By Frank E. Henrich January 10, 2009

Though I try to find a rhythm to my life
   Searching with a full mind thrust
Only the present moment gives peace,
   Can I find peace for my troubled mind?

Tomorrow with its posing uncertainty
   Seems scary, afraid of something out there,
Always I must take uneasy steps forward,
Uncertain of what, lies around the corner.

It is at times like this I say to myself,
The only way is to trust and obey
As I walk with my hand in Jesus’ hand,
Someday I will be in Heaven, toil over.

WHAT IS THE CROSS I BEAR?

By Frank E. Henrich Dec. 1, 1978

God clothes His light in earthen vessels (you and me). It is these earthen vessels that men and women of worldly interests attack, not God's light. How is this?
Worldly people attack the person saying he is not intelligent, stupid and simple to believe in what he cannot see. They need an excuse for not becoming like you. For they know that for them to become like you they will have to eliminate the passion of their habitual sin.

As a result they are choosing evil because of fear of loss of pride and acceptance - - fear that others might say they are stupid, etc - - one fears, another fears, etc. - - is how the system functions. So they attack verbally the one thing they can attack. The earthen vessel (you and I) that holds the Light of Jesus Christ - - the key to heaven, - - a new nature filled with love and peace - - only given to us by declaring Jesus our Savior is our-light. It is better they attack us than God.
It is part of the cross we bear. We carry the Light of Jesus Christ forward into darkness (evil) daily depending on faith and trust in Jesus Christ. The crosses we bear are the performing of little acts day by day, moment by moment that glorify You my God regardless of what can mankind thinks. So wonder no more why some hate you but let your light shine. So wonder no more why some hate you and let your light shine. Read Matthew 16:24-27 and Galatians 2:20.

HERE WE HAVE A PICTURE OF JESUS ASKING DOUBTING THOMAS TO PLACE HIS FINGER IN HIS SIDE AND BELIEVE.

MEDIEVAL PICTURE OF JESUS AND DOUBTING THOMAS

TRUST AND OBEY

THOMAS REPONDED "MY LORD AND MY GOD" - WHAT DO YOU SAY?

HOLY SCRIPTURE - - - John 20:24-29 24 Seeing and believing now Thomas , called the twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 The other disciples therefore said to him, "We have seen the Lord." So he said to them, "Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe." 26 And after eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace to you!" 27 Then He said to Thomas , "Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing." 28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, "My Lord and my God!" 29 Jesus said to him, "Thomas , because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." NKJV

RUN AWAY FROM SEXUAL SIN - - - 1 Cor 6:18-20 18 Run away from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. 19 Or don't you know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, 20 for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body. NLT

DELIVERANCE PRAYER

(substitute your name and sin where noted)

Lord God, I (your name) have sinned
Against you and need your forgiveness;
I have a sin addiction of (name the sin)
And have tried not to sin but yet sin.

I cannot overcome temptations to sin
Without your help, so please hear me
Have mercy on my soul and help me
And I will avoid circumstances leading to sin.

Please heal me outright so I don't sin,
If not outright send me the help I need
To live a life pleasing to you my God
I ask this Father God, in the name of Jesus.

OBEY GOD ABD TRUST AND OBEY WITH CHRISTIAN TRUST FOR THEY ARE THE THINGS OF GOD.
