The who of man.



Behind this helm of life I stand,
Holding fast, to Stay the course.
Resting in this awesome fact,

Whether seas be calm or rough ,
I WILL GO THROUGH, with no remorse,
to peace in harbors bluff.



Think of rough times as an exercise in,
PERSEVERANCE and CHARACTER.

This is the WHO of man.

James 1,2 to 3.

    

 

 


   

 

 

 

We are all on a journey through the sea of life.
You will bask in the Sun,
in one moment,
and be shattered on the rocks,
the next.
What makes you a man,
is what you do,
when that storm comes.
You must look into the face,
of that storm, and yell,
at the top of your voice.
I know the hand that created you,
and His hand protects me,
so bring it on.
I will go through,
as his hand covers me.
Old Proverb, In this world
you will have tribulations,
but fear not, for He has overcome the world.

Remember, this life is only,
the journey, preparing
for greater things.
Don't look back, with remorse,
wishing you had taken
a better path.
You are wiser and stronger
because of your mistakes.

You are the one who can, truly point to the right path, for those who follow.

YOU ARE ALMOST THERE!
WELL DONE.
GOOD AND FAIHFUL SERVANT.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

Stop to Smell The Roses

I have never claimed to have an original thought, 
but rather a transporter of valuable truth,
hidden deep in the holds of my ship of life 
to share with those in need.

To some they have no value
but to others, they are life indeed.

Deut. 30. 19 : I set before you, life and death. 
 Choose life that you and your seed may live
.

Example:
Happiness and love are in your hands
to choose or reject.
To reject is to choose bitterness.

To Quote the words of a poet:
“Some say, love it’s a river
that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor 
that leaves the soul to bleed.
Some say Love it is a hunger
an endless ache and need.
I say, love it is a flower, 
and you it’s only seed.

It’s the heart, afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It’s the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.

It’s the one who won’t be taken 
that never seems to give.
And the soul afraid of dying, 
that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long,
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter,
far beneath the bitter snow,
lies the seed, 
that with the Son’s love,
in the spring becomes a rose.

 

 

 

Leadership

The gift of your Leadership will be measured
By your capacity to control and lead yourself.
Leadership is a decision of courage,
to take on the responsibility of self discipline;
Then to overlook the shortcomings of others
and lead them by example and patience
with the humble attitude of
remembering that you still have weaknesses also.

Always strive to increase your knowledge,
and to Conquer greater mountains.
Your mistakes and failures will keep you humble,
and cause your life to be a good example
of true leadership.
For a leader is not one who is perfect,
but one who will make enough decisions
or enough mistakes
until he finds the right answer.
Have a dream and help build one for others.
Give them a vision,
because without a vision or a goal,
they will die.
Pursue your vision or goal
with your eye always on the finish line.
Pursue integrity so as to run a straight course,
because the end does not justify the means.
Don't consider the suffering and the pain of this present time,
for it shell all be dwarfed by the glory
that shall be revealed at the end of the race,
and this is then called the beginning.
Integrity, self discipline, ramifications.
i.e.. consider the outcome of your decisions.
This all equals wisdom.
 

 

 


  

 

 

JUST A THOUGHT.

Very few of us are able to pick up a brush and paint a masterpiece for all to admire.
But at the same time we all have elevated ourselves to be critiques or judges.
For instance I like this!
Or, I don't like that!
and yet,
if we found a scrap of paper with Michael Angelo
or Leonardo da Vinci etchings,
we would guard or cherish that scrap of paper because we knew who the artist was that painted it.

How is it? that I find myself doing or elevating myself to criticize or judge others.
After all, who is it that created that person in His own image.
Yes!! I know that person made poor choices and is not so lovely,
BUT WHO AM I TO JUDGE.
Have I not made poor decisions also.
I suppose I could spare a little grace

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

BREATHE IN BREATHE OUT.


At times that's all you can do.

You breathe in all of the good,
the new life,
the richness
of the future ahead.

But to enjoy any of this,
you must breathe out
all of the bitterness the pain,
and even
those cherished things
that you loved but can't hold on to.

Exhale!
let it all go.
Empty yourself of all that past.
Now breathe in
all of the new life of peace.

    

 

 


  

 

 

Trials in life are inevitable.
Don't abhorre the coming tests,
but take joy in passing the test.

For each test is only a rung on the ladder of life,
with each step the Vista, joy, wisdom,
is more majestic.

Liberty with Responsibility


!..

Our constitution!
The First Amendment,
freedom of religion and speech.
What is the backbone of our great country?

#1. LIBERTY! .. with responsibility,

#2. LIFE! which is given to us by our creator not the government.

#3. PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS.

True Happyness ultimately is only found when you deny your selfishness,
and understand the blessing poured out on you by the Creator.

You must have an attitude of gratitude.

NOW, Regarding the statement; ..
"You can't tell them? ..
you must show them."

They must see, and experience it.

The backbone of the USA is the CHURCH, not the financial industry .

So if the church is not HUMBLED, and brought to its knees,
to feel persecution from a tyrannical government, because of the loss, of their freedom of worship,
the Church will willfully fall asleep again, and we will not have freedom, unless we wake up.

Will we continue fighting each other rather than fighting evil?

    

 

Listen Now C. S. Lewis

 

Liberty with Responsibility

 


   

  

 

 

Who are you?

Do you breathe to prove that you live?

I answer no.

Do you live because you breathe?
Answer yes.
Does breathing give you personal value or are you valuable because of your person?

The one who gave you life is the one who gives you value.
Your value is in His eyes, not yours.
It is the trusting in Him
that makes the who of man,
who you are, what you are, the beauty of you, the real person that you are.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

The Stone Rejected.

Psalm 118 verse 22.
The stone which the builders rejected, has become the chief cornerstone.
This stone can refer to the last stone to be placed into an arch, which is called the center stone, or the capstone, on the top of the Pyramid of Cheops.

As Michael Angelo combed through the rubble of an old rock quarry, he came upon one stone, which was tossed to the side, as useless,
because of a great fracture in it.
With great loving care, he carried it to His own home
and began to work on this impossible task, to shape it into the form of David.

In the same way, the son of David,
has searched through
the gutters of this world,
and He has found you and I,
rejected and cast away.

He has made a place in His heart for us.

If we will receive and submit to His love,
He will transform us into his own image.

Jesus is the capstone,
but He has chosen you and I,
to be part of His great building,
if we will submit to His hammer and chisel,
and finally, the sand paper and POLLISH .

This is all for the glory
of His great love for us.

    




 

   

 

Render.



IT IS SAID

Give to Ceaser that which is Ceasers,
to God that which is Gods.

Have we given that which belongs to God
to Ceaser?
In order to get a tax-deduction?

On a coin is the image of the government.
So pay your taxes to the government.

God's image is stamped on your life,
so give to God what belongs to God.

10 years of caring,
but little or no change
And then something changed ,
A small bud 3 days later a blossom,
To only last 24 Hours then gone.
I see life may sometimes be like that,
We are all. In this life for that one moment to glorify God.
We are all part of HIS POEM
AND MAYBE ONLY.

But without that comma, the poem will not make sense.
















    

 

   

 

WHO IS RUNNING THE WORLD?



The nations of the world are governed by,

#1.
Ego driven self elevated persons considering they need to lead their Inferiors .
#2.
These leaders will all at all times have an opposing view who believe they can control better.
#3.
We have the masses,
some will be politically minded
and will vote for self-interest and others will vote for the greater good of the nation.
The majority will be the workers who are disinterested.
All they think of is food, shelter, and pleasure.

In order for the leaders to control the masses,
they must control the narrative.

The left will use fear and disinformation with free bread,
which is received by
THE GREED OF INDOLENCE.

THE RIGHT WILL OFFER LIBERTY WITH RESPONSIBILITIES.

Fear and Disinformation will Circle the world before truth can put its shoes on.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE ???

    

 

 

 

 

Leading by Example?




What you want your children to become is usually
not what you are living.

Solution.
Your life must be a picture ,
(example ) of what you expect them to be.

The crew of a ship
will only arrive
at the port,
where the captain has led the ship.

In other words, parents!
Kids will learn,
and be what YOU live.
Not what you say.


You must Lead by example with joy,
with patience,
with understanding,
and above all endurance.

True authority will allow
the ramifications of life
to correct.
WITHOUT, YOU BEING
A CONTROALER.

The greatest men of God
were ONLY men and women.

JESUS YOUR SAVIOUR,
You Must LEAD BY EXAMPLE,
NOT BY CONTROAL.

Who is your real enemy?

The spirit of Darkness using fear and control.
Those who PROMOTE (MSM).

These are no more than the excrement of the TRUE ENEMY.

The time has come for the land of the Brave, and the free, to pick up your shovels, and move forward, to clean out the swamp,

it will overflow,

How does a conquering Army gain control over the mind of the people?

Destroy their memory.
Get rid of their teachers.
Get rid of their history,
all of their library

Force them to become
politically correct in their speech.

Finally install fear of their neighbors
with the possibility of a loss of the little that they have and then the free handout they are receiving from the government of which they are now totally addicted to.

Thomas Jefferson quotes those who would give up essential Liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither Liberty nor safety.

Thinking for yourself?

Is it easier to regurgitate the accepted philosophy
of your club, party, church
than to do your own research for the truth?

Is it easier for a child to use a calculator
to come up with the right mathematical answer
than to write it down or work it out on paper?

Is it more important to fit in, in order be accepted?

Are we allowing ourselves to be dumbed down to conformity?

What is critical thinking?
Is it to criticize or is it to be analytical?

Shouldn't you strive to understand the agenda
of those that desire to control you?

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Wounds

In dealing with a deep wound it is necessary to expose the wound, clean it, then re-bandage it.
If this is not done,
gangrene will set in,
and finally death.
The same is with the wounds
of the past,
or childhood wounds.
You will never grow to maturity until you deal with the past.
Expose it and let it heal.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Among the pastors
who lead the church today, the greatest thing that is missing is humility. When a pastor stands to teach or lead,
He must first of all stand before his people
as the imperfect and the least,
IE the servant of them all.
To Humble himself to wash their feet,
If you cannot teach from your own failures,
or admit your
struggle with the flesh.
And you only teach the answers
for the test of life,
WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING
you because of Pride OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE
are no more than a damn hypocrite.

Best way to prepare for a teaching.
Three hours of deep study into the subject,
and eight hours of mindless workin the field,
so that you can meditate on the
three hours of study.

YOUR MEDITATION IS SUPERIOR
TO YOUR STUDY.
Study is knowledge which will puff up.
Meditation will bring understanding
which creates humility.

In this crowded, busy, but fog-filled life,
you may feel that you stand alone,
but no!
In that fog is the blanket of His love and peace,
be still and watch-full,
for you are not alone.
You are called to be the Alpha,
a watch-men on the wall.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Sedition

A disgruntled worker who hated his boss
caused a ravenous pestilence
to inflict a few of his sheep.
And in his frantic effort to rid the few sheep
with this deadly pestilence,
he caused an epidemic of fear
in the rest of the many sheep
who in great fear
stampeded over the cliff.
In turn he lost more sheep from the fear
than he did from the virus.
His real intent was to get rid of his boss,
even at the expense of the
loss of the entire herd.
Where we go one we go all.

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

The epitome of hypocrisy.

The Man Who in all his effort to live a holy perfect life,
The question is how to do this?
Become a nun?
how about a monk?
no! maybe I won't like the brothers,
How about Solitude!
except ?
when you're in solitude you come face-to-face with your worst enemy (SELF).

The greatest lesson I finally learned
after 70 years was that my worst enemy to overcome in this life was (SELF)
When WILL YOU finally understand.
that only you and your creator can overcome this great enemy,
The answer is what the Lord said to Paul,
my grace is sufficient for you.
MY GRACE IS SUFFECIENT FOR YOU
Thank you Lord.

YOUR PART IS TO SUBMIT TO HIM
HIS PART IS TO SUPPLY THE GRACE.

That can make the cut.
I.e. TRUST
I demand respect and obedience.
I am patient, I am long suffering,
AS LONG as you GROW in this discipline.

I only look for one thing in order for you to stay in my army.
I'm looking for TRUST
that I have already won and you will be with Me to share with Me this final Victory.
I will not keep the lazy or the coward or the one who causes discord amongst
MY MEN.
DO I HAVE THE RIGHT
to do that?
DAM RIGHT!
I'm only looking for those who have the confidence in the fact that I have already won this battle.
You must be willing to die to have the GURANTEE OF ETERNAL LIFE.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

As The Twig is bent so shall it grow

The Farmer plants a grapevine
but as the twig grows,
by nature it spreads out
along the ground.

It will never bear fruit
unless it is corrected,
sometimes by gentle force.
In this way it will learn discipline,
and grow straight.
In so doing it will bear much fruit.

So is the life of your son.

Father's you are the farmer,
your son's success depends on your care.

Integrity!
In retrospect
Now that you have traveled some,
on this road of life,
when you look back to see the wandering past behind you,
are willing to expose all those errors or imperfections as you contrast them with perfection?

Sometimes God can use a crooked stick to draw a straight line.

ENIGMA___
definition of enigma
a person or a thing that is mysterious puzzling or difficult to understand.
I would like to explain to you what's spoken from the pulpit,
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
WHAT???

How about, The respect of God is the beginning of wisdom.
That s a little better.

I believe the AWE of God !
is the beginning of wisdom.

The definition of AWE,
A feeling of reverential respect with fear
or wonder.
An attitude of humility before God,
Self is totally insignificant.
Pause to think on this.

Very often we are asked how do you FEEL?

or at other times we dwell on our emotions good or bad.

We may meditate on our fears of things to come, in most cases they never manifest.

These thoughts or feelings, or emotions are all superficial,
THY HAVE NO SUBSTANCE

To answer this problem we must take control of all of these thoughts emotions and fears by casting them down and think of what is substantially real with an attitude of thankfulness whatever is good whatever is honest whatever is pure whatever is lovely think on these things

The power and mistique of a woman.

Is that which draws a man to her side,
as a partner,
as an equal,
as the necessity in life.

Man was made to be
the bulldozer,
the truck,
the tractor,

The crystal vase was to be
the music,
the center of all that is precious in the man's life
everything he would work for,
strive to conquer.

Her soft and calm continents is what his delight is to come home to.

Her art in preparing and setting the table
is as sensual to him as the smell
and the beauty of her appearance.

I'm reminded of an old shack,
the sun is rising
and streaming in the window to the floor.
IT IS STILL,
not a breath of air moving.

The old man picked up his pipe
and packed it, then lit it.

The first puff of smoke billowed out
in beautiful curls as the Sun
caught its splendor
floating - twirling - leaving a
delightful saver.
And then!
And then it's gone!

So it is in life.
You're born with the splendor of youth,
you're filled with love, wife, children.

They grow and then they're gone.
Then you slowly fade away.

What did you leave behind?

And what hope did you anchor your life upon?

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

When sailing a ship one must always be checking his compass
to correct his course.
Otherwise he will not arrive at the expected Harbor.
So it is in life When one humbles himself to say I was wrong, please forgive me;
This is more beneficial to oneself than to the one he has hurt.
You see it is self-examination of your character,
and integrity is now restored.
A man is only as good as his word.
What's more even God regards his Word
to be even above his name.

Did you ever think that there will be a day that you MUST PAY for the credit you took upon yourself.



    

 

 


   

  

 

 

You will never truly help or lift the load of another fellow traveler in life, until you feel the weight of his burden on your shoulders.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

THE BIG BANG

From the moment of coitus till now you have been called to the race.

In the beginning there was this exciting orgasmic mad rush
of thousands,
but only one would win

It happens that you were that seed
and were the one to win the rush to life.

And there you were standing on this platform of beginnings,
with the whole world cheering your arrival.

Your thought from that great start was:
Wow it's all about me.

But now you have
the fourth quarter.

You find it is not as glorious as you thought life is.

Its not all about you
you're being knocked around,
misunderstood, ridiculed,
life is not fair.

You tried to run straight and were deceived by the cunning alure
of the beauty of evil and desire,
you tripped,
you fell,
now you want to quit.

But stop, wait!

This race is not about being first!

This race is about standing with courage upon the truth
that has been revealed to you.

Hold fast!--Stay the course!
you will!

FINISH WELL.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

There were two lifeguards
sitting on their great and high pedestals
by the beach.
They both came from two different schools of thought.
Today they had a trainee with them
and he was sitting on a stool below them.

There was a young lady
way out at sea
floundering and drowning crying for help.

The two lifeguards were arguing
as to just how the proper way was
to save this young lady.
While at the same time the young trainee went out and saved her, brought her back. And she was so happy about it.

The two lifeguards decided to chastise the young man because he didn't do a very good job of saving her

My thought is this:
Is this not like our different denominations fighting amongst each other while the world is going to hell in a hand-basket?

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

The bitter sweet joy of overcoming temptation.



Years have passed and the memory!

even pain of that what if;





The beauty of desire,

and lust still linger,

as an echo.



Only because of principle

and circumstance

this meteor of desire

missed it's disastrous goal.



And now you see more clearly,

you can see the cost

or the loss unto others,

retrieved.



Because you did not yield or because someone pushed you out of its way

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

There was a young man infatuated with lighthouses later on in life he was given one to care for.
So he worked diligently every day to clean and paint the outside and a polish all of the glass in this lighthouse.

His favorite place was a beautiful room at the top of the lighthouse.
The view was magnificent what pride he took in all of its beauty

But after working so hard all day he found it difficult to sleep at night ,
with that glaring light
going round and round.

It was so much more peaceful to just turn the light out and enjoy the stars and the moon at night.

But one night there came a mighty storm and he was asleep.

HIS LIGHT WAS OUT

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

ANOTHER THOUGHT

There was a man who suffered great in his desire to bring light into the world.

After much effort he created the light bulb and then he created many more.

He was so pleased with his creation,
and there was a great love affair between him and his creation.

So he gave the light bulbs the Great Commission ---

You are the light of the world,
fill the world with light.

They immediately went out and spread the light over the whole world,
but after a while they would just get together once a week in a very dark room to compete with each other as to who was brighter than the other.

Occasionally a dim bulb would come in.
Or one that was flickering and almost going out.

They would jump on them or condemn them for not being very bright.

They had forgotten the greatest principle, and that is even the smallest spark in a very dark cave can lead the people to salvation.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

WHO is Life?

I once referred to life as a benevolent master who gives to all but rewards only those who seek.

Let's look at life as a loving mother or father who plays peek-a-boo with the new born baby.

Why peekaboo?

For this reason only,
to establish confidence in the child ,
so that even though the parent is not seen
HE is still there watching.

If you seek me with all your heart you will find me always there!!!!

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Death is a faithful servant,
who visits us all!

Then to sort us out in different places
of our own choosing.

One day the ruler of life and death
will relieve death of his duties,

HE then will rule and reign over ALL!
LIFE AND DEATH




    

 

 


   

  

 

 

When I was in the military service
I learned trust or faith
through
INTREPID obedience.

i.e. To do
or fear not to do,

because of a growing
trustful love
through ABIDING ASSOCIATION
with the
drill INSTRUCTOR.
[ LORD ]


    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Freedom

Not everyone is welcome on my ship,

FOR IF I MUST TREAT
EVERYONE THE SAME,
I can't treat someone special.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

We all have come into this world naked and empty handed, grabbing for that what we need.

We leave naked
and empty-handed
of all that which we could grab.

So remember!
that which was so precious!
in life...

Hold onto it loosely
because when it is time to let it go
it will not hurt so bad.

After all you have nothing in this world that was not given to you by
GRACE.
Without air to breathe a heart to beat
you could not have received
ANYTHING.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Do not protect your child from hardship.
For the discomfort is the beef-steak in life
for him to cut his teeth upon.

He can learn from difficulty
but receives nothing from the pacifier.

Challenges are the spices of life,
as the rain storm
brings appreciation
for the Sun and flowers.

You will not crave water till you are walking through the desert.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

There is the man who can father kids.
But he REFUSES
to father his kids.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

We never stop being a parent,
but it would seem,
that to many of us
THAT IS NOT
APPARENT.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

The Lost Horizon

In many cases the media is inundating
us with the cares of this moment,
and so if we accept it we stop the flow
of His mercy and grace
which leads us to hope.


    

 

 


   

  

 

 

How often we see the
union between a man and a woman,
they come together
they may even be by all outward appearances to become one.
But in reality it was only superficial
they produced children
they may even have worked or toiled together.
Did they ever learn to communicate?
Deep too deep,
and in the final parting were they only two ships passing out at sea?

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

A WOMAN
IS LIKE A FIREPLACE

At one time there is a raging fire,
and another time
an even gentle ongoing flame
and then there are those
beautiful coals,
slowly, ,
burning in the hearth.

The secret in the fire
is how you attend to it.

HUSBANDS, HOW ARE YOU
ATTENDING TO YOUR
WIFE?

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

A Picture is
a return ticket
to a Place in Time
Held for ever in Eternity,
but lost forever in the folds of time.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

CHRISTMAS MESSAGE

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

A simplistic sketch of the progressive steps of the natural man without Divine Principle.

1. Born in absolute dependency for food and cleaning.

2. The need to learn to feed themselves and tie their shoes .

3. Having to submit,
obey or else.

4. School 1 and 1 is 2,
work to make ends meet.

5. Learn to use others weaker than yourself to gain more for yourself.

6. Independence of those who taught you and now great pride in your own autonomy.

7 Superiority over those weaker:
HOW to use their ignorance for your benefit in the name of helping them.

8. Abundant wealth.,

9. Control of others.

10. Power corrupts,
absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Example:
Hitler, Stalin, Mao Tse-tung,
today's politicians.
That's for you to judge,
but be careful,
you will be judged accordingly.
Start by looking deep within.

So much for electing those who say I am progressive.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

THE INCONVENIENCE OF THE UNEXPECTED

The beautiful oyster shell
nestled on the ocean floor ,
loving, enjoying
the gentle sea currents,
the exotic colorful coral,
the seaweed caressing her sides,
the excited
orgasmic enjoyment of life,
until one stray seed in .
A PIECE OF SAND!
A real irritant
What a disruption
and inconvenience!
but worst of all
those virtues
and principles of life
getting in the way.
What can I do?

When the oyster
receives a grain of sand in her shell it's painful to her,
its an inconvenience to her,
so she broods over
it she works with it
and accepts it,
and over a period of time
it becomes a beautiful pearl.

So it is with the unexpected conception of a child.

Life happens while you are making selfish decisions

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

FREEDOM OF CHOICE

Our time on this earth is a bus stop, not a homestead.
So let's think outside the box.
Freedom has nothing to do with the opposite, which is slavery.
It has to do with free will which comes with baggage

The baggage is:
you are ultimately responsible for your decisions.
We are all taught by others,
but we are responsible for what we decide to believe,
and will account for our decisions as to what we believe and what we chose to do with it.
It would be important to get a good lawyer to speak for you on the day of accounting.
1st John 2,1

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

MEASUREMENTS

Why is it that we measure how high we are by comparing ourselves with those around us?

How high you are is relative to the truth that you submit to,
Whether it is God's truth or the cares of this world.

Are you in a flower garden
or the city dump?

As a child we would play
king of the castle,
which happened to be
the local horse manure pile
because it was the only mountain around to play on.

That is what I mean by measuring
your self by those who are around you.

Daniel ch 4: 17

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

THE APPLE WITH A WORM

The worm hole in the Apple:
is it there for the worm to get in
or for the worm to get out?

If it is there to get out,
how did he get in?

So it is in life,
we are all born with
that seed of sin within.

The conservative farmer would not throw the Apple away,
he would give it to his wife,
she would cut the worm out and make apple pie.

Even though you may have imperfections in your life,
God is patient, He will cut the imperfection out and make something beautiful out of
YOUR LIFE

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Times do not change

There was a time that all people spoke the same language.

So they rose up to defy the creator of the world so that there would never ever be another flood ,
they built the Tower of Babel.

Their languages we're all confused and so they were scattered over the whole world.

Today after four thousand years we can all speak the same language once again by the computer ,
do you think that we are ready to finally make war on this God that we think is stopping us from all the fun that we should be able to have.
So far we are allowing our government to get rid of all traces of this celestial kill joy.
Times do not change.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

The epitome of arrogance

Life becomes difficult,
only because of others.

You see, if all people understood
the way I do,
or could see as clear as I do,
then none of us would get offended at each other.
WHAT A CONCEPT!!!
We would all get along
very well.

You see.
I get offended at others because they cannot see that all I am doing was for their best interest.

It was also advantageous for me.

I realize I understand better than others, so I being wiser should be patient with those who are
IGNORANT.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

BREATHE IN BREATHE OUT
BREATHE IN BREATHE OUT


At times that's all you can do.

You breathe in all of the good,
the new life,
the richness
of the future ahead.

But to enjoy any of this,
you must breathe out
all of the bitterness the pain,
and even
those cherished things
that you loved but can't hold on to.

Exhale!
let it all go.
Empty yourself of all that past.
Now breathe in
all of the new life of peace.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

WHY IS COMMUNICATION
SO DIFFICULT?

HOW a person responds
to ME,
Usually has nothing to do...
WITH ME.

Until I respond in like manner with something that has nothing to do...
WITH HIM!

These are two people coming from two different circumstances in life;
now trying to relate
from two totally different directions,
leading to total confusion and anger.

So when dealing with
difficult problems
try to find neutral territory;

PREFERABLY
over a cup of tea.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Oximoron

While espousing clarity of thought,
a large part of advertisements
are IRONIC
Example
Planned parenthood
The woman uses birth control pills,
the man gets FIXED i.e. visectamy,
the baby gets aborted
and is used for body parts.
sounds like a junkyard.
THIS IS THE EPITOME
OF IRONY.

FREE public education
No Child Left Behind.
It's a shame to let a good mind
go to waste.

Now the student comes out of college
without the ability
to nail two boards together.
53% of them are jobless,
and in great deal of debt to the government.

DEATH WITH DIGNITY
What would that look like,
A 45 to the head?
Too messy, and I don't like loud noises
you could also get hurt doing that.

How about a drive through mortuary
with tax deduction for your car,
a tax deduction for your body parts
and your ashes
are mailed to your children
as fertilizer for the garden.

This is what you call
THINKING GREEN

Climate control and overpopulation

All of Canada the United States and Europe are not producing babies and they are killing the ones they do not want to the point of national extermination

So if the productive of Nations become extinct who will feed the non-productive welfare recipients of the world?

Climate control

If government decides
they can control climate
this will give government
total control over people
and no control over climate.
The people will be fed by the government.
Freedom with responsibility
will be no more.
We will all become serfs or slaves
of the government,
for the government to abort or eliminate as needed.

A quote from President elect Bernie Sanders,
"Isis is caused by climate change.
Is that to say, if we could change the climates then the wild Isis gangs will stop cutting off heads and raping ten-year-old boys and girls?"

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

A QUOTE FROM
THE BIG BO
SEVEN YEARS AGO

We are five days from fundamentally transforming America.

How would you go about fundamentally transforming a barrel of Good Apples?

Number 1
put three layers of good apples on the bottom of the barrel.

Number 2,
place two rotten apples in the middle.

Number 3,
fill the barrel with Good Apples.

Number 4.
Put the lid on the top of the barrel.

Now you have climate control

Walla! Fundamentally transformed.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Can you tell the depth of a person's understanding and commitment to God,
in other words spirituality,
by his politics?

Damn right!


The extreme-right
Will be self-righteous controlling idiots.


The extreme left
Will be tyrannical dictators trying to please all for his OWN BENEFIT.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

The Blacksmith

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Two old religious words that we do not understand.

Saint and Holy:
These two words come from one Greek word Hagios which means set apart.

That's easier to understand.

Now lets look at the word righteous;
Another confusing religious word.

If God has set you apart, are you His?
If you are His, then in His eyes
you are without blame
you are righteous!
Eph. 1:1-4

You will answer, but not in my eyes!
Are you greater than God?
Do you see better than God?

How stupid can one man get!

It is your damnable pride and your own self-righteousness that refuses to see yourself Through The Eyes Of God.

So humble yourself in Thanksgiving for his grace and mercy.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Why The Now?

No Crystal Cathedral!
No Church with a Steeple!
BUT ON A SEA OF GLASS
The Sun stoops low
to passionately caress his beloved horizon,
Her body trembles with adoration,
receiving his kiss with a blush of fire
in her cheeks.

I STOP to realize, but WHY?
I am indeed this Temple of God,
Crafted by His own hands,
for this very moment was made for me!
For Him to show His love
and acceptance of my being.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

The Clock of life is wound but once
And no man has the power



To know just when the hands will stop,
At late or early hour.

To lose one's wealth is sad indeed,
To lose one's health is more.
To lose one's soul is such a loss
That no man can restore.

The present only is our own.
Live, love, toil with a will.
Place no faith in 'tomorrow'
For the clock may then be still.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

ode to the sailor

4S.D. Ode to the sailor
Although I call and hear no answer
I seek your Face,
and
In the stars I see your smiling eyes
of assurance,
I'm reminded of your thoughts
for me

They are thoughts for good,
and not for evil,
so that I may have an expected hope.

Jer. 29:11

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Your Life lived!


If you could go back to change those things,
that you are not proud of,
would you?
If you could,
and did change those things.
Would you be the man,
of leadership and commitment
that you are today?
In many cases,
it is your mistakes of the past,
that has made you
the strong man of today.
Sometimes God uses a Crooked Stick
to draw a straight line.
Don't hide your past mistakes,
be a father,
ie. be a patriarch,
be a leader.

The rewards in life
are not compiled by
the things you did right,
but by how you dealt with
the things you did wrong.

What is life?
Life is a benevolent master giving to all equally.

But rewarding only those who fight to know the truth.

So let's look at that statement so often taken out of context.
All men are created equal.
All men are not equal,
they are (created) equal.

The statement says all men are created,
but it's what you did,
with that created life that was given to you.

Should you receive a trophy,???
if all you did was show up to the starting line??
You must run the race!

The reward is not to those who run the fastest,
But to all who stay the course and persevere in the face of fear,to the end.

Don't compete with your neighbor,
Compete with yourself,
that will be hard enough as it is.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

If you know the truth

Why do you insist on proving to others that you are right.
when you know that you are.

Don't curse the darkness.
Light a candle,

No amount of darkness can overcome
the light of one candle.

Your job is to shut your mouth
and BE that shining light.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

Words____

How powerful are words?
Do words change the atmosphere?
Are words physical?
Father comes into the family spouting angry vile curses.
Did he actually change the atmosphere of his happy family,
Is he about to put his ship on the rocks?
Yes, with all the neighbors watching.

Can problems in your life become your saving grace?


Old Norwegian fisherman and his son went out to sea.
Picking their way through the jagged rocks and surf, they into calm sea.
As the day passed a sudden squall came up, the sky became black,
they must hurry back to shore.
Something was wrong,
the light house was black.
How to find the shore?
They were doomed to wreck
on the rocks.
Meanwhile at home
his wife was preparing supper.
As they sailed in the direction
of what they thought was the shore,
there was a small flickering light,
and then it grew greater.
Thank God it gave enough light
to see the deadly rocks.
As they came into the shore
his wife ran down to them crying.
We just lost our house in the fire.

The old man was not disturbed,
she wondered why.
He said the light from the burning house was the only thing that saved Jon and me from loosing our life on the rocks .

In the problems of life, always look for
the silver lining of the black clouds.
Live with an attitude of gratitude.

A true Christmas Message.

How is it the greatest wisdom of life is revealed to a Child,
so that they can lead the prideful arrogant Mind.

Isaiah 11 /6

An orphanage in Russia 1991

Totally lacking of moral or religious training,
the children heard for the very first time ,
the story of the baby Jesus born in a manger
because there was no room in the inn .

The children were asked to build a manger
with the baby Jesus in it,
with scraps of paper and rags that they could find.

6 year old Yusuf made his manger
with two babies in it.

When asked why two babies.

He said,
When I saw the baby Jesus cold in the manger
I said, I have no gift to give you because I am poor
with no home or place to stay,
may I lie down beside you to help keep you warm.

The baby Jesus said,
yes you may lay down beside me
and you may stay with me always,
that will keep me warm.

Except as you become as a little child!!

Jesus came to lay down His life for us.
We must lay our lives down with Him

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

When you aspire to become
the flag on the end of a pole
for everyone to follow,
are you willing to be
something on the end of a stick
that supports
the most common purposes of life.

What is more important for the garden, the water or the hose?

The gardener sleeps in his house with his hose in the shed.
Both are useless
unless they are out in the dirt.

Those who would be
teachers or leaders
with a message'
should get out of their comfort zone,
to deliver the water i.e. the message
to the people, i.e. the garden.

    

 

 


   

  

 

 

If you have been commanded
to deliver a message to the employees,
at what point of this delivery
does the message
become yours to copyright.
You preachers,
building your own empire,
remember you are
nothing but a water hose,
in other words a messenger,
hired to deliver a message.
Get rid of your ego,
and the supreme titles,
and go back to delivering
the un-contaminated living message.

Not to interpret it
according to your opinion.
This is what the Supreme-court judges are doing with the Constitution.
