"Broke is what happens when you let your yearnin’s get ahead of your earnin’s."

"the history of thought is a spiritual war." John Frame

To the King of the ages,
immortal,
invisible,
the only God,
be honor and glory
forever and ever.
Amen. . .

he who is the blessed
and only Sovereign,
the King of kings
and Lord of lords,
who alone has immortality,
who dwells in unapproachable light,
whom no one has ever seen
or can see.
To him be honor
and eternal dominion.
Amen

"Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things." ~ Jesus

"GOD, the great Creator of all things, doth uphold, direct, dispose, and govern all creatures, actions, and things,b from the greatest even to the least, by his most wise and holy providence, according to his infallible foreknowledge, and the free and immutable counsel of his own will,f to the praise of the glory of his wisdom, power, justice, goodness, and mercy" WCF 5.1

Habakkuk

There is a great scene in book 6 of paradise lost: the armies of heaven have been battling the fallen angels for 2 days. . . the fighting has been hard. Neither side gets an advantage.

Finally, the Father tells the SON: “your turn.”

So, on the third day, the Son gets on his battle gear and says to his army:

“this day from battle rest:
Faithful hath been your warfare, and of God
Accepted, fearless in his righteous cause;
And as ye have received, so have ye done,
Invincibly:

But of this cursed crew
The punishment to other hand belongs;
Vengeance is his, or whose he sole appoints:

Number to this day’s work is not ordained,
Nor multitude; stand only, and behold
God’s indignation on these godless poured
By me;

not you, but me, they have despised,

Yet envied; against me is all their rage,


Because the Father, to whom in Heaven s’preme
Kingdom, and power, and glory appertains,
Hath honoured me, according to his will.

Therefore to me their doom he hath assigned;
That they may have their wish, to try with me
In battle which the stronger proves; they all,
Or I alone against them; since by strength
They measure all, of other excellence
Not emulous, nor care who them excels;
Nor other strife with them do I vouchsafe.”

So spake the Son, and into terrour changed
His countenance too severe to be beheld,
And full of wrath bent on his enemies.

At once the Four spread out their starry wings
With dreadful shade contiguous, and the orbs
Of his fierce chariot rolled, as with the sound
Of torrent floods, or of a numerous host.
He on his impious foes right onward drove,
Gloomy as night; under his burning wheels
The stedfast empyrean shook throughout,
All but the throne itself of God. Full soon
Among them he arrived; in his right hand
Grasping ten thousand thunders, which he sent
Before him, such as in their souls infixed
Plagues:

They, astonished, all resistance lost,
All courage; down their idle weapons dropt:
O’er shields, and helms, and helmed heads he rode
Of Thrones and mighty Seraphim prostrate,

That wished the mountains now might be again
Thrown on them, as a shelter from his ire.

Nor less on either side tempestuous fell
His arrows, from the fourfold-visaged Four
Distinct with eyes, and from the living wheels
Distinct alike with multitude of eyes;
One Spirit in them ruled; and every eye
Glared lightning, and shot forth pernicious fire
Among the accursed, that withered all their strength,

And of their wonted vigour left them drained,
Exhausted, spiritless, afflicted, fallen.
Yet half his strength he put not forth, but checked
His thunder in mid volley; for he meant
Not to destroy, but root them out of Heaven:

“Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear, or a fool from any direction.”

Whoever is wise, let him understand these things;
whoever is discerning, let him know them;
for the ways of the Lord are right,
and the upright walk in them,
but transgressors stumble in them.

Hosea 14:9

"All of this means that you may call upon “Sophia” with all your might or you may pray to the “Heavenly Mother” every day or raise your hands toward heaven and say, “Hear me “Goddess/Mother,” but if you pray like this, you should know that you are not talking to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. He doesn’t respond to these prayers. Nobody is listening (except perhaps a demon or two who may decide to take a special interest in you). If, however, we address the Father through the Son in the Spirit, then we are addressing the Christian God in the way in which He has revealed Himself. We can know to whom we are talking." Jeff Meyers
