Clear Vision musings

Wow, I didn’t realize I am so behind in posting here. Sorry.

Life is what it is. God is not only good, He is awesome. We had a great worship time today, and great sermon on the glory of God.

==========================

I’ve added some Sermon feeds to the bottom of the page.

Enjoy!

Coram Deo, In the Presence of God,

Lisa @ Me and My House

I discuss with others much about the socialism of our civil government that ought not be so, and where charity, care for the poor should come from - the church, both individual bodies and congregational bodies, to care for the poor both within and outside of the Body. “Spreading the wealth” through forced collectivism never works. Only voluntary giving will truly solve our problems. That requires Christian character, or just plain ol’ fashioned morals and ethics, the foundation that is necessary to get our nation back where it needs to be. (Did we really the the Me generation would lead to anything else than it has in our nation?)

Jim Eliff shares how his church is doing what should be done for the members of their own body.

As the economy worsens, most churches need to think through the pain of its members. Do you have a responsibility for those in the church? What will you do? The answers to this problem are varied.

I received this update today on the Gospel of John Project I wrote about a couple weeks ago. I am so happy the goal has been reached for the Gospel of John for Philadelphia outreach. The goal was 10,000+ copies, and well over 11,000 have been sponsored so far. They are currently at the printer. Please pray that these Scriptures will reach the hands and the hearts of those God is preparing to receive them. That they would read God’s Word, He would bring understanding, and they would respond with faith and repentance. “His Word will not return void.”

UPDATE: 12,000 booklets for this campaign are currently being PRINTED! At this stage, all graphics have been handed over to the Trinitarian Bible Society for review and printing. After that, it will be off to the mailers!

As always, to keep up-to-date with our latest progress, please visit:

Your financial support has made it possible for us to reach this stage. We are very appreciative of your help.

But please remember to continue to pray for genuine fruit from this effort. Our responsibility is certainly to sow the seed but we must realize that ’salvation is of the Lord.’  We humbly ask that you pray that these booklets will reach the right homes to do the most good in helping broken lives and directing families to visit good, local churches.

How does God want us to deal with the past in counseling? Should we get all hung up on it? Was Freud right? Or have Christians just adopted pagan practices in much of their “counseling”? Read this article for a simple explanation of good common, biblical sense in counseling relating to your “past”.

“NC deal with the past only when it is actually present.”

When the wicked bear rule, the people mourn. ~ Proverbs 29:2

We mourn as our nation continues to slide further from the God fearing foundations we had, as socialism marches on, and we lose our liberties to the licentious.

But the wicked do not control. Today’s Proverb gives us true perspective.

The king’ heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. ~ Proverbs 21:1

Our country is reaping what it has sown. God has given it over to its wickedness. But He remains the Sovereign One, in control of all, Who will do what He does for His own glory. We can trust in His faithfulness to His own.

God help us, bring discernment, when people think this is the One and Only True Almighty Righteous God who is doing these things.
