It’s Thanksgiving again, and my thoughts are divided. Like our family, and the culture of this nation.
A day to remember, what God has provided. While waiting, to see the blessings to come.
A day to reflect, on the things we’ve lost. It could have been worse; we are thankful it was not.
It’s time to remember, the arguments at the table. And to let it go; do not hold it forever.
Think of our epic dreams, and the past we shared. The good we can do, and the future we can see.
Being thankful fuels our faith. It sees what we can be. It believes it will be so. In a future day to come.

We are justified in Christ There was only one law in the beginning. Just one. “But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”–Gen. 2:17 People want to act like God is some eternal killjoy,…
Abide in the Lord We all face trouble in life. It is something we can all agree upon. No matter who you are, something bad will eventually come to cause you trouble. Something will break your heart. Something will break you down. Something will make you crazy, concerned or confused. When we look at the…
Satan’s Insanity If you’ve read the Bible, you know that we have a spiritual enemy. Satan fell sometime after creation. We do not know exactly when, but it was because he desired to be “like the most High”. (Isa. 14: 12-17) He wants to be God. This desire led to his fall and corruption. It…
I oppose abusers with authority they don’t deserve.
I oppose narcissists with authority.
I oppose nit pickers who use authority to make life hard on people.
I oppose lying authority who deceive those under them.
I oppose authority who don’t obey the laws designed to protect the people.
I oppose authority who do not follow their own laws and rules.
Real authority doesn’t need to prove it has authority.
Real authority uses power to love and help people.
Real authority lifts people up.
Real authority is above reproach and doesn’t need to hide.
Hitler had authority.
Charles Manson had authority.
Priests who molest kids have authority.
Kings who murdered entire cultures had authority.
Abusive parents and spouses have authority.
Abusive pet owners have authority.
Abusive bosses have authority.
We should hate authority when it’s wrongly used or wrongly held.
Any authority figure who doesn’t agree is part of the problem.

We are called to forgive others. It is one of the hardest things we can be called to do.
“But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.” Matt. 6:15
We see an example of this in the parable of the servant who owed the King.
He could not pay the debt, so the king forgave him. Then, the servant turned around and refused to forgive a fellow servant, so the king removed his forgiveness and punished the unforgiving servant. —(Matt. 18:23-35)
This is scary business.
So, what do we do?
Well, like everything in life we turn to God. We ask him to teach us wisdom and lead us into all truth. (Prov. 3:5-6, James 1:5 John 16:13)
First we need to see what the ultimate forgiveness is. What forgiveness does the King offer?
Jesus Christ coming and dying on the cross for our sins. Dying to offer forgiveness to those who hate Him and killed Him. He says “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.” (Luke 23:24)
That is our image of forgiveness. To die, in order to forgive those who hate us and hurt us.
But hold on because God does not offer a general forgiveness. You must come to Him and bow the knee and ask him to save you and forgive you. You must confess Him as Lord. You must turn to Him. (Romans 10:9-10)
Do you remember Judas? Was he forgiven? He was a betrayer?
If he had ran to Jesus and ask for forgiveness, he would have been forgiven. But, we have no record of him doing that.
When you look at what God does, and you look at the parable in Matthew 18:23-35
You will see a pattern. In every case the guilty party asks for forgiveness, and/or offers to make things right. Then, forgiveness is given. Then, mercy is given.
Notice in the parable of the unforgiving servant.
“But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest. And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.” (Matt. 18:28-30)
The unforgiving servant, made it a point to go out and find any servant who owed him in a very small matter. Then, demanded payment. He refused to forgive, and sent the man to prison. This is a complete heart issue. This person did not understand the forgiveness offered. This person never knew the King.
Are you hunting down the person who owes you? Is it a petty matter? Are you choking them and demanding repayment for something that you no longer owe? (Remember the king forgave the debt. This is not about getting money to repay. This is strictly revenge.) Did the person ask forgiveness? Did you give it? Did the punishment for the crime outweigh the pettiness of the crime? Are you wrong? Have you really sought God?
These are questions to ask yourself when you wonder if you are really forgiving someone.
So let’s look at a practical example.
Someone does something wrong to you. What should we do as believers?
We turn to God and ask Him to help us. (Prov. 3:5-6, James 1:5 John 16:13)
We settle the matter with God. We say “Father forgive them for they know not what they do” (Luke 23:24)
We let them off the hook between us, them and God.
We look at what we’ve done. We try to fix it. If we’ve done wrong, we fix it as best we can.
We offer forgiveness to the offender as best as we can between us and God.
That’s all we can do. Our goal is to be right with God.
We cannot force the person to accept the forgiveness or to reestablish a relationship. All we can do is offer. Just like God offers.
Jesus tells us that we are to go to the person and try to resolve it. (Matt. 18:15-17 (Sometimes we can’t do this. It can cause more harm or damage. Sometimes it is impossible, they are dead or have removed themselves.)
But, remember our goal is to be right with God. You’ll notice that the verses to forgive are in the same chapter as the verse instructing us to go to our brother to solve the problem. Matthew 18. Forgiveness involves a willingness to resolve.
The bottom line is a willingness to forgive and to be right with God. It is about turning to God and asking Him to help with the forgiveness. This is the same with anything. If you were addicted to drugs, would you not turn to God and ask Him to forgive and help? This is the relationship we have with Him. He helps us.
All we can do is to be right between us and God. We cannot force anyone else to do anything. We listen to the Holy Spirit and let Him guide us in what to do. We follow the Word as best we can, with an honest heart with God.
If a chance comes to express forgiveness or to make right, then we do it.
This is what we do between us and God. No matter what.
But, what about Justice?
What about protecting others?
What about fighting evil?
Let’s say you are a member of a church since you were a child, and let’s say that certain members of the church did sinful things to you. Things that impacted your faith. Things that ruined your life. Things that were illegal. Things that hurt others.
Do you just forgive them and let it go and move on?
You can, but what if you hear that they keep damaging other people? They keep driving people from Christ. They allow others to suffer from the illegal things they do? They stand in the pulpit demanding that you forgive while they themselves have refused to forgive and destroyed others? They treat others as less than them?
Let’s say there’s a child molester in the church or neighborhood. Do you just let it go?
Do you forgive them and let them hurt others?
Let’s say you have a bad employer or manager who destroys your life. They have done it to others and continue to do so. They break laws and treat workers terrible. Do you just forgive and move on? Do you let your employer continue to mistreat people and break laws, because they think they are above the law?
Perhaps God allowed this to happen so that you will stand up and do something. Maybe someone prayed 5 years ago for God to help, and you are the help God sent. Maybe?
If a drunk driver kills your daughter do you just let them continue to drive drunk and kill others? You can forgive, but what about others?
Doesn’t the authority bear the sword for the evil doer? Isn’t that from God? (Romans 13:1-8)
This is why we turn to God in all matters, but especially in the matter of forgiveness. We forgive between us and God, then we follow His Spirit as He guides us. We pray, and watch. We do what He leads.
This is part of our relationship with Him. But, these are serious questions.
“Revenge is mine, I will repay, sayeth the Lord.” —Romans 12:19
Does that mean we just pray and wait for God to move, while someone continues to hurt others? We can forgive for what was done to us and let it go, but is it love to just let them do evil to others?
Forgiveness is a hard thing for believers to navigate. This is why we let God direct our paths.

When I was young, poetry was some weird thing that made no sense.
Something we were forced to read, and equally forced to explain and embrace.
The English teacher telling me to obey the rules and follow the forms or it was wrong.
Poetry was rhyme and contrived to create something that sucked to me.
Poetry was destroyed in me, with the stroke of a red pen.
Until I hung that English teacher out to dry, and drove her from my mind.
Then, I could see clearly to create what was real.
I had to reject those rules; and write what came with the flow.
To not care what anyone thought and just do it, without fear.
To put down what I saw fit; in the way that I chose.
I love forms and use them often.
But like speed limit signs they are a suggestion and a guide,
Unless the cops are around.
Have you seen any poetry police?
My fuzz buster says, No.
Learn to spill your guts on the page,
then shovel up what shouldn’t remain.
Poetry can be a prison, where you learn to trick the guards.
or a vast forest where you can wander free.
Poetry is what you want it to be.
That freedom is in you.
Let it out for everyone to see.
I spent a lot of years stifling creativity and my true self. All because of the opinions of people who do not pay my bills, nor give me the time of day when they see me at Wal-Mart. I love freedom in my life. I no longer listen to people who try to contain me. I listen to God, and He is not the slave-driver some folks want Him to be. I listen to love, and the spirit. I seek what’s good, not what looks good. I want to run free.

So, we know the seasons. The Bible is 30% prophecy, as some have stated. But, when you consider that the whole thing is about Jesus Christ, and that all the stories and pictures speak of Him, His First Coming and Second Coming, I think its more like 100%. God has called all believers to be…
God works to build the Kingdom through us. James 2:14-26 In this passage. The apostle James, speaks of works being an aspect of our faith. It ends with the famous phrase “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” In the verses James shows that God commanded…
Why does God let us struggle? When we get saved, we might notice that there are things that change in us immediately. But, there are other things that do not. It’s like God saves us and removes some things but leaves other things in our lives for us to struggle with. I mean if God…
We hear about fasting as part of our spiritual walk. There are many benefits to fasting. But, I am just focusing on a simple one in this article.
Fasting helps us with self-control.
Let me explain, and give some examples of how it can help us heal or change our lives.
When we fast. And I’m talking about real fasting. I’m talking about going without food for a period of time. Let’s say 24 hours or more.
You will come to a point where you will want to eat. Your mind and body will start to scream. “Let’s eat!!”
But you refuse. You wait. Go have a drink of water to calm the pain in your stomach. and keep going with the fast.
Understand, that it is a fact that humans can go 3 or more weeks without food. You are not going to die. All that screaming your body is doing, will not kill you. (We will discuss health conditions at the end.)
Your body and mind are demanding food, because it is used to it or wants it. Not because it needs it. This is like when you meditate and you are trying to clear your mind. But your mind keeps bringing thoughts to you. It is just noise.
You learn to push it away. You learn to ignore it. You learn to go get a drink and find something else to focus on instead of your hunger.
This is one of the things fasting does. It teaches self-control. Self-control is power. You tell yourself, “No. I’m not going to eat.” Then you keep resisting. Go drink water. Change the focus.
It doesn’t matter if you fail in your fast. There are no fasting police. Let’s say you couldn’t make it 24 hours. Who cares. You made it as far as you could and you will do better next time.
It’s like lifting weights. You go to muscle failure, then a little farther. Each time you do better, and you grow over time.
Fasting is a great safe way to practice self-control, and train yourself to resist temptations. This is one reason why so many religions and spiritual paths call for it.
So let’s look at some practical examples.
Let’s say you noticed that you’re drinking a lot of alcohol lately and you are concerned that you’re getting addicted. You want to cut back, and get it under control, so it doesn’t ruin your life.
When the desire to drink comes up, or a friend appears and asks if you wanna go party. You say no. You resist and refuse.
Fasting has given you the practice, so you are strong enough to resist the urge. It will at least help you to overcome.
Let’s say you run across that person who gets you excited. You want to have sex with them, and you know they are willing. It’s all laid out there for you. But, you have a spouse. or you know it will lead to trouble in some way.
Your practice in fasting will help you say no. That burning you feel is the same fleshly burning you feel when you want to eat food. It is flesh. Fasting can help you be able to say no, or turn it around into something good.
Let’s say someone pushes your buttons and you want to tell them off or react violently. Let’s say people have told you about your anger. You know your anger hurts you and others. You know it can destroy your life.
Again, fasting practice can help you to resist the explosive flash of anger. It can help you control your reaction and turn it toward good things. Even if your mind is seething, you have learned to not respond.
Fasting teaches us to have self-control over the flesh. It can help us remain calm when needed. It is like meditation, and works well with it.
Some things to consider about fasting; is that if you are going to fast for long periods of time and you are drinking water. Stay near a restroom. If you feel the urge to pass gas. Go to the bathroom. Trust me. Water in=Water out…
If you have certain medical conditions you might have trouble fasting, or it could be dangerous. BUT… make sure you actually have the condition. Some times our mind and body will scream so loudly, and make us think we are dying or going to pass out. Then, we look it up on WebMD and self-diagnose a problem that is not really there.
I cannot tell you what to do with your health. You need to be safe. But, for me I believe in being free from entanglements. I ask myself, what would happen if the world collapsed and I had to go without food? Would I run and cry to my doctor? No. Because there won’t be any doctors if the world has collapsed.
So, I practice muscling through. And I discover that I can overcome, with prayer, faith, and common sense.
But again. You need to be safe. You do you.
Fasting is a powerful tool. Give it a try.

I’m thankful to Almighty God for delivering me from some of the worst pits humanity has to offer.
Whether of my own making or the inventing of others. My alcoholism led me there.
From an early age. I have been pulled into writing, whether I understood it or not. But my alcohol abuse stopped me from it.
It’s hard for me to read and write when I’m drunk, because all I wanted to do was drink more and chase women.
This activity led me into many escapades and the destruction of my life. Rock Bottom is what they call it, a place where recovery can begin. A place where rebuilding can start.
God gave me my life back, and restored things long dead. He brought love and joy, along with sorrow to grow.
He gave me back the joy and peace of reading and writing.
A purpose to pursue.
Without which, I would not be who I am today.
I would not be writing here today.
For that I am eternally grateful.

A Look at Matthew 24 “Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive…
It’s important to understand. In order to resist temptation, we must understand what is going on. If we miss an aspect of it, we cannot really resist it. We just shift it around or suffer through. “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with…
What does that look like? It’s so simple anyone can do it. That is how God designed it. I’m going to avoid magical theological words and just give it straight. As we go through life things happen to us. Good things and bad. We have excitement over good things. We celebrate victories and enjoy time…
I pray In weakened faith, for real changes to come. To break through the chains holding me, in life.
A prayer for strengthened faith. Admitting my weakness, and needing God’s power and might. to live.
Asking in desperate tears, for things to get better. New life envisioned through vague dreams, of hope.

A Deeper Meaning “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.”—1 Tim. 6:10 People often misquote it as “money” is the root of all evil. But it’s not. Money is a tool. Like a…

He is there and will answer. We live our lives in this world, where we seem to have no control. Where we look every where for answers. Everything seems hard and we have sorrow, working our selves to death. We seek answers from gods, idols and wisemen. We seek answers from deep within ourselves. We…
When you look at history it should be obvious that the rich and powerful have destroyed people and the creation from the dawn of time.
People who believe in the divine right of kings. People who have a desire to control others. People who cannot live within their own needs, and means.
They rule the world.
They built empires across the globe and destroyed cultures who could not defend themselves. They stole land and raped it for profit. They killed the creatures of the earth to get rich and oppress slaves and employees today.
Global trade corporations who have existed in the shadows of the past, while ruling everything around us.
If they wanted to save the world, they could in a month. All they need to do is make simple changes.
But, it might disrupt their money flow. It might disrupt their power.
Governments are ruled by them. Churches are ruled by them.
They have used the military to secure their riches. They have built prisons to lock up those who disobey. They police those who pay taxes to keep the charade going.
Wheres your freedom now that the Earth is subdued?
Is it freedom when we ask permission?
Bulldozing forests to feed the human pigs.
Keeping people in poverty to create cheap labor.
Allowing just enough to keep the masses silent, while living like kings themselves.
Meanwhile the planet dies. Our animal friends suffer and die.
For our greed, not our need.
We have become addicted to the poisons they spew, the lies they tell and the scraps they give. We help them destroy the world, because they control everything.
Our spirit aches for change.
And those evil masters will bring a sick version of it to appease us.
Our spirit aches for the creation and the nature friends we see around us.
And those rich corporate rulers will use it to control us even more.
Have they ever set you free?
Why do you think they will today?
Be the change you hope to see.
Set your spirit free to love and stop your own greed.

Who really rules? Let’s talk about some conspiracy and spiritual truth for a moment. Because you must understand that there is only ONE conspiracy.

It is a demon. Cast it out. Jesus said, “Fear Not” (Matt. 10:31) He said it many times. Actually, it’s a theme throughout scripture. Fear at its most basic level, is a lack of trust in God and His promises. That is a harsh saying, especially when we are dealing with anxiety. Because, often times…

Make sure. What does it mean to follow the real Jesus? Well, let’s look and see. Jesus’s ministry was a ministry of healing. This should tell us something about what we believe in regards to the Gospel and how we are to serve God. Because we want to be like Him. That is real godliness.…
You are never too far gone. In the books of Luke, Mark, and Matthew we see the story of the Gadarene Demoniac.
