Just as David wrote in the Psalms from his heart, so do I. Sometimes there is harshness in my tone, but understand that a man that walks with God will have different perspectives, dependent upon the trials and victories experienced while sojourning in this foreign land.Loren Marvinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06449830338366814132noreply@blogger.comBlogger9125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200668944470807267.post-26223229616231947302010-05-01T12:04:00.000-07:002011-02-04T14:11:57.055-08:00

In worship this morning, I became very in tune to the Spirit of God.  It seems that sometimes our spirit must find the proper fervency to be receptive.  This can only be found when the cares and worries of earth have been pushed aside temporarily.  For me this happens with some basic supplicating verses that serve as the “tuning fork of my soul”  It allows my words and intentions of the heart to

Whenever we engage ourselves as humans in the mindsets that are required to function successfully in the man-made world we are always at risk of any of these inferior thoughts stealthily usurping the commitments and priorities of the universal interests of humanity. We will either love the force fed values of our constructed reality that are pumped into us in every social possibility, or we will

There is a great difference between what the scribes and Pharisees of any day have to offer, and what the Spirit of God gives to the Called.  In Jesus day he rebuked the “spiritual leaders” of Israel, by contrasting their own perspective of John’s ministry and the real differences.  The irony is that both Jesus and the Pharisees drew the distinction; the one from blindness and the other from

In this world every issue or idea is full of both darkness and light. There are both positive and negative dynamics in the make up of everything in our earthly experience. We have the option to focus on one or the other. The beauty of this truth is that Darkness and Light have a cyclic dance that they are constantly progressing through. One or the other will always be apparent to the human

The eye of Compassion will always see the outstretched arms of the needy and suffering, and be invoked to action.

This present realm that we occupy is made up wholly of a fractionalized and incomplete display of reality. At no time does a person consciously or unconsciously perceive every possible combination of dynamics that are interacting even within one foot of them, let alone on a global scale. Although this reality is not hard to comprehend, the human consciousness is not comfortable at all with

A strong hold is a place of refuge for something or someone. In a historical sense it is a military construct. It is the safest place for one’s army. Also it is the place of last resort that is safe and yet able to also be utilized as a position for attacking. This symbolizes the ultimate in defense and offense at the same time.     With this last statement in mind, let’s transition this

The point of salvation is that a man comes to God ONLY in Spirit and in Truth. Jesus gave many parables about the variance in efficacy based on the depth of the display of faith. I have constantly told people that had been 'saved' for decades that to actually have your heart tell God the truth about anything is the most fearful and powerful thing that could happen in a man's existence. To

I am beginning this public journey, in an effort to offer words of Wisdom to everyone that will hear. I am sure there will be things said that are controversial at times, but nothing can be more controversial than this existence. We as humans, live in contradiction to our own interests most of the time. It is this dichotomous experience, spiritual and carnal, that is usually the focus of
