Wat.. who’s the fairest of them all? Okay, to me there is One in the whole universe. His name is Jesus. Yup.

Who? What? Where? Things.. personalities? Beautiful? 

It might last “a little while” with some individuals, the grass withers and the flower fades.. but it’s not that way with God’s personality. He’s always the most beautiful person. Doesn’t change. So SO pure, so thoughtful, so good, so unselfish and kind in His character. And He sees where you go, what you say, and think with the motives. Why? Well, He loves you so much He just can’t take his eyes off of you. Ponder this.  

Never lose an opportunity of seein' what really needs to be seen.. not all needs to be.. or of hearin' what needs to be heard.

Makes ya think. Anything?..some things sure! You know how many persons have been made beautiful outwardly ..a good God made em that way..  but today via personal choices are far from that inwardly. And beautiful people for money etc today still lure others away into evil, but not all. So SO arrogant, selfish and ugly inside, but they don’t really have to stay that way even if they can’t regain all that they’ve lost. Mr. Lu-Cifer was very beaufiful, he still lures people away into sin. I mean that fallen angel a.k.a. Satan with his creepy crowd and he can’t repent ever -- no hope for him, he is firmly set in his rebellious sin and he still wants and seeks to take as many people down as possible with him. Down forever, no return. Misery loves company I guess. But there’s a bit of time for you it appears -- you can still turn and trust Christ. Choices matter, and some more than others. One is far more.

"It was also written that this Message would be proclaimed in the authority of His Name to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem: 'There is forgiveness of sins for all who repent.'" Luke 24:47

Praise to the Lord. He cares for us and cares about those we care for. Cares more than we do -- it's world changing!

God gave us His great Son and gave us each other so that we would be able to help each other which is great  ..so that we together could greatly know and become more like His great Son. Facebook.com/shareJesus .. kurtwvs.tumblr.com

What goes well together?

What's right with each other and with you?

"In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father, who is in heaven." ~ Matthew 5:16

A personal choice, good deeds done in the Lord.. I mean in obedient loving relationship with the Word of God.. the shining out, and glorifying God. It's so simple a child could grasp this. What goes together well? Look closely in the passage neighborhood if ya will. They are related in this context! I love it -- the peace and joy from Him too! So practical and faithful is Jesus Christ. Go seek and follow Christ today -- go tell. Brag on Him near, far and wide -- go serve on purpose. Won't regret it. Who?..you won't! Dare ya if I may.. I challenge you to be diff. Live on purpose, a meanful specific, not merely like another wandering generality. You too can know in your knower! Facebook.com/shareJesus

O THE  J O Y  FROM THE ONE WHO THOUGHT IT ALL UP! O THE LOVE AND PEACE – THE GREAT GREAT PEACE THAT WE HAVE.. THAT PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING.. THAT ALL RECEIVE AND ENJOY WHO LOVE GOD’S WORD.  SURE, WHEN JESUS IS SAVIOR AND LORD IN YOUR HEART GUESS WHAT..  HE HELPS YA SHINE OUT! HE HELPS YOU KEEP FROM TIPPIN’ ON OVER LIKE A TOP.. FROM STUBBIN’ YOUR TOE EVEN.. AND FROM ACTING LAME. YOU KNOW, WHO WANTS TO BE STUMBLIN’ OR FALLING ALL OVER TO YOUR OWN HURT SMALL OR BIG? ANYWHERE? HERE’S WHAT’S SO AND WE NEED TO KNOW... 

"THE WORD OF GOD IS ALIVE AND ACTIVE, SHARPER THAN ANY DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD. IT CUTS ALL THE WAY THROUGH, TO WHERE SOUL AND SPIRIT MEET, TO WHERE JOINTS AND MARROW COME TOGETHER. IT JUDGES THE DESIRES AND THOUGHTS OF THE HEART." ~ ANON AUTHOR, HEBREWS 4:12 

Twenty eighteen and it's still okay to dream -- it's okay to beam.

It's okay to put aside daydreamin' and live in the real world as well! Can you believe it's another New Year starting? You're so blessed and time just flies when you're havin' the right kind of fun in the Lord. Other types of fun, who needs it? 

This 2018 year is upon us now and I'm excited about what God will do. 2017 was then, and this is now--we have a hunger to know and follow You.. better. Real well, God.  

Spring up O well and make others well. What's my part, God? Never wanna be out of sync with Heaven.. with Your purpose! We can evangelize or fossilize! 

What's the plan.. Your's Lord?.. please help us plan right. Most of God's people are just meandering around on the way to heaven, but we want to plan well and work that plan well. We want your biblical strategy..even with working our way through all the Scriptures.. all the counsels of God. How could we not grow well? 

We want to see You work in Your church, we want to go tell someone. Lord, make us better acquainted with your rivers of living water. 

I ask for biblical inspiration, faithful appropriation, and wise application. Wanna be a part of all that so that my friends and family will experience You, Lord. Wanna share the Gospel with passion and make disciples, not impede or block your grace. Pour out Your Spirit here. Flow through. Bless and use my buds to bless. We're forgiven and blessed to be a blessing as other are forgiven. 

Jesus said we are either for or against Him, we are gathering or scattering. 

More grace is needed this year. Bless my on and offline-missionary friends and others too.. yup, through me. Through us, Lord!

More people can turn and trust Jesus Christ this year..even now! Perhaps you want God to use you this 2018 in biblically winning and disciplining hungry people? I just encouraged my friend Bill to get involved. 

Friends, you won't missionally cross a street to a neighbor's house, or prayerfully cross a mountain range to one, or #TravelOnPurpose crossin' an ocean unless you look away from the past, from where you've been..and forget about the things of the worldly shore. Today is a day to remember a bit (especially the verses memorized), to look up and to look and go forward with Christ! I like traveling when God directs, but ya don't need a plane ticket to minister in the 10/40 window in 2018. Facebook.com/shareJesus

During days of hard facts and gobs of pessimistic thinking the prophet Isaiah once wrote, “Do not remember the former things.. I am about to do a new thing.” Those words are for now as well. As this New Year begins would you intercede with words something like these...

Lord, in 2018 give to me and to my believing friends, I pray:

A remembering heart for the things that have happened and that I need to gain insight from.

An attentive heart to what I've learned and am learning.

A forgiving heart for the people and how they might have let me down or hurt.

A grateful heart for what has blessed.

A brave heart with wisdom for what may be required.

An open heart to all that may come.

A trusting heart to go forth with You.

A loving heart for You first and for people -- for all your creation.

A longing heart for the reconciliation of other sinners like me, and all things. (See Romans 8:28-29 when you get a free moment).

A willing heart to say “Yes Lord” to what You will have me think, be, say and do. In #Jesus' Name. Amen.

Let's stop debating, splitting hairs and arguing about the Bible and start focusing on the living Word of God, on His essentials and on lovingly sharing Christ's Gospel instead!
