....Job -2: 10...''Shall we indeed accept good from God, and
Shall We
not accept Adversity?''
YES!..GOD,..He Wrestles with Our Love
everyday,..Satan Challenges Us every second of every minute of Every Day,.at
the
cost AND Expectation of Us Losing each ''Round''
to him and Beating GOD through Us!...
BUT!...GOD through His Son Jesus Already set up
the Final Bell,..''Fixed'' the Fight ..Won the Match..put it in ''Our
Favor''
Judges on Our Side....
Only Way We Can Lose is if We ''Throw the
Fight!''...So! come on now, Do Your ''Spiritual Workouts'..Read the
Bible,...O.K.,
At least look at the ''Pictures!'' its a
start!...and Pray!..Prayer is the ''In Between
the Round's Water!''...
''WHO'' said that there's ''No Pictures'' in
the Bible!?....''Gotcha!''...Guess You'll have to read a little bit then!...
Hey!..It's time to ''Refill'' my Cup O' Joe and
hit the road!...
First..Parables,.Got to have ''Parables!''..
''Better to hear the hard truth than a soft
lie.''
''Christ's Victory in the past gives Courage for
the Present and Hope for the Future.''
''Your Life is God's Gift to You,..Make it Your
Gift to God.''
GOD Wrestled Jacob to make him an
Honest and God Fearing man,..GOD
lost the round,..but Won the Match,..Let Him
do the same for You,..Round by round, Life goes
on,.its at the ''End of the Match'' that Determines the Winner!..
Allow Jesus in Your Corner...He'll teach You
some ''Rope a' Dope'' carry You till the 'Final Bell!''
Sherrie and I Hold All of You,..Our ''Warriors
...Our Country'' in Prayer...''ETIAM IN PUGNA''..Still in the Fight''
Blessings...Pastor Frank..the ''Preacher'' and
Sherrie...For..''It is In GOD WE TRUST''....'OOORRRAAAH!'
Tune ~ Have Thine Own Way Lord
