Corellas.

On a cool

Summer's evening,

a hundred

white corellas.

Beauty.

                   

God embodies the most beautiful qualities:

Mercy, forgiveness, compassion, fidelity, affection, goodness, kindness, intelligence, imagination, understanding, and love.....

All of these qualities are aspects of Love.

And all of these things are part of God.

Devotion.

                            

Devotion is fidelity in reverence or respect.

To be devoted to God is to be loyal and full of respect.

But what is it we are respecting?

God's mercy, God's faithfulness, God's steadfast love.

This is not about fear of violence or punishment.

This is about deep admiration for God's qualities.

God is forgiving, God is trustworthy, God is non-violent.
He is patient, understanding, beautiful.
God is transcendent and sublime.

He does not wish to hurt us or even boss us around.

He wishes the best for us.

He gives us joy and peace.

But this is not a bargain.
We are not to barter with God.

It is Love freely given.

We are in awe of that.

Buried Alive.

                                     

To a man's man spiritual qualities look like weakness.

Showing compassion, forgiveness, consideration, even love is anathema to him.

These are like chinks in his armor.
And you can't afford to show chinks in this world.

His win at all costs mentality makes him corrupt himself even to the point of using violence and torture.

But below the tough guy facade, below the ego maniac, below the sexual athlete, and below the fears that created them lies a heart that is crying out for love.

Deep, deep down there is someone totally different.

It is him you should seek.

Finding the Words.

                            

What words can I use to inform you?

Freedom!

You are free to do whatever you like.

I am not trying to tell you what to do.

But it should be remembered that not everyone out there has your best interests at heart.

Money motivates many.

They will try to get you to spend your money.

Some will try to addict you.

Some will try to kill you.

There are those in our popular culture who will tempt you and try to get you into hell.

Why?

Because they have sold their souls for fame and fortune.
They do the devil's work.

Mostly rock stars, but some movie stars, directors, authors, and sportsmen.

You don't believe in the devil?

Neither do I.

But they do and they act accordingly.

It's a huge joke.

We all end up in hell.
Ha! Ha!

But there is no hell in reality.
And God does not punish us.

So find a Liberal Church.

Or go into your room and close the door.

If you pray to God He will hear you.

Millennials.

                            

It has begun.

The quest for the minds of the next generation.

They have been dubbed the Millennials.

And there are already problems with pornography and sexting.

I have noticed some psychedelic influences.

Drugs!

Whole generations have suffered mental illness and ruin through drugs.

With planets in Aquarius the negative interpretations of drugs and rebellion are prominent.

Their rock stars will lead them into death and destruction if we cannot alert them to the danger.

What is needed is alternative messages.
Positive messages of understanding and love.

If we can point out the negative influences in the popular culture they may rebel against them.  They may embrace reactionary positivism.

But how to do this?

This is our task.

Black and White.

                                     

When we think of evil we think of black, darkness, shadow etc..

But evil can be disguised as good: white, light, shining etc..

It can even be both at once.

How many images have we seen with one word right way up and another upside down, or one letter backwards and the rest forwards?

This is Satanic magic - backwards and upside down.

The upright images are a cover up.
They make evil look good.

So beware of images which use black and white, upside down and upright, backwards and forwards.

They are out to deceive you.
