A little bit about me.

Ever since I was knocked to my knees in 2017, and the blessed Lord showed me more through His sight… of the clay I truly am in His beautiful hands, and how my experiences could help others struggling in this evil, deceitful world find a path out of their shadow of death! ☠️

It has, and is the most humbling thing to offer ourselves to another to only point the way, being the best example of self sacrifice only for their benefit, asking nothing from them! To prayerfully show them how much God loves them, through your actions, and words towards them! Being gentle, and meek as a servant!

I’ve been blessed with being a blessing to a number of individuals in the last few years, praise God 🙏

Here goes my pitch….

I’ve been asked by a dear friend for help.

I’m flying a sign for now to see if the good Lord will bless me, and my friend with a bus ticket for me to get to Redding, CA, ASAP!

I honestly don’t like asking anything from you ladies, and gentlemen, and yet, I must utilize every available avenue to get to Redding,

knowing that if God wants me there… he’ll open the door for me through his love for the poor! Amen!

I’m unable to utilize any of the state services for transportation because they require for you to have a place to stay, as in an apartment or someones home.

I get that, yet my situation is as a servant, living as my Lord did, as best as I can, and then He carries me.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. 😊

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writing’s of a madman. 💓

May the good Lord bless you, and your families, my friends! 😘

The thinking behind these laws is exactly what God is talking about through the prophet Isaiah in Isaiah 10:1.

Below are a couple of translations of this verse from Gods’ heart to His prophets mouth, and conveyed to the people!

ABP-en+ Isa 10:1: “Woe to the ones writing wickedness; for the ones writing wickedness are writing;”

ASV Isa 10:1: “Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers that write perverseness;”

BSB’19 Isa 10:1: “Woe to those who enact unjust statutes and issue oppressive decrees,”

CJB Is 10:1: “Woe to those who enact unjust decrees and draft oppressive legislation”

CPDV Isa 10:1: “Woe to those who make unfair laws, and who, when writing, write injustice:”

DRB Isa 10:1: “Woe to them that make wicked laws: and when they write, write injustice:”

GB Isa 10:1: “Woe to them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness [which] they have prescribed;”

Thornton man arrested in Washington state after woman’s body was found inside storage unit

This is a horribly disturbing story and please be careful who sees this! Not for the young!

https://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/crime/thornton-man-arrested-in-washington-state-after-womans-body-was-found-inside-storage-unit

This I wish could never happen in our world!! It is so tragic and horrific!! Two hundred ninety-nine other men and I have been speechless since we heard of such tragedy and cruelty towards an image of God! A beautiful young woman lost her life. R. I. P.

This man was also our guardian, and that leaves a disturbing thought in the pit of my gut.

It has for me been a sad couple of days, and some prayers for all involved have been said.

God bless you all and keep us all safe from the works of evil!

And may this young lady’s soul find the love and peace only you can give, my friend and brother, Jesus! Amen!

When I’m wrestling with God and His Word… I write it down.

And sometimes it writes itself out. So, here’s what came from my journal.

* What verse or set of words from, the very book we profess to call our guide to living, could break through the hardness of our hearts of stone?

The very words of God, our Creator resounding through, and through with the words of a heartbroken, and fearful Mother! Crying for fear of what will come upon her children if they will not turn back to her loving care, and abandon their idolatry! That only ever leads to destruction, and ultimately, separation from our Creator, our Lord Jesus Christ, and His kingdom He has prepared for us!

What are we to do?

* The point is: How are we treating the poor, and needy?

* Am I, my brother’s keeper? As Cain said to his brother’s Maker?

Or am I missing something?

What do Gods beautiful words have to say about the poor, and the needy?

* 197 times the poor are spoken of in a Protestant bible in a loving, caring manner!

* 245 times are the poor spoken about in an Orthodox bible also in a loving, caring manner!

* Could the fear of retribution, and annihilation motivate us to treat the poor as Father sees fit? It doesn’t look like it!

* God saw fit to punish Israel with exile and destruction on account of how they were treating the poor!

* Paul said: if we have not love… even though we sell our very flesh to help the poor… We have NOTHING!

* So, maybe fear of retribution isn’t the key to our hard hearts?

* God said: that he would give us a new heart, and that he would write his law upon it!

* Yea, hath God said, …?

* If God so loved the world… Why did He send His only begotten Son to proclaim the gospel (good news!) to the poor, specifically?!

* And why are all the other “commandments” ignored?!

* Isn’t it funny how we have chosen through our vain words to either deceive ourselves or being deceived we turn our backs on the only God among the gods that truly loves and cares for us!!

In all this betrayal, and deception we desecrate the very image of our betrayed Lord sitting outside those locked church doors!

* Where is, love your brother as yourself in this message?

* And the voice of Abels blood cried from the ground…

* Here is a heads up regarding our Merciful God… God had mercy on Cain by not killing him!? Even though Cain didn’t repent of his, slaying his brother, Abel.

* Am I my brother’s keeper?

* With a switching of two words we have, I am my brother’s keeper!?

* This is basically the slogan of God concerning the treatment of the poor, needy, orphans, widows, fatherless, travelers, wander!

* You are your brother’s keeper, guardian, helper according to the blessed words of wisdom of the Holy Scriptures!

* A light to the world, aren’t you to be?

* If the salt has lost its flavor… what good is it?

* Be the salt of the earth!

* What is salt good for?

* Salt cleans and protects!

* Clean and protect the least of these!? My brethren.

* We are called: children of God!

* Act like it!

* Surprise the world! Not to mention transforming the whole world in the process with Gods glory wrapped around you shining like the Lords love hanging there on his bloody cross!

Please the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Father by being at the very least kind to a poor, needy person, family!?

That’s was a little bit of my journal. I hope it helps even in some meager way.

Thank you for reading the writings of a madman. 💕

God bless you and your families. ❤

A partial list of what I came up with pursuing my Bible.

We can use it in many ways: prayers, petitions, supplications, meditation on God’s word.

43. Because of the oppression of the poor… Now will I arise, saith the Lord.

44. For the sighing of the needy… Now will I arise, saith the Lord.

45. Shame not the counsel of the poor.

46. Because the Lord is the refuge of the poor.

47. The Lord delivers the poor from him that is to strong for him.

48. The Lord delivers the needy when he cries.

49. The Lord delivers the poor when he cries.

50. The Lord delivers him that has no helper.

51. The Lord shall spare the poor.

52. The Lord shall spare the needy, and save the soul of the needy.

53. The Lord shall redeem the poor, and their soul from deceit.

54. The Lord shall redeem the poor and their soul from violence.

55. Let the poor and needy praise thy name.

56. The Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted.

57. The Lord will maintain the right of the poor.

58. Lend unto the Lord by having pity upon the poor.

59. The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is maker of them all.

60. He that giveth to the poor shall not lack.

I’m hope, and pray that this little list seeps deep into your heart, and infects you with a love for your poor, and needy brothers, and sisters who need brothers and sisters to be the hands, and feet, and mouth of our precious Lord, for God’s sake, and theirs!

Thank you for listening to the writings of a madman.

May God bless you and your families 🙏 💝

The point is, how are you treating the poor and needy?

Hello everyone. I am grateful to be able to write again. 💗

I’m just going to get right to it if you don’t mind.

What verses or words from the very book we claim as our guide for living could break through the heardness of our hearts?

The very word’s of God, our Creator, resound through and through with the cry of a heartbroken mother!

Crying for fear of what will come upon his children who have gone astray like lost sheep.

For doesn’t God know that wolves are out in sheep’s clothing waiting for his children, you, and the poor?!

He’s waiting for the modern day Church to turn back to his loving care, abandon their idolatry, narcissism on steroids, which only ever lead’s to destruction, separation from God, our Father, and be healed, washed clean!

What are we to do?

I have been thourghtly convinced that what ever I do or don’t do towards a poor person is either a kiss on God’s cheek or a slap in his face.

What does his words have to say about this? Do you know?

197 times, roughly, in the K.J.V., and 245 times, roughly, in most Orthodox bibles our Father’s loving words regarding the treatment of the poor is expressed as only a loving God can!

Could fear of retribution, annialstion motive us to treat the poor as our Father has expressed, repeatedly throughout his Holy Scripture!

God saw fit to punish Israel with exile, and destruction for how they treated the poor!

Paul says, if you have not love.. even though you sell your own flesh to help the poor… We have NOTHING!

So, maybe fear of retribution isn’t the 🗝️ to our hard hearts.

God said, He would give us a new heart, and write the law upon our hearts!

God so loved the world that he sent His Son to proclaim the gospel to the poor, specifically!

Luke, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Wherefore he hath appointed me to preach the gospel to the poor,..”

And, why are all the other “commandments”, and “thou shalt not”(s), ignored?

Isn’t it funny how we have chosen through vain words to either deceive ourselves, or being deceived… We turn our backs on the only God among the god’s who cares about us!

And in turning our backs away from God knowingly, or unknowingly, we gain a twisted view of the world, without God, and then a man is no longer in His image, and our treatment of the poor reflects this so starkly it blinds me!

And Ables blood cried from the ground, and God heard the cry of innocence blood for the first time!

Yet, here is a heads up regarding our merciful God…

God had mercy on Cain for murdering his brother, and allowed him to live!

Even though Cain didn’t really repent for murdering his brother. “Am I my brothers keeper?”, Cain said to the Lord!

With a slight turn of word’s…

I am my brothers keeper!

This might be our slogan!?

This is basically the slogan I read in God’s Holy Scripture regarding the treatment of the poor, needy, widows, homeless, orphans, fatherless, travelers, wanderer!!

You are called to be your brothers keeper! This i am sure.

A light to the world, aren’t you to be?

If the salt has lost it’s flavor, what good is it?

Be the salt of the earth!

What is salt good for?

It cleans, and protects!

So, clean and protect some poor, needy, brothers and sisters, and you’ll be the lord’s child!

You are called: “children of the living God”?

Then act like it!

Surprise the world, and please God, our Father in heaven!

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man.

God’s blessings to you and your families. 💕

God is great!

Hello everyone!

I want to let you all know that my phone shutdown for over a month! And I’m glad to be back online! Yay, God 🙏

I couldn’t wait to get back online and get the blog going again.

And now that I’m able to write again… I’m terrified!

Yet, what is a man to do when he feels the hand of God?

To know how much He loves us!

To be reminded how much He loves the poor everyday just by witnessing the continuous abuse’s, mistreatment, abandonment, and down right cruelty of the modern day Church towards the poor, needy, widows, homeless within their own cities!

Forgive my inconstancy?

I am going to get the second part of my Isaiah series out as soon as I can, given my circumstances.

It’s so good to be back online again.

Thank you all for your prayers, patience, and support.

God’s blessings to you and your families! 💕

CRY, cease not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their wicked doings… ~ Isaiah 58

Isaiah 10:1–3 (D-R):

WOE to them that make wicked laws: and when they write, write injustice:

2 To oppress the poor in judgment, and do violence to the cause of the humble of my people: that widows might be their prey, and that they might rob the fatherless.

3 What will you do in the day of visitation, and of the calamity which cometh from afar? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?

These are serious questions to be settled within our hearts and minds, don’t you think?

I’ve been struggling with my God, and His words. And my feelings of inadequacy, and being a little despondent has kept me from writing.

As inadequate as i may be I have a sense of responsibility to continue because i know how it eats at me when i don’t. Besides, i do not want any more blood on my hands than there already is, nor a separation from the Spirit of God, as i understand Him!

This will be a long sermon I’m afraid. So, please bear with me while i attempt to show you the heart of our Lord!?

I can only pray for His help to guide my heart, and mind.

This will be in installments, pt. 1, pt. 2, etc. This is part 1 of our journey through Isaiah, and his fourteen verses regarding the poor. And, yes i already, officially published part 1, and 2, yet felt it necessary to be more thorough concerning God’s words, and what i witness regarding His poor, and the modern day church!!!

And just so we are clear.

This is an indictment against the modern day church, All denominations!!!

Against your betrayal of Gods truth in His Holy Word regarding your justifications for your treatment of the poor!!!

Read Isaiah… Weep as Jesus wept for their blood on their hands, and their lack of faith!

His Word is alive.. Alive, before, and after time, and throughout time! Is this correct? God, Lord have mercy if it is!

You didn’t come here to hear my opinion, i know. You came to prayerfully hear maybe a whisper of God’s love, and His Holy Spirit will use His own word’s to show you the truth of His crazy upside down kingdom… As it is in heaven so it be on the earth… This is when, i believe, we will shine like warriors in white… Our glory before us… will be our shield, and our guide!

Lord help me tell the truth as you have shown it to me through your Holy Words! Amen!

Hello to you all who have bearded through this far with my rhetoric.

On now with the Blessed Lord’s Words…

Almost there. I have to use my notes, and this means more of my words to set the stage. Forgive me?

How does one attempt to explain, or give one a glimpse into the heart of God? Let alone, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit!? Oh my heart has come undone… The prophets could expose the heart of God, and were murdered for it. For it means forsaking your pleasures, and your little secret sins, and having them cleansed by the precious blood of God’s Holy Lamb, and following Him, and His voice alone will you follow.

And of all people the gracious Lord picked me from a life full of hatred, and sin! The darkest of places He found me, and placed me back on a path my dear godmother, may she rest in peace, and the Lord’s guidance had spoken to me… my future. If that makes sense, you’re as crazy as i am?! Yet, as incredibly tough as it can, and has gotten im incredibly grateful for what He has done for and to me!

To, “Cry, cease not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their wicked doings…” Isaiah 58:1

This is a Father’s cry for his children to hear, and repent… Turning back as being the protocol sons, and daughters of the God of the living! Any other path leads to destruction!

Here I’m attempting, and fumbling with this task of helping people see. And read for themselves what the good Lord has to say about His concerns, and guidance regarding the treatment of this beloved group of people specifically!

I pray His word’s take root, and flower into an enormous tree for His glory!

We’re going to begin with Isaiah 58.

Isa 58:1-14: “Cry, cease not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their wicked doings, and the house of Jacob their sins.

2 For they seek me from day to day, sad desire to know my ways, as a nation that hath done justice, and hath not forsaken the judgment of their God: they ask of me the judgments of justice: they are willing to approach to God.

3 Why have we fasted, and thou hast not regarded: have we humbled our souls, and thou hast not taken notice? Behold in the day of your fast your own will is found, and you exact of all your debtors.

4 Behold you fast for debates and strife. and strike with the fist wickedly. Do not fast as you have done until this day, to make your cry to be heard on high.

5 Is this such a fast as I have chosen: for a man to afflict his soul for a day? is this it, to wind his head about like a circle, and to spread sackcloth and ashes? wilt thou call this a fast, and a day acceptable to the Lord?

Pardon me, this is where the proverbial rubber meets the road.

6 Is not this rather the fast that I have chosen? loose the bands of wickedness, undo the bundles that oppress, let them that are broken go free, and break asunder every burden.

7 Deal thy bread to the hungry, and bring the needy and the harbourless into thy house: when thou shalt see one naked, cover him, and despise not thy own flesh.

8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy health shall speedily arise, and thy justice shall go before thy face, end the glory of the Lord shall gather thee up.

9 Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall hear: thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou wilt take away the chain out of the midst of thee, and cease to stretch out the finger, and to speak that which profiteth not.

10 When thou shalt pour out thy soul to the hungry, and shalt satisfy the afflicted soul then shall thy light rise up in darkness, and thy darkness shall be as the noonday.

11 And the Lord will give thee rest continually, and will fill thy soul with brightness, and deliver thy bones, and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a fountain of water whose waters shall not fail

12 And the places that have been desolate for ages shall be built in thee: thou shalt raise up the foundations of generation and generation: and thou shalt be called the repairer of the fences, turning the paths into rest.

13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy own will in my holy day, and call the sabbath delightful, and the holy of the Lord glorious, and glorify him, while thou dost not thy own ways, and thy own will is not found: to speak a word:

14 Then shalt thou be delighted in the Lord, and I will lift thee up above the high places of the earth, and will feed thee with the inheritance of Jacob thy father. For the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.“

This is the entire 58th chapter of Isaiah, and it is truly beautiful in my eyes!!

Yet, the break in the chapters leaves us with a partial impression.

There is a warning attached in the beginning of the next chapter!!

The more i witness, study, and learn… The more i have come to realize my enemies have also become my teachers.

This is the end of what I’ll call, part 1. There is plenty more to come.

Please be patient. I’m fighting an infection in my foot from using communal showers. So the pain makes my mobility limited, and clouds my thinking.

Please keep this crazy old man in your prayers!? As i will you all!

And, thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man!

God’s blessings to you all, and may He guard your families!!! 💕

Persecution is alive and well. And, possibly coming to a country near you!

Please spread this through social media! Because the more who know what’s happening the quicker resolve might come!!

Keep all involved in our prayers!

https://orthochristian.com/137623.html

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man.

God’s blessings to you and your families!

My people perish for lack of knowledge.

Others are not found for lack of love, and perish from lack thereof.

This is the reality we face every moment of every single day any of us are on the streets!

Here’s a link to an article put out last year regarding a rise in homeless deaths just in L.A.

It rings with the warning God gives about their blood upon our hands!?

https://www.usnews.com/news/healthiest-communities/articles/2019-04-23/homeless-dying-in-record-numbers-on-the-streets-of-los-angeles

Thank you for stopping by and, reading the writings of a mad man.

PS: I’ve come to realize that the other installment of Isaiah’s verses regarding the poor is going to have to come out in sections, pt. 1., pt. 2., etc. It’s actually become such a huge project that there wasn’t a better choice so i could continue with it, and not be totally overwhelmed by the depth, and width of God’s Holy words comparing them to our society, and our culture of death, and greed. Our judgments, our betrayal of our God, and His Holy words we ignore everyday.

God’s blessings upon you and your families. 💕

My humblest apologies!

When I wrote the first sentence of the last post I was angry, and I sinned, boldly… as my pride always does.

Me being God’s mouth piece.

I type those words and shake my head in amazement!

If I were his toe nail or the yuk between his toes… Then I would be blessed!

For then, I’d still be in his presence!

I am so ashamed of myself for saying that about me! I know where God found me!

And, I know… that my pride knows no bounds!

This writing from this side of things is a heartbreaking ordeal!

I love doing this, and I suck too, and I’m okay with that.

I am still working on Isaiah. It’s been a larger project than I anticipated, and am needing to redesign my approach. I’m still going through Isaiah, and the poor. There is just so much pack in those verses, and comparing that not only to the church, yet to the cultural response to the homeless situation. No easy task. By the way, I need your prayers, please!? I live in one of the worst, evilly oppressed in some of the most horrible ways, drugs are rampant, prostitution, young woman out on the streets! We all need your prayers!? I hear some of the most evil things come out of people’s mouths everyday! And people wonder why I seek solitude… To pray!

Humblest apologies for assuming I could ever be a mouth piece for the Lord Almighty! ❤️

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man!

God’s blessings to you and your families! 💕

The things I see… Lord, please have mercy!

I have no idea why God chose me to be his mouth piece!

I have no idea why I see, and witness everyday some injustice, and crewlity towards the poorest of the poor by those who call themselves, “God’s children”!

We have no fear of God anymore!!!

It evades our consciousness completely!!!

We have all gone astray, following our own devices to our destruction!!!

How do we get off of this road that is leading us to the meeting of the wrath of God?

Read His book, and find all the verses about the poor, and pray for the ability to love as He loves you for your neighbors sake, and your own!?

It’s funny how God works in my life. I come almost to the brink of my own destruction, and I get yanked from the edge! With that said, I have a chapter of Jeremiah to share with you, brothers and sisters.

Jeremiah 5 (D-R):

GO about through the streets of Jerusalem, and see, and consider, and seek in the broad places thereof, if you can find a man that executeth judgment, and seeketh faith: and I will be merciful unto it.

2 And though they say: The Lord liveth; this also they will swear falsely.

3 O Lord, thy eyes are upon truth: thou hast struck them, and they have not grieved: thou hast bruised them, and they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than the rock, and they have refused to return.

4 But I said: Perhaps these are poor and foolish, that know not the way of the Lord, the judgment of their God.

5 I will go therefore to the great men, and will speak to them: for they have known the way of the Lord, the judgment of their God: and behold these have altogether broken the yoke more, and have burst the bonds.

6 Wherefore a lion out of the wood hath slain them, a wolf in the evening hath spoiled them, a leopard watcheth for their cities: every one that shall go out thence shall be taken, because their transgressions are multiplied, their rebellions are strengthened.

7 How can I be merciful to thee? thy children have forsaken me, and swear by them that are not gods: I fed them to the full, and they committed adultery, and rioted in the harlot’s house.

8 They are become as amorous horses and stallions: every one neighed after his neighbour’s wife.

9 Shall I not visit for these things, saith the Lord? and shall not my soul take revenge on such a nation?

10 Scale the walls thereof, and throw them down, but do not utterly destroy: take away the branches thereof, because they are not the Lord’s.

11 For the house of Israel, and the house of Juda have greatly transgressed against me, saith the Lord.

12 They have denied the Lord, and said, It is not he: and the evil shall not come upon us: we shall not see the sword and famine.

13 The prophets have spoken in the wind, and there was no word of God in them: these things therefore shall befall them.

14 Thus saith the Lord the God of hosts: because you have spoken this word, behold I will make my words in thy mouth as fire, and this people as wood, and it shall devour them.

15 Behold I will bring upon you a nation from afar, O house of Israel, saith the Lord: a strong nation, an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou shalt not know, nor understand what they say.

16 Their quiver is as an open sepulchre, they are all valiant.

17 And they shall eat up thy corn, and thy bread: they shall devour thy sons, and thy daughters: they shall eat up thy flocks, and thy herds: they shall eat thy vineyards, and thy figs: and with the sword they shall destroy thy strong cities, wherein thou trustest.

18 Nevertheless in those days, saith the Lord, I will not bring you to utter destruction.

19 And if you shall say: Why hath the Lord our God done all these things to us? thou shalt say to them: As you have forsaken me, and served a strange god in your own land, so shall you serve strangers in a land that is not your own.

20 Declare ye this to the house of Jacob, and publish it in Juda, saying:

21 Hear, O foolish people, and without understanding: who have eyes, and see not: and ears, and hear not.

22 Will not you then fear me, saith the Lord: and will you not repent at my presence? I have set the sand a bound for the sea, an everlasting ordinance, which it shall not pass over: and the waves thereof shall toss themselves, and shall not prevail: they shall swell, and shall not pass over it.

23 But the heart of this people is become hard of belief and provoking, they are revolted and gone away.

24 And they have not said in their heart: Let us fear the Lord our God, who giveth us the early and the latter rain in due season: who preserveth for us the fulness of the yearly harvest.

25 Your iniquities have turned these things away, and your sins have withholden good things from you.

26 For among my people are found wicked men, that lie in wait as fowlers, setting snares and traps to catch men.

27 As a net is full of birds, so their houses are full of deceit: therefore are they become great and enriched.

28 They are grown gross and fat: and have most wickedly transgressed my words. They have not judged the cause of the widow, they have not managed the cause of the fatherless, and they have not judged the judgment of the poor.

29 Shall I not visit for these things, saith the Lord? or shall not my soul take revenge on such a nation?

30 Astonishing and wonderful things have been done in the land.

31 The prophets prophesied falsehood, and the priests clapped their hands: and my people loved such things: what then shall be done in the end thereof?

This is the end of the fifth chapter of Jeremiah.

If you go back, and read the very first chapter of Isaiah, you may see a connection!?

I wish I wrote better than I do! I have this horrible sense of calamity, utter horror, and devistation on the horizon! I cannot explain addiquitly the terror I feel for all involved!!!

Please, please… I beg of you to think about this deeply, and pray for guidance, and strength to do what you know is right!!!

Here is the last two verses of Jeremiah 4:30-31…

30 But when thou art spoiled what wilt thou do? though thou clothest thyself with scarlet, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, and paintest thy eyes with stibic stone, thou shalt dress thyself out in vain: thy lovers have despised thee, they will seek thy life.
31 For I have heard the voice as of a woman in travail, anguishes as of a woman in labour of a child. The voice of the daughter of Sion, dying away, spreading her hands: Woe is me, for my soul hath fainted because of them that are slain.

That is the feeling I carry within myself everyday… Because the wrath of God is coming, and we all know it! Repent while you still have breath in your lungs and feed the poor, house the poor as a brother, care for the widow’s as if she was your mother!?

Are we not all made by the same Creator?

Seattle’s App for Kicking Out the Homeless – The Atlantic

https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2018/06/an-app-for-ejecting-the-homeless/563849/

This is a little out of date. Three years old, and yet, it seems only to be getting worsts for us homeless!

10 million dollars spent to clean out homeless camps in one year… By one city!!

TEN MILLION DOLLARS?! $10.000.000 seriously 😑

Who is making a living off the homeless, the poorest of our country?

This is absolutely disgusting!

I’m actually at a loss for words. Heartbroken 💔

Thank you for stopping by, and reading the writings of a mad man!

God bless you, and your families.

PS: I’ve been in Denver for four months now, and haven’t been able to get anywhere because of the red tape, and the burocrocy of corruption, and slight of hand in regards to how the resources are used, and distributed, or even if they are available!? Transportation to appointments is almost impossible to get help with, and that is critical to any endeavor of getting off the streets!!

Ignoring the poor is a sin, head of Ukrainian Catholic Church says

ROME (CNS) — Celebrating the birth of Jesus, Christians should remember that he is present in each person who is sick, homeless, frail, neglected or needs help, said the head of the Ukrainian Catholic Church. ‘Those who disregard the poor scorn their creator. To wrong such persons is to commit a sin that calls to heaven

American Homeless

I’ve been through some things here, and I haven’t posted much for more than a year and a half for many reasons, but most because of obedience to a gracious and awesome GOD who has kept me safe from many errors. Sooner or later, on GODs time and His time only, He will allow me to be what I’m called to be. I still don’t care what people think of me. I’m here to please GOD and Jesus.I hope this post brings something to you.

Do you wake up in the morning and dread getting out of bed? Did you sleep? How are you getting through your day? Did you think to put Jesus or God first before you threw back the covers? Did you even have a bed to sleep in last night? Every day we are given a choice in our actions. That’s the beauty of being human…

To give to the poor? To offer help to the poor?

These ideas are becoming less popular every day in our supposed christian county!

There are ordinances, and law’s in effect, also being engaged against specifically the poor… The homeless!

Who’s children are we?

The world’s children?

The children of heaven?

The children of light?

The children of God?

Or are we mostly children of the devil?

Exposed by our fruits, and our cooperation with a system, governmentally, systematically opposed directly against the Holy Scriptures!

Being in league with the ANTICHRIST!!?

Here’s something to contemplate deeply!! Let it sink down into your soul!!

What exactly is your soul worth?

And, imagine yourself sitting on some unnamed street corner alone, absolutely abandoned, despised by everyone who sees you, and you have no money, nothing to eat, and no access to drinking water?!

And all of a sudden everything changes in a twinkling of an eye, and you find yourself in this scenario….

31 And when the Son of man shall come in his majesty, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit upon the seat of his majesty.

32 And all nations shall be gathered together before him: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats:

33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left.

34 Then shall the king say to them that shall be on his right hand: Come, ye blessed of my Father, possess you the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

35 For I was hungry, and you gave me to eat: I was thirsty, and you gave me to drink: I was a stranger, and you took me in:

36 Naked, and you covered me: sick, and you visited me: I was in prison, and you came to me.

37 Then shall the just answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry and fed thee: thirsty and gave thee drink?

38 Or when did we see thee a stranger and took thee in? Or naked and covered thee?

39 Or when did we see thee sick or in prison and came to thee?

40 And the king answering shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.

41 Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire, which was prepared for the devil and his angels.

42 For I was hungry and you gave me not to eat: I was thirsty and you gave me not to drink.

43 I was a stranger and you took me not in: naked and you covered me not: sick and in prison and you did not visit me.

44 Then they also shall answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison and did not minister to thee?

45 Then he shall answer them, saying: Amen: I say to you, as long as you did it not to one of these least, neither did you do it to me.

46 And these shall go into everlasting punishment: but the just, into life everlasting.

So, I have a question: who do you think will be vindicated?

The abandoned, despised, poor, homeless person sitting on that street corner?

Or the rich modern day church people driving by the abandoned, poor, homeless person?

Remember the story of lazarus, and the rich man?

It didn’t work out well for the rich man in that story, did it?

This is where I plead, and beg you to pull out your dusty bible and, read those verses about the poor, and all the good Lord has to say about us!?

Because there is a GREAT JUDGEMENT COMING!!!

And don’t worry, you won’t miss it, we’ll all be there!!!

Lord, O heavenly Father, have mercy on me, and all of us for our hatred towards the very image of You, our brothers, and sisters!! Rip my heart of stone out of my chest, and replace it with Your heart, my dear Father in heaven!! AMEN! AMEN!

May the good Lord bless you and your families 💓

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man!

He humbled himself… To be our servant.

I ask, are we not to do the same as He?

To serve others?

To esteem them more than ourselves?

He is our example?

To follow His voice, and no other?

For isn’t He the shepherd of our souls, right?

Isn’t He our our High Priest?

Isn’t He the author, and finisher of our faith? ( To me faith encompasses or includes, Love! As my faith in God grows so does my love for God, and fallen mankind. Just a thought.)

The modern day church amazes me. There like a bunch of five year olds with very big Bank accounts, and expensive toys to show everyone how much God loves them! When their poor, ravaged brother or sister is outside without a coat, clean clothes, maybe worn for weeks, and no shoes on their soor dirty feet, and you eat in luxury, with counsel from satan himself right from the pulpit!

I call them five year olds on account that they do not discern the times or clearly what their in-actions on their part is creating for themselves in God’s realm, the spiritual side of God’s creation!!

A horrible calamity is coming!!!

It’s on account of our choices, and our actions behind those choices!!

Be very weary about your thoughts, and become aware of the sinful patterns laid there!!

When attacked by those sinful thoughts please read the psalms, and the entire book of Ephesians.

What is it that we obsess about?

Our needs being met?

I’ve been homeless for almost a decade, and my needs have always been met, and then some!

I know I have never gone without because of His grace, and concern for me.

I know without a doubt that God, and the whole heavenly court, and all the holy Host of heaven, and all the Saints love me, and pray for me, everyday! For if they did not, I would have been dead or insane along time ago!

As a horrible example of a follower of the Risen Lord, and a protocol son many times over…

I call Him, Papa, Father in my heart! This calls for a prayer…

Please… Pray for more harvesters!? This takes heart, God’s heart! The heart of the sacrificial… the Lamb of God!

Oh Father in heaven, God Almighty… Bless us, your poor brothers and sisters abandoned by the world, and the modern day church!! We beseach thee, O Lord to ask Our Mother Mary to pray for us! To shower us with the abundant grace’s You have bestowed upon her, Our Mother! We implore You Lord to break the icy heart’s of Your people asleep in the pews!! To give them a broken and contrite heart towards You, and us, your abandoned, despised, lost, and broken children!! We know the darkness, and the demon is heavy upon our brothers and sisters in the pews, and their understanding has been darkened… leading them to the Abyss… unaware they are led away from Your light, and love… We plead for their hearts and eyes to be opened… and the true light of Christ, the Risen Lord’s unbounding grace, and love shine through them, in their thoughts, prayers, and actions… Taking every thought captive to Christ, and His Cross! So they can see that the fields are ripe for harvest, and the harvesters are few! Amen!

To see that the fields are ripe for harvest, and yet, the harvesters are few!!

Please… Pray for more harvesters!!

This takes heart… God’s heart… The heart of the sacrificial Lamb! Who became your servant as your Master and example, as your husband, and you His bride… To show you how to serve, and what the cost is…

“When Christ bids a man to come and follow Him… He bids him to come and die…” Dietrich Bonhoeffer (paraphrased?)

I want everyone to know, I don’t write just for you, yet mostly, I am as convicted by the words as you are sometimes. I to, struggle to find the path that is narrow. Stay in prayer as much as possible! Trust God to help, and guide you, and I!!

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a crazy old man, seemingly touched by the grace of God! Thank you Lord!

I have just a little more to share with you, if you wouldn’t mind?

To serve my brother’s and sister’s as if my very soul was the prize? Because it is the prize… for God’s kingdom or the fire’s of hell!! Every minute of every day we create our beliefs towards God Almighty through our time in prayer, and our care of the homeless, poor, widow’s, orphans, drunks, addicts, thieves, prostitutes! For these are the very ones Jesus hung out with. It’s not easy! I’m just a man who has been brought back from the brink of self destruction, and total aniolaition straight to the depths of hell! That’s where I was heading when I was knocked to my knees four years ago, this last November! The Lord Almighty God is my Saviour! Praise the Lord, our Father! Amen! I have to thank my dear Mother Mary. Because it was her Holy Rosary that brought me out of the living hell I was trapped in! The old Protestant in me doesn’t want to say anything regarding, Mother Mary… The Theotokos… “Mother of God”, or “God Bearer”, who has come to my rescue time and time again! And, I cannot deny what I believe to be true, and has had a continuous profound affect upon my faith in nothing but a good, wholesome, purity… Always leading me back to the foot of the cross! “His mother said to the waiters: Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye.” This is the whole of everything I understand regarding, my dear Mother Mary!

God bless you all, and your families! Peace be with you!

To remind us of God’s mercy towards us who were, and are undeserving of His mercy! Psalm 102

BLESS the Lord, O my soul: and let all that is within me bless his holy name.

2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and never forget all he hath done for thee.

3 Who forgiveth all thy iniquities: who healeth all thy diseases.

4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction: who crowneth thee with mercy and compassion.

5 Who satisfieth thy desire with good things: thy youth shall be renewed like the eagle’s.

6 The Lord doth mercies, and judgment for all that suffer wrong.

7 He hath made his ways known to Moses: his wills to the children of Israel.

8 The Lord is compassionate and merciful: longsuffering and plenteous in mercy.

9 He will not always be angry: nor will he threaten for ever.

10 He hath not dealt with us according to our sins: nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.

11 For according to the height of the heaven above the earth: he hath strengthened his mercy towards them that fear him.

12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our iniquities from us.

13 As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath the Lord compassion on them that fear him:

14 For he knoweth our frame. He remembereth that we are dust:

15 Man’s days are as grass, as the flower of the field so shall he flourish.

16 For the spirit shall pass in him, and he shall not be: and he shall know his place no more.

17 But the mercy of the Lord is from eternity and unto eternity upon them that fear him: And his justice unto children’s children,

18 To such as keep his covenant, And are mindful of his commandments to do them.

19 The lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: and his kingdom shall rule over all.

20 Bless the Lord, all ye his angels: you that are mighty in strength, and execute his word, hearkening to the voice of his orders.

21 Bless the Lord, all ye his hosts: you ministers of his that do his will.

22 Bless the Lord, all his works: in every place of his dominion, O my soul, bless thou the Lord.

Abandoned to his pain!

This is a heart breaking topic, no way around that.

When I was 17 my older brother committed suicide.

Two tours in vietnam, POW for six months the second tour! eight years in a bike gang, four years in a federal prison, two years out.

And in that two years with the VA’s help, he became a craps, and twenty one dealer making good money, and through a legal means of lively-hood.

By all standards, he was doing great!

This deviastated our family! Especially, Our dear mother!

I haven’t until recently really thought of my brother as one of the 22 a day that kill themselves!?

To me, he is.

May he rest in peace, and God’s light shine upon him! Amen!

Because I know my brother suffered in ways that I could never comprehend!

And I know that devil myself very well… Having attempted it three times in my life.

Yet, my last lovely wife “J”, may you rest in peace my love, swore me to a promise to never attempt it again, and I have kept that promise for eight years, praise God!

So what this is really about…

I was flying a sign today on a very busy corner in Denver, and I noticed this younger man, maybe forties, and he was wondering through the busy street as traffic is whizzing by his half unclothed body! It scared me to see him there, and I told him so when he finally got across the street! It really was terrifying! At moments I honestly couldn’t watch out of sure fear! Then I’d start praying hard!

The third time he came up to me, at some point in our conversation I asked him if I could meet him in the morning, and we would attempt to contact a family member? And this scared, confused child of God/Ranger… Burst into tears! And so did I, and we cried for a minute, and made plans, praying, to meet tomorrow morning!?

I wish someone else could write this because I know that I unable to describe accurately, nor spiritually what was actually going on!

All I know is, it brought us together so he could share his broken heart with this old man, just for a minute, on some random street corner in Denver.

Please pray for me, and especially for him, the Ranger!?

PS: and what this really is about are the horrifying truth of how our veterans are treated, and abandoned to there pain?! I’ve seen so many veterans poor, destitute, homeless, and usually, and sadly addicted to something for the pain of his present, and his past!?

Would King Solomon treat his armies veterans like this?

I don’t think so!?

O my God, I am Thy servant, and the son of Thy handmaid, and Thou hast broken my bonds. Psalm 115:16 (D-R)

I have thought a lot about Mother Mary through the years.

Here is something I wrote earlier this afternoon.

I hope you find something you like ☺️

Who is this woman that consumes my thoughts?

Who is this Lady everyone calls: Mother?

Our Ever-Virgin Mother Mary!

Who is this hidden, mysterious woman everyone adores, prays to, loves with such deep passion that it has caused wars?

That last part was sad to say for this Lady is called: Queen of peace!

Who is this woman of Israel spoken of by St John in the book of revelation with a crown of twelve stars?

No doubt, some of us call her, Queen of our hearts!

Who is this woman barely mentioned in the gospels calling herself, the handmaid of the Lord?

Who is this woman God himself predestined to be the Mother of His Son?

Hers by flesh was the Son of God born to show His glory!

Who is this woman preserved from all stain of sin?

Who is this woman who bore the God-Man within her grace filled heart first, and then within her immaculate womb?

Who is this woman who nurished the infant, Christ?

Who is this woman who knew His passion?

Who is this woman who watched her Son unjustly condemned?

Who is this woman who watched as they tore the flesh she gladly gave to Him?

Who is this woman who stood by His glorious cross, and watched as His precious blood flowed?

Who is this woman who knew the mystery of the redemption of the world?

Who is this woman who is the living temple of the Holy Trinity?

Who is this woman who we call, Queen of heaven, and earth?

Who is this woman who breast fed the slain Lamb of God?

Who is this woman we all call, Mary?

Who is this woman some of us call, the Mother of God?

Who is this woman libraries of books have been written about throughout the centuries?

Who is this woman whom the devil, and all of hell fear?

Who is this woman blessed throughout all generations?

Who is this woman who bore the branch of Jesse?

Who is this woman called by Gabriel, full of grace?

Who is this woman I call, Mother, but Mother Mary of course!

Strange situations!

I have found myself in a strange situation regarding those who serve God, and those who serve the devil!?

Straight up satanist, pronounced satanist, proud satanist!

We definitely live in different times then when I grew up in the sixties and seventies.

I remember after my being knocked to my knees I was riding the city bus in Salem, Or., And as we were coming into the station I noticed a man with tattoos all over his face! Recognizable tattoos in the occult world.

He wore a black leather jacket with a huge pentagram on the back, and lettering up and down the sleeves! With amazement I watched him as if he was some strange creature only legends mention in passing.

Yet he was there as I rode the bus into the station clutching my rosary in my hand! Looking forward as we pulled in I spotted another just like the first one!!

Now there are two!?

In plain sight!?

In broad daylight!?

Like nocturnal vampires…

Become sunwalkers!

This is how much things have changed…

Satan’s followers walk among us in broad daylight, and do not fear!

We need to pray!

A LOT!!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not scared, he’s a vanquished foe!

No it’s not that…

It’s the fact that they are so bold!

It’s the reality that time is of the essence for all of us, and I firmly believe that you, and I are living in the end times!

People are literally dying from the darkness surrounding them!

The aloneness…

The abandonment…

Can, and most likely will lead to an addiction to ease the pain, and coldness stretching from the car passing you buy.

We need to know which side of the fence we are about!?

Whom do I serve?

As for me and my house ( heart) we will serve the Lord, and trust in Him, and His name!

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man!

God’s love, and blessings to you and your families ❤️

This is exactly why I love relying on the words of our Lord, and not my own!

A part of the daily readings…

Ephesians 4:32–5:8 (D-R):

32 And be ye kind one to another: merciful, forgiving one another, even as God hath forgiven you in Christ.

CHAPTER 5

BE ye therefore followers of God, as most dear children:

2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.

3 But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not so much as be named among you, as becometh saints:

4 Or obscenity or foolish talking or scurrility, which is to no purpose: but rather giving of thanks.

5 For know you this and understand: That no fornicator or unclean or covetous person (which is a serving of idols) hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words. For because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the children of unbelief.

7 Be ye not therefore partakers with them.

8 For you were heretofore darkness, but now light in the Lord. Walk then as children of the light.

I love the words of our Lord!

So clear, and pure… Right to the point!

They cut right through my BS!

Convict me right in my tracks!

Bringing me to my knees, and His thrown of mercy!

Setting me free…

From MYSELF!

As it was in my baptism!

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man!

Denver Weather: Record Lows Set Nearly 100 Years Ago May Fall By Tuesday

https://denver.cbslocal.com/2020/10/25/record-lows-possible-denver-weather/

A link about the weather going on in my neck of the woods.

Just found out that the Denver Colosium is shipping in 50 more homeless men sometime tonight!

Fifty more souls to pray for!

There has been a lot of talk about the police sweeping homeless camps this last week.

This concerns me in a way…

Sleep deprivation has been linked to various types of cancer from studies I’ve read. And I know that’s not fair to say, and have no footnotes. Forgive me, yet what I have found was actually disturbing!

And I actually felt angry about the whole situation!

Why do the captors always sleep deprive their captives? It’s not to give them cancer. Just a byproduct. It’s about control, and keeping them, the enemy, off balance.

There’s no love, mercy, compassion from the system running things now.

Any love, mercy, and compassion happens, usually on a one on one plane of existence… person to person. Especially here on the streets and in any shelters.

Just something to think about. Along with the research of sleep deprivation studies pointing to a break down within the body leading to different types of cancer, even years later!

Who would be to blame?

For me watching, experiencing the treatment of the poor by the modern day church, along with the laws of the land… create a situation where the devil, and his children… sure can flourish even more… As if he needs any help!

So you, and I need to be, get, and stay vigelent

O Lord have mercy on us!

Forgive my rambling!?

I’m concerned about the homeless, and the weather coming for the next couple of days!

Please remember the poor!? Please remember the needful!? Please remember God, the good Lord, made you both!?

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man!

God bless you all, and your families ❤️

PS: help someone stay warm, and alive for God’s sake! If you can!?

Stay vigilant my friends! For the devil prowls about seeking who he may devour!

Keep your lanterns full, and your wick’s trimmed…

For the Master is coming!

14° outside, and only going to get colder!

Please, Oh please be merciful to any, and all homeless!

Their blood would be upon your hands if you have the means to help someone not freeze to death, and they die of exposure!

Isaiah 10:3…

What will you do in the day of visitation, and of the calamity which cometh from afar? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will you leave your glory?

Genesis 4:9-10

And the Lord said to Cain: Where is thy brother Able? And he answered, I know not: am I my brothers keeper?

10 And he said to him: What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth to me from the earth.

James 4:17

To him therefore who knowth to do good, and doth it not, to him it is sin.

Just a gentle reminder to love our brothers and sisters who are less fortunate than some of us!

Study to show thyself approved.. a clipping from my journal.

I have been studying a lot lately, and am a little overwhelmed by all the information! And a little saddened by some of it. Yet, it’s like being on the grandest scavenger hunt ever!

And all the beautiful pearls of wisdom are truly treasure beyond my feeble understanding, and yet I am grateful for these blessings, and grace’s to find such treasures to hold and contemplate!

1. The knowledge of my godmother’s death is still becoming a reality for me!  Absorbing the fact it’s self of Marisa’s death, and that my last person who really knew me is gone on to the Risen Lord!

I feel quite alone sometimes, now!

Yet the Lord knows me through and through, and loves me completely! Thank you ❤️

And without the Risen Lord Jesus Christ, God the Father, and the Holy Ghost, and for me most of all… My beautiful Mother Mary who brought me to my knees, and has been showing me another way to live through her Holy Rosary!

And the implications for myself haven’t really sunk in, I don’t think!? The idea of me making a sign of verses about the poor, and the church, and sitting in front of a Catholic Church with the sign preaching about the treatment of the chosen of God… the poor! 

I’m scared Lord Jesus, help me with this calling you have laid upon my heart! Grant through our most loving Mother Mary your grace’s to carry out your wishes, Lord Jesus!? Amen!

2. St. Ephrem’s prayer (s) to the Holy Mother of God truly challenge me, theologically, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and they inspire me greatly!  Lifting me up in ways new to me, towards my Holy Mother Mary ❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❤️

The list of titles, and names regarding the Mother of God is going to take a while to fulfill for me to research and locate! 

The knowledge of the Mother Mary, and the grace’s God blessed her with overwhelm me in attempting to understand even more how Holy Mother Mary fits within the economy of the kingdom of heaven, and in my heart, and life… Along with how she fits into that of the poor!?

I understand, some what that she, Mother Mary is the perfect example of a desciple of our Risen Lord Jesus Christ.  How also the Mother of God is hidden within the old testament expressed by the mystics themselves! 

Truly underappreciated, and unfathomable to me… And, yet, I am attracted to you Oh Holy Mother of God, and I pray for your honor, and the glory of God!

I’ve had a hard time finding a place to pray to my dear Mother Mary! Please help me find somewhere to pray, and have private time with you, and God our Saviour, Without interruption, and distractions, I pray! Amen!

I’m actually doing the concecration to the Risen Lord Jesus Christ through Mother Mary, by St. Louis de Montfort. Culminating on the 21st of November! The very same day Mother Mary concecrated herself at the temple of God in Jerusalem to the service of God, and His will! Help me Mother Mary! Help me Jesus! Help me Lord God! Help me Holy ghost! Amen!

Without God in their world. Ephesians 2:12

Good morning everyone!

I stumbled across an article that broke my heart yesterday because I witness the best I can within our circumstances, homeless, and destitute in Denver, and it’s not easy to do because most people just don’t want to hear about God, and don’t believe in miracles anymore! Yet, I hang as close to the Risen Lord, and Mother Mary… as I can keeping my hope alive, and yes, others see this, and some come talk with me about God.

I’m just going to copy what I wrote, and pray that it makes sense.

This news of more scandal within my beautiful church, and the Vatican breaks my heart yet not so much for me, and yet it does, yet for all those I see everyday… lost, destitute, and without God in their world. No hope, and any hope of faith in God is shattered as they walk alone and hopeless as the devil takes control of their hearts, mind’s and souls… sinking them with every blow to the church further into hell on earth to die without hope or God!

Please pray for the church! Which translates into, all the children of God! He knows who they are!

And please pray for us homeless, and when you are done praying!

For your sake, and the poor… (am I my brothers keeper?) bring your love for God out to the hopelessly destitute of God, your blessings, and share your gifts with some with none?! And watch the miracles slowly, or quickly manifest! Yet miracles none the less! And yet a miracle just might be you showing up to your destiny!?

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man.

God bless you and your families 💗

PS: the last post didn’t come out as I had hoped. I’m conciddering redoing the whole thing. And thank you all for your patience, and prayers! 💞

… Walk through the valley of the shadow of death…

Psalm 23 (KJV 1900):

A Psalm of David.

1  The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2  He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.

3  He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5  Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Amen!

This is the one I memorized, kjv… it roles off the lips easier.

No offense to Douay Rheims version! I personally use that version.

Here is the Douay Rheims version of this Psalm. Notice that it is numbered, 22.

Psalm 22 (D-R):

A psalm for David.

THE Lord ruleth me: and I shall want nothing.

2 He hath set me in a place of pasture. He hath brought me up, on the water of refreshment:

3 He hath converted my soul. He hath led me on the paths of justice, for his own name’s sake.

4 For though I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils, for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they have comforted me.

5 Thou hast prepared a table before me against them that afflict me. Thou hast anointed my head with oil; and my chalice which inebreateth me, how goodly is it!

6 And thy mercy will follow me all the days of my life. And that I may dwell in the house of the Lord unto length of days.

Amen!

Been looking through the Psalms lately, looking, and finding solace, and comfort in my God’s Holy Scripture especially in regards to the poor, and His love towards us!

What I find frustrating is the poor either don’t want to hear how much God loves the them personally. They usually mumble something under their breath not quite auditable, and then change the subject…,

Or, they say, oh yeah, and he picked me up in his UFO last year…. AND we did some lsd together… then here come the myths… That’s if they are not pulling your leg?! Some take their stories very seriously, and of course we all do.

I had one gentleman say to me, your church is the whore of babylon! He does have a demon of alcohol/addiction in his life. More than once he has said that, and I didn’t say anything… I lift him up to Mother Mary, and her Son! Instead of the other thoughts I could entertain, and they do come around, and my old nature, my flesh, wants to lash out and defend my holy Queen’s honor!? Well… That’s not the example I see within the lives of Jesus or His blessed Mother Mary whom I say I follow!

It can be really discouraging at moments… Sending me straight to my knees…

Help O Lord, and Mother Mary please pray for us! Especially for me, because I am so vulnerable, and weak!?

And honestly… Any inclination to pray… To think of and about God, and His kingdom is pure grace to me!! It doesn’t come naturally.

For me the 23rd Psalm is a condensed version of the Lord’s gospel… His good news to none other than the poor!

Don’t believe me, that’s okay. It came from His own lips…

And Jesus returned in the power of the spirit, into Galilee: and the fame of him went out through the whole country.

15 And he taught in their synagogues and was magnified by all.

16 And he came to Nazareth, where he was brought up: and he went into the synagogue, according to his custom, on the sabbath day: and he rose up to read.

17 And the book of Isaias the prophet was delivered unto him. And as he unfolded the book, he found the place where it was written:

18 The spirit of the Lord is upon me. Wherefore he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the contrite of heart,

And His true followers, the sheep who hear Him calling…know the sound of His voice, and will only responded to Him! They know who are the wolves in sheep’s clothing, and flee from them, and their deceitful lies especially in regards to the treatment of His poor, widows, orphans fatherless… All of these are here on the streets… Waiting for you to show them the true meaning of God’s mercy, and justice, His justice! Just as He has shown you, and more!!!

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of this crazy old man who wrestles with God!

Lord have mercy!?

God bless you all, and your families!

PS: I’ve been working on the Isaiah piece, and it has grown into something of it’s own. So please pray for me, and bear with me, and I’ll get it done, with God’s grace!?

Watch “Homeless Woman Was Arrested for Sleeping in Her Car so Now She Sleeps on the Ground Next to Her Car” on YouTube

This is such a sad reality in our world now.

We get in trouble with the law’s of the land that go against His Holy Scripture!

It just goes to show how much the devil is running things in this present darkness!?

It also shows how the light of the world ( God’s children) is helping this present darkness with so much blood on our hands!?

I love this website, invisible people! Check it out please?

Psalm 81

Psalm 81:1–8 (D-R):

GOD hath stood in the congregation of gods: and being in the midst of them he judgeth gods.

2 How long will you judge unjustly: and accept the persons of the wicked?

3 Judge for the needy and fatherless: do justice to the humble and the poor.

4 Rescue the poor; and deliver the needy out of the hand of the sinner.

5 They have not known nor understood: they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth shall be moved.

6 I have said: You are gods and all of you the sons of the most High.

7 But you like men shall die: and shall fall like one of the princes.

8 Arise, O God, judge thou the earth: for thou shalt inherit among all the nations.

The end of Psalm 81 a

I was going to write something spiffy, and maybe even smart lol!

Yet, my words only block His!

And His are so blessed, and beautiful, calling to my pathetic soul for health, and healing just because He loves us so… Much!

Thank you for stopping by, and reading this crazy old man’s ramblings.

God bless you all, and your families!

Psalm 56

The prophet prays in his affliction, and praises God for his delivery.

Coming across this Psalm this morning after… encountering what seemed to me, an attack from evil!

The sensation of that presence is a temptation to me! On account of my past, and having the little piece of knowledge of God’s mercy towards one such as me… Prompted me to pray inside myself immediately to the precious blood of our Risen Lord, Jesus Christ, and to His Mother’s, Immaculate heart for protection; to wrap me, and any of her Son’s or daughters… The lord’s lambs in her safety… Within her lovely Mantle!

Here is the Psalm…

Psalm 56:1–12 (D-R):

Unto the end, destroy not, for David, for an inscription of a title, when he fled from Saul into the cave.

2 HAVE mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: for my soul trusteth in thee. And in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, until iniquity pass away.

3 I will cry to God the most high; to God who hath done good to me.

4 He hath sent from heaven and delivered me: he hath made them a reproach that trod upon me. God hath sent his mercy and his truth,

5 And he hath delivered my soul from the midst of the young lions. I slept troubled. The sons of men, whose teeth are weapons and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.

6 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.

7 They prepared a snare for my feet; and they bowed down my soul. They dug a pit before my face, and they are fallen into it.

8 My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and rehearse a psalm.

9 Arise, O my glory, arise psaltery and harp: I will arise early.

10 I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing a psalm to thee among the nations.

11 For thy mercy is magnified even to the heavens: and thy truth unto the clouds.

12 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth.

I have to admit that often I am saddened, and not usually scared… (at moments)… by the response from the pastors, ministers, priest etc,.

To the message I sense with every fiber of my being! (24/7) The dire warning that beats within my old ❤️

What’s coming isn’t going to be pretty!!

Not for God’s children, at least not in the world’s eyes!

We shall be as lambs to the slaughter!

For the glory of God! And it is only temporary my friends, the suffering which will come, for me when I read;

“And in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, until iniquity pass by.” ~psalm 56:2

This, to me.. represents two of the most beautiful gifts from God, the Father which I believe He gave to me… this crazy old man: His Son’s most precious blood is in those lovely wings! And, also, for me… is Mother Mary’s protective Mantle!

Thank you all for stopping by, and reading this brokenhearted man’s cry to heaven for, the homeless, the poor, the widow’s I see… feeling they have no choice yet sell themselves for something to deaden the cries within…

May you know the peace of Christ!

And, may you get to know His most wonderful, Mother Mary!

Please pray for me? We live in dangerous times, and deception is the norm!

And, don’t forget how much God loves you!!!

Every breath is a gift of God!!! ❤️

To lament the brokenness of the church today!

This I realized is what has happened to me, I lament for the church’s brokenness!

When it comes to their treatment of the poor, homeless, the underprivileged, I weep for the hardness of their hearts, and the blood on their hands that they don’t even know is dripping from their fingers!

Our narcissistic – consumerism mentally as the supposed body of the Risen Lord, Jesus Christ, and with every purchase of whatever we just can’t live without… how many do we murder, and betray!?

How in this present darkness, of our heart blindness to the utter misery of the poor, and absolutely destitute in our own back yards do we sleep at night?

Why we don’t cry out to God from our brokenness of not truly loving our neighbors, and just maybe he will hear our prayers?!

What brought this to my attention is this, yesterday I was having a rough day, very sad, and a little uncertain about what I am doing, and attempting to cling to God for the sea of my sadness surrounded me!

Then I for some crazy reason decided to look something up on Google, thank God for Google, lol.

And I wasn’t even sure what I was doing, and then I stumbled across a title of a book, Prophetic Lament.

To be totally honest, I haven’t a clue as to what I am doing.

Except for expressing what I have read in Holy Scripture, and comparing that to what I have seen, and experienced within the church communities across this country.

This has not been my choice.

Well, yes, and no.

I do have a choice to follow what I believe God has laid upon my heart no matter how much I am loved or hated. And, my pride loves to feel liked! Lord have mercy!

I didn’t wake up one morning and think… Hay, I’ll give them a dose of their own medicine, using the Holy Scriptures to show you/us our hypocrocies towards the poor, and homeless.

The words of God concerning the poor and, needy, orphans, widowed… burned within me to the point that I have questioned my sanity at times!

This has brought me such pain, and anguish within myself for both sides, and having a horrible ability to write adequately for such an important subject to my God! Lord help me!

It has also made me into, that guy… Alone, shunned by almost everyone including within my own church, and family.

So to get back to my topic…

It was a relief, and a dagger in my heart to realise that what I have been graced with, these feelings produced by allowing the words of God to infiltrate the depths of my being, and then to allow the spirit of God, as best I can, to write what I wrote because of the simple fact that I lament for all of us, both sides!

I’m actually very scared concerning what I sense is about to unfold in our world in regards to the church, and it’s direct relationship with the poor!

And, we don’t lament for ourselves or the poor, and that is scary!

It’s difficult for me to read Holy Scripture on account of, when I read the stories in Holy Scripture…

It’s like I get to see it through God’s eyes, and heart, through time, and honestly it’s agonizingly painful, and I cry.

I know, and understand that I sound crazy, and maybe I am! Yet, I would rather be this way than the way I was before the good Lord found me, completely hateful, selfish and hating God!

So, I will cry to God for the homeless and poor, and the broken church, and to you, and pray that He will hear our cries, and heal our stone hearts so we may live together in truth, and the glory of God will draw people to you/me for it shall shine like the 🌞 for all to see!

I hope, and pray that you were able to get something out of this craziness of mine, besides the fact that I am crazy?

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of a mad man!

God bless you all!

From the very blessed lips of our own wonderful, Virgin Mary!

There is so much theologically in her statement, her Magnificat regarding the poor, the rich, the proud, and the humble, and God’s dealings with them.

These themes are beautiful threads strung throughout His Holy Scriptures, if only we would take the time to read them?!

Luke 1:46–55 (D-R):

And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord.

47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

48 Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid: for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

49 Because he that is mighty hath done great things to me: and holy is his name.

50 And his mercy is from generation unto generations, to them that fear him.

51 He hath shewed might in his arm: he hath scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart.

52 He hath put down the mighty from their seat and hath exalted the humble.

53 He hath filled the hungry with good things: and the rich he hath sent empty away.

54 He hath received Israel his servant, being mindful of his mercy.

55 As he spoke to our fathers: to Abraham and to his seed for ever.

I dedicate these passages of Holy Scripture to my wonderful, most beautiful patron saint… Mother Mary!

Continue to pray for us sinner’s dear, Mother Mary! For we all are in need of the blessings of your beloved Son, Jesus Christ the Risen Lord, our only savior!

Dear Mother Mary, I watch, and witness the degradation of the poor, homeless, widowed, and orphans, and so much more!

Please pray for us to be conformed into, the very image of the fruit of your immaculate womb, our Lord Jesus Christ!

And, to be able to live as the apostles, and followers of the Risen Lord, as in the book of Acts!?

I ask for the homeless, the poor, and the lost souls within the church’s, our most lovely Lady, Mother Mary! Amen!

I pray that those who have ears may hear, and their hearts be converted to the cross of the Risen Lord, Jesus Christ!

God bless you all and your families!

Thank you for stopping by and reading the writings of this crazy old man, for my heart breaks everyday

God, O how He loves the poor!

1 Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off ? why doest thou slight us in our wants, in times of trouble?

2 Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise.

3 For the sinner is praised in the desire of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed.

4 The sinner hath provoked the Lord, according to multitude of his wrath he will not seek him:

5 God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times. Thy judgements are removed from his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies.

6 For he has said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil.

6 His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow.

7 He sitteth in ambush with the rich in private places, that he may kill the innocent.

8 His eyes are upon the poor man: he lieth in wait in secret like a lion in his den.

9 He lieth in ambush that he may catch the poor man: to catch the poor, while he draweth him to him.

10 In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor.

11 For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face not to see to the end.

12 Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor.

13 Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.

14 Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayest deliver them into thy hands. To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.

15 Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.

16The Lord shall reign to eternity, yae, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.

17 The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.

18 To judge for the fatherless, and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.

~ Psalm 10 (according to the Hebrews)

In Luke 19:46 Jesus states, It is written: My house is the house of prayer. But you have made it a den of thieves.

What does he mean by these words?

I honestly see what Jesus is speaking about in every church I have visited.

You shall know them by their fruits!

Luke 10:25-37

25 And behold a certain lawyer stood up, tempting him and saying, Master, what must I do to possess eternal life?

26 But he said to him: What is written in the law? How readest thou?

27 He answering, said: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart and with thy whole soul and with all thy strength and with all thy mind: and thy neighbour as thyself.

28 And he said to him: Thou hast answered right. This do: and thou shalt live.

29 But he willing to justify himself, said to Jesus: And who is my neighbour?

30 And Jesus answering, said: A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among robbers, who also stripped him and having wounded him went away, leaving him half dead.

31 And it chanced, that a certain priest went down the same way: and seeing him, passed by.

32 In like manner also a Levite, when he was near the place and saw him, passed by.

33 But a certain Samaritan, being on his journey, came near him: and seeing him, was moved with compassion:

34 And going up to him, bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and setting him upon his own beast, brought him to an inn and took care of him.

35 And the next day he took out two pence and gave to the host and said: Take care of him; and whatsoever thou shalt spend over and above, I, at my return, will repay thee.

36 Which of these three, in thy opinion, was neighbour to him that fell among the robbers?

37 But he said: He that shewed mercy to him. And Jesus said to him: Go, and do thou in like manner.

And in Matthew 6:19-34 Jesus shows us a closer look at the narrow path He call’s us to walk in.

19 Lay not up to yourselves treasures on earth: where the rust, and moth consume, and where thieves break through, and steal.

20 But lay up to yourselves treasures in heaven: where neither the rust nor moth doth consume, and where thieves do not break through, nor steal.

21 For where thy treasure is, there is thy heart also.

22 The light of thy body is thy eye. If thy eye be single, thy whole body shall be lightsome.

23 But if thy eye be evil thy whole body shall be darksome. If then the light that is in thee, be darkness: the darkness itself how great shall it be!

24 No man can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one, and love the other: or he will sustain the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammom.

25 Therefore I say to you, be not solicitous for your life, what you shall eat, nor for your body, what you shall put on. Is not the life more than the meat: and the body more than the raiment?

26 Behold the birds of the air, for they neither sow, nor do they reap, nor gather into barns: and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not you of much more value than they?

27 And which of you by taking thought, can add to his stature one cubit?

28 And for raiment why are you solicitous? Concider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they labour not, neither do they spin.

29 But I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as one of these.

These are some of the most beautiful verses I have ever read in Holy Scripture!

Some say, these are to mystical sounding; no one can live like that! My response is, every prophet, and apostle… every follower is called to this path… The narrow way!?

Knowing that I take the words of the Holy Scriptures literally, as a start, is to me a beginning of wisdom. I know there is all types of writing within Holy Scripture, and knowing that I am a Catholic, even a bad example, and that God, and Mother Mary saved me from a fait worse than death! I know for a fact that the words which speak of fallen angels, the devil, and devil’s… Demonic spiritual entities are real! WE ARE AT WAR!!! Please… ARMOR UP, AND FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH!!! We save ourselves by saving our brothers and sisters 💕

Thank you for stopping by, and reading the writings of a mad man! God bless you all!

I hope and pray that any of this makes sense?! Please forgive my grammar? I know it’s atrocious!

Thank you for bearing with me through these deceiving times. Please pray for me that I am able to speak as I am supposed to, and fear nothing but God?! Thank you all for being so gracious towards me. ❤️

It is, and always shall be, the poor, and needy who will trust in the name of the Lord!

He claims this truth, all throughout His Holy Scripture!

In sad reality…

He is all we have!

And, thanks be to God… we have Him!

I’ve wandered these streets for a decade now, and I’ve never gone without!

Well, a few times where tribulations of sorts.

And, yet, I’m still here! Praise God!!!

Here’s an example: I didn’t eat anything all day yesterday, (when I went to pay my respects to my dear godmother.) and I arrived back at the Denver colosium after dinner had been over for an hour.

I was willing to go without if need be, and yet, when I came down the street there was a gentleman I had met just that morning, and he informed me that morning that he to is a Catholic, and we shared a wonderful conversation before I left for Mt. Olivet cemetery.

So as I’m approaching him to say hello… He asked me if I was hungry! I almost cried for I knew that my compassionate Mother Mary made that happen, just for little ol me! Thank you Mother Mary ❤️

And we sat down and broke bread together, as brothers.

It really is a beautiful thing to experience love like this!

Sometimes I feel like God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and dear Mother Mary pull me so close to the passion for me to see why He sacrificed Himself.

For the poor, and the brokenhearted!

The very men, and women that come across my path.

There are no mistakes in life, just choices… Each, and every day.

I know that I’m kinda rambling, forgive me? I’ll get to the point..

The whole three chapters of Zephaniah are surrounded by one main issue. Here we go…

THE word of the Lord that came to Sophonias the son of Chusi, the son of Godolias, the son of Amarias, the son of Ezechias, in the days of Josias, the son of Amon king of Juda.

2 Gathering, I will gather together all things from off the face of the land, saith the Lord:

3 I will gather man, and beast, I will gather the birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea: and the ungodly shall meet with ruin: and I will destroy men from off the face of the land, saith the Lord.

4 And I will stretch out my hand upon Juda, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and I will destroy out of this place the remnant of Baal, and the names of the wardens of the temples with the priests:

5 And them that worship the host of heaven upon the tops of houses, and them that adore, and swear by the Lord, and swear by Melchom.

6 And them that turn away from following after the Lord, and that have not sought the Lord, nor searched after him.

7 Be silent before the face of the Lord God: for the day of the Lord is near, for the Lord hath prepared a victim, he hath sanctified his guests.

Be silent before the face of the Lord God: for the day of the Lord is near, for the Lord hath prepared a victim, he hath sanctified his guests.

8 And it shall come to pass in the day of the victim of the Lord, that I will visit upon the princes, and upon the king’s sons, and upon all such as are clothed with strange apparel:

9 And I will visit in that day upon every one that entereth arrogantly over the threshold: them that fill the house of the Lord their God with iniquity and deceit.

10 And there shall be in that day, saith the Lord, the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and a howling from the Second, and a great destruction from the hills.

11 Howl, ye inhabitants of the Morter. All the people of Chanaan is hush, all are cut off that were wrapped up in silver.

12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and will visit upon the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their hearts: The Lord will not do good, nor will he do evil.

13 And their strength shall become a booty, and their houses as a desert: and they shall build houses, and shall not dwell in them: and they shall plant vineyards, and shall not drink the wine of them.

14 The great day of the Lord is near, it is near and exceeding swift: the voice of the day of the Lord is bitter, the mighty man shall there meet with tribulation.

15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of tribulation and distress, a day of calamity and misery, a day of darkness and obscurity, a day of clouds and whirlwinds,

16 A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high bulwarks.

17 And I will distress men, and they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the Lord: and their blood shall be poured out as earth, and their bodies as dung.

18 Neither shall their silver and their gold be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord: all the land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy destruction of all them that dwell in the land.

Chapter 2

ASSEMBLE yourselves together, be gathered together, O nation not worthy to be loved:

2 Before the decree bring forth the day as dust passing away, before the fierce anger of the Lord come upon you, before the day of the Lord’s indignation come upon you.

3 Seek the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, you that have wrought his judgment: seek the just, seek the meek: if by any means you may be hid in the day of the Lord’s indignation.

4 For Gaza shall be destroyed, and Ascalon shall be a desert, they shall cast out Azotus at noonday, and Accaron shall be rooted up.

5 Woe to you that inhabit the sea coast, O nation of reprobates: the word of the Lord upon you, O Chanaan, the land of the Philistines, and I will destroy thee, so that there shall not be an inhabitant.

6 And the sea coast shall be the resting place of shepherds, and folds for cattle:

7 And it shall be the portion of him that shall remain of the house of Juda, there they shall feed: in the houses of Ascalon they shall rest in the evening: because the Lord their God will visit them, and bring back their captivity.

8 I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the blasphemies of the children of Ammon, with which they reproached my people, and have magnified themselves upon their borders.

9 Therefore as I live, saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrha, the dryness of thorns, and heaps of salt, and a desert even for ever: the remnant of my people shall make a spoil of them, and the residue of my nation shall possess them.

10 This shall befall them for their pride: because they have blasphemed, and have been magnified against the people of the Lord of hosts.

11 The Lord shall be terrible upon them, and shall consume all the gods of the earth: and they shall adore him every man from his own place, all the islands of the Gentiles.

12 You Ethiopians, also shall be slain with my sword.

13 And he will stretch out his hand upon the north, and will destroy Assyria: and he will make the beautiful city a wilderness, and as a place not passable, and as a desert.

14 And flocks shall lie down in the midst thereof, all the beasts of the nations: and the bittern and the urchin shall lodge in the threshold thereof: the voice of the singing bird in the window, the raven on the upper post, for I will consume her strength.

15 This is the glorious city that dwelt in security: that said in her heart: I am, and there is none beside me: how is she become a desert, a place for beasts to lie down in? every one that passeth by her shall hiss, and wag his hand.

Chapter 3

WOE to the provoking and redeemed city, the dove.

2 She hath not hearkened to the voice, neither hath she received discipline: she hath not trusted in the Lord, she drew not near to her God.

3 Her princes are in the midst of her as roaring lions: her judges are evening wolves, they left nothing for the morning.

4 Her prophets are senseless, men without faith: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have acted unjustly against the law.

5 The just Lord is in the midst thereof, he will not do iniquity: in the morning, in the morning he will bring his judgment to light, and it shall not be hid: but the wicked man hath not known shame.

6 I have destroyed the nations, and their towers are beaten down: I have made their ways desert, so that there is none that passeth by: their cities are desolate, there is not a man remaining, nor any inhabitant.

7 I said: Surely thou wilt fear me, thou wilt receive correction: and her dwelling shall not perish, for all things wherein I have visited her: but they rose early, and corrupted all their thoughts.

8 Wherefore expect me, saith the Lord, in the day of my resurrection that is to come, for my judgment is to assemble the Gentiles, and to gather the kingdoms: and to pour upon them my indignation, all my fierce anger: for with the fire of my jealousy shall all the earth be devoured.

9 Because then I will restore to the people a chosen lip, that all may call upon the name of the Lord, and may serve him with one shoulder.

10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, shall my suppliants, the children of my dispersed people, bring me an offering.

11 In that day thou shalt not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me for then I will take away out of the midst of thee thy proud boasters, and thou shalt no more be lifted up because of my holy mountain.

12 And I will leave in the midst of thee a poor and needy people: and they shall hope in the name of the Lord.

13 The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies, nor shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed, and shall lie down, and there shall be none to make them afraid.

14 Give praise, O daughter of Sion: shout, O Israel: be glad, and rejoice with all thy heart, O daughter of Jerusalem.

15 The Lord hath taken away thy judgment, he hath turned away thy enemies: the king of Israel, the Lord, is in the midst of thee, thou shalt fear evil no more.

16 In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: Fear not: to Sion: Let not thy hands be weakened.

17 The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty, he will save: he will rejoice over thee with gladness, he will be silent in his love, he will be joyful over thee in praise.

18 The triflers that were departed from the law, I will gather together, because they were of thee: that thou mayest no more suffer reproach for them.

19 Behold I will cut off all that have afflicted thee at that time: and I will save her that halteth, and will gather her that was cast out: and I will get them praise, and a name, in all the land where they had been put to confusion.

20 At that time, when I will bring you: and at the time that I will gather you: for I will give you a name, and praise among all the people of the earth, when I shall have brought back your captivity before your eyes, saith the Lord.

The End.

Realizing there is a lot in this book, my main concern is this:

If we are the body of Christ, of the Living Lord… grafted into the vine of Israel, and are actually commanded to be more righteous than the Pharisees! What do you think will happen to those not paying attention to the truth? God bless you all

“… I CAME TO HEAL THE BROKENHEARTED…”

I’ve attached a video to help express the point I believe God in His infinite mercy, and grace has painfully pointed out to me, of all people.

There are eleven prophets which shout out about the treatment of the poor!

God, in my blind observation of scripture, hates the people who mistreat the homeless, the poor!

He wiped out Israel for their treatment of the poor!

Sending them into exile!

Honestly, I’m afraid for the church, and those that claim to be God’s children, and are not!

These deceiving themselves: entertain demonic teachings, and are deceived in their own lust!

Thank you for stopping by!

God bless you all!

The mercies of our Shepard!

If we as His sheep, His children would only truly believe, what He has told us!

Thank the Lord I found my dear godmother’s gravesite! It really turned out different than I expected, of course, God’s in charge, and I know Blessed Mother Mary was there, as I said my rosary!

I’m very happy today turned out as it did. Thank you God for your loving kindness towards the likes of me.

This leads me to the 106th Psalm…

I hope you enjoy this! It’s truly beautiful ❤️

GIVE glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

2 Let them say so that have been redeemed by the Lord, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy: and gathered out of the countries.

3 From the rising and from the setting of the sun, from the north and from the sea.

4 They wandered in a wilderness, in a place without water: they found not the way of a city for their habitation.

5 They were hungry and thirsty: their soul fainted in them.

6 And they cried to the Lord in their tribulation: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

7 And he led them into the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

8 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.

9 For he hath satisfied the empty soul, and hath filled the hungry soul with good things.

10 Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death: bound in want and in iron.

11 Because they had exasperated the words of God: and provoked the counsel of the most High:

12 And their heart was humbled with labours: they were weakened, and there was none to help them.

13 Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

14 And he brought them out of darkness, and the shadow of death; and broke their bonds in sunder.

15 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.

16 Because he hath broken gates of brass, and burst iron bars.

17 He took them out of the way of their iniquity: for they were brought low for their injustices.

18 Their soul abhorred all manner of meat: and they drew nigh even to the gates of death.

19 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

20 He sent his word, and healed them: and delivered them from their destructions.

21 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.

22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifice of praise: and declare his works with joy.

23 They that go down to the sea in ships, doing business in the great waters:

24 These have seen the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.

25 He said the word, and there arose a storm of wind: and the waves thereof were lifted up.

26 They mount up to the heavens, and they go down to the depths: their soul pined away with evils.

27 They were troubled, and reeled like a drunken man; and all their wisdom was swallowed up.

28 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he brought them out of their distresses.

29 And he turned the storm into a breeze: and its waves were still.

30 And they rejoiced because they were still: and he brought them to the haven which they wished for.

31 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.

32 And let them exalt him in the church of the people: and praise him in the chair of the ancients.

33 He hath turned rivers into a wilderness: and the sources of waters into dry ground:

34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

35 He hath turned a wilderness into pools of waters, and a dry land into water springs.

36 And hath placed there the hungry; and they made a city for their habitation.

37 Anti they sowed fields, and planted vineyards: and they yielded fruit of birth.

38 And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly: and their cattle he suffered not to decrease.

39 Then they were brought to be few: and they were afflicted through the trouble of evils and sorrow.

40 Contempt was poured forth upon their princes: and he caused them to wander where there was no passing, and out of the way.

41 And he helped the poor out of poverty: and made him families like a flock of sheep.

42 The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

43 Who is wise, and will keep these things; and will understand the mercies of the Lord?

Being so grateful for so many mercies…

Going to bid you all a good night, and God bless! ❤️

Wandering men of God, by faith they walked!

Living in a world where everyday you sense could be your last.

Especially, living on the streets you are keenly aware of this reality, every moment, of each and every day!

Mentioning this because of the life I have been graced to live these last few years.

The good Lord, bless His Holy Name, has been so overwhelming merciful towards me!!! A great sinner… He has shined His glorious, and most beautiful light through this miserable soul!

Thank you O beautifully crucified Lord, for your incomparable love towards me!

You love me so much that you promised me a resurrection just like Yours!

You also promised me that, to follow You would mean for me to pick up my cross, and follow You through my passion, as You have laid out before me, from before the beginning of creation!

To follow Christ means a man must die to self, and follow his Shepard. This i stole from Deitrick Bonhoeffer, in his book, the Cost of Discipleship. A most challenging read! Yet, very eye opening.

Here are some passages that came to my attention after spending the day, off and on, with a certified high priest of the temple of Satan. He even showed me his tattoos, none of which you can get without being who you say you are! These are the lost souls I hang out with everyday out here. This man is blind, has been for seven months, and everyone has absolutely abandoned him. It was a good reflection for me. Because, I was him not so long ago, four years. So, here are those passages…

Hebrews 11, the whole thing.

NOW, faith is the substance of things to be hoped for, the evidence of things that appear not.

2 For by this the ancients obtained a testimony.

3 By faith we understand that the world was framed by the word of God: that from invisible things visible things might be made.

4 By faith Abel offered to God a sacrifice exceeding that of Cain, by which he obtained a testimony that he was just, God giving testimony to his gifts. And by it he being dead yet speaketh.

5 By faith Henoch was translated that he should not see death: and he was not found because God had translated him. For before his translation he had testimony that he pleased God.

6 But without faith it is impossible to please God. For he that cometh to God must believe that he is: and is a rewarder to them that seek him.

7 By faith Noe, having received an answer concerning those things which as yet were not seen, moved with fear, framed the ark for the saving of his house: by the which he condemned the world and was instituted heir of the justice which is by faith.

8 By faith he that is called Abraham obeyed to go out into a place which he was to receive for an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing whither he went.

9 By faith he abode in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in cottages, with Isaac and Jacob, the co-heirs of the same promise.

10 For he looked for a city that hath foundations: whose builder and maker is God.

11 By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to conceive seed, even past the time of age: because she believed that he was faithful who had promised,

12 For which cause there sprung even from one (and him as good as dead) as the stars of heaven in multitude and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.

13 All these died according to faith, not having received the promises but beholding them afar off and saluting them and confessing that they are pilgrims and strangers on the earth.

14 For they that say these things do signify that they seek a country.

15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that from whence they came out, they had doubtless, time to return.

16 But now they desire a better, that is to say, a heavenly country. Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.

17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,

18 To whom it was said: In Isaac shalt thy seed be called:)

19 Accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Whereupon also he received him for a parable.

20 By faith also of things to come Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau.
21 By faith Jacob, dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and adored the top of his rod.

22 By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the going out of the children of Israel and gave commandment concerning his bones.

23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his parents: because they saw he was a comely babe, and they feared not the king’s edict.

24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, denied himself to be the son of Pharao’s daughter:

25 Rather choosing to be afflicted with the people of God than to have the pleasure of sin for a time:

26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasure of the Egyptians. For he looked unto the reward.

27 By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the fierceness of the king: for he endured, as seeing him that is invisible.

28 By faith he celebrated the pasch and the shedding of the blood: that he who destroyed the firstborn might not touch them.

29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea, as by dry land: which the Egyptians attempting, were swallowed up.

30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, by the going round them seven days.

31 By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with the unbelievers, receiving the spies with peace.

32 And what shall I yet say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, Barac, Samson, Jephthe, David, Samuel, and the prophets:

33 Who by faith conquered kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, recovered strength from weakness, became valiant in battle, put to flight the armies of foreigners.

35 Women received their dead raised to life again. But others were racked, not accepting deliverance, that they might find a better resurrection.

36 And others had trial of mockeries and stripes: moreover also of bands and prisons.

37 They were stoned, they were cut asunder, they were tempted, they were put to death by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being in want, distressed, afflicted:

38 Of whom the world was not worthy: wandering in deserts, in mountains and in dens and in caves of the earth.

39 And all these, being approved by the testimony of faith, received not the promise:

40 God providing some better thing for us, that they should not be perfected without us.

Please understand, I face temptation every day, and no I’m not special just graced.

As I typed those two last words… it stuck me… Those special words… Just, as in God’s cry to us to be just. The merciful kind. His kind of Justice. Grace, what can I really say!? It is a gift of God! Help us dear Lord, we believe, help my unbelief!

I pray for the oppressors of the homeless, the poor… Lord have mercy!

The very first chapter of Isaiah is a clear window to see through concerning how the good Lord See’s the homeless, poor, widowed, orphans and the oppressed. Not only globally yet, in our own back yard!

These are the days that Jesus, and the apostle Paul warned us about! (II Timothy 3rd chapter!)

Jesus says in John 12:42-50… ( I placed it in bold type to place the emphasis on His Words, and not mine, I talk to much anyway. Yet, His Words of light, and life, are so important in these days, this present darkness.)

42 However, many of the chief men also believed in him: but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, that they might not be cast out of the synagogue.

43 For they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.

44 But Jesus cried and said: He that believeth in me doth not believe in me, but in him that sent me.

45 And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.

46 I am come, a light into the world, that whosoever believeth in me may not remain in darkness.

47 And if any man hear my words and keep them not, I do not judge him for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

48 He that despiseth me and receiveth not my words hath one that judgeth him. The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

49 For I have not spoken of myself: but the Father who sent me, he gave me commandment what I should say and what I should speak.

50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting. The things therefore that I speak, even as the Father said unto me, so do I speak.

Now to me, this speaks for the eternity of God’s words.

For they are living words, spoken from the beginning! By Jesus as John says in his first chapter…

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

The same was in the beginning with God.

All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made.

In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. ~ John 1:1-5

These words alone are quite telling to me about the eternity of God’s words throughout scripture. It also tells me that from from the time the light of the world walked among us… It has gotten darker, and darker… Until when He comes, will He find any faith on earth? This is a call for the greatest commandments:

Matthew 22:35 And one of them, a doctor of the law, asked him, tempting him:

36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

37 Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart and with thy whole soul and with thy whole mind.

38 This is the greatest and the first commandment.

39 And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.

Now, here is the very first chapter of Isaiah… ( to me this is a heavy indiaghtment against the modern day church, the industrial military complex, capitalism, consumerism, and anyone with extreme execs. We are supposed to be the light of the World! We are not supposed to dance with the devil, and believe everything will be alright! And that is exactly what we are doing,

THE vision of Isaias the Son of Amos, which he saw concerning Juda and Jerusalem in the days of Ozias, Joathan, Achaz, and Ezechias, kings of Juda.

2 Hear, O ye heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the Lord hath spoken. I have brought up children, and exalted them: but they have despised me.

3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel hath not known me, and my people hath not understood.

4 Woe to the sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a wicked seed, ungracious children: they have forsaken the Lord, they have blasphemed the Holy One of Israel, they are gone away backwards.

5 For what shall I strike you any more, you that increase transgression? the whole head is sick, and the whole heart is sad.

6 From the sole of the foot unto the top of the head, there is no soundness therein: wounds and bruises and swelling sores: they are not bound up, nor dressed, nor fomented with oil.

7 Your land is desolate, your cities are burnt with fire: your country strangers devour before your face, and it shall be desolate as when wasted by enemies.

8 And the daughter of Sion shall be left as a covert in a vineyard, and as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, and as a city that is laid waste.

9 Except the Lord of hosts had left us seed, we had been as Sodom, and we should have been like to Gomorrha.

10 Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom, give ear to the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrha.

11 To what purpose do you offer me the multitude of your victims, saith the Lord? I am full, I desire not holocausts of rams, and fat of fatlings, and blood of calves, and lambs, and buck goats.

12 When you came to appear before me, who required these things at your hands, that you should walk in my courts?

13 Offer sacrifice no more in vain: incense is an abomination to me. The new moons, and the sabbaths and other festivals I will not abide, your assemblies are wicked.

14 My soul hateth your new moons, and your solemnities: they are become troublesome to me, I am weary of bearing them.

15 And when you stretch forth your hands, I will turn away my eyes from you: and when you multiply prayer, I will not hear: for your hands are full of blood.

16 Wash yourselves, be clean, take away the evil of your devices from my eyes, cease to do perversely,

17 Learn to do well: seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge for the fatherless, defend the widow.

18 And then come, and accuse me, saith the Lord: if your sins be as scarlet, they shall be made as white as snow: and if they be red as crimson, they shall be white as wool.

19 If you be willing, and will hearken to me, you shall eat the good things of the land.

20 But if you will not, and will provoke me to wrath: the sword shall devour you because the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

21 How is the faithful city, that was full of judgment, become a harlot? justice dwelt in it, but now murderers.

22 Thy silver is turned into dross: thy wine is mingled with water.

23 Thy princes are faithless, companions of thieves: they all love bribes, they run after rewards. They judge not for the fatherless: and the widow’s cause cometh not in to them.

24 Therefore saith the Lord the God of hosts, the mighty one of Israel: Ah! I will comfort myself over my adversaries: and I will be revenged of my enemies.

25 And I will turn my hand to thee, and I will clean purge away thy dross, and I will take away all thy tin.

26 And I will restore thy judges as they were before, and thy counsellors as of old. After this thou shalt be called the city of the just, a faithful city.

27 Sion shall be redeemed in judgment, and they shall bring her back in justice.

28 And he shall destroy the wicked, and the sinners together: and they that have forsaken the Lord, shall be consumed.

29 For they shall be confounded for the idols, to which they have sacrificed: and you shall be ashamed of the gardens which you have chosen.

30 When you shall be as an oak with the leaves falling off, and as a garden without water.

31 And your strength shall be as the ashes of tow, and your work as a spark: and both shall burn together, and there shall be none to quench it.

I hope and pray, that this brings what the spirit of the Lord speaks throughout all of Holy Scripture in regards to His concern regarding the position between His people and the poor, needy, homeless, widowed, fatherless?! The soulfully broken are waiting for us to bring the message in a very profound, mind blowing way!

In Luke 4:18-19

The spirit of the Lord is upon me. Wherefore he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the contrite of heart,

19 To preach deliverance to the captives and sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of reward.

May the Lord open our eyes, and heart before it’s too late for so many souls lost in our sins!?

I really hope that this makes a little sense? I do get carried away with it sometimes. Any inaccuracies are completely mine.

Thank you for stopping by and reading my craziness.

Do penance: for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand.

My soul cries out to the Risen Lord: that he would open the eyes of his blind children!

So that they can see through his eyes.

How the modern day church has turned into a perpetual Cain: slaying his brother Able…

Slaughtering the very image of God all day long.

The one’s that cry out to the Risen Lord from there heart and soul…

Cry to God for mercy…

Cry to God for love…

Cry to God for compassion…

Cry to God for his true Justice…

For they know that he is the only one that they have to turn to!

Because, everyone else has already abandoned them!

Including, themselves!

There is an old saying: When you dance with the devil, the devil doesn’t change, the devil changes you!

The reason being that the modern church has chosen mammom, and is but a phantom of it’s true self.

The Light of the World!

He is the only hope that they have because, the modern day church has abandoned them too!

This is the fruits of your labor: there are 6.000 homeless on the streets of Denver Colorado!

Why is that?

I pray that God will forgive us, and open our eyes to our brothers, and sisters plights!

That he will forgive our coldness of heart, and inflame our dead hearts with his all consuming fire of love!

To see Able, and not slay him through our thoughtlessness, and pride.

I have lived in many states as a homeless person.

And, every time I look around, and see all the lonely, abandoned, grief stricken, mournful, sad, and the sorrow in everyone’s eyes, because they know no one is coming to truly help, and love them as they need… it turns me to God because my heart breaks, and I too have no one else to turn to. Yet, for me, I am grateful to be able to turn to him. For he is my strength, and my only hope!

This beings to mind the second letter Paul wrote young Timothy.

KNOW also this, that in the last days shall come dangerous times.

2 Men shall be lovers of themselves, covetous, haughty, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, wicked,

3 Without affection, without peace, slanderers, incontinent, unmerciful, without kindness,

4 Traitors, stubborn, puffed up, and lovers of pleasure more than of God:

5 Having an appearance indeed of godliness but denying the power thereof. Now these avoid.

6 For of these sort are they who creep into houses and lead captive silly women laden with sins, who are led away with divers desires:

7 Ever learning, and never attaining to the knowledge of the truth. ~ II Timothy 3:1-7

Also…

For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, in the face of Jesus Christ. ~ II Corinthians 4:6

Please read the rest of the chapter!?

And all this brings to my heart the verses in the book of Acts 4:29-35.

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants that with all confidence they may speak thy word,

30 By stretching forth thy hand to cures and signs and wonders, to be done by the name of thy holy Son, Jesus.

31 And when they had prayed, the place was moved wherein they were assembled: and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost: and they spoke the word of God with confidence.

32 And the multitude of believers had but one heart and one soul. Neither did any one say that aught of the things which he possessed was his own: but all things were common unto them.

33 And with great power did the Apostles give testimony of the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord: and great grace was in them all.

34 For neither was there any one needy among them. For as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them and brought the price of the things they sold,

35 And laid it down before the feet of the apostles. And distribution was made to every one, according as he had need.

Now that is beautiful to me.

O come Lord Jesus Christ, and forgive us our coldness, and heartlessness… Our blindness to the very image of you sitting on the streets suffering alone! Amen!

Immaculate heart of the Ever Virgin Mary, please pray for us to your merciful Son for His divine intervention to the Father, God, and remind Him of His Son’s sacrifice on our behalf upon His bloody cross!? And, the being our example, please pray for us to also remember our end of the covenant He has gifted to us through His precious blood, body, and soul to His lost children!? Amen! Amen!

O Lord, open their eyes!

For I fear that many will perish thinking that they are the chosen ones, and in the end, find themselves in the line for goats, and not the line of the sheep… Who hear their Masters voice! Avoiding any who are not His voice, and working out their salvation with fear and trembling!

I hope and pray, that you will see as the Risen Lord, Jesus Christ See’s!

Not with a heart of stone…

Yet, with a heart on fire for the Kingdom of heaven, and the lost sheep of His Kingdom!

This is one of my favorite verses in all of scripture. Psalm 119:176

I have gone astray like a lost sheep that is lost: seek thy servant, because I have not forgotten thy commandments.

Thank you for stopping by, and reading what the Risen Lord, Jesus Christ has laid upon this old heart!

God bless you all!

And, please remember, God wants to reason with us, and not condem us to the lake of fire!

Chose life, not death! Amen!

A beautiful, and Terrifying thought!

Yet, this is what we are called to!

I’m not sure how you may interpret these verses?

Yet, for me they scream loudly how we are called to suffer for our brothers and sisters!

My brother/sister is my salvation!

Or, maybe I’m just crazy, and weep for nothing?!

The Immaculate Virgin Mary please pray for us to your Son, Jesus The Christ for the grace to follow in His glorious footsteps! For our will is weak, and afraid, and our flesh cries out for comfort from the weather, and people’s hatred, and anger! Pray for us Mother Mary! And please pray for the ones that abuse us! Amen!

A note, it’s important to remember to pray for one another more than ever before.

Have mercy Lord!

You are my mercy Lord!

2 Corinthians 1:9–11 (D-R):

9 But we had in ourselves the answer of death, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raiseth the dead.

10 Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us,

11 You helping withal in prayer for us. That for this gift obtained for us, by the means of many persons, thanks may be given by many in our behalf.

Thank you for stopping by and reading the blog post from this crazy old man 🤠

God bless you all!

Works of mercy, love of wisdom!

These words come from the book of Ecclesiasticus or the book of Sirach, and they speak directly to the man on the street, and his relationship towards the poor.  If this bothers you on account of it coming from a “Catholic Bible” ? Please note that these books were included in the “King James Bible” for over two hundred years.

Son, defraud not the poor of alms, and turn not away thy eyes from the poor.

Despise not the hungry soul: and provoke not the poor in his want.

Afflict not the heart of the needy, and defer not to give to him that is in distress.

Reject not the petition of the afflicted: and turn not away thy face from the needy.

Turn not away thy eyes from the poor for fear of anger: and leave not to them that ask of thee to curse thee behind thy back.

For the prayer of him that curseth thee in the bitterness of his soul, shall be heard, for he that made him will hear him.

Make thyself affable to the congregation of the poor, and humble thy soul to the ancient, the bow thy head to the great man.

Bow down thy ear cheerfully to the poor, and pay what thou owest, and answer him with peaceable words with mildness.

Deliver him that suffereth wrong out of the hand of the proud: and be not fainthearted in thy soul.

In judging be merciful to the fatherless as a father, and as a husband to their mother.

And thou shalt be as the obedient son of the most High, and he will have mercy on thee more than a mother. – Sirach 4:1-11

Then shall the just answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, and fed thee, thirsty, and have thee drink?

And when did we see thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and covered thee?

Or when did we see thee sick or in prison, and came to thee?

And the King answering, shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me. – Matthew 25: 37-40

I wonder if these are the same voices?

Is God the same yesterday, today and forever?

Or could man in his infinite wisdom change God!?

I don’t think so.

God bless you, and have mercy upon me.

Thank you for reading this blog.

In Littleton CO, by September 5th.

I’ve been holding off on this matter for to long.

So, today I started putting out feelers such as, a rideshare on Craigslist. This one is my last ditch effort, only if I have no other way. And it’s funny because, I’m the kinda guy who does research lol. So the price for a Amtrak ticket is less than if I drove myself, and a round trip is the same as the one way ticket!

I looked into grayhound, yet they are limited on routes and time. Yet I know me, and because of my back I will not be using grayhound.

I have noticed that this journey I’m about to head out on is loaded with heavy emotions, grief for one, of course, regrets! That’s the one thing!

My pride, and anger, not at my godmother yet, at God, and the Holy Roman Catholic Church! Yes, I said that.

My godmother was a presious pearl! One of a kind! Totally devoted to our Lord Jesus Christ and his Mother Mary. She was a beautiful woman from her ❤️ outward… Her smile would light up your spirit 😊 I miss her, and regret hurting her feelings, and not getting the chance to repent and make amends to such a sweet soul!

This journey is for that amends I owe her.

I’m not trying to throw anyone under the bus yet, Tom understands better what I am attempting to accomplish within a Holy Roman Catholic Church sorta way. Making a full circle in this journey to Littleton. Denver Colorado is where I met my late wife in 1995. I haven’t been there since.

I have so much to pray for, and about! Praise and Thanksgiving! Because I know how much the Lord loves me. Even though I am totally unworthy of it. He still loves this crazy old man 😂

I am grateful!

Thank you for reading. This was more personal, and I wanted to share what’s going on in my little world.

God bless you all!

Please pray for me? Not about the trip so much yet, for me to be open to serve God as he wishes!?

To be open, and willing to truthfully consider my godmother’s last words to me!?

Okay, now that I have opened my heart here, let’s see what God does with this!

The Lord is always full of mercy!

I wanted to share that my friend is out of the hospital, and all seems well. We were going camping yet, there are to many fires in northern California right now to risk getting caught in a bad situation.

So we’ll stay put, and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, and Mother Mary to provide for us, and guide us through this time!

Thank you all for your prayers, and love extended to two complete strangers, sojourners, if you will!

God bless you all! Thank you again very much for your time and help!

Missions vs., God’s people!?

It’s a funny thing to think that people generally point any homeless person towards the missions for help, and assistance.

I’m writing this in a response from a nurse at the hospital in Redding CA.

My friend is having a day surgery today. He’s supposed to rest for a week so his hernia surgery will heal up. Yet, being poor and homeless in this kind of situation could lead to serious problems.

He was able to rent a room in a local motel for two days, the day before the surgery, and tonight’s room after the surgery. Then he’s back living in his car during the healing from the surgery.

Honestly I’m a little concerned! Would anyone please send out request for prayer!? God knows his name.

God bless you all!

Thank you for reading this blog!

Who is exactly destroying the earth, and what may happen to the destroyers of the earth?

Revelation 11:18

“And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.”

This verse has always intrigued me for being in a book that seems to lead people into thinking that taking dominion over the earth, and in such an understanding of dominion have been slowly yet progressively destroying the earth!?

This reminds me of the book of Amos, and the Rich who were abusing the poor, and taking advantage of the poor. And in Ezekiel where he compared Israel to Sodom and Gamorah, and how they were actually worst than these two cities full of iniquities, and especially the way that they treated the poor, and needy!

Now to me I see the connection between Revelations 11:18, the prophet Amos, Isaiah, and Ezekiel is, through our greed, narcissistic living, emotionally unstable inclinations towards self, as opposed to consideration’s for others, and their needs is all wrapped up in selfishness, idolatry, and through our lusts we serve… we destroy the Lord’s beautiful world just for profit, and the illusion of power! Just the opposite of, love God with all of your heart, soul, mind, and strength! And love your neighbor as yourself!

Just a thought.

God bless you all!

Have a wonderful day!

Rich ministries and the poor?!

Here is a link to an article that always gets under my proverbial skin!

Rich Preacher’s getting rich through the use, and abuse of the poor! Kinda how missions are run to my observation, money makers off the homeless! These are not Christian concepts, doctrines or something I read about in scripture. Actually I read just the opposite…

1 Timothy 5:10, 6:3 – 10!

Especially verses 5-10, in 1 Timothy are quite revealing! 5 “Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, SUPPOSING GAIN IS GODLINESS: FROM SUCH WITHDRAW THYSELF.” 6 “but godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lust, WHICH DROWN MEN IN DESTRUCTION AND PERDITION. 10 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.”

The emphasis is mine by the way.

God bless you all!

Have a wonderful day!
