A sudden strange tilt....

 

You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.

All words have their own histories....

All the propaganda out there all attempting to persuade others one way or the other! Egad! 

Water over

or maybe Zooks, whatever. I believe when the final curtain falls, all everyone is doing is persuading themselves. They are the only ones who know what they will buy and eventually only believe it themselves.  As for others, they are doing the same thing reflectively. My sincere belief is that we are all totally responsible for whatever happens to us, whether we had any choice in the matter does not change the result that we bear the burden or the reward of whatever happens to us. Assigning blame is not the same as deciding who is responsible.

The one responsible is the one bearing the burden of the results of the one who is blamed for that burden. This is the kind of mush I get into after they taught me in public school how to diagram my sentences in the fourth grade. 

Actually, the history of words and the various parts they are made of is really high flying entertainment once anyone gets into it. For instance, the word for pig when it is alive is an English word and after it is prepared to be eaten is French. Everyday reality runs deep.

Unbelievable but believable anyway....

 Many find ancient accounts unbelievable yet while they may be, they could have easily happened anyway. Upcoming, the Red Sea parting will be explored to discover possible causal scenarios. 

Our future is becoming aware.... 

As it was in the womb it will be in this womb also until we are released into the unseen mystery of our future faith. 

The future changes our appearance until we complete the circle and finish out the course perfected by our chosen faith. Each day begins with the light slowly growing dark. 

Then we dream. Each day is a life that is lived and exhausted as we enter the next dark to dream what we constructed unbeknownst in the light. Each decision we make in the present faces us with new series of narrower decisions in the future we can only hope will be favorable in any future finality.

Going to college is like 

being in your Mother's 😊arms

From out of the heart the mouth speaks....

Whatever I say and speak, especially with passion, comes from within my spirit and that then is what I am becoming. My spirit speaks for me even I project either positive or negative predictions. In speaking of others I am speaking from myself,

ultimately speaking of myself. We all speak for our own benefit and take on the spiritual blessings or destructions we all project upon others. All words come from and grow from within our "hearts". Just my view. 

Why I believed it from the third or fourth grade I can't say, but on reflection as I speak, maybe it is because I thought I am going to be judged the same way I judge others? That just came to me which is why objectifying something by writing it down can give one ideas, even if they are obvious. 

The way it came to me originally was just that what someone else says about me has no direction over me, so why should I think anything about it? Now I am starting to become far afield because would I not have to give them permission to do it? Oh well, another tangled web I am weaving?.

God is Existence

 

  For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Pulpit Rock in the making

 See this date's, November 15, 2020 entry in Church and Faith at Pulpit Rock for the origin of that blog. The ancient writers urged us to worship together, and they did in small separate groups in their homes. Much later they built incredibly elaborate, large, actually astounding buildings that are a marvel to this day. As many

did not read, the churches were full of the most beautiful stained glass windows, life sized carvings and, all breath takingly domed, depicted in vast churches which served to communicate the story of worship to the non-reading public.
