Thank you for the many tokens of encouragement that you are giving me!

What a thoughtful son you are! A quarter here and a dime there, really go straight into my encouragement quotient. Maybe I'll get all of the dishes finished today? You are a great encourager, my dear.

What are the enemies frozen into? Thoughts on Man Of Steel {

The conflict between the tools that we use to pass the faith onto our children and the faith that we pass on to our children is sometimes a bitter one. We hold onto the tools and sometimes not onto the Lord of the tools. Are we battling for the attachment to the tools of our faith or the God of our faith? sometimes, God Himself has to chisel us out of our own devices. we are so immersed in our traditions and they will not save us. If Judaism didn’t save the inheritors then certainly our pagan tools will not save us. How long, Lord will you suffer their perspectives of supremacy over one another? God Himself is separating between our preservation of our culture or our relationship with God.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem, If you cannot pray thusly for their salvation, Who were, as it were, the legitimate children of God, your faith is in vain. Whose neck is suffering because your foot is attached to it? That kind of faith and domination will not save.

Not supremacy or subjugation, but close attachment to one another. We must let go of our exalting ourselves and our deprecation and see the image of God in each other. Learning to love one another and pray diligently for the means of propagation of the faith that each tradition has blessed us with is the serious and earnest fight for our generation.

"Please, Lord, give us our time and our future for Jesus!" Amen.
