PREPARING OURSELVES=MAKING OURSELVES READY

PREPARING OURSELVES=
MAKING OURSELVES READY


We all want to hear=
To UNDERSTAND the word
Of God=
At least I know-
That I DO


“HEAR the parable
Of the sower” Matthew 13:18


But sometimes we have to WAIT-
We have to prepare ourselves=
We have to make ourselves
READY to receive
The WORD OF GOD


The seeds are the
WORDS of God=and these
DIVINE SEEDS are filled
With the POTENTIAL
To produce high yields
In all of us


IF we are ready
To receive the
Words of LIFE


The soil is our SOULS


PREPARING ourselves-
To make ourselves READY
To hear the word of God


Prepare your hearts
Prepare your soil=
So the word of God
Can GROW inside of you


And grow to
REACH their full potential
So you can make a DIFFERENCE
In this world


“You PREPARE a table
Before me
In the presence
Of my enemies


You anoint my head
With oil
My cup OVERFLOWS” Psalm 23:5


And that is
What the word of GOD=does
When we are PREPARED
To receive it


It makes us READY
To handle any situation
It comforts us-
It allows GOD'S LOVE and KINDNESS
To grow
Inside of us


“My Father's house
Has many rooms


If that
Were not so
Would I have told you
That I am going there


To PREPARE
A place for you?” John 14:2


BEFORE we hear
The word of God


We must prepare
OUR hearts and our minds
To accept
The teachings of God


We must prepare ourselves
We must MAKE ourselves READY
To listen to=to accept


And to MEDITATE
On the word of God


So we are ready
To move FORWARD=in life
No matter
What life throws at us


ONLY when the ground
Is willing=
Only when the seeds
GROW STRONG in our hearts


Can we DEVELOP
The beautiful virtues
Of our heart-and
In our lives


“........you also
Like living stones
Are being built
Into a SPIRITUAL HOSE


To be a holy priesthood
Offering SPIRITUAL sacrifices
To God=through Jesus Christ” 1 Peter 2:5


HEAR the parable of
The SOWER my friends


And make YOURSELVES READY=
PREPARING yourselves to HEAR
THE WORD OF GOD


And LET IT GROW
Inside of you


IN the name of Jesus=and our ALWAYS TEACHING almighty FATHER
