Floral Remedy

Kindred, 


What is your achilles heel or weakness within your spirit which requires a remedy?  


Do you know?


No one goes through life impervious to weakness of spirit.


The good news is that there is always a remedy available from the Holy Spirit.


"Ask and it will be given to you; 


Seek and you will find; 


knock and the door will be opened to you.  


For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds;


and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened."

                                               - Matthew 7:7-8


But, beware the ask must be of good things, not bad or selfish ways (Matthew 7:11).


Do not open doors unless invited in after the knock, because you need to-


"Do for others what you want them to do for you; this is the meaning of the Law of Moses and of the teachings of the prophets".   


                                               - Matthew 7:12       

 

Do you have a flaw which requires an ask for a floral remedy?

Trust in the Lord

Lord,


Grant me the serenity to accept the things 

I cannot change, 

the courage to change the things I can,

and wisdom to know the difference.


                                         -Serenity Prayer*



It is difficult to let go of anger and malcontent, especially when life is not perfect and so many things are in jeopardy of falling apart.  


It is difficult to acknowledge the things beyond our control, especially for the control freaks. 


It is difficult not to wake up angry, especially when you do not trust the people in charge to have your best interest at heart and you have to wonder if those people have a heart.  


It is difficult to not let the noise of malcontent, selfish desires and varying interests, confuse the priorities of getting everyone on track toward a coherent vision of peace and prosperity, especially if not all have the same wish.  


It is difficult, but not undoable to come together and work to accomplish goals toward mutual interests of peace and prosperity.  


The Lord will guide the way if only you allow for it. 


Beware the malcontents and agitators that will hender, control through ignorance and abuse of power.  


Be aware and follow the guiding lights that will pave the way.  


Trust in the Lord.  


Trust in the holy, not unholy, the wise, not the unwise, the peacemakers not the agitators, because only the holy, the wise and peacemakers actually follow the Lord.

Ephemerality of Inspiration

Kindred,


It boggles the mind, the mysteries that can be solved, the cures that can be found, if only there is the heart, the mind and will to find it.  


Few recognize the fragility of process, the ephemerality of inspiration and the haziness of discovery.  


None can be fully realized without respect for the process and the persons solving the mysteries and finding the cures.


Sure, there are those ignorant of process, inspiration and discovery that believe and behave otherwise.  


But then those ignorant abusers are not the ones with the ability to create, innovate or solve any real world problems.  


If able, prove it.  


Hypothesis should be tested.  


Theories should be proven.  


Too bad before the abuses, the disrespect or destruction, the ignorant abusers do not bother to figure out where a person is in the Lord's Process or understand the fragility of process, ephemerality of inspiration and the haziness of discovery.


Now, you will never know all that was destroyed and not able to be salvaged.  


Nor will you fully know the level of sacrilege and sins perpetrated until investigated, confessed, repented and atoned.


How do you know that none of the ignorant, nonsense and abusive acts were helpful and holy?


By putting yourself on the receiving end of the same ignorant, nonsense and abusive acts.  


What if the same things were to happen to you?  


If you ever hope to have people or children with the heart, the mind and will to solve the mysteries of the universe and find the cures to disease, perhaps you should realize and respect the fragility of process, the ephemerality of inspiration and the haziness of discovery; and the place a person has (assigned by the Lord from talents given) in the Lord's Process.

Yoda Quotes

 

"A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind.... All his life has he looked away...to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmph. Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless."


“To answer power with power, the Jedi way this is not. In this war, a danger there is, of losing who we are.”


“To be Jedi is to face the truth, and choose. Give off light, or darkness, Padawan. Be a candle, or the night.” 


"Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering."


"If once you start down the dark side, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will."


"Do not assume anything Obi-Wan. Clear your mind must be if you are to discover the real villains behind this plot."


"Difficult to see. Always in motion is the future."

Too Ungrateful

Kindred,


Who taught you to hate,

Instead of appreciate?  


Did Jesus?


Who taught you to abuse,

Instead of care? 


Did Jesus? 


What is this nonsense about ridding yourself of Einsteins and teachers because too fat?


Why not rid yourselves of all intellect?  


Why not devolve into the nonsense of lies and misconduct in order to practice grandiose narcissism?  


Then your kids can end up with them in unholy nonsense of continuous abuses for no reason, but the notorious damnation of sins and grandiose lies. 


Since when did character, merit and competence not matter?  


When you nit pick at every little superficial thing and down play every significant matter, thinking you know better and are better….


How are you better?  


What character attributes do you have?  


What merit based accomplishments or skills do you have? 


What in your track record demonstrated your competence in any field?  


And how are your character attributes, merits and competencies better than Einstein or the teacher?  





  🤔 There is a fundamental reason why things work. Every situation is governed by the principles of cause and effect, shaped by the natural...
