IN NEED OF HOPE AND HEALING

 

IN NEED OF HOPE AND HEALING

Lord KNOWS-God knows-our world=

Is in NEED of HOPE & HEALING

BOTH on a collective and

On an individual basis=from

Case to case

The WORLD IS=and we are individually

ALL HURTING in some way

So much so that POPE FRANCIS-

Has called the CHURCH-a-

“FIELD HOSPITAL after battle”

“........

The LIGHT came into the world-

But people PREFERRED darkness

To LIGHT........”                                                                                                         John 3:19

WE are all FIGHTING our

Own individual BATTLES and

MOST of us are losing

This world is=INDIVIDUALLY=

We are=

In need of HOPE & HEALING

Yet this world-for some reason

Doesn't want to TURN

TO GOD

But wants to TURN to darkness

Instead of light

NO WONDER-so many of us

Are LOSING our battles

“ALL those gathered here

Will know

That it is NOT by sword

Or spear

The LORD SAVES;

For the BATTLE

Is the Lord's

And he will GIVE all of you

Into his hands”                                                                                                             1 Samuel 17:47

“Who is 

The KING of glory?

The Lord strong and mighty

The Lord mighty in BATTLE”                                                                                            Psalm 24:8

“THEY are demonic spirits

That perform signs

And they go out to the kings

Of the whole world

To gather them for the BATTLE

On the great day

Of GOD ALMIGHTY”                                                                                                  Revelation 16:14

TURN to God-if

You are in NEED of HOPE

And of HEALING

And who isn't?-in this world

That LIVES upside down

POPE FRANCIS got it right

WHEN he called the Church

“A FIELD HOSPITAL after battle”

We need to get out

Of the bars and the strip clubs

And get BACK INTO CHURCH

MAYBE then-we will FIND

The hope and the HEALING

That we are LOOKING FOR

“WHY my soul

Are you downcast?

Why so disturbed

WITHIN me?

Put your HOPE in God

For I will yet PRAISE him-

My SAVIOR-And my God”                                                                                       Psalm 42:5

“For the people's HEART-

Has become CALLOUSED-

They hardly hear with their ears

And they have CLOSED

Their eyes

Otherwise they might

SEE with their eyes

HEAR with their ears

Understand with their HEARTS-

And TURN-and I would HEAL THEM”                                                                      Acts 28:27

(the HOLY SPIRIT through the prophet Isaiah)

MY dear friends=IF=

You are in NEED of hope 

And of healing

TURN BACK to the Lord

Get back into church

And you will FIND IT in God

Dear LORD-FILL UP our hearts

With the HOPE and the HEALING-

Of the WORD OF GOD

We RENEW our PROMISE to TRY

As we CONTINUE to SEARCH for the LIGHT

In Jesus' name
