[Monday] February 8:

Little fuzzy pellets coming down, tiny ones, that sound almost like rain when they hit. Felty little bits. Sticking. I'm bored out of my skull. So playing a game. So embarrassing. Have other things to do, I just remembered.

buffycross.png Febr. 9:  Those little fuzzy pellets stuck well, and made the city schools close, so I did not do my usual Tues. a.m. activity, which is Bible Study and coffee & doughnuts at the Meth. Ch. outreach bldg. (They also have a free clothes closet on Tues. a.m., with books and home goods. I've gotten a fair amount of good stuff there). I had to see a friend, and went to her apt. a while & watched tv, after having coffee and one doughnut when the building did open for a half hour because some volunteers had to be there to accept the usual doughnut donation from the local bakery.

Then here to the library to catch up on whatever, but I had to go to Youtube, since I made a comment at Youtube on a video by The Linkowski family, where a former Roman Catholic woman talks about a priests comments at a Catholic funeral, and her conversation with him. A pro-RCC Youtuber commented on her video, and I made a comment on her video. So I started typing in my answer, while making notes in my entry here (for my own benefit). I somehow made a wrong move on the keyboard I guess, and that made Youtube swallow what I'd typed in. So I had to start all over and try and finish. Not sure it looks like my original answer, hope it's better:

Youtube notes and then the comments/argument, which I have not been able to finish yet...so person's reply has been left unanswered
[ Notes:

American Standard Version:
REV19:1414
And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses.


The Living Bible:
The armies of heaven, dressed in finest linen, white and clean, followed him on white horses.

KJV:
14
And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.


NLT:
14 The armies of heaven, dressed in the finest of pure white linen, followed him on white horses.




2 Cor. 12:21 - I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know--God knows. /end Notes ]

[Wednesday] Eh, I put the argument behind a cut; Bitter cold today.

My eyes watered because of the bitter cold, and my tears froze on the way to the library. Here is my final answer to Ms.CynthiaX, or whatever her name is, at Youtube, behind the cut.

buffy90.pngFebr. 9:  I made a smaller version of the Buffy and cross icon, was thinking of going back to an old forum where they have 90 px icons unless you pay/subscribe. Now I'm wondering why to bother.

The woman started out her reply to my comment by calling me a liar and to read the Bible.

Collapse )I did a bad job of cutting off from this argument, and could have said so much more. The link is here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_N…

Finally I had to compliment the original poster on her video.

Lol, now thatCynthia called me a Bible thumper -- she who threw all kinds of Bible quotes at me before I threw all of them back at her and explained how they did not prove her point, that it's okay to pray to a saint for interecession, and finally I put in a couple of my own in answer. Lol, she wants me to view her video, which "proves it all". "Man up" she said. No thanks, you are nuts.

Tamara Linkowski makes a lot of sense and seems like a real Christian to me. I am listening to her 8-part "Why after reading my Catholic Bible, I had to leave the Catholic Church" series.

[Tuesday] ☆ I went to "Class Meeting", the attendance of which has gone down since it became "Class Meeting" and not Bible Class. I think I bored the leader, it was just the two of us. I didn't want to say what was going on with my soul, so I talked about some stuff that bothered me from work 10 years ago. I don't respect the leader very much, and she's been good to me but she just has weird ideas where you be nice to people but it's not biblical. And she had never read the Bible, and thinks it not important to study it once a week.

Jonas hit DC on anniversary of Roe V. Wade    JD Farag, mideast update for Jan. 31 -- Molech was the god with fire in the belly--statues with a furnace; unwanted babies from sexual immorality were put into the fire.  JD is saying abortion now is pretty much the same thing.  That's just one item from the week's update. Also the leader of Iran (Rouhani) asking the Pope to pray for him!

"The generation that sees the rebirth of a generation will be the generation that sees the coming of the Son of Man" -- I'm wondering if this means simply that we will see more Messianic Jewish presence and more Holy Spirit activity, God pouring out his Spirit on the peoplea and uniting them? Raising more and more Spirit-filled Christians?


The Hebrew Term 'aliyah'

Dear Rabbi,

I have always understood that the word aliyah refers to being called up to the Torah reading at the synagogue. But yesterday, a friend told me that he is making aliyah. He explained that “making aliyah” meant moving to Israel.

Could you enlighten me on what the true meaning of the word is?

Answer:

The Hebrew word aliyah translates as “elevation” or “going up.” It is, in fact, used both for being called up to the Torah reading and for moving to the Land of Israel.

[Thursday] ☆ I sometimes wonder about earbuds and the brain. Most of the sound goes into one ear, I can barely hear any at all in the other ear. I know this is because one is bass, one treble, or that is what I guess. But with the brain being divided, does the info going in your left ear only register in portions of the brain on the right?

Uhkay. Well, I sent a friend notice to my friend Carol on FB, she wants to know how to add smileys to a comment. I guess she can't see the very faint smiley face and add a pic camera icons on the little window. No lack of brains, just she's 70 or so. So I hope the screenprint I made with a circle and text on it is okay. I can already see I should have made it different. Arr.

I took my glasses off last night at church and  it was pretty bad--I could not even see dark spots where the pastor's eyes were. Just pink blur. the day before I had like 3 or 4 doughnuts for breakfast, then 3 slightly less sugary snacks for dinner. No that is not a normal day's diet, but in the past 2 years or less, I've gained about 60 pounds. I am afraid this is partly diabetic tendency, and I do relate this to the eyesight loss. It is only since going to this church that my MIND has been clearing up. I have been perfectly aware of my physical problems, it's just that I didn't have the money, or the sanity to get money to eat healthy. I couldn't even think about getting food stamps, my mind just wouldn't go there whenI found out you could only get them for 3 months till you have to start looking for a job and I needed a heck of a lot longer than 3 months to pull myself together enough to be able to handle another job.

So I couldn't afford decent food, or thought I couldn't (after a while, my dad gave me the option to cash in my life insurance, which I did not opt for, I was just paranoid and really did not believe he meant well, was thinking this was some kind of trap. But I wasn't consciously thinking it, but I think that's what held me back. He really was not an honest man. But in the mean time my health suffered.

My head is full of moldy bits.

[Monday] I am listening to David Wesley, Where Oceans Fail.  I went and sat at UDF last week after starting to write about that dream. (lol got a welcome from The Superior Word on Youtube). Why am I wasting time at this YPP?

The Law is fulfilled in Christ.Watching this week's Superior Word Prophecy Update.Sigh, this keyboard barely works.

[I went to Lifetree after vineyard supper and food pantry. Wasn't planning on Lifetree but got really ticked after realizing my wallet is misplaced.] YPP and listening to Jd Farag prophecy update, Jan 24.

[Tuesday] Sunni believes the Mahdi will come before the Apocalypse--Iran. The Shia Islamic State wants to establish the Caliphate now. - JD Farag

I woke up at 4 or so this a.m. & had a can of mini ravioli. It's too salty, %29 percent of the sodium RDA. I have a hard time with portion control, but it's better than I've been doing with all the free bread I've been eating. I gained I think 70 pounds last year or so. And my hormones are slowing down and they say it's more difficult that way, when you get older. I feel better since I've been avoiding sweets. But Sun. I just knocked myself out with eating them. I don't know  what the problem is, probably some buried trauma.

Wed. last week it snowed, froze, but Sun. it got warm. Got 3 bugbites, dangit.

[Wednesday] I realized on Mon. night that I lost my wallet, or misplaced it. It could be in Pastor Vivian's car, in the wheel well. ( just messing around with stuff). Sr. Michelle & I talked about a dream I had in 2014 or 15, that told me to accept no 'invitations especially for me". Decided it was probably a bunch of hooey. That dream robbed me. I have been fasting for two days a week, & was fasting maybe for the afternoon & evening. Someone just said that Rob Blazer just killed himself. I could have heard wrong.

I was such a loser this week, Mon. night saying I wanted to die. The week before JJ & I went by J's mom's house and they had left the van door open. I went up on the porch and  knocked on the door, told them, he acted a bit disgusted and went & closed it. I would have just done it myself but thought maybe there was a  reason for it.



Too bad you can't make tables, I could type around that. Kush & Kazz subbed me again.

[Monday] ☆ Pastor Vivian told me I have to find my wallet today. I really have not gotten down and prayed like I do. Yet I have. I think it is just guilt. Over serious things, but things I don't remember. And I need to find closure, closure for things I know happened, or that I know I did.  The lunch was today and I thought of calling Jojo yesterday to tell her, but called when she was still out.

It was free Lunch day @ the church, so I went and helped Gail cook. There wasn't much for Sr. Carol to do by the time she got there, and less for Pastor Vivian which is good. Only 4 people came, 3 regulars and a new lady. New lady was pretty nice.

I found out someone I talk to once in a while is someone I have met before, when she went to Al-anon. Like once, but she is the sister of someone I know from there and from a 9 month period of going to a certain church in about 2009. She said that that certain church that I went to for a short time, she for a long, was 10 yrs ago a different church. It was like the church we both go to now. It had the Spirit, and people worshipped in the Spirit at every service (there were 3 on weekends). While I was going there, the last of the Spirit worship, was one hour per month, and the head pastor at the time made sure that went away, told the two leaders of this one hour "encounter"  to leave, and that was it. Our own pastor happened to mention this week that there are churches who pop up from time to time who are just amazing, they are like that, this great new thing. But after a few years, they just aren't anymore. Our church has close to a 50-year history, was more religious in the beginning, but had the Holy Spirit all those decades, I believe. Every service and prayer service. [Edit, 9.15.16: It was Erinn, not Jamie, not the sister of the person I knew in Al-Anon].
