WEDNESDAY- HUMP DAY! Just where are you this week as you the top of the hump for the slide down to the week-end? How about life,,, have you a ready and workable plan to slide and not pick up any splinters on this wooden slide? Other than putting something smooth and splinter proof under you,, you are bound to pick up a few splinters as you slide... but if you take the Lord Jesus and sit in His lap,, you guessed it,, no splinters at all..and wow!!! ,,, what a more beautiful slide,, if just to the week-end ,or how about through life? Well ,, how about it ,, life? A few bumps, maybe, but no real splinters??? I will take the "lap ride" any day,, join me,, will you?

WHEN GOD WHISPERS YOUR NAME!
The shepherd knows His sheep. He calls them by name. When we see a crowd, we see exactly that.. a crowd. We see people, not "persons", but people. A herd of humans,, a flock of faces,, that is what we see,, as we walk down a busy street. But not so , with the Shepherd, for to Him every face is different. Every face is a story. Every face is a child of His, and every child , has a name! The Shepherd knows His sheep , and He knows each one by name. The Good Shepherd knows you, He knows your name,, and He will never ,, ever, forget that name,, He loves you,, and He calls out to you ,,, by name,,, do you hear Him calling,, if not,, listen more closely, and if you have not answered the call,, to come to Him and accept Him ,, as your Shepherd,, then do so...for the cliffs are high and empty all the way to the bottom,,, but with Him, the meadows are full,,flat, green grass, with water, and full of love and care,, and as you "graze " through this meadow of life,,, He will guard you on all sides and like a lullaby ,,
HE WILL WHISPER YOU NAME, CALM WILL YOU BE, NOW, JUST LISTEN TO THAT SWEET VOICE OF ....
JESUS CHRIST !
Lord thank You for that voice that You gave us to hear and to follow through this life and eternity. amen
John HIcks
I listen, and I am glad of the sound I hear as my Savior gives me direction.. who is directing you? I pray it is He , Jesus !
