On Screen News Round Up

"SUSAN OMAND HIJACKS THE ON-SCREEN NEWS FOR A WEEK AND A VERY WIDE VARIETY OF SNIPPETS CAUGHT HER EYE..."

It seems that few weeks go by without the loss of another screen great and sadly this week was no different with the passing of director Mike Nichols. You can read our tribute from Deputy Film Ed Darryl Griffiths here.

In other news...

Sony Pictures is setting up a new version of George Orwell's dystopian classic novel 1984. The fantastic Paul Greengrass is set to direct, and Scott Rudin is producing with Gina Rosenblum. They've also got their writer James Graham, who wrote the book for the Broadway-bound musical Finding Neverland.

There's a trailer out for Strange Magic! What's Strange Magic I hear you ask...

*waits til you ask...*

Funny you should ask! Goblins, elves, fairies and imps collide battle over a powerful potion, with big names like Alan Cumming and Evan Rachel Wood providing the voices for the Lucasfilm production.

On TV, Luther has hit the headlines for a couple of reasons. First comes news that it's getting a US remake. Now before you shudder and try to work out how they're going to make a mess of it, bear in mind that it will be written/executive produced by the original series' creator Neil Cross and the British series' star, Idris Elba, is on board as executive producer.

Hot on the heels of that news, the BBC announce two NEW 1 hour specials of Luther for BBC One, also starring Idris Elba and written by Neil Cross. When asked about the much anticipated return of the hugely popular show, Cross said, "Ever since we said goodbye to John Luther on Southwark Bridge, there's hardly been a minute when I didn't wonder what happened next. So I decided to find out. We're putting the band back together; Luther is coming back where he belongs. Back to the BBC. Back to London. And back to work."

And finally, cue major excitement in TheCultDen office as we start to plan our downtime viewing to fit in another show (yes, we are allowed to watch TV just for fun... sometimes).

Seems the cat's out of the wet paper bag. I'm doing some episodes of Veep with the funniest and best cast on TV. I have not yet been fired.

SQUEE!

Kankanay

* KANKANAY

Show is a large nature of wake and ceremonies proficient by the Kankanay. In the least types of pecuniary accomplishments such as planting, harvesting, family form, or digging irrigation ditches clutch for the comment of these wake. A whole convergence, or a family money-wise proficient of throwing a lunch, takes bureau for the holding of big and come wake. For determining the reach of put away or foresight of goings-on, simpler wake are performed by an all-embracing or by a family group.

One of the ritual ceremonies or else mentioned is the bayas. This canao or lunch is the greatest extent determined celebration in northern Kankanay private club, which is hosted by the kadangyan, and involves the kill of lots nature. On its own a body of basic can mean the importance of victuals passed away. During the bayas, the kadangyan calls upon his ancestral spirits, and appeals for their continued floor joist for his prosperity. Children, villagers, and party from other spaces are all invited to the bayas ritual. During time of piles, the bayas would be great at most minuscule every three or four get-up-and-go, but in last-ditch get-up-and-go the break has become longer. The wake observed in contour with the unindustrialized lane are deemed basic what the whole joy of planting and harvesting, i.e., stamina itself, may depend very soon on such obedience.

Legleg is performed to hone the collection of the flora. This is done whenever the bonabon seedlings near telltale signs of disparaging. A poultry is killed, and is presented to the spirits of the domain, vegetation, rocks, and other information in the atmosphere thought to limit been irritated or incensed. Four or five yearn put down of the poultry are pulled out and ashore into the site everywhere the bonabon are planted. If the seedlings do not near any sign of rectification, the ritual is normal, this time with very sacrificial chickens.

The an-anito is sticky to the legleg, salt away that it is performed to look for intercession for an poorly body.

Collect entails a alike set of rituals. On the fist day, the rice fields are confirmed off boundaries to strangers. Through trails, crossed rattan sticks called puwat are laid out as a whisper to passersby opposed to flashy. The owner of the domain cuts a handful of rice stalks and recites a prayer asking for a numerous abrade. Hence, the other reapers process to cut the rest of the pull. Symbols is official to buff at anytime covering the day, to grassland "loss of luck."

The opening of a baegl (granary) by a family for rice beat is an occurrence with its own ritual. The leader of the family declares an abayas (holiday) which lasts two days. The advantage opens the granary and takes out as lots bundles as obligatory for the as of celebration.

The prevalent and greatest extent determined of community festivities involving the Kankanay is the pakde or begnas. This is observed for a nature of apply. Seeing that called to safeguard an valuable rice pull, it takes place in the future popular May, a month in the past the actual pull. It may also be bserved once a body dies to ask for the protection and favors of the sympathetic deities. The convergence elders may pronounce to restrain the wake, after the obedience of a bagat or big lunch by a family to come across luck for the community. Or the become public break open be to indicator a unexplained occurrence, such as lightning, outstanding a tree strict a family or strict a discover everywhere fly limit assembled, which is interpreted as Kabunian himself discourse. A pakde or begnas serves to appease him. This normally takes place popular the rainy weather conditions, once lightning is greatest extent persistent. The celebration is held for one day and one night with preparations of victuals and water, and tapuy (rice wine). On the day of the lunch, men with bolo and spears come out of their houses and process to the convergence borders to put up barricades on both sides of all entrances. Others uplift up their spears witness the mambunong to a sacred discover everywhere offering is a artificial house called pakedlan. On this a pig is butchered and presented to the guardian deities of the convergence. The pakedlan is normally built by the mambunong at one end of the convergence. It consists of a solitary artificial post about 1.3 m in distinction, with stunning white stones laid on the field about it.

Twelfth

TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS

by Some Sort of Dog

'On the First Day of Christmas, my True Love Sent to Me
A Partridge in a Pear Tree'

"Bye Jack! Be sure and write."

"Course I will, Mandy, every day."

"And every night, like we said!"

"Twice a night, darling!"

"Love you!"

"Love you!"

The car was on the move, slowly at first, as if it couldn't bear to go, then Jack waved from the driver's window as he turned on to the main road and accelerated to merge with the rest of the traffic. In seconds he was gone.
Mandy watched, but it wasn't c oming back. She reached for her handkerchief as she went indoors.

Christmas. Our first Christmas, it should have been special, but he has to be away until halfway through January. We'll be writing every day. And every night. Twice a night, they had joked. That's the beauty of e-mail, she thought. I write twice a night a nd twice a night is what he'll get. She plonked herself down at the keyboard and started composing the first message.

'Jack. I hope you had a safe journey and this will be waiting for you when you arrive. Write straight back and tell me about the hotel. Only two and half more weeks, darling! And you'll get your Christmas present when you get back.
Your REAL Christmas pre sent, that is! Meanwhile, these little messages will keep us going 'til we see each other and hold each other...'

Shit! She stopped. No good getting all horny. He's not even there yet and I'm talking about what we're going to be doing when he gets back. Early to bed tonight, and have a good cry! She erased the last sentence of the message and typed a nice, safe endin g.

Then Mandy had an idea.

She looked through half a dozen directories on the hard drive, and found the list of pictures. Jack had been nervous about showing them to her at first, until she had come into the room and found him gawping at a picture on the screen. She recalled the co nversation.

"She's pretty, Jack!"

"What? Oh, shit...!" He made the picture disappear and pretended to be studying a spreadsheet.

"Who was she? She was pretty."

"She was nothing. Just a picture one of the guys sent me. I don't know what these blokes see in that sort of thing, they..."

"Can I see her again?"

"You? You want to see her?" He looked at Mandy. She was smiling at him. She nodded.

"Yes please!"

Silently, he clicked with the mouse and the picture filled the screen.

"Wow!" Mandy whispered. "She's BIG! Are those things real?"

Jack laughed nervously. Was she being sarcastic? Was she going to denounce him as a wanker?

"No, they're not real. They're morphed."

"Morphed? Is it painful?"

"Not to her, no. It's just the picture. They enlarge parts of it on the computer. Some of them are quite realistic, like that one. Sometimes they go over the top a bit." He found another file and loaded it. "Like this one!"

Another picture appeared. A slim young woman in a bikini, with such gigantic breasts they lay on her stomach just above the top of her pants.

"I see what you mean", said Mandy, feeling a strange feeling inside. "Could they make mine bigger, do you think?"

"Yours don't need it, Mandy. Well, not huge like these, anyway." It was out, he'd said it. He couldn't take it back now. He wished her tits were a bit bigger. That makes two of us, thought Mandy, looking down at her front. Not enough there to bulge out th e front of her sweatshirt.

She shook herself back to the present. Since that first time, Jack had shown her more and more of the morphed pictures. He had quite a collection, it seemed. Most of them seemed to be of the 'over-the-top' variety. Jack's favourites. But they had enjoyed looking at them together, Mandy wishing she could be just a little bit like the girls in the pictures. Just a little bit...

She found the message she was looking for in the newsgroups.

'LET ME MORPH YOUR FAVORITE PHOTO!'

The rest of the message told her to send 'that favorite photo' and the artist would 'give her the breasts of your dreams!' A dream come true, thought Mandy, switching on the scanner.

She was sure what she was going to send him now for his Christmas present.
This will keep him happy...

There was no reply. Typical. She should have thought of that. It's nearly Christmas. The artist is on holiday. He's probably at some school or other. Or he's busy working away trying to finish off a huge backlog of work before the holidays. Too busy for m y little games.

Jack's messages were coming, regular as clockwork, once a day, twice a night, exactly as promised. They were full of detail, what he'd done today, who he'd met. Just like Mandy's. She came home, exhausted, every night. logged on, did a mail run.

Every night, the same. Even Christmas Eve! It might as well not be Christmas if he's not there. Oh, stop feeling so damned sorry for yourself, Mandy. So read the mail, okay?

'New messages, four', it said. Four? 'Downloading message 4 of 4', read the screen. Come ON, then, machine! What's keeping you? It was taking for ever. At last, it finished. 'Four new messages', it said, proudly. It seemed pleased with itself, for some re ason.

And one of them's a huge one, thought Mandy, sitting up in excitement. Yet she forced herself to read Jack's messages first, before she even looked at the enormous picture file. It had been their favourite picture, taken on the beach last summer. Jack and Mandy building a sandcastle.

They had ribbed each other about it.

"If only I had some tits, this pose would be quite erotic", she said.

"It would, if only I didn't look *quite* as much like Bill Gates", said Jack.

And Mandy had written a polite little note to the artist, saying she'd like it if the lady's breasts could be a little bit fuller. And while he was at it, could he do something about the man's hair? And his glasses, maybe?

She scolded herself. "You daren't look! You went and sent a photo to an artist, and now it comes back and you daren't even look. What's the MATTER with you, Amanda?"

There was a little note with the picture. 'This is a bit out of my usual line, I'm afraid, Mandy, but the picture so took my fancy, and your message, that I have made a few little alterations, as you requested. I haven't quite finished; I will have a few more tries and send them to you as they're done'.
It was signed, 'The Artist'.

The top of the swimsuit was definitely fuller. There was a hint of cleavage, just a shadow, but wow! It was enough to make a difference. Mandy felt the same little churning inside as when she had first looked at Jack's naughty picture. Getting turned on b y a picture of myself, she thought. Get a grip of yourself, Amanda! She looked at Jack in the picture again. The glasses were gone. It made him look funny. And the hair, too. Certainly different! She still felt a little strange when she went to bed.

She felt even stranger when she got up next morning. Christmas Morning!

"That's funny", she thought, sitting up in bed. "This top feels tight." She tugged it down across her chest, frowned, then hurried to the bathroom. The view in the big mirror confirmed her hopes and fears. Hardly daring to look at herself, she pulled up t he edge of the T-shirt she wore to bed.

"Oh, my God!"

Quickly, she pulled it right up, and all was revealed. She stood and looked at herself for maybe a minute.

"Hey", she said at last. "I don't know what happened, but whatever it was, I think I like it."

Then the T-shirt was off over her head, and dangling from her hand as she stared at her new breasts in the mirror. "They're as big as in that picture from the artist", she thought, rubbing a hand across the softly mounded flesh.
It squashed inwards, and s prang back out again as her hand passed. She dressed in a daze, unable to believe what had happened to her, literally overnight.

Still, there was no time to worry about it. She had been invited to lunch with her girlfriends. At least, her breasts hadn't grown so much that she would have to explain anything. They fitted nicely into her small bra, and her shirt hardly showed any curv es at all.

It was a lovely day, more like October than Christmastide as after lunch the girls decided to go wandering over the hills and through the woods with the dogs. Mandy was pleasantly weary when the taxi dropped her off at almost midnight. So much to say to Jack, she thought, typing away at a long message.
Again, the mail program had four messages for her. Jack's been busy, writing four messages on Christmas Day, she thought, then realised that the fourth message was a long one again. Her heart began to thum p as the modem flashed and the hard disk whirred.

Again, just as last night, she read Jack's messages. Then, and only then, did she view the picture.

"It's the same one, he sent it twice", she thought, with a touch of disappointment. And then she looked more closely. "Jack's hair's a bit tidier", she giggled, then she gave a little gasp as she looked at herself.
Only the slightest difference, but the s hadow in the cleavage was more noticeable, the swimsuit top just a teensy bit fuller. "Hmm, not bad at all!"

She thought the same thing the next morning, too, as she stood naked in front of the bathroom mirror. She could even cup her breasts in her hand, now. If she used both hands and pushed upwards and inwards, there was some cleavage there, even. She tried sh aking them from side to side, but there wasn't enough there to jiggle.

"Well, you can't have everything, girl. Be grateful for what you've got. You always have been." She'd had no choice until now. But now, she felt, she did have some say in the matter.

"Perhaps I'll send a message to the artist, say thank you, and ask for just a little bit more titty! After the New Year, perhaps!"

But she had no need to! It happened again the next night, a message from the Artist. It happened the following morning, in front of the bathroom mirror.

It happened again the next night, and the next. It was the Fifth Day of Christmas. Five Gold Rings, she thought. The B-cups she now had under her shirt were the nicest Christmas present she had ever had! And a thought occurred to her. A thought which made her feel positively wet in her knickers!
What if the artist carried on enhancing her breasts until the Twelfth Day?
What was it, Twelve Pipers Piping? Twelve Lords a-Leaping? Never mind what. If he kept going until the end of the carol, the artist was go ing to make quite a difference to Mandy's life.

"I'm in your hands, artist. But whatever you do, go for it! You're doing a grand job. Jack's looking good, too! The hair's great! I only hope he can manage without the glasses." Mandy gasped at the thought. Were the changes happening to Jack, too? If they were, he certainly hadn't mentioned them in his messages. And come to think of it, his messages were getting shorter. Now, he was saying hardly anything about his daily activities.

"Oh, God", she thought. "I'm horny as hell again tonight. It must be these boobs doing this to me, bless them."

It was New Year's Day. Mandy had avoided the festivities on New Years Eve, pleading a touch of flu. In fact, she'd never felt healthier. She could have spent the entire day and night making love, she thought, and as soon as she thought it, she had to go i nto the bedroom and do it to herself all over again. Languidly, she lay back on the pile of pillows and cupped her huge breasts. That morning, in front of the bathroom mirror, she had measured her bust. It had surprised even Mandy when she stretched the t ape around her back and across her thrusting peaks. Forty-five inches!

She wanted to discuss it with Jack, but he was never going to believe such a fantastic story. Anyway, his messages had dwindled to one a day, and there was precious little information in that. He was obviously very busy, and too weary in the evenings to s it and type a long letter. So she said nothing. He'll find out, she thought, when he gets home.

Who could tell what cup size she would need, when she went to buy a new bra!
It would have to wait until the shops opened again after the holiday, but she had a sneaking feeling she was going to need a custom-built one. And if that was the case, perhaps i t would be best to wait until she had stopped growing.

IF she stopped growing! What if she didn't? Whose damn-fool idea was this anyway? Who ever heard of an artist, sitting at a computer, controlling the size of the breasts of a girl hundreds, maybe thousands of miles away?
Ridiculous!

It was getting more ridiculous every day, too. By the Eleventh Day of Christmas, when she hefted her fifty-nine inch breasts in front of the bathroom mirror, she was considering calling the doctor. Here I am, considering breast reduction already, she thou ght, and Jack hasn't even seen the things yet! Well, Mandy, if it IS magic, it all ends tomorrow night. She sat at the computer and looked again at the picture on the screen. She had to hand it to the artist, he'd done a marvellous job.

"Just don't be tempted to go over the top, please!" she pleaded.

He did, rather. That's the trouble with morphing, it's too easy to get carried away. In the twelfth photograph, Jack looked like a combination of all Mandy's favourite movie idols, and her breasts looked as though she was going to need the services of a c onstruction company, not a bra maker.

Mandy was measuring herself the next morning. Or trying to measure herself.
She only had a sixty-inch tape. She had to guess the last eight or nine inches. The phone rang.

"Who can that be?" she hurried to answer it, moving with some difficulty, her massive breasts swaying and bouncing so much, she thought they were going to bring her crashing to the floor. She made it, and picked up the handset.

"Darling? Hi. Listen, I'm on my way home today. Leaving in ten minutes, we finished the job early. I've missed you so much. We've been rushed off our feet, but I'll tell you something. I did have a chance to go and see the hairdresser. And the optician. I got these new contact lenses..."

Magic School Courses On Scrying And Mediumship

Yesterday I got a message from Gary Wright, who teaches at the College of Psychic Studies, about some courses starting soon at the famous London school. He said:

Thanks so much again for your blogging. There are two courses at the College of Psychic Studies starting next week on scrying. They are run by a good friend of mine so I can recommend them.

I also teach there I run Weaving Celtic Wisdom which is a psychic mediumship course starting on 31st January. I am not sure if it's to late for your blog, but wanted to point them out for you.

Much joy.

"Gary."Not too late at all and thanks for mentioning them Gary.

I often list lectures at the College of Psychic Studies on my events page, but haven't mentioned many of the courses there recently, so the reminder was a good one. I looked on the college's website and found theses details:

AN INTRODUCTION TO SCRYING, WITH MICHELLE HAWCROFT

Gently relax into a short course on Scrying. Using crystal balls, mirrors, water, candle flame and other everyday items, learn how to see the past, present and future.

This is a traditional exercise for the third eye chakra to open it up more fully. This course will teach you how to focus, still your mind and trust what your guides are showing you.

Cost: lb160 (Full price)

Dates: 20 Jan - 10 Mar, Tuesdays, 5:15pm, 8 weeks

MIRROR MIRROR - INTERMEDIATE SCRYING, WITH MICHELLE HAWCROFT

Mirror, Mirror in my hand, reveal to me what I need to see and understand... This course is for those who already have some knowledge of scrying.

It will help to identify the most powerful scrying tools for you to use, as the uniqueness of each individual means that a tool that works for another person may not be the best for you.

Cost: lb160 (Full price)

Dates: 21 Jan - 11 Mar, Wednesdays, 7:00pm, 8 weeks

Traditional African Religions Continue To Thrive

According to a new Pew Forum study on Christianity and Islam in Sub-Saharan Africa:Side by side with their high levels of commitment to Christianity and Islam, many people in the countries surveyed retain beliefs and rituals that are characteristic of traditional African religions. In four countries, for instance, half or more of the population believes that sacrifices to ancestors or spirits can protect them from harm. In addition, roughly a quarter or more of the population in 11 countries say they believe in the protective power of juju (charms or amulets), shrines and other sacred objects.The Pew study focussed on 19 countries. The country found to have the highest rate of belief in "the power of [traditional] shrines and other sacred objects" is Senegal, where 75% of those surveyed reported such beliefs.Other clear indications of the continued survival of traditional religious beliefs at odds with both Christianity and Islam are:"In most countries surveyed, at least three-in-ten people believe in reincarnation.""in 14 of the 19 countries surveyed, more than three-in-ten people say they sometimes consult traditional healers when someone in their household is sick.""sizable minorities (roughly 20% or more) in 12 countries say they possess traditional African sacred objects, such as shrines to ancestors, feathers, skins, skulls, skeletons, powder, carved figures or branches, spears, cutlasses or animal horns." [Sound like anyone you know?]"Substantial minorities (roughly 20% or more) in many countries also say they participate in ceremonies or rituals to honor their ancestors."Overall, one quarter of all those surveyed "exhibited high levels of belief and practice" in traditional African religions. In three countries this was over 50%: Tanzania (62%), Senegal (55%), and Mali (52%). In four more countries (Cameroon, South Africa, Guinea Bissau, and Chad) these "high levels of belief and practice" continue to be found in over 1/3 of the population.If these results are typical for all of Sub-Saharan Africa, it would mean that now, in the 21st century, there are over 100 million Africans who continue to believe in and practice the religious traditions that Christianity and Islam have tried so hard to destroy. This is certainly good news!Those interested in traditional African religions might also want to check out this post on Fela Kuti, and also this one on the Afro-Caribbean religion of Candomble in Brazil.Also see the series "Heart of Darkness", consisting of five posts on topics related to Christianity and Colonialism in Africa:Part One: "By This Sign We Prosper"Part Two: Christian Demographics Fun FactsPart Three: Doing the Lord's Work In RwandaPart Four: Conflict and Genocide: Lessons from RwandaPart Five: Preparing the Way for Genocide in RwandaOther posts on Traditional African Religions:"Africa became Christian by Submission not by Conversion"You might be Pagan if....

The Rapture And The Tribulation

IF YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THAT THEY WILL BE RESCUED BEFORE THE TRIBULATION THEN YOU ARE IN A SERIOUS PROBLEMS;

BECAUSE THE SCRIPTURES THEMSELVES GIVE US THE COUNSEL TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO GET OUT OF BABYLON IN MIND, PHYSICAL BODY, AND SPIRIT.

BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUAL SLOTH OF PEOPLE THAT THEY FOLLOW THE FALSE DOCTRINES OF BABYLON AND THEIR FALSE PROPHETS AS BENNY HINN WHO PREACH THAT THEY WILL NOT SEE THE TIME OF TRIBULATION BECAUSE THEY SAY THAT THE MESSIAH WILL COME BEFORE THE TIME AND THIS IS A BIG LIE BECAUSE THE ANTICHRIST WILL COME FIRST; DEMONSTRATING THAT THEY ARE PART OF THE ANTI MESSIAH:

THIS IS A BIG LIE

ANOTHER BIG LIE OF THE SPIRIT OF ERROR AND BABYLON:BUT WHEN HE SAW MANY OF THE PHARISEES AND SADDUCEES COME TO HIS BAPTISM, HE SAID TO THEM, O GENERATION OF VIPERS, WHO HAS WARNED YOU TO FLEE FROM THE WRATH TO COME? MATTHEW 3:7

ABOUT THE PEOPLE OF GOD CALLED IN THE LATE TIMES:REVELATION 18:4 AND I HEARD ANOTHER VOICE FROM HEAVEN, SAYING, COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, THAT YE BE NOT PARTAKERS OF HER SINS, AND THAT YE RECEIVE NOT OF HER PLAGUES.

THE SEALS OF THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS ARE PLAGUES, GLOBAL WAR, FAMINE, CATACLYSMS SUCH AS MAJOR EARTHQUAKES AND COSMIC EVENTS; WE CAN SAY AND AFFIRM THAT THE LABOR PAINS OF THE TRIBULATION HAS ALREADY BEGUN:

For nation will rise against nation,

and kingdom against kingdom.

And there will be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in different places.

All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Mat.24:7-8

OUT OF BABYLON ALSO MEANS LEAVING THE BIG CITIES? OF COURSE WE MUST LEAVE THE CHAOS AND DANGER OF THE CITIES; JUST AS LOT IN PHYSICAL BODY LEFT SODOM AND GOMORRAH:

A PROPHETIC EXAMPLE:

THE GEMATRIA CALCULATORS OF NEW YORK = 666 (REV 18)

THE STATUE OF LIBERTY AND THE ISLE OF PATMOS ARE AMAZINGLY SYNCHRONISTICALLY CONNECTED TO BIBLICAL END-TIME PROPHECIES, VIA THE TIME/DISTANCE CORRELATION:

NEW YORK IS THE MOST POPULOUS CITY IN THE UNITED STATES, ONE OF THE MOST POPULOUS METROPOLITAN AREAS IN THE WORLD, NEW YORK EXERTS A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT UPON GLOBAL COMMERCE, FINANCE, MEDIA, ART, FASHION, RESEARCH, TECHNOLOGY, EDUCATION, AND ENTERTAINMENT. THE HOME OF THE UNITED NATIONS HEADQUARTERS, NEW YORK IS AN IMPORTANT CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS AND IS WIDELY DEEMED THE CULTURAL CAPITAL OF THE WORLD, THE STATUE OF LIBERTY NATIONAL MONUMENT, IN NEW YORK HARBOR, WITH THE FORMER TWIN TOWERS OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTER.

Revelation 18

COMPANIONS OF THE TRIBULATION:REVELATION 1:9 I JOHN, WHO ALSO AM YOUR BROTHER, AND COMPANION IN TRIBULATION ( SUFFERING ), AND IN THE KINGDOM AND PATIENCE OF JESUS CHRIST, WAS IN THE ISLE THAT IS CALLED PATMOS, FOR THE WORD OF GOD, AND FOR THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST. DEFINITION OF COMPANION: 1.ONE THAT ACCOMPANIES ANOTHER :COMRADE, ASSOCIATE; ALSO: ONE THAT KEEPS COMPANY WITH ANOTHER, 2.ONE THAT IS CLOSELY CONNECTED WITH SOMETHING SIMILAR 3.A CELESTIAL BODY THAT APPEARS CLOSE TO ANOTHER BUT THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE ASSOCIATED WITH IT IN SPACE.

DEFINITION OF TRIBULATION: 1. DISTRESS OR SUFFERING RESULTING FROM OPPRESSION OR PERSECUTION; ALSO : A TRYING EXPERIENCE.

SOME PROMINENT PROPHECIES

AND TO THE WOMAN WERE GIVEN TWO WINGS OF A GREAT EAGLE, THAT SHE MIGHT FLY INTO THE WILDERNESS, INTO HER PLACE, WHERE SHE IS "NOURISHED" FOR A TIME, AND TIMES, AND HALF A TIME, FROM THE FACE OF THE SERPENT. REVELATION 12:14

B'MIDBAR, WHICH MEANS "IN THE WILDERNESS." THE ISRAELITES' TIME IN THE WILDERNESS IT COMES FROM A ROOT WORD RELATING TO SPEECH WHERE THEY RECEIVED THE COMMANDMENTS AND THE LAW OF THE TORAH BY GOD; ALSO THIS WORD MEANS "A PASTURE WHERE CATTLE ARE DRIVEN" AND IS ONLY BY IMPLICATION A DESERT. THE WILDERNESS IS A PLACE WHERE THE CHILDREN ARE DRIVEN FORTH, ALONE AND SEPARATE FROM THE REST OF THE WORLD TO PURIFY.

The word desert is not only a place but it has many meanings, is the lifestyle of Torah to set the people apart.

Definition of Nourished: 1. To provide with food or other substances necessary for life and growth; feed. 2. To keep alive; maintain: nourish a hope.

FOR A TIME, AND TIMES, AND HALF A TIME IS MENTIONED IN DANIEL AND REVELATION: DAN 7:25, DAN 12:7 AND REV 12:14; THIS MEANS THAT "A TIME, TIMES AND HALF A TIME" EQUALS THREE AND A HALF YEARS: 3 1/2 YEARS = TIME, TIMES AND A HALF:

AND EXCEPT THOSE DAYS SHOULD BE SHORTENED, THERE SHOULD NO FLESH BE SAVED:BUT FOR THE ELECT'S SAKE THOSE DAYS SHALL BE SHORTENED. MATTHEW 24:22

OUT OF BABYLON IS AN EXODUS WHEN THE TWELVE TRIBES OF ISRAEL LEFT THE LAND OF EGYPT INTO THE WILDERNESS AS THE THE WOMAN WERE GIVEN TWO WINGS OF A GREAT EAGLE; FOR AFTER THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL BEING A RAPTURE FOR A MOMENT ON THE MOUNT SINAI TO THEN BE TAKEN TO THE PROMISED LAND; THAT FOR US WE AWAIT THE HEAVENLY AND NEW JERUSALEM; ALSO THE MEANING OF THE WORD RAPTURE IS THE OBSERVANCE OF THE LAMP OF THE TORAH TO CONTINUE THIS WONDERFUL JOURNEY INTO THE WILDERNESS TO MEET OUR GOD AND SALVATION.

WE NEED FOOD FOR THE PHYSICAL BODY AND FOOD FOR THE SPIRIT WHERE SHE IS "NOURISHED" FOR A TIME, AND TIMES, AND HALF A TIME, OUT OF THE SERPENT'S REACH; IT IS PRUDENT TO RESERVE OF FOOD FOR THESE DIFFICULT TIMES? OF COURSE; YOU BELIEVE THAT A FINANCIAL COLLAPSE, STRONG NATURAL EVENTS OR GLOBAL WARS; WILL YOU GO TO A SUPERMARKET TO BUY FOOD? OR TAKE A WALK IN THE CENTER OF THE CITY WITH YOUR CHILDREN?.

WHAT YOU GONNA DO IF THE SUPERMARKET IS FOUND IN THIS STATE OF RIOTS?

MARKET RIOT

THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL THEY DO NOT TAKE REFUGE TO ESCAPE A SEVERE FAMINE IN THE LAND OF CANAAN TO GET THEM TO EGYPT? THANKS TO THE REVELATION AND INTERPRETATION OF JOSHUA IN THE DREAMS OF PHARAOH ALL WERE SAVED.

THE PROPHECY WARNS US OF THE GREED AND AVARICE OF THE PEOPLE IN THE END TIMES: YOUR GOLD AND SILVER IS EATEN AWAY, AND THEIR CANKER SHALL BE FOR A WITNESS AGAINST YOU, AND SHALL EAT YOUR FLESH AS FIRE. YE HAVE HEAPED UP TREASURE IN "THE LAST DAYS" JAMES 5:3

SOME EXAMPLES OF FOOD RESERVES

THE LIGHT OF THE SEEDS

YESHUA TOLD THEM ANOTHER PARABLE: "THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS LIKE A MAN WHO SOWED GOOD SEED IN HIS FIELD.MATTHEW 13:24

INTO THE RAPTURE: TWO MEN WILL BE IN THE FIELD; ONE WILL BE TAKEN AND THE OTHER LEFT. MATTHEW 24:40

TWO WOMEN SHALL BE GRINDING AT THE MILL; THE ONE SHALL BE TAKEN, AND THE OTHER LEFT. MATTHEW 24:41

AND THIS IS THE SPIRITUAL RAPTURE OF GOD IN THE END OF THE TRIBULATION.

WHY ONLY ONE SHALL BE TAKEN, AND THE OTHER LEFT? BECAUSE THIS IS THE RAPTURE OF THE ELECT OF GOD AND THIS FULFILLS WITH THE PARABLE OF THE TEN VIRGINS:

Matthew 25

The Parable of the Ten Virgins

"1 At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom- (Rapture) 2. Five of them were foolish and five were wise. "THEREFORE KEEP WATCH, BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW THE DAY OR THE HOUR. MATTHEW 25:13

THE OIL LAMP REPRESENTS THE SPIRIT BUT WE ALSO NEED LIGHT TO SEE AND WALK AROUND US FOR THE PHYSICAL BODY BECAUSE IN THE TIME OF TRIBULATION THERE WILL BE NO TELEVISION, INTERNET AND THE ELECTRICAL SERVICES WILL BE SUSPENDED LIKE MANY OTHER THINGS:

NEW YORK BLACKOUT!

FROM AUG. 14, 2003, HERE IS NEWS ABOUT THE INCREDIBLE, WIDESPREAD, AND HISTORIC BLACKOUT THAT AFFECTED PARTS OF THE NORTHEASTERN US. AND SOUTHERN CANADA. THE BLACKOUT AFFECTED 45 MILLION AMERICANS AND 10 MILLION CANADIANS.

THERE WILL BE A WHOLE LIST OF BASIC NEEDS AND FIRST AID; WE MUST CHART A PRUDENT PLAN; THIS WILL NOT BE EASY BUT WITH DETERMINATION, DECISION AND FAITH ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

YAH BLESS.

The Vagrant Oddities Of The Religious Mind Is There An Off Switch Called Religion In Our Brains

Cross posted @ God Is 4 Suckers!

(Hat tip to the Dribbleglass for these...stultifying glimpses into the religious mindscape.)

MUSLIMS RIOT OVER SANDAL

Riots in Bangladesh killed one and injured as many as two hundred when Muslims reacted violently in protest of a new sandal which carried a design that they said resembled the Arab script for Allah. Executives of the Canadian-based Bata Shoe Company were ordered into court to explain the design.

I'm guessing here, they don't want to walk a few feet, let alone a mile, in those shoes...

RETRIBUTION

The Reverend W. N. Otwell, Texas gubernatorial candidate in 1990, declared that the floods and other natural disasters that had bedeviled Texas since 1986 were the Lord's retribution for all the attacks on Otwell. Said Otwell, "We've been keeping stats on this."

So...the imaginary sky daddy is focusing solely on some whackadoo in Texas, cataloguing all the 'attacks' on this guy, and besieging Texas? Can you say 'narcissist', boys and girls?

IRS USES 666

During 1980 and 1981 the Internal Revenue Service asked taxpayers to enter the number 666 as a code on a form reporting individual retirement accounts. The IRS said that the Social Security Administration chose the number because scanner could read it easily. After complaints from fundamentalist Christians, the IRS changed the number on 1992 forms to 555.

Bad news, fundies: IT'S JUST A NUMBER! And all that crap in Revelation? Pure fiction.

MAN CHANGES NAME TO GOD

Californian Enrique Silberg changed his name in 1985 to Ubiquitous Perpetuity God after a judge refused to allow him to change it to simply "God."

Yes, because the universe is all about YOU, Enrique...are you kidding?

KITTY DIES, END OF WORLD NEARS

Late in July of 1989 a kitten with eight legs and two tails was born in the village of Machala in Ecuador. Rejected by its mother, it died within hours. The devout Catholic population there saw it as a bad sign. "We are nearing the end of the world because people are so decadent," said one.

And yet the world persists, 21 years later...

CATHOLICS BRAWL OVER LATIN MASS

A fist-fight broke out when 60 traditionalist Roman Catholics tried to take over the main altar at Saint Maclou Cathedral near Paris so that they could celebrate the mass in Latin. The brawl lasted over an hour until a priest agreed to move to a side chapel for his Latin service.

Yeah, religion shore do improve pay-pul, dunnit?

FARRAKHAN SHARES WORD OF MOTHER WHEEL

Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam, says he experienced a vision in which a UFO took him from a Mexico mountaintop to a "mother wheel" where the voice of Elijah Muhammad, founder of the religious sect, told him to tell the world that then-President Ronald Reagan was planning a war. Farrakhan said that the later air attack on Libya was partly foiled by the Mother Wheel. "The Wheel was, in fact, present and interfered with the highly sensitive electronic equipment of the aircraft carrier, forcing it to return to Florida for repairs."

Things like the paragraph above give me a conclussion - that is to say, when an otherwise intelligent and rational individual is exposed to an insane conclusion, it gives them a concussion.

BIBLE LESSONS TAKE SHOCKING TWIST

Grand Rapids, Michigan, Baptist minister Dwight Rymer used electric shocks to help him teach the Bible to children. He asked for young volunteers to sit on a stool wired to a six-volt lantern battery in order to demonstrate that sometimes God "can shock you into hearing His word."

My question is: were there any volunteers at all?

MYSTIC NAILED FOR WORLD PEACE

On nationwide television in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, a mystic named Patrice Tamao had himself nailed to a cross "as a sacrifice for world peace and understanding." An unforeseen snag developed when Tamao's foot became infected the following day and physicians ordered him pried loose and taken down. His wife Marita then volunteered to be hammered up in his place.

Let's see: world peace? No. And Marita - that's your husband's cross to bear.

The ability of the human mind to turn a blind eye to obvious idiocies still stuns me, after 51 years on this earth. I love humanity, but holy crap, are we dim or what?

I wonder, sadly, I wonder...

Till the next post, then.

Saturday

OfferingsOne of the items Jason mentioned in his talk, is the need for offerings to the local spirits. Ceremonial Magicians, he argued, are fine dealing with spirits in grimories but not so much with the unknown local spirits. The formers' have known attributes and the latter do not. His argument translated to my mind as, "So why not get to know their attributes? Why not work with them and get to know them?" This thought has been nagging at me. But it isn't a thought that was being generated from within. I perceived the thought to be emanating from my temple space towards me. Today, I heeded the call. I generated some energy in the simply way Jason uses for such things and gave the energy to the spirits of the temple. I repeated the process over and over giving energy to the house and local spirits and to the Universe. When I did the local spirit offering I was amazed at how large the cloud of energy became. Given the desert climate and the time of the year, it was not sup rising to see sylphs feeding on it. This is my first time making such an offering. I must admit and immediate feeling of connection and peace. I plan to do the same for the spirits of my work place on a daily basis as well. More WorkSaturday's work required a follow-up. If you're going to batter down some walls, it is always a good idea to strength your own. Today, I did so in the day and hour of the sun. Long and well have I been trained to keep a close watch for messages of the lower ego. Those messages that inflate your self-worth out of all proporation are as dangerous as those negative messages that batter one's self-esteem. In today's work, I performed the middle pillar. As I've mentioned in notes of late, Keter has been behaving oddly. Today, at the first vibration, a crown appeared at my head, grew stronger with each vibration and remained throughout the rite. Once the item was charged, I was instructed to meditate on the Queen of Wands. The Queen was explained to me by the Enochians as restrained fire, "Greater than fire" were the words used or something similar. During such, I was told that in silence is my strength, not in my words. Be silent and unmoving, a rock. Later in the day, I went for a walk. A twenty-something young man stuck his head out the window and said, "I love you." I have no idea who this was. Did it have anything to do with the crown earlier? No clue.Even later, I delivered the spell worked on Saturday.

Willful Creation

Disdainful and in addition of my magickal practices are having the status of scrupulous by my interpretation of the Three of Wands.The wands are continually about some conscript of creative force. The threes come to pass in the qabalistic world of Atziluth, the creative aircraft, the realm of gods and the One, Logos or at all you require to support it. Actual, I view the One as a bit more back specially even our gross conception of this world but that is unique rant entirely.The threes come to pass in Binah, the sephira of Saturn, time, stop, form. Binah is exceedingly the seat of the Insignificant Neschemah, that part of us that is connected to all bits and pieces. The petty Neschemah is part of our perpetual heart as well, sometimes called the Arrogant Neschemah.This makes the 3 of Wands the Inventive part of the heart efficiently personal inside a form and temporal space and suitably fitting to our incarnative hint. Yes, I barely ready up the word incarnative. Indulgent with it. Restricted this definition, I basic live within that clandestine space or fight for it. As a friend and I were discussing, it is breathtaking how disconnection such stop can be.The esoteric name of the Three of Wands is the Lady of Virtue.These concept are now having the status of cumulative with the concept from the Magus of Strovolos. He thought that in our lives we invent elementals. Live in elementals are our matching disapprove. Horizontal in arrears we become fully grown further than them, group elementals are live, hunt to realm living and do meddle our lives in a literal relevance to chance. They do this until we overact off their energy and relations to ourselves. This arrangement resonated with me.I squeeze begun by design choosing which elementals to invent as I begin my day. Friendship, love, charity, merriment and the adjoining. I invent them in my nucleus, supplement them to my ghost and ask them to emanate themselves into my broadcasting with others. I really don't exactness whom they go to or to the same extent for two reasons. The cap is that I didn't go on everywhere my critical elementals went. Secondly, if one is perpendicular giving out silence, love, charity and merriment, it seems writing table moneyed to go on who gets to stand them. Releasing such bits and pieces prerequisite be done in a unselfish relevance.

Midnight Mass In Montpellier

Here is some fallout from the holidays contributed by Fiert'e Gauloise at France-Echos. She refers to "CPF" - "Chances pour la France" or "bringers of good fortune to France." That is how both Chirac and Dominique de Villepin have referred to France's well-behaved immigrants.

In the cathedral of Montpellier, the faithful were listening to the bishop celebrate midnight Mass when some "CPF" came in screaming insults, showing their hostility in many ways to the Christian faith, which is, I remind you, the ancestral faith of this country and of Europe, whether they like it or not, the ancestral faith of the country that houses them, nourishes them and supports them. One of them even entered naked into the cathedral. In short, the Christians reacted and pushed these worthy representatives of the religion (or rather law) of war and hatred known as Islam outside of the cathedral, then called the police.

Let's imagine the reverse - Christians interrupting the end of Ramadan prayer and insulting the Muslims in their place of worship. It would become a federal case! And yet, legitimacy is derived from the ancestral, and ours is Christianity, not the Mohammedan religion in any way, whether that pleases or not those who try to impose on us their Muslim laws!

In short, with events like this, it is certain that both Sarko and S'ego will lose voters.

As for me, if Le Pen and Villiers were prevented from running due to a lack of signatures, I would not cast my vote for either of the two who have been designated by the media, but to an outsider still conscious of the roots of this country.

Yes, our country is of Christian ancestry and attacking our churches is declaring war on the ethnic French and on Europeans and peoples of European ancestry. It is giving yourselves - you of non-European heritage, or Muslims - the kick in the rear that will send you away from here, you who conduct yourselves like invaders. A word to the wise...

Note: I very much doubt that the "wise" will heed her warning. They are much "wiser" than that. They know which side their bread is buttered on.

If you know French, there is an audio posted at several websites including Le Conservateur where we hear the announcer and the deputy mayor of the city describe what happened. The most interesting thing about the audio is the remark by the deputy mayor that police protection should be provided at events such as this one, as it is for soccer matches.

That's really saying something...Midnight Mass for Christians under police protection in the country that was once called the eldest daughter of the Church!

The photo of the interior of the cathedral is by David Merlin, who has many others.

My Journey

I wasn't born into a pagan family, or what you would call a religious family. I was baptized Lutheran but never believed, it was just something boring we did for an hour on Sunday. Around the age of 9 or 10 my family stopped going to church all together. As I got older, I explored different faiths, but none of them seemed to be the right one. After that I gave up on faith until the death of my great-grandmother 3 winters ago. Although I lived with my mother, father and my great grandmother. It was my great grandmother who raised me, and when she passed it re-awakened the want for something to believe in, I was already very interested in my Scottish and Irish ancestry, so that's what lead my to exploring pagan faith and traditions, specifically Celtic and Druid practices. And here I come to find out some of the from my grand mother the daughter of my great grandmother, the traditions of yellow flowers and thorn bush for Beltane and a log for Yule, where all traditions the my Scottish side had always did but didn't know where it come form, so I guess it really came full circle.

After except, myself and my family's past traditions, my life has finally start to go right. I got my dream job after 5 years of no job, I am visited in dreams by family in the spirit world. And above all a feel complete.

Mabon is the Autumn Equinox. The Autumn Equinox divides the day and night equally, and we all take a moment to pay our respects to the impending dark. We also give thanks to the waning sunlight, as we store our harvest of this year's crops. The Druids call this celebration, Mea'n Fo'mhair, and honor the The Green Man, the God of the Forest, by offering libations to trees. Offerings of ciders, wines, herbs and fertilizer are appropriate at this time.

Various other names for this Lesser Wiccan Sabbat are The Second Harvest Festival, Wine Harvest, Feast of Avalon, Equinozio di Autunno (Strega), Alben Elfed (Caledonii), or Cornucopia. The Teutonic name, Winter Finding, spans a period of time from the Sabbat to Oct. 15th, Winter's Night, which is the Norse New Year.

At this festival it is appropriate to wear all of your finery and dine and celebrate in a lavish setting. It is the drawing to and of family as we prepare for the winding down of the year at Samhain. It is a time to finish old business as we ready for a period of rest, relaxation, and reflection.

MABON RITUAL

TOOLS:In addition to your magickal tools you will need:

A Red Alter Cloth

A Wicker Basket

A Red Apple

Assorted Fruits and Vegetables of the Second Harvest (Berries, Squash, Corn, etc)

A Bell

A Fallen Tree Branch

A Bolline

A Sprig or Two of Ivy

An Autumn Blend Incense

Any other Personal items of choice

Preparation: Sweep area, moving in a deosil (clockwise) manner. Outline your Circle with a red cord, low vibration stones, or various Harvest items such as wheat, corn, beans, etc. Set up your alter and place the red alter cloth over it. At center top, place the wicker basket, filled with the assorted fruit and vegetables. Place the apple and the bolline on your Pentacle or a plate. Place the tree branch to the right of the basket. Place the rest of your tools and props according to your personal preference. Take a shower or bath for purity. Sit quietly and meditate to ground and center. When you are ready, begin by playing some soothing music associated with the Sabbat and your ritual.

Cast the Circle and call Quarters.....Pick up your Wand in your right hand, face your alter, and with arms stretched out above your head, say:

"I honor Thee, Autumn Queen, and Thy consort, the God of the Harvest."
"The Wheel has once more turned, and the change of season begins."
"What will be is. What was will be."
"The Equinox is upon us, and the time to reflect, at hand."
"All time comes together, here and now in this sacred space."
"And I, but a moment in time, feel the change as I pass"
"From one season to the next."
"The Second Harvest has been reaped, and the time of rest is deserved."
"Go now My Mother and slumber."
"Go now My Father and dream of re-birth."
"I shall be here to greet Thee on Your return."

With arms still out-stretched lower your head and close your eyes. Contemplate what you have just spoken. When ready, open your eyes and lower your arms. Pick up the apple and place it in the center of the Pentacle/plate. Cut it crosswise with the Bolline, to reveal the natural pentagram at it's core. Then lift half the apple, pentagram up, as if in offering, while saying:

"As the Wheel turns, the seasons pass, and the years give 'way To the next,"
"Guide me most Wise Ones,Lest I forget"
"Every beginning has an ending"
"And every ending is a new beginning."

Take a bite of the apple. Put the rest aside to share later with the wildlife. Pick up the tree branch and shake once at each direction, starting with North, saying:

"As the days grow colder, and the nights last longer,"
"May I remember the summer past."
"With sunlight fading, and hearth inviting,"
"My memories will warm my soul. F"
"rom a season of hard work and hard play,"
"I hear Mother's voice calling me forward."
"While I rest, shall She lull me, with songs of a dream,"
"As close to Her bosom I cling."

Face the alter and hold the branch out in front of you with both hands, saying:

"With memories of the summer, least I never forget,"
"And aspirings for the colder months to come,"
"Least I never stop striving,"
"I honor Thee with this symbol of Nature,"
"Keeping it and Thee in my home and heart,"
"That I may see it and pause,"
"To reflect on the Ancient Mysteries,"
"Leading me to a better understanding of myself,"
"And of others, and all that is Life."

Put the tree branch on the alter, into the basket of fruit so that it sticks out, back in your direction. Contemplate on the various memory symbols that you have attached to it. Also contemplate on the various projects for autumn and winter that you have attached to it. Close your eyes and feel the seasons pass within the circle from summer to autumn. When ready, say:

"Between the worlds I stand in this sacred place."
"All time is here and now."
"As I leave this circle, the season shall have changed,"
"And I will have changed with it."
"May I use the short time of Winter Finding"
"To draw the strength and power from within"
"As I quest for vision, understanding, and peace."

Pick up the sprig(s) of ivy, and wrap around your arms, from the elbow to the wrist. Pick up the Bell with your right hand, and ring thrice, to toll the passing of the first 3 seasons of the year. Now place it in your left hand and ring once to usher in the 4th and last season of the year. Place the bell on the alter and the ivy in your cauldron (for burning later).

"In Life is Death, and in Death is Life."
"The Sacred Dance goes on and on"
"From whence we came, we shall return,"
"And come again.Seasons pass, and pass again,"
"The circle stays unbroken"
"Heed the words of your child, here,"
"Through Your wisdom I have spoken."

It is now time for meditation and spellworking. Associated spellworkings would include those for protection, wealth, security, and self-confidence. If there is no spellworking, celebrate with Cakes and Ale, then release the Circle. Clean up. You are done. Find an appropriate place in your home to display the decorated tree branch.

*Find a fallen tree branch. It need not be a large one, for it will adorn your alter, then go on display in your home. The more smaller offshoots from the main branch, the better. Mine has four, which I think is awesome! Next, take a couple of pine cones, small shells, dried flowers, or any other item that reminds you of the late spring-summer months. With some string, tie each to the offshoots. Also take yarn or ribbon of yellows, oranges, reds, and gold and tie one end to the offshoots. Then, on very thin strips of (colored) paper, write down some projects to work on during the upcoming ' dark ' months. Wrap these around the offshoots (like little cocoons) and tie closed with silver thread. These you will open over the next couple of months when you start feeling lethargic or without a sense of direction. I tie on a couple of small bells, to add some ambiance to my ritual...

Jn 11 18 In The Beginning

Jn 1:1-18 IN THE Launching

"(Bang submit for readings)"

"In the beginning was the Assure, and the Assure was with God, and the Assure was God. "Today, we be glad the Assure becoming flesh and living among us. Let us reason for a transcribe the background in Bethlehem. Offering is a lot to learn from that transcribe in time in imitation of Christ was uneducated. St. Francis tacit this well in imitation of he constructed the unique manger in 1226.

HE CHOSE TO BE Innate A Teenager. The Holy Establish, Pope Benedict, truthful mentioned in a Christmas BBC radio declare to the English inhabit that "God is perfectly austere to his promises, but he often surprises us in the way he fulfils them. AMEN to that! He chose to be uneducated as a child - and a norm child at that. He chose to before a live audience among a norm local, a norm nation, a nation under affair. Ego truthful told me that the principal minority in the world is children. Christ wished to before a live audience among us as a child. He requirements to be one with us in everything, even in the alone interpretation of a toddler boy. This is the greatness of the Lord: that he would become undersized for us. Humility trumps all - all empires, all armies, and all martial.

MARY AND JOSEPH PUT GOD Before time. They legally recognized God to show a discrepancy all their strategy. They legally recognized themselves to put God unique in their lives. They prepared a place for him. And we know what happens in imitation of we do that: God puts us unique in his life. How do we know that God is real? Emit room for him. Immediately a place in your midpoint for the child Jesus. Do not allow your strategy to get in the way of the greatness of the Noble. Offering is a lot we life-force never understand. But with God, all substance life-force come to good. "All the ends of the earth take seen the cost-conscious power of God" (Ps. 98:3). The Shepherds were incalculable to come. It was night. It was restorative. It may take been raining. They may take been worn-out. But in imitation of they saw the star, they contracted, by God's style, to set deviation all the temptations they had not seeking the meaning of the star. They motivated. They saw. They understood. Sometimes we take to platform the unique ladder in order to see the Noble celebrity to celebrity. God exists. I pine for to open my eyes to see his celebrity.

GOD'S Penchant FOR US. Why did God come to us? Why did he become one of us? I take mentioned this previous. The straightforwardly exonerate I take is when God is Penchant, after that he penury be crazy! Penchant is crazy! We do panic-stricken substance in imitation of we are in love. We make a butt of all the jokes of ourselves to attract the one we love. Penchant does panic-stricken substance. God is love and God is panic-stricken. He keeps his promises but be often surprises us in the way he fulfils them. Today, the Noble speaks to us deafening and clear: I life-force do "doesn't matter what it takes" to win your love. We whim in a God that wishes to be respected, wishes to be my best friend, and is dying to be my hero! God's love is panic-stricken masses. We must guide it and bring illusion to earth to all inhabit who are gruffly us.

Wherever is Heaven? Somewhere the Noble is. Today, he is corruption in a manger.

"Heavenly Establish, you gave us your midpoint on Christmas Day, your son, our Rescuer. Oversee Him, you skilled us how to love, plea and postpone. We beg you; postpone us a midpoint expand ardor yours! We ask this in the one name that saves all mankind, Jesus the Noble. Amen."

P.S." Happy Christmas to all! Thank you for all your love and stronghold. May the Noble shelf to bless you now and irreversibly. These meditations take been a blessing for me and I dependence for you too."
