Genesis 3. 8 – 9

“And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.

“And the LORD God called unto Adam and said unto him, ‘Where art thou?’ ”

Why are we HERE?

Mankind is NOT on earth to 1) Reform any church, 2) Remove any king, 3) Restore any government,

4) Reverse any revolution, 5) Restrict any politician, nor 6) Rescue any institution. Period.

(Friend, please guard your soul against doing “good” even “better” and never doing BEST.)

We’re here to be Redeemed, to Rejoice, and Relate to others the greatness of our Righteous Redeemer.

TWO SHORES

When quite young I was delighted to be

Three years by the salt, the salty old sea.

I’ve seen it calm, as “calm as a tea cup;”

And I’ve seen it white caped, frothing way up.

It had its own creatures living on shore,

Some walked on eight legs, some had only four,

Their colors and shapes, their flight, song, or cry

Where clear signs that the salt sea was nearby.

2.

Now, I’m nearing a vastly different sea,

Beyond whose shore, by His grace, I will be

Forever with Maker of both huge mains,

United with “earth’s” body – the “remains.”

This shore also has Creatures which delight

Winged Ones, some with six (only two for flight).

Yet unseen, what’s beyond pure Heaven’s shore

Thrills all saints – with the Lord, forevermore.
