Psa 14.1
“The fool hath said in his heart,
There is no God…”
“Most of God’s people are content to be saved from the hell that is without.
They are not so anxious to be saved from the hell that is within.”
– Robert Murray McCheyne
Be careful to not easily “assign” pride, or jealously, or even anger, to a Christian Brother. It might be.
It might not be – only God knows. Have you prayed for him? Seriously, have you asked God to show him his heart? Do so. August 202.
“Even in the wildest storms the sky is not all dark; and so in the darkest dealings of God
with His children, there are always some bright tokens for good.”
– Robert Murray McCheyne
Dear Unmarried Lady. There are several of you included in Bryan Family Altar from night to night – I’m asking God for a husband for you (in His will). What if Mr. Right never comes? Please Friend, be “married to Jesus.” Become a laborer in prayer. Enter your Secret Closet often. While there, be more in earnest. The world needs your prayers. Your church needs your prayers. If Mr. Right comes you’ll make him a better mate because of prayer – if he doesn’t – you’ll do God great service as you labor in pray. – 8/11/22
frequent reader
Be a frequent reader of God’s Word
Let It be your Milk, your Meat, your Bread
Let It never be laid aside, unheeded or unread
Until others say, “He’s dead.”

But you’ll be more alive than they said;
Now not reading, but eternally *with* the Word.

WHY ARE MEN NOT AS MANLY: 1.) Foods have unhealthy additives? 2.) Water systems are being tampered? 3.) Fathers are not manly? 4.) Mothers are more masculine – therefore less feminine – (As one goes up, the other goes down)? 5.) TV has pushed images of less than manly “men” (And less than feminine “women”)? 6.) Same true for disney (which boys start watching sooner)? 7. Other? Other? Ask God, Christian Dad, ask God Saintly Mom to help YOU raise your son to be a MAN! October 2022
Eph 6.1
“Children, obey your parents in the Lord:
for this is right.”
“We shall have all eternity in which to celebrate our victories
but we have only one swift hour before the sunset in which to win them.”
– Robert Moffatt
DISCIPLE 1. To become a Christian is to become a Disciple. Disciplined Christians are different; so different they take the Founder’s words literally “…LOVE your enemies…”(Mat 5.44). “Wait, wait, that’s impossible.” Without Jesus Christ? Yes. With Him? No. Our Lord went on to say “Rejoice…leap for JOY”(Luk 6.23) when men “hate you” “separate you” “reproach you” & “cast out your name as evil”(v22). “That’s not natural, Bryan.” I fully agree. But then, Jesus didn’t die that we act “naturally.” – 10/12/22
