My Lords Prayer..

This blog is not to raise comments or discussions regarding beliefs. This is just my outlet for what I hold close and dear to my heart and soul. To say I am religious is nothing more than simply not knowing me. I believe in no religion beyond people can believe as they wish. For me it is not a belief but more of a knowing. I have had moments in my life that I cannot explain. I had an experience one night that was nothing less than shattering. It changed my heart mind and soul forever. There is nothing of this I can share. It was for me and me alone. All I can say is that there is something much greater than ourselves but that we each are a part of. Some call this god. Others call it something else. Does not matter to me. For me I choose to say it as the following (believe or not, accept or not, think me nuts or not...matters nothing to me):

I thank you Father for hearing me, for you are The Lord my God, The Lord That is One, The Holy Spirit of The Father and His Beloved Son. It is through You that I am, all that I am and all that I am not. Without You I am nothing at all. Not even a thought.

Because of dear friends I have found You. It was in finding You that I discovered that I did not need to look far. All I needed was to open myself from within to have found You sitting right there within my own heart, mind, and soul. How stupid I feel of myself to have never really known. How ashamed I am that I could be so blind. How embarrassed I feel that here I am a creation of yours to be so ignorant. Thus I feel I have learned a truth of the nature of what is called sin. For sin is not a crime against You or even others, but simply the ignorance that You are there and acknowledging this truth with the joy that it and You deserve. With this I have learned the greatest of truths. That despite all of this, You still accept me and welcome me just as I am. Into Your open arms and open heart I am welcome at all times. You have taught me that it is not worship that You wish, but togetherness and companionship through this journey we call life. You experience this life with us through us. I am humbled beyond anything I can describe. I so thank You for all that I now know. I thank You for being there.

I have made many mistakes in my life. I am paying the price for bad choices and just plain ignorance. I can blame nobody but myself. I know I must spend my life trying to undo what I have gotten myself and my wife into. The hard nights spent sleepless and the days worrying about the consequences of such bad choices are my just dues for poor judgment, but for all that have happened I know this. I took a chance at something in life. It was a chance worth taking. It did not work well and for that I am destined to suffer through many years of hardship. But to never take a chance at uncertainties in life is to never live. To not try against the odds one never gains. To sit back afraid that to try to do things is to literally slap You in the face for you gave us the will to try things. You gave us the drive to achieve. To not use that which You freely give us is the greatest of sin. So with that I will endure that which I must, but knowing it was worth what was chanced. In the end we all come back home to You. On that day we will celebrate.
For now I only ask you forgive my ignorance in choices. Anything more I leave in Your wise hands. For You are The Lord My God, The Lord That Is One; The Holy Spirit of The Father and His Beloved Son.

Amen

To the one that would say no I ask "have you been to the top of Mt. Everest? if not you believe it there only because others say they have been there." To those who say we must bow on knee and worship I say Stand up and know you do not stand alone. To those that condemn in the name of god know that they too will be with you in his home on that day. This life is not what we think or believe. It is much more and much greater. Religion is not truth. Do not let such lies close you to greater possibilities.

Great Empires Fall

The last of the great empires will fall
Making way for a time of new kingdoms....and new princes.....
And they too shall fall soon enough, for the mother is no longer willing to tolerate such a life
Soon she will end this
And that which has been known for so long will be known no more
As it has been before so shall it be again
Many times man has risen to such heights....and been consumed
Knocked back down to basic hunter gatherers....to rise again
That which he has built has been consumed by nature.....to leave little to no trace
Again he rises and builds.....reaches a pentacle only to fall
To start again
All this has happened before and all this will happen again
It is believed this will go on until man changes
But this is not the case.....
In every cycle there are those that grow and evolve.....they move beyond.....some to other worlds.....some to higher plains of existence
After a point the mess man creates in his rise must be ended and destroyed.....to begin again the cycle that gives rise to those that will grow beyond
This is how it has been in this world for millions of years.....it will continue for millions of years
This world is not what you believe
It is not the higher world
It is but a nursery
A starting point
And it is well run beyond what you can perceive
