"CHASING THE FIRE… WELCOMING THE HAMMER… BECOMING A SWORD… BEDOMING UNBREAKABLE…" (To read more, well, just keep reading!) Provided below are prayers and sayings I pray over, and over, and over again while I'm out and about.  Pick one today and, when you're out and about, just repeat it over, and over, and over again (and out loud if your surroundings will allow it). Lord… Have Mercy… Holy Trinity… Come… Lord… Save me; Don’t Let me go… The Trinity Is With Me and Within Me… I am One with The Trinity… Chasing The Fire… welcoming The Hammer… becoming A Sword… becoming Unbreakable… Selflessness... and service… Lord… I want to be Holy, Healthy, and Happy… Lord… May I treat everyone [including myself] I meet with the utmost kindness, respect, dignity, and Compassion…

"I AM THE VICTIM.  THAT PERSON ATTACKED ME." (To read more, well, just keep reading!) If you ever have to defend yourself physically (and you survive), say these three things to the police when they show-up at the scene: 1/Tell the officers, "I am the victim." 2/Point to the person that attacked you, and tell the officers, "That person attacked me."  If others witnessed it, point to those people, and tell the officers, "... and those people saw what happened."  If the person who attacked you used a weapon, point to the weapon, and tell the officers, "... and that's the weapon that person used when he attacked me." And... 3/Don't answer any questions.  Instead, tell the officers, "I'm really shaken-up right now and cannot answer any questions without my lawyer present."  Be very firm with this. - Again (to reinforce the above), say these three things: 1/"I am the victim." 2/"That person attacked me......

  "BE YOU, AND LET PEOPLE FEEL THE WEIGHT OF WHO YOU ARE..." (To read more, well, just keep reading!) Provided below are a few of the meditative sayings I recite each morning to help me "prime the pump" as I launch into Morning Worship: Dave… Take what’s Mine, and make it yours. —Jesus Nobody cares, Dave … so just work harder. —Unk [adapted] At best, “correctors (especially, over-zealous, self-righteous ones)” are tolerated. Don’t be a corrector; DEMONSTRATE how things “can or could” be done. Show; don’t correct (or tell). Carry yourself in this way, and you’ll go a lot further in helping others to be and become The People They Say They Want to Be. — YT [Yankee Tango (aka "Yours Truly")] Shun any and all meaningless busyness. Do that, and maybe then you’ll find that which makes you come Alive as a person. —Inspired by themes portrayed in the 1952 Japanese film Ikiru [ikiru means “to live”] “I can’t afford to hate people. I haven’t got that kind of time....

  "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 one A Little Child; but, somewhere along the line, I forgot Who I Was. And, as a consequence, I (through neglect, forgetfulness, and even thoughtlessness) 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 and neglected 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 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… That Little One that Wanders about with a Deep Affinity for, Wonder in...
