*The Highway of Holiness*
It Exists. It has an Entrance. It requires Endurance.
It is Enjoyable. It reaches on Eternally.
And (sadly) It has Exits. c. 1970’s
SNATCHES OF POETRY
Thank you Lord for snatches of poetry
And a bit of song,
And prose sprinkled between
It helps my life along.

Alms? – not in heaven.
Prayers? – not in heaven.
Fasting? – not in heaven. (Here is our place to do these.)

“…John Calvin who justifies Christians getting angry, is historically known for his disposition and exhibition of anger.”
– Warren McIntire, /Righteous Indignation/
We, Christian churches, have been robbed at “pen-point.” Too often shallow “music” scribblers have written UNrhymed ditties and equally shallow “worship leaders” have foisted such tripe onto UNwilling congregations.

1Jo 4:18
“…Perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.”
Allow me to suggest you make a list of Who taught you What. One taught this, other showed how to do that, a third revealed the trick of so-n-so. My list has a last name beginning with “A” (Amstrup-taught me how to calk in 1985) & “Z” (Zehr-taught me how to “fan” a stack of paper so each sheet shows a tiny edge c. 1959) with several between. It’s a way to be thankful, to be reminded to pray for them, & a review of personal history – yours J.
