Triage of Words
Triage (Tre-azh)
A process in which things are ranked in terms of
importance or priority.
A System used to allocate a scarce commodity...
"To the earth-walking Christian,
ankle-deep in dust,
who has never seen heaven opened
or beheld a vision of God,
this will seem all out of order,
too emotional, too extreme.
But it is the way of the strong eagles of the kingdom,
the prophets,
the apostles,
the reformers and revivalists.
These fly high and see far,
and that they are not understood
is no great wonder.
The sky-loving eagle, screaming in the sun,
may be a puzzle to the contented biddy scratching in the yard,
but that is no good argument against the eagle."

The Gift of Salt:
Once upon a time there was a king with two sons.
He asked them, "How much do you love me"?
The first son said, "I love you more than all the king's treasures."
The second son said, "I love you more than salt."
The first son pleased the father but the father banished the second...
As the second son left the castle he instructed the cook to prepare his
fathers's meals without salt.
After some time the king began to loss his appetite and asked the doctors why?
The doctors had no explanation.
Then the cook simply said, "I have removed the salt, that is all...."
With this, the king came to realize the importance of salt and the importance of his son's wisdom and love.
Since our life's question, for it is in short supply, is to find the answers as to why?
we must not seek below what is only found on high.
What is a sign, but and indication that we need direction.
Why do we read a sign?
Is it beacause we are lost?
Is it because we are curious?
Either answer is right
Direction because we question.
A Question is the first step in knowledge an
answer is but continuation thereof.

We must learn not to possess the truth, But to be possessed by the truth.
I watched them tearing a building down
a gang of men in a busy town.
With a ho-heave-ho and a lusty yell
they swung a beam and the
sidewalk fell I asked the foreman,
" are these men skilled and the men you'd hire if you had to build?"
He gave a laugh, and said, "No indeed!
Just common labor is all I need.
I can easily wreck in a day or two
what builders have taken a year to do!
And I thought to myself, as I went my way,
which of these roles have I tried to play?
Am I a builder who works with care
Measuring by the rule and square?
Am I shaping my deeds to a well-made plan?
Patiently doing the best I can?
Or am I a wrecker, who walks the town,
content with the labor of tearing down?
A chilling tale
that truth be known
by others about others
by self unknown
Ordinary Baby
by
Gloria Gaither
He was just an ordinary baby that's the way He planned it, maybe.
Anything but common would have kept Him apartfrom the children that He came to rescue
limited to some elite few when He was the only child who asked to be born.
And He came to us with eyes wide open knowing how we're hurt and broken
Choosing to partake of all our joy and pain. He was just an ordinary baby, that's the way He planned it maybe
so that we would come to Him and not be afraid. He was ordinary with exception
of miraculous conception both His birth and death He planned from the start
But between His entrance and His exit was a life that has affected
everyone who's ever walked the earth to this day With no airs of condesention
He became God's core extension giving you and me the chance to be remade.
He was just an ordinary baby that's the way He planned it, maybe
so that we would come to Him and not be afraid.
How can we contrive to be at once astonished at the world & yet at home in it?
We can not find our way back to God by being subservient to ignorance
