Lost to the Grace

Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

Philippians 1:1-3

You know, it didn’t really matter who came bearing the message whether the most beautiful of saints, angels, or even the devil himself. What matters is the thus saith the Lord and his being true to his calling from there. Perhaps you don’t quite know what a calling is just yet. We’d only just remembered to give God our best praise in the most impossible of places and to so walk in his ways. It seems the people don’t really matter much either what with all the bishops and deacons. When it comes to the Word of the Lord, there’s fulfillment then also the preaching which is nothing more than simply bearing a message. What are some of the ways of bearing messages you can find? Last time was the why and this is the how, isn’t it? Sort of like when someone calls you in from doing whatever was tasked before the next best possible thing can also begin. See, you’ve already understood it somewhat from there. The how though very much matters at first. When the Lord Jesus appeared to the disciples by the side of the sea, these didn’t say ‘how’ much like Mary did prior even though they probably could’ve. That’s because these things are best accepted through faith and so seen kept close to the heart day after day until time comes to make them all seen. Time it seems has often favoured the brave. That’s to say those that are found oft taking the risk that fortunes will turn later out for their blessing. It didn’t though really when it came to these men, Paul and Timothy. They served someone greater than time or the temple as the grown people so often say being found as after the building. His name is Christ Jesus, the someone greater, and he’s so called because time doesn’t hardly seem to affect him. It bothers us a very good deal, which is why you’ll often see people growing first young and then old. Once, Paul was bound for his service to Christ and the Lord. The next he’s seen busy preaching to the churches and those to whom time had once served. The text refers to them as bishops and deacons, all just a fancy way of saying the titles that doesn’t much matter. What does though is that these too were with Jesus Christ our Lord, so that in order to find them, you’d first have to go seeking the building, even that of the Lord. Now by no means am I saying he’ll turn all your graves into blessings as seen then at first in his appearance to those in the garden well after he’d gone. That’s because just as before, we’re not focused on all the possible blessings. Instead, it’s on Christ the Lord and the grace, peace, and thanks that came trotting on after. For those that remember, you’re wondering no doubt where mercy has wandered off to have gotten so lost of the Lord. That’s because it’s gotten lost to the glory that follows. You know how that wrongdoing hasn’t ceased yet from the fold, being so found as though up and running around. You’ll only remember the grace and peace that came after next when it’s been all but lost to his face.
