I am in a tall building...and soon I will fly
I would not stop thinking about you
And so I wana post what I have just read...
John 9:14
I know My own sheep,
and they know Me,
as the Father knows Me,
and I know the Father.
I lay down My life for the sheep.
But I have other sheep
not of this fold;
I must bring them also.
And they will listen to My voice.
Then there will be one flock, one shepherd

We are one in Christ. Each one of us is our brothers' keeper and since after the Deluge during Noah's period we all descend from the same roots, we are all brothers albeit with our free will, we choose to be sheep or goat.
ReplyDeleteless we forget, Acts 13:47 states: For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, "'I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.'" [ASV]
So, it IS our failing if our brothers do not receive the salvation knowledge of Christ.
Let's really be the light and the salt - not the blight and the 'pillar of salt'!
To God be the glory, and power, and honor!
Jesus told a parable of a lost sheep:
ReplyDeleteA shepherd owned a hundred sheep,
One of the sheep lost on the mountain side,
Caring and loving for the lost sheep,
Out went the shepherd in search for it,
Leaving behind ninety-nine others,
Upon finding it stuck in the bush,
The shepherd was overjoyed bringing it home,
Calling his friends for a grand party,
Expressing his joy upon successfully getting the one and only lost sheep.
So are the Lord and His archangle in heaven,
Upon the salvation of a lost soul.
Listen, Jesus is knocking at the door of your heart,
Waiting for you to open and welcome Him.
Today is the day of salvation,
For you and family,
If you receive Him as your Lord and Saviour.
Do not wait for tomorrow,
For tomorrow has its own problems and questions.
His invitation is just for you,
The Apple of His Eyes.
Thank you so much Gideon and Jallin. Your words trully widen my perspective. Gideon, your testimony was captivating in "I am not who you think I am" . I tried to comment but the explorer kept shutting down..so I am commenting here.
ReplyDeleteThe conversation at the end would by more magnetic if you could include a sort of stream of conciousness..as you did in the early part of the story.
Well , I am looking forward to the next episode..
