Unwarranted AGAPE




We ask for this, for that, for heaven, for earth, for good, for happy things, for our friends, relatives, that they will live happily forever;

For our enemies, that they may die soon, horribly and forever be condemned to Hell.
We ask for the granting of what we want. We beg, impeach, we pursue, we appeal, we implore, we cajoled, we try everything, for the granting of one and a thousand things to make our lives what we feel will be better when these things we asked for are granted.

Have we ever un-prayed answered prayers?
Has anything which we have been granted awhile back seem not so on target now & we would like to have the prayer wished away i.e. UNprayed?

Have we been granted a wish or prayer that we now regret was granted? That we now wished was never prayed for & never got granted or answered?
Retrospectively many have occasions to un-pray. Tho this seemingly would point to the believer's poor foresight, planning or impulsive attitudes in begging Him for assistance, be assured that what was granted in the first place was His will being done.
Rest assured that your prayer was answered NOT because it was good for your selfish needs BUT that it served His purpose.
We often think destiny is our's to determine & when things don’t seem to be going in the right direction we pray it will be set right. When it was, we felt He concurs with our wishes.
Be assured that in the first place HE decided to give what we asked NOT because He concurred with our desires BUT because what we are going to be receiving; even though it seemingly was prayed for by us, was actually His Will.
Now did we not know that when all this started we had through the first Man messed up everything? And was there anyone to pray & beg and beseech and appeal that He sends His son to redeem our lost grace?

NO, nobody even had any inclination to even think that.
NOT Adam, NOT Eve.
NO ONE prayed that we be saved & returned to Grace.


It was just not un-prayed for by any living being.


And though nobody prayed for the mess to be undone for the restoration of our lost salvation, he came, in human form, in order we not go 'mad' to see Him coming as He really is .... Almighty God Himself!
Thus without need of our praying, or begging, or appealing, or beseeching, to regain our lost inheritance, by His sacrificing of Himself, by His consenting to debase His Sovereignty, we received our Salvation.


Therefore be assured that it is no coincidence that what you are about to pray for, if granted, will never be in need of being un-prayed for.

His plan for us is we just be worshipful, faithful & true - to all things - all thoughts - all desires - that is of Him & would be as He would wished for.


Do you busy yourself attempting, with all the prayer requests that makes you into a "prayer warrior", to "intercede" for all those people who meant plenty to you (yourself included) that they lived happily (or in the case of your enemies, die horribly) ever after?

Attempting through your "intercession" to change situations, to bend things your way?
As if there was any authority apportioned to you as if you in all your presumed religious arrogance had a special connect to Him.

Do not delude yourself
as the worms or the birds or pigs = with them too you rank.

There is no need to do all that, for His Will, will be done whichever ideas you may have or otherwise be entertaining.
Any mess or situation you may have created or prayed for will, because of His Love for you, be set right with no need for you to un-pray what you pleaded for with mistaken intent that had made such Massive Mess.

Just as was your lost Salvation redeemed, without need for you to un-pray those pleas for self indulgences or other similar self centered requests, which caused the Fall, in the first place.


Such is His Love for you.

Hurray I "came out" ..

                 Fárging with my trash can ...



Don't do your trash can in PUBLIC ...

Many don't give a sh•+
see no great deed.
who cares if you came out
from the closet 
with your trash can, indeed?

That you had more resources, 

or less of nothing
plus more of everything.
In truth 
you have less of most good
more of most useless.
& yet 
you thought erroneously 
much more of yourself. 

Not untrue

nor deniable 
that the
 hetero.s
 mono.s
 gyno.s
 andro.s
 bi.s
 ambi.s
 & other ± °*‡° 

has all an equal place in the dark/shade/sun/rain/storm
designed made owned allowed by HIM

who is to deny or allow vain glorious antics -

BUT for GAWD"S sake 

don't fárg

in public

Oh no 

NOT with 
your trash can !





MERRY?



CHRISTMAS ?





 It's getting crowdier 
 as the season grows
 it gets crampier
 by the hour.

While most unbothered
many no fair
Some more fearful 
many over dare.

"Green" grudge "Blue"
what "Maroon" hates "Turquoise" 
"Beige" wishes be hers
 before "Amber" gets it all.

Live celebrate Joy to I to me & to mine  
The rest smells lousy bad
 to be despised
Who is here to care 
or give a Fíck.

Woa yes much crowdier now
as the minutes tick 
Empty fakers speak 
lots loud out there
foul air freeking flow
warming eggs
make credits grow.

Many yet lulled kept fooled 
by what rolls empty laden 
over under 
on & on
from steeples to domes via fanciful tomes.

As glitteringly selling
bright & loud 
thro handouts
packed cloaked zeroéd 
Love, care, charity, aid, 
& every other SH°†.


We dun care 
Nor give a híck
Long as half of what "J" wouldn't swallow 
"X" would eat.

"F" go grab all she wants 
"U" feels her's not enough  
"S" so too
they 3 can both go frúck the bucket with their list. 

We're not shedding  anié hair 

For long as quarter of what "J" wouldn't eat
"X" would swallow ½
The rest we yet will share.

"C" go take all he wants,
Along with mighty "K" 
for theirs that they can't
never bring. 

Not a byté do we care 
Long as tinié bit "J" needn't swallow  
"X" will gladly leave,

WÉ thé RÉS†  

would sharé.

A Futile Farce ..


REAL ISSUES
Fictional Responses

1 One who has 5 meals a day:
Overjoyed, Happy, Elated, & Satisfied. I will not change places with anyone. I have hardly many other needs.


2 One who has 4 meals a day:
Happy, Satisfied. Other than changing places with number 1 I have no need for much. God? Later ok?


3 One who has 3 meals a day:
Happy but not really Satisfied, there are many who have more meals than me, how can I be Elated, Overjoyed? But never mind as I still have enough to eat and if I 'kill' myself working harder the extra meals that 1 & 2 get, will come my way, when my efforts increase my productivity, when my income improves, when times get better. When, when, when,
WHEN?


4 One who has 2 meals a day:
Overjoyed? Happy? Elated, Satisfied? What are you talking about? In my condition, eating ONLY 2 meals a day, can anybody be anything but how I am? Sorry, man, I don’t have time to chatter with you as there is plenty to be done. Pray? Oh please, my friend you do that for me ok?


5 One who has NO meals any day:
I will pray for deliverance from this situation, for the charity and generosity of kind hearted God fearing people. Even if I cannot speak God will answer my prayers.


Provisional Moral : The increase in level of dependence/faith/believe in the Divine is directly proportional to the difficulties encountered in life; inversely proportional to the fullness of the stomach. "comfort level"

*   CHURCH 'believing' population (not to be confused with belief in the non-religious Supernatural Divine) increases in places where life is tough & scarcity is rampant.

** Church attendance is notably better when food is served.

Thus A WELL FED PERSON WHOSE MOST OTHER SENSUAL NEEDS ARE SATISFACTORILY FULFILLED, WOULD FIND LESS RELEVANCE FOR SEEKING THE DIVINE via CHURCH i.e. Organized Religion..
















Ambition











I pray to see Him,


He revealed my foolishness.






I pray for wisdom,


He gave me a life of bruising challenges and obstacles.






I pray to fully know and understand Him,


He showed my limited mind.






I pray for riches,


He showed me moth-eaten treasures and rusted gold.






I pray for power, and for glory,


He showed me tombs of decayed kings.






I pray for fame,


He showed me dust, from which I came.






I pray to feel no pain,


He healed my wounds.






I pray to never die,


He promised death is not the end.






I pray my suffering ends,


He reveals His unceasing LOVE..






He answers all prayers






In His time.








His way.

Trouble is -

      
       Trouble is we always figured we were smart. 
Whoever gave us that idea? 
I don’t know.
All our troubles come from that thought - fatal, flawed .
 


Trouble is we try to be clever.
More than we actually are.
Cos in the first place,

We thought we were smart.
No?


Trouble is we try to figure out stuff.

Stuff we thought were smart to figure out. 
When we actually are poorly brain'd to even try.
But we thought we were smart.
No?

 

And we look in the wrong places.                               
In the nitty and the gritty, and more so the petty.
The things that mean a lot, we see not.
The things that mean naught, loom huge, trendy, glamorous, clever and large.


Trouble is we scant feel the warmth of the sun, 

Nor bother the coolness of the evening breeze.
The immaculate glows of fabulous sunsets, displayed as masterpieces in the horizon, we pay little heed.
Lost in our haste to catch up,

To appear smart.


We notice not the fragrance of wild roses.
Nor regard the soft melting of the snow flakes.
Hear not the gurgling, bubbling sea-bound brook.

The nourishing splattering rain nurturing sun-drenched fields.
The cheerful chirps of the tiny pecking birds, escape us.

 

Trouble is we are deaf to the laughter of joyful children, 
To the love of parents for their sons.
And sons for parents.
We spare no thought for the gentleness, concern and care, of aged in-firmed grannies, for the robust yet fragile toddling little ones.


Trouble is we seek for what we think are smart to gain - Wealth, Fame, Power, Greatness and Glory.

And all that we think would make us appear smart to obtain.
 

Trouble is we even try to figure out God, then conclude there is none.
OMG!

What gave us that nerve to even think we could ever try, to know or reach or at all understand HIM.


But we thought we were smart. That fatally flawed thought. 

Interfering with the true purpose we are here for:
  
To appreciate His GREATNESS 
  be embraced in His LOVE. 
  to make this experience 
- Life -
meaningful, rewarding, fulfilling, & glorious.


     May
you be not so troubled

R.I.P




R.I.P.


                  Would imply Living had been: 



BURDENSOME 


LABORIOUS 


TIRESOME 


JOB  

DRUDGERY 

FOS

Full Of SH*†

 Serving only to 

TIRE 
WEAR ONE OUT? 
                                                                                     
if
                                                                                                                 
Eternal Salvation & Rewards

is 

FULL & OVERFLOWING

YET consists of 

"RESTing"


When all burdens have been lifted 




all sorrows consoled 


&


all pains relieved.


How then does anyone need 

'REST'

even if 

 IN PEACE ?


When all's done here on this earthly Abode,


TOTALLY LIBERATED


from all bounds - restrictions - every other shackles of 'LIFE'
  one would 
  DEFINITELY NOT 
want

REST


Would one not wish then to:

  SOAR like eagles!

 To 

 FREELY
 TRULY
 FLY

  LIBERATED 

?

There is no need ....

  

 If one seeks for TRUTH i.e. the ABSOLUTE, the  COMPLETE,  PERFECT aka GOD in stuff on our imperfect world; no amount of proofs, relics even if positively carbon dated to the exact second of its historical occurrence, even if it were the very nails that pierced Jesus C on the cross or the burial places of the so called greats of God's spokesmen together with their remains, corrupt/rotten/decayed by time or not - ALL WE HAVE ON OUR HANDS in a manner of speech is a load of man made, man derived, man confirmed evidence of a still unproven, un-evidenced & never ever will be evidenced, GOD!
    It will forever be that way in our life, since otherwise HE will not be GOD.
the ABSOLUTE
the COMPLETE 
the ONE.
    Our cerebral capacity even if we are able to enhance it till Quantum computing capabilities; with earth depleting intakes of resources when it's fired up, would never meet the capacity required to come near 
receiving HIM in terms of embracing HIM in HIS ENTIRETY!
If you are a little computer savvy, you might appreciate the significance of our human inability to ever contain or fill ourselves with HIM, even a fraction of HIM!
When the pop up tells the computer nerdie guy trying to transfer or download data "the process cannot be completed as there is insufficient space on the device" 
 Having said that, humbly one should realize the role each of us called 'agents or instruments' of the ONE, is as they say similar to the bodily parts.  Each endowed with their individual functional gifts - some do better in certain tasks so blessed are they with that particular talents … 
  Just try not be the BOSS as that is a truly funny joke with which i am sure you are familiar -
the Boss being the 'Asshole'  
  If you feel you need confirmation of HIM I am saying your quest is not going to be ending here, as far as success in finding GOD is concerned.
 And that need for confirmation, isn't necessarily for one to realize there truly is a universal god - the ONE.
Perhaps one has to as you say, break free from RELIGIONS' glorified bondage of a sectarian denomination, &  exclusive GOD, based on nothing more but a human ego tripping misquoted misapplication of  John: 14:6
The years have been more than kind to you, HE your god has been more than fair, to you as well as to the ones who meant more to you than anything or anyone else. 
There should be no need to exercise the invocation of the human guilt psychology or the gratitude psychology to feel indebted to HIM : 
That particular verse "…that God so loved the world that HE sacrificed HIS only begotten SON to die for us that we may have life eternal… " is just another unnecessary, misunderstood script by some 'misguided' divinely uninspired, scriptural author of dubious credentials.
  ..THAT should be viewed in it's true intent, which is a load of unnecessary guilt -evoking gratitude-begging device to invite worship & honor for GOD?
If one recognizes GOD and truly understands the concept, there is no such need for guilt tripping or gratitude inspiring rhetorics to justify  one's  homage or devotion or bond to HIM!
 Man who realize God, should love God for what ever heck he has given us…PERIOD !
  Which is a chance for a most WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE whether it be through happy through thick through hell through hate through sickness through cancers through long suffering through incarceration through all the spectra of human highs, lows, savory ,bland & all else in between - all these that are on this imperfect earth!
 HE gave all living creatures that great chance for a truly marvelous experience!
Though on an IMPERFECT WORLD it is so awesomely beautiful  !   

  Just try envision the PERFECTion when we truly are with HIM wherever HE is!
