PJP2 PROLOG - 16102829 - PROLOG Focus: Matthew 5:14-16........LIGHT HOUSE - Psalm 43:3-4 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Send Out Your LIGHT And Your TRUTH; Let Them Lead me; Let Them Bring me To Your Holy Hill And To Your Dwelling! THEN I will Go To The Altar Of God, To God my Exceeding JOY, And I Will Praise You with the lyre, O God, my God.".... PJP2 PROLOG POST - 16102829 - LIGHT HOUSE - Matthew 5:14-16 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."And Jesus Said, 'You Are The LIGHT of the world. A city set on a hill Cannot Be hidden. Nor Do people LIGHT a lamp and put it under a basket, BUT On A Stand, AND It Gives LIGHT To All in the house. IN The Same Way, LET your LIGHT Shine Before others, SO That they May See your Good Works AND Give GLORY To your Father Who Is In Heaven.'".... Here we are just 10-days away from the U.S. Presidential Election of 2016. I am fascinated that The Holy Spirit has Shared this Imagery of a LIGHT HOUSE via this PJP2 Entry (16102829). I had at first Asked Him, "Why now? How's Your LIGHT HOUSE connected?" Silly me..... As I stated months ago, I promises then and do again, that I will remain out of the 'side-taking' postings in regards to my own person candidate selection, at least as best I can. I believe I've tried to remain true to that promise. I have to admit, though, the mud-slinging and literal 'darkness' that has surrounded this campaign cycle, from all the candidates, has been overwhelming. Those of you who know me well, know that I am a news-hound. I am constantly scanning and reading (much to General J's chagrin) news stories of the day (usually aloud to her, which really does drive her bonkers). However, her of late, with all the hubbub and 'spin' that all the pundits seemed to have applied to every tidbit of news swirling around, well, to be frank, it seems even more challenging than usual to catch a glimpse of TRUTH, let alone reality. What a Blessing and Encouragement to Be Reminded That Not Only is God's LIGHT HOUSE Still Blazing Bright and Clear through all the storms raging all around us....BUT (Behold the Underlying TRUTH).....His LIGHT of LIFE Shines Through us as well, piercing through the darkness to Lead and Guide us to His TRUTH. Indeed, we can say with Honesty and Integrity...."In God we TRUST."..... Thus my Prayer for us today would be a Paraphrase of Prayer and Praise based on His Holy Spirit's Inspired WORD to Solomon as he records in Proverbs 3:1-8 (ESV/emphasis & paraphrase added/jaj)....O Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, we Praise Your Holy Name. Lord Jesus, Thank You that Through Your Sacrifice and Resurrection, we Have Been Adopted as God's Own children. Holy Spirit, Ever Remind us that we may Never forget Your Teaching. Father God, May we Ever Obey and Keep Your Commandments in our Hearts. Lord Jesus, Lead us In You Way, Helping us to Know You Are With us For whatever the length of our days and the years of Life we may have. Holy Spirit, With You Within us, You Bring Peace to us all. Father God, May Your Steadfast LOVE And Faithfulness never forsake us. Lord Jesus, In Your Grace, Bind Your WORD Around our necks. Holy Spirit, Write Your WORD On The Tablet Of our Hearts. Father God, Let Your LIGHT Shine Through us that we May Find Your Favor and Grace. Lord Jesus, May Any and All Good Success we Experience, Remind us that You Are With us, Forever, In The Sight of God The Father, Reflecting Well Your Light to All men. Holy Spirit, Help us to TRUST in You With All our Hearts. Father God, Train us NOT to lean on our own understanding. Lord Jesus, in All our Ways May we Acknowledge You. Holy Spirit, we Surrender Fully to You and Ask You Make Straight our paths. Father God, May we Never Be wise in our own eyes, For True Wisdom Comes From You Alone. Lord Jesus, Teach us to Faithfully Esteem, be in Awe and Respect You, Lord. Holy Spirit, Guide us to Turn Away from all evil. Father God, You Bring Healing to our flesh And Refreshment to our bones By Your Grace, Mercy, LIGHT and LOVE. Lord Jesus, we Lift Up our Prayers in Your Holy Name....Amen and Amen....jaj John 8:12 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Again Jesus Spoke to them, saying, 'I Am The LIGHT Of the world. Whoever Follows Me Will NOT Walk in darkness, BUT Will Have The LIGHT Of LIFE.'”....
