The Executor of Justice

The King is returning! How will he find me? I hope he doesn't find me asleep.

I woke up this morning with a song in my heart, "How He Loves". I don't know all of the lyrics to the song. So, I looked it up on YouTube. I began my meditation while listening to the song. Suddenly, I started to envision what it would be like sitting up in Heaven looking down to earth. I'm not stating that I want to take his place. I was just trying to capture earth from his point of view. The closest I can get to that is when I'm on a plane to any destination. You know, when you look out the window and see landmass and oceans from a great distance. At a certain point, when the airplane takes off, we have a view of the highways and streets. Cars and trucks coming and going, looking like tiny ants as the plane rises higher and higher.

I asked the Lord, "is that how you see us? As small insects, if you are not careful, you would step on us?". But I didn't need to hear his response, cause immediately his Spirit began to reveal his wisdom in me. Then without hesitation, I remembered that the One who was, who is and who is to come lives inside of me. He has established his dwelling place inside of this broken vessel, in which like a delicate carpenter is restoring it to His perfection.

So when I sing, "How He Loves", in my tiny, finite mind I can partly understand the depth of His love for me, a sinner, not worthy of His kindness for me.

As I began to read Psalm 99, I came across verse 4, "you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob." Well, Jesus executed justice and righteousness in MauB, by dying on the cross for me, for my filthy sins. I'm making it personal cause I need to be reminded of this. If you received the gift of His mercy and grace, then you make that verse yours. Put your name in replacement of "Jacob". Cause that is what Jesus did for you too!

If this God doesn't impress you, I don't know what would! "Oh, He loves!! Yeah, He loves. OH, He loves us. We are his portion and he is our price...if His grace is an ocean, we are sinking." How these words resonate in my heart so vividly now.

Thank you, Holy Spirit for revealing this wisdom to me. Make me seek wisdom more than riches or the desires of my heart as your word in Proverbs 8 says.

Great I AM

Devotional moment:

Lord, you bring me joy. Indeed you are my delight. The hands of the Lord await for my surrender. I delight in what you give me. Everlasting joy! You are my strength. The sun shines upon me because of you! The rain falls and waters the ground, the earth from where I eat. It has pleased you to give me the kingdom and now I can call you, "Father!" I pray to the Spirit for revelation so that I can see sin the way you do. When I struggle in it, that's my battle. But, it is your victory. You conquered sin and triumphed over death. I'm no longer enslaved to either because of you. The Risen One. The Great I AM.

New Shorter Than Short Films

Get ready for a new set of shorter than short films with Nena and I.

This time, we hope to show simple learning lessons from the Bible using a simple Chihuahua and a simple dude, like me!

One, for example, deals with repaying evil for evil. I plan to make them 30 secs long and sellable on Sermonspice. I also plan to make at least one Nena short film every other year. With next year being the deadline for the second Nena, I plan to start quick.

Be sure post any remarks or any ideas you have for us to add to our creative script. Man, I hope these video bless you tremendously!
