WORDS TO THE WISEWritten by Irvin L. Rozier
WORDS TO THE WISEWhat should I write, O LORD GOD most high I believe your second coming is drawing nigh I am waiting with pen of a ready writer To write words to make someone's day brighter It is useless to write unless inspired by you The words you give are wise and true I read in Bible these words by your son He said it is finished, thy will be done The words that come from you will stand In Daniel came forth fingers of a man's hand The king saw part of hand that wrote The words scared him so, his knees did smote Belshazzar's kingdom was coming to an end This was written message that you did send His pride and greed caused his quick downfall Your handwriting was clear on palace wall

Its OK. To Love. There are many occasions in our life that we love someone dearly. Sometimes it first person that we see and sometimes we must hunt most of our lives to find that special someone. There are also ocassions that we never find that person that we are looking for, but we still have love to give. Love is not physical, love is a place in our spirit that needs to be filled. Sex is not love but only expression of it. Love is sharing good times and bad. Love is an opportunity to deliver ones soul to another for safekeeping. Love is a fulfillment of Ideas and thoughts. Love is union of two minds, two hearts and two souls. Love is sacrificing ones self for another. Pain, Suffering, anguish and many sleepless nights are also common in love. Tears and sorrow in loss of a love. Many have asked, ”With all this, Is Loving someone really worth it?” The answer is yes. Without love Jesus would have never died for strangers and sinners, God would have never gave His Son for a sacrifice. Lets read a little scripture. Love is fulfillment of Law of God and any thing out side of Gods law is an abomination and not love. 2Co 12:15 And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; {Paul is speaking, not financially but of his life. Sometimes we give all for one we love.} though more abundantly I love you, less I be loved. {This is very true. Sometimes we love so much that what we receive in return is less than what we give.} 2Co 6:6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned, { Love takes many forms. There are too many people that relate love with pleasures of body. These people are missing out of what love is all about.} 2Co 2:4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; { The sacrifice of heart, as Paul states, is one of purest forms of love.} not that ye should be grieved, {Not allowing other to suffer but to command all suffering to ones self.} but that ye might know love which I have more abundantly unto you. { The sacrifice of ones self is always recgonised by other. Some of greatest love is when we scrafice all without letting anyone know it.} In John 14:15, Jesus commanded Love but does demand it, there is a difference. “If ye love me, keep my commandments.” Are we commanding or demanding love? Have we gotten so self-centered in our own lives that we forget what love is? How many, here today, are willing to give their own lives over to other? Are willing to give up your own life, needs, desires, wants and goals for someone else? Lets take, Mark 12:33as an example. [Speaking of God]“And to love him with all heart, and with all understanding, and with all soul, and with all strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” And to love with ALL, Heart, Understanding, Soul and strength. Is this not what we
