They that trust in the Lord shall be as Mount Zion, which cannot be removed, abideth for ever. Life with Me is not immunity from difficulties, but peace in difficulties. My guidance is often by shut doors. Love bangs as well as opens. Joy is the result of faithful trusting ac- ceptance of My Will, when it seems not joyous. St. Paul, my servant, learnt this lesson of the banged doors when he said “our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” Expect rebuffs until this is learned, it is the only way. Joy is the daughter of The Calm.

“The Lord is the true God, He is the living God, and an ever lasting King. . . . The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens, He had made the heavens.

Lent 1C March 10, 2019Luke 4:1-13 Rev. James Dannals
In some circles, today is known as Temptation Sunday. Every year, on the first Sunday in Lent, we hear the story of Jesus’ temptation. And whether we take our cue from Adam and Eve in the Garden, or from Jesus in the wilderness, we are invited to see what has gone wrong with God’s good world and to discover what our own temptation is really all about. In the early church, the season of Lent developed as a time when catechumens, those preparing for Baptism, were formed, and mentored, in the Christian spiritual life. And what they learned in Lent — what I believe we need to learn during Lent — are the very things we are tempted to avoid:
(1) Life is hard. (2) You are going to die. (3) You are not that important. (4) You are not in control. (5) Your life is not about you.
Authentic spirituality is always about letting go. To be signed with the cross in baptism, at the beginning of the journey, is to know ahead of time that Life is hard. That way you don’t waste your life trying to make it easy for yourself. To know that life is hard is to know that the way of the cross is the way of Life.
You are going to die. Without taking this truth deep in our inner being, we are trapped in a pathological cycle of trying to find whom to blame for it. As Richard Rohr suggests, all of our wounds must become sacred wounds to prepare us for the final letting go. In other words, what we need to learn in Lent is that authentic spirituality is about what you do with your pain. You are not that important. The cycle of blame and shame leads to a vicious cycle of an inflated, and then a deflated, sense of self that will become addicted to the need for constant reassurance. Humility, or authentic self-love, is the spiritual gift one receives from knowing that you are not that important.
You are not in control. The LentenJourney, as with Jesus’ journey in the wilderness, is one of being led to the limits of our own resources and knowing our inability to control outcomes. This way, we learn to rely upon one another and to trust in the goodness of God. Your life is not about you. You are part of Something much bigger than yourself. Your job is to listen, obey, and adore. We are part of a Great and HolyMystery. If we do not embrace this wondrous GoodNews, we are tempted to assume that we create all the patterns and it is our job to figure them out by ourselves. In other words, our primary job is not calculation but contemplation. Contemplation teaches us that nothing is wasted. There is a lesson in everything that happens to us. And until you have lived through it, which means to have died in it, it is not yet true.
One of my favorite Peanuts cartoons shows Lucy shouting to Charlie Brown: “You know what the whole trouble with you is, Charlie Brown?” Charlie breaks out of a dazed look, peers angrily at Lucy and shouts, “No! And I don’t want to know! Leave me alone!” The third frame of the cartoon pictures Charlie stomping away from Lucy in disgust. And the short story concludes with Lucy standing alone, shouting into the distance: “The whole trouble with you Charlie Brown, is you won’t listen to what the whole trouble with you is.” We are indeed tempted to not listen to what the whole trouble with us is.
“Temptation as an abstraction does not work very well, and that is why the writers of Gennesis are at very great pains to give temptation a personality, a persona, a character… Thus, in the story, Temptation is given the form of a serpent; a name, the Tempter; and qualities we will recognize and even appreciate. He is called the subtlest of all the creatures… (The) serpent has all the best lines, and we are meant to understand that the serpent is the actor and that Adam and Eve are acted upon. There is neither anyone nor any thing to shield them from the impact of this, the mother of all temptations… It reminds one of the Victor Borge piece where the Danish comic recalls a conversation between Adam and Eve… where Eve, in a fit of unanticipated jealousy, asks Adam: ‘Do you really love me?’ And Adam replies, ‘Who else?’ It is the intention of Genesis to give us as clear and uncluttered a view of the moral stage as possible, so that we will not fail to get it.”
At the beginning of his ministry, as Jesus is beginning his life work, he encounters the Tempter in the wilderness. This episode with the Tempter (in Greek diabolos and in Hebrew satan), this episode in the wilderness occurs immediately after Jesus’ baptism where he hears the words, “You are my beloved.” Don’t you find it interesting that, immediately after the descent of the Spirit, Jesus is led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted? Does this not suggest that, however much we may be vulnerable to temptation when we are struggling, and vulnerable to temptation when we are weak, Jesus’ temptations came at a moment of strength, when he was filled with the Spirit? Is there not something for us to learn here? As Gomes reminds us:
“Temptation appeals to moral vanity. Goodness is inevitably the host for the parasitical temptation, and thus goodness must be constantly addressed and challenged. When people ask why preachers waste their time on the people in the pews, ‘preaching to the converted’ or ‘preaching to the choir,’ they fail to understand that it is those who aspire to goodness who most need to be reminded of and protected against the dangers of moral ambiguity that is the seed of Temptation. Those who are in church are like those who are in a hospital; they are not there because they are specimens of virtue or health. They are there because they know their need. Hospitals are not healthier places than other places, but in the hospital the weapons to fight the illness are ready at hand.”
So too, it can be with us. Whether we draw it from reflection upon the goodness of God’s creation or from the life which we as Christians feel ourselves to be beckoned, life as
intends it is a life of becoming. It is life on the way as distinct from having arrived. We are called to a dynamic, not a static way of being. And as every adolescent knows, to this experience of becoming there belongs the sense of not-yet-being, not having achieved what one must achieve in order fully to be. This sense of impermanence, this not-yet-being, this state of no-fixed-abode, is part of the goodness of God‘s creation.
As much as we may be tempted to believe that our most dangerous enemy is terrorism, or an economic recession, immigration or those opposed to immigration, capitalism or socialism, republicans or democrats; every year, on this day, the Church invites us to know that our greatest temptation is all about the desire to have arrived, the desire to possess a permanent abode, the desire to transcend the precariousness of life.
The temptation of Adam and Eve, the Temptation of Jesus, the Temptation of Everyman and Everywoman is to have their being rather than to receive it, daily, like the manna in the wilderness or the “daily bread” of Jesus’ model prayer. It is the temptation to possess being rather than to trust the One who gives us our being, daily. We have fallen asleep to our true nature. We have fallen asleep to who we truly are: God’s beloved. We live much of our lives in a trance. We are so often mistaken in the way we see God and the way we see ourselves because we have fallen asleep to our true nature.
We have fallen asleep to who we truly are. We have failed to trust.
Let us have the courage and the humility this Lent to be willing to listen to what the whole trouble with us is.

About a month ten days AFTER me and mt Dad caught Maynard Ferguson do his thing on his HIGH VOLTAGE tour. That inspiration was smooth. It had a strangely recommending urge to it. Set with inspiration, David found himself having lunch, in Brazoswood HIGH School; with fellow jazz band-mates, (1st lunch) as usual he had a great story to tell about his Thursday night exploit with his Father. “Man! The club was too sweet, i:e ROCKEFELLER’S, a stage was small but big enough to hold those acts that David was int-o the venue was a disco, Dave did frequent in late-hours/early-mornings that year, it’s side-stage in by the bayou was the scene that week of our Houston dates: @ THE AXIOM/PTL; the truth be known: PTL was gritty hole in the ground, the gig was the better ‘paper announcer’: PUBLIC NEWS that seems to have gone way of the dodo PTL was not deserving of a refined actsuch as THEYMIGHT BEGIANTS, they didn’t show at the disco by the river, blocks away from DOWNTOWNGROUNDS space-city’s precursor to STARBUCKS; at least in that hamlet.. anyways; where we headed? uh, ‘m not sure. the brain injury that met me in 1992 fiddles with this mind still, it is not me who can convince any of you; but David can only share the thing that woke me from a slumber that began the week after my ‘accident’. in that period of time the truth came. it’s the job of me who was asleep like a great many of you, my old relations in my time being a citizen of the best state for us to grow inside of. freedom was key; making mistakes, that sort of freedom: to learn via the trial’s and error of our ways. it is that gift that had eclipsed October second, 1992, 11:3?, as driving that glorious honduh rebel 250. that type of transportation is never one that you should be warned from; THAT is not the intent of this writing, in a style praised by a junior year English teacher: RonRozelle. to transfer mood, and provide insight to the audience chosen about personal concepts was the key ingredient: the university choice for me.

Watchman Nee was born in 1903 in Swatow, China; a answer to his mother’s prayer.
Having already born two daughters, prayed if God should give her a son, she would
give him back to God. The boy grew up, showed every sign: promise except he had
no interest in things spiritual. It was not till he was seventeen years of age that he was met by the Lord. He knew at that time that he must accept Christ Jesus as his Savior, yet he struggled over the necessity of surrendering his life to the Lord. The love of Christ finally overwhelmed him and he capitulated to Christ. This was on April 29, 1920. He had such a love for the Word ofGod that he studied it almost incessantly, within a very short period having read the whole Bible several times. He began to witness for Christ to his school mates and soon earned the nickname “preacher.”
In searching the Scripture, he, with a few other believers discovered simplicity and purity that is towards Christ. He determined to follow the Word of God explicitly…nothing but The Word.
In 1927 he began his life work in Shanghai, where he was able to practice the vision which The Lord had shown him in The Word. He understood that the eternal that purpose of God is Christ and His Church. Through the mighty working of TheHoly Spirit and the faithful ministry of this servant of God, this testimony spread over the vast land of China.
In 1949, the Communists took over China. Knowing what would be there waiting for him back home nonetheless felt strongly his responsibility toward God, His Church. So he returned to China from Hong Kong in 1950. In April of 1952 he was seized and put in prison. He was later falsely accused as a spy; was sentenced: twenty years of imprisonment. In prison he was not allowed to do anything but what was assigned him by prison authority. Then, at the expiration of his sentence term, and was not released, the news arrived quickly he died faithful to God.

David,
I’ve been getting your emails…was really busy with Holy Week the past two weeks so unable to reply but wanted you to know I am receiving them.
Blessings to you & your family,

There is so much in me mind; glad to get an actually get an e-mail from you with a few thoughts! HA! no offense intended, I imagine you’ve seen allot, but you do not devulge much; especially to a book you found on the net.
In our lives, there will always be things that are sad. Do not let them bring you down, instead turn them into something beautiful.
There will be times that the sadness will be too great. Perhaps you can use that as a reason to help others. There is no greater loss than to drive the Lord from your heart. All that you lose then is what you willingly threw away and the emptiness can never be filled.

“Life is pain, highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.” — William Goldman
The first person that comes to mind is Gary Vaynerchuk,
whose constant social media posting encourages folks to chase happiness instead of money.
Well, sorry to break it to you, but life is pain. If you do not accept this, life is going to break your heart on a daily basis.
The pursuit of happiness? How does that even work? How does one go about it? How long does it last?
Don’t wish for fairytales. Just don’t.
The truth is that you have to make use of your suffering. That you must do your best to choose the battles you want to fight.
Do what is hard every single day, do what is meaningful, and happiness will come as a by-product of your actions.

“People always get what they want. But there is a price for everything. Failures are either those who do not know what they want or are not prepared to pay the price asked them. The price varies from individual to individual. Some get things at bargain-sale prices, others only at famine prices. But it is no use grumbling. Whatever price you are asked, you must pay.” – W.H. Auden
There’s a price that one must pay for anything. The price is sometimes time, sometimes energy, sometimes compromising oneself.
If someone has more than you, if someone is better than you at a certain skill, you can rest assured that they are worst than you in other areas.
We get what we are willing to sacrifice for.
People. Teens, 20-Somethings, Adults even; there’s a theory in THIS head that has been RUNNING A RACE that doesn’t seem to our run-of-the-mill-situation: those on this web in the mass media market – media is bullshit on EVERY desktop. there’re tricks that newbies, and even those who THINK they know some stuff concerning this ill WORLD-WIDE-WEB.
Americans as a whole “should be prepared that they are going to have to hunker down; significantly more than we as a country are doing” in order to stop a spread of covid-19, said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of National Institute OF Allergy and Infectious Disease. — Daniel
Where vigilance should be, strictly, j to THERE IS OTHER infections. We should be aware of. PROTECT YOUR PASSWORDS! in fact you may like to change THEM ALL; there is a massive amount of tricks hackers use to get said ‘keys’ ou identity, reputation, bank accounts, important records that you may share with those loved, those that would never do something big enough to ruin you. Be on look out for tricksters that could not care in the least about YOUR own well-being.
One trick is to create the illusion that it is alright to log onto sights by signing into THAT account and ee n they go so far as to require you to use the OTHER websight’s password to access that page that is NOT affiliated WITH the sight you’re logging onto. In so doing you let your passwords take a cruise an, AND ‘through THEIR tubes’ of THEIR MAINFRAME, or something like that and letting any hack full view of YOUR password to a nest of THEIR wires to THEIR BRAIN SUBSTITUTE. be careful…

Lent 1C March 10, 2019Luke 4:1-13 Rev. James Dannals
In some circles, today is known as Temptation Sunday. Every year, on the first Sunday in Lent, we hear the story of Jesus’ temptation. And whether we take our cue from Adam and Eve in the Garden, or from Jesus in the wilderness, we are invited to see what has gone wrong with God’s good world and to discover what our own temptation is really all about. In the early church, the season of Lent developed as a time when catechumens, those preparing for Baptism, were formed, and mentored, in the Christian spiritual life. And what they learned in Lent — what I believe we need to learn during Lent — are the very things we are tempted to avoid:
(1) Life is hard. (2) You are going to die. (3) You are not that important. (4) You are not in control. (5) Your life is not about you.
Authentic spirituality is always about letting go. To be signed with the cross in baptism, at the beginning of the journey, is to know ahead of time that Life is hard. That way you don’t waste your life trying to make it easy for yourself. To know that life is hard is to know that the way of the cross is the way of Life.
You are going to die. Without taking this truth deep in our inner being, we are trapped in a pathological cycle of trying to find whom to blame for it. As Richard Rohr suggests, all of our wounds must become sacred wounds to prepare us for the final letting go. In other words, what we need to learn in Lent is that authentic spirituality is about what you do with your pain. You are not that important. The cycle of blame and shame leads to a vicious cycle of an inflated, and then a deflated, sense of self that will become addicted to the need for constant reassurance. Humility, or authentic self-love, is the spiritual gift one receives from knowing that you are not that important.
You are not in control. The LentenJourney, as with Jesus’ journey in the wilderness, is one of being led to the limits of our own resources and knowing our inability to control outcomes. This way, we learn to rely upon one another and to trust in the goodness of God. Your life is not about you. You are part of Something much bigger than yourself. Your job is to listen, obey, and adore. We are part of a Great and HolyMystery. If we do not embrace this wondrous GoodNews, we are tempted to assume that we create all the patterns and it is our job to figure them out by ourselves. In other words, our primary job is not calculation but contemplation. Contemplation teaches us that nothing is wasted. There is a lesson in everything that happens to us. And until you have lived through it, which means to have died in it, it is not yet true.
One of my favorite Peanuts cartoons shows Lucy shouting to Charlie Brown: “You know what the whole trouble with you is, Charlie Brown?” Charlie breaks out of a dazed look, peers angrily at Lucy and shouts, “No! And I don’t want to know! Leave me alone!” The third frame of the cartoon pictures Charlie stomping away from Lucy in disgust. And the short story concludes with Lucy standing alone, shouting into the distance: “The whole trouble with you Charlie Brown, is you won’t listen to what the whole trouble with you is.” We are indeed tempted to not listen to what the whole trouble with us is.
“Temptation as an abstraction does not work very well, and that is why the writers of Gennesis are at very great pains to give temptation a personality, a persona, a character… Thus, in the story, Temptation is given the form of a serpent; a name, the Tempter; and qualities we will recognize and even appreciate. He is called the subtlest of all the creatures… (The) serpent has all the best lines, and we are meant to understand that the serpent is the actor and that Adam and Eve are acted upon. There is neither anyone nor any thing to shield them from the impact of this, the mother of all temptations… It reminds one of the Victor Borge piece where the Danish comic recalls a conversation between Adam and Eve… where Eve, in a fit of unanticipated jealousy, asks Adam: ‘Do you really love me?’ And Adam replies, ‘Who else?’ It is the intention of Genesis to give us as clear and uncluttered a view of the moral stage as possible, so that we will not fail to get it.”
At the beginning of his ministry, as Jesus is beginning his life work, he encounters the Tempter in the wilderness. This episode with the Tempter (in Greek diabolos and in Hebrew satan), this episode in the wilderness occurs immediately after Jesus’ baptism where he hears the words, “You are my beloved.” Don’t you find it interesting that, immediately after the descent of the Spirit, Jesus is led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted? Does this not suggest that, however much we may be vulnerable to temptation when we are struggling, and vulnerable to temptation when we are weak, Jesus’ temptations came at a moment of strength, when he was filled with the Spirit? Is there not something for us to learn here? As Gomes reminds us:
“Temptation appeals to moral vanity. Goodness is inevitably the host for the parasitical temptation, and thus goodness must be constantly addressed and challenged. When people ask why preachers waste their time on the people in the pews, ‘preaching to the converted’ or ‘preaching to the choir,’ they fail to understand that it is those who aspire to goodness who most need to be reminded of and protected against the dangers of moral ambiguity that is the seed of Temptation. Those who are in church are like those who are in a hospital; they are not there because they are specimens of virtue or health. They are there because they know their need. Hospitals are not healthier places than other places, but in the hospital the weapons to fight the illness are ready at hand.”
So too, it can be with us. Whether we draw it from reflection upon the goodness of God’s creation or from the life which we as Christians feel ourselves to be beckoned, life as
intends it is a life of becoming. It is life on the way as distinct from having arrived. We are called to a dynamic, not a static way of being. And as every adolescent knows, to this experience of becoming there belongs the sense of not-yet-being, not having achieved what one must achieve in order fully to be. This sense of impermanence, this not-yet-being, this state of no-fixed-abode, is part of the goodness of God‘s creation.
As much as we may be tempted to believe that our most dangerous enemy is terrorism, or an economic recession, immigration or those opposed to immigration, capitalism or socialism, republicans or democrats; every year, on this day, the Church invites us to know that our greatest temptation is all about the desire to have arrived, the desire to possess a permanent abode, the desire to transcend the precariousness of life.
The temptation of Adam and Eve, the Temptation of Jesus, the Temptation of Everyman and Everywoman is to have their being rather than to receive it, daily, like the manna in the wilderness or the “daily bread” of Jesus’ model prayer. It is the temptation to possess being rather than to trust the One who gives us our being, daily. We have fallen asleep to our true nature. We have fallen asleep to who we truly are: God’s beloved. We live much of our lives in a trance. We are so often mistaken in the way we see God and the way we see ourselves because we have fallen asleep to our true nature.
We have fallen asleep to who we truly are. We have failed to trust.
Let us have the courage and the humility this Lent to be willing to listen to what the whole trouble with us is.
———- Forwarded message ——— From: Atrium Health <>< https://atriumhealth.org ><> Date: Fri, Jun 19, 2020, 2:41 PM what WHAT NC, IS TO US Accepting the Status Quo is Simply Going Backward
millions across our nation will celebrate Juneteenth, commemorating the end of slavery in the United States 155 years ago.
While June 19, 1865, was two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, on this day, I, along with many others, stand on the shoulders of countless heroes both known and unknown, black, brown and white; who have come before us and have lived and died for the American declaration that allarecreated equal and allshouldbefree, pursue life, liberty and happiness.
This Juneteenth, feels oddly different from previous years, of celebration, because of the recent, senseless deaths of several people of color. It has made me reflect and recognize how much has been done, but how much farther we have still to go. With this in mind, it was important for me to share some of my personal thoughts on this important day. For my full message, please feel free to read my post:
It’s important to note that if we truly want to understand the roots of anger and despair that has gripped our country in recent weeks, then we need to have deeper conversations about the difficulties being faced and not be content with the status quo. Now, more than ever, we need to understand disparities in health are inextricably linked to disparities in wealth, and we can’t solve for the former unless we are committed to solving for the latter. At AtriumHealth, I’m very proud of the work we are doing to solve for both.
These are just a few examples of what we are doing at Atrium Health – and yet, we know that more still needs to be done. If there is a silver lining from the injustice happening around our country, it’s the amount of good people in our world who are no longer sitting silently on the sidelines. And, I truly believe there are even more who are willing to step up, stare inequality in the face, and say
“nomore.”
Real change starts in each of our own hearts and will require a collective effort. We must act, together. We must pledge to be present. To break down barriers and do our part to close gaps. To reach out to those who are struggling. To bring our authentic selves to the table. To open and promote a space where everyone is welcome. To have courageous conversations; where we listen; and learn from one another. To stand up for what we firmly believe.
So, in sum:
This 155th Celebration of Juneteenth, we at AtriumHealth believe it is time for every single one of us to commit to working as one to eliminate the systemic racism and prejudice that are still real in our present as they were in our past.
As the landscape changes, we must change as well. Standing still and accepting the status quo is simply going backward.
riorarerecordsdecidedyearago “once in a lifetime” ‘5IsSpAOD6K8’ X’s for Eyes is the act i spoke of that would be when i got to college, John’s. now, THAT was a bit tooo many ‘i’s,’ that band was not, specific – wise, about David. \ NOW /, THAT ULTRA-FUN GIG IS ABOUT is A promise, kept by Him. 1988 it was, after see -ng THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS con Shannon Smith AT ROCKEFELLERS stage. About a month ten days AFTER me and mt Dad caught Maynard Ferguson do his thing on his HIGH VOLTAGE tour. That inspiration was smooth. It had a strangely recommending urge to it. Set with inspiration, David found himself having lunch, in Brazoswood HIGH School; with fellow jazz band-mates, (1st lunch) as usual he had a great story to tell about his Thursday night exploit with his Father. “Man! The club was too sweet, i:e ROCKEFELLER’S, a stage was small but big enough to hold those acts that David was int-o the venue was a disco, Dave did frequent in late-hours/early-mornings that year, it’s side-stage in by the bayou was the scene that week of our Houston dates: @ THE AXIOM/PTL; the truth be known: PTL was gritty hole in the ground, the gig was the better ‘paper announcer’: PUBLIC NEWS that seems to have gone way of the dodo PTL was not deserving of a refined actsuch as THEYMIGHT BEGIANTS, they didn’t show at the disco by the river, blocks away from DOWNTOWNGROUNDS space-city’s precursor to STARBUCKS; at least in that hamlet.. anyways; where we headed? uh, ‘m not sure. the brain injury that met me in 1992 fiddles with this mind still, it is not me who can convince any of you; but David can only share the thing that woke me from a slumber that began the week after my ‘accident’. in that period of time the truth came. it’s the job of me who was asleep like a great many of you, my old relations in my time being a citizen of the best state for us to grow inside of. freedom was key; making mistakes, that sort of freedom: to learn via the trial’s and error of our ways. it is that gift that had eclipsed October second, 1992, 11:3?, as driving that glorious honduh rebel 250. that type of transportation is never one that you should be warned from; THAT is not the intent of this writing, in a style praised by a junior year English teacher: RonRozelle. to transfer mood, and provide insight to the audience chosen about personal concepts was the key ingredient: the university choice for me.

When the weight of the world squeezes you until you feel like you can’t breathe God offers peace to you. He declared it. He declared it when he said that the reason why you see why do see only one set of footprints s because He is CARRYING YOU!

Our Lord, we know that Thou Art Great able to deliver us. I Am your deliverer. Trust in Me absolutely. Know that I Will do the very best for you. Do be ready and willing for My Will to be done. Know that with Me all things are possible. Cling joyfully to that truth. Say many times, “All things are possible with My Master, My Lord, My Friend.” This truth, accepted and firmly believed in, the ladder up which soul can climb from lowest of pits to elevated of heights. If it be so, our God whom we serve; is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, He will deliver us out of thine hand, O King. Daniel 3:17— Psalm 18.6 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth to life
a life, is few there be that find it. Matthew 7:14 We seek Thee as in Thou hast told us. In seeking you shall find; for when He see’s you seeking one sought My Presence in vain. No one ever sought My Help in vain. A breath of desire and My Spirit is there replenish and renew. Sometimes weariness exhaustion aren’t signs of lack of spirit but the guiding The Spirit. Wonderful things you not have happened but the physical weariness, mind-weariness My servants, which made resting apart; giving up of work, a necessity, Though My Way may seem a narrow way, yet leads to Life, abundant Life. Follow it. It’s not so narrow but that I can tread beside you. Never lonely with such companionship. A Comrade infinitely tender, infinitely strong, and He will go the with you.
Now unto Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the Presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:24-25

Watchman Nee was born in 1903 in Swatow, China; a answer to his mother’s prayer.
Having already born two daughters, prayed if God should give her a son, she would
give him back to God. The boy grew up, showed every sign: promise except he had
no interest in things spiritual. It was not till he was seventeen years of age that he was met by the Lord. He knew at that time that he must accept Christ Jesus as his Savior, yet he struggled over the necessity of surrendering his life to the Lord. The love of Christ finally overwhelmed him and he capitulated to Christ. This was on April 29, 1920. He had such a love for the Word ofGod that he studied it almost incessantly, within a very short period having read the whole Bible several times. He began to witness for Christ to his school mates and soon earned the nickname “preacher.”
In searching the Scripture, he, with a few other believers discovered simplicity and purity that is towards Christ. He determined to follow the Word of God explicitly…nothing but The Word.
In 1927 he began his life work in Shanghai, where he was able to practice the vision which The Lord had shown him in The Word. He understood that the eternal that purpose of God is Christ and His Church. Through the mighty working of TheHoly Spirit and the faithful ministry of this servant of God, this testimony spread over the vast land of China.
In 1949, the Communists took over China. Knowing what would be there waiting for him back home nonetheless felt strongly his responsibility toward God, His Church. So he returned to China from Hong Kong in 1950. In April of 1952 he was seized and put in prison. He was later falsely accused as a spy; was sentenced: twenty years of imprisonment. In prison he was not allowed to do anything but what was assigned him by prison authority. Then, at the expiration of his sentence term, and was not released, the news arrived quickly he died faithful to God.
open boarders are ahead of their time; i think; it’s a tragedy the less civilized of countries have not yet been masters of self control. only the elders of h thinkers did an examining of this; the head of a communistic regime is being held back from action that would not be suitable, insomuch as pleasing those higher-ups of that ruling class. it’s a big big conception that the actual rulers of the biggest population, on earth only let that guy THINK his power is the end-all-be-all. Chinese?
‘been there (democracy) done that,’ ages, ions ago
in the summer of 1988, band practice, Lalania and i discussed our respective faith in God; where we said as either of us… perish before we grow old, That we each a that our ambition’s will be realized before we die; both of us knew where we we each headed; Mrs. Riley Hall married, had 5 boys, which is her hope, her being trooper material; she knew in her heart God’s going to be when ever she was, and she knew Him.
PROMOTE THIS? Lee we would appreciate it; as will David.
Listen to Charles; hear what’s spoken; disobedience will convict you; He will change your heart’s aim. My story is not important here; do not wish to tell it…
But, as Lalania and i promised each other that whoever goes when our time’s up we did say to each other “I will be waiting, and will save you a seat for you; on the clouds above in His wonderful Heaven.”
later that year never did learn sall she knew, but respected her mind… This awareness we shared, of Him, was our thing.
There is a disturbance OUR beloved country. Life is a out ti, well the most recent words can be thrown way back; the distance’s up to to you, a true you, an old friend of David Buckle and deserve of Him, another true friend that some who don’t regard believe in.However, it seems that now’s the time to get your stuff, to have things, done, that need doing, done. and for each: this, stern, if not imperative, suggestion: Be ready; a regretful decision, some of you, to not taking a serious look at life, why you avoid the obvious?
The near future, a thing that is late in coming;don’t think over your past, no use in that; that will only way you down Regret’s a heavy thing. that some lump into David’s hoping a good mind is yours.
True friend, almost sibling, of mine. Look into what’s up with
your own sake, heed, it is totally your own decision: do/do not.
ask Jesus Christ what you should do. I’d be in conversation with
Him.
There is no insight, knowing,on my part,
has yet be known to each of you as to the
seriousness of your response. It’s late in the
game; some of member’s in this personal mind. As for members this note is intended for, to their
own opinion’s, regard, concept, or knowledge, David’s
history was, I think, replete with a possibility, that we did
no memory gymnastics over.
Be ready to go. I care for all, not all kept in touch post trauma… You which have, as few as you are, I hold a special admiration. Hope i’ll be talking to next year. Have a good day, let memory to do it’s stuff for that unvoiced response.

There is so much in me mind; glad to get an actually get an e-mail from you with a few thoughts! HA! no offense intended, I imagine you’ve seen allot, but you do not devulge much; especially to a book you found on the net.
In our lives, there will always be things that are sad. Do not let them bring you down, instead turn them into something beautiful.
There will be times that the sadness will be too great. Perhaps you can use that as a reason to help others. There is no greater loss than to drive the Lord from your heart. All that you lose then is what you willingly threw away and the emptiness can never be filled.
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,
neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth,
nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God
that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Yes, He surprises often. When i feel volunerable, as if there is a test, or a lesson to be learned, i feel said moments are a tiny point where the the trust i have in our Lord shines brightest. Is it wrong to just accept that no matter what occurs that daid event is a reality spurning on activity if trust where whatever is coming, just smile and place the worry at Christ’s feet. I,ve always had the calming notion: ‘What will be will be…’ Acceptance of misfortune and revelling in the idea that regardless what is about to hit my life is woven into the tapestry that is my faithful being; and even when it seems so anticlimactic- that some misfortune is about to hit me; it will not be the end of me. I know that i’m an etwrnal beung who was given a second chance at life. It is all for a distant, or not so distant, it being ‘not for me to say,’ the joy that will be having looked at whatever is happening, or is just about to occur, as a gift given from my Lord and savior. Life is not without it’s acids. But seeing it theough the eyes of Christ comforts and releases me from fear. It must be in the plan. Once again, thank you at sending bright messages to this trusty tool that is a link to share qhat i see, feel, and consider about this nifty life. A life that is for the use of Him, as He sees fit. Am i, are WE, just little gears in a bigger machine, that we will some day understand? Trust is a hard gift to provide; yet along with trust in our Lord the future will be one that ‘m happy to play a part in. Death doesn’t really have a have a grip on me. Not any longer in my life. When it happons it will be His will. And in an effort to help, in a continued life, for His use, it’s just all right with me… Once again: it’s not for me to decide. Check out www efforts as of late: https://collactiona.live this is just doing an activity (blogging) that is filling my time; it is understood that there is no ‘ticket to Heaven,’ except caithn in God’s only son.

I pray his message and audio will bless you today. — Great progress requires great risk. This past season, I learned the concept of a faith leap in a very practical way. I was skiing in a snowstorm in California. Even though the conditions were horrible, I was having fun in my personal happy place. I really love to ski. The sun was going down, and the snow was pounding my face with a frigid, piercing consistency. I debated for a moment if I should squeeze out one last run or head to my car for safety and warmth. I chose one last run; it almost cost me my life. Have you ever made a bad decision that cost you dearly? The ski lift was fast approaching as it had so many times before, but this time the seat was full of ice and I found myself slipping off. The chair attendants watched in horror as I went higher and higher, clinging onto the rail for dear life. Eventually they stopped it; however, I was between 10 and 12 feet off the ground. Have you ever felt completely vulnerable, as if you were hanging by a thread? I didn’t know what to do… Then I heard their advice with complete horror: “JUMP!” I screamed one short response: “WHAT?!” As if to say: “Are you guys completely nuts?” I weighed my options for a split second, then heard their insistent urging: “JUMP! JUMP!!” I stretched my arms as far as I could and jumped. In 2 Corinthians 5:7, the Bible states that we are to “…walk by faith, not by sight.” Obeying God or making changes in your life requires a leap of faith. It is scary, but I’ve learned you can live by faith or live in fear. Choose faith. You’re a miracle! Paul Marc Goulet — Thank you, Paul Marc, for sharing this today!

There’s just this incredible amount of anxiety.” Source: the press is for S T U P I D people on earth – socialism is COMMUNISM in diapers –
Christians should live with an eternal perspective in mind. The temporary things of this earth will pass away, but God’s words will never pass away (Luke 21:33)
“Life is pain, highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.” — William Goldman
The first person that comes to mind is Gary Vaynerchuk,
whose constant social media posting encourages folks to chase happiness instead of money.
Well, sorry to break it to you, but life is pain. If you do not accept this, life is going to break your heart on a daily basis.
The pursuit of happiness? How does that even work? How does one go about it? How long does it last?
Don’t wish for fairytales. Just don’t.
The truth is that you have to make use of your suffering. That you must do your best to choose the battles you want to fight.
Do what is hard every single day, do what is meaningful, and happiness will come as a by-product of your actions.
Envy is the most stupid thing ever
“People always get what they want. But there is a price for everything. Failures are either those who do not know what they want or are not prepared to pay the price asked them. The price varies from individual to individual. Some get things at bargain-sale prices, others only at famine prices. But it is no use grumbling. Whatever price you are asked, you must pay.” – W.H. Auden
There’s a price that one must pay for anything. The price is sometimes time, sometimes energy, sometimes compromising oneself.
If someone has more than you, if someone is better than you at a certain skill, you can rest assured that they are worst than you in other areas.
We get what we are willing to sacrifice for.
People. Teens, 20-Somethings, Adults even; there’s a theory in THIS head that has been RUNNING A RACE that doesn’t seem to our run-of-the-mill-situation: those on this web in the mass media market – media is bullshit on EVERY desktop. there’re tricks that newbies, and even those who THINK they know some stuff concerning this ill WORLD-WIDE-WEB.
Americans as a whole “should be prepared that they are going to have to hunker down; significantly more than we as a country are doing” in order to stop a spread of covid-19, said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of National Institute OF Allergy and Infectious Disease. — Daniel
Where vigilance should be, strictly, j to THERE IS OTHER infections. We should be aware of. PROTECT YOUR PASSWORDS! in fact you may like to change THEM ALL; there is a massive amount of tricks hackers use to get said ‘keys’ ou identity, reputation, bank accounts, important records that you may share with those loved, those that would never do something big enough to ruin you. Be on look out for tricksters that could not care in the least about YOUR own well-being.
One trick is to create the illusion that it is alright to log onto sights by signing into THAT account and ee n they go so far as to require you to use the OTHER websight’s password to access that page that is NOT affiliated WITH the sight you’re logging onto. In so doing you let your passwords take a cruise an, AND ‘through THEIR tubes’ of THEIR MAINFRAME, or something like that and letting any hack full view of YOUR password to a nest of THEIR wires to THEIR BRAIN SUBSTITUTE. be careful…
