I think that verse is um, saying, its all there but we are missing the point or our heart is too hard. Hm, thinking time. God be with us.

With eyes and hear with ears, and should understand with heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. " Matthew 13:15

hearts areharden to it. How did Jesus put it?

we see it ever since . Do we believe the Word or do we believe in ourselves, the latter it seems. You are no different Dan. We know what it says and yet our

Seriously though, Dan, this has been a problem since the beginning, Satan did that to Eve, the priesthood upto Pharisees, Paul and Peter write of it too and

You with me Dan ?! :) :p

The Word of Truth is not a rubberband, not of some substance and can be twisted into whatever shape we want.Hm, if I ever write this book, that'll be a quote :D

I'm tryin to do this God, but I keep messing up. - Psalm 119:30

I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I have set my heart on your laws.- please give wisdom.

How I long for her always. What do I do God? You say nothing is impossible for You. Please make it possible?

Perfect isn't you, it has to be Jesus. You mess up too much, but have to fight to die yourself and let the power that is of God release.

How many preachers and church people have been in the papers for stealing, killing, adultery or such? How many "good" people? Dan, never will you be good. Never

We can only see the outside of a person, knowing the heart, we don't know.

EVER have enough mercy or love or be too humble and lowly. No righteousness is our own, only that which God gives of HIS OWN.

Well and finished wrong, King Saul, King Solomon,we know those in our short lifetimes as such, beware ourselves before we condemn others. Hence why we can't

The pharisees way? Matthew 23:13-30? As Christians or "Christians" that is our fear and we have to be careful of that, for history tells of so many who started

This is contradictory to us, just like in the beginning, when we decide we make the rules ( when we can only decide to do what is told or not) it goes downhill.

What age, race, gender or whatever. Christ is head and in the head is the brain, the controlling factor; the one who makes the rules and decides what is what.

Interesting that is nothing of how we do this, it is based not on us, but on what He already did/does. No one person is head of Christians, no person, no matter

power and authority.

Readiness

So, the following are some notes form Sunday night  lesson/study not my own

“Title”Are you ready?

Ready means/=  are you able, prepared to do?

We ought to be ready.

Like the parable of the wedding feast, are we ready for the groom? Mt22:4-8 wedding feast.
Titus 3:1 (1 Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good,) we have to be a people ready for every good work

-Be ready to give an answer - 1 Peter 3:15 (1 Peter 3:15
But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,) : some things to be ready on  :
Why you believe what u believe.....
- On Worship- accapella, communion, denomination vs non-denomination (we try and do what NT Testament church )
-the Church
-To preach the gospel - Rom. 1:15 (15 That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome.) Paul was ready
-Gal. 2:20 - The reason for readiness –I’m crucified with Christ
-To die- James 4:14 (14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.)  - shortness of life Psalms 90, Hebrews 9:27  (27 Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 2) - once to die
" Everyday we live is borrowed time " (?)
- For the judgment Isaiah 59:1 ( 1 Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save,
   nor his ear too dull to hear. ) -  God can save us
Rom. 1:18 (18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness,)
2 Cor. 5:10 (10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.)  - we all have to answer for our good and bad
Luke 19:10 -  (10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”) Jesus came to seek and save the lost (John 3:17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.)

We want mercy not justice for ourselves; justice would be hell not Heaven.

 So, Are you ready? 

So the brother wrote this, hope it helps, I have alot to think about now. again.

Why?

My God, why why is this like this? I wake and I almost kill myself! It was a living nightmare! Oh God! What hit me like this?! All of it! the failings, the hurt, the hurting her, the regret, the misunderstanding, I LOVE HER ! God what can I do?! I don't eat, I can't sleep. I feel like it's all dying! I wanna try and do something, but what? I'm tryin to do what you say, still working on trying to figure out how to be temperate, how to not really be um, silent, but not speak out of um, what is it.... um not just say what's on my mind right away, slow to speak, quicker to listen and um, dang it, how to evaluate whether what I'm about ot say is cause of what I want or what is right. Oh God, Always on my mid she is, if she only knew. God I have been trying, but I can't I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I'm working at going to worship, tryng to get mind right, tryin to work harder at stuff, I don't really like video games, haha, can't believe it, but almost a year not playing World of Warcraft at all. I been tryin to keep up writing, try to encourage people. Think Riv is starting to be affected by hanging around with me, he seems alot more calm and I noticed that he has shown more care. Now to try and get him to church; hm, just gotta keep asking him to go. Haha, I think Z is open to talking more Bible, hm, trying to get in there with scripture and encourage him in stuff, I think he has open mind, maybe You can use me to get his whole family.

Oh God! What am I supposed to be doing?! I want to make things right! I'm tryin to stand up and I can't stay upright , You know? God, she is always in my heart and mind and i always want to speak to her and encourage her, but I don't know whatI'm supposed to do. I have to believe You have some plan. The problem is am I willing to allow You to do it, cause i keep just messing up!
Drinking is stupid, video games are ok, but kinda boring, too many distractions! I'm so scatter brained.

I'm , I've been soooo dead, depressed, and more. I have no real inclination to I don't know. Everyday I wake, I wonder what or when it is gonna hit me and mess me up more, the reminders, the thoughts. God, I can't keep this up! Something has to happen, thought if I did a project it would help but no, it doesn't as much.
These conflicting thoughts, days of saddness, depression. I'm a wreck God, it feels so alone.
God, what is it?! It hit me hard today, I mean, I wanted to kill myself! I woke, and I mean, yes, I only got what an hr of sleep maybe....but I got up, and Oh my gosh, it was like a barrage! I don't eve know where ot start! I can't even bring myself to start! Dang it and now I cry more. Oh God, what is Your plan? How do things get right, surely this was not the plan, God I'm try and trying! I work hard, I help people, keep tryin to fig new ways to not get mad, to be temperate! I want to hope!
But I'm so weak! GOD!!!!! What is the point?  What is the plan? Why does it seem like Your Word says one thing, but things go the other way?

You want everything, but it seems like I can't give it all. Are you done with me? Is there any hope to repairing, just give time? Is she ok? My life I would give in a heartbeat for her, if I knew how to turn the world upside down I would for her. Dang it, what am I supposed to do? What are YOu doing God?

What do I have to do ? I'm in a prison in my own head! I don't know what hell is, but this mind of mine, it over whelms me like crazy! People worry about ....well, if I get shot, or jumped, or shot at....
I'm not afraid of physical death, it's one and done, but this internal stuff, it feels like death inside going out. Does that make sense God? This is me casting it to You, I don't know what's in the tank, feels like I'm just running into a brick wall again and again, I'm consistently working at trying to do better, and it seems all for nothing, like arg, i can't explain it. God, truly you know what I beg of You every day.
I don't know God, from my mind to my physical health, it all seems to be going downhill. up and down and when it hits down, well You saw me today, when I woke up on the couch, I don't even know how long I sat there and I just don't know. Please God, dang it, how long God? No other but the WomH.  Please, You know this. Why alone? After this? where is the true righteousness? I cannot claim anything but but my head down in remorse and sorrow, I'm SO SO SOOOOO Sorry for all of it! I'm an idiot and not in a good way it seems.  I want to  work at it! God what do  You want from me?

Oh God, til the day I die, be with her and show the truth. As you say, teach us to forgive and not keep holding onto the past wrongs. Allow love and healing through and through. I know i need it and for those i have hurt, heal them, may they learn to forgive me. and for me, well, Jesus took the sins of the world, I just want to take the pain I gave others, and take it from them , truly I do love her and those I have hurt, I can't seem to make things right or nothing. That's cause I can't I have to lay it and let You do it. But God, I want to do it so bad. Forgive us our transgressions, help, PLEASE HELP! just take control. Remind us of what Your love is and how much You put up with us on a daily basis, maybe it will knock some sense into us. Please, help me to believe nothing is impossible, with you. the fight is on! In Jesus name. Amen.

I can't do this, I just can't, I think I'm losing my mind. Its all jumbled up. I think the overcast day is not helping. Dan what's the deal ?

"Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day."
Psalm 25:5-I'm waiting impatiently, what do You want?

Truth is truth whether 100 or 1 agree. Yet how do we fig that out? Constant studying and faith, a focus on backing up the Bible not that backing us up.

We love to think we are right and everyone else is wrong unless they agree, but is that true? 100 agree and 1 doesn't, does it make the 100 right? No.

We are flawed then, for perfection and flawless is His words. That is why we have much division and dif interpretations. Can we accept that and humble self?
