The ghost and mr. Chicken Meets Jeckyll and Hyde :))

Have you ever felt like the ghost and Mr. Chicken meets Jeckyll and Hyde :)) Well, If you don't know whether to be fearful, or either to laugh at someone elses retardedness or laugh at yourself for your stumblings or be angry for something, but you know that person is someone you love more than life it'self and they get on your nerves oh so bad, but yet you want to do the right thing, but oh my God! Aren't their limits to things? :) Anyway, I said let me know a week in advance whenever i plan on cleaning something else. :)) Now i am laughing, but it's the same situation every day. :) You have to learn to laugh, because if you cry, it's like a chain reaction which continuously knaws at you til it's turned your soul into sawdust.

goodnight everyone

good night everyone :) I am going to sleep. Hopefully the splinters will stay out of my feet and in the floor, take care...btw thank you for all your wonderful comments ;)

Loneliness

Have you ever seen that movie one would call Castaway? A man was so out of his mind and lonely to the point he talked to a soccer ball. One can be lonely in a crowd of people walking down a sidewalk in manhatten or on a bus full of people. Do you know why? no one will ever know. ;)
On a sunny day, you can be at home alone, looking out the window and tell God how lonely you are, the next thing you know someone calls you no matter whether it's a telemarketer trying to sell you something like insurance or Your aunt wanting you to change a lightbulb. You might roll your eyes because you change a dozen a week, or you can thank God you have an aunt and a telemarketer that says okay so funny bust into laughter. So what's wrong with castaway? Mindset, why is it so hard to get out of that mindset? Someone else's expertise maybe? :) A wounded animal will act awkward in a situation that's out of it's everyday norm. So how do you help that wounded animal, through love and patience. A bible is one thing, but a wounded animal don't like food crammed down it's throught (bye the way no soccer balls have been talked to in the duration) :D lol.

LOL the difference between splinters and logs

There's a big difference between a huge piece of wood which we call a log and a small stick of wood that gets under our skin called a splinter. :) A splinter, is something that sticks under our skin for awhile, when it doesn't belong there anymore, we eventually pull it out, as for logs, they are so heavy to tote, we spend so much time observing splinters til we lose sight that we carry these heavy logs in our arms for ages, while we have tried to elliminate so many splinters from so many people. :) Examine the weight you carry, a splinter is a small minor irritation, a log is a heavy load.

Spirit

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

Galatians 5:25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit

The Ten Commandments

This is mostly for me, but for anyone else who would like to read. :( Don't want to disregard anyone else's religion as i am gnostic. :) also do unto others as you would have them to do unto you :)

2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12**** ¶ Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.****
13 ***Thou shalt not kill***.(kill ones spirit is also murder btw)
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.

Prayers for Peace and Justice

Christian Prayers
Love and fidelity have come together;
Justice and peace join hands
Fidelity springs up from earth
and justice looks down from heaven.

Psalm 85:10-11 (New English Bible)

Holy One, may it yet be that love and fidelity will have their way with us, and in Iraq, and to the ends of the earth. May justice and peace join our hands to others so that your hope can flow beyond what we can see, beyond what we can say.

The Song of Zechariah
In the tender compassion of our God,
the dawn from heaven will break upon us,
to shine on those who live in darkness,
under the shadow of death,
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.


from the Bible, Luke 1:78-79,Song of Zechariah



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love,
Where there is injury, pardon,
Where there is doubt, faith,
Where there is despair, hope,
Where there is darkness, light,
where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console,
To be understood as to understand,
To be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
It is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Christian Prayer for Peace
Blessed are the peacemakers
for they shall be known as
the Children of God.
But I say to you that hear,
love your enemies,
do good to those who hate you,
bless those who curse you,
pray for those who abuse you.
To those that strike you on the cheek,
offer the other one also,
and from those who take away your cloak,
do not withhold your coat as well.
Give to everyone who begs from you,
and of those who take away your goods,
do not ask for them again.
And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Show us the peace
Show us the peace
Show us, good Lord,
the peace we should seek,
the peace we must give,
the peace we can keep,
the peace we must forgo,
and the peace you have given in Jesus our Lord.

8 good christian attitudes

humility, mournful, meekness, ambitious, sincerity, peaceful, and perseverance

wisdom

Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good life let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. This wisdom is not such as comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, devilish. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist there will be disorder and every vile practice. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, without uncertainty and insincerity. And the harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace." (James 3:13- 18)
