Today 31/08/2022 I seen my Neurologist via video call when I told him how I have been since last seen in December by video.
During the call he asked how my seizures were compared to last call where I said there was hardly any seizures (possibly due to reduced stress in my life).
I told him so far at the beginning of the year and around mid summer there was very little activity, but in February I had four seizures and in August as many as seven. (Most of them Complex)
When asked what triggered them I could only think of a few things (forgotten meds & interrupted sleep).
No change has been made to medication and he said he would call us in about six weeks
There is no other way to describe what I just experienced.
Coincidence, miracle, synchronicity, divine timing…it is gods magic.
I went to the memorial of a friends daughter yesterday. My friend Laura’s 22 year old daughter Alex, tragically and suddenly passed away 3 years ago on August 28th.
The exact moment that I heard she passed via phone call – a soft white feather slowly and gently was floating in front of my window. I was in shock.
Now it is 3 years later and a beautiful Sunday morning and we have gathered to celebrate Alex.
The first thing I notice is that one of the stones diagonally behind Alex’s plot is a stone for YOUNG. This is my married name.
Then I was asked to take some photos so I walked around to the front and I see diagonally in front of Alex’s plot a memorial for FRAZIER –…
25 At that time Jesus declared, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children; 26 yes, Father, for such was your gracious will.[g]27 All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. 28 Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
I am grateful for the doctors, psychologists, religious folk and every day people that went before me trying to figure out a “cure” for the alcoholic and drug addict.
Carl Jung happened to be one of those people. He understood that the alcoholic was not doing anything but seeking a connection with god.
This meant that it was not a moral issue. It was not due to ignorance, class, height, weight, color, where you came from or who you knew.
I drank and used drugs in an attempt to fill myself in search of a higher energy. It worked for awhile but the fix was only temporary.
Then when I was in rehab over 12 years ago I heard someone say “this is a disease that has a spiritual solution.” I knew – right then and there – this was about god.
Many of us with all sorts of disabilities will be struggling with the high rate of inflation and cost of living, with many of us turning to Food Banks as well as having to cope with the rising cost of fuel for cars and homes. It is hard times for those on low incomes.
65 ‘I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me; I was found by those who did not seek me. To a nation that did not call on my name, I said, “Here am I, here am I.” 2 All day long I have held out my hands to an obstinate people, who walk in ways not good, pursuing their own imaginations – 3 a people who continually provoke me to my very face, offering sacrifices in gardens and burning incense on altars of brick; 4 who sit among the graves and spend their nights keeping secret vigil; who eat the flesh of pigs, and whose pots hold broth of impure meat; 5 who say, “Keep away; don’t come near me, for I am too sacred for you!” Such people are smoke in my nostrils, a fire that keeps burning all day.
6 ‘See, it stands written before me; I will not keep silent but will pay back in full; I will pay it back into their laps – 7 both your sins and the sins of your ancestors,’ says the Lord. ‘Because they burned sacrifices on the mountains and defied me on the hills, I will measure into their laps the full payment for their former deeds.’
8 This is what the Lord says:
‘As when juice is still found in a cluster of grapes and people say, “Don’t destroy it, there is still a blessing in it,” so will I do on behalf of my servants; I will not destroy them all. 9 I will bring forth descendants from Jacob, and from Judah those who will possess my mountains; my chosen people will inherit them, and there will my servants live. 10 Sharon will become a pasture for flocks, and the Valley of Achor a resting-place for herds, for my people who seek me.
11 ‘But as for you who forsake the Lord and forget my holy mountain, who spread a table for Fortune and fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny, 12 I will destine you for the sword, and all of you will fall in the slaughter; for I called but you did not answer, I spoke but you did not listen. You did evil in my sight and chose what displeases me.’
13 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
‘My servants will eat, but you will go hungry; my servants will drink, but you will go thirsty; my servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame. 14 My servants will sing out of the joy of their hearts, but you will cry out from anguish of heart and wail in brokenness of spirit. 15 You will leave your name for my chosen ones to use in their curses; the Sovereign Lord will put you to death, but to his servants he will give another name. 16 Whoever invokes a blessing in the land will do so by the one true God; whoever takes an oath in the land will swear by the one true God. For the past troubles will be forgotten and hidden from my eyes.

14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God[a]; believe also in me.2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Today we have yet another popular reading, as we did yesterday. Here at the beginning we are told that we should not worry if we believe in God and Jesus. Furthermore Jesus tell us his Father’s house has many rooms or mansions as the King James bible puts it And he is going to prepare a place for us, then he will return to take us home.
Even if we have sinned and asked forgiveness.
As for the people who do not believe in God or Jesus They will never see God’s mansion
