SURVIVORS

Back in the days before mechanism took over, mules were used to pull the coal cars through the mines. 

On Sundays, the one day of the week that the miners did not work, the mules were brought up into the light. 

If they were left in darkness for too long they would go blind, their eyes no longer able to discern the light. 

            Some people are so afflicted. 

They choose eternal darkness and eventually go completely blind. 

Blind to the light of the Holy Spirit.  Blind to the healing hand of the Master Physician. 

They do not believe as did David when he wrote, “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?  The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid.” (Psalm 27:1)

 And so they are terribly, miserably, overwhelmingly blind.

            How does that old hymn go?

Abide with me, fast falls the eventide.

The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.

When other helpers fail and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless, oh abide with me.

            Who wrote these words?  An old preacher in the year 1847.  For years he had ministered to sailors, many of whom sailed forth to be swallowed up in raging storms. 

And now, old, tired and having preached his last sermon, he asked a final favor of his Jesus, “Give me one last blessing.  Give me the ability to write a hymn that will provide comfort to the survivors of these men lost at sea.”

            This is you and I, survivors on the sea of life.  We all have felt losses; been swallowed up sometimes by evil; been unable to endure the storms of temptations; beat down by drugs or depression, or loss of dignity, or mean thoughts.  And so we pray to the God-sent Nazarene who journeyed down from heaven to benevolently save us from ourselves.  To help us gain empathy from our pain.  To help us realize that life is not always something to be enjoyed but a lesson to be learned.  In short, sometimes we must learn to hang by our fingertips till the Lord helps us find a place to put our feet.

               THE SPIRITUAL ABRAHAM LINCOLN



             “A book superior in style and content.”

                        

Quote from book below

To mention Christianity today is to create a firestorm of complaint.  “We must assure separation of church and state” is the politically correct outcry.  Unfortunately, most who are straining their vocal chords, have not strained any intellectual efforts to research how the original quote actually reads. 

When Thomas Jefferson dipped his pen and began to put down his thoughts, he wrote, “a wall of separation between Church and State.” 

Even more interesting is the reason why it was written.  A group of less than joyous Baptists in Connecticut did not want to have their denomination play second fiddle to the Congregationalists.  The Congregationalists?  They would have been perfectly willing to be top dog as the state’s choice.  Episcopalians in Virginia were no less reluctant to create the same problem, if given half a chance.  Thomas Jefferson stuck by his guns in this state, as well.

Separation of church and state?  But should that mean separation of God and man?
