BOB WITH WINGS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bob started out as just a friend---

Over time, we came closer to this man---

This man is an angel and an uncle to us---

Because he’s like a father to us,

“Happy Bobert’s Day” came to my head,

 

He is a kind and generous man

With dedication beyond his control---

He has a heart of gold, glowing like

Angel’s wings---

 

An angel who taught me how to soar---

He is Bob, with a heart of gold

This is Bob with wings

 

Dedicated to:        Bob Wallman

REPLACING WORRY WITH FAITH

 

 

How do you

Handle your worry

How do you handle

Your anxiety

 

We all

Have a multitude

Of worry

In our life

 

Worry abut health

Worry about money

Worry about broken relationships

 

We all have

A multitude of worries

A multitude of anxieties

That we

Can do nothing about

 

Luckily for us

In the Sermon on the Mount

In the 6^th chapter

Of Saint Matthew’s Gospel

Jesus tells us

How to handle worry

God has everything

Under control

 

“Seek first

The Kingdom of God

And his righteousness

And all those things                                                 ( the necessities of life )

Will be given to you as well”

 

Worry worry everywhere

Everywhere that I turn

Everywhere that I look

Something or someone else

Is coming at me

Like never before

 

“Do not worry

About tomorrow

For tomorrow

Will worry about itself

Each day

Has trouble enough

Of its own”

 

So please

Don’t worry

Whatever your troubles

May be

 

God has everything

Under control

 

Seek first

The Kingdom of God

God---and his righteousness

Has it all under control

 

So give your worries to God

And your anxiety too

And your worry

Will be replaced faith

 

Replaced by

The peace of God

Which transcends all understanding

 

Do not worry about tomorrow

For today

Has trouble enough

Of its own

 

Give all your worries and anxieties

To God

God will give you peace

 

God has it ALL

Under control

A WORLD=THAT NEEDS SO MUCH

 

 

 

 

 

A WORLD=THAT NEEDS SO MUCH

 

We live IN a =CAPITALISTIC SOCIETY=and we GET CHALLENGED FINANCIALLY=

And in So MANY other ways=IN OUR LIFE=and this makes it DIFFICULT=for us=

To ACCEPT=How to account for OUR RESOURCES=So many challenges=So many

Choices=”……..How MANY full baskets=Of fragments=did you pick up?”     Mark 8:19

 

I sometimes WONDER=How I have made it  THROUGH all of my problems=My health

Problems=Financially=and without A SIGNIFICANT OTHER=To share  my life with=I am a

PERSON=with issues=as we all are=But I have RECEIVED so much From the Holy Father

God=and his Son=and from family members=From friends=and a FEW RARE INSTANCES=

From strangers=I am getting by=I am MAKING IT=with the LORD’S HELP=and I HOPE

That you are too!=For we LIVE in a  world=That needs so very MUCH!

 

SOMETIMES=it is HARD to know=when we HAVE ENOUGH=But I do=I have everything that=

I NEED!=The world screams=”MORE-MORE-MORE”=but Jesus says to=For us=”TO EMPTY
OURSELVES”=Of everything that You have=and HIS FATHER GOD=Will give us=

MORE in abundance=Especially  love=THE ESSENCE of God’s love=and of Jesus’ LOVE!

 

SO GIVE=what you have=TO THE WORLD and remember=You reap what YOU SOW=We Live=

In a WORLD=THAT NEEDS SO MUCH!=But IF=we cooperate with God’s love=WE HAVE ENOUGH=

“As I have observed=Those who plow evil=and those who SOW TROUBLE=REAP IT”        Job 4:8

“Remember this=Whoever SOWS sparingly=Will also REAP sparingly=and whoever SOWS

GENEROUSLY=Will also REAP GENEROUSLY”                                                                            2 Corinthians 9:6

“Do not be deceived=God cannot be mocked=A man REAPS WHAT HE SOWS”     Galatians 6:7

 

God wants us to know=THIS WORLD=NEEDS SO MUCH!=It is in=DESPERATE NEED  of love=

Of forgiveness=of material BLESINGS=and of course KINDNESS=SO GIVE=what you CAN!=Even

IF it is=ONLY LOVE AND KINDNESS=God can MULTIPLY=With his LOVE=Just look at

THE MIRACLE of=THE  LOAVES and the fishes=In the gospel of Mark

 

The disciples  are COMPLAINING=Because they have no bread=But Jesus knew=GOD WOULD

PROVIDE!=”Jesus said’=’WHY are you talking=About having no bread?=Do you still not see=

Or understand?=Are your hearts hardened?=

 

‘Do you have eyes=But fail to see?=and ears but

Fail to hear?=And don’t you remember=When I broke FIVE LOAVES=for the five thousand=How

Many basketful of PIECES=did you pick up?’

‘Twelve’=They answered

‘And when I broke the seven loaves=for the four thousand=How many basketful of PIECES=

Did you pick up?’

“They answered’=’ Seven’

He said to them=’DO YOU still not understand?’”                                                                          Mark 8:17-21

 

My friends=We live IN a HURTING WORLD=That NEEDS SO MUCH!=But if we LOVE=If

We GIVE what we CAN=THE LOVE of=The Holy FATHER God and His SON=Jesus Christ=

WILL make the difference

MY LIFE=is a LIVING TESTIMONY TO THAT!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER LIVING=FOREVER LOVING=Forever

MULTIPLYING Holy Father God!

WHERE DID OUR HOPE GO?

 

 

 

 

 

WITNESS

WHERE DID OUR HOPE GO

 

 

 

 

I road

The public bus today

 

Saw all the blank stares

Saw the long and desolate faces

Saw the look of hopelessness

In so so many of us

 

I ask myself

I ask you

 

WHERE DID OUR HOPE GO

 

Perhaps you are

Putting your hope

In all the wrong things

 

Hope is NOT visible

It is the looking

As to what is to come

It is KNOWING that

There is something better

 

“For in this hope we were saved

But hope that is seen

Is no hope at all

Who hopes for

What he already has

But if we hope

For what we do not yet have

We WAIT for it patiently”                                                         Romans 8:24

 

Perhaps you have a chronic illness

No known cause---no known cure

God forbid

Maybe even a terminal illness

 

Perhaps you are looking

For a scientific miracle

I wish for one for you too

 

Just remember

All miracles begin and end with

THE POWER of God

 

WHERE DID OUR HOPE GO

 

“Put your hope in God

For I will yet praise him

My Savior and my God”                                                     Psalm 42:5

 

Perhaps you have

Serious financial difficulties

Can’t feed your family

Or even yourself

 

PUT YOUR HOPE IN GOD

 

“Command those who are rich

In this present world

Not to be arrogant

Not to put their hope in wealth

Which is so uncertain

Bu to put their hope in God”                                                   1 Timothy 6:17

 

Where did our hope go

Perhaps we are putting it in

All the wrong places

 

PUT YOUR HOPE IN GOD

 

People have failed you

Broken relationships abound

A broken family

An estranged parent or child

 

PUT YOUR HOPE IN GOD

 

“Not only so

But we also rejoice in our sufferings

Because we know that suffering produces perseverance

Perseverance---character

And character---hope

 

And hope DOES NOT DISAPPOINT US

Because God has pored out his love

Into our hearts

By the Holy Spirit

Whom he has given us”                                                             Romans 5:3-5

 

WHERE DID OR HOPE GO

 

Nowhere---maybe it has been

Just a little bit replaced

 

PUT YOUR HOPE IN GOD

RIPPLE EFFECTS=FROM THE LORD

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RIPPLE EFFECTS=FROM THE LORD

( BECAUSE our Lord WORKS=for us=WITH OUR FAITH)

 

ARE you a Woman or=Man of FAITH?=Do you try and SPREAD the WORD OF GOD?=

If you do=I have some GOOD NEWS for you=for you and YOUR GOOD WORDS=Your

Good works=They do NOT=stop with you!=There is a RIPPLE EFFECT=Because of

YOUR FAITH=That the Lord and THE FATHER GOD=Use to spread=HIS LOVE and=

WORDS AROUND=”……..What God has PREPARED=for those who LOVE HIM=This God=

Has REVEALED  to us=Through the SPIRIT”                                                                             1 Corinthians 2:9-10

 

Do you know=WHAT A RIPPLE EFFECT is?=It is=When you THROW A STONE=Into a lake=

Or a river=THE RIPPLE flows outward=FARTHER than we=COULD ever throw the

STONE itself=That is what HAPPENS=When you SPREAD GOD’S LOVE=God’s WORDS and

Works too=Ripple EFFECTS from the Lord=Because of YOUR FAITH=OUR FAITH!

“But the Word of God=Continued TO SPREAD and flourish”                                            Acts  12:24

“In this way=The WORD of the Lord=SPREAD WIDELY=and grew in power”                Acts 19:20

“We sent Timothy=Who is our BROTHER=and co-worker  in God’s service=IN SPREADING

The gospel of Christ=To strengthen and encourage You=In your faith=So that no one=would

Be unsettled=By these trials”                                                                                           1 Thessalonians 3:2-3

 

JUST IMAGINE=that the Word of God=You send out=and SPREAD about=from your

Lips=Works like that stone=and its RIPPLE EFFECT=Jesus=and HIS FATHER=can take their

WORDS =that you use IN FAITH=and spread it the SAME WAY=It can NOT ONLY touch

Your corner of the world=But it can EFFECT THE WHOLE WORLD=Because of

THE RIPPLE EFFECT of your FAITH in the LORD=For we are  21^st century Christian Apostles=

And Catholic apostles=of the LORD JESUS Christ=and His Father=It happens=Whether

You see it happening or not!=Because  of The Ripple Effect=Of the HOLY SPIRIT of

Our God

 

Dear Lord=WE PRAY=Get us out of the way=For the GOSPEL of our Lord SPREADS=The words

OF GOD=are WONDERS and  miracles!=”Listen to this Job=Stop and consider God’s

WONDERS”                                                                                                                                               Job 37:14

“Show me=THE WONDERS of your great love=You who save by your right hand=Those who

Take refuge in you=From their foes’                                                                                         Psalm 17:7

“I WILL SHOW WONDERS=In the heavens above=and signs on the earth below=Blood

And fire=and billows of smoke”                                                                                                       Acts 2:19

WHEN we Pray to the Lord=He INSTILLS the Spirit of God=IN US==and he GUIDES and

Directs us=In which way to go=He lays WISDOM and the Spirit of God on us=Through our

FAITH=and the LORD GOD OF LOVE and=HIS FATHER=Instill the RIPPLE EFFECT=In

Our words and actions

 

And so MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS=EVEN IF=You are NOT seeing any results=from

Your WORDS AND WORKS=The Word of God=is still PROGRESSING=We must have the

FAITH the Good Lord and his Father gave us=For he is PRODUCING A RIPPLE EFFECT=Not

Only in our corner of the globe=BUT IN THE WORLD

 

“Consequently=You are no longer=Foreigners and strangers=But FELLOW CITIZENS with=

God’s people=and also members of his household=Built on the foundation=Of the apostles=

And the prophets=With Christ Jesus himself=as the chief CORNERSTONE”            Ephesians  2:19-20

THE SPIRIT=of the Holy Father of God and Jesus the Lord   PRODUCES a RIPPLE EFFECT!=

Count on it!=IN JESUS’ NAME
