I just know songbird and joe go FERAL after not seeing each other for a while!! Like they were both busy a good two months of being away from each other… she was traveling he had some things to get done but once they crossed paths again oh my god the bed HATES to see them coming. I just know they have the most romantic, slow, deep, mouth-foaming, eye-rolling, filthy-worded intimate time known to mankind. Hands? Everywhere. Walls? Vibrating. Back? Arched. They physically can't get enough a round after a round and another round? yeah they’re not holding back🤭

a/n: feeling THINGS while writing this. ily for this one anon, i was thinking about this all day <3

oh my god YES YES YESSSS. you get it. YOU GET IT!!!!

absolutely. this is so them. but they’ve never actually been apart for that long. honestly, two months? it’s laughable. it’s cruel. they’d crumble by week two, if not sooner. joe’s antsy, checking flight prices at two in the morning; she’s curled up in hotel beds that feel too big and too cold without him. one of them would cave—always—and book the next red-eye without a second thought, showing up with tired eyes and open arms just to be back where they belong...together.

early on, before she moved in with him, she was constantly on the move—slipping through cities under the radar. new york, her hometown, sometimes london. music things, spending time with family and friends, slowly rebuilding her life. and joe couldn’t come along, not during the season. so they clung to phone calls and blurry facetimes, sending selfies and voice notes and little gifts to bridge the space between them. they counted every day. every hour. because being apart? it wasn’t just lonely—it was unnatural.

and the second she’s back in cincy with him?

it’s over.

for example—she went to her london house with some of her best friends for two weeks to celebrate her best friend’s engagement in october. it was supposed to be this magical, dreamy, all-girls getaway. the streets of notting hill were bright and busy, cafes buzzing with life, flower stalls on every corner, and her apartment penthouse above the bookstore was packed with laughter and champagne corks popping. they went shopping on oxford street, took polaroids in front of pastel townhouses, spent lazy afternoons in hyde park, and danced until the sun rose in tiny clubs tucked beneath the city.

she loved it—loved the way her girls filled the space with joy, how she got to celebrate love with them, how her cheeks hurt from smiling. and god knows she needed to feel that after everything she’d went through, and was still going through. 

but every time she slipped away for a second—on the balcony in the cool evening air or under the covers when the room finally went quiet—she ached for him.

because nothing about that trip, no matter how lovely, felt complete without joe.

two weeks in london with her best friends sounds dreamy on paper, but for them? for her and joe? it’s actual torture.

the nights?

the nights were the worst.

because that bed they used to share when joe was here briefly over the summer? it felt empty without his broad frame pressed behind her. she’d wake up reaching for him, only to find cool sheets and silence. and yeah, her friends teased her for how often she checked her phone, how often she snuck off to take a call or send a voice note, but she couldn’t help it. she missed him so much.

and joe? back in cincy, restless as hell. he couldn’t sleep. couldn’t even sit still. kept pacing the house in his gray sweats, wearing the hat she left behind like it was armor. he’d fall asleep with his phone in hand, only to wake up to grainy 2 am facetime calls from her with that soft, sleepy “hi, baby” that cracked him open every time.

they tried to stay normal. tried to play it cool. but by day ten?

they were spiraling.

joe’s texts were getting filthier by the hour, all groaned out “i miss your mouth” and “i’d give anything to be inside you right now,”. her replies weren’t much better—photos that never made it past the safety of their messages, audios he’d play on loop when he was alone, soft gasps and moans and whispered “wish you were here, baby,”.

it reached a point where even her friends were like “you know what? just go home to your man,” and she almost did.

but it’s joe who caves first.

because she sends a video—just her in his shirt, curled up in bed, pouting at the camera with that little “i miss you, joey”—and he snaps.

he instantly charters out a private jet for her, knowing damn well she could’ve done that herself, and even pays for the rest of her friend’s engagement celebration because he was calling her home a few days earlier than planned. it was the least he could do. 

and when she touches down in his city? texts him that she just passed their spot? joe’s already posted up by the door, pacing like a man on edge. the second she steps inside his house, that look in his eyes shifts into something carnal. like she’s the only thing he’s wanted, needed, ached for, and now he finally gets to have her again. it’s not just lust—it’s longing. it’s built up in every unread text and late-night call and empty side of the bed.

her suitcase barely hits the floor before his hands are on her. her back hits the wall. their mouths crash. it’s wild and dizzying and filthy, all teeth and tongue and breathless “fuck, i missed you” moans against her skin. his hands are under her shirt, down the back of her jeans—everywhere at once, like he doesn’t know what to touch first.

clothes? gone. scattered across the floor like casualties.

she’s already gasping, whispering things like “you feel so good, joe—missed you so bad, baby, i missed you,” and he’s groaning, deep and wrecked, muttering “been going insane without you. two fuckin’ weeks, baby? never again,”.

the first round is pure chaos. it’s desperate hips, messy kisses, her legs wrapped around his waist as he thrusts into her like a man unhinged. he’s groaning into her neck, and she’s digging her nails into his back, pulling him closer, closer, closer. their bodies are frantic—needy—like they’re trying to erase every second they spent apart by fusing into each other.

and then round two?

god. 

slow. deep. raw.

he’s got her on the bed now, body stretched out beneath him, her fingers tangled in his hair, his mouth pressed to her chest as he murmurs all the things he couldn’t say over the phone.

“missed you every fucking night. couldn’t even sleep in our bed without picturing you in it. came in my hand just thinking about you, baby,”.

he grips her thigh and slides in deeper, watching her face twist with pleasure, and it does something to him. because he knows he’s the only one who gets to see her like this—completely open, vulnerable, his. and she’s whispering back, all breathy and broken, “i’m yours, joe. always. fuck…,” and he can barely hold it together.

they don’t stop. they can’t.

they go again. and again.

there’s laughter in between, forehead kisses, little jokes when he fumbles with a blanket or she nearly trips getting up for water. she teases him for how needy he is and he just smirks, pulling her right back into bed. there are marks on her thighs, her neck, soft bruises she wears like love letters. his jaw is stubbly against her skin and she loves it—loves when he gets a little rough, a little growly, when he can’t stop telling her how fucking much he missed her, how she’s everything.

at some point, they forget what time it is. maybe the sun’s rising. maybe the stars are out. doesn’t matter—they’re back together, and that’s the only thing either of them cares about.

it’s not just sex. it’s homecoming. it’s sacred. it’s love in the most carnal, intimate form.

and after?

they pass out in a tangle of limbs, hair messy, bodies sticky and sore, hearts full. joe’s got his arm around her waist, her leg slung over his hip, and neither of them lets go.

not even in their sleep.

Ayo! Finished this damn thing. Hope this is still good. Tell me who we should go find next <333

Summary: As a perpetual, you have been by the Emperor's side for most of your immortality. There's no name for what strange dynamic you both share, but you do trust him and your loyalty eventually pays off over millennia once he fulfills an old promise he made during your first ever encounter.

Pairing: Emperor of Mankind x Perpetual!Reader (Female)

CW: None

Part 1 - Part 2 - ?

The Mother (2)

The pregnancy had been a success and the development was nothing short of fast and strenuous. You should have expected Him to mold your body in a manner that would serve Him better for his wishes and plans to be fulfilled.

His Great Crusade needed to be accomplished and you suddenly became part of the means to that end.

What a dreadful fate. To be nothing but his petri dish.

And so, Horus was born. His little form being held against your chest like the precious treasure that he was, making the sorrow of not having the rest of your children there too be momentarily forgotten by his awaited arrival, cooing and grunting in delight at the warmness of your encompassing heartbeat once he settled at your bosom.

A memory you cherished to the end of time while it had burned itself on your soul to leave a lasting mark. You had cried in joy, hunched over yourself to blanket your newborn with your whole begin and feel him real, psychical, between your arms.

His accelerated growth didn’t deter you enough from enjoying any time with your baby boy, from supporting him during his unforgiving training to reading with each other's company at the main library of the Imperial Palace. All for the sake of letting him be loved by you.

It was a matter that (while not ideal) didn't interest the Emperor much, for his plans were already taking proper form and the ‘gift’ of not taking away your son from you was enough of a blessing that didn’t need to be addressed again.

Even if that notion tasted like ash on your mouth.

Your little boy wasn’t so little anymore and that sometimes worried you, as you knew very well the kind of expectations the Emperor held for Horus; the true born Primarch, a warrior to serve under his Father’s light as a tool despite his own Mother’s unyielding love. You couldn’t help but feel like this was a prelude of some sort of omen.

Most of the days eventually became grey on its core, for your son was now in charge of his Legion, the Luna Wolves, marking his very first start as an official Primarch under the service of his Father… laying you to the sides like you have always been when regarding the Emperor.

Did Horus know how much it hurt his distance? How much it hurt to witness his crave for the approval of a man made god… when you simply wished to read a book of old literature in his company?

You hated being made again this tragic effigy of the woman with the eyes of a dying lamb. You felt forgotten… a ghost from these golden walls.

But the eventual call of Erda served to stray you away from such gloom thoughts. Her psyker powers a breach through your mind’s wall but clear enough for a single sentence to make your heart take a leap out close to your throat.

“I found one of them”

You couldn’t have been faster in your life to get a lunar cruiser ready to reach the needed destination; not even willingly to explain yourself when the Emperor saw you boarding the vessel. But as always, He went and proved to still be an enigma to you thanks to his ever unnatural actions.

“Go along with her… and make sure to protect her and obey her during the travel only” his command was absolute when he addressed four of his Custodes, their impassive disposition only showing the barest of emotion when fulfilling their Emperor’s orders like a gospel, but the specifics of his directive weren’t lost to you: to obey you just this single time. Nothing more, nothing less.

Of course, you weren't ungrateful to his gesture and thanked him deeply for it with a kiss to the palm of his armored hand when he caressed your cheek, but He quickly dismissed the matter. He knew what you were about to do and it wasn't like he Himself hadn’t been picking any possible clues to find the other Primarchs out there that you two wholeheartedly believed to still be alive.

Sometimes you wondered if the Emperor had managed to have a tiny, small part of instinctual fatherhood to be awakened within him after all the time he had spent with Horus. It was a nice thought. A hopeful one, but you knew better than to get your expectations up.

Once settled inside the cruiser, the coordinates were introduced to start the travel to retrieve one of your children.

Erda’s voice still echoing inside your mind when she told you the planet that you needed to search for: Nuceria.

-°-

The sight had been painful.

The worst nightmare a mother could ever expect.

Your arrival had been anything but discret at the revolting planet of Nuceria, having been informed of the life that the elites carried at the expense of the blood and flesh of slaves forced to fight for any resemblance of survival by their supposed masters. The irony wasn’t lost on you, but millenia of serving the Emperor had made you receptive to his ideals and methods. Justifying your own purpose by standing on his side could derive a vulnerability that you weren’t ready to confront. You needed to believe in the Emperor even if he took too far the phrase “Any means justify the end”.

After all, immortality has only made it easier for your troubling love to persevere longer in your stubborn heart and for fickle human lives to become an afterthought. You were well aware that you weren’t any better than Him in the ever present inhumanity you carried. 

When your child had looked at your direction, imposing form towering over your smaller frame and covered in so many slashes and blood, your heart had seized in a painful knot. Those scars were injuries you hadn’t been able to sooth with compassion. You had failed your son and that was something you’ll never forgive yourself.

The only mercy you could offer was to take him away from this wretched place.

Just when you were ready to take a step towards him, you saw his eyes harden and his posture change in defense with squared up shoulders. A warning if you decided to go against him and the thorn inside your chest only bled even more.

The Custodes that had escorted you as per their orders maintained a cold and terrifying disposition, deterring any of the guards surrounding you and your son’s tribe to take a last step. The commotion at the fighting pit had been great but you cared little for these people and their sick sense of entertainment. Fighting was an art of the honorable and the strong; to be used in epic battles to build history and civilizations. Using it as a careless trick was absolutely insulting.

It was beyond you to do this. Against any of the natural ingrained fighting instinct that had saved you for years, but the desperation of a mother overrode any of that to mere dust and motivated you to do the one thing you wished to believe will make your son realize who you were.

“I’ve been dreaming of finding you… for so long. I’m here now, my son”

And you saw it behind his hardened eyes, and you rejoiced in the recesses of your mind. There was a semblance of recognition shining through his stare at the timbre of your voice.

A far away lullaby that accompanied him in his lowest moments.

An step became two, then three and so on until you found yourself right at your child’s side after a few strides, hand gently touching his roughed one until the grip over his twin axe became slack, allowing you to take a better hold in an attempt to convey all the encapsulated emotions that stormed within your soul.

Grief, sadness, frustration, longing, relief… love.

You’ve been waiting for so long.

No one moved beyond you, tugging his huge arm towards you while softly telling him “It’s time to go home”, but those words instead of making him relax in your presence, had the opposite as his stance became once again defensive. At least this time he genuinely looked conflicted on the matter, glancing back at the other slaves that simply stayed behind as mere spectators of the whole encounter, unable to properly react when not just a few moments ago they were ready to lose their lives in the pits.

Ah, you understood.

“I can’t… not without my people…” he seemed to want add more into that sentence, his eyes straying just a little towards a man that looked to be quite tall by mortal standards, covered in too many scars that told stories of his battles in this wretched place but carrying himself with enough dignity to be respected.

This is where you must make a decision that will carry quite the weight. You knew that there was space enough to carry the slaves, not comfortably, but it could be arranged to be a thigh fit. You knew He wouldn’t even have hesitated at the idea of just forcibly taking your son and leaving all these humans to die with their fate already chosen. The Emperor had no time to dwell in the aspects of mercy and compassion, you could acknowledge that very well and that had been the main reason he had kept you long enough around. To remind him about the nostalgia of the humanity he once possessed. He couldn’t provide the proper love Horus and these children dreamed of… so you would carry that responsibility and dry your heart to make sure your precious sons knew they were loved no matter what.

Your loyalty will always belong to the Emperor, just as much as your body, soul and mind… but you didn’t belong to yourself too anymore… the pittance of individuality you were sure to hold crumbled into dust once you had wished to be the mother of these children and that was something you would proudly carry.

And so, your decision was made.

“Custodes!” you call them, their attention fully on you now and waiting for your command. The grasp over your son’s hand became tighter in an attempt to reassure him once you felt him go tense at your stern tone. He had probably expected the worst and that notion only made something vile twist inside your stomach. “We will be taking the slaves with us too”

There was a beat of uncertainty and you could already guess that this choice would not be well received by the Emperor… but that was something you were willingly to bear over your shoulders like many times you have done in the past.

Things will work out. You can only trust blind hope, but that is enough for now.

You stretch your arm towards his face with some effort, for he is still taller than you, but he lets his head tilt towards you to help a bit and gives you the chance to offer a sweet caress over his cheek. You can feel the rough texture of his messy shave, of the scars, and your heart throbs painfully when you think about all the hardships he had to face.

You couldn’t assure him a better life away from battle, but you could at least give him the solace of a greater future along for his people.

“I’m here now… and I will not abandon you… ever” there had been an edge of something feral in your tone. The side you rarely showed but a reminder of why you had been beside the Emperor this long.

You hoped Horus would be open at the idea of some siblings.

Just messing around with this idea, don't get ya hopes up pls.

Love ya, fellas!

Doing a favor to all the horny simps (me included)

Can we have some Mr WPNZ NSFW headcanons?

- 🦉

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Mr. WPNZ NSFW Headcanons! (+ a lil bit of past Karen's interactions with him)

18+ CONTENT BELOW! NO MINORS ALLOWED!

🏹 2 dicks, both have Knots, it's why he's such a horny bastard. I don't make the rules.

🏹 If you ask him, he's definitely got a few special...."upgrades" that Karen never wanted to try. He'd be estatic if you wanted to try them.

🏹 You'll have this man wrapped around your finger if you're into knife and gun play.

🏹 Can and will send dick pics if you let him. You'll be surprised how many of them are during missions.

🏹 Karen was pretty vanilla. The most she'd do was handcuffs to the bed. So having someone as freaky as him in the sack is a fucking wet dream come true.

🏹 Can and will be especially horny after successful missions. The thrill of violence and adrenaline are a cocktail that'll leave you bedridden by the time he's done with you.

🏹 Absolute hero when it comes to sub drops. He's sticking to your side to make sure you're ok.

🏹 Have a hard boundary? He respects it. If it's something he really likes, yeah he might be a little disappointed, but he'll lay off on it.

🏹 Best Valentine's day gift? A hot, spicy pin up of you. He's keeping that shit in his wallet.

🏹 Honey, if you can take both cocks, PLUS the Knots? Oh he's fucking addicted to you. No one's been able to, but holy shit if you can fit it all, he's putting a ring on your finger then and there.

🏹 HUGE loads. Like, big enough to give a small bulge, that if he presses down on it, it's flowing out of you. God he loves the sight of it.

🏹 You cannot tell me that a man with teeth that fucking sharp ain't into biting you. He is pretty careful where he bites you though, his teeth are razor sharp and he has killed people with them.

🏹 He loves the taste of your blood on his tongue after he bites down on you. The metallic taste combined with the scent of you, of sweat, of sex, the moans, the bed creaking and the headboard slamming into the wall, the cracks of whips and whimpers in the air....it's pure ambrosia to him. More addictive than any drug known to mankind.

🏹 Growls, snarls, whispering a cocktail of filth and praise as he pounds into you, gripping you, bruising you, making you whimper and succumb to him.

🏹 It might take a few tries to finally get him to understand you're using the safe word. But once he realizes, the bonds are off, one of his hands is nabbing the first aid kit, and the water brought to you.

🏹 He doesn't leave your side until he knows you're ok while he's going to take a shower to finish off. Afterwards, if you're in any pain (you probably will be) he's rubbing some numbing salve into your bruises and anywhere that hurts.

🏹 He's doing what he can to make up for the fact he didn't hear you the first time. Making sure you know he does care about you, your boundaries, and your feelings as a whole.

🏹 You two come up with other signals to count as safe words if he's too lost in the sauce.

🏹 He is only a top. He doesn't bottom at all.

🏹 Going on a mission with him? Oh honey, you better be careful. Seeing you beat the shit outta people and kill them is going to drive him fucking insane. This can lead to quickies during missions.

🏹 Definitely Bisexual.

Enjoy~

We are told 'that' those who live righteously, are being self-righteous, while those who are unrighteous, while sinning everyday in thought, word, and deed are in the true faith.

2 Corinthians 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Philippians 3:9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

The unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God

1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

In other words, if you 'don't sin', you are a heretic, but if you do sin, you are good with God, and are in the faith.

1John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

1 John 3:10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

What utter foolishness to believe obeying God is impossible and even morally wrong.

Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

1 John 2:29 If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him.

1 John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

The Prayers of the righteous man availeth much

James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Psalm 11:5 The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

Psalm 112:6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

Psalm 34:15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.

Proverbs 10:2 Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death.10:3 The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked.

Psalm 5:12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

1 Peter 4:18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

We are told to awake to righteousness and sin not

1 Corinthians 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.

Righteous people mentioned in scripture

Elisabeth & Zacharias

Luke 1:5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

Lot

2 Peter 2:7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:2:8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds)

Abel

Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

Noah , Daniel, Job

Ezekiel 14:14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.

Melchisedec: means King of righteousness

Hebrews 7:1 For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;7:2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being (by interpretation King of righteousness), and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;

John the Baptist came unto you in the way of Righteousness

Matthew 21:32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness

Genesis 15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

James 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

Psalm 106:3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.

Isaiah 33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?33:15 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;33:16 He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.

[the-chronicle-of-holy-days]

Day 11

Liber Libræ

0. Learn first — Oh thou who aspirest unto our ancient Order! — that Equilibrium is the basis of the Work. If thou thyself hast not a sure foundation, whereon wilt thou stand to direct the forces of Nature?

1. Know then, that as man is born into this world amidst the Darkness of Matter, and the strife of contending forces; so must his first endeavour be to seek the Light through their reconciliation.

2. Thou then, who hast trials and troubles, rejoice because of them, for in them is Strength, and by their means is a pathway opened unto that Light.

3. How should it be otherwise, O man, whose life is but a day in Eternity, a drop in the Ocean of time; how, were thy trials not many, couldst thou purge thy soul from the dross of earth?

Is it but now that the Higher Life is beset with dangers and difficulties; hath it not ever been so with the Sages and Hierophants of the past? They have been persecuted and reviled, they have been tormented of men; yet through this also has their Glory increased.

4. Rejoice therefore, O Initiate, for the greater thy trial the greater thy Triumph. When men shall revile thee, and speak against thee falsely, hath not the Master said, “Blessed art thou!”?

5. Yet, oh aspirant, let thy victories bring thee not Vanity, for with increase of Knowledge should come increase of Wisdom. He who knoweth little, thinketh he knoweth much; but he who knoweth much hath learned his own ignorance. Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope of a fool, than of him.

6. Be not hasty to condemn others; how knowest thou that in their place, thou couldest have resisted the temptation? And even were it so, why shouldst thou despise one who is weaker than thyself?

7. Thou therefore who desirest Magical Gifts, be sure that thy soul is firm and steadfast; for it is by flattering thy weaknesses that the Weak Ones will gain power over thee. Humble thyself before thy Self, yet fear neither man nor spirit. Fear is failure, and the forerunner of failure: and courage is the beginning of virtue.

8. Therefore fear not the Spirits, but be firm and courteous with them; for thou hast no right to despise or revile them; and this too may lead thee astray. Command and banish them, curse them by the Great Names if need be; but neither mock nor revile them, for so assuredly wilt thou be lead into error.

9. A man is what he maketh himself within the limits fixed by his inherited destiny; he is a part of mankind; his actions affect not only what he calleth himself, but also the whole universe.

10. Worship and neglect not, the physical body which is thy temporary connection with the outer and material world. Therefore let thy mental Equilibrium be above disturbance by material events; strengthen and control the animal passions, discipline the emotions and the reason, nourish the Higher Aspirations.

11. Do good unto others for its own sake, not for reward, not for gratitude from them, not for sympathy. If thou art generous, thou wilt not long for thine ears to be tickled by expressions of gratitude.

12. Remember that unbalanced force is evil; that unbalanced severity is but cruelty and oppression; but that also unbalanced mercy is but weakness which would allow and abet Evil. Act passionately; think rationally; be Thyself.

13. True ritual is as much action as word; it is Will.

14. Remember that this earth is but an atom in the universe, and that thou thyself art but an atom thereon, and that even couldst thou become the God of this earth whereon thou crawlest and grovellest, that thou wouldest, even then, be but an atom, and one amongst many.

15. Nevertheless have the greatest self-respect, and to that end sin not against thyself. The sin which is unpardonable is knowingly and wilfully to reject truth, to fear knowledge lest that knowledge pander not to thy prejudices.

16. To obtain Magical Power, learn to control thought; admit only those ideas that are in harmony with the end desired, and not every stray and contradictory Idea that presents itself.

17. Fixed thought is a means to an end. Therefore pay attention to the power of silent thought and meditation. The material act is but the outward expression of thy thought, and therefore hath it been said that “the thought of foolishness is sin.” Thought is the commencement of action, and if a chance thought can produce much effect, what cannot fixed thought do?

18. Therefore, as hath already been said, Establish thyself firmly in the equilibrium of forces, in the centre of the Cross of the Elements, that Cross from whose centre the Creative Word issued in the birth of the Dawning Universe.

19. Be thou therefore prompt and active as the Sylphs, but avoid frivolity and caprice; be energetic and strong like the Salamanders, but avoid irritability and ferocity; be flexible and attentive to images like the Undines, but avoid idleness and changeability; be laborious and patient like the Gnomes, but avoid grossness and avarice.

20. So shalt thou gradually develop the powers of thy soul, and fit thyself to command the Spirits of the elements. For wert thou to summon the Gnomes to pander to thine avarice, thou wouldst no longer command them, but they would command thee. Wouldst thou abuse the pure beings of the woods and mountains to fill thy coffers and satisfy thy hunger of Gold? Wouldst thou debase the Spirits of Living Fire to serve thy wrath and hatred? Wouldst thou violate the purity of the Souls of the Waters to pander to thy lust of debauchery? Wouldst thou force the Spirits of the Evening Breeze to minister to thy folly and caprice? Know that with such desires thou canst but attract the Weak, not the Strong, and in that case the Weak will have power over thee.

21. In the true religion there is no sect, therefore take heed that thou blaspheme not the name by which another knoweth his God; for if thou do this thing in Jupiter thou wilt blaspheme יהוה and in Osiris יהשוה. Ask and ye shall have! Seek, and ye shall find! Knock, and it shall be opened unto you!

The Great Exchange

“A certain ruler asked him, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” Luke 18:18NIV

Salvation— You can’t get to heaven without it. How to obtain salvation is the question asked by this “certain ruler” and many people today. The common thing is— they desire to work for their salvation— anything but believe in the work of the cross and the salvation through Christ’s death, burial, resurrection and blood.

As the “certain ruler” conversed with Jesus, he called Jesus ‘good Master.’ When Jesus told him, only God was good, the “certain ruler” replied by addressing Jesus only as ‘Master.’ Proving he didn’t believe Jesus to be God, but a teacher or prophet. Christianity is the only religion with a Savior, and which recognizes Jesus in His rightful role as the a part of Godhead. Amazingly, all the religions recognize Jesus— like the “certain ruler” did— as a prophet.

Make no mistake— JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD— not a prophet. “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” John 14:6ESV. Only the Son is the doorway to God.

Peter repeated this— Acts 4:12NIV “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”

Always before, I’ve heard salvation described as ‘accepting Jesus into your heart and life as your Lord and Savior.’ That’s only partial truth, salvation is realizing you’ve been accepted and loved by God, in the midst of all your unpleasantness and filth; and believing in Him. You don’t have to ‘clean up your act’ to meet Jesus. Accepted—just as you are. Isn’t that exciting?

Before Christ, God dealt with us through the Law. After thoroughly studying the Law, I can tell you— not breaking the Law is impossible. Only two things aren’t considered breaking a law— breathing and praising God. Everything else breaks God’s laws. Andrew Womack says the law is like glass. Shoot a BB, [little infraction] through it or throw a boulder, [huge infraction]— it’s broken. And someone has to pay for the glass. Salvation is the great exchange— our sinfulness for Christ Jesus’ sinlessness. He pays for it all.

Breaking the Law is called ‘sin.’ Paul declares in Romans 6:23KJV “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Salvation is called “gift of God.” A ‘gift’ is a free, undeserved blessing. Jehovah God didn’t think it was enough to just accept and love us humans. He wanted to give us undeserved gifts— mercy and grace— to erase our filthy sins.

Paul told us how to be saved in Romans 10:9-10ESV “…if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one BELIEVES and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.” (Emphasis mine)

Then Paul proceeds to tell where the faith to believe for salvation comes from, Ephesians 2:8NIV. “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, IT IS A GIFT OF GOD—” (Emphasis mine.) Faith is His gift to us as well.

Knowing the how and why of our salvation is very important. When the lie comes to tell us— ‘You have to obey this rule and that rule to be saved,’ we can lean on the foundation of truth in faith. Saying— ‘No devil! I believed in Jesus with the faith God gifted to me. I believe and I’m saved.’ Or you can be a Galatian, falling for the lie and trying to earn your eternal life. It’s your choice. You choose.

LET’S PRAY: Papa God please lead these readers out of bondage and into the truth of grace, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

"The Cliche." From Surah 51, Surah Adh-Dhariyat, "The Wilding of the Wind."

Angels and insects, that is the relationship between God, the Quran, and life on earth. How can we organize the colony so it resembles the flocks of angels in heaven instead of the ravenous termite mound we have turned this world into?

The Surah explains:

51: 52-58:

"Similarly, no messenger came to those before them without being told: “A magician or a madman!”

Have they passed this ˹cliché˺ down to one another? In fact, they have ˹all˺ been a transgressing people.

So ˹now˺ turn away from them ˹O Prophet˺, for you will not be blamed.1

But ˹continue to˺ remind. For certainly reminders benefit the believers.

I did not create jinn and humans except to worship Me.

I seek no provision from them, nor do I need them to feed Me.

Indeed, Allah ˹alone˺ is the Supreme Provider—Lord of all Power, Ever Mighty."

Commentary:

Reminders are the way God feeds us. We "feed" Him in return by following the path of the Pilgrimage outlined in the Verses. The Quran calls this soft dollar approach to feeding God "payment of dividends on the loan of life" which He takes out on each of us.

Let us look at the Hadith for ways Muslim sages have stated are ways we can generate repayment provisions, or ROI during life and how this pertains to the making of a Salih from a Salim.

Below are some examples:

🌿 Hadith on the "Goodly Loan" to Allah 🌿

"Who is it that will loan Allah a goodly loan so that He may multiply it for him many times over?" — Qur'an 2:245

💫 1. Allah Promises to Repay

"Whoever gives a loan to Allah, He will repay it multiplied many times." — Hadith Qudsi (echoing Qur'an 2:245)

Even when we give from what little we have, it's Allah who owes us the return—in full, and multiplied.

🤲 2. Spend, and I Will Spend on You

"O son of Adam! Spend, and I shall spend on you." — Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 4684 — Sahih Muslim, Hadith 993

Allah doesn’t forget your generosity. Every act of giving is an invitation for divine abundance.

🌊 3. Help Others, Be Helped by Heaven

"Whoever relieves a believer’s distress, Allah will relieve his distress on the Day of Resurrection... And Allah will help the servant as long as the servant is helping his brother." — Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2699

When you serve others, you are literally investing in your own future. Allah repays kindness with divine mercy.

👼 4. Angels Bear Witness to Every Gift

"Every day two angels descend. One says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your cause.' The other says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser.'" — Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 1442 — Sahih Muslim, Hadith 1010

Even the angels are involved in your acts of charity. The spiritual economy is always watching.

🌱 Reflection

Charity is not subtraction. It’s a sacred transaction. When you give for Allah’s sake, He says:

“I owe you. And I pay in ways you can’t imagine.”

So Adam can become a Salim and live and work among other men, but a Salih walks among the angels, ensuring man does not become too miserly. There is enough to go around provided none of us is too selfish. This is not a cliche, it is how God intended the mound of mankind should work.

First Reading Ecclesiasticus 1:1-10 Before all other things, wisdom was created.

All wisdom is from the Lord, and it is his own for ever. The sand of the sea and the raindrops, and the days of eternity, who can assess them? The height of the sky and the breadth of the earth, and the depth of the abyss, who can probe them? Before all other things wisdom was created, shrewd understanding is everlasting. For whom has the root of wisdom ever been uncovered? Her resourceful ways, who knows them? One only is wise, terrible indeed, seated on his throne, the Lord. He himself has created her, looked on her and assessed her, and poured her out on all his works to be with all mankind as his gift, and he conveyed her to those who love him.

The Word of the Lord

R/ Thanks be to God.

The world you made firm, not to be moved; your throne has stood firm from of old. From all eternity, O Lord, you are.

Gospel Mark 9:14-29 Help the little faith I have!

When Jesus, with Peter, James and John came down from the mountain and rejoined the disciples, they saw a large crowd round them and some scribes arguing with them. The moment they saw him the whole crowd were struck with amazement and ran to greet him. ‘What are you arguing about with them?’ he asked. A man answered him from the crowd, ‘Master, I have brought my son to you; there is a spirit of dumbness in him, and when it takes hold of him it throws him to the ground, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth and goes rigid. And I asked your disciples to cast it out and they were unable to.’ ‘You faithless generation’ he said to them in reply. ‘How much longer must I be with you? How much longer must I put up with you? Bring him to me.’ They brought the boy to him, and as soon as the spirit saw Jesus it threw the boy into convulsions, and he fell to the ground and lay writhing there, foaming at the mouth. Jesus asked the father, ‘How long has this been happening to him?’ ‘From childhood,’ he replied ‘and it has often thrown him into the fire and into the water, in order to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have pity on us and help us.’ ‘If you can?’ retorted Jesus. ‘Everything is possible for anyone who has faith.’ Immediately the father of the boy cried out, ‘I do have faith. Help the little faith I have!’ And when Jesus saw how many people were pressing round him, he rebuked the unclean spirit. ‘Deaf and dumb spirit,’ he said ‘I command you: come out of him and never enter him again.’ Then throwing the boy into violent convulsions it came out shouting, and the boy lay there so like a corpse that most of them said, ‘He is dead.’ But Jesus took him by the hand and helped him up, and he was able to stand. When he had gone indoors his disciples asked him privately, ‘Why were we unable to cast it out?’ ‘This is the kind’ he answered ‘that can only be driven out by prayer.’

The Gospel of the Lord

R/ Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

What the Bible Says about Keeping a Good Conscience

Taking Every Thought Captive: What the Bible Says about a Good Conscience

Song of Solomon 2:15 says, “Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.” Foxes sometimes in search of food would enter into the grape orchards and devour the grapes and spoil the crop. However, the little foxes were too small to reach the grape bunches so they would chew on the vines and it would kill the whole vine. Instead of the farmer just losing his crop, he would lose his vine which was more disastrous. Spiritually some things we do or allow that we might think are little or insignificant can also be disastrous for us.

Every man is born with a conscience. It is a gift of God to mankind. However, man can quench his conscience by continually ignoring its voice over some time. The result is that his heart becomes hardened and seared so that it no longer speaks to him. How does this happen? Little by little.  Just as the “little foxes” spoil the vines, so it happens with men ignoring the voice of their consciences over little things, then bigger things, then nothing evil bothers them at all.

Webster’s New World Dictionary defines the conscience as: “a knowledge or sense of right and wrong, with a compulsion to do right; a moral judgment that opposes the violation of a previously recognized ethical principle and that leads to feelings of guilt.”

God Given Conscience vs. False Conscience

God provided a conscience even in unregenerate men to point them toward His principles and ways. All of us, before we are saved would be depraved if it were not for this provision of God by His grace. However, the longer people live in sin and carnality, the less the true inward conscience has any authority in their lives. Most of the time, particularly in today’s culture, we have developed “false” consciences. These are “programs” in our minds, not our spirits, as to what is right and wrong, and these things (evolution, secularism, humanism, situational ethics, and traditions and doctrines of religious thinking) control what we think is moral and ethical. The world’s thinking overrides and drowns out the inner voice of the true conscience that God put within us.

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast to the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works. Hebrews 10:22-24

Because of the world’s ungodly influences, it is very important for a Christian to allow His conscience to be “healed,” or renewed, to reflect God’s standards which we find in the Bible. That is why Christians cannot be guided by their consciences in most cases. It is much safer to be guided by the Word of God and by witnesses and guidance from the Holy Spirit.

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war in the flesh (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.  Romans 12:2

When the Conscience Becomes Seared

Today we are shocked by the evil acts of men who perform ghastly deeds and show no remorse whatsoever. We ask, “How can they do such things?” When the conscience is seared — burned out by constantly going against its nudgings — then men become like animals in their behavior. The Bible speaks of this in the following verses, “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times, some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron” (1 Timothy 4:1-2).

This also happened in ancient times, according to Paul’s letter to the church in Rome (Romans 1). After a certain period, God will give someone with a seared or evil conscience “over to a reprobate mind.” That means the mind cannot be renewed because the person has for so long chosen self-ways (which are Satan’s ways) over God’s that they can't change. This should be a warning for all who persist in sin.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same but have pleasure in them that do them. Romans 1:28-32

Healing Body, Soul & Spirit

When we give our lives to the Lord, He begins a work in our hearts and minds and brings healing and enlightenment to the conscience. When a Christian’s conscience is renewed, it will not condemn them. When a Christian’s mind is renewed, it will not think carnal, self-centered thoughts. When a Christian’s emotions are renewed, they will no longer be negative. When a Christian’s will be renewed and submitted to God, he will no longer choose against God’s ways.

This happens on the positive just the way it does on the negative side. Our little choices to obey God and live by His Word Day by day will eventually bring changes in our lives that will cause us to be more like our Lord. While on the other side, those choices to ignore the conscience and go ahead and disobey God will bring about a hardened and unrepentant heart. We are warned against allowing this to happen. Do not allow this “little fox” of small disobedience choices to gradually harden your heart.

But exhort one another daily, while it is called today; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end; While it is said, today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. But with whom was he grieved forty years? Was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness? Hebrews 3:13-17

Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening" Devotional for December 6

Morning

“Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.”

1 Timothy 1

Hitherto we have only read portions from Paul’s letters to churches; we now turn to one of his four epistles to individual Christians. It was written to Timothy, who was very dear to the apostle as one of the most affectionate, faithful, and gifted of his spiritual children.

1 Timothy 1:3 , 1 Timothy 1:4

Jewish “teachers of the law” introduced into the churches a kind of mystic philosophy, made up of foolish legends, spiritualizings, and ascetical precepts, which Paul did not hesitate to call “old wives’ fables” and “profane babblings.” Timothy was stationed at Ephesus, to do battle with these mischief-makers, and to set the church in order. In these times there are tendencies to absurdities of the same kind, and we should be upon our guard against them. That which pretends to be wiser, deeper, or holier than the word of God must come from the father of lies.

1 Timothy 1:5-7

Some teachers of our own day are for ever raising questions upon points of no practical value. Such vain jangling let us keep clear of, and follow the simple teachings of our Lord Jesus.

1 Timothy 1:8-15

This is a Christian proverb, an axiom of our creed, “familiar in our mouths as household words,” and right well does it deserve to be repeated and received by all mankind.

1 Timothy 1:17

At thought of the grace which saved him, Paul broke forth into a doxology, and well he might.

1 Timothy 1:18-20

Perhaps they were left to follow out the natural tendency of their doctrines under the influence of Satan until they should see by actual experience where their teachings would land them, and would then have grace to repent. May the Lord keep us free from all false doctrine lest we come under the like condemnation.

Now to the God of victory,

Immortal thanks be paid,

Who makes us conquerors while we die,

Through Christ our living Head.

Evening

“Take heed unto thyself and unto the doctrine.”

1 Timothy 4

In this letter to Timothy Paul denounces many of those forms, of error which have been the plague of the Christian church in all ages. Those who deal with spirits, or profess to do so, those who multiply forms and ceremonies, those who make religion to lie in meats and drinks, and those who attach importance to legends and traditions, are all heavily censured, as they deserve.

1 Timothy 4:1

leading on to the worship of angels, fear of demons, and attempts at commerce with the dead. In every age some deceivers and deceived ones have wandered in this direction. Far from us be such darkness.

1 Timothy 4:2

As a hot iron deadens the part which it burns, so is their conscience no longer sensitive, and they can utter falsehood unblushingly.

1 Timothy 4:3

How well this describes the Church of Rome, which combines both superstitions. Other sects also have decried marriage, and issued laws as to eating and drinking, making that to be sin which is no. sin.

1 Timothy 4:6

To hold fast the true faith is one of our first duties. To be for ever chopping and changing is a most unhappy and dangerous condition.

1 Timothy 4:8

For bodily exercise profiteth little: or a little; it may, when rightly used, promote bodily health, but that is all

1 Timothy 4:9 , 1 Timothy 4:10

All men derive some benefit from Jesus death. They are spared, they enjoy the common blessings of providence, and they are placed under mediatorial rule; yet redemption has its special design and effect, and these have to do only with believers. The Saviour has bought some good things for all men, and all good things for some men. Are we believers? Then, in a special sense, Jesus is our Saviour.

1 Timothy 4:14

Even when the miraculous gifts of the Spirit were in the church the most favoured ministers were to study and meditate: how much more then is it now their duty! Those who speak without thinking seldom say anything worth thinking of.

1 Timothy 4:15 , 1 Timothy 4:16

Or “be thou wholly in them.” Be absorbed in thy work,

Care as to our doctrine will both preserve the teacher himself from serious error, and keep his hearers from the same evil. This should lead us to be very prayerful, and careful as to what we receive, and what we communicate to others. Doctrines are not to be trifled with, they are life and death matters. Lord teach us thy truth.

Make me to understand

Thy precepts and thy will;

Thy wondrous works on every hand,

I’ll sing and talk of still.

Jumu'ah Sohbet: 24 May 2024

After a technology meltdown, Alhamdulillah we are here! Shukran Ya Allah (Divine gratitude) for your Nana for reinventing this into a "new" phone, according to Mahfouz! Our week led to the highlight where Mahfouz's question about what age you need to be, to join Silat - landing both him and Muntaha as possibly the youngest members to join this Silat school, Subhana'Allah (Divine glory!). In that midst, these were some additional blessed insights, Bismillah:

#1. We were blessed with a reunion with Anne's nur (Allah's light), and she happened to relay our Nabi's PBUH "Prayer of Light." Before that, she reflected that we talked about taqwa (self-vigilance / Allah consciousness) in Ramadan, along with Rabita (purposeful heart connection), because that's how we know what Allah wants us to do. She explained that yes, Allah's word is in the Qur'an, but there are many situations that come up in one's life that require a different energy. We thus need our connection to Allah to go forward. To this day, she tearily yet deeply recollected her "honey's," that's Shaykh Taner's latest words about one's conscience. Our conscience is when Allah is speaking to us.

We all have Allah's voice in us, even as little kids. When we kids misbehave; we may ask, is Allah happy with this? From birth on, we have Allah's voice in our hearts, and our conscience is one of the names for this. The latest message from our Shaykh Taner is that conscience is when Allah's voice speaks to us, as the part of us that is telling the truth. It points out that we are always connected. When we think about all our different life situations, it is when our conscience speaks very loudly.

And those of us that say, 'I do Rabita, but I don't hear Allah's voice!' We must remember that Allah is As-Sami and Al-Basir and answers prayers. Allah hears, Allah sees, and He answers all of our prayers. It is us that needs to remove the veils from our seeing and hearing so that we can perceive Allah! This is what necessitated a focus on how to perform Rabita, the importance of it, because how are we to connect and devote ourselves to Allah without it? We are not doing anything that is outside of the Qur'an. However, she added that there is not one way to connect because Allah has created us each in a particular way. In the "Aqim es-Salat" book, we talk about connecting to Allah through Zikr / Dhikr (Divine remembrance) always, prayers / dua'a where we are sincerely talking to Allah and acknowledging Him as our God. Dua'a are powerful too! As our Nabi's SAW emotive "Prayer of Light."

#2. We just passed the sad and dramatic passing of Irani President Raisi in a helicopter accident. I was not only born in Iran, but President Raisi was beloved amongst the working class people of Iran and actively supporting Palestine during this horrendous time! We lived amongst many of the working class and Iranian villagers who have hearts of gold 💛 They wouldn't wash their veggies that they grew and often come to your Nana and Nanu with stomach issues. But we were often gifted with scrumptious food and produce from their gardens out of their endearing gratitude!

Above: President Raisi's funeral proceedings in Iran, as emotive as the Shia commemoration of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein and lot (may Allah be pleased with all of them) in Karbala.

I was reflecting with your Aunties how interesting it is that I have been exposed to traditional systems and modern systems amongst mankind. I appreciate some aspects of both and belong to neither! I choose our Shaykh Taner's identified Allahistan! Allah please forgive and bless everyone in our spiritual chain, especially my humourous introduction to it through Shaykh Taner, and guide Anne as our worldly representative!

#3. Khalifa Rubina this week focused on Surah Yasin of the Qur'an. She made me realise why it's considered the heart of the Qur'an. This late into my journey of Islam and through Sufism, nogal - colloquially speaking - or for Pete's sake! I am guilty of approaching the Qur'an with my arrogant preconceptions: Ya Gafoor Ya Afu (Seeking Divine forgiveness for my past misgiving.) Allah of course is the greatest Poet, if in its verses He can succinctly proclaim of His powerful ability, Kun faya kun (Be, and it is!)

Surah Yasin, like Surah Fatiha, is a common Surah that we've grown up with. Recited during times of death, and Nabi SAW identified it as the heart of the Qur'an. It is because all the tenets of Islam are in Surah Yasin as the Surah of guidance. It is a reminder of Nabi SAW as our messenger, the Qur'an being revealed by Allah, and all the aspects of us understanding our relationship with Allah. The other reminder is what Shaykh Taner spoke extensively about in Surah Yasin. We use the first 12 verses for spiritual, mental, and emotional cleansing. Shaykh Taner and Shaykha Muzeyyen Ansari have noted this in the healing book below. A message throughout Surah Yasin is guidance and the beautiful understanding of "qalb" as the heart that is to turn. The understanding and contemplating on Surah Yasin helps us to repeatedly turn to Allah. Our purpose is to be khalifa (representatives) of Allah by turning to Him repeatedly. Therefore, working with and connecting to our hearts is what we are striving for Insha'Allah! May we be people of "Qalbun Saleem" possessing spiritual hearts that Allah is pleased with.

The Surah of the Qur'an that begin with Arabic letters, Shaykh Taner explains are secret codes of the Qur'an to ensure that it is protected. You can learn more from different mufassireen (scholars who interpret Qur'an and hadith). Another understanding is that it is another name for our Nabi SAW. "Seen" is the letter that appears in "insaan" as human beings, implying that Nabi SAW was the most perfect representation. Nabi SAW is described as the best character and example. These first 12 verses are recommended to read daily and the intent is for all-round cleansing. With that we can recite 3 Surah Ikhlas, 1 Surah Falaq, 1 Surah Nas and Aytul Qursi. This is shared with us in the book "Alternative Healing: The Sufi Way"

In conclusion, Shukran Ya Allah that your Ammu can be a multitasking researcher because she noted what you reflected during Silat class last night!:

"Kiddy feedback:

Why was Guru @⁨Rennie S⁩ talking to me (us) so often? 😇

Were we the first kids to join Silat? 🤷🏽‍♀️

I can't wait to show my friends my new Silat moves! 🤭

@⁨~Gasan⁩ looks so strong 😉💪

It's fun that the moves have a story 🐟 @⁨Ilana⁩ (Your breakdown of the moves and dance was magic!)

Gratitude for such an endearing welcome to the "Silaties", as their dad calls them 💓🙏"

Joy To The World

“And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” Luke 2:8-14NIV

For myself, my family plus most of our acquaintances, it’s too late to bring us into woke thinking. Unilaterally we understand Psalm. 34:8 “O taste and see that the Lord is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!” There is no better lifestyle available on earth than trusting and serving Jesus.

The angels were correct. When they said, “good news that will cause great joy.” Joy strengthens and encourages. Over the course of history, more songs have been written, more joy has been given to those who know Jesus intimately.

Mary, Jesus’ mother, had her own take on joy. Luke 1:46-47NIV “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,” Then she proceeded to explain why she was joyful….. V49-54NIV “for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is His name. His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty.” Do you see how prophetic Mary’s words were? Throughout the centuries of time all of these things have been done, bringing joy to all of the recipients of His mercy and goodness. His help to the helpless against bad government has even extended to our day.

Barney Warren penned the song, Joy Unspeakable: ‘It is joy unspeakable and full of glory, Full of glory, full of glory. It is joy unspeakable and full of glory; O the half has never yet been told!’

Ponder the words of this non-Christmas song a moment. Joy Unspeakable? Why does the birth of this Babe give such joy? Look further at what Jesus’s coming did for us. His arrival removed the power of sins, blessed the poor while casting down the rich: taken down evil rulers. He will rule with truth and grace. Not a code of rules and impossible demands.

At the birth of one tiny little baby, the entire history of mankind changed. Love came to earth, not rules and regulations, but intimate love and fellowship. The angels said His birth would bring GREAT JOY! Nothing but Jesus can bring joy to the world, contentment, peace and love. If you do not know Jesus personally, as you celebrate His birthday, please, invite Him into your heart as a permanent resident. Then you can know JOY for yourself. Will you accept Jesus and rejoice in His free gifts of love and joy? It’s your choice. You choose.

PRAYER: Precious Almighty God, I choose His joy. Papa please help everyone to find JOY in Jesus as they celebrate this year, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

Shattered Hero ~ Origins of the Ink Demon : Episode Maka Pt.20 (2/2)

[Crisis City (Whirlwind Ver.) - Tomoya Ohtani]

Grim : Everyone, triple boost immediately!

Maka and Moirai : Roger!

(the three does a triple boost)

*BOOST!*

Maka : So grim! What are we exactly running at mach speed?

Moirai : Yeah, what does it have to do mach speed!?

Grim : There's only one thing's for sure in this dystopian city. And I have one very important phrase ask yourselves.

Maka : Oh I see. The reason why were running at mach speed because...(Gary meows) That's right! That Tornado behind us is carrying a car!

Moirai : I was hoping that you were going to say it!

Grim : I really had enough of these Tornado Jokes. Can't a blue hedgehog say his line before chased by anything?

"10 minutes later..."

Maka : The Tornado is still carrying car.

Moirai & Grim : Shut it, Maka!

Moirai : This is going to take forever to get there!

"10 more minutes later..."

Maka : So, are we still running from the tornado?

Moirai : Quite so.

"10 times more minutes later..."

Maka : *panting* I need a break from running behind that tornado!

Moirai : Yeah, you were right about that. We need a break from mach speed.

Maka : So any news on where in the heck are we?

Moirai : So yeah, this is where the database is here and technology remains here inside this place.

Maka : Doesn't seems to be any technology around here...Huh? That light coming from that room. You think there might be some monitor or something?

Moirai :[quietly] Quiet, and keep your voice down!

Silver : So, umm, do I even to believe that you're the son of Amaterasu, second son of the first pillar?

Mephiles : Correct? So what do I have something in common for the creation of Destroyer of life. I assume that you would be gradually helping me out on taking out the target that is the Iblis Trigger. You hardly understand that Shinra is the father of me. That poor old fool! He'll be such a drag when he finds out the real world we'll be in the palm of my hands for the sweet taste of revenge!

Silver : Then I'll do it! And to make sure about that, I forgot to get a happy presidents day card in Virginia!

*ZAP!*

Moirai : So that was Mephiles alright. What was he planning on destroying the...these drawings and pictures. These are part of his grand plan of genocide...death and destruction that he craved for. Was this a gift for avenging his mother to go against Shinra's transgressions? My god! So let me explain to this on the drawings he did when he was little. Obviously for Amaterasu aka the first pillar and Spectral woman, she gave birth to the god of time known as Mobian Sun God Solaris 1000 years before the Time Eater arrived in the Ohkuboverse, in which a science project called the Solaris Project led to the birth of two of her sons Mephiles and Iblis. The men of influence must've kept them hidden their selves with secrecy till the Mad scientist himself started the attack during the sun festival.

Maka : Now we finally collecting the pieces together. Amaterasu gave birth to Solaris, then it gave birth to the two of her sons first. Second ; was that Iblis was sealed inside Elise and Mephiles sealed inside the scepter of Darkness. And 10 after that, the Mad scientist begans an attack on Soleanna and started the Solaris Incident.

Grim : Thus, Sonic 06 the worst game existed in all of mankind.

Moirai : How did you know about that?

Grim : Because...

*flashback*

Sonic : Grim! Why didn't you tell me that Sonic 06 was gonna be bad from the start! So it wasn't Yuji Naka that hadn't been to blame? So who did he blame?

Hibana : Sonic!

Sonic : Kunoichi star Hibana!

Hibana : You! Your co-creator put the blame on Shinobi's creator! And now thanks to you, Sonic 06 has officially becoming your worst nightmare and the developers work so hard that Yuji Naka would put his reputation on the game, but then he left and Shinobi producer had to go make everyone rushed it's development.

Beat : Yeah! It's all Sega's fault their creator has left the company! The same goes to us, the Sega stars! What about our reputations! We have got those you know!

Sonic : If you really think that I would ever save a human princess thinking it's a mix species couple thing from beauty and beast, consider that for ruining my life! My life is over! (runs away and cries)

Karen Erra : Mr. Sonic! Come back! I thought that...2006 would've been a great for you.

*flashback ends*

Grim : Now I finally remember. 2006 was the year that it was company's biggest mistake that it ever happened to Sonic. Where did this years went wrong? And I was hoping that Pluto considered to be a planet. But thanks to science, Pluto's reputation was far from over. Now I understand why the 06 has became a horrible year for Sonic, bad things happened. Eggman Nega might be on the loose. But there's more information on the computer. Take a look.

Moirai Albarn : Oh my God! Princess Elise and Dr. Ivo Robotnik passed away in the explosion of his newly battleship, quite known as Egg Carrier 06. How did two people and a bunch of robots went aboard on the battleship that exploded?

Grim : It's all because one thing that in that kind of theory Shadow. Maybe this was all part of the Solaris incident because of conspiracies and theories that are happening over Sonic's world. If this this hadn't been for the ancients' migration on Mobius, the Miracle Planet would have the Time Stones to cleanup Amaterasu's mess.

[Deadlock - Fumie Kumatani]

Maka : Mephiles knew that all along. Homura exactly knew that he was doing all of that. So what if the Solaris Project was just a start of the incident? Why would Homura be enstruted if she doesn't knows about her family, is she creation of Drawcia as well? A part human and part witch or something.

Grim : She wasn't a witch. She was a creation of Drawcia, the witch world, Walpurgisnacht, It was all part of the grand plan of the Drawcia Family ages ago. Homura Akemi, the girl in the year 11 is the only relative who has the powers to control time and space, and she could easily rewrite another universe!

Maka Albarn : What difference that it matters. If Homura Akemi was the only girl that has ever used Time Traveling powers, could she be a relative to the Time Eater, the same one that destroyed half of the ohkuboverse 1000 years ago?

Moirai Albarn : Yes, sister. The Time Eater might be the same as Mephiles, but it's also a relative to Homura Akemi, who has the same power as the entity does! Her powers will might work if the Time Stones would be in order!

(Sonic CD SFX : Time Warp)

Moirai Albarn : Ahh! That light!

Maka Albarn : Could that be the Time Eater?!

[Forth into the Black - Jun Senoue]

Maka Albarn : What's going on? Who is that?

Moirai Albarn : Mai Thi Hoang! Mabuki from Soul World! Are you here to time travel with us in the part of this incident that was spreading? Wait a minute, you're not Mai Thi Hoang. Where is she? What on earth did you--

Homura Akemi : The girl named Mai Thi Hoang is safe and cured, she's fine from Erazor Djinn's control. But I am not that Mai Thi Hoang and best be sured that you will cooperate in the grand plan of fixing time and history.

Maka Albarn : So what do you want us before?

Homura Akemi : 2006. This is year, I am going to clean up the mess to this entire incident caused by Solaris. With the pseudo god of time collapsed by three hedgehogs, I will clear up all of the evidence and fix this year's greatest mistake. And do not even forget my introduction.

Maka Albarn : So you got a name to introduce your self.

Homura Akemi : Homura Akemi, I time traveled to fix up the mess caused by conspiracings and theories happened from the Solaris Incident. The incident that happened when Sonic 06 existed. I'm looking for Solaris the Flame of Hope, before the Time Eater does.

Maka Albarn : Wait, the Time Eater?

Homura Akemi : Yes, the Time Eater. The Time Traveling entity and destroyer of all universes, who happens to be my father.

Maka Albarn : What! The Time Eater's your....Father!?

*Buzzing*

Voice : Transmission Interrupted.
