...HE LEADS ME IN THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS


IN AN ENDLESS TRADITION OF GOD'S WORD AND THE MIRACULOUS!!!



Do you care to notice that lovely meadow? Care to crave for its loveliness as it waits on the other side, full of promise? Watch, I adjure you. Watch. See how the rivers flow of milk and honey? Try to relish how the sun dares not to set in the New Canaan.
Care to join the crossover team?
What was that?
You ask of how?
Look. We have a leader.
Behold. There is the path that leads to bliss.
You hesitate?
Oh! I see.
Your life has been filled with devils, and your soul, mingled with filthiness that you found yourself unworthy to even enjoy a glimpse of the new heaven and the new earth, let alone go with us.
Be still. Beloved.
Let us reason together.
I felt that way too. I know the heavy burden my soul carried. I felt the milestone tied around my neck. Look briefly at the scars the mighty tides of life have inflicted on me.
It was all my doing.
In sin I was conceived. In sin I was born.
But before you drink again from the dregs of bile, and wallow in the mire of squalor, let me, if you please, give light to your darkness.
See the master? I mean the one who leads us in this journey?
Yes. He is the one who glows in light too bright for the eyes to hold.
He told me that He leads all of us who bear no inkling of rightness.
He came to seek and save that which is lost.

He said those that need a physician are not those who are whole but those who are sick.
So I beseech thee. Sample those of us who are on this path.
Look how vile and despicable we are. See the rottenness of our teeth, and the incorrigibility of our essence
.
Now do you see how you fit in?
Do you dare to care?
Will you care to dare?
The acceptance of our insufficiencies is the perfection of His efficiencies.
For it became of him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of our salvation perfect through sufferings.
So if our leader, the God of light and love, would care to cross over in order to lead us to His kingdom, won’t you think it suffice enough to show gratitude by yielding to follow?
Don’t common sense prick you to lay off the sin that easily beset you and come with us?
Come.
You have tried to be right before but you failed.
Follow.
You have struggled to stand before but you fell.
Obey.
You have traveled many paths before but you found nothing.
Look at the bridge.
You can’t see it?
Wait.
Let me lift you up as my strength can bear.
Be unburdened and awake your confidence.
The road may be hard, steep, rough and long but do not fear
He leads in the path of righteousness!
