How beautiful to have the innocence of a child, not knowing or caring about the Ways of the World and the many burdens that men bring upon themselves and others!
Perhaps the innocence we all once knew is what can be restored to any soul that accepts and believes in Jesus Christ. He will sort all of this out at the appointed time, but now is the time for we who are fallen and still here on earth; to show and prove our faith in Him!
Amen.

Welcome to Totalitarianism
Starting to look a lot like Commie China isn’t it! And Biden being such a big buddy to the Commies for decades with all those back door deals and scams while both Democrats and Republicans have allowed China to rip off intellectual properties and now reverse engineer all the billions of dollars of military hardware Biden dumped into the laps of the Taliban; what do you think is the hidden Agenda now? Are you starting to feel like a fool and realize we’ve all been had by all of our elected scums who weren’t working for any of us; but they were taking care of business, as in helping themselves and joining forces with the “powers that be” in other nations like China, the EU and Russia!
This is not America anymore, that our Founding Fathers established under God, and no way is it a Democratic Republic as it once was not too many decades ago; it’s all bought and paid for by the highest bidders and we “American Patriot Citizens” are left high and dry holding the bag, and what’s in that bag you may ask; Shit! We’ve been sold-out, as they have stuck it to us with smoke and mirrors for decades, but now that the “cat is out of the bag,” they are doing their criminal arts and giving us the shaft right out in the open! Why else do you think the new Phonies on the Block or “Bench;” Amy Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh just gave the green light to the Left and Evil Commie Democrat Party to crush Religious Freedom, especially Christians in America with their recent vote!
You live in an Oligarchy kind of world and nation now, that is quickly being converted to “Orwell’s 1984 Big Brother” is watching you and will kill you if you do not comply to every one of the ruling classes whims! Punks like Pelosi’s nephew the infamous slime Gov. of “Califonication” Newsom!

Down Under in Aussie Land when they raided this doctor’s office they said!
“The officials did not have a warrant and told the doctor “there is no such thing as patient confidentiality under the news laws.” Whose Laws? UN-Legislated!!!
Really now you Nazi Meatheads!!! What happened to Human Rights and Privacy as to deciding what is best for your own body and health! Oh that argument only held water with the Leftist Democrat Commie Party and when it comes to people like punk Alyssa Milano screaming a woman has the right to choose; so killing innocent helpless human beings full term day of delivery is no big deal!!! But not having your Vax Card or proof of having had all the shots for a cold virus that is now being Mandated; this is a crime of the century!!!
And really what about here at Ground Zero USA where we Americans live; at least for the moment!
“Don’t think that can happen in America? Think again, Biden OSHA vaccine rule allows the government agency access to employees’ private medical records.”
OSHA can “examine and copy each employee’s COVID-19 vaccine documentation” OSHA says it does not need “employee permission” to access “employee medical records.” NAZIS!!!
As I’ve said before too little too late while all the devils were setting us all up for a Big Fall, the people were too busy arguing about PC or Bullies in the schools and online about all manner of stupid concerns, or how America had slaves; so we’re all a bunch of racists unless we make things right!
It’s called Brain Washing, diversionary tactics, and that is exactly what our government and MSM have been doing to us all; prepping us for the “Big Screw Job” that is coming up in short order! Biden you come and get me; I stand by Jesus Christ at His cross! I’m going to heaven and you know where you will spend eternity; with all evil!!! The End!!!

More Alarming Language Found In Biden’s OSHA Rule
By Alex Miller -November 10, 2021
A Doctor in Melbourne Australia was shocked when officials from the health department showed up at his practice after he allegedly refused to turn over private patient health information.
“I have just been invaded by seven authorised officers from the Department of Health and they have seized my confidential patient files and my appointment book and various other documents. They say they are going to give me an itemised list of what they’ve taken. And there was quite an intimidating experience. I think they’ve gone now…” said Dr Mark Hobart. “They just came here to seize files […] they all just came in and started walking around.”
“Authorised Officers” are consider a person who has been appointed by a government department or agency to perform certain compliance and enforcement duties.
The officials did not have a warrant and told the doctor “there is no such thing as patient confidentiality under the news laws.”
The Victorian Government then banned patients from entering his practice because he refused to surrender private patient files to the government without a warrant.
“I don’t feel comfortable with giving out people’s medical information,” replied Dr Hobart.
Hobart was also issued with a cease and desist order barring him from treating his patients face to face.
One of the authorised officers interrogated the desk clerk demanding to know if she was fully vaccinated and despite replying she was he demanded proof.
“The doctor has to supply that to me. He [Mark Hobart] has to supply proof that you’re double-vaxxed or you’ve got an exemption,” said the authorised officer.
Don’t think that can happen in America? Think again, Biden OSHA vaccine rule allows the government agency access to employees private medical records.
OSHA can “examine and copy each employee’s COVID-19 vaccine documentation” OSHA says it does not need “employee permission” to access “employee medical records.”

More serious issues w/ the OSHA COVID-19 vaccine mandate – OSHA can “examine and copy each employee’s COVID-19 vaccine documentation” OSHA says it does not need “employee permission” to access “employee medical records” This mandate covers 84 million+ Americans…

Warped and tainted minds see only what they want to see no matter what the attire or occasion! Disrespect begets more Disrespect! Anyone with their mind on Jesus and following Him does not think in such ways! A word to the wise is Sufficient!
WAKE UP!
“Mistakes happen. Things happen,” Milano continued. She then seemed to imply that she had nothing to feel guilty about with regard to her abortions, but rather those feelings were a result of patriarchal cultural beliefs.”
“Milano, who was raised Catholic, did describe how she felt haunted by her previous abortions, at one point feeling that they were the cause of her miscarriage.”
This is no Catholic! A Biden Catholic = $469 Billion! To Kill the Unborn!
“I definitely had this moment of, ‘Well, I’m being punished, basically, for abortions in my twenties.’ And it took me — I didn’t realize that at the time — it took a while in therapy that that was something I was putting on myself,”
She was punished? What about the innocent helpless babies you murdered; that were torn apart as they slumber? You don’t know what punishment and suffering is; but you will!
“But then there was a lot that I wanted to do before I had children. And the point was that I was given a choice to control my life and control my own destiny.”
What a disgusting human train wreck; not a shred of true remorse for the unborn lives that she initiated and then destroyed; and all she is saying “is it was about me and what I want and when I want” but she sure wanted all the irresponsible sex didn’t she; that’s a given with the unrighteous!!! Totally irresponsible, self-centered and disrespecting the precious God Given Miracle of Life, God and even her own life! And that is not a person with no clue about what she is doing; she did it willingly and all to satisfy her own sinful thinking or desires!!!
No repentance in this woman, so therefore Jesus Christ will say to her!
“26Then you will say, ‘We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.’ 27And he will answer, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you evildoers.’ 28There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are thrown out.” Luke 13: 26, 27, 28
“I was given a choice to control my life and control my own destiny.”
She speaks for death and Satan; as she gave up her life with those innocent unborn human beings out of defiance and sin; True transgression against God and His plan for any of us who follow Jesus Christ; that is what Destiny is all about, not what we foolish broken fallible tempted by the Devil human beings decide what is our Destiny!
This woman I’ve said for years is an abomination promoting horrible sin to other women! She has been a Poster Child for #MeToo, and yet can be this arrogant about her own heinous sin and the murder of Unborn Human Beings! Hypocrite!!!
She is a fixture of the radical Left Hollywood scene, and I was out there and blew it all off because I saw all of its trappings, and sin; for far too many lead that style of life who partakes of fame and easy money, and the accompanying decadent sin! I saw the demonic out there; and I dare say she may be speaking with demons!
Unless she fully repents and admits all of her heinous abominable sin before God and the world she is doomed to everlasting punishment! She is marking God Almighty! God bless all of the unborn!
Actress and pro-choice advocate Alyssa Milano was recently a guest on People’s “Me Becoming Mom” podcast with Zoë Ruderman, where she shared about her experiences with abortion, miscarriages, pregnancy and motherhood.
During the interview, Milano said that, at one time, she felt her miscarriages were “punishment” for the abortions she had when she was in her 20s.
Ruderman began the interview by asking whether Milano always wanted to be a mother, to which Milano replied in the affirmative. However, Milano expressed that she wanted to wait to have a baby until she was in a relationship with the right man. After she married her current husband in 2009, Milano felt that the time had come.
“We started trying pretty immediately, because I got married when I was 36,” Milano said. “I got pregnant…
Dr. Anthony Hinton, a consultant surgeon with 30 years of experience working for the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS), has warned that Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccine”-related myocarditis has a 20 percent fatality rate in children after two years, and a 50 percent fatality rate in five years.
In a tweet, Hinton explained that viral myocarditis is “not mild,” adding that “[i]t’s dead heart muscle.” To even suggest that myocarditis is in any way mild is akin to saying that a person is “a little bit pregnant,” added Scottish television presenter and author Neil Oliver.
Look I’m actually a kind and generous man with a huge heart and some accessible heartstrings that some people have pulled on and taken advantage of over the years trying to manipulate me or get something from me and typically just to get me to accept their wayward ways; to think as they do about these things. But it’s my responsibility to watch out for my own good and learn from my mistakes or continue to resist perversion and sin of any kind, including these sexual one’s, just as they should! That applies to everyone because Holy Scriptures say “Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.” Leviticus 18:22
Even sexual relations outside marriage is wrong in God’s eyes, a perversion of what He created or intended this very intimate interaction between a man and a woman for; which is supposed to be a completely loving commitment to each other and a personal beautiful intimacy a complete mental, physical and spiritual expression of the great bond of love between the couple; that is all about unselfishness and only giving of self out of pure love; to the one you love so deeply in your heart, mind and soul. The Bible bluntly says, “Flee from sexual immorality” (1 Corinthians 6:18)
But we do live in a twisted culture where people find all kinds of excuses to become selfish and seek sexual gratification as a means to and end by itself, and then it just becomes all about lust and pleasure, the taking or using and abusing of another person to get that pleasure or fix; like a drug! The Devil knows all of this so he has many of us captivated by what has become in a sense this weapon, that he has used against us since the beginning, and now with all of these advanced technologies pornography is a billions of dollars a year business all about “exploitation and lustful pleasure!” Thus we have a very twisted society and sex sells, even in the imagery used in TV adds or elsewhere using human sensuality and sexuality as a tool to make money and get people’s attention to buy this or that!
If all people could resist this temptation and be virtuous and caring to one another and not allow themselves to partake of these sexual sins we would have a much healthier world on many levels. But to this point of homosexuality, I see how it’s at the bottom end of a culmination of wayward deviant, twisted, lustful desire and wanting only gratification; “not caring how bad or wrong it looks to God” and that is “an abomination to Him!” This attitude and behavior cheapens and demeans the value of human lives and places these persons at some denigrated, ruined lowly place of being less than the wild beasts, making a direct insult and mockery of and against God Himself; our Father in heaven. This is why it’s an abomination and a “major transgression against our Creator.”
Actions have consequences and my hope and prayer would be and is that more if not all people who are lost in this rebellious sinful behavior would awaken to the Truth and stop; so they can be in the good graces of God and allow their souls to be saved! Amen.
A federal judge has ruled that for-profit businesses when they operate on sincerely held religious beliefs are protected from liability for claims of discrimination by those who choose the LGBT lifestyles.
The company that filed the action, Braidwood, “has established Title VII places a substantial burden on its religious exercise, and defendants fail to meet the burden to show a compelling interest,” wrote the judge. “But even if their broad formulation of their interest in ‘preventing all forms of discrimination’ were sufficient, defendants have not selected the least restrictive means.
“Forcing a religious employer to hire, retain, and accommodate employees who conduct themselves contrary to the employer’s views regarding homosexuality and gender identity is not the least restrictive means of promoting that interest, especially when defendants are willing to make exceptions to Title VII…
Yes Dawn a beautiful reminder of so much good back in those fine days of genuine family tradition, full of love and beautiful standards! Sad to see what has happened to this nation especially the nasty displays of arrogance and disrespect for just about anything good in recent years that has the name American associated with it, all triggered by the most nefarious enemies among us!
But, the good thing is Truth never dies and will always prevail like Justice; as the light overcomes all darkness or despair! The power of prayer and hope are what this is all about, just like those original Pilgrims proved back in 1620 when they crossed an ocean in wooden ships putting everything on the line to find peace, freedom and to build a “Home Sweet Home!” Home is where the heart is, and that is what you and anyone thinking about this right now should focus on for this coming Thanksgiving, letting all the good flow from within pouring out from the heart to all those we love and care about, while even extending some of it to those who are having it very tough and even alone! We can begin with prayers and then genuinely put our best foot forward like those brave and good heartened Pilgrims did way back in the day!
We can be the “New Pilgrims Now!” It’s about overcoming all the odds that can at times be stacked up against us! We’re from “the best of the best” and not quitters; “We Shall Overcome!”
God bless you and yours, and a Special blessed Thanksgiving! Amen.
Brother in Christ Jesus,

How to make chicken or turkey bone soup
“Never discard the bones of turkey or chicken as they always will make a delicious soup. Scrape the meat from the bones, break the bones, pack in a kettle, and cover with cold water, adding a small onion. Cover closely and simmer very gently for three hours. Strain and cool. One-half hour before it is to be served, return to the fire, and for every quart of stock, add one cup of the cold meat, season, and keep hot till needed. This soup may be greatly improved by adding to it, three minutes before serving, ten oysters to each quart of soup.”
Chestnut Stuffing
1 quart chestnuts
1/4 cup bread crumbs
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons cream
Salt and Pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion juice
Shell and blanche chestnuts and cook in boiling water until tender. While hot, rub through coarse sieve. Mix with remaining ingredients. Makes 2-1/2 cups.
~
FormalTable Settings and Service
Housewives of the 1950s set their holiday dinner tables with their finest china, bearing the most exquisite designs. If the dinner was served in courses, a different design might be used with each course. All the dishes used in one course would match.
Place Plate – 10-11 inches across. This was the base plate on which the dinner plate was set.
Dinner Plate – 10-10.5 inches across, used to serve the meat and side vegetables.
Entree Plate – 8.5-9.5 inches across, used to serve an entree, salad, or fish. May have been used for dessert if the fingerbowl was brought in on it.
Dessert Plate – 7.5-8 inches across, used for dessert or salad. Used for the cake plate at tea.
Bread and Butter Plate – 6-6.5 inches across.
Soup Plate – 8-8.5 inches across with a broad, flat rim. Or a bowl could substitute.
Cups and Bowls
Cream Soup Cup – A low, broad cup with two handles, 4.5-5 inches wide and about 2 inches deep. Used for purees, bisques, and cream soups.
Boullion Cup – Looked like a tea cup with two handles that was used for clear soups, consommes, and bouillons.
Chilled Cocktail Bowl – A low, broad bowl inside a separate container. The bowl would be used to serve grapefruit, shrimp cocktail, and other chilled foods. Crushed ice would be packed around the bowl.
Glass
Colored glassware was very popular in the 1950s and would have matched the colors in the china dishes. Crystal glassware was preferred for formal dinners, either etched, cut, or rimmed with gold.
Goblet – The main component of the glassware setting. Two other glasses would have been set alongside the main goblet, usually a claret glass and a champagne glass.
Sherbet Glass – A medium sized bowl on a short stem used to serve sherbet, ice cream, and other frozen dessert.
Finger Bowl – a low, broad bowl used to dip the fingers in water.
Silver
Polished silver gave an air of sophistication to the table setting. Besides the usual dinner knife, fork, and spoon, the 1950s hostess might have provided an array of cutlery including a butter knife and smaller knives and forks for fish, entrees, salad, and fruit.
A List of Useful Serving Pieces
2 or 3 tablespoons
2 or 3 dinner forks for serving
Medium sized carving set
Butter knife or butter pick
Gravy ladle
Sugar tongs
Pie or tart server
Cold meat fork
Olive spoon or fork
Berry spoon
Jelly server
Preserve spoon
Long-handled fork and spoon
Pickle fork
Pierced server
Salad dressing ladle
Lemon fork
Asparagus server
Entree server
Cake fork
sardine server
Ice tongs
Ice spoon
Sugar spoon
Sugar sifter for powdered sugar
Ice-cream knife or server
Cheese server
Melon knife
Grape scissors
Linen
The 1950s hostess preferred white linen damask for a table cover at dinner. The napkins always matched the tablecloth. Monogramming was very popular in the 1950s.
Centerpieces and Decorations
Flowers were popular centerpieces in the 1950s. The colors had to blend in with the rest of the color scheme. Candles were usually white or natural wax color. The candles were lighted before the guests entered the dining-room and were kept burning until after they left the room.
From The American Woman’s Cook Book, 1950
~
Sounds like a lot of work! A lot of serving to do, and a lot of dishes to wash! But the 1950s housewife took pride in setting a well-appointed table. She derived satisfaction from pleasing her guests. Of course, we all know that that does not always work with family.
Most importantly, however, Thanksgiving is and was a time to spend with family and friends and to be thankful for what we have. Washing dishes is a small price to pay.
Thanksgiving Prayer
Lord, source and giver of all things, we give You thanks and all the glory on this Thanksgiving Day for the splendor and majesty of creation. We give You thanks for the blessings of family and friends: both those gathered around this table and those who are present only in our hearts. We give You thanks for this food, prepared by loving hands, and for the graces You provide to nourish our spirits, souls, and bodies so that we may continue to serve You passionately. Help us to be faithful stewards of all we have been given. May we reflect Your love and that which we have received to all those we meet, especially the less fortunate in our midst. Amen.
Practice Gratitude – Conversation Starters for Around the Table
Name two things you are thankful for this year.
Who are you thankful for, and why?
What part of nature is inspiring and beautiful to you?
What is something that makes you laugh out loud?
What is an unexpected blessing you’ve received this year?
Choose someone you are with and share three things you admire and appreciate about that person.
What is something you love about your family?
How are you going to practice gratitude this year?
Have aSafe, Happy, and Blessed Thanksgivingthis year!

“this if you will, wake up and smell the coffee moment happens; our epiphany”
Another unmistakable and profound message came to me from our Lord Jesus!
Last evening about the same time I was tired but determined to send out a message to a reply I received late yesterday afternoon to my previous comment I made the day before yesterday! Now if you like jigsaw puzzles as much as I do you will understand how good a feeling it is to see pieces to an evolving puzzle seemingly falling into place!
I believe without a doubt God is making His will known and leading the way here in what to me is as I call it connecting the dots in converging converging conversations and interacting events; and to me there is nothing I love seeing happen more because this is what the Lord’s Prayer states succinctly being most imperative; Thy Will be done on earth as it is in heaven! What’s more I’m so truly humbled and sorry at the same time because I’m nobody yet God allows and actually intervenes this way in my life and I just say Lord, I’m not worthy but I know you’ve shown such amazing grace and love to me that my heart is wanting to burst with sorrow and shame before you for not being the best person because I tell myself even though I’ve never been truly bad or evil I hate that I screwed up or not done better for you; and just been a fallen human being which I know you understand it all far better than I can fathom, the length and breath of it all the enormous gravity of failure that hangs over mankind and yet they produce so much more of it, far worse in many cases than all past transgressions and most frown or walk around with heads held high.
But just like this Scripture tells us; “9What then? Are we any better? Not at all. For we have already made the charge that Jews and Greeks alike are all under sin. 10As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one. 11There is no one who understands, no one who seeks God.” Romans 3:10
This verse is so absolutely true but yet I know you haven’t given up on us all and I have learned and witnessed what Amazing Grace you are Lord!
“Amazing grace! howsweetthesound, That saved a wretch; like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. 2. ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear. The hour I first believed!”
I have believed since a boy but did I really know what it was like to truly believe and know what that is like; no I only learned over time and through trials and tribulations, some serious suffering which was a blessing making sure I carried my cross as I must!
Now to clarify this more for all to understand for the sake of all, I’ve always been a good guy in most cases better than many and always wanting to protect and watch after others; I was brought up the right way and I was blessed with a good sensitive heart that many who loved me when growing up nurtured that good in me and then I quite naturally in turn did the same for others around me! But regardless sin gets us all one way or another and all fall short of the glory of God!
Now what I’m saying here should coalesce easily when I provide these couple of pieces to a puzzle or picture that God through the Holy Spirit has Divinely influenced as I and others have our hearts open to Jesus and allow the will of the Father to permeate our souls; then Jesus leads the way making it a smooth transition or at least something that we can handle.
First this text that came to me will fit very well with what I wrote last evening as you will see. These following quoted words I provide were not solicited by me at all but came to my email inbox at about the same time of evening as when I began writing last night.
“Then there are the non-believers, many of them good people. They use human intellect to put forth all the reasons why God does not Exist. Yet they, including many of their Christian counterparts who are lukewarm in their faith – will run to Me first. Their hearts will be unlocked and because they will only see what witness I bring to bear, they will know that I Call them. They won’t resist Me, unlike those stubborn souls who think they know more about the promise I made to return to present the Final Covenant, than Me.
Every task I give you, will lead to more and more nations taking up My Cross to create the one pathway towards Me. Never hesitate to walk alongside Me when I Call you, because when you respond to Me, you will destroy the power of evil. Evil may cause you pain, but when you allow Me to guide you, you can overcome any obstacle in your way.
I love you and I guide you, just as I protect My Prayer Groups around the world.
Now to what I wrote last evening that corresponds beautifully and I hope it all touches you or inspires as it has me to turn more so to our Lord for all of our needs and guidance in these extremely dangerous and troubled times and worse to come!
First of all I have to say WOW! I’m telling you this is some beautiful writing and to the heart and soul of what is going on in this world or what it’s all about and why we are here; really! You’re so right how so many people don’t connect to this or get it; as you mentioned when we are just teens or some people even into middle age and beyond, they keep fighting the Truth that is really deep inside and nothing in this world will bridge the gap or fill the void necessary to give that sense of completeness and joy which isn’t a material tangible thing as it transcends time and space but it must and does exist most assuredly; as we think our lives here in this limited material plane is the what we are an all we can be, when it’s not even scratching the surface of what exists beyond our comprehension and indeed our limited cognitive perceptions! This is where Jesus Christ can surely come in to make sure we see more than this surface value of life here, and know that He is real and absolutely wants to share all He has to offer with us out of His infinite love, and to totally fulfill us; filling us with His love and glory in a complete existence that is something that we don’t have the ability to fathom now which is why Trusting Him becomes so imperative. Because He has told us that He wants us to walk with him and follow for a while carrying our crosses in a difficult circumstance, but, He has promised us that staying on our path doing the Father’s will is the only way to live, and to everlasting life in His kingdom!
We can see how very short our time here really is comparatively speaking in the cosmic sense of space time, our being part of the universe and its vastness, yet each of us is barely a blip on the radar, just small flickering flames like candles in the breeze not much hope it would seem to really matter to the universe, and like the old saying, “here today gone tomorrow,” is really how it measures up to be a human being in a place that in terms of the entire known universe is about 13 Billion years old and the earth around 4.5 Billion. Depending on what school of thought and hard evidence we consider many scientists figure a forerunner of we humans was beginning life on earth about 6 Millions years ago and advanced to the more human form that we actually consider to be us more classically around 300,000 years ago, to be followed by actual Homo sapiens who were the actual ancestors that began civilization only about 6000 years ago!
Now I’m a bit tired at the moment and I know I brought this up for good reason which off the top of my head I want to say that the mystery and absolute awe of existence is profoundly captivating to me but when I place myself and my mere life into this perspective I have to admit if I have my wits about me, what can I actually amount to or what significance can I really have in the big picture or a universe and billions of people! Not much as I see it and you rightly mentioned how when we are very young we are so full of exuberance and dreams of making an impact or really becoming somebody so that others and maybe the whole world will say wow, you really did something with your life and you’re a kind of important person! Now I have to laugh and say I felt that and know so differently now how that doesn’t mean anything it’s all a lot of hot air and whimsical nonsense! Because say for example the universe goes on like it has been for another few Billion years and in that time the sun could become a red giant and the nearest planets including earth would be absorbed into the sun and eventually the red giant would under its own weight and gravity become a white dwarf! Just considering these concepts helps me to put my own life into perspective and realize that even all of earthly civilization amounts to nothing but a hill of beans, unless there is a lot more going on than meets the eye and that the human mind isn’t capable of fathoming!
But now that I spaced out our existence a bit in abstract terms let’s get right back down to earth and the old brass tacks as they say.
Where are you or I going with all of this scratching the surface and digging into some fascinating ideas or knowledge that even will really matter at the end of our lives here or further down the road or timeline as to the point would anyone care if there are people around millions of years from now or even just hundreds about who I was and what I did with my life? And what good would any of that matter in time when I’m dead and buried anyway! It wouldn’t matter in the scheme of material existence at all. But while looking into what you said in your commentary; maybe I can finally say what I think is the one thing that matters.
When you spoke about how when we are all very young and full of exuberance and dreams of what we will do in our future lives ahead and have such high hopes of amazing dreams and how this compelling drive is there by virtue of our wanting to make our mark on this world or leave a legacy, do something special in order to be remembered or very significant making use of all of that youthful ambition or sometimes pride. But then as the years pass and we go through transitions or even setbacks as life gets in the way or takes some twist and turn we start to see how the things we thought were so important recede into the background or our memories of our youth, and so we begin to let go of those desires or dreams perhaps becoming more practical, or actually seeing how those things are not so important to us and perhaps time is running out and we need to shift gears and get with the real program! That point you made about how we are find out that what we are really yearning for is that deep, pure and perfect love that can only come from our creator; this if you will, wake up and smell the coffee moment happens; our epiphany!
I think you nailed it down dashingly and so perfectly my Sister in Christ Jesus! You caused me to think of this Scripture immediately when I read this article essay of yours and it says so much about all of what I have written here; and what you finely tuned in on!
“10but when the perfect comes, the partial passes away. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside childish ways. 12Now we see but a dim reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.” 1 Corinthians 13:11
Those people you mention that say speaking about Jesus Christ and His being the Truth is all so deluded, unscientific, illogical or blinded; I can categorically and unequivocally say that I know for sure they are all of those things, and they miss the boat or point totally; they are “the blind leading the blind!” I have discovered through my own life experiences and being open to Jesus Christ my whole life that He is absolutely real and does let me know in many ways or instances; sometimes very obvious and profound ways too.
God did not create us to be lost in the massive universe to be drifting in a material plane of existence like so many wild seeds that haphazardly float about having no greater meaning or Divine planned meaning!
We were created in God’s image meaning we have this contemplative, creative and ethereal conceptualization of existence and our own place in it, which we can only see to a point on our own! But then He did provide us with great wisdom in His word, the Holy Scriptures to provide us a rudder to navigate in this big world with a destination in mind and heart that He has already told us about; which is to end up with Him and our Father in their heavenly eternal kingdom!
For now because its late in the day I think I can share some much further explanation here with a couple of my previous writings that speak to this very specifically and one in particular where I was led to some concrete evidence that Jesus Christ provided through design and Divine plan to acknowledge me and my faith in Him.
That is one that I wrote called “The Salvation Stone” will I hope confirms what you already know! And then the following essay called “Always Walking with Jesus Christ” that should be self-explanatory and again further confirmation about His presence is close at hand always; He truly wants us to seek and love Him to the best of our ability and to me this is the crux of this whole subject, of what to do with our lives and what really matters! Without Jesus Christ our lives will be empty and have no ultimate true meaning, but will only serve to be like chaff or those flickering candles in the breeze, “here today gone tomorrow!” He is our only Hope! Jesus Christ truly saves and nothing else in all of existence will save you bringing you to eternal life in Paradise!
God bless you and I will pray that something here is truly helpful to you!
So adorable Hope! Lots of work for sure, but good work when you can get it I say; because this is how great mothers come in and are always remembered and loved!!! I think of the Epic, “The Passion of The Christ” when Jesus was a baby boy and our Blessed Mother Mary tended to him so beautifully and was worried too like any great mother does; but then when He was an adult and He gave so much love and affection even musing with the siting at the table He had built for her; those scenes touched me so much; so keep receiving God’s Grace and Blessings, as you do the fine job you do; as a Mother! Amen.
I love being a mother, but 79% of the time I feel like a broken record. Repeating my commandments (rules), and divvying out proper punishments when they aren’t followed.
“No! We don’t play in the dog food, it’s yucky!”
“Please! Stop making a mess, you’ll have to clean it up!”
“No, we don’t hit, son, that isn’t kind!” ….
In the face of a child we see the very raw form of mankind. It’s rebellion and potential for both good and evil, even whilst we are innocent to what is good and bad. We learn very quickly how to lie and manipulate. As if it is second nature to us.
As parents, we have our jobs cut out for us to remove such nature, to restrain it and teach our children to do the same. In order to function as a society, rules and restraints are necessary. Upholding morality and…
Of course we all know this has been the biggest LIE ever perpetrated upon humanity if we are in possession of our faculties! What can we expect though when so many people are not just willing but begging to just give in and let our elected officials tell us what to think and do! When it is they who should be taking orders from US!
I said it before and I’m saying again, I had a bad time with my health due to brutal nefarious government officials along with their minions that harmed me and caused me to have to fight for my life on my own! Nobody cared deeply except my Mother, Father and God, along with the best doctor He sent my way to back up my legal issue; and she is a saint to me a great woman. So I don’t want any sympathy at all, but, I’m warning people that these power mongers and officials in charge won’t care a rat’s ass to wipe us out like cockroaches if they are allowed to continue making mandates and tell us we must do this or that! You are marching to your own slaughter when you think by cooperating you are saving your life; but, you are actually only providing a bit more time to live until they are ready to totally control and then destroy!
We must be vigilant in praying to Jesus Christ while we take a stand for Him and our God given purpose for existing, which is of course to serve our Father in Heaven; to do His will. And then we are assuring ourselves of life; but also everlasting in Paradise! Amen.
Don’t fail this test and take the Mark of the Beast giving in and thus supporting the Beast System! I’d rather die and plead to Jesus!
By going along with this evil you cut yourself off from God!
This is a Big Test of our faith and love of God!
It’s easy to make up your minds, look at Fauci and Biden; do you love them and want to follow them? Of course not! They are wicked and psychotic monsters!
Or do you want to love your Father in Heaven who will give you eternal happiness and genuine life there with Him through Jesus!
This is such an easy decision for me! I say to these devils bring it on and do what you will to me; but my soul belongs to God!
Amen.
God bless you and save you!

They were spirited and eager as they gathered at the Newmarket hockey rink, a league of older men, all double-vaccinated and keen to finally get back to a sport they’d put on ice since the start of the pandemic.
Now they are recovering from COVID-19, one of their teammates dead, wondering if this tragedy could have been averted.
“It’s just strange,” mused Brian Dunn, of Thornhill. “15 guys who played separate nights, different change rooms, days apart, one tragic death. We vacillate between absolutely pissed off and sad … I lost my best friend.”
Dunn knows for certain only what happened to him when he returned to play with the Midas 3-on-3 league Sept. 30.
The over-50 league plays Mondays and Thursdays at the Stellar Drive rink: four teams, eight players each, play two games each evening on one of the two modified ice pads.
