[W]hat is real and what is imaginary when, in a spiritual sense, all existing things are imaginary? Mark tells the parable of the fig tree, which – having been cursed – was found withered to its roots. Calling attention to this fact, awakened imagination said: “Have faith in God. Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart that what he has said will come to pass, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, whatever you desire, when you pray believe you have received it and you will.” Mark 11. Here is an imaginary act which has no support in fact. The tree was not withered at the time it was cursed, but when they returned the next day the imaginal act had been executed. So you see: this law is not limited to being constructive only. It can be used for good, bad, or indifferent purposes; for there are no limitations placed on the possibilities of prayer. Now when you pray you must immerse yourself in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, for the word “pray” means, “Motion towards; accession to; at or in the vicinity of.” Point yourself towards the wish fulfilled and accept that invisible state as reality. Then go your way knowing the desire is now yours. You did it and you will not be surprised when it comes to pass. When you first practice this technique you will be surprised when it happens; but when you learn how to completely accept the state assumed, you will know you do not have to do a thing to make it come to pass, as the assumption contains its own plan of fulfillment. You will know that this world is imaginal and that an assumption – with no external object to support its truth – will harden into fact when its truth is persisted in.

You and God
Isn’t there in your life that one person
Who you just can’t quite
Find your way to
Totally forgive?
You make every effort conceivable
And then BOOM !!
He’s back again!
You’ve tried everything . . .
Well, just stop trying.
That’s right, GIVE UP !!
Let it all go, and realize
It’s you and God, God and you –
That’s all that matters.
Nothing “out there” matters
One iota,
Nothing has the presence or power
To drive a wedge between
You … and God.
Why? – you may ask.
Because You’re ONE.
Jealousy
I HAVE ONLY ONE THING
That anyone could possibly
Be jealous of:
It’s Jesus!
So, in case there’s anyone out there
Feeling a twinge of jealousy –
Boy, have I got good news for you!
He’s all yours, too !!!!!!
U.N. General Assembly prep
This is downright scary!
Sitting in Hammarskjold Park
Minding my own business
As I am wont to do (lol)
When I reached into my bag
To retrieve a container of coffee
No fewer than four
Count them … 4 !!!
Uniformed police officers
With finger on shotgun trigger
Four of them there are
Watching me …. just in case ….!
I wanna take a photo for you
But it might cost me
A night in jail :'(
(Could be fun….!)
Help your healing
HELP YOUR HEALING
Step away from the pain.
You CAN do so.
Head high, shoulders back.
Don’t LOOK for trouble
In your body.
Feel the perfection
Everywhere and rejoice!
Someone loves you
And wants you just as
He created you to be.
Now, don’t go back
To the former pain.
Go forever out, into the light.
… and BE the light for somebody else!

“It was the Cross which put the giant turbines of God’s grace into motion—and it is up to you to “plug into” this amazing power source and use it to light up your life!”
Dr. Marilyn Hickey
See me, see the Father. Those were his words. Okay, so:
Healing the son of his birth nation’s enemy;
Freeing the captive, death row adulterous woman and Sabbath breaking man;
Breaking the Sabbath;
Breaking the Kosher table laws;
Breaking the laws about touching the unclean, after not sacrificing for his sin;
Turning water into wine and being blamed for being a drunk while drinking with sinners at their homes;
Telling off the Religious elite;
Messing up the Temple;
Denying the Temple as being God’s Temple;
Disagreeing with sacrifice;
Upsetting the religious elite and government officials;
Refusing to pledge allegiance to his birth nation and it’s king;
Refusing violence and retaliation;
Doing good, blessing and loving all, to include those who deemed him enemy, tortured and killed him, in doing so refusing a Holy, Religious or Just War;
Being Merciful;
Forgiving;
Dying;
Defeating Death, Hades and the Grave;
Emptying Hades;
Resurrecting.
That’s how Father does life, not like Cain, but more like Abel, with his own change in reaction: forgiveness, not vengeance.

As we recognize that we are truly in Christ and that our old things have all passed away, we will begin to “SEE” the New Heaven & Earth which are already here. First we “SEE” spiritually, and – as soon as we do – the full revelation takes place.
Beloved, the symptoms in your body may be there, but they’re not truth. God’s Word IS TRUTH. And God says, “By Jesus’ stripes, you are healed!” (see 1Pe 2:24)

UNDERSTANDING THE WHOLE BIBLE
Exegesis means approaching the Bible by pulling from what it says. We are trying to learn what it says and what it means, and we are trying to draw something out of the Bible that is actually there. By contrast, eisegesis is when we approach the Bible and insert what we think is there, what we think it means. For example, exegesis of Matthew 24 involves reading the preceding chapters. In these chapters we find Jesus declaring unfolding judgment against Jerusalem. With this backdrop, it is easy to understand what the disciples meant when they asked Him, in Matthew 24, when these things will happen. It is clear they were referencing the judgments Jesus talked about in the preceding chapters. This is what it means to draw meaning out of Scripture based on the actual content and context of the Scripture, not on our preconceived ideas. By contrast, many modern views of Revelation are a good example of eisegesis. For example, when people read about the eagle in Revelation that is flying and declaring woe (see Rev. 8: 13), they assume the eagle must refer to the United States of America, because the eagle is the national symbol. This is eisegesis, because it clearly is not what John meant. The United States did not exist in John’s day, so he could not have been referring to it. The root issue here is how we interpret Scripture.
