Biblical Binoculars

11/19/2012

0 Comments

 
Every once in a while I try to give myself a reality check and live with biblical binoculars. 
I go outside and feel God’s luminary of the day shining sunny light into my darkness and chaos.  I sit by my
swimming pool and feel as if I am sitting by the waters of the wells of salvation. 

I hear the birds before I see them. I marvel at the chirping songs that have been sung since the first bird was born.  I saw a double rainbow this year, reminding me doubly of God’s promise not to destroy the entire earth again by flood.  These bows remind me of Noah who listened to God even though corruption was the norm in his generation.   

Noah walked with the God. So too must we walk with God during  these days which can be very dark indeed.  One only has to read the media headlines to see all the corruption and perversions and evil on the earth.  One only need read one victims story to feel deep heartache and grief.
 
Let us then, each of us, help build a spiritual ark, connecting our souls. Our wood will be our wholeheartedness in serving God.  Our tools will be our trust in God Eternal and faith in God Creator.  Our provisions are filled by our persistence in learning God’s Ways.  

Who knows? You could be the righteous person in our generation who tips God scales of justice with a grain of kindness.  Then God's Mercy will fill the wells and those who are spiritually thirsty will find God's Salvation. 
Just bring your own cup and a pair of biblical binoculars.

    The Golden Medina

    by Edwin Jerome Reuben & Nancy Reuben Greenfield

    When I was thirteen my father said he was going to write a book and I became his editor.
    I loved the book immediately because it had engaging characters, a lot of action, and some interesting philosophical and spiritual twists. 

    But I was an editor and there was plenty of work to do, especially after my father died.  In so many ways it The Golden Medina is a true blend of our interests and talents.

    The Golden Medina is an adolescent journey and coming of age story like none you have read.  Blending early Jewish and Italian immigrant cultures, this is truly a family saga with a twist.

    Whether you like a fast moving plot and unpredicatable characters or intelligent dialogue, this debut fiction is a rare find.
