Kimmy's Ponderings

Recovering this weekend on the couch in a vat of Black and White Offerings from Turner Classic Movie Channel....Hours upon Hours actually.....of declared must see 'essential' classics. This was my first time watching the station. I love the art of film. It was exciting especially because they had no commercials and added an info preface about the movie; some even with banter between two movie buffs. It began with Hitchcock; Notorious, The Man who spoke Too Much, North by Northwest. Then the infamous Philadelphia Story, David Copperfield(My personal fav pic of them all which was new for me, now I want to read the Dickens Classic),Holiday and two more that I can't recall the titles of. Last night I tuned in again to catch a two hour Bio on Cecil B. Demille. It was fascinasting and fantastic. Initially I thought that I was in for some wholesome experience from yester-years gone by. Some were of that genre,I really enjoyed them. Yet to my amazement for the most part how man...

Yes Virginia it is truly harder to die to self, let Jesus be Lord of all, pray for a TRUE revival and wait on Him than to play church. Let us turn again our hearts from man and their sometimes bizarre personalities and tattoo's to Christ. "Repent therefore of this your wickedness and pray God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you." Acts 8:22 NKJV

I read two verses of this old Hymn tonight I never saw before, from references by T Austin-Sparks and H. A.Ironside...They are BELOW in italics.... So very Powerful. Couldn't find anywhere through Google..will research again. ENJOY...km I hear the Savior say, “Thy strength indeed is small; Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all.” Refrain: Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. For nothing good have I Whereby Thy grace to claim; I’ll wash my garments white In the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb. I hear the accuser roar of ills that I have done I know them all and thousands more Jehovah findeth none Thought the rentless foe accuses Sins recounting like a flood Every charge our God refuses Christ has answered with His blood And now complete in Him, My robe, His righteousness, Close sheltered ’neath His side, I am divinely blest. Lord, now indeed I find Thy pow’r, and Thine alone, Can change the leper’s spots A...

" Worship is a Life thing, not a Weekly thing." "Worship is this, that Life is for the Lord. Every moment, Every hour, Every day, Every week and Every Year-It is all for the Lord. That is worship. Our first thought in the morning is the Lord , and our last thought at night is the Lord; and although there are many occupations of the mind and hand during the hours of the day, there is something behind the one who has been redeemed unto God that is always reaching out to Him. The lives of such are the prayer of worship. They are not always putting it into language and phrases, and they are not always on their knees, and they are not always in meetings,; but from behind them, so to speak there is that which is reaching out to the Lord-they long for the Lord. It is true of them, as it is true of those in the days of Jerusalem's glory, though they were far from Jerusalem they long for Jerusalem. "Oh to be there, the place of the altar, the place of God, the pla...

There is a Time to keep silence, and a Time to speak (Ecc. 3:7) We all have been misunderstood one time or another in varying degrees. There are times when we are called upon to explain ourselves. There are times when we are called to be silent and allow our Great Defender who is our eternal defense, to be that Great advocate on our behalf. There is no battle that is not won and overcome if we would just run to that throne of Grace and Mercy restraining ourselves from reacting and acting in our own strength. My Faithful Helper will help me today. Difficult? Yes...But an identification with the God who understands, our God who was and still is rejected and despised of men. There is always life that comes forth from such a painful wound as He Himself our Comforter is that faithful friend that sticks closer than a brother. We welcome and desire the judgments of God who is good and sees all, our Great Potter upon us His clay. But the judgements of man and brothers can sometimes rip your h...
