Blessed Man - Now Think On This by Steve Martin


Blessed Man
Now Think On This
Steve Martin


‘Tis a blessed man of God I am;
So much of life I have to share.
Salvation came from my Lord above,
Now known by Him - my every hair.

When but a lad of five or so,
When Jesus came into my heart;
A Catholic boy in Iowa’s glow,
He’s blessed me from the very start.

Columbus High was where I went,
An education for life to come.
My teachers gave, and then was sent
To seek the Lord, and then some.

My wife to be was but a teen,
I had to wait for her - as us.
October’s light that 8th was seen,
No worries Mom, don’t make a fuss!

Soon came forth the quiver full,
With Josh and Ben to start.
Then Hannah, Christen – there ain’t no lull!
A family now will never part.

First Derek, then Mahesh and Bonnie served;
Then came Barry & Batya - both Jews.
My fruitful work, for Him deserved,
Eternal reward – now that’s Good News!

I bless Chelsie, Andrew, Jonathan. When?
Spouses for my kids they are;
Plus Daniel, Logan, Dylan, Jensen,
Jack, Payton and Levi - by far!

Continues on my life these days,
To know His will and walk therein.
A blessed man in all His ways,
I love my Lord. Thus all for Him.

THANK YOU YESHUA (JESUS)!


And I love you too,

Ahava Love Letter (#49) - "Fill My Heart"


"Fill My Heart"


"So when He came ashore, 

He saw a huge crowd; 

and, filled with compassion for them,

He healed those of them who were sick.” 

(Matthew 14:14)

Complete Jewish Bible


Dear family of friends,

The red light on the clock radio shone a bright 3:00. As in “a.m.” As in “early in the morning.”

As He has been doing these last four weeks, since that week of Passover in March, which was the same week as Resurrection Sunday, Ruach HaKodesh (the Holy Spirit) woke me up. By now I was looking forward to it. Time with Him again  - in the quiet morning hours. No noise. No TV. No distractions from hearing and receiving instructions from Him. From His heart to mine.

I did the usual, just to further wake up - check the Blackberry for new messages. Yes, 12 e-mails, 31 Facebook postings. Even a Tweet appearance this morning from Wane.

After the birth of our 5th grandchild yesterday (April 20), the honorable Jack Andrew Blade, to our youngest daughter Christen and newly commissioned father Andrew, (making Jack the 4th grandson prince, with Dylan Joy still as the single Princess), there was a bit more clamor on my social media networks. I love connections!

When I finally sat down in my black, fake leather rocking chair, that has dutifully served as my place of prayer to meet with my loving Creator, I opened my Jewish New Testament Bible to the next chapter I was to read this day. It was Matthew 14.

When I got to verse 14, He touched my heart.

“ So when He came ashore, He saw a huge crowd; and, filled with compassion for them,
He healed those of them who were sick.” CJB” (Matthew 14:14)

As He sometimes does when He wants me to share something with others, my own heart started to beat a bit faster. I could sense the inspiration come into my spirit, as that “feeling” started to rise in my chest. (And I knew it wasn’t the cup of coffee.)

His words to me were to simply pray, “Fill my heart with those things that fill Yours.”

And so I did. And I repeated it again. And again. And again. (Even as I write this my spirit continues to flicker with His excitement building in me, and my vision increasing, for the nations, and love for His people.

He is also wanting to speak to you too. Maybe by having you pray this same enduring word. By speaking softly out His love for you and the crying nations. Speaking it purposefully out of your own heart.

“Fill my heart with those things that fill Yours.”

I know He will. By simply asking. And then see what happens! (I dare you!)

Ahava to my family of friends,

Steve Martin
Founder/President
