"The escalating decline in morality, being a terminal cancer that has spread
across the lands. And it can be well concluded the probability that the end was known
from the beginning from the inspired wisdom put forth 'within' the divine words of
warnings
that have and continue to be greatly ignored. The spirit of God's profound wisdom being

replaced of all places...within the Christian arena." The loss of spiritual equilibrium, being evident
with the disturbing events taking place!


'And the cure for a sick society has been polluted and abandoned by and through the
works of a sinister adversary that know prevails...predominantly.'


'And as a witness now of eight decades, plus...I can only be thankful for the time that was.
I am thankful and grateful...(even with all the turbulence in my life)...that at my worse time...
God's spirit came upon my life and..."I saw the Light"......"Amen"
My spiritual awakening has opened a new door to a new life...here in the now.'
"Praise God"

"I came to share only that of which I have personally experienced since my
spiritual awakening journey began, now of over two decades ago. And striving each
day to maintain a spiritual awareness of reality, and this being not compatible with allowing
worldly foolishness to prevail over my spiritual awareness...believe it!


'Know this and know it well...God being a spiritual being and independent from materialistic things!
And until this realization of truth becomes firmly acknowledged and handled accordingly, foolishness
and unabated
falseness, deception, confusion and discord shall continue. Sadly it will continue since obviously,
the master of the world being a sinister adversary at this time...here in the now!


'And I Am not obligated to prove whatsoever that I Am only here in the now...to share of spiritual revelations that
have come to be of great significance in my life. My life rest on striving to act upon the spiritually inspired
teachings of Jesus Christ pertaining to applying the principles of life, in my own life... and the greatest principle being "LOVE"

"Make no mistake, I thank God each day for my spiritual awakening, and knowing
to continue striving for spiritual discipline in all my coming and going. And in doing so I

am not influenced by the chaotic "proclaimed Christian" foolishness that has become disturbingly prevalent
across social media outlets...here there and many places."


'I have learned my spiritual wellness depends on knowing to acknowledge and accepting the truth
that God being of a spiritual realm, so must be my awareness and attitude to the best of my ability.
Being outside of God's spiritual realm, is simply being away from God...and the adversary shall certainly
prevail with those that remain outside of God's spiritual realm.'

"My personal life experience is mine and mine alone, and I can only share just that.
There are things that are just not meant to understand, and I leave it at that.
A time of preparation surely was at hand for several years. God's spirit being close by, I now know to have been."


'After my spiritual awakening happening, fourteen years slipped by before my first social media
interaction of sharing how my life had been transformed since my commitment of putting my life in God's care. (Amen)
at first posted on a
prayer website, but left for personal reasons. A time lapsed before coming upon this site, 2019 I believe to be first post.'


'Preparation I know to be a time of understanding and acknowledging that God is a divine spirit of great love and wisdom,
and striving to tune into just that, and to focus on the inspired teachings of Jesus Christ surrounding the principles
of life, being an essential time of preparation and revelations outside of worldlines. This being the key that allows
God's spirit to come alive through sharing from a spiritual heart. Being in and with God's relationship is a spiritual
gladness to behold...believe it!'

"I assure you this spiritual journey has opened the door to being fully aware
that God's spirit of inspired wisdom holds great revelations of profound significance,
as long as I get out of my way, and strive to have remembrance of how I should conduct my life.

Intrusion of worldly foolishness will surely eliminate the hope of spiritual growth...believe it."

'Worldly intrusion being a grave danger to be involved with, and in allowing this, God's wisdom
most likely becomes sadly abandoned...Christian responsibility appears not to be fully understood.'


'Spiritually grounded has to be acquired. Worldly intrusion happens when spiritual necessity becomes ignored
and replaced with worldly desires.'

with God's spirit, and this being greatly influenced through my quiet times of prayer and contemplation.

And I have learned nowhere being suitable for this spiritual communication except within myself...believe it."

realize that my new life has brought about a different me, and I like the new me
compared to the old me...believe it. "Amen"


'No matter the life disturbances, which are inevitable, I know my spiritual awareness

I have learned God's power/influence becomes available so long as I am honestly spiritually focused,
focused on spiritual reality. And this I know is an essential key to the manifestation of God's wisdom in my life.'

"I firmly believe selfishness to be the greatest hindrance in any hope of a acquiring a sound
spiritual connection with God. Looking back on my past, selfishness was an unforeseen act of my conduct that
caused many of my problems. Thank God I have learned the importance of striving to do away with
selfishness, and in doing so I can show more love, compassion and a closer relationship with those around me.
And also allows a profound soundness in my spiritual growth...believe it."


'Selfishness is a malignant ailment that can grow into a great burden of disconnection from achieving the
fruits of God's spirit and also most likely bring cause of the inability to honestly share God's love.
When selfishness is eliminated, spiritual discipline and self control shall be much easier to achieve...believe it.'

"I believe there to be different levels of fear or being afraid, and I have known a real
fear once, which somewhere in my threads it was posted. To elaborate is needless, as it has
to be lived."


"As an ironworker working in high places, I assure you there were times of considerable concern,
but not afraid enough to give it up as I enjoyed the job. Here, respect, trust and knowing your limits being
an important mind set, as taking unnecessary risks were sure to bring about potential harm.

Avoiding these required focus and confidence in what I could or couldn't do safely.'

'I have learned on this spiritual journey that my life has come to accept things I can't change, and
not to allow troublesome circumstances to be self inflicted. Thank God I have learned by
acting upon God's wisdom, there being less of a chance to actually be in fear, as I strive to
focus on God's love to see me through any and all things that may arise.'

As some here may know, spring in Texas arrives about a month before the rest of the states.

That being said, I was in my in my back yard fighting a losing battle against this years crop of weeds.

While taking a break I began to hear the pleasant sound of a nearby Mockingbird. I sat listening and counted over 20 separate voiced sounds. What a blessing we have been given in the creation of the Mockingbird!

"This I have learned to be far more challenging than would appear. The idea of working
for and/or with God absolutely requires an acute sense of spiritual awareness, and even then
I must earnestly strive to maintain discipline and self control to the best of my ability.
And any notion of incorporating worldly things with spiritual reality will surely hinder the chance
of God's spirit of wisdom to be useful, to myself or anyone."


'This being precisely the reasoning to be ever cautious in any action of attempting to explain
the Divine words, as each personality shall choose their own path. I firmly stand by my spiritual
path and for good reason, witnessing the delusional worldly 'thinking' of many leads to a nothingness.

'I have abandoned the reasoning of why proclaimed Christians insist on attempting to explain things
that simply are beyond human understanding. And surely lost souls become more bewildered than perhaps
even those attempting to explain things that only bring cause of division and discord.'

"Make no mistake, my spiritual journey, that of being from an extraordinary event that began over
two decades ago and continues to be. "Amen"


'I assure you, I am just me and make no claim of being special in any way...it is God's spirit that of which
being a profound special influence in my life, and that of which helps to be a guidance in my life, and to share,
always with hope that lost souls may come to know of and to experience that in accepting Christ in one's life,
one must not only have a willingness to change...one must also change and be absolutely willing to do so...it works no other way!


'And I say this know, many self proclaimed Christians are far away from spiritual reality and are on a dark
worldly path that promotes nothing that of being God's will to be done...here in the now. And the "study of and/or about God"...
is just that...to study without acting upon and practicing the intended lessons and instructions...shall be

considered an academic venture without actually acquiring and/or accepting the necessary spiritual soul food
so needed in the hope of the greatly needed spiritual preparation of eternity with God's spirit...to be.'

"As stated before, my spiritual growth and well being becomes enhanced with
sharing of how my life has improved since the decision to earnestly strive to practice
God's inspired wisdom in my life. And this spiritual fellowship goes out to all."


'I must admit, I am thankful for my spiritual awakening and awareness, since there appears
to be a great lack of actual spiritual fellowship of the coming together of testimonies of how God
has helped change lives.'


'I believe lost souls are left in the dark when there being no account of people's relationship
with God's spirit...other than copy and paste untold scripture with worldly follow up of
worldly opinions.
Surely lost souls find somewhat of no connection with the academic nature presented, and the nature

of the Holy Spirit as a guidance and growing closer to the nature of God's spirit.'

"I am thankful I have come to accept and to acknowledge that the nature of God
being that of a spiritual nature, and by this acceptance I am far more inclined to
adjust my life accordingly, which has certainly allowed a better quality of living my
life here in the now, and not to allow
worldliness to disrupt my commitment of striving to
practice spiritual discipline. Knowing that without my spiritual enlightenment, worldliness
will certainly have a way of a disconnect away from God's spirit."

self induced deception through the hindrance of catering to worldliness.'

"This I have come to learn to be of significant importance in my spiritual journey,
and perseverance being essential in striving to practice spiritual discipline in this restless
and materialistic world."


'I have come to know this, my spiritual thoughts often kick in when confronted with different
worldly situations, meaning remembrance of God's wisdom helps me to to do or say things better in

spiritual accordance than any worldly notions or actions I would otherwise put forth. And over
time this seems to come about more from habit of striving to practice my spiritual discipline.

I assure you this has to be lived and there being no adequate words to explain this spiritual
manifestation that comes about, but it has greatly improved my interactions with and of people, places and things
that may arise when least expected...believe it. I am thankful for this spiritual backup in times needed. ('Amen')


'I believe without spiritual practice and discipline, many there are that shall remain far from God's spirit,
and shall continue outside of His fold...caught up in worldliness leaves little hope of any spiritual enlightenment.'

my actions and personality have undergone a big change from my old self, and I can only hope

and plenty of that being witnessed.'

awareness is definitely a slow gradual learning, and most certainly of great importance in my life."
