The Sign. The Symbol. No Yawing

The Lord was devoted to you and chose you...because He loved you and kept the oath He swore to your fathers, He brought you out with a strong hand from the place of slavery, Know that Yahweh your God is God, The faithful God who keeps His gracious covenant of loyalty for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commands.

Deuteronomy 7:7-9

For everyone will be salted with salt and fire. Salt is good but if the salt should lose its flavor, how can you make it salty? Have salt among yourselves and be at peace with one another.

Mark 9:49-50

The following words from President Abraham Lincoln are fitting for the days we call our own. You and I will not answer for this generation, but for how we conducted ourselves in relation to The Eternal One before this, our generation. How we responded to His call and His commission. Lincoln is a great role model and example of how a president, or any person devoted to The Eternal One should conduct himself. Yawing is a nautical term meaning to drift and err from the course. For the short distance this is not significant but in any long distance the outcome would be disasterous. Our life for Christ is meant for the up close and personal, stay close to Him, that's the way He planned it. Just you and Him. Just myself and Him. This is how He governs, leads, loves and protects His beloved... that by the way is you:) This is where you stand up and say, "Not without me You don't, I have No One but You!" Don't lose your reward and the Only True Friend you have. This has to start with Him and I , you and Him. Don't look at those around you, keep your eyes on The Savior and follow ONLY His lead. He is The Good Shepherd. That is also the way He planned it.

Isaiah 8:18, Luke 16:31

"Our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so concieved can long endure. That this nation under God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."
