GO YE AND LEARN

Today take your Bible and let's read.  



Matthew Chapter 9


Verse 10 it says

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.


Now let's think about this.  Jesus got a place to sit and was eating.  People gathered around to eat; disciples, publicans and sinners alike.  Jesus didn't DID NOT get up and move.  

HE STAYED...  He stayed seated with them, ALL of them.     

    

Along came the Pharisees, and wanted to try to cause a stir.  They didn't think it was proper.  They thought this was unheard of.  They began to question the disciples about their Master.   

Verse 11 says:  

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

Verse 12-13 says:  

12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.


WOW..Did you read that?  

THEY THAT BE WHOLE...NEED NOT A PHYSICIAN, 

BUT THEY THAT ARE SICK..


Jesus told the Pharisees, that people who are not sin sick, 

DO NOT need "THE GREAT PHYSICIAN"    

He then told them to GO YE and LEARN what that MEANS...

He told them that HE WOULD HAVE MERCY and NO SACRIFICE...

He said I AM NOT COME TO CALL THE RIGHTEOUS, BUT SINNERS TO REPENTENCE.


COME NOW PEOPLE..do you see that example he has put forth.  

We are to be among people, 

but not be of the 

sin going on in the world.  

You have to be around all walks of people to 

TELL THEM ABOUT GOD...

BUT you do not have to partake of the 

sins of the world  to witness.

Now let's bring it home...

Hmm, think about this..

You go to the doctor when you aren't sick? Right? 

Some of you might say..Well I go to get a checkup. 

Well okay.. 

When the GREAT PHYSICIAN heals you 

and takes away your sins..

You want to KEEP in fellowship with HIM and HIS PEOPLE...

SO THERE IS YOUR CHECK UP !!!!!!

GO YE AND LEARN !!



MAY GOD RICHLY BLESS YOU !!

I GOT THIS ??

  As we are now entering a new month,  we pray that you Lord will carry us through each day whatever comes our way.  You will lift us up when we walk through deep waters; you will guard  our steps each day if we are walk near high cliffs.  You will be with us in and out of danger.   You, and ONLY you, are our lifeguard, and our protector; our Savior, our Heavenly Father.    I pray that we desire ONLY to follow where you lead us to go.  Luke 9:23  And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and  take up his cross daily and follow me.  Everyday many of us make calendars..and YES it is a new month...SEPTEMBER is here !!! We make calendars to keep track of events, appointments, and other happenings or events going on in our lives.   We are so busy rushing around in our lives and trying to micromanage.  We have it down to the very detail.   Some may have a daily schedul...

LET GO AND LET GOD

Have you ever set back and thought... Well, maybe it is time for me to let GOD  take control of this in my life.   First of all, You need to realize that GOD really already has control -- but he wants you to surrender to him that control.   There probably are some of you out there who have thought about it, but how many of you have done it... You need to REALLY let him have control.. Let go of the worry and stress  that is dragging you down.. LET GO AND LET GOD..... The Bible says  Psalms 55:22  Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee:  he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. WHY WOULD ANYONE KEEP CARRYING BURDENS WHEN GOD WILL CARRY THEM FOR US???? They are not ours, but HIS.. We have to realize that we cannot truly handle things on our own...we have to say  DEAR LORD.. Not mine, but yours.   It may be hard, but we have to g...

Of Hens and Humans

  I saw a lot of human characteristics and actions while I sat there on the stoop at my Mama's Ruby's house.  You can learn a lot watching the happenings in a barnyard.   I know I did watching the many adventures of my grandparent's roosters and chickens.   This brought to me, after all of these years, in a featherly way what is common and wrong in the lives of people.   We are a lot like those birds. I have a beautiful group of chickens and roosters. They are all different varieties and colors.   Each one has its own style and personality.   I named one of those beautiful hens, Ellie Mae.  She was a victim of the other chickens’ unfair treatment.  She was a beautiful hen.  I would sit and watch her walk around the grass.  I was sitting on the porch cracking some pecans one day.  We were going to make some pies.   I noticed that sweet Ellie Mae had some feathers missing.   L ater that day, I saw what had ha...
