Once I had a Love: Poem

I once knew a love – as fresh as a morning’s breeze

Such love – seemed not to wither – but float on billowing clouds of Spring

Sweet waves and passions – deep Summer – where cheeses and wines deceive

Alas – along comes winter – so profoundly – Love freezes most deep

Brave days, yes days most frigid – bereft of Summer’s – enthralling – sweet glee

Where once – to know Love’s sweet passions – most fresh – ever brisk – doth flee

Then along comes winds post-winter – Love freshens – frost recedes – ne’er to be

Spring advances again unbidden – to stir – hoe depths – bend knee

Oh eyes, sweet eyes of Summer – yearning – uninvited –  doth bleat

As sure as the snows of winter – returns to yonder great seas

So again I knew love and passion – as fresh as a morning’s sweet breeze

Such love – seemed not to wither – but float on billowing clouds of Spring

Sweet waves and passions – deep Summer – where cheeses and wines deceive

Alas – along comes winter… Will love e’er return for me?

MV No Condemnation Rom’s 8:1-4

Faith, Memory Verse

MV

The idea is for you to memorize the following memory verse and then (If you like) to learn a little more about the section as you see fit. I actually love this section of scripture for it brings me much strength. Enjoy!

Level 3 Memory Verse

1. There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
2. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
3. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God accomplished by sending His own Son in the form of sinful flesh, reconciling sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, 
4. That the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the (Holy) Spirit. (Romans 8:1-4 NKJV)

Here is a invaluable section of Bible verses to memorize.

Todays Devotional will be (MY) breaking down ‘verse 1’ of this most crucial section of text.  Simply put: it is how the following verses impacted and continues to impact my life.

In the previous chapter, Romans 7:14-25, the text teaches us that everyone (including the great Saul who became Paul) is subject to sin and its nature within the human and the human-condition.  We further recognize that evil is present in us even when we desire to do good.  Of course, we know this was by design.

IN chapter 7 Paul conveys how glad he is to have Jesus, the Son of God, pay his our sin debt; of this I am agreed.

Paul notes, that with our minds and souls we serve God by desire and will and intent…

However, with our flesh we often continue to mess-up and serve the law of sin, because of our flesh.

MV If We Confess 1 John 1:8-10

Memory Verse levels 1-2

Here’s an oldie but a goodie.  Of course, you can say that about every Bible verse.

So here are three memory verses for your consumption. We went with the NKJV because it is more readily understandable for the average English speaking/reading Believer.

1st John 1:8-10 (NKJV)

Level -1 = just one or two verses below.

Level -2 = all three verses.

· 8) If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

· 9) If we confess our sins, He (Jesus) is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

· 10) If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Word is not in us.

1st John 1:8-10 presents three short verses which are so critical to our relationships in Christ (Jesus).

MV – Beginning of Sorrows Matt. 24:8

Memory Verse

Level 1 Memory Verse:

All these are the beginning of sorrows.  (Matthew 24: 8 KJV) —

That’s it, short and not quite so sweet.

I guess the real question is… do you know what verse-eight means by, “ALL THESE” ?Considering how the World is NOW in the midst of the Beginning of Sorrows don’t you think it might be prudent to know what “All THESE” elements might be.

Here’s Matthew 24:3-8 for your reading convenience:

• 3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age (world as we know it)?”4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. (Matthew 24:3-8 KJV) 

You should also know that there are many more prophecies which have come to pass in the past 73 years.

And yes, there are quite a few more that are due to take place over the next 7-8 years.  We can already see them marching forward.

If you’re looking for a comprehensive look at “This Age of the Lord” then get a copy of our book, “This Side of the Whirlwind, the Coming Apocalypse” (TSWW) and learn about those thing the Prophet Daniel was told to conceal (Daniel 12:4-9).

As far as I know, TSWW is the only End-Times teaching/book (other than the Bible of course) which has not been proven wrong in even one tenet, and this over more than 5 years of challenges presented to this author.  Not one concept has been found in error and more importantly, numerous prophecies within TSWW have already begun to come to pass.

So!  Want to know what’s coming? Then read our book along with your Bible.

We can chat about it and we are always happy to entertain challenges.

Know what’s coming!
