Greetings Shimmer ….. The rate of conversion is miniscuel in comparison with the growth of militant Islam …. Do not loose sight of prophesy when we are told that Jerusalem shall be a bitter cup to the world and the decendants of Ishmael will be at our throats….God promised Abraham that his seed would be numbered as the grains of sand in the sea…..Ishmael was Abrahams son with the concubine Hagar…. Islam will be part of Gods judgement on the world….IMHO

Thank you Theodore. Your opinion is always appreciated. I'v kind of abandoned the thread for now. I'm feeling peacefully quiet.
Strange for me…

Take care Theodore.

Arcturus seems so big compared to the sun. But check out Antares compared to Arcturus. Stars like Antares makes Arcturus seem like a dwarf.

ON EAGLE WINGS

~ By Maria Egilsson ~
Manitoba

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint. (Isaiah 40:31 – KJV)

As you wait upon the shore
How your heart does long to soar
With eagle’s wings you want to fly
From the pain that makes you cry

Tired and weary is your soul
And you pray to be made whole
So you wait upon the Lord
Daily reading of His word

In His time His breath will blow
The wind beneath your feet will grow
He will teach you how to fly
As an eagle soaring high

Above the clouds you will view
All that God has walked you through
Flying close onto the Sun
You will see what He has done

Pressing on in fearsome flight
Reaching for His guiding light
Grace and beauty cover you
Others learn to follow you

Soaring through the darkened sky
You will see with eagle eye
He will give you gift of sight
To see the one who stalks at night

For now you sit here in this place
As He covers you with grace
He sees your grief and knows your pain
For such a time is why He came

So rest in Him a work He’ll do
Gifts of grace He'll give you
For the tasks He’s called you to.

by Cahil Gibran

And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said, “Speak to us of Children.”
And he said:

Your children are not your children.

They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.

They come through you but not from you,

And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts.

For they have their own thoughts.

You may house their bodies but not their souls,

For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.

For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.

The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.

Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;

For even as he loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

[terraricca]

Cahil Gibran

Then said a teacher, “Speak to us of Teaching.”

And he said:

No man can reveal to you aught but that which already lies half asleep in the dawning of our knowledge.

The teacher who walks in the shadow of the temple, among his followers, gives not of his wisdom but rather of his faith and his lovingness.

If he is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind.

The astronomer may speak to you of his understanding of space, but he cannot give you his understanding.

The musician may sing to you of the rhythm which is in all space, but he cannot give you the ear which arrests the rhythm nor the voice that echoes it.

And he who is versed in the science of numbers can tell of the regions of weight and measure, but he cannot conduct you thither.

For the vision of one man lends not its wings to another man.

And even as each one of you stands alone in God's knowledge, so must each one of you be alone in his knowledge of God and in his understanding of the earth.

I would like this to be a place where we can put anything we want, without worrying about discussion or debate. If it's quoted, can you put the source, author or link. Please, no comments, discussion or debate. Read or add only… and no flooding. Mike or t8, can you please delete the earlier thread I made (the one before this?) I worded it wrong… thank you.

Hi shimmer.
