A Second LAW+ of The Blind

 Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA+

The Law Incarnate+

 … Versus …

[ "Now I'm saved; I can sin all I want to." ]

GOD FORBID!

+  +  +

I the LORD, YHWH,

have called THEE+ 

in righteousness,

and will hold Thine+ hand,

and will keep THEE+,

and give THEE+ for a COVENANT+ 

 of the people,

for a LIGHT+ of the Gentiles;

To open the Blind eyes,

to bring out the prisoners 

from the prison,

and them that sit in darkness 

out of the prison house.

 I am the LORD, YHWH:

that is MY name:

and MY glory will I not give to another,

neither MY praise to graven images.

Isaiah 42: 6-8.

+  +  +

The marvelous workings of YHWH, The LORD GOD !  HIS heart is wide open to men. HE calls to them and invites them to HIMSELF.  This wonder-filled invitation comes through Our LORD  Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA.

How do we KNOW that ? 

Isaiah the Prophet tells us how it comes about. The LORD GOD , YHWH, brings forth the  M'SHIKHA+. 

HE gives the  M'SHIKHA+ a new place: as a COVENANT+ of the people and as a LIGHT+ unto the Gentiles.

This LIGHT+ is so great

that even the blind can see HIM+ !

... for HE+ opens the eyes

of the ones 

who are blinded at birth,

... in heart 

as well as in body.

+  +  +

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly FATHER,

Hallowed be Thy Name, O HOLY FATHER, and the Name of Thy HOLY SON+ ,  Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA+. 

I thank THEE+ for Thy Law, for giving forth the Divine Standard of Right, for teaching me what is wrong, and that Thy Standard does not change.

LORD  Y'SHU+, I have been blind. I have walked around in the darkness of my own Self.  I have not yielded to The LIGHT+ of Thy Word and submitted my heart --- totally --- unto THEE+ . 

O, Save me... for I cannot save myself.

Deliver me from the coldness of heart I have towards THEE+ , and manifested likewise towards others. 

Forgive me for placing my demands on others to feed this Self of mine. 

Let me rather desire that others remember THEE+ , O LORD, instead of me. Let me rather desire others to draw close to THEE+ instead of close to me.

Grant me Thy+ Companionship,  M'SHIKHA+ and deliver me from clamoring for the attention and interaction of others.

Glorify this lonely existence of mine; sanctify it with Thy+ Presences, O  Y'SHU+. 

I can live without others; I cannot live without THEE+. 

Hear the cry of my pitiful little heart, O LORD.

THOU+ Who+ bringeth LIGHT+ to the gentiles and rest to the weary of heart, open up my eyes that I not blindly run after a fulfilling of Self, in the darkness of my soul. Awaken my spirit with Thy+ SPIRIT, O  M'SHIKHA+.

This I pray through the BLOOD+ of the Ever-lasting COVENANT+ given to us through Y'SHU+ the M'SHIKHA+ our LORD. Amen.

+  +  +

In the Name of The FATHER,

Who created us;

And HIS HOLY SON+ Y'SHU+ ,

Who+ saves us;

And The Blessed 

RUACH ha KADOSH,

Who sanctifies us.
