From George Fox's Epistle 43

[owithadash1point0]

Darling

I heard my own voice

Suddenly whispering out loud

into the silent air

Chanting like in prayer

The first epistle of Ø

Calling for you

My heart is aching

It is you I love

Can you feel it ?

Reaching for you

My fingers are longing

It is you I lust

To touch

Passionately and intensely

I am a greedy soul

Feel all these words I write

I hope you know

All my words belong to you

"Reflections Multiplied"

In the mirror's gaze, we see our soul

A reflection of love, or a heart of coal

As the glass shatters, our truth expands

Multiplying the love, or the hatred's hands

If we behold ourselves with critical eyes

The shards of glass will magnify our demise

But if we gaze with kindness and gentle grace

The mirrored fragments will reflect a loving space

With every break, a new reflection's born

A chance to choose, how our hearts will be sworn

To multiply the love, or the hate we hold

A mirrored maze, where our true selves unfold

Episode 7, EPISODE 7!! Only one more episode, I can't handle that. I want more 😩.

Also

WHERE THE F*CK IS BAYLAN GOING! WHY DID YOU ABANDONED YOUR PADAWAN!?!? WHAT IS IT WITH THESE NEW AGE (traumatised) MASTERS ABANDONING THEIR PADAWANS!

(looking at you Ahsoka 👀👀 because when she said about Anakin "he was a good master" that was her own acceptance of Anakin but there seemed to be something unsaid hanging in the air.... as in "I wasn't" and she is right)

Dominica IV post Epiphaniam

Epistola Evangelium

Romanos 13, 8-10

Léctio Epistolæ beáti Pauli Apóstoli ad Romanos.

Fratres: Némini quidquam debeátis, nisi ut invicem diligátis: qui enim díligit próximum, legem implévit. Nam: non adulterábis: Non occídes: Non furáberis: Non falsum testimónium dices: Non concupísces: et si quod est aliud mandátum in hoc verbo instaurátur: Díliges próximum tuum sicut teípsum. Diléctio próximum malum non operátur. Plenitúdo ergo legis est diléctio.

Mateo 8, 23-27

Sequéntia sancti Evangélii secúundum Matthæum.

In illo tempore: Ascendénte Jesu in navículam, secúti sunt eum discípuli ejus: et ecce motus magnus factus est in mari, ita ut navícula operirétur flúctibus, ipse vero dormiébat. Et accessérunt ad eum discípuli ejus, et suscitavérunt eum, dicéntes: "Dómine, salva nos, perímus!" Et dicit eis Jesus: "Quid tímidi estis, módicæ fidei?" Tunc surgens, imperávit ventis et mari, et facta est tranquíllitas magna. Porro hómines miráti sunt, dicéntes: "Qualis est hic, quia venti et mare obédiunt ei?"

JUMPING JACKS AND PUSH-UPS

What are your favorite physical activities or exercises? This is very easy to do especially when you have no equipment and you have little time. For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. 1st Timothy 4;8 NIV And I actually put my bodily exercise immediately after I say my morning prayer. I…

What 2 Corinthians Is all About and Why You Should Read It

Paul’s letters to the Corinthians are riddled with ministry insights. Their practical input and encouragement for many men who wrestle with the realities of ministry is very relevant. Paul reaches out to the Corinthians. He at one point seems to have received word from Titus, perhaps during the writing of his second letter, that the Corinthians had responded positively to some of his calls to…

Re: Crescent Lake

Dear Inquirer, There are chapters in one’s life best edited out of a public biography, or at least greatly abridged. My time, my dark period, as you are calling it, spent at Crescent Lake is such an episode. I have no wish to make public a period in my life I do not myself dwell on. I have done all I can to forget. I make to myself no recitation, and I have no intent of providing one to…

To all Friends everywhere, scattered abroad, In the Light dwell, which comes from Christ, that with it ye may see Christ, your saviour, that ye may grow up in him, for they who are in him are new creatures.

Why do we see the beauty in others and see nothing but scars,acne and flaws we've

We do not see that we're perfect and tripping in our own way though I know many went through body shaming but It's saddening at times

Colossians Imperatives

Gary Pollard We can learn a lot about an epistle just by looking at its imperatives. An imperative is a command. Paul’s letters become especially clear when listing out the commands in them! There’s more to understanding a letter than this, but it’s a great place to start. For example, here are the imperatives in Colossians:  Follow Christ Only (2.6) Do not Follow Man’s Traditions (2.8) Don’t…

In Epiphania Domini

– Lectio – Evangelium

Léctio Isaíæ Prophétæ.

Surge, illumináre, Jerúsalem: quia venit lumen tuum, et glória Dómini super te orta est. Quia ecce tenébræ opérient terram, et calígo pópulos: super te autem oriétur Dóminius, et glória ejus in te vidébitur. Et ambulábunt gentes in lúmine tuo, et reges in splendóre ortus tui. Leva in circúitui óculos tuos, et vide: omnes isti congregáti sunt, venérunt tibi: fílii tui de longe vénient, et fíliæ tuæ de látere surgent. Tunc vidébis, et áfflues, mirábitur et dilatábitur cor tuum, quando convérsa fúerit ad te multitúdo maris, fortitúdo géntium venerit tibi. Inundátio camelórum opériet te, dromedárii Mádian et Epha: omnes de Saba vénient, aurum et thus deferéntes, et laudem Dómino annuntiántes.

Sequéntia sancti Evangélii secúndum Matthæum.

Cum natus esset Jesus in Béthlehem Juda in diébus Heródis regis, ecce Magi ab Oriénte venérunt Jerosólyman, dicéntes: «Ubi est qui natus est rex Judæórum? Vídmus enim stellam ejus in Oriénte, et vénimus adoráre eum.» Audiens autem Heródes rex, turbátus est, et omnis Jerosólyma cum illo. Et cóngregans omnes príncipes sacerdótum, et scribas pópuli, sciscitabátur ab eis, ubi Christus nascerétur. At illi dixerunt ei: «In Béthlehem Judæ: sic enim scriptum est per Prophétam: “Et tu Béthlehem terra Juda, nequáquam mínima es in princíbus Juda: ex te enim éxiet dux, qui regat pópulum meum Israël.”» Tunc Heródes, clam vocátis Magis, diligénter dídicit ab eis tempus stellæ, quæ appárauit eis: et mittens ilos in Béthlehem dixit: «Ite, et interrogáte dillgénter de puero et cum invenéritis, reuntiáte mihi, ut et ego véniens adórem eum.» Qui cum audíssent regem, abiérunt. Et ecce stella, quam víderant in Oriénte, antecedébat eos, usque dum véniens, staret supra, ubi erat puer. Vidéntes autem stellam, gavísi sunt gáudio magno valde. Et intrántes domum, invenérunt púerum cum María matre ejus, (hic genuflectitur) et procidéntes adoravérunt eum. Et apértis thesáuris suis, obtulérunt ei múnera, aurum, thus, et myrrham. Et responso accépto in somis, ne redírent ad Heródem, per áliam viam revérsi sunt in regiónem suam.
