PARABLE:  
I take my laptop to studio sessions to update the website while
my producer finishes mixes. Last night he had so many completed tracks
to deliver to me that he suggested that,
instead of putting them on a flash drive to hand me, 
I could just give him my laptop's user name & password. 

I did: In moments he'd inserted a LOT of files.
I trust him (of course!), but was nervous about the process--
Having slower MiFi (& no cable access), I go to a lot of WiFi cafes.
He assured me:
No one can invade like that                        
without me giving them an ok & access....

SO WHAT ??

God told us the same centuries ago: 
People & Satan have NO ACCESS to control our minds>> 
Without us giving it to them. 

What does LORD God say ??  
"GUARD your heart /= mind... with ALL diligence."  
Proverbs 4:23   <click on link>

It's your choice and YOU CAN 
DESTROY all wrong thoughts that come into your mind. 
2nd Corinthians 10:3-5


God gives you full control to decide to 
strengthen your mind and
refuse to do or believe what is wrong.
First Peter 1:13  -- written by the guy who gave in to fear,
                         denied he even knew Jesus, and was FORGIVEN
                         by God as soon as he repented:   Matthew 26:74

PARABLE:  
A test I give early on to new guitar students goes something like this:
"Show me all the places you can find this B"  (which I play once). So, my students do.        I teach them beside a piano,
                                                   so I next ask the same Q of them there:
"Show me all the places you can find that B note you just played." 
And there's always the same result: Only one piano key out of the 88.

Few people think about fact that guitars and basses are Sonically 3D instruments.
You can go up .... or down & across in one direction... or up & across in another
to get the same musical note.... DUPLICATES.
BUT:  Pianos are linear, 2D. 
If you play a note to the right, its sound is a higher tone.
Play a note to the left, and the sound goes lower. And... No duplicates.

So each student learns that on the piano, unlike the guitar,
there is ONLY one key that matches "that B"...
Some religions try to tell us that we're like guitars... 
that we humans can be
GROUPED into "all like "his",  or others, "all like that"...

Not God The Creator... the Artist who proves His love of variety by the
example of Nature, and Oceanography, and Astronomy, and Geography....
 
We're each one of God's "piano keys" that has not a single match
in the World Thru HISTORY ...... or thru the FUTURE!
Joey West in a short study of Nehemiah 6 about the significance of EACH
person serving God there, wrote the following, found via Facebook today:

"You are the only 'you' that has ever existed. 
Out of every human that has lived  since the beginning of time----
the 7 billion people that are currently living on Earth, and 
all of the people who WILL  exist until the end of time---- 
you are unique and specifically made to be you." -- Joey West

A Psalm 147 parable:                                CLICK FOR LINK
God knows the name of each, unique star: And He knows yours.
=================================================================

What does LORD God say ??    Psalm 147 EXCITEMENT!

3 ​​He heals the brokenhearted  ​​And binds up their wounds.

4 ​​He counts the number of the stars; ​​He calls them all by name.

       (God who knows STAR NAMES  assuredly knows YOURS & mine!)

5 ​​Great is our Lord, and mighty in power;​​His understanding is infinite.

6 ​​The LORD lifts up the humble;​​ He casts the wicked down to the ground.

​

7 ​​Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; ​​Sing praises on the harp to our God,

                                                       (notice the guitar's ancestor here!)  

8 ​​Who covers the heavens with clouds, ​​Who prepares rain for the earth,

​​Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.

9 ​​He gives to the beast its food, ​​And to the young ravens that cry....

11 ​​The LORD takes pleasure in those who fear Him, ​​In those who hope in His mercy.

PARABLE:  
Ohhhhh.... what a Marvelous Parable idea via a DC snowplow driver!
News reporter just asked the driver beside the ditch why he HAD been on road.
... a roadside interview... !
Apparently not an "essential personnel" reason, the way he sorta
sheepishly smiled & dodged the Q.
Then she held her mic to the plow driver standing there beside them:
He looked straight into camera & said,
"I know you may have places to go; stay off the road so we can do our job
and you can go there tomorrow." .....
Parable! 

What does LORD God say ?? 

Psalm 46:10,  just one place where God tells us to WAIT on His timing,
& then our lives will get better!
"Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"
NOTE TO SELF: Just trust God to do "His job" & stay out of His way
 'til He tells me it's safe to get going again.

PARABLE:  
Absolutely a God thing unplanned even by a great pastor:
I'd just turned on ION TV to hear 1 of Michael Youssef's 2015-related real-life sermons.
The station intro'd his show. 
Then the screen began fast video clips of many TV shows: 
Cold Case, The Closer, The Listener, Flashpoint, and LEVERAGE
whose theme matched the lines spoken in EVERY clip:
  No matter what people do,
"even if we have to stand against our boss, 
we WILL fight for Justice", for what's Right.... 

I was thinking Cool !!  I always loved opening High School / College Age
Sunday School classes with clips like these as PARABLES to God's topic of day.
Then: Pastor Y began preaching on that very topic of Standing.
And I suddenly realized:
Those were just commercials-- yet helped EXPLAIN God's Words to come in sermon:

Another Evidence of God's working to help us understand His Word.

SO WHAT ??

Sometimes we think, "I'm too dumb to understand the Bible."
Jesus said these are LIES straight from Satan, trying to  discourage you....
words put into your mind by the FATHER OF LIES >>>  John 8:44.  Jesus said.  LINK

What does LORD God say ??  

JESUS promised to send The Holy Spirit to help us understand ALL
that Jesus had taught... and remember that, as God, the Son has been around
from the moment God first began teaching us people what is right, including Exodus 20.
John 14:26, starting at 23                       Click for LINK

23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me.

The Gift of His Peace

25 “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. 

26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, 

He will teach you all things, & bring to your remembrance 

all things that I said to you.

..................... which leads to PEACE! ..........

27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; 

not as the world gives do I give to you. 

Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
