” Jesus took, Peter, James, and John and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves, and he was transfigured before them, and his clothes became dazzling white, such as no fuller on Earth could bleach them”

MK 9:2-3

The color white has always been associated with pureness. The Bride at a wedding, dressed in a beautiful white gown, symbolizing her pureness in starting a new life with her love. The ground covered with a fresh white snow, that cleanses the Earth for the next season, as Spring then brings the new and filling the Earth with a renewed feeling. When Jesus sacrificed himself on the cross for all of us, he then rose from the dead wearing a white robe, and so white that he then symbolized the color white, as the color of freshness and new.

We of this society through all the ugliness and hatred, have totally become far away from the concept of anything white. We have walked so far away from the house of God, that we forget that Jesus is even inside us warming our hearts with love. The color of white is the light we all need in order to walk the path of righteousness, and escape the darkness and the clutches of Satan. We are within a time of good versus evil, the white is the good and the black is the evil, but if we can not get back to what the color white truly stands for, then we shall never get to see the light at the end of the tunnel. When we look at snow we see yellow or dirty, we never see the real fresh white snow anymore, when it snows out we take on a negative outlook, showing our hate of the snow, which has us become further away from the white of the snow. Then through all the extra marital curriculum out there, and the pre-marriage mentality, we then do not look at the white dress as it should be looked at anymore. True that our so-called Leaders are leading us down a dark slippery slope, and the far left liberal media is pushing us further down the slope, and unless we want to reverse this trend. Then it becomes totally on we the people of this society to stand up to these Bullies, fight our way back up the slippery dark slope, so we than can see the light of the path of righteousness, and then see the color of white so bright, that the darkness will slip away. Yes we must walk through the darkness to get to the light, but when we become stagnant and procrastinate, then the darkness will become overwhelming.

Good versus Evil is all around us within this society, but when you become fixated on one you will never see the other. True that Good will always win out over Evil, but it takes all of us within this society to unite together, so we all can walk our paths through this journey of life, within the peace and happiness that God had envisioned for us. Yes it may seem as if the deck is stacked against us? But when we stay true to who we are, stay true to the faith in ourselves as well as in Jesus Christ, there will always be hope for each one of us so we than can move forward, within the bright white light, that leads us into the path of righteousness. Right now we are within the darkness of the Power’s to be, with the Media keeping the light away with their sick twisted agendas, we need to look past this darkness so we can get to the light that is there waiting for us. We need to be stronger than the darkness, smarter than the darkness, so whatever the darkness does? We keep moving forward away from the darkness, as then the darkness becomes less of, and the true white of the light becomes even brighter in front of us.

This Journey of life comes with many bumps that will bruise us this is fact, but if we let the bruises dictate how we walk through this journey, then we will never truly walk this journey, which then has us become consumed on our paths with all the ugliness and the hatred. We are in total control of our destiny, don’t let the Power’s to be tell you otherwise? Don’t let the left liberal Media engulf you in nothing but darkness. Get back to the house of God, so Jesus can warm your hearts with his love once again, and as we within our souls are warm, then we can share this love with each other moving forward. Then as the warmth becomes infectious among us, we can get back to walking this journey in peace, joy and harmony once again.

” White is the color of good making us pure within the eyes of the Lord”

” Black is the color of Evil bringing us into the darkness with no light in sight”

” White is the style and the grace of God, as the darkness is nothing but evil with many innocent falling to the hands of Satan”

Yet another Lenten journey

” A Leper came to Jesus and kneeling down begged him and said, “if you wish, you can make me clean”. Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand, touched him, and said to him, I do will it, be made clean”

MK 1:40-41

With yet another Lenten journey about to embark and open it’s gates to us all, may we all first take the trek back into the house of God, so we can rekindle our relationship with Jesus, to let our hearts be warmed with his love, to fill our souls, then bring the same warmth and love to one another, as we then take the 40 day journey of Lent, through this journey of life.

As we take this journey of Lent, we do so as we sacrifice something, just as Jesus sacrificed himself, for us all. When Jesus came and walked his journey with us, he did so while showing us all, just how to not only love ourselves, but to love all those around us as well. Jesus is the one who healed us from all the ugliness around us, he healed many from their sicknesses and their diseases, all we need was, to have complete faith in ourselves as well as in him, so we then can have great hope moving forward. Jesus has done a great deal for each of us, now as the journey of Lent is upon us, let us show him Respect, by honoring him, and sacrificing a part of us, through this journey of Lent.

When the Leper stepped forward into the eyes of Jesus, those around him flinched with his looks, but Jesus never flinched as he called him near, The Leper asked Jesus to cleanse him, and Jesus did just that with no regret. Those that were there and witnessed the cleansing, were in complete awe of this, as they to wanted Jesus to heal them moving forward. Even though we of this society have never seen or heard from Jesus, he is there, not only there, but with the faith in him, he gives us hope moving forward, as we walk our paths through this journey. The love of Jesus is always within us, and will never leave us, only that, with our actions and the clouds of our judgments, does then the love become buried deeply, as our hearts then become cold.

We of this society, and we of little faith today, have lost sight of the hope that is in front of us, because of some among us, we are forced to see all the ugliness, forced to bury the love deep within, which then fills our hearts with the cold of hatred, that clouds our judgments, that brings us into denial, without seeing the reality that is right in front of us. We are better than this, we are stronger than this, Jesus didn’t teach us this when he came to us, this is totally on us, the people who walk their paths of this journey, we have become so engulfed with the negatives, that the clouds are stopping us from seeing any positives. It really doesn’t have to be this way, this is not of who we truly are, as the love is always within us, and the hate is a learned behavior, of which we learn it from somewhere, or someone. Today we all have become the Leper of this society, and with this Lenten journey in front of us, may we all then, come before Jesus Christ and kneel, as we then ask him to heal us from this ugliness around us, so we than can dig down deep, get back in touch with his love, let the love warm our hearts once again, so the hate will disappear from us all, share the love with each other. Then as we are back in touch with our true selves, and as we keep the faith of ourselves and Jesus front and center, then the hope will always be there in front of us as well, so we then can move forward in strength, walk our paths to be better, throughout this journey of life, as Jesus showed us, when he came to us and walked his path among us.

The ugliness and the hatred within this society is totally on all of us, this is not of who we truly are. Just like the society back when Jesus came and walked his path, we of this society have let some, engulf us with their power, control and greed grab, that has forced us into the darkness, and away from the light. It is okay to travel through the darkness, as this helps heal us from our troubles, but when we get stuck in the darkness, with no light in sight, this is when we bury the love of Jesus deeply, as we try to minimize the pain, to keep the hurt as little as we can, the darkness keeps us in touch with reality, as the light is right around the corner. Even the light of the day, gives way to the darkness, but only for a short time, as the light comes back even brighter the next day, We are all encompassed within the darkness of the ugliness around us, this darkness does not have to last, so as we enter in this Lenten journey once again, may we all sacrifice something as Jesus did, so at the end of this 40 day journey of Lent, we then, can move into the light, with complete faith in ourselves and Jesus Christ, as the hope brings the love up out of the darkness within us, warms our hearts greatly, so we than can share this love with each other, as we now can walk our paths better and stronger, which then, brings the peace and happiness to us all throughout this journey of life.

” Through the darkness comes the light, just like when there is faith there is also hope”

” When the Leper steps out of the darkness we turn away, which further deepens the love within us”

” The 40 days of Lent is just a small sacrifice, then the sacrifice Jesus made for all throughout this journey”

The Baptism

” This is what John the Baptist proclaimed: One mightier than I is coming after me, I am not worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs of his sandals, I have Baptized you with water, he will Baptize with the Holy Spirit”

MK 1:7-8

This week as the season of Christmas ends, we now recognize the Baptism of Jesus Christ. Now some may wonder why the son of God, needs to be Baptized? As John the Baptist continued to Baptize Jesus, he then realized that as he became baptized, Jesus now will bring the Holy Spirit to the rest of us. The Holy Spirit is within each of us, but if we do not recognize this Spirit, if we do not have complete faith in this Spirit, then the true power of the Holy Spirit, will never come to reach it’s full potential. This Holy Spirit within us, when we truly have faith in it, Jesus Christ, and ourselves, the sky is the limit to what we can do, when we recognize the Holy Spirit and stay true to our faith, this is how we become better and stronger, moving forward throughout this journey of life.

Everything has a reason and everything has a purpose, it is up to each of us to find that reason and purpose, without the true power of the Holy Spirit within us, when we do not find the reason or the purpose, we will simply be wandering throughout this journey. We all wonder of this ” Higher Power” we hear about? This higher power is the Holy Spirit that is within us, it is the power of Jesus that helps us be better and stronger, and even during times that we think all is lost. Without the faith in Jesus Christ nor the Holy Spirit, then there will be so much unrest around us, the hatred, the ugliness, and the corruption, these are the main ingredients of the fact that, the faith has slipped away, as we have wandered away from the house of God.

There are so many today that have wandered away from the house of God, and the current situation we are all in, within this society, proves just that. The trust, the accountability, the integrity, these are just a few that is lost today, Without the faith, we will never have any hope, but as some around us try to exploit the power, control and greed, the hope will seem non existent. Even as everything seems so bleak, we should never lose sight of faith, as through faith, it will open so many doors, and doors we thought never existed.

Just as Jesus got Baptized, we to get Baptized as we enter into this world, as Jesus grew up in this world like we ourselves, he taught us many things, but the biggest was how to love each other, and through that love how to treat each other with respect and dignity, but unfortunately, like everything else we touch, it starts out great, but over time, it brings much hatred and ugliness, which is nothing more than Satan trying to control us, but as Jesus himself was tempted by Satan, we to get tempted, and Jesus showed us how to resist the temptation, to move forward better and stronger.

It’s all about good versus evil, we get baptized into this world, so the good will be within us, this evil that is Satan is not within us, and has to be learned over time, but when we stay true to who we are, stay strong in faith to Jesus and ourselves, we will always have hope moving forward. As long as we always have hope, we then will always stay true to ourselves, so we can be at peace and share our love with each other. When we stopped entering the house of God, this is were we then became disconnected from the Holy Spirit, which opened us up to the evil that is Satan. We all need to cleanse ourselves again as the power of Baptism does, so we can be re-born and truly follow Jesus, to the path of righteousness, where we can have true peace and love, to move forward better and stronger.

” Baptism is where we are cleansed and enter into the land of God, then let the love of Jesus warm our hearts”

” The power of the Holy Spirit within us, helps us keep the faith, to have hope, to be better and stronger”

Say what you want, say what you mean, but never speak for or of another……….

This is one of the best quotes of my life so far. The late Stuart Scott said this as he was being honored at one of the Espy awards shows before Cancer took him from us. You can take the word Cancer out of this quote, replace it with the word Life, now you have a totally different meaning, which is why this quote is so good, it is very versatile in that way. Life is definitely of what you make of it, if you make it hard, it will be hard in return, if you walk this journey correctly and with respect always, now life will be easier, throughout that path you have chosen.

It is perfectly okay to say what you want, and say what you mean, but when you speak Ill of another, or even worse speak for another, now you are doing nothing but create a lot of unwanted drama around the rest of us. When you speak for another and especially without consulting with them, then how do you know they truly mean what you have said? This is not just what is wrong within this society, this is totally what is wrong within the walls of all the media publications out there as well. These Individuals within the media spend big money, to go to the best schools, so they can say they have a degree in Journalism, but what good is the degree, when you work for a publication that only wants you to keep to an agenda? Right now this agenda of the media is all about, speaking Ill of some, while they spread lies and untruths of others. If you do not agree with their twisted philosophies, then you become one of the ones for which they speak Ill of, this is totally what is wrong with this society, this is what we all need to fix, as we move forward throughout this journey of life.

Then there is this thing called Political Correction which you can not say anything of anybody without offending someone, I say you know what you can do with this Political Correction…..? This has totally made this society weak and made us all fear everything that we may say, even if what we say may be correct, or even better, maybe what we need to fix this society, to be better and stronger moving forward. Yes, you do need to hear the truth, even if that truth hurts you and brings great pain, but if you deal with the pain and hurt correctly, it will only make you that much stronger moving forward.

The spoken word is just that, they are words we speak out of our mouths, they are also our opinions of what may be going on around us, now some may not research properly before they speak their words, which then becomes an even bigger issue that will affect us all, then there are some, like the ones who create these agendas, that will force their workers to use the spoken word in the wrong way, especially if the agenda creator did not properly do his/her research? With all the bad research out there, no wonder why the spoken word has become so…. screwed up and off point.

Ever since Eve told Adam to eat that forbidden fruit, this is what started all the societies within this journey of life, to walk on eggshells, as the spoken words have become like a bullet out of a gun, simply because, and some may disagree, which is fine, but words do cause great pain and hurt, but the right words can heal and bring us all to peace. Jesus showed us all when he walked this journey here with us, that words that come from the heart with love, will help us heal and be at peace, while words that are fake, that only get spoken out of hate, will totally hurt as the pain becomes great, we shouldn’t have to watch what we say all the time, only because, when we speak correctly and from the heart, then these words not only can heal us, but they will help us all become better and stronger, as we walk our paths, through this journey of life.

” There are many quotes out there and many we may remember, but a great quote will forever stand the test of time”

” The spoken word can be the best thing we will ever say, but they can also bring great pain and hurt”

Family Time

” For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you prepared in the sight of all the peoples”.

*** LK 2:30-31***

With yet another Christmas in our rear view mirror and a New Year lurking in our future, let’s look a bit deeper into what is Christmas. Christmas is a whole lot more then giving gifts or even receiving gifts, Christmas is the birth of Jesus Christ and even further, it is the creation of a family between Mary, Joseph, and Jesus. When Jesus came and walked his path here with us, we all focused on him, while Mary and Joseph went to the back burner of life, but if you took the time to notice, both of them were never to far from their son. Even at the time of death for Jesus, his mother Mary was right there with her son, while her love spoke loudly among us all. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph became a family when Jesus was born, they then built that strong foundation and bond that family is, which today we have gotten away from, and all the ugliness and hatred around us today, proves even further, of just how much we have swayed away from what a true family is.

The last few decades we as a society have wandered away from the true meaning of family, we have wandered so far away that, families have become broken, and through all the divorces, there is a whole generation that have grown up with only one parent, making them incomplete. True of the family foundation being solid and strong, but over time and without tending to the decay of the foundation, it then will crumble and fall, which is what we are seeing, with all the ugliness and the hatred around us. Family is what helps us all grow into a society of many, each parent in their own way, teaches everything we need to know to be better and stronger with each step moving forward, The Mother will teach us love, compassion as well as many other factors, the Father will teach us strength, respect as well as many other factors, we need both to be complete, when one is missing, we then are incomplete, the foundation then stops being built, and is so weak, that it does not take much to corrupt who we are.

Our family here on Earth is, a Mother, a Father and Siblings, our spiritual family encompasses a whole lot more, as each of us are brothers and sisters within the society of God. This spiritual family is a lot bigger then our family here on Earth, the family foundation starts being built within our family here on Earth, then continues as we grow within the society, so when we are within a broken family and the foundation stops being built, now we have no basis to build from within the society of many. With all the problems and the troubles that the year 2020 has brought to us all, is a bi product from the last 10+ years, and the fact that we all have been suffering from the effects of all the broken families around us. Now the family you are in may be complete and you may be complete, but all the other families around us and especially the broken ones, whether we want to admit it or not, have effected each of us, in one way shape or form.

Nothing really ever lasts and there will be much change all around us, just like the rock in this picture, you think a rock is solid? but when the rock is submerged in the water for a long time, and then becomes free from the water and into the rays of the sun, it can break in two just like this one. Well the family foundation is much like this rock and needs constant work all the time, to keep it strong and to stand up to the test of time. Each member of the family has their own part in building the foundation, and when one of those parts are missing, now the building stops and the incompletion begins, leaving all to try to find something to fill the void, from the broken family foundation.

Yes it is true that we can succeed along this journey with only one parent, but to truly succeed along this journey, and to feel totally complete as we walk our path of this journey, it takes a complete family, for each of us to feel complete, as we grow into a society of many. Throughout the years all our lives have changed in a negative way, now it is on we the people, that can change it back in a positive way, and in a way that Jesus showed us here on his journey, right now we are all hurting with all this negative change, the time is now to change positively, so we all can get back to peace and happiness, and away from all this ugliness and hatred. We all walk our paths through this journey of life, and it starts with family helping us grow correctly within the society of many.

” Family Time whether spiritual or Earthly, has a foundation to nurture and grow”

” The birth of Jesus Christ brought forth the feeling of family and the building of the family foundation”

Having Faith and truly Believing

” And the Angel said to her in reply, the Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the most high will overshadow you, therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the son of God”

” For today in the city of David a savior has been born for you who is Christ and Lord”

Within this society of today, do we truly have faith? I mean not just to have the faith to leave for work and return home later, but do we truly have the faith that everything happens for a reason, and yes we can over come whatever that may cross our paths, and when we do, then there will always be hope for us all, as we walk this journey of life. Belief…. this is something we do totally within our hearts, it is not just a word that is thrown out there, just to make like we understand something, when you truly believe 100% with your heart, there is no copy, or there is no faking the belief, because when you truly believe, not only will the faith be there, but there will always be hope as we move forward along our paths, of this journey through life.

True without faith there is no hope, also true that with no belief, there will be no faith or hope, which then leaves us all empty as we walk our paths of this journey through life. There are so many factors throughout this journey, true it can get overwhelming at times, we can lose our way and become lost, as then we are just wandering and not walking as we should. When we truly believe in something, we will always have the faith in that something, which then gives us great hope moving forward along our paths,

Jesus Christ is a great example of true belief, cause when we have complete faith within our hearts and souls for Jesus Christ, then not only can we feel his love within us, but he will help strengthen our faith in him, as he brings us great hope moving forward. True some may say we never see him, but when you truly believe in Jesus Christ, then we shall see the signs he leaves us, as we then discover the faith in not just ourselves, but the faith in Jesus Christ as well, which then leads us to great hope moving forward, which then helps this journey seem not as tough as we sometimes make it out to be. We may never see Jesus among us, but the signs he sends us to see, are all around us, which is why we always need to look deeply at what we see, because when we do not, this is when we will never see the signs, which then leads to zero belief, followed by no faith and the hope will never come to us throughout this journey.

This time of the year, the time of Christmas, is truly the most magical time and the most precious time as well. It is the birth of our savior Jesus Christ, it brings forth the belief in him, so we can truly feel his love within our hearts and souls, then with the belief the faith will then come, and not just in him, but in ourselves as well, while we truly see the signs that Jesus brings to each of us, then as our faith becomes stronger, then the hope we will find right in front of us, leading us into the path of righteousness. Even through the darkest of times, when we find that path of righteousness, the light of Jesus Christ will always light our way, throughout this journey of life. Jesus Christ is always there, he is always within us no matter what, it is us who lose the belief, which gives us no faith, to see no hope as we walk our paths of this journey through life.

” Merry Christmas to all and to all may you totally have the belief in Jesus Christ, which leads you to the faith in yourself and him, while the hope is in front of you”

” Jesus Christ is within us all, which is why we need to look deeply into what we see all the time throughout this journey”

” The three factors in life that we all need to be conscious of always, belief, faith, and hope”

It’s the miracles and having Faith

by bowlingchef, posted in america, annunciation parish, annunciation parish of gardner, annunciationgardner.org, annunciationparishgardner,com, blogging, boston magazine, bostons title town talk, bowlingchef, christianity, donald trump, ewtn, gardner catholics, gardner news, gardnercatholics, gardnercatholics.com, Uncategorized

” Do you believe in miracles”, those famous words from Al Michael’s of the 1980 USA hockey team victory over the great Russian team. I am talking of different kind of miracle, a miracle that comes to each of us and in a spiritual way. With these miracles comes faith and when there is faith, there is always hope moving forward. This season of Christmas in other words the miracle season, when you have true faith in your beliefs, you just never know what miracle awaits you? Miracles do happen, just that we don’t have the true faith, to recognize them when they do happen, which then leaves us with no hope moving forward.

Now with all the ugliness, power hungry and greediness going on all around us, not to mention the corrupt left bias media only publishing what ” they” want us to know, it is very easy for us to get consumed with all the negativity, and totally forget of who we truly are, totally become lost as we walk our paths of this journey, totally lose all faith in everything around, that then leaves us with no hope, and when the hope and faith are not there, then we become filled with emptiness and feel incomplete, then try to keep walking our paths, but all we are really doing is wandering and trying to find our faith to then have the hope in all we do.

Now as we embark on yet another Christmas season, let us all truly get back to who we are, let us all truly feel the love of Jesus Christ within our hearts, as in todays society our hearts have become cold from all the ugliness and the choices of some, who are trying to take us away from the house of the Lord. Those same ones are also trying to divide us, as they so desperately try to seek all the power from us all and control us as well. When we stay true to who we are, then Jesus will never leave us no matter who tries to separate us? That warm feeling in your heart, that is Jesus keeping us from the cold and the darkness that Satan wants to bring us, as long as the warmth fills our hearts, then the faith is always there, which means the hope is as well, when there is faith in ourselves and in Jesus Christ, there will always be a chance for that special miracle we long for, miracles just do not happen, they come to us from Jesus Christ, so with the faith, he will bring hope to us all.

Jesus Christ is everywhere and when we have true faith in him, he will then appear to us in many ways, just like these two pictures I captured, to some may seem like the roots of a tree in the water, but to one with true faith, this is the crown that was a top the head of Jesus as he carried the cross, then the other picture to some may be just a tree stump? To one with true faith, you will see the face of Jesus, with the crown a top his head. Jesus is all around us, and yes I agree, with all this ugliness around us, then where is he? All we need to do is, dig down deep within our soul, get to that special place that only you and Jesus know of, so he can help us heal properly of our troubles, as we then truly get back in touch with our true feelings and emotions, which will then help Jesus warm our hearts with his love, so we than can share that love with each other. Every season of Christmas is full of many miracles, we just need true faith, to have any hope of the miracle, Jesus only wants the good to come to us all, he never wishes Ill on any of us, the wishing of any Evil to come to any of us, comes totally from each one of us. We are all so consumed with this power, control and greed, that the clouds of our judgments have become so thick, we can not see clearly of what is in front of us, so we are letting the so called ” powers to be” control us, instead of us, having the true faith in ourselves and Jesus Christ, keeping alive the hope, so we then can be aware of any kind of miracle that may come to us. Miracles are real and they do happen, just that we all need the true faith, keeping alive the hope for the miracle to happen.

” Miracles are real and they do happen, just that they need true faith keeping alive the hope of them happening”

” Jesus Christ is everywhere and he will come to us all, we just need the faith in ourselves as well as him to feel his love within us”

” Christmas is a lot more than receiving any gift, it is the warmth of love and the true faith which gives us hope along this journey”

You think by the title I may write of the swamp within Washington DC? Why waste two great pictures within Mother Nature. Even Mother Nature has swamps within it, the difference is, mother nature takes care of them so they can thrive, within Washington DC, the ones within that swamp only takes care of themselves and totally forgets of all those around them. Not that I want many getting out within mother nature to take away all the beauty I come across on my journey’s, but within this screwed up society only proves further that, a high percentage of us, have totally forgotten and taken for granted, all the true beauty within mother nature.

No matter where you go within mother nature, there is so much beauty with every turn, not just all the plant life, or the landscapes, but there are many wild animals that roam within mother nature, these animals call mother nature their home, just like we have homes and want others to respect our homes, we to need to respect their homes, while we are out there within mother nature. The beauty of mother nature is everywhere around us, even as we drive to our jobs, but sadly we take this so for granted, that we do not look at it as being within mother nature, instead, because we are so caught up in all the ugliness, we see no beauty.

With another Veterans day upon us, let us take the time to thank a Veteran, for it is the veterans that keep us free to do as we want within this country, there are some that do show respect to our Veterans, but there are some who totally take them for granted, as not only do they not thank a Veteran, but they can’t see what they do for each and every one of us. A real Veteran will never see a swamp and see it as ugly, he will do what he has to, in order to clean it, so it’s future will be nothing but beauty for all.

“The one who had received five talents came forward bringing the additional five. He said, Master, you gave me five talents. See, I have made five more”

Mt: 25;20

We all in this society and as we walk through this journey, have special talents, we all have a purpose as we walk this journey, but unless we find that purpose, we will never unlock the talents that are within us, and without the purpose, we then will never not only show our talents, but we will never bring our talents to the next level, like building more talents upon the talents that are already within us. In order to truly find your purpose and your talents, you need the confidence within you and the confidence in Jesus Christ, so you can move forward along this journey and find that purpose, the problem within this society is a lot of us have lost that confidence and have lost of who we truly are, while we are all lost and within the clouds of our judgments, we will never see any beauty around us, we become full of fear that brings us much pain, as we never see us for who we are, we will never see anything around for what it truly is as well.

This journey through life is like that when we do not take care of ourselves as we should, when we truly take care of ourselves, fix what we need to fix, not only will we ourselves be better moving forward, everything around us will become better as well. This year of 2020 has been a very challenging year in so many different ways, with all the ugliness that has come across all our paths through this journey, proves that we all need to take care of ourselves, so we then move forward with each other, to become better and stronger throughout this journey of life.

When we take care of ourselves and see the talents within us that Jesus has supplied us with, we will then find that confidence that he sees in us, and bring that confidence out, to let the talents shine brightly as we walk our paths, as now those talents will help us achieve many more talents throughout our lives. The success for each of us as we walk our paths through this journey of life is endless, with the confidence in ourselves as well as Jesus Christ, then all our talents will shine as bright as the sun on it’s best day, which will then have us find many more talents to shine even brighter, so we all can move forward in the peace and happiness, that Jesus showed us when he came and walked this journey here with us.

We all have talents within us, these talents will help us find our purpose here within this journey, then as we find this purpose and our talents within, we will then find that there are many more talents for us to unlock within this journey as well, all we need is to have that confidence in ourselves, that confidence in Jesus Christ as well, so as we walk this journey through life, then the true success for each of us will be endless and all this ugliness we see today will disappear, as there will be no room for it to exist anymore. Just as Mother Nature has it’s true beauty for us to see, there is no better beauty than the beauty within each of us, especially when we are confident, release our true talents, and have found our purpose in life, as we walk our paths through this journey of life.

” A true talent goes a lot deeper then any kind of sporting or singing type of talent”

” The beauty of mother nature is definitely beautiful, but the beauty within us all is so much more precious and special”

The light of Jesus Christ is with us all throughout this journey of life

The light of Jesus Christ is within all our souls and beats within our hearts, Jesus is always there when we need, he will always heal us of our troubles. Jesus came and walked this journey here with us while sharing his love with us all, he sacrificed and died for each of us, so we can be free, not just as we walk our paths through this journey, but free of anything that we may encounter along this journey. This journey may not be perfect, we may not be perfect, but when we acknowledge Jesus Christ within us, this journey will be as close to perfect as perfect can be.

The darkness that encompasses us all today within this society, only comes to us as we have lost touch with the love of Jesus within our hearts, we have strayed away from the house of the Lord and put ourselves above Jesus Christ. The result of all this crap around us today, is a direct result of the fact that we all have lost the feeling of the love of Jesus within our hearts and souls. Our hearts have become cold towards each other as we only think of ourselves and put ourselves above one another, this is not what Jesus taught us when he walked this journey here with us, The problem of this society lies within each us and the solution is also within us, if only we could truly feel the love of Jesus within our hearts and souls. Within this fast paced society, where we want everything now and become impatient, most do not visit the house of God anymore, which the excuse ” I am too busy”, is the excuse of the day, instead of making a weekly trip and praying to Jesus, so we can heal ourselves of our troubles, when we do not heal properly, now we suppress and bury our troubles and try to move forward, but when we suppress we are only delaying til a later time, just we do not realize it at the time. Faith is a key component in our lives, not just faith in ourselves, but having the complete faith in Jesus Christ, as we walk our paths of this journey through life. When we lose the faith and have no confidence in ourselves, it is Jesus that helps us find it, so we than can have hope moving forward, as when there is faith there will always be hope.

We may walk many paths through this journey, but there is only one journey in our lives as we all have the same beginning and the same ending. The paths may change as other variables may change in our lives, these variables will come to us in many different ways, with some bringing much pain and hurt, there are many of us feeling the pain and hurt, and we all deal with it in our own way, we never talk to anybody of what ails us, because we don’t want to admit to any weakness, but as they say talk is cheap, on the contrary, talk will make us all rich, as it heals us within our souls, so we can keep moving forward better and stronger. For the most part, the pain and hurt will keep us from being true to ourselves as well as each other, it will have us hide within and become someone for who we truly are not, there are many today who are hurting, but we will never know, as they keep to themselves in this world of fast pace.

This journey may have many variables, but when we keep the variables to a minimum, this journey will then reward us with a journey well walked, Throughout this journey, Jesus is always within us no matter of what path we may walk, we just need to acknowledge him, so he than can help us heal from all our troubles. Jesus can’t help us unless we acknowledge him and when we distent ourselves from him, that is when our confidence goes away and the troubles seem to get bigger then they really are, which then the light turns to darkness and we become cold to everything around us.

” The light turns to darkness, then with faith and hope the darkness will then go back to the bright lights, that light up our paths moving forward”

” Talk is never cheap as true talk will help us become even richer then any amount of money will bring us to”

What a difference a day makes

” Today we work on now, as yesterday is in the past, tomorrow may never come, as we should never live for tomorrow to escape yesterday, so just simply live in the present as each day comes”

One day may bring calm and clear skies, as the next day will bring clouds, a storm, with some rough water, everyday may never be a given, but what is a given, is the way we walk our paths, through this journey of life. No matter on how much the deck may get stacked against us from time to time, there is nothing we can not do throughout this journey, As the days shift from tomorrow to yesterday, and as time goes by like the wind going through the leaves on a tree, when we walk our paths correctly and within the present, this journey will always be, a journey of fulfillment and enrichment, as we strive to be better and stronger moving forward.

There will be many things that cross our paths, these things will bring much chaos and ugliness, that will bring to us real pain and hurt, just like the change in the weather and the sights within Mother Nature, change is one of those things that comes along our paths and many times at that, change is that thing that unless we learn to adapt to it, it will further the chaos and the ugliness, change will have us live within the yesterday’s and never look forward to any of the tomorrow’s, then as it clouds our judgments within our minds, never have us live within the present that today brings.

Yesterday is the past, tomorrow is never promised, but today is what we can control now, no matter what we may be going through along our paths, when we stay strong and have complete faith in who we truly are, there is nothing we can not do, there is nothing that will come across our path that will bring us down, when we keep the faith in ourselves as well as Jesus Christ, and when we adapt to change, this journey we walk, will always be as beautiful as the beauty of Mother Nature.

The quiet seclusion of being one with mother nature will, help us heal ourselves from our troubles, especially when that quietness is along the shoreline of a rocky beach, with the sounds of nature calming our minds and clearing away the clouds within, so we can see clearly moving forward within the future. The wind passing through the tree’s and whistling into our ears, kind of like the sound of music from a jukebox, the loons swimming in the lake and chatting with their peers, an Eagle soaring through the wild blue yonder, with the greatest of ease, maybe even a moose coming out of the woods to the water for it’s daily splash, this is how we truly relax and heal ourselves from all that pains us so. Just as change comes to us, and how we change over time, so does all within mother nature change, which is why we need to adapt to all change, so we can walk our paths through this journey of life, in the peace and happiness that Jesus Christ brought to us within his journey here with us, we just have to let go of the yesterdays, do not expect any of the tomorrows, and just live within the present, as we become better and stronger moving forward.

” We should only look back to heal ourselves of our troubles. then we can see further of what is in front of us”

” The past will always be the past, as the future will always be something that hasn’t happened yet, while the present is the one thing that we can control now”
