The GOOD News:For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the world through him. THAT'S IT IN A NUTSHELL.
THE whole chebang IN A NUTSHELL
"‘Love the Lordyour God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment.And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
". . . and in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed."
Jesus the Christ
(Mark's account)
{ a "secret" . . . intimacy }
{ a "secret" . . . privacy }
{ a "secret" . . . legacy }
Jubilation. Oh, to be in love! The Psalmist sings out how Nature shouts its joy of such love. To love and be loved. To be in love. To love with all of heart and all of soul and all of mind. To have been sought, found, robed, homed and covered, such love, such immeasurable love, unconditional, basked in, blooms jubilation. This abiding relationship is an enviable relationship. Who embraced by it would choose to take it for granted? Who engulfed by it would not be bettered by it? There are many aspects to an enduring love relationship, who become by it would not seek to be ever more skilled being in it? Jubilation underscores this union. Unbroken! In touch. Enjoying communing with each other, being with each other, working things out together. Guarded and guided. A unique relationship. There is no flaw in you.
Skillset - 04 may prove amazing! Intimacy is awesome.
CRACK THE NUT
Dear Friend,
if you take my words to heart, if you set store by my commandments, turning your ear to wisdom, turning your heart to understanding, yes, if your plea is for clear perception,
if you cry out for understanding, if you look for it as though for silver, search for it as though for buried treasure, then you will understand what the fear of the Lord is, and discover the knowledge of God. For the lord himself is giver of wisdom, from his mouth issue knowledge and understanding.
A Sparkling Gem
(a swag of jubilation)
My God is love. Love divine. Hand to the face of jealousy. Hand to the face of name-callers. God is no abuser. Hand to the face of envy. Hand to the face of tricksters. Hand to the face of backbiters. Hand to the faces of sin-counters; your count is found wanting. Hands to hatred. God is holy.
God is awesome Here and Now.

"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."
Peter
Would HARDSHIP tarnish your character?
Would hardship prevent you from acting with the virtues or the character you hold to be important? Does hardship prevent anyone from acting with wisdom, justice, temperance or courage?
The Walk
Nicolette Sowder
"Give me the wild children with their bare feet and sparkling eyes. The restless, churning climbers. The wild ones using their outside voices, singing all the way home. Give me the wonder-filled, glorious mess makers dreaming of mountains and mud, aching to run through a field of stars."
BEING - (Healed - Freed - Seen - Restored)
LOVING - (all of Heart, all of Soul, all of Mind)
Life in a much Better Place
- Love your Neighbor as Yourself -
Isaiah, the Prophet
"The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives and freedom to prisoners."
Bishop Gene Robinson
"It's funny isn't it? That you can preach a judgmental and vengeful and angry God and nobody will mind. But you start preaching a God that is too accepting, too loving, too forgiving, too merciful, too kind . . . and you are in trouble."
Desmond Tutu
"You may be surprised at the people we find in heaven. God has a soft spot for sinners. His standards are quite low.."
Dear God, grant me victory today over all that assails. Help me square up to even the greatest challenges and claim authority over them, unafraid. Amen.
A mature element of love, joy and peace is acceptance (wisdom).

"It was not enough to come and listen to a great sermon or message every Sunday morning and be confined to those four walls and those four corners. You had to get out and do something."
