” Simon Peter answered him, Master, to whom shall we go? You have the words of Eternal Life”

Jn 6:68

With these words within the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, some may not truly understand, so they will turn away and give up on following Jesus Christ. This quote from the Gospel, couldn’t be truer of the way we are within this society. We all in one way or another, have walked away from something, we give up on working through something because it is the easy way out. Take marriages for instance, gone are the days of 40+ years together, only because, nobody wants to work together to get thru the tough times, so we think the grass will be greener with another at our side? In some cases, the marriage gets off on the wrong foot, as some will become someone they are not just to land what they say is the ” big catch”? If your basing a marriage on this philosophy, then you will be doomed from the very beginning. When you are not true to who you are at the beginning, then how do you expect for anyone to truly know the real you? Life is not about portraying some fake portion, or maybe someone that you yourself does not even know, because when you do this, then you are dividing yourself, from all others around you.

Then as we walk our paths of this journey, there will be many life events that will come to us, yes these events will control us if we let them. Some of these events will be brought on by ourselves and our actions, as other events will come from those around us. No matter how the event may come, when the going gets rough, we walk away to try to escape it, instead of facing it head on and working through our troubles, which will actually make us better and stronger moving forward. Jesus talks about his body and blood to his followers, he then passes around a bread loaf for each to rip off a piece, for his last supper, then passes around the red wine as his blood, for all to drink. When we eat this bread and drink this wine, we are acknowleding Jesus within our hearts and souls, as he then gives us eternal life within the world of his peace. It is when we do not keep to this faith, that any hope for our future, diminishes from our paths. Right now within this society, too many have lost this faith, as we see all the chaos and ugliness around us. Many have walked away from Jesus Christ, as they think they can do better as they walk this journey through life? Some may go to the house of the Lord on Sunday’s, then as they leave after service, will forget what was said and return to their own ways? But will say they believe? To truly believe in Jesus Christ, is believing with your mind, body and soul, listening to the words in the Gospel and implementing them within your current life, not forgeting what was said, then trying to move forward with your own version? Jesus was not about taking over the world, or killing others, this is totally on we the people, and with all the ugliness around us, we can clearly see, just how many have walked away and gave up on Jesus, taking the easy way out, instead of staying in the fight and working through the hard times, so we than can be within the peace and love of Jesus Christ.

To some within this society, it is all about me, me, me, they think that Jesus never exsisted and no matter right or wrong, their way is the only way? This is exactly the kind of attitude that is affecting us all as we walk our paths of this journey. With this attitude or Ideaology, we are on a path of division and destruction, unless we change our ways and attitudes, then one day there will be nothing left for further societies to come. We are our own worst enemy, we will walk away from anything that gives us troubles and find the easy way, as we have become too lazy, to work for anything that is worth it for our future. Yes, there are some that will try to push their ways on to us, they will Bully us into taking our control away from us, so they can only seem as powerful as they are? Those who are being Bullied, then walk away, instead of standing up to the Bully, because at the time it seems like the easy way out, but in reality, we are furthering the agenda of the Bully. We all have been bullied at some point along our paths, it is how we deal with these times and not walk away, that determines of how we move forward, better and stronger throughout this journey we walk.

Walking away from anything at the time, may seem like the best thing? But in reality, we are hurting ourselves and those around us. We have walked away from too many of our troubles in the past, only if we have stayed and fought harder to overcome the troubles, then maybe our futures wouldn’t be so bleak? With all the division and the destruction around us today, goes to show just how many have walked away, to take what they thought was the easy way out? Jesus walked through this journey, not to show us this division and destruction, this is on each of us within this society, Jesus walked this journey, to show us love, compassion for each other, how to get through the troubling times, to get through the storms, so we can get to the other side, the side of the light of the path of righteousness, as he brings us into his peace and joy, of the eternal world. This journey of life does not revolve around any certain one of us, it revolves around us all, and when we truly feel the love of Jesus within our hearts and souls, when we truly have the faith in Jesus Christ, we then will see the hope right in front of us, as we keep moving forward along our paths, we also will be more able to walk through any storm and get to the other side, the side of the light along the path of righteousness, that is the path Jesus showed us to get to, for the eternal life, of the world of peace and happiness always.

When those troubling times come to you, when the darkness takes away all the light, this is when we need to be at our strongest, this is when we need to stand up and fight the good fight, keep the true faith in Jesus Christ as he will help guide us, as we dig down deep within, to not just walk through the storm, but walk through with faith, that the true hope will always be there on the other side, so we than can be within the peace and joy of Jesus Christ. This journey isn’t about walking away and taking the easy route, but when we fight the good fight and overcome our troubles, then this journey will become easy for us all, as now through the faith in Jesus and ourselves, the peace and joy is right in front of us along with the hope, which then dismisses all the division and the ugliness that may be around us. Satan is the one who will place the bumps along our paths, to trip us up away from Jesus Christ, he will bring to us many temptations, that will bring nothing but darkness to us all. This is why we need to keep the faith in Jesus as well as ourselves, so we can have the true hope before us, and not the false hope of, all the divisiion and ugliness that Satan will give us, when we give in to his temptations. The decision is ours to make, we can either feel the warmth of the love of Jesus within our hearts and souls, or we can let our hearts become cold, within the world of Satan, full of division and destruction. When we truly follow Jesus as he guides us onto the path of righteousness, we will be within the eternal life of his peace and joy, but when we chose Satan, we then will be within all the division and ugliness, which then brings much pain and hurt to us all. With the true faith in Jesus and ourselves, we then can walk through the dark times, to get into the light of salvation and eternity, which then will bring to us, the peace and joy of Jesus Christ.

So the easy way out and to just walk away from your troubles, may seem like the best way? The grass is never greenest on the other side, as we need to work through our troubles, so we than can truly see the real green grass on the other side, as we become better and stronger moving forward. This is what Jesus taught us as he walked this journey with us, this is how we evolve with strength and how we move forward instead of backwards further into the darkness. We can walk away from everything that may be in front of us, but if we do not fight the good fight, we will never learn the true meaning of what Jesus taught us during his time with us. So as the Priest talks of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, he really means that, don’t just eat the bread and use the wine to chase it down, let the bread melt in your mouth, then let the blood of Christ bring it throughout your body, as you acknowledge Jesus is within you, then you can feel the true warmth of his love within your heart and soul, so with the true faith of Jesus and of yourself, now you can walk through any darkness, to get to the light of the hope in front of you, that will bring you to the eternal life of peace and joy always.

” The easy way is to never walk away and give up, to get through the troubles we must fight the good fight so this journey then becomes easy for us all”

” To walk away from the troubles we may think is easy, but we are just extending all the division and ugliness further along our paths”

” When the troubles come to us, this is Satan trying to tempt us into the darkness, we need to stand strong against him, so the darkness will give way to the light of salvation and the eternal life of Jesus Christ, for true faith and hope into his peace”

Setting a table we all share

” He said to them. This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many”

MK 14:24

The Priest sets the table at the Alter, as he gets ready to share the most Holy, Body, and Blood of Christ, with us all. Jesus Christ is everywhere around us and all we need to do is, have complete faith and acknowledge his presence, then we shall feel his blood flowing through our hearts, just like the water flows over the falls and into the pool below. When at church and receiving these gifts, this is the physical way of accepting Jesus within us, the spiritual way is, us believing in him with every fiber of our being.

Jesus is everywhere around just like all the different bodies of water we see wherever we may be. No matter which way we travel along our paths, or whichever direction we go at the crossroads, there will be a body of water that we will pass by, Jesus will be with us at every step along this journey and especially when we truly believe with the faith in him as well as ourselves. When we Pray properly, this is the true communication with Jesus that he will communicate back, by giving us his signs, to follow along our paths, these signs we will see as we truly believe in him, so he can lead us to the path of righteousness and away from all the temptations of Satan himself.

With all the ugliness and the hatred we see all around us, should be a bright red flag to us all, that we need to get back to the power of Prayer, get back to sitting with the Priest as he sets the table at the Alter and gets ready to share the gifts with us all. So we then can truly feel the blood of Christ flowing through our hearts and warming our entire body with his love. Then we all can share this love with each other, as the hatred and the ugliness disappears from this journey. When we share the love of Jesus that’s within our hearts, it then becomes that much easier to walk our paths throughout this journey of life, we then will put in the work to clear the paths as we go, making for a smoother walk for all those who will be walking behind us. This world needs more good Shepard’s to lead properly, and will bring us onto the side of good, as right now we have some who say they are Shepards? Who is bringing us deeper into the darkness of evil?

Even though the days before Christ, you had the darkness of evil, just like we have this same darkness now, so very true that the darkness will always be there, as well as the light, the common denominator to all this is, ” We the People”. When you have darkness and light, just like the light of day and the dark of night, it then becomes totally on we the people and not just how we react to them, but how we put forth our actions within the dark or the light, toward each other, as we walk our paths through this journey of life. We all may think we are smarter than one another, we may think that attacking one another is okay? Well, you can clearly see just how this is turning out, no matter where you turn today. The problems of today clearly lie at the feet of each one of us, as with our actions, we don’t think through the ramifications of our actions moving forward. Then as we do not feel the blood of Jesus flowing through our hearts and warming our bodies, we now have lost all feelings of everything all around us.

With the true faith and belief in Jesus Christ as well as ourselves, we will always feel his blood within us, then our bodies will be warm with his love, for then we can share with each other, but when our hearts are cold, we then have nothing to share and even worse, when it comes time for the journey to end, we know have run out of chances to accept the blood of Jesus within us and join him within the world of eternal salvation, which now we enter into the uncertain world of, Purgatory. Within Purgatory, we now enter into the unknown with no true direction, just like as we walked our paths of the journey, without feeling the blood of Christ within our hearts and souls, at least in this journey, we have a chance to fix what we need to fix, in the world of Purgatory, we have no clue if we will have any chances at all. So let’s set our tables at the Alter correctly, so we can truly feel the blood of Christ pass through our hearts and warm our bodies and souls with his love, as he guides us to the path of righteousness, and away from all temptation, so we can share his love with each other, as we walk our paths through this journey of life, in the peace and joy of Jesus Christ. May we never lose sight of the signs that Jesus brings to us, so as we walk through the shadows of darkness, we will always get back to the true light of Jesus Christ.

” The body and blood of Jesus is always within us, we need to acknowledge him to truly feel his love”

” Set the table correctly everyday, to walk further each and every day throughout this journey”

Rest for the Weary

” Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest ‘

Matthew 11:28

Within this fast paced society of today, that is driven by greed and self righteousness, we do become very weary daily, how do you rest or re-charge your body? For some maybe load up on coffee for plenty of caffeine, maybe a mid day power nap? Or maybe even a weekend away? But these things are simply a temporary fix that passes quickly and the weariness returns, as the faith in Jesus Christ is what gives us the true rest deep within our souls, we just need to come to him, so we than can get the true rest our body needs.

With our daily routines comes frustration and chaos within the world around us as well, When we don’t get what we want, we become frustrated, when our jobs push us to our brink, we then become very weary which brings a whole host of chaos to our lives, when we become so tired from the stress, the chaos and the work from the push, we then will enter into burnout and if we do not handle the burnout correctly, we then will become bitter, have a wide variety of health problems, which then brings us much pain and hurt. Within the fast paced society we forget to truly heal ourselves in mind, body and soul, because we get so caught up in the chaos and our minds get lost within the clouds of our judgments, that we forget to take the time for ourselves, to regain the faith in ourselves and Jesus Christ. When we heal properly and when we get the proper rest we need, then not only can we walk freely of our paths on this journey of life, but we can also walk together with each other, without bringing hatred, chaos or ugliness to all that is around us.

We all will walk our own paths but the journey is the same, throughout this journey there will be many events that will tesgt us, there will be many who may cross our paths that will bring us much pain and hurt, as well as many that will come to us to help us when we need help the most, the problem then becomes we ourselves and when we do not be truthful to ourselves, how then can we be truthful with each other? The bigger picture of this is, not being truthful with ourselves, we then can never be truthful with Jesus Christ, which then becomes the number one reason why, we stop going within the house of God, to not just pray, but to hide deep within ourselves and not acknowledge of who we truly are. When we all come together in unity while being truthful of ourselves, with the faith of ourselves and Jesus Christ, then the love within our hearts will shine at it’s brightest, as all the hatred and ugliness disappears from all around us.

Rest is key for us all and not just resting from the work we put in from our jobs, but the rest that will help us heal from all our troubles, the rest that gives us spiritual healing deep within our soul. Getting out deep within Mother Nature and within her peace and serenity, will help us get the true rest we need, so we can heal within our mind, body and soul, from all that troubles us, so we than can move forward better and stronger. Some may want to vacation in an exotic place, with many others around and become stressed as they try to fit in everything in a short period of time, but thats not true rest, as it does nothing but add to the already tension within us. Step outside, step out deep within the woods of nature, listen to the peace and the sounds of nature, the birds singing their songs, the wind passing through the leaves of the tree, the water slapping against the shoreline, even a woodpecker pecking away at the tree. When you get out within Mother Nature and totally relax, you can feel the stress melt away from your body, kind of like a heavy weight being lifted off of your shoulders, spend a week out there and now you will recieve the proper healing within your mind, body and soul, plus you will also will trust yourself and while this takes place, learn to trust in Jesus Christ once again, as he led you to this special place, so you can truly heal as he wants you to. This is the biggest problem in this fast paced society, we don’t trust as we once did for whatever reason? We then hide deep within ourselves as we think we are protecting ourselves from any or further harm, but as the clouds then over come our judgments, we lose sight of who we truly are as we keep the foot on the gas and speed up further the pace throughout this journey, what do not realize is that while we bury deeper of who we truly are, our trust of each other gets buried as well. So as we move forward throughout this journey, we then hurt deeply each other and never show any love or empathy of each other. All this is on us the people of this society and all this can change if only we the people change our ways moving forward, as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

” Rest for the weary isn’t just falling asleep, it’s the healing of the mind, body and soul”

” The power of mother nature can change everything within it, just simply trust in her and the healing will begin”

robin

 

Robin Williams was a special man that walked his path of this journey together with us all. Like Robin, we all hurt deep inside of which we also hide that hurt very different from each other. Depression is what ate him apart from the inside out and he hid it well as he made comedy his thing, so he then made us all laugh while he hurt deep inside. We all have our issues and we all hurt from these issues, now the issues vary from one to another and no one is immune from the issues, just that some may attack them head-on, while others procrastinate and hide them deep inside, which only makes the issues more so than they really need to be.

We all grow into society from a young child, there is also a child within us all as well. This child within us also becomes affected when we struggle from the issues, then as this child grows within us from the pain of the issues, is how we grow on the outside as well. When we don’t nurture and take care of the child within, then we on the outside will never be nurtured and grow into society as healthy as we can be. Depending on the issues we suffer from and how we try to heal ourselves from our issues, this will affect us in many different ways, it will have us become someone we truly are not, but the biggest thing that will change us so……….. that we will bury our true feelings and emotions so deep within, that they will then keep us from feeling anything at all. The child within is key to us all healing properly from whatever issues that will affect most.

It is also so true that we are our own worst enemies and we as a person will hurt another only because we try so hard to be seen as normal as we can, we think that by hurting another then our own pain will go away, but only the opposite happens as we only compound our own issues further, while we never heal properly from what hurts us so. Yes sometimes the pain can be great from the issues, but if we never fix what we need to fix, or heal properly from what hurts us deeply, then not only will the pain and hurt never go away, but that child within us will never grow in a healthy way, leaving us on the outside to struggle and not grow properly within a society of many.

Robin Williams did it his way and choose comedy to hide his true self from us all, we all whether we want to admit it or not, do the same as Robin did and find our own way to hide our true selves from each other, which then leads to a society of brokenness and us all being fake instead of real. We all will go out of our way to hurt each other, but become lazy when it comes to healing ourselves. Before we can help another in any way, we first have to help ourselves, so when we love and respect ourselves, then we can love and respect each other. Plus when we take care of that child within so it can grow healthy, then we can grow healthy and enter a society better and stronger, while we not only help each other but bring respect, love, joy, and dignity to each other as well. We all walk a path through this journey of life, even though the path may not be perfect when we take care of that child within, then we not only can grow in a healthy way, but we can make the path as perfect as perfect can be, so we all can simply love one another instead of hating and hurting one another, which then we all can walk this journey in the peace and happiness we all so deserve.

 

” The child within the child is how we grow either in a healthy way or a very painful and hurtful way”

 

” Robin Williams was a great man that hurt deeply inside but never showed that hurt on the outside to us all”

 

” We all have our issues and no one is immune to these issues, it depends on how you deal with the issues to heal in a healthy way from the issues”

 

 

Life is like a game, it is how you play the game that determines how the game plays you back………

There is a whole lot more to this journey of life than just keeping up with the Jones, or maybe working your 9 to 5, go home, eat, sleep, repeat. With the everyday parts of the journey and simply just wandering and existing through this journey, you are missing out on a good eighty percent of the entire journey. I get the fact that we all need to work to be able to survive in this society, but all work and no play makes for a boring game of life.

True there will be some rough patches throughout this journey of life, just like in this picture, it may seem calm to row the boat along the water, but there will also be rough water to paddle through as well. We all need to spend some time within Mother Nature just so we can see all the true beauty around us, not to mention, get away from such a corrupt, ugly and broken society. We all get so wrapped up within all the crap around us, we then forget who we truly are. Then there will be some that will bring us much pain and hurt, A society is made up of many Individuals and with these Individuals, nobody is perfect, we will make mistakes, but when we do not learn by our wrongs, now you have a very troubled society, that then flows down to each of us, that walk our paths through this journey, within this broken society.

Just within your 9 to 5, there will be many different personalities that will cross your paths, you will either clash with these types, or you just may hit it off and form a Cliche to hang with? Then there are some that are AKA……… A Go-getter and what a go-getter is, someone that wants you to bust your hump so he then can look good every day. ” True success comes when you never mess up a man’s shine”, another words if you make it within this society while never stepping on a man’s toes, now you have achieved true success. Everyone we meet we will never become good friends with, some will just simply be an acquaintance, most of us will have more acquaintances than friends, but that is totally okay, as we are all unique to each other, with many different likes and many different ways to walk through this journey.

” Fat, Dumb and stupid is no way to go through life” this is a quote from the great movie called Animal House, now with that said……….. We need more movies like this but within this world of Political Correction, unfortunately, we may never see another movie like it again.  It is perfectly okay to say what is on your mind and if the one you are saying it to can’t handle the truth, Oh Well!!! Tell them to turn around and walk away. You see a lot of these types within our Government today and also within the left bias media as well, You say something they don’t like and they will get all over you, but say something against another that they like and they will say nothing, plus not too mention the fact that none of them have a clue of how to do their jobs properly, let alone the fact that right now we have the entire Democratic party today, so far in denial, that they all have lost sight of true reality. Then there are the left bias media that are in their pockets and will only keep to their agenda, of printing lies and bringing more unwanted drama to this broken society.

We all walk a path through this journey of life when we walk our paths correctly, this will determine just how smooth the path becomes and when we work at making the path as smooth as the water on a calm day, will determine just how happy we walk through this journey within the true peace and grace of God, while we truly feel the love of his son Jesus Christ which is within us all, deep within our hearts and souls.

 

” Life is like a game it is determined of how you play the game to have true success when the game comes to an end”

 

” There are no guarantees within this journey, but walk the journey correctly and the guarantees will be all around you”

 

” We all want to be successful but when we step on each other’s toes, we will never see true success”

 

” Political Correction has made this society weak, time we change the Fiddler, so we all can get back to dancing happily wherever we may go”

” There is no one who performs a mighty deed in my name who can at the same time speak ill of me”

*** Mk 9:39b***

 

We all walk through this journey of life, the same journey that Jesus walked, when he came to us. Jesus showed us of just how to walk this journey in peace and love, all the ugliness and hatred comes from we the people getting away from our weekly Sunday gatherings, within the walls of the house of God. Without the chance to speak quietly with God, in a setting of peace and joy, it then opens us up to the temptation of the fires of hell, which within this Society and all the ugliness and hatred that surrounds us now, simply proves further that, there are many that have given into that temptation, instead of truly accepting the peace and love of God within us.

Now you don’t always have to enter the house of God and many of us have found other ways to chat with God in their own ways, seeking not only his advice, but to keep the feeling of God’s love alive and strong deep within their hearts and souls. As when we do enter the house of God, we do so with respect, just as though we expect others to enter within our homes showing respect as well. The weekly gathering within the house of God, is us going to church, to not just attend a mass, but take part in the Lord’s prayer, the Lords feast and excepting the blood and body, of his son Jesus Christ, within ourselves, to love and share with all those around us.

It is so easy to simply blend in and get caught up within all the ugliness and hatred around us, the hard part is to except and truly feel the love of God within us, only because we in this society don’t want to be labeled or looked at as, different or a freak, because we then let everything around us affect us in a negative way, staying positive in this ugly society may seem hard, but it is a lot easier than we let on to, The biggest thing attending a mass within the house of God gives us is, keeping the faith in God alive within our souls, so we than can keep alive all hope, as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

Going to mass each week gives us a chance to get back touch with who we truly are, the love, faith and hope, not too mention the accepting of the blood and body of Jesus Christ deep within our hearts and souls. When you receive the body of Christ at communion, you don’t just chew it and swallow it, you let it melt in your mouth, as it then gets absorbed deep into your heart and soul, which then journey’s deeply within your whole being.

When we are all born within this society, we become baptized within the house of God, later we then make our first communions within God’s house, then still later we make our confirmations also within God’s house, we allow so much to happen to us within the walls of the house of God, but yet we still walk away from the house and for some, never to return? The house of God is everything of who we truly are, all the other crap only comes to take us away from who we are and forces us to become someone for who we truly are not.

The house of God keeps us in control of who we truly are, as we strive for the eternal peace, the faith and the love, so we then can always have hope in all we do, as we get to the true path of righteousness within this journey, which then will help us keep the fires of hell and the temptation to succumb to all the ugliness that may try to over come us, throughout this journey of life.

 

” The house of God is so much of who we truly are, but yet we walk away from it like it never existed”

” The house of God brings us love and peace, as the fires of hell brings us temptation and ugliness full of hate and chaos”

” Jesus died on the cross for the salvation of us all, but yet we repay him with the walking away from the house of his father”

” We are told Lord that it is a privilege to suffer on your behalf, may you receive glory in every season of my life, whether I am enjoying success or enduring sorrow”

Philippians 1:29

 

The New England Patriots, Tom Brady and our President Mr. Donald Trump are kind of like this tree on a little Island, all by their selves, simply because they are alone with all their successes, with all around them doing nothing but hate on them, only because they themselves are too lazy to even try to achieve what they have. It is so much easier to just give up and not even try to achieve greatness, than actually putting in a hard days work, so not only to feel good of yourself, but you as well can achieve greatness, as do the New England Patriots, Tom Brady and our President Mr. Donald Trump.

Success doesn’t grow on tree’s, you just do not wake up one day and ” Poof”…….. You are successful with piles of money, true success comes from very hard work and very hard practice, to make the the work turn into success. With hard work comes a lot of blood, sweat and tears and without them, your not truly working hard, not too mention with the hard work also comes great pain and pain that is, physical in nature, as well as a deep psychological pain that is deep within our souls. Nobody will actually welcome any kind of pain, which is why some will try to take the easy way out and hate on those that are successful, to try to make themselves seem better and more powerful than the ones, who actually have put in the hard work and practice, to be truly great at who they have become.

I can remember growing up as a young child and watching the New England Patriots, this was a team that, unlike today where they win more than they lose, the team back then lost more than they won, they had some great Individual player’s, but never actually had the team play great together, much like they do today, a huge part of that is the great culture that the coach has brought to the team, for the last twenty years. True Bill Belichek is responsible for this culture, but Tom Brady and his strong work ethnic, has become a staple of the team for the nineteen years he has been Quarterback of the team. Tom is forty one going into this season, he continues to defy Father time, but you can clearly see that, he works very hard each and every day, so he can stay on top of his game and with the hard work, comes all the success he has had through his career, But even with all Tom’s hard work, there is a small percentage of others that will stop at nothing to hate on him, simply because they themselves are too arrogant and lazy, to actually work as hard as Tom works each and every day.  Let the ” Patriot way” be a lesson to us all, when you work hard and have a great culture in which to learn, than just maybe all of us can achieve greatness, as Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.

President Donald Trump may be very wealthy, but that wealth didn’t just appear on his lap, he had to work hard at earning each and every penny of that wealth. Now some may make a ton of excuses, as to why they are not wealthy like him? but the bottom line is, they are more lazier than the President and do not want to put the work in. Jealousy will get you no where, as through jealousy only comes hate for all those around you. President Trump said before he won the election, that he would drain the swamp, he is doing just what he said, as well as a lot more. The swamp is really all the corruption within the walls of our Government here in America and if you are, as passionate as I in the world of politics, you can clearly see all the corruption, within the walls of Washington D.C. For which President Trump stands in the ocean alone, among a body of water full of sharks and he is doing a great job at fending them all off. Those on the left may hate on him more than those on the right, but they only hate on him, simply because he is making them look bad with his hard work, while they sit on there hands and continue their lazy ways of doing nothing, or keeping their campaign promises.

When we all work hard together, then yes we can make this society better and stronger, then societies of the past. Greatness never came from any kind of hatred, as hatred will only divide and separate, all that is around us. Hatred is the lazy mans way to try to move forward on their paths, while hard work will always bring you to true greatness, so we all can walk our paths through this journey of life, better and stronger, while we all simply just get along in this society of divide, instead of attacking one another and achieving nothing, leaving us all with nothing  as well.

 

” A strong work ethnic will bring us to greatness, while the weak do nothing making them weaker moving forward”

” True greatness breeds strength, joy and happiness with success for all from the fruits of their labor”

” Hard work never comes easy, but it is always better than the alternative.

” The hard work will unite, without it we then will be divided”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Frozen in Time

” If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”

John 1:9

 

” create in me a clean heart o’ God and renew a steadfast spirit within me”

Psalm 51:10

 

Looks like a sheen of ice covering the rock in the middle of the picture, it’s just water frozen in time, as the camera snaps the shot at the perfect time. Just as this mountain stream flows peacefully down the mountain, we to can walk our paths of this journey in peace, when we truly believe and have faith in God, as he forgives us of our sins, so we can then forgive ourselves, to keep moving forward throughout this journey.

The mountain stream is more than water flowing down the mountain, it is a source to quench the thirst of all that is around it, The life of the stream is  of multi purpose, just like if we take a dresser we store clothes in and turn it into a desk for our home office. Everything has a purpose throughout this journey, just that we all have to find just what the purpose is, so we than can flow as peaceful as the stream down the mountain.

When we come back to the Lord, all we really have to do is, truly feel him within our hearts, so the warmth we feel passing through the heart, isn’t just our blood, but the blood of Christ his son, flowing through our hearts, throughout our bodies, filling us with his love, so we than can share that love with each other, while we all walk our paths of this journey, in the peace of God, just like the stream flowing down the mountain.

When you confess to God your sins, you are then wiping clean your slate, as God forgives you moving forward. When the slate is wiped clean, it is like starting over within a new life. When God forgives you, there is no trace of who you used to be, as now through God, you can truly be of who you truly are, so you now can walk your path with confidence and walk this journey in the peace and happiness, you so deserve. When we truly be who we are, keep in touch with our true feelings of love and empathy, there is really no room for any other crap to flow around us, as those obstructions come before us, we will always have the confidence to flow over them, instead of being stuck behind, or being hurt deeply when we fall over them. God is always the common denominator of all the good within this journey and when we don’t have that denominator, is when we get lost within this journey, which then we become confused with much doubt and struggle with different numerators, truly being of who we are not.

 

” Frozen in time is when we are being truly of who we are not, flowing like the stream down the mountain is the cleanse of the clean slate”

” The blood that flows through our heart, does more than give us life, it is the blood of Christ flowing through our bodies with the warmth of  his love, so we than can share with all that is around us”

Every mountain has it’s trails, just as all the paths we walk within this this journey are the trails of life. No matter of the trail or how many times you walk the trail, there will be many changes that come to the trail, some changes can be very drastic and very noticeable, while other changes are minuscule or so small, that you may never notice, unless you look deeply into what you see. All trails never stay the same,  there is always something different no matter how many times you walk the trail,

Just as the trail changes, so do we the people as well. We all have our issues and no one that walks through this journey has no issues, the issues are the same as the the changes of the trail, they can range from very drastic, to very minuscule as well, sometimes the issues are brought on by our own actions, other times they are brought on by those around us. These issues are what changes us over time, the changes can be for the better as we move forward, or the changes can be very negative, that in many ways has us moving backwards and becoming lost within the clouds of our judgments, the changes we go through can and will take us from being of truly who we are, to being someone of who we are not, which will have even ourselves, not recognizing the person for which we are.

Life is full of change all around us, there is nothing that does not go through change. It is how we deal with the change, that determines not just of who we truly are and become, but how we treat each other as we walk our paths of this journey through life. When we are not of who we truly are, which is the love and empathy that is already within our souls, this is when we tend to pull back  from those around us and pull in others of the same, then form a pack that attacks those that are not part of their pack, this also brings ugliness and hatred into the mix, which then complicates things further, instead of making things better moving forward. This is not truly of who we are, as through love and empathy, we actually feel deeply and care deeply, for those around us and will never harm another at any time throughout this journey.

We all have our quirks that pretty much we become accustomed to so much that, we really do not realize when they become an issue, one of the biggest quirks is, the way we speak our words to each other and through this world of political correction, has us all turning against each other and dividing us as a society, then we never really try to fix and change this, but instead point the finger of blame on one another, not just to deflect from ourselves, but to make light of our issues, to focus on the issues of another. With that said……….. I get the fact of some of the older generation taking offense to the way President Trump met and chatted with the Russian leader Mr. Putin, but I am sure President Trump remembers greatly of the past, when all were scared when the alarms sounded,not knowing if the big one was going to be dropped, from the days of the dark cold war with Russia. That was then, this is now, times have changed as well as we the people also. It is very hard to let go of the past, especially when you don’t take the necessary steps, to fix what you need to, so you can move forward better and stronger. President Trump is old school and is set in his ways, but that should never take away the fact that, he is a very smart man that has the best interests for America deep within himself and wants so badly, to improve all our paths within this country so badly. that His actions to this point speak for themselves and we can clearly see that he is improving and living up to his campaign promises. The problem lies deep within ourselves, simply because our judgments have been lost in the clouds within us for so long, we clearly have become very quick to judge other’s and point the finger of blame away from ourselves, as we have totally forgotten how to except responsibility, so we than can fix what we need to fix, then continue moving forward along the trails of our path, through this journey of life.

 

” Change comes to each of us in many ways, it is how we deal with the change that determines of who we become within this journey of life”

” There are many trails within this journey to explore, as each of these trails go through many changes as well”

” We climb the trails of the mountains to explore and see new things, but we do just the opposite as we walk our paths of this journey”

” Before we become quick to judge other’s, let us first look deeply within ourselves and fix our own issues moving forward within this journey”

 

 

 

 

 

A Mother’s love strengthens the family tree

Tree

 

A Mother’s love is what sprouts the roots and builds the foundation of the family tree, a Mother’s love is what warms our soul and makes our hearts beat full of life. We are all bonded together in unity from one common ground and that is, we all have a Mother who loves us deeply, who supports us at every turn, who shows us true strength, when we think all is lost, a Mother’s bond with her family, is the glue that keeps us in tact when things get rough, so we than can find the true strength, that will help us grow and become better and stronger, as we walk our paths of this journey through life.

As the tree starts out from the roots and grows with strength in many different directions, as the branches grow in many different directions, there is one common ground of the tree and that is what’s underground, the roots of the tree, that forms the foundation of the tree. We to like the tree have one common ground that guides us and strengthens us, that common ground is our Mother’s, who carries us for nine months, til we are ready to join the World, in our soft and brittle bodies. A Mother’s love fills us with warmth and gives us the strength to grow and flourish in this World. Jesus was also carried for nine months, from his Mother Mary, she is the one that gave him the strength to walk his journey, while he taught us all, the words of his father……….. God the creator of all who walk a path through this journey of life.

We throughout this journey take so much for granted and yes our Mother’s love is one of those things, sometimes we don’t acknowledge that love until it is too late, then we try to move forward out of regret, which then has us spinning out of control, with no true direction of where to go? But no matter what, a Mother’s love is always within us and all we have to do is, acknowledge it then truly feel it’s warmth deep within our hearts and souls. A Mother’s love is that one common ground, that links us all to each other, as we all have a Mother who loves us, above and beyond all things within this journey.

Even through all the ugliness within this World, when we all acknowledge our Mother’s love within us, then this ugliness will go away simply because, through the love there is no room at the Inn for any ugliness, only the love that we have deep within our hearts and souls, from our Mother’s who carried us for nine months, until we were ready to face this World and ready to grow stronger and better, as we begin to walk a path, through this journey of life.

 

” A Mother’s love is a bond that builds our foundation, for which will never be broken, so we all can be better and stronger moving forward”

” Mary mother of Jesus showed us all of just how strong a Mother’s love is, as she loved and supported her one and only son, throughout his journey of helping and teaching us all”

” We all have a common ground that brings us together in unity and that is, our Mother’s love deep within our hearts and souls”

” A Mother’s love never fails, it never takes a vacation, as it always is within us warming our hearts and souls, keeping us strong moving forward, so we can walk this journey with confidence”
