"Only Life Changes"

“There are wrinkles in marriage. But, there is real power, unity and love. Embrace.”

Genesis 1:27-28: “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. And God blessed them. And God said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.’ ”

Malachi 2:14-15: “But you say, ‘Why does he not?’ Because the LORD was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant.”

Isaiah 54:5: “For your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is his name; and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer, the God of the whole earth he is called.”

Song of Solomon 8:6-7: “Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy is fierce as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the LORD. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all the wealth of his house, he would be utterly despised.”

Ephesians 4:2-3: “With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”

Colossians 3:14: “And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.”

Ecclesiastes 4:9: “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone?”

Ephesians 5:25: “For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her.”

Genesis 2:24: “Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.”

Ecclesiastes 4:12: “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”

Mark 10:9: “Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

Ephesians 5:25-33: Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

The colors available to the earliest painter’s were taken from the earth. Together with carbon black, they ranged from red, yellow and white. These are possibly the four colors of Zechariah’s chariots { And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass. In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;  And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses. Zechariah 6:1-3},although it is not certain what color is meant by “dappled”{And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grisled and bay horses.  Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?  And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the LORD of all the earth. Zechariah 6:3-5} When no example is given, a color name in a language such as Hebrew can be impossible to define exactly.

“Being a mother of 7 awesome adult children, I could tell you stories that would have you in stitches or crying.” I wouldn’t change being a mom for anything.

“large ego of overgrown man or woman child”– often these men or woman have mothers who are blowing smoke up their ass telling them how great and special they are. Because they don’t live in ‘reality’, they are very disconnected, irresponsible from who they actually are. Do what they want on another person’s expense to save having to pay their own way in this life. Sad but true.

“Grown up adult” Cleans up after themselves, goes to work, takes care of their individual responsibilities, if they are married! Keep a roof of their own; over their own head. When it comes to making financial decisions paying their own rent or mortgage, electric, water, gas, debts in general; paying into a pension, having written a Will, budgeting every month and having life insurance all appeared; for taken care of adulthood. That is when they can look in the mirror and tell them self how special and grown up they really are. These grown up adults are the ones who complete life and I am very proud of them and not blowing smoke up their ass. Just saying.

God has provided light, this circle of brightness is the real deal in a real world, where guilt meets forgiveness. Just saying. Here the world outside is fresh and new. You see more than ever before God’s beauty and energy, without the shadow of guilt upon it. For your forgiven, for here you have forgiven everyone. Here is a new perception, where everything is bright and shining with innocence, washed in the waters of forgiveness, and cleansed of every evil thought you laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the child of God, and you are welcome. Here is your innocence, waiting to embrace you and protect you, and make you ready for the final step of eternal life. Here are the darkness and heaviness of guilt laid by, and gently replaced by purity and love. Love is not learned. Love has never left you. Embrace the truth.

When food, whether meat or vegetable, was offered in sacrifice, there was a natural suggestion that the worshiper was providing sustenance for the god or gods being worshiped. In the Old Testament sacrifices were required by Israel’s God. Yet the Psalms reveal a sharp polemic against any such misinterpretation of the sacrifices. Yahweh declares, “If I was hungry, I would not tell you.” {If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.  Psalm 50:12}

Cloth is woven by passing one thread, the weft, back and forth through fixed threads called the warp. A loom is any device that holds the warp. A shuttle is a spool or frame that carries the weft. It moves back and forth in a repetitive motion, ending its task when the length of cloth is finished. Job compares his passing days to the shuttle shooting to and fro between the warp threads. {My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle, and are spent without hope. Job 7:6}

Until this discovery, the oldest tablets were those found in a well at Nimrud, near Nineveh, dating from about 700 B.C. The original writing surface was a coating of wax.
