Glory is Yours, Papa; so is kingdom.
To the Compassionate and Most Merciful One be glory for-ever and ever. Amen. Through Christ Jesus, whom I am not above. 'You call me Teacher and Lord, and that is as it should be, for that is what I am.' - Jesus (or, Isa)master

<div><p>《

</p>
|
||||
<p>It will be as in the days of the generation
|
||||
of Noah. People marrying and giving in marriage,
|
||||
eating an' drinking, were, knowing nothing
|
||||
about flood that came upon them until it came,
|
||||
and Noah and those whom G!D had commanded Noah
|
||||
to take with him - Oh, Noah obeyed what
|
||||
G!D told him. That is to say, he did not
|
||||
say 'No' to G!D out of defiance (or wilfulness);
|
||||
neither
|
||||
did he refuse to believe in the one whom
|
||||
G!D has sent (You know the god I am talking
|
||||
about: He who created the Universe and every-thing
|
||||
in it, the All-knowing, All-hearing and All-seeing
|
||||
Sovereign over the Day of Judgment who loves
|
||||
justice and detests wickedness) - and when
|
||||
destruction was complete, Noah asked G!D
|
||||
for permission to dis-embark from where
|
||||
G!D had spared him from destruction. (maybe
|
||||
in the Quran, this is written)
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>O prophet, your words will only be heeded-
|
||||
your advice will only be heeded by those
|
||||
who fear G!D, and are repentant, or otherwise
|
||||
willing to reconcile themselves to Him. (as written
|
||||
in the Quran). (the reader might want to compare
|
||||
this to the parable of the sower and the seed
|
||||
that Christ Jesus, son of Mary, gave, and which
|
||||
is recorded in Scriptures that are known as
|
||||
the Bible).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Quit? Oh LORD, let not Your spirit away from me!
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>On a point which may be elusive to people
|
||||
in some parts of- any-way, elusive to some people-
|
||||
is what exactly does it mean to say 'Thou
|
||||
art my shepherd; I shall not want.'
|
||||
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>G!D has given me the grace to type
|
||||
on a night in the tropics, so write I will,
|
||||
gladly. G!D brought me to
|
||||
<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/441024.Great_Fool?ac=1&from_search=true">
|
||||
a book
|
||||
</a>
|
||||
that is on- <br/><i>
|
||||
(checking it up in an information store, the Internet
|
||||
address of which is as follows)</i><br/>

||||

|
||||
<br/>
|
||||
a person who calls himself 'Great Fool'.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>In any case, a passage or idea from that book
|
||||
is that on the way to enlightenment,
|
||||
alms-taking is required. To put it in
|
||||
a way that is a little more familiar
|
||||
to the lay-man, or more precisely, those
|
||||
people who reside in urban areas (that is,
|
||||
not exactly pastoral), begging is required.
|
||||
A better-sounding name, that book has given
|
||||
that. Going to check information store again.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>'mendiciary'
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Perchance the starting point may have
|
||||
been forgotten. What does it mean to say,
|
||||
'Thou art my shepherd. I shall not want'?
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>How can one trust in a higher power that
|
||||
feeds and clothes one unconditionally, unless
|
||||
power is given over to the higher power in question
|
||||
to feed and clothe one?
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>What coming to mind is: Jesus. The disciples
|
||||
began arguing among themselves about who
|
||||
among them was the greatest in the kingdom
|
||||
of Heaven. Taking a little one to Jesus,
|
||||
Jesus said, 'Truly, truly, I tell you,
|
||||
those who humble yourself as this little one
|
||||
is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven.'
|
||||
(among numerous other examples, of little
|
||||
ones being a model to Man, that Jesus gave).
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>You ever saw a little one - say, one year
|
||||
of age, in your so-called modern measures
|
||||
of time - suit up in tie and tuxedo, and
|
||||
wait tables? Or pump petrol for others
|
||||
at a gas station? Who feeds a one-year-old?
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>You wanna be greatest in kingdom of Heaven?
|
||||
How about you learn from a one-year-old about
|
||||
trust in a world that feeds you, and clothes
|
||||
you unconditionally, among other things
|
||||
that a one-year-old can teach you, if you choose
|
||||
to humble yourself?
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>To emphasise on what Jesus - who is Teacher
|
||||
and Lord, as it should be - said, verse from Bible:
|
||||
And he said to them:
|
||||
"Truly I tell you, unless you change and
|
||||
become like little children, you will never
|
||||
enter the kingdom of Heaven."
|
||||
<a href="http://biblehub.com/matthew/18-3.htm">
|
||||
(Gospel of Matthew, chapter eighteen, verse three.
|
||||
http://biblehub.com/matthew/18-3.htm)
|
||||
</a>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>So, back to the beginning. What does it mean
|
||||
to you to say the following:
|
||||
'Thou art my shepherd; I shall not want"
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>On a some-what related note, G!D
|
||||
has given me a chance to attend a lesson
|
||||
or example of what some call homoletics.
|
||||
'Big' word? Or complicated word?
|
||||
How about this: how to communicate
|
||||
more effectively?
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>So one of the ideas during that demonstration
|
||||
or lesson that came up in mind was the
|
||||
art of repetition, which interestingly
|
||||
enough, is a rather prominent feature
|
||||
in classical music, or music from the
|
||||
period of your development that some
|
||||
have called 'the Classical period'.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Maybe those who are familar with a certain
|
||||
type of computers know it as 'copy-and-paste'.
|
||||
So, the art of repetition (a concept that
|
||||
G!D has introduced me to in a music course,
|
||||
which is, of course, from the-LORD-who-will-provide)-
|
||||
the art of repetition is how you 'copy-and-paste',
|
||||
not just what you 'copy-and-paste'.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>So, parable of sower and seeds, coming to mind
|
||||
again.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Hm. To sum up,
|
||||
<ul><li>
|
||||
humble yourself as a little one.
|
||||
If you do not, no kingdom of Heav'n.</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li>you say 'Thou art my shepherd.
|
||||
I shall not want'. What does that mean to you?
|
||||
Are you even giving yourself a chance
|
||||
to be shepherd-ed - clothed and fed unconditionally?
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>So, having examples- but, demonstration
|
||||
of homoletics included a clear warning to not
|
||||
introduce to you - or the audience, or the
|
||||
people you are preaching to - any new content
|
||||
or points, (where) in the conclusion, or where
|
||||
you have told your audience where you will end.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>My time is short, how-ever. G!D will take
|
||||
my life - or what people of the world think
|
||||
of as life, to be more accurately speaking -
|
||||
according to His will, which is above my will.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>Sufficient for you, it is becoming clear,
|
||||
that there are highly visible persons among
|
||||
your urban (that isn't exactly pastoral)
|
||||
societies who have attempted- not suicide-
|
||||
mendiciary. (begging. taking alms.)
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>So, to repeat, if you don't give a higher power
|
||||
- or, a higher being who causes rain or water to fall from
|
||||
the sky so that your thirst may be satisfied -
|
||||
(oh, thank You for the rain, oh, Papa (Father)
|
||||
who is Ruler of the Universe, whose name
|
||||
is hallowed. Why, G!D, Your people have
|
||||
created imitations of the sound of rain-drops
|
||||
falling on surfaces, so that they may be
|
||||
soothed or otherwise comforted, or find
|
||||
a common humanity)-
|
||||
to repeat, if you do not give a higher power
|
||||
a chance to feed you un-conditionally, what is it
|
||||
to you to spend time with words that have
|
||||
the breath of G!D in them? What is it to you to
|
||||
say or see the following: 'Thou art my shepherd;
|
||||
I shall not want.'

||||
