- WHO DEFINES US? by RFH We are not defined by those that may love or hate us, But only by the One that loved, fashioned, and made us. Please read Psalm 8:1-9 which says in part, "When I con- sider Thy heavens, the work of Thy fing- ers, the moon and the stars which Thou hast ordained; what is man, that Thou art mindful of him?" (c) RFH 01/29/2017 [Nonprofit use permitted] TO BE LIKE THEE by RFH Father and Savior: By Your Holy Spirit I strive to be like Thee; Not to give up on anyone, but to let anyone give up on me. It is written in Isaiah 53:3, "... we hid as it were our faces from Him ... and we esteemed Him not." It came to pass as later written in John 19:15, "But they cried out, '... crucify Him.' " (c) RFH 02/18/2017 [Nonprofit use permitted DESIRE DETERMINES by RFH It is according to one's desire that determines each one's case; We're either in Satan's line of fire or in the scope of our Lord's grace. It is written: In Proverbs, "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he ..." In Joshua, "... choose you this day whom ye will serve ..." And in 1 Peter 5:8, "... the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seek- ing whom he may devour." (c) RFH 05/05/2017 [Nonprofit use permitted] |
RFH's first "country-western" poem: JUST PASSIN' THRU by RFH Well, howdy! How do you do? Don't mind me, I'm just passin' thru. A long way t'go but a short time to; Don't mind me, I'm just passin' thru. Whether you help me or I help you, it don't matter none -- I'm just passin' thru. Listen, if you will, to my Savior's Song; After I'm finished I'll just move along. A long way t'go but a short time to; Don't mind me, I'm just passin' thru. (My Savior's Song would also be known as The Traveler's Psalm -- or A Song Of Degrees -- found in the eight verses of Psalm 121. Also, please read The Strangers And Pilgrims verse from Heb- rews 11:13, and end with John 14:3.) (c) RFH 01/22/2017 [Nonprofit use permitted] THE TEN BARRIERS by RFH By thought, word, or deed we've broken down the Ten Barriers and let the enemy in; O Lord, we pray, search our hearts today; disperse the enemy and purge us from such sin; So that we shall be perfectly free and so much more; more like Thee. [In Prophets and Kings (Page 212), EGW wrote in part: "Those who give themselves up to ... Satan may boast of great benefit received; but does this prove their course to be wise or safe? What if life should be prolonged [or] temporal gain be secured? ... All such gain will prove at last an irrecoverable loss. We cannot with impunity break down a single barrier which God has erected to guard His people from Satan's power."] (c) RFH 04/07/2017 [Nonprofit use permitted] |
- - WHERE, JUST WHERE? by RFH Where, O Lord, just where are my loved ones now? Life is getting tough; Someday we may all be together; it can't be soon enough. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 says in part, "For the Lord Himself shall descend ... and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up with them ... to meet the Lord in the air: And so shall we ever be with the Lord ... comfort one another with these words." (c) RFH 02/12/2017 [Nonprofit use permitted] WISE LITTLE EYES by RFH Those wise little eyes could peer in to see so much of this world of sin; But let them instead in innocence grow; There's ample time for them to know About the dark side of life (which the godly despise); So do all you can to help guide those wise little eyes. Proverbs 22:6 tells us: "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old he will not depart from it." (c) RFH 03/07/2017 [Nonprofit use permitted] STILL CLOSE by RFH Tho' we live far apart, going thru some stuff; In matters of the heart, we're still close enough. Colossians 3:13 says: "Forbear- ing one another, if [anyone has] a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye." (c) RFH 5/11/17 [Nonprofit use permitted] |
