                  There comes a time when all the torment and agony
                  overwhelms us and the tears never stop.
                  We ask constantly God,where are you?
                  We never stop to think,we are causing our own demise.

                   Usually confusion is a by-product,
                    of our enemys success.
                   We may continue to let ourselves be clouded
                   in our spirit?
                   Never suspecting,blank in understanding,
                   wrapped so heavily in our own ignorance.(not knowing)

                   So deeply can we do this with our own emotions
                   years can pass before we begin to cry out
                   for mercy from our God?
                   We can even place our own selfishness between
                   wanting an answer from our God,and deliverance.

                   Sounds self-defeating doesn't it?

                   Yet,in His wonderful mercy,He sends someone
                   into our lives to share His truth with us.
                   For His wisdom has even taken this scenario
                   into account.

                   In His precise timing,the Holy Spirit reveals
                   Gods truth to the deepest of wounded hearts.
                   It is at a time usually after many years of not
                   knowing how,bad teaching,or no teaching,
                   God rises up in His love for His child.

                   God has prepared some for special therapy of the Spirit,
                   by combining certain skills of ministry to
                   bring healing,and deliverance to those
                   who have come close to no hope.

                   With the help of the Holy Spirit,the Healer,
                   God intervenes and shortly with understanding
                   and love,and the teaching of truth: delivers
                   one more soul back to His heart.

                   A work done in concert by Jesus's friend
                   who knows those sent to him by His God,
                   shall return them to the fold.

                   Such is the ministry of the retriever!
       
                  "This is my commandment,That ye love one
                   another, as I have loved you."
                   Greater love hath no man than this,
                   that a man lay down his life for his friends."
                                                                 John 15:12,13

                  "For I am persuaded, that neither death,
                   nor life,nor angels nor principalities,nor
                   powers,nor things present,nor things to
                   come,
                   Nor height, nor depth, nor any other
                   creature, shall be able to separate us from the
                   love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our
                   Lord."
                                                                 Romans 8:38,39
                 
                  "And ye shall know the truth, and the
                   truth shall make you free.
                   If the Son therefore shall make you free,
                   ye shall be free indeed."
                                                                 John 8:32,36

                   In His love and mercy,                        lampwicke    xxx
