forgiveness: RESENTMENT a second look
- 08/21/21 06:45 AM
Resentment is not natural or new but instead a type of dark intruder making the rounds and wanting very much to enter into the one who is resenting and does so successfully. It uses an advance form of deception to carry out its agenda and maintain its existence with a healthy dose of temptation to propel itself. Once it catches on, it goes to work not on the other but on you. You have been tricked!
JUDGEMENT
We are taught and have read NOT to judge less you be judged and this is true. However there is more to explore here. I am … (10 comments)

forgiveness: APOLOGY (spiritual theme)
- 01/19/20 06:55 AM
Have you ever wondered why apologizing is so hard and painful to the one doing it? I am speaking of the real deal where YOU know what you did, why you did it and how it was not appropriate and some ancient and powerful dynamic driven by your conscience or (?) at work compels you to approach this subject with humility and give it the respect it deserves? If genuine it will sting but for a good cause
I WAS WRONG
Right & wrong remain subjective terms is where we will start. My right or wrong belongs to me & my beliefs as does … (12 comments)

forgiveness: YOU'RE RIGHT EVEN WHEN WRONG? (spiritual theme)
- 12/27/19 06:57 AM
All of the life experience remains personal and subjective. What I like you may not and if I am cold you may be warm. How then can we argue what we are sharing? In the world of personal truths all are correct unto themselves. Its when others get involved compromise and perhaps perspectives change the dynamics. Lets take customer service for an example
THE CUSTOMER ISN'T ALWAYS RIGHT BUT THEY ARE NEVER WRONG
I discovered this decades ago and it has served me well. Consider that you can find and critique anyone about anything but then ask yourself where is this going & why? In … (22 comments)

forgiveness: PATIENCE PONDER THIS
- 05/05/19 06:47 AM
What most people don't know is that another word for patience is love. The word "patience" substitutes nicely wherever the word "love" is used. To get an even better understanding of this reverse the thinking analogy. Impatience is the lack of love in that moment. When your cup of patience has run dry, love has all but poured out
WE DON'T CHOOSE IMPATIENCE
Stop and think about this. We don't say to ourselves I am not going to love or be impatient today. That is a foreign thought. What happens is that whatever patience we have or think we have is called upon and we find … (7 comments)

forgiveness: CHILDHOOD ABUSE (the way back)
- 12/31/18 06:49 AM
This continues to be a very tough subject for many adults who grew up in dysfunctional family environments. Being a kid is a pleasant full time job and while a simple life in its theory, sometimes negative circumstances can make it into something else. I am talking about being abused when growing up and how it effects the course of that child as they approach adult hood
WARNING: THIS IS A MATURE POST THAT CAN CAUSE SOME UNPLEASANTNESS FOR SOME
First, my own story. My father was a disciplinarian type person who thought hitting and punishing someone was the cure-all for everything. Taking that … (2 comments)

HE has/does/did help us. The plan of salvation for ones soul through repentance which is the asking and granting of a change of heart and beliefs together with humility powered by faith with large doses of grace and mercy is in place. THANK GOD it is. Now, all we have to do is accept it. I am reminded of this every-time I hear...GOD HELP US...
TRULY LIVE
For God so loved the world that he didn't want anyone to perish but re-join him. What amazes me is the plan for redemption went into affect long before we knew about it. It was given without the asking. Ponder that. … (1 comments)

forgiveness: COME ALL YE FAITHFUL ( praise post)
- 12/23/17 03:11 PM
You see there are life-forms, countless ones who we no nothing about as well as the known ones... like Angels, Cherubim, and Seraphim who celebrate the presence of Christ eternally without interruption. They are the blessed and HE is their reward. The joy is unspeakable and never ending from everlasting to everlasting without end.
CHRIST IS THE CENTER
The center must hold. If it does not, things collapse into themselves having no worth or value. Christ is the center of all and his center will never perish and his Kingdom is without end. Furthermore, it pleases the father to bestow on His son...all power … (7 comments)

forgiveness: GIVE AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN
- 11/07/16 10:38 PM
We live in a world both visible and invisible that is based and built on the solid principal of give and take or send and receive. The concept is solid, performs flawlessly and enables all to have what we call life without the asking. It gets better too. Everything on the planet and during your personal but meaningful brief journey here interacts with everything else in wondrous ways both known and unknown. There are awesome powers at work constantly everywhere
SYMBIOSIS
In the Greek, this is defined being broken down into two words "living together" in a close, long term relationship that comes from and … (14 comments)

forgiveness: HURT
- 05/05/16 12:55 AM
Here is a sword that when cutting both ways, cuts deep. When we are the product of deliberate hurt or unintentional hurt, it hurts and that hurt is not limited to the physical realms. That's what makes it hurt and deep too. We know that deliberately inflicting a hurt on someone is one powerful blow because you had it done to you. You know it works because it hurt you
IT HURTS
Pain is pain and we all feel it differently but share the episode and symptoms in common just not to the same degrees. When something takes place and that action inflicts a pain, it … (6 comments)

forgiveness: THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER
- 04/04/15 12:50 AM
Stop to appreciate this ditty of a statement and when you have heard it or used it. It does make a point and makes one wonder how or why it is being used. We should be telling the truth all the time and the truth should be telling us and there should be no other way. Perhaps this is an emphasis of a sort?
BE NO GOOD AT THIS
Telling the truth is so rewarding in and of itself. It takes no effort, planning, thinking, or practice either. You don't even have to teach it or have it explained as it is the … (4 comments)

forgiveness: DON'T DO IT!
- 03/11/15 12:06 AM
Everyone in jail or prison is trying to get out. No need to take a poll because 100% agree that they don't want to stay or be there regretting the circumstance that caused it too. While we are at it, visit any courtroom of your choice and you will get instantly what you shouldn't do or want to end up in
THE CLASSROOMS OF LIFE
If there ever was a deterrent to help people BEHAVE themselves, jail, prison, hospitals and courts of law stand out very well. The lessons learned when visiting these places or with the people immersed in them are all self-evident too. Life … (2 comments)

forgiveness: ETHICS AND MORALS WORK WELL UNTIL THEY DON'T
- 11/19/14 11:09 PM
During the World Wars which were new to everyone all over this planet, you were never to cooperate with the enemy upon being captured. However, it was decided at some point that name, rank and serial number was relevant and necessary. On anything else no matter how trivial, you were told to clam up!
EASIER SAID THEN DONE
That was the rule and men lived by it out in the open but in secret and circumstances, another dynamic took place. They were tested on these beliefs.Torture changed all that and men broke and talked. Shamed for the conduct but also perplexed as to … (2 comments)

Available now, the latest release from the PEARLS SERIES of books allows us to explore the themes of redemption, salvation and the coveted must have "second chance" that we all need and require. WHY? Life is set-up to be lived on a learning curve traveling as we go and making necessary corrections
TRIAL & ERROR

forgiveness: WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO STOP YOU
- 09/10/14 08:11 AM
I know the story of an aggressive unscrupulous man who insisted on his ways under all conditions making many miserable (including himself) as he went about acting out wildly his personal and professional life. Because he had such a powerful presence, was verbally abusive and an expert at intimidation, he got his way to the detriment of all. But then, something happened which allows one to consider from many points of view
BE STILL AND KNOW
Perhaps you know of or have dealt with someone like this. Well, this man got into a situation that led to him losing both his legs and laid up in a hospital … (5 comments)

forgiveness: DO YOU JUDGE OTHERS THIS STORY MAY HELP
- 08/20/14 01:05 AM
I discovered this when I was a kid but the impact of it didn't come until I was a young adult. It opened my eyes to the subtlety of life and circumstances that are no respecter of persons either. What makes one person have misfortune and another success? One little incident can change the course of someones life.
THE PREMISE
Two kids grow up in a poor neighborhood with little or no adult supervision. They are not bad kids but mischievous full of energy and exploring and testing their abilities, strengths and gifts not even knowing what they are doing when they are doing it...Such is innocence. Such … (13 comments)

forgiveness: WATCH THE MEASURE YOU DISH OUT
- 08/07/14 03:47 AM
It will be used in a most surprising way. If what you believe is appropriate to put into play with another, then it must by virtue of your own beliefs and standards be good enough for you too. BUT WAIT, you don't understand! There is a story attached to your measure being dispensed. That's what makes it complicated and throws you off track...In the land of measures, the final dynamics take on a different meaning
PAUSE AND CONSIDER
It will be done to you as you believe. This requires no explanation because it is self-evident. It gives one a free hand to believe but allows them to consider carefully … (2 comments)

forgiveness: WE FORGET THE POWER WE HAVE
- 07/16/14 12:13 AM
Lets start with your word. This can accomplish great feats, motivate people, create, destroy and cause movement that leads to action or inaction. Stop and ponder this. I meet people all-day who completely misuse and disrespect their own word that comes out of their mouth. I come from the point of view that I believe a person until I have a reason not to believe that person. The persons word controls that outcome
I DON'T GET IT
Here's another. What price do you put on credibility? Your word supports this action and if you misuse your word, you automatically lose credibility. These things are are beyond purchase and more important than … (6 comments)
