CHRIST OUR CORNER STONE

Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Ephesians 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto a holy temple in Lord:

Ephesians 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for habitation of God through the Spirit.

"I want to say pure hearts where they make a place, there where the Son of God could rest His head, when the breed of the foxes would no longer have a home in hearts. The Word says to them: all these powers of the earth against which man leads his struggle, are only small foxes, cunning but pitiful if compared to your power. If you master them, then our vineyard, that is to say human nature, will cover its own beauty, and it will prelude to the clusters by the flowers of virtuous life."

~ Saint Gregory of Nyssa, The little foxes, Spiritual writings "From Glory to Glory"

Good Morning!☀️

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3:18

Man was created in the image of God:

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:27

Sin and death marred that image, and man got farther away from the reflection of God that he was created to be. In confessing our sins and turning to Christ as the payment for our sin and victor over death, the veil that blocked the glory of God being seen in us was lifted. Instead of drifting farther away from the reflection of God we are to be, we are now conforming more and more to that image, moving from glory to glory.

We are reminded that this is the work of the Spirit within us and not of our own efforts. As we walk in obedience and life, we are changed increasingly into the reflection of God we were created to be!

make a child a terrorist?

is terrorism about resisting oppression? is terrorism about demanding your birthright to live safely and peacefully in your homeland? is terrorism about hating the killers of your family, your friends and your people?

accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against those fighting for liberation and sovereignty and dignity. the french settlers called the algerians terrorists. the indian government calls the kashmiris terrorists. the pakistani army calls pashtun activists terrorists. the turkish government calls the kurds terrorists. apartheid south africa called nelson mandela a terrorist. americans called the vietcong and the black panthers terrorists. the israelis call the palestinians terrorists. all oppressive regimes are connected. all oppressed people are connected. injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

Scary Sunset.

I'm concepting things way outta order in this story, but I'm sure you can piece things together. Context is for a storybeat where, after defeating and capturing Adagio (thus having all three sirens in her possession), Sunset enacts her revenge plot to release the sirens on Canterlot as Thea discovers she's been manipulated. In a confrontation, the two scuffle and fight over the siren orbs while Sunset struggles with her conflicting wants and emotions.

[id: It’s a drawing of Harley Quinn where she is depicted as a Black woman with pale skin and locs which are tied into pigtails. She wears a black sports bra, a mesh top, pink-purple jeans, a large belt, a pair of orange-lensed goggles, and a jacket which is half pink, half black. In the drawing, she is holding a bat which reads “GOOD NIGHT” over her shoulders. /end id]

It is driving me…cuckoo bananas that Daniel uses his job as a socially acceptable way to chase the high he used to get from drugs and Armand not only is fully aware of this, but he himself then PROVIDES that very high when Daniel beats him and exposes his lies to Louis.
