Fax From.......God?
Yeah, Right.
As any of you who know me.....know.....anywhere I go so goes two things.....my cell phone....and my Bible!
I am known among the family, our nautical friends, my prayers girls’ etc. as the one that can always be reached on ’her’ cell phone.
My husband, Charlie, has his but often his can be found in the bilge of our boat, under working material of his latest project or simply.....not to be found. We often use my phone...to call his phone in order to find it!
My personal Fax Machine to God, my Bible, is, also, vital to me on a daily basis. Especially as we travel on land and sea enjoying...The Good Life.
For you see, the Bible is not a collection of fables or human ideas about God. It is God’s very words given .....through people....to people.
One Scripture tells this in 2 Timothy 3:16&17 which says in The Living Bible version....almost Southern style.....
....”The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do what is right. It is God’s way of making us well prepared at every point, fully equipped to do good to everyone.”
The Bible is the instruction handbook.....provided by the manufacturer, our Creator, for the express purpose of showing us the good, bad and ugly of human life. We have this priceless Book in order that we may choose, wisely, how to live this ‘Good Life’ on planet earth.....
As a result of the ‘right choice’ according to John 3:16.....we ultimately leave our ‘temporary state‘ and go to the “Real” life....for our “Happily Ever After”!.....
.....How did this Fax machine work before there were....Fax machines?
Laser beams of energy from the Creator to the created ones....Spirit to spirit as it is called......2 Peter 1:20*21 says....”For no prophecy recorded in Scripture was ever thought up by the prophet himself.
It was the Holy Spirit within these Godly men who gave them...
....TRUE MESSAGES FROM GOD.”
......This process is known simply as......inspiration.
The writers wrote from their own personal, historical, and cultural context of real life. But even though they used their own minds, talents, language and style, they wrote WHAT God wanted them to write.
Scripture is completely trustworthy because God was in control of its writings and its words are authoritive for our faith and lives....daily!
Have you ever experienced moments of......sheer inspiration?
Every person has a creative side of life.....This is expressed in many different ways.
Music expressing the heart of the singer or composer.....or ...listener. Art transmitting emotions felt and expressed in a tangible way in color, form and personal style by one so inspired. A writer taking thought forms and making them ’ speak’ to a reader..... by presenting a picture with words.....
Our Creator.....makes us.....the created ones.......Creative.
It is an ongoing process.....
My Bible is that Fax between He and I......prayer is the form of personal communication which entitles me to requisition the resources I need daily in order to live the Good Life that my Creator planned from the beginning of time....
Yep.....My Bible and cell phone goes hand in hand....
There is a little poem from long ago which says.....
...I sought to hear the voice of God and climbed the highest steeple
...But God said....”Go down again. I live among the people!”
Thank God....He is a.....People person!!!
