Greetings... This post is NOT my attempt to control anything anyone posts. That's not my place. I'd rather use this forum to encourage anyone who posts on social media to post only things that are GOOD , TRUE , and/or BEAUTIFUL . If what you're about to post is neither GOOD , TRUE , nor BEAUTIFUL , do us all a favor and keep it to yourself. Speaking up for myself only (and whomever might like to join me in this), I'm not interested in anyone's partisan-driven political views. Most partisan-driven political posts that I encounter on social media often lean toward the extreme and, most likely, find their basis in half-truths, egregious polemics, flagrant exaggeration, and outright falsehood. Often, such posts label those who disagree with the one who posted it as being totally worthy of public shaming (or worse). That's really saddening to me. In the past, I've posted political opinions. And I regret those that were partisan-driven....
Four Factors that Enabled The Faithful (in the first and second centuries) to Thrive [ Note : Again, these overlap and are synergistic ] in “this current Earth-life”… 1/ The Person and Presence of The Holy Spirit . 2/The deeply supportive role of The True (and local) Church Community (that is, The Local Ekklesia — The Expanded Fellowship, Image, and Authority of The Trinity on Earth). 3/ The Messages of The Cross [ see segment later in this section ].

"The Truth is… Yes, I was once A Little Child . The Truth is, too, that I (very mysteriously) still am." To read more, well, just keep reading :o)... -- Jesus … I was Once a Child ; but, somewhere along the line, I forgot Who I Was . And, as a consequence, I (through neglect and forgetfulness) abandoned That Little One . Help me, Lord , to remember … To remember… what it was really like to be That Little One … … for I’ve forgotten so much. The Truth is… Yes, I was once A Little Child . The Truth is, too, that I (very mysteriously) still am. As Papa’s Told me many, many times now, I’m “still VERY , VERY young in The Kingdom .” Help me, Lord , to feel this and to Live and PLAY (!!) into it (that is, to Live and play into WHO I am—and to do so for all Eternity ). Help me to rediscover and to be once and again That Little One that I Truly Am — That Little One that Plays at Life , and… T...
