Another Long Day Is Ending...







As the sun is rising the second time for me after another greater than twenty four hour days (around 32 hours) I feel great but know the body is not meant for such abuse. Getting a good nights sleep does not just feel good it is good for our precious human cargo body we live in all our human existence... In the resting, grooming, regular feeding and the related work chosen to buy ones piece of mom's apple pie in the sky,it is easy to forget in pursuit of one's daily needs there is an author not only of salvation for those in need spiritually, but also the author of life  in creation with one's true spirit family tree with the ancestral deity god the eternal king. One could literally live in a vacuum of silence about God, and not know a thing about spiritual reality, except the religions festivals origins of many of our celebrations.
If you have not met god yet, take heart he is everywhere you can be as he is literally infinity alive. Everything is inside him, including those not needing a Savior and sometimes quite the disturbance brewing up for the less fortunate. All in a life so easily not lived as easily as it is to live anyway. Life can be paradise if you seek it and want it instead of just want to suffer doing without it as if disproving it exists to yourself as well as those who can as well be standing in god, not say hello and expect miracles anyway. I am not saying god will disappoint but surely it is not all his fault if you grew into a stranger.
So this sacred holiday season try to think about why there are turkeys in the oven next Sunday, as well as on Christmas, only nine months to go, and just try to not laugh and say is it true god is here, wherever I can go and wherever i ever am? Leave it to god to respond because he is a living god, he does not need any spokes men or women and if he stays quiet as I often find relax. After the billions of years of creation of this universe and the decades of your life, he may be wondering what people do when god is quietly among them instead of hurling thunderbolts and reigning down holy hell on those who should know better than to annoy god. These are the same types that would feed the bear even with a sign saying not to...

Religious or Public School Lessons, Which Not a Belief?






So our Ancestors were bright enough to plan, design, and construct massive stone structures yet they are treated like simpletons when it comes to Cosmology and Astronomy. Why? Why else but they believed in Creation, God or Gods, and a supernatural reality everyone lived in knowingly or not...

The Christian Religion is heir to a legacy that teaches in its text the New Testament of the Bible that we live inside God, that God is invisible, and He is a Spirit. In Public School I learned we live in a Universe composed of matter and that randomly interacting resulted in this day. I find difficulty trying to prove either true or presenting the facts to experience enough to answer the question which is the truth?

Religion requires belief in its claim we are created by God and live in His creation where He is invisibly present at all times as we live and dwell in Him. Science treats this as nonsense! Public School taught me we live in a Universe composed of the interactions of matter and that studying matter will reveal a godless life in phenomenal existence. Yet when I recall I learned I exist in a virtual reproduction of the world,in my brain,in the back of my head,upside down, and that the external reality (whichever you choose to believe),is only implied to be out there on the other side of our nose I find it very difficult to leap to the conclusion there is a Universe or a God based solely on their claimed to be out there in a virtual reality display... What can be proved by any amount of claims or displays In Virtual Reality? Think about it for yourself. Can anything claimed or claimed proven in any virtual reality scene be believed at all?

There is something self evident! We are in a virtual reality... Spin until when you stop and see the scene still spinning like whirling dervishes,or look at the world around you with its distance distortions in sight and sounds and realize the special effects involved, then figure it out, is it a God, a Universe, or Virtual Reality... Especially if what one can experience is the basis of reality.

As Palm Sunday Approaches...










With Palm Sunday coming on this weekend I would like to share why I still believe in life after death, the forgiveness of God through Jesus' atoning Sacrifice, and the aim of reconciliation by God. In my life there has been very upsetting times, the breaking up with my high school sweetheart, dropping out of college, the onset of schizophrenia, the times I thought about suicide seriously enough to get myself hospitalized,...
Then my mind found rest from its demons in faith in God and His Son Jesus. Fear gave way to boldness to curse the hordes of demons to whatever hell they deserved, but also there was hope God could save everyone who came to Him, including Judas, Satan and his minions, as well as evil men like Hitler. Why such belief? What is man that God would only give His forgiveness to him and his posterity? Why would man's disobedience be forgivable but not Lucifer's rebelliousness? If God could forgive those coming to Him for reconciliation why not all that are in a mind to keep themselves from any grave offense and live a harmless to all spirit life? Why not forgive Judas, Hitler and the devil if they can keep themselves from harming others spirit?
Of course many would argue forgiveness is only in Christs blood and only for mankind because he is made in God's image, or something like that. Yet let me remind those who did not read my Bible verses post that in the book of James in the New Testament of the Bible the law of liberty/freedom is how we are to behave as judged by.
Now liberty is special to me as I look around at Humanity and see so many people arrested for taking recreational liberty to activities harming no one else but participating parties and wonder why humans cannot let their neighbor be free to indulge in other than alcohol to get high, marriage to breed if they want to have sex or see the opposite sex nude, and games without gambling if they want to have fun,... So seeing the law to be as judged by in James lifted my spirit that God is not a tyrant wanting to rule our recreational lives and our relationships, but instead hints at a more Heavenly liberty in His courtroom.
So I believe in God, Creation, His Christ, and forgiveness because of the great hope and comfort of Salvation, eternal life, and Heavenly liberty. It has calmed my mind, is far better for my emotional health than godlessness, disbelief, or fearing the spirits or hallucinations at work on hate in my head. If you can believe, it may just calm your mind too...

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!







Being a human "mixed breed" I get to celebrate both Saint Patrick's and the Puerto Rico Day's Parade days. But wait... there's more in my immediate family bloodline! I am British on my father' mother side of the family, his father was Irish his mother was English. Wait, there's more... My mother's mother was both native Puerto Rico Indian and I think her  father was French (his last name was Binet) and  my moms father was Spanish that moved to Puerto Rico where he met and married my grandmother on my mothers side of the family tree. I guess I can celebrate a few more holidays if I look up on the internet Spanish, French, English and Irish Holidays! That's in addition to native Puerto Rico tribal holidays...

One's heritage can play a major part of ones life in ones growing years. Having relatives "around" that are not the same ethnic group but joined in loving marriages can make those of other "races" a little less "alien" and more like family waiting to be met or made. I personally did not find myself uncomfortable with other ethnic group members while growing up in the public school system in Brooklyn, New York but instead was easily a new friend to those other "groups" in the classroom. I know, everyone is not friendly, and you never know who a stranger is, or what they are like... but one thing is true just the same. If they are not "criminals" preying on the innocent, they too are fellow residents in this great nation, and they may be great neighbors, and maybe even new friends!

I hope we all enjoy Saint Patrick' Day, whether we are all Irish or not, as who knows, if we met we too might become friends:)
