Perfect LORD deserves our perfect obedience. When that happens, there will be perfect harmony and peace in his kingdom. This should be obvious to anyone who is open to God.

***God's Perfect Way***
Communion experience. The Lord has come up with the perfect way for us to attain union with him. It is ingenious! Praise him!
**Our Ultimate Goal
We pray for many things to the Lord; but ultimately, we want to become totally obedient to him. In today's Gospel reading from Matthew 16, Jesus gave us the right counsel: "Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it."
*****The LORD Is Real!
From today's reading 1 from Jeremiah 20, we heard read "I say to myself, I will not mention him [the LORD], I will speak in his name no more. But then it becomes like fire burning in my heart, imprisoned in my bones; I grow weary holding it in, I cannot endure it." Let me tell you that the LORD is real and you can develop a most intimate relationship with him until he becomes your conscience. Now you lead an absolutely exhilarating, rewarding existence!
***Blunt Reality***
Sept. 2. We are all being processed on earth to enter heaven, purgatory, or hell right now. And we have total control over this process when we have Christ with us!
****Every Thought Counts
Sept. 2. Not just our words and deeds, every single thought we have matters—now we are provided with myriad opportunities for storing up treasures in heaven!
***Experiencing God's Wonders
Sept. 2. The more you praise Jesus, the more he exalts you. A wonderful way to feel wonderful!
**Beware of Dementia
Recently, quite a number of old folks I know have developed dementia. This should be a warning to all older persons who have not considered accepting Christ yet. My advice is to look into Christ when your mind is still clear, no matter what age you're at, as he is our only Savior and the one who can give you eternal life. Accepting him has absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain.
***Most Appropriate Prayer
Sept. 2. Asking for God's mercy greatly pleases the Lord and benefits ourselves.
***Blessing in Disguise
Sept. 1. Do not complain about your suffering. Accepting it for the Lord's sake will unite you with him and make you strong.
