Blueprint For Life




Blueprint For Life

Let me see this world, dear Lord,

As though I were looking through Your eyes.

A world of men who don’t want You Lord,

But a world for which You died.

Hymn: "Looking Through His Eyes"

            As this writer has stated so many times, so many articles, raised in poverty on an eastern North Carolina tobacco farm, dirt road, no power, telephone or water lines, small country school, thirteen in my high school graduating class, BLESSED TO WORK THROUGH EIGHT YEARS OF UNIVERSITY TRAINING, army medical officer.  

            The first visual imagine in my mind, I must have been around two years of age, country church built by great grandparents, my mother on her knees washing "saint's feet"....as was Christ, the everlasting symbol of humility, servitude.

            The very idea of evolution, atheism, had never penetrated my mind. WHAM. Suddenly, the state university to which my hardworking, God fearing ancestors did and do continue to pay taxes, supporting philosophy and philosophers who hate God.

            The most famous atheist, Richard Dawkins, born 11 years after I was born, first book, The Selfish Gene, said recently, "The relevant period of evolution is so long ago." He denies the source book of all knowledge, The Bible, God's word. Reading God's word is like sitting at the very feet of God, creator of the universe. Dr. Dawkins' philosophy is called "science fiction." Does he really think that a wind blowing over the earth in some way, could actually come up with an instrument depending on nanotechnology? The atheist has never been able to "guess" how the first molecule was formed. Yet, public schools teach the myth of evolution to your children...enabled by you and your taxes.

            The statistical probability of evolution is about like the statistical probability of an air plane "evolving" from a giant junkyard.

            In my lifetime (82 years), these sighted and then blind eyes have seen a metamorphosis of the entire world. We can ask, as did Paul of the Galatians church, "O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth..." (Galatians 3:1). Not just the news media, politically correct, obsessive compulsives in supporting all the forces of darkness (Eph 6:12), like the cheap-school house gang, supporting one another in deceit. Not just in the Middle East and indeed most of the world where political geography, greed of the leaders of the new world order, enslaved onlookers see lying, cheating, stealing. Only the followers of Dawkins and his ilk, could not believe in the sovereign creator of the universe, and that "the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth..." (2 Chronicles 16:9).

            This writer has traveled every continent of the world. Even among unbelievers, I have never found a man's mind who did not believe that God is in charge of everything. He gives us the strength we need for each day, "as thy days, [so shall] thy strength [be]" (Deuteronomy 33:25).

            God is the light of the world, "and in Him is no darkness at all" (1 John 1:5). Like a great magnifying lens, he gathers the light, brings it down to a powerful pencil of light, RIGHT TO YOUR NEED....especially, right to your prayer closet where you have the privilege of a two way conversation. JEHOVAH-JIREH, the Lord who provides for you. JEHOVAH-NISSI, the Lord of love and protection. JEHOVAH-SHALOM, the Lord of peace. JEHOVAH-TSID-KENU, the Lord of righteousness. It is not difficult to know in yourself or see in others, Lord of righteousness, the holy spirit of a living God. It is seen in our living and our giving. JEHOVAH-SHAMMAH, the omnipresent Lord, greatest consolation the heart can know, God's promises made in light, with us in the dark. JEHOVAH-SABAOTH, the Lord of hosts, our protector. It is never necessary to wonder how we escape the accidents, diseases of this world. JEHOVAH-RAAH, the shepherd who leads us, God knows his own and those who know Him. JEHOVAH RAPHA, the Lord of healing. "I am the God who healeth thee" (Exodus 15:26). The children of Israel, Old Testament, knew the healing power of God, just had to look upon a brass serpent (Numbers 21:9). Every time this military medical officer feels the brass coduce on his uniform, he knows the assurance of healing. More important, New Testament, Christ atonement on the cross, forgiving and healing (Isaiah 53). Peter, looking back, said, "By his stripes, ye were healed" (1 Peter 2:24).

            Puppets of science like Dawkins, universities around the world, filled with people of self deceit... intelligencia-cultured, could never let their academic friends think that they are low browed enough to believe in the God-Jesus, worshipped by the poor, often unlearned people. So many, rich and poor, think that God needs them. For God to be God he does not need anything. In his majesty-kindness, chosen a few to live with him forever. Dawkins in his ilk, the "broad" street full, obviously, people anxious for Hell. Not only foolish enough to not desire Heaven-the essentials of care of Jehovah God in life on earth, but settling for the deceit of earth, and then Hell. Such are the blueprints of life.

            The acid test in our blueprint of life, IF we serve God simply because He "scratches our back." We love God and serve Him, in spite of the cost. Think of the price He paid. The key to gratitude, you make comparisons. In this writer's long night of blindness, filled with nothing but gratitude-gratefulness, not only my salvation but Jehovah god always omnipresent in my life. My citizenship is in Heaven, just passing through here (Phil 3:20).
