Matt 7:13 (KJV) Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction,
and many there be which go in thereat: {strait: or, narrow} 14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way,
which leadeth unto life, and fewthere be that find it. {Because: or, How}
Hebr 11:13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded
of [them], and embraced [them], and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims ["exiles"-RSV]
on the earth. {in faith: Gr. according to faith} 1Pet 2:11 Dearly beloved, I beseech [you] as strangers
["aliens"-RSV] and pilgrims ["exiles"-RSV], abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
NOTE: An individual's Walk/Talk WITH God is a very PERSONAL thing - intimate! I wondered at the Lord's asking me to start this daily log... There HAVE been times when He has 'Checked' me form sharing with other's some very private, secret thing He's Shown me. You do know that He PROMISED to Share such 'secret' things with us, don't you? [Dt 29:29; Dan 2:19-22,47; Amos 3:7; Mt 6:4-6,18]
I was never sure WHY He did that... I just sorta had the feeling that He had MY best interests in mind [I know how cruel and debilitatingly critical unbelief from other's can be to one who's just getting his 'legs' under him!] So, when He Asked for this - this full exposure - of the 'dew' [as it were] of my morning's meditations with Him - well, I wasn't too sure!
If there was any doubt in my mind as to whether or not He really wanted this, it has collapsed in a barrage of obstacles and battles and temptations to 'slide-by' and by-pass and just put it off! Ha!
Nevertheless, I do want you to remember that this is 'stream-of-consciousness' reporting... these notes are NOT to be confused with an essay or any other piece of polished, edited, re-written work. They are but glimpses... 'peeks' [if you will] into HOW I expose myself to God - and also, to some degree, HOW God Exposes Himself to me! It is by this "Peek-A-Boo" tryst that what I call 'God-Bonding' takes place. Here is how we WAIT-UPON the Lord [and are RENEWED by His JOY!]. And this is what the 'PILGRIM'S PATH..." is all about!
Please bear with me... I'm still working on the entire website [every day].
