<p>As surely as the LORD - the Holy
|

One of Israel, who is called the

creator of all the Earths - as surely

as the LORD lives, the following

promises, that He makes from long

ago, have been fulfilled in my life,
|

and I count myself trustworthy
|

as someone who thinks he has the spirit

of G!D - that is, I confess that
|

the Son of Man came in the flesh -
|
||
eating and drinking and having flesh
|
||
and bones - and rose from the dead.
|

Yes, the Son of Man came in the flesh,
|

and rose from the dead: this I have

witnessed, as surely as the LORD G!D

lives.

|
||
<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/>
|
||
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/441024.Great_Fool?ac=1&from_search=true
|
||
<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>Or more precisely, 'mendicancy'.
|
||
</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.'
|
||
</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
<div><p>
|
||
|
||
to have the no small honour to obey the guidance
|
||
that <a href="http://biblehub.com/isaiah/41-14.htm">
|
||
the mighty helper of worm Jacob and little Israel
|
||
</a>
|
||
has given me (even me), offering
|
||
<a href="https://tinyletter.com/now-to-Jehovah-be-the-glory-for-ever-and-ever-amen">
|
||
a service</a>
|
||
that is
|
||
in obedience to the following verse: <br/>
|
||
<a href="http://biblehub.com/psalms/81-3.htm">
|
||
Blow the ram's horn at new moon, and again
|
||
at full moon to call a festival! (Psalm 81:3)
|
||
</a>
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
G!D knows, and I do not know what will happen. :-)
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Nevertheless, a verse from Scripture, every word
|
||
of which has the breath of G!D in them, seems fitting:
|
||
<br/> <a
|
||
href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Peter+5&version=KJV">
|
||
Be alert and of sober mind.

|

May the love of G!D -
|
||
<a href="http://www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/nora/html/2-135.html">
|
||
who instructs me to say
|
||
to those who ask if I want to convert to their
|
||
religion
|
||
(or otherwise turn to, or enter into their practices)
|
||
the following: 'Nay, I would rather the religion

||
of the True Abraham, and worship the Almighty One,

who created the sky above and the earth below and
|
||
everything in the Universe, and who judges

over the Last Day

|

and Most Merciful One, who is
|

oft-returning and oft-forgiving.

So, to bless those who curse me,

<a href="http://biblehub.com/matthew/5-44.htm">
|

are people who may or may not be more helpful

<li>may the virtue of these deeds be to exalt

the presence of the Most Compassionate and Most

Merciful One who rules the universe in

<li>Perhaps story of alchemists (oh,

my Daddy in Heaven is greater alchemist than I,

if I am alchemist - and if you asking whether

I am alchemist, then my reply is: 'It is as you say')
|

may be relevant. Just coming to mind:
|

alchemists some-what oppressed, so they
|
||
hid their knowledge in symbols so avoid
|
||
persecution from the church (which you
|

can take to mean the people of any instituion, of

so-called learning, that are anxious

to seem prestigious or exclusive.

, uh- supposedly some

say - G!D help me avoid godless chatter -
|

well, what they guard is false knowledge,

and I care not for knowledge that

is not given to me out of fear of G!D, for

fear of G!D is beginning of all wisdom. (But

It is the 106th year since G!D helped

a foolish fool who spoke up for worthless

idols - carven images that cannot save

his soul, nor help him restore his saltiness,
|

if he were salt that had lost his saltiness -
|
||
and it is the twelth month since G!D
|
||
chased the mischief-makers - those who
|
||
delight in wickedness, and say, 'We
|
||
are peace-makers', when it is they
|
||
who are surely the mischief-makers
|

or those who delight in mischief or

wickedness - away from before a subject

of mockery, and ridicule, and torture,

and torment, and severe programming,

|

<p>
|

Who are the people you admire and what values or traits do they have that you want to take on?
|
||
你欣赏的人是谁?他们有什么你想要采取的原则或特征?
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Mike Cernovich for saying he wants to inspire people,
|
||
being an online badass, being bold, and producing content
|
||
that intrigues people, to me, at least. Striving
|
||
for what he's worth. Also, giving people strength
|
||
and giving females strength. He taught confidence with guns[,]
|
||
to his fiance.
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Afrojack for giving people hope because to me his songs create a positive mentality
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Paul van Dyk for giving people happiness because to me his songs or sounds have a very strong connection with people's emotions
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
Steve Aoki for letting females guest-appear because it's manly.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>So, it's your turn. What about you?
|
||
Who do you admire, and what are traits
|
||
in them that you want to nurture
|
||
in yourself? If you're interested,
|
||
a related concept is self-differentiation.
|
||
And the context is - well, huh, a
|
||
somewhat obscure, or maybe not, topic -
|
||
of 'ego enmeshment' (you can check it up
|
||
on the Internet, or [with]
|
||
a family therapist,
|
||
maybe) - or on a brazenly spiritual
|
||
note, renunciation, or liberation
|
||
from suffering, which may or may not
|
||
involve doing some voluntary (and
|
||
definitely painful) separation of
|
||
self from others. A
|
||
<strike>popular</strike>
|
||
song-singer (Or song-writer)
|
||
goes: 'I've just
|
||
gotta
|
||
find who I am /
|
||
and who I'm not /
|
||
I won't give up on us /
|
||
who I am /
|
||
what I am /
|
||
who I'm not /
|
||
what I'm not /
|
||
I won't give up on us'
|
||
or something like that.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>What? Ya, uh, so
|
||
took some time, thought
|
||
I've lost myself,
|
||
but seems kinda,
|
||
that was ne'er me in the first place /
|
||
never was me /
|
||
what I thought was me /
|
||
was never me /
|
||
So, bombastic, big words /
|
||
family therapy /
|
||
for me /
|
||
may just help me /
|
||
put words that seem /
|
||
small but can be big /
|
||
and mighty with the /
|
||
help of G!D /
|
||
All I'm sayin' is /
|
||
If you're thinkin' you're crazy /
|
||
you're probably going somewhere /
|
||
hey, I'm happy /
|
||
And it feels great to shout it out /
|
||
even though G!D may be the only one /
|
||
who hears me / I'm still happy /
|
||
G!D, I love You, O LORD,
|
||
King of the Universe /
|
||
Hey, hey, hey, hey /
|
||
praise and glory and kingdom /

What? What are you looking at?
|
||
Can't you see tis about you?
|
||
(Can't you see that it is about you?)
|
||
Supposedly one of the quotes that G!D has
|
||
brought me before,
|
||
from a Mister Homeless Kodo. Mister
|
||
Suzuki. (
|
||
|
||
whom G!D has also
|
||
shown me to have human foibles,
|
||
especially in it: (what)
|
||
faith in
|
||
the one whom G!D has sent,
|
||
and trust in a higher Mind.
|
||
But who am I to comment?
|
||
'For we are indeed not perfect.
|
||
If we were perfect, we would be a perfect
|
||
man, able to control every part
|
||
of our body, or every organ - for example,
|
||
anus (or
|
||
burps or farts
|
||
or thoughts or itches) - at will. So, not many of you,
|
||
brethren, should become teachers,
|
||
for we are indeed judged more
|
||
strictly, or stringently, than
|
||
others.' (from Scriptures).
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
So, something G!D gave me, now giving
|
||
as freely as it was received.
|
||
So in certain village,
|
||
people live and glory themselves
|
||
in their shameful nakedness. And
|
||
they do not know it, so they are disgraced.
|
||
(like the well-known story of
|
||
the emperor with no clothes, but another
|
||
story that is, for another time.)
|
||
(and indeed I am nothing at all.)
|
||
So, G!D has mercifully and compassionately
|
||
brought me before a set of questions
|
||
to hold hands, if you will, of those
|
||
who chase money or riches of the world.
|
||
They are as follows:
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strike>First</strike>'C': what is the centre
|
||
of my life? ('You must have an
|
||
un-shake-able centre,' said the
|
||
one whom G!D had brought me to.)</li>
|
||
<li><strike>Second</strike> 'C':
|
||
What is the character of my life?
|
||
(memory is a little foggy. shomething
|
||
about shape. Mnemonics (that is, memory
|
||
device. To make memorisation
|
||
easier.) S-H-A-P-E.
|
||
<ul><li>
|
||
'S". Support maybe?</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
'H'. Happiness? What makes me happy?
|
||
Or what makes me feel good?
|
||
Good feels that come without
|
||
drugs that cost money?
|
||
(A certain Mister Robbins
|
||
talked about this in a book.
|
||
'Making love with my wife, that
|
||
makes me feel good,' he said. '
|
||
Exercise on [some equipment
|
||
|
||
something something].')
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
'A'.
|
||
|
||
Attractive? Which part of me
|
||
or my life do I find really
|
||
attractive? G!D
|
||
brought me to an exercise
|
||
that a person required
|
||
for homework during
|
||
university years. 'Ask
|
||
your friends, or people
|
||
whom
|
||
you've worked with,
|
||
for your
|
||
RBS. (what's RBS) [Something]
|
||
Best Self. Ask them
|
||
when they saw you at your best.
|
||
Co-workers. People you've
|
||
lost touch with.
|
||
People whom you maybe
|
||
did some research with,
|
||
or did a project with. (and
|
||
then separated or dis-banded
|
||
after that.)
|
||
In my case,
|
||
that was homework, and it felt
|
||
awkward to ask. But am I glad I
|
||
did that. (in
|
||
hind-sight). Others viewed me
|
||
in a positive light, because
|
||
the question was about
|
||
my best possible self. And that was
|
||
pleasantly surprising. It helped me
|
||
feel esteemed in away I did not know
|
||
I could feel esteemed. It's kinda healthy,
|
||
not bragging pridefully, more accepting,
|
||
if you will, what you've got in this
|
||
brief life? (['cos] Baby you're a fire-work /
|
||
Come on, let your colours burst /
|
||
Let them go high, hi, high /
|
||
(make them go: 'ah, ah, ah')
|
||
As you shoot across the sky - aye,
|
||
aye' (G!D brought me to a little
|
||
one who sang something like that.)
|
||
So that's 's', 'h', and 'a'.
|
||
'p' and 'e' are left. Wow.
|
||
What an exercise for memory.</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
'P'. Personality maybe? Or
|
||
your points of pain? You know,
|
||
loneliness could be a point of pain.
|
||
And, uh,
|
||
If you talk about it, you don't
|
||
have to, but if you wanna, maybe,
|
||
just maybe, you'll find some
|
||
solace. You could put in a diary
|
||
maybe. Or you could really-
|
||
it's gonna sound icky or
|
||
off-putting, at first, at least,
|
||
but you could try... talking to a
|
||
counsellor. A professional one.
|
||
I talked to a counsellor myself.
|
||
And it helped that it was non-judgmental.
|
||
(G!D gave me a quote in my life:
|
||
'People are so in lack - or
|
||
maybe not in lack, but simply
|
||
forgotten - on the skill of
|
||
listening. That's why
|
||
you have people <strike>now</strike> who are
|
||
getting paid to listen. Life
|
||
coaches. Counsellors. Whatever
|
||
you call them. So,
|
||
stigma aside, you definitely
|
||
deserve - it won't be apparent,
|
||
at first - you have every right
|
||
to be attended to, or listened
|
||
to, without any judgment coming
|
||
into what you are trying to say.
|
||
So, those people you hang out
|
||
with over a beer might not be
|
||
the best at helping to talk
|
||
about whatever you wanna talk
|
||
about. Yeah. You do not
|
||
realise it know, but you definitely
|
||
deserve attention or care that does not
|
||
feel like [eating]
|
||
a rotten sandwich. Or,
|
||
you deserve to be away from
|
||
people, whoops, any-body
|
||
or any voice in your head that
|
||
tells you you deserve only
|
||
to eat a rotten sandwich. But of
|
||
course, you won't realise it now;
|
||
but you will realise or understand
|
||
after-ward.
|
||
So, that's 'P'.</li>
|
||
<li>
|
||
And 'E'. (laughing). (huh).
|
||
You know, it is written in Scriptures,
|
||
'Sarah said, "G!D has made me
|
||
laugh - G!D made me laugh - so
|
||
that those who can hear will laugh
|
||
with me."'
|
||
So, 'E' is for 'experience[s]'.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
So that's 'SHAPE'. S-H-A-P-E.
|
||
So, what came to mind, was
|
||
how those who are labelled
|
||
with mental illnesses may not
|
||
be experts in knowledge (or
|
||
so-called knowledge) of so-called
|
||
mental illnesses. As much as that
|
||
may be so, they are experts on
|
||
their experiences. Experts by experience,
|
||
they are. Just like how you
|
||
can get a Master's degree by research
|
||
or thesis or what- uh, what-ever.)
|
||
So, ask yourself: where are the subjective experts on
|
||
their experiences? Are you an expert on
|
||
your experience of life or G!D or god?
|
||
So, what are they, those whom you call
|
||
'patients' or 'un-well', if you
|
||
are an expert on your experience
|
||
of life or your limits or your
|
||
god? Are they any less or any more
|
||
an expert on your experience of life,
|
||
than you are an expert on theirs? So,
|
||
how come you are the expert
|
||
[on their life], and not them?
|
||
'You hypocrite. You say to your brother,
|
||
"take the pin out of your eye. Here, let me
|
||
help you." Take the log out of your
|
||
own eye first, then you can see clearly
|
||
to help your brother.' That's what Jesus said.
|
||
It's in Scriptures. And hate me. Why?
|
||
Because Jesus was hated, too. And I'm
|
||
honoured to be in his company. Or the
|
||
company of those whom G!D sends, for
|
||
they are ridiculed by those of the world,
|
||
since the times of the fathers of those

Your Almighty G!D and my Almighty G!D are the same G!D. He created Heaven and Earth and the Universe and everything in it. He is G!D of Abraham, and G!D of the prophets. <br/>
|
||
|
||
Compassionate and Merciful in the Most - G!D who is slow to anger, and oft-forgiving, Whom thou shalt not put to the test (as Scripture says). <br/>
|
||
|
||
In my folly I have prostituted myself to something that cannot help me at all. Detestably, I have taken a toilet-bowl (or a water-closet) - you know, a pipe that you poop in -
|
||
as a god. I have feared the wrath of a god of a toilet bowl, and attempted to please that god. Over a period of time, those attempts included: knelt in front of a toilet-bowl; bit a toilet-bowl. <br/>
|
||
|
||
'Save me,' I desperately cried to a toilet-bowl. <br/>

'The poor, deluded fool feeds on ashes. He trusts in something that cannot help him at all! Yet he cannot bring himself to reflect or think to himself: "Is this thing, that I am holding in my hand, a lie?" (Isaiah 44:20) <br/>

||
|
||
And yet, G!D has enabled me to write this, and I thank the Almighty Lord of lords, and King of kings; praise G!D, I do, for He has shown loving-kindness, and mercy that is in the Most High.
|
||
|
||
To G!D be the glory. <br/>

It took time. And terrors, admonishments (out of dear love), and signs and wonders, G!D has convinced me that He has paid a price to redeem a prostitute like myself. <br/>

So, testify, as a witness of G!D, I shall.

Drugs - things: bitter in taste, white in colour, and smaller than a finger-nail in size. Those whom I turned to - shepherds, of renown in the land -
|
||
charged me money for those things, and kept me in a pen that I could not leave from, even if I asked nicely. <br />
|
||
|
||
'This thing gives me uneasiness. I wake up in the middle of the night to walk; I feel compelled. And it gives me convulsions in my hands sometimes.'
|
||
|
||
This I told them. <br/>
|
||
|
||
And they said, 'Here's another thing. Eat it. It controls the uneasiness of the thing that you talked about.' <br/>
|
||
|
||
'But,' they continued, 'It does things to you, even though it controls the thing that you talked about.' <br />
|
||
|
||
I did not know what they talked about. This thing, that thing. <br />
|
||
|
||
The shepherds - some of them, at least - intimidated me. 'If you do not do as we say,' they hinted, in a way that was not very nice, 'you will keep staying in this pen. You will not be let out.'
|
||
<br />
|
||
So, ate both things, I tremulously did. Indeed, I was afraid of consequences that men promised unto me, instead of fearing the Almighty One.
|
||
|
||
I wanted to get out of that pen. And so, I dis-obeyed not, but co-operated, although I have voiced my defiance to their ways a few times. <br />
|
||
<br />
|
||
'Finish your food,' they said. And I was afraid. So I ate, although I had been feeling very full at that point.
|
||
<br />
|
||
(Later they would give me a recipe for 'sayur lodeh', when I asked them how to make a certain mixture that I had eaten.)
|
||
|
||
<br/>
|
||
'Drink water with your "medicine",' they said. And I was fed up. 'No,' I said. 'I am going to eat "medicine" without water. See, it enters my body just fine.' <br />
|
||
|
||
And they said, in a way that was not very nice, 'Drink water with the "medicine", or else.' <br />
|
||
|
||
I walked away, but I was anxious to get out of that pen, and keen to appear co-operative. (And they had others to talk to.) So, I returned to them, but they said, 'Don't worry. We've recorded that you were obedient enough. That is, that you have eaten "medicine".'

||
<br />
|

Anyhow, this story is becoming godless.

Long story short, they left me. they care nothing for me. <br />

All your lovers have forgotten you;

for I have dealt you the blow of an enemy,

the punishment of a merciless foe,

because your sins are flagrant. (Jeremiah 30:14, ESV)

Alas! That day is so great

'For I will restore health to you,

Therefore all who devour you shall be devoured,

and all your foes, every one of them, shall go into captivity;

those who plunder you shall be plundered,

|
||
<br />
|

'For I am with you to save you,'
|
||
|

declares the Lord;
|

'I will make a full end of all the nations
|

among whom I scattered you,
|

but of you I will not make a full end.
|

I will discipline you in just measure,
|

and I will by no means leave you unpunished.' (Jeremiah 30:11)

<br />

'Then fear not, O Jacob my servant, declares the Lord,

nor be dismayed, O Israel;

for behold, I will save you from far away,

Indeed, as it is written in the Bible, G!D exalts those who humble themselves before Him, and humbles those who exalt themselves before Him.

Why?

<br /> For it is written in the Bible: '
|

Now you are slaves

of other nations,
|

but I will break the chains
|

and smash the yokes
|

that keep you in slavery.

Then you will be my servants,

and I will choose a king for you

from the family of David.'

Why?
|
||
<br />
|
||
For is it not written in the Bible: 'Your hearts will swell with joy - even your heart of hearts - and you will be as calves let out to pasture.'
|
||
<br />
|
||
I praise You, G!D, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful; that I know full well. (from the Bible)
|
||
<br />
|
||
And it is written in the Quran: 'If good touches you, it distresses them; but if harm strikes you, they rejoice at it. And if you are patient and fear Allah , their plot will not harm you at all. Indeed, Allah is encompassing of what they do.'

'Bless those who persecute you. Don’t curse them; pray that God will bless them. Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep.'

'Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say,
|
||
|
||
“I will take revenge;
|
||
I will pay them back,”
|
||
says the LORD.
|
||
Instead,
|
||
“If your enemies are hungry, feed them.
|
||
If they are thirsty, give them something to drink.
|
||
In doing this, you will heap
|
||
burning coals of shame on their heads.”
|
||
Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.'
|
||
(Romans 12:19-21, NLT)

|
||
'Be merciful, as your Master is merciful.' - Jesus
|
||
<br />
|
||
So, G!D admonishes and sets trials and obstacles. Admonishes out of dear love. Trials, so that if you overcome, a reward is for you, with the LORD, G!D of Abraham. (Book of Revelations, if you're interested.)
|
||
<br />
|
||
Happily ever after, by a servant of G!D who created Heaven and Earth - G!D who knows all, hears all and sees all (G!D knows and you do not) - G!D who knows the hearts and minds of men, G!D who loves justice, and detests wickedness.
|
||
<br />
|
||
So remind me, G!D, to fear You, and to humble myself before You, and to let Your will be done, not mine.
|
||
<br />
|
||
'And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus.'
|
||

(Phillipians 4:19, NLT)

|
||
<br />
|
||
For it is written in the Quran: 'Bring glad tidings, invite them to your LORD, practice charity openly and secretly, and do righteousness that is godly - it is not righteousness to turn to the
|
||
East or the West, but it is righteousness to obey G!D, and to keep His commandments.'

In the Quran, it is written: 'Take Sadaqah (alms) from their wealth in order to purify them and sanctify them with it, and invoke Allah for them. Verily! Your invocations are a source of security for them, and Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.'

To you who think you have 'mental illness', and are trying to 'control' that with abominations that are man-made, the Bible has a
|
||
verse, oh the G!D-breathed Word that is suitable for rebuking and disciplining so that you are wise for salvation through
|
||
the Christ: 'A house divided cannot stand'
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
|
||
On people who are involved with the death penalty: executioner, legal procedure people. The Bible has said, 'Put away your swords,
|
||
For those who live by the sword will die by the sword.' <br/> And that is supposedly a gift from the Lord Christ Jesus. 'Those who have
|
||
Ears, let them hear,’goes another part of the Bible.
|
||

|
||

||
Now when Jesus was asked
|
||
'Are you Son of G!d'
|
||
Jesus said
|
||
'It is as you say. Furthermore, I tell you now that I am resurrecting in three days after my death,
|
||
by the power given me by my Father in Heaven'
|
||
'Blasphemy,' they said, sending Jesus to crucifixion
|
||
(Thy will be done on Heaven, and thy will be done on earth as on Heaven. O blessed are you, Father in Heaven, King of the Universe, Ruler of Heaven. Hallowed be thy name.)
|
||
Apostle Paul said,
|
||
'My execution of Christians was before the Lord Christ Jesus appeared to me, saying, 'Why are you killing me?'
|
||
Now, conscience of mine, it is clear before G!d and man.'
|
||
It is written in the Bible, 'Christ- the Christ lives in me.'
|
||
And it written in the Bible. What? Paul was preaching to people who heard him, but they began leaving
|
||
After hearing him say. What?
|
||
You hear always but do not understand

|

Routine that is awkward and painful is no longer music to my ears /
|
||
Often, people don't always take care of themselves /
|
||
Why don't they love themselves /
|
||
Birds came in, red /
|
||
and purple too /
|
||
That's what they turned my skin into /
|
||
Ain't that a sharp pain there /
|
||
Oh, why do they hurt me so /
|
||
My kiss to them /
|
||
Lets my blood out /
|
||
They continue chirping /
|
||
Perhaps this is the time /
|
||
to say it's- /
|
||
o /
|
||
it's not okay /
|
||
why do my tears flow /
|
||
oh, joy /
|
||
ow /
|
||
it's time to die, the birds say /
|
||
death-songs come softly /
|
||
please forgive them, Heavenly Compassionate Father /
|
||
Boom
