Someone like you deserves all of life's richest blessings and not this, but don’t worry much this is just a test.

    Authentic Prayer” Matthew 6:7-13, 7:7-11

    3-4-18 Pastor Tom “Authentic Prayer” Matthew 6:7-13, 7:7-11 Matthew 6:7-13 - And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 “This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, 10 your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us today our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’ Skip ahead to Matthew 7:7-11 - Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! Finally! We’ve been going through the Sermon on the Mount, and Jesus is telling us everything we need to do. But this week, we finally get something out of this whole Christianity thing! He says if we just ask, seek, and knock, we will receive, find, and the door will be opened for us! So here comes the big question: What are you gonna ask for? The guy who turns water into wine, who heals the sick, raises the dead, and does a ton of other miracles says, “ask and it will be given to you.” Man, “Well, Jesus, where do I start? Car, vacation, house… I guess I should throw in world peace, too…” This actually reminds me of a commercial from a few years ago where some people got whatever they asked for.

    Urging All of Us to Open Our Minds and Hearts So That We Can Know Beyond

    CHAPTER 1 HOLISTIC READING We have left the land and embarked. We have burned our bridges behind us- indeed we have gone farther and destroyed the land behind us. Now, little ship, look out! Beside you is the ocean: to be sure, it does not always roar, and at times it lies spread out like silk and gold and reveries of graciousness. But hours will come when you realize that it is infinite and that there is nothing more awesome than infinity... Oh, the poor bird that felt free now strikes the walls of this cage! Woe, when you feel homesick for the land as if it had offered more freedom- and there is no longer any ―land.‖ - Nietzsche Each man‘s life represents a road toward himself, an attempt at such a road, the intimation of a path. No man has ever been entirely and completely himself. Yet each one strives to become that- one in an awkward, the other in a more intelligent way, each as best he can. Each man carries the vestiges of his birth- the slime and eggshells of his primeval past-… to the end of his days... Each represents a gamble on the part of nature in creation of the human. We all share the same origin, our mothers; all of us come in at the same door. But each of us- experiments of the depths- strives toward his own destiny. We can understand one another; but each is able to interpret himself alone. – Herman Hesse 1 In this chapter I suggest a new method of reading, which I call “holistic reading.” Building on the spiritual model of the Self offered by Jiddu Krishnamurti and the psychological model of “self” offered by Dr.

  • My Friend Has Cancer. What Can I Do to Help?

    My Friend Has Cancer. What Can I Do to Help?

    My friend has cancer. What can I do to help? Lymphoma Foundation of America asked more than 100 lymphoma survivors to tell us what their friends and family members did for them that was helpful, comforting, and needed. Here are their candid answers on what to say and do, and what not to say or do when someone you know has cancer. Understand the roller coaster. Cancer patients are on a roller coaster. Their recovery has major ups and downs. Sometimes tests turn out great. Other times not so good. Patients feel strong and hopeful when treatments are working; anxious and fearful when results are disappointing. One day things are fine, the next day your friend feels sick. The journey to recovery is not predictable day to day, and each person reacts differently. Remember to be flexible with your friend’s changing moods and medical situation. (Certain medications can cause mood swings). You can provide much needed support with your caring and compassion. Even a few tender words can go a long way. Stay calm. A newly diagnosed cancer patient can be confused, frightened, sad, and angry. By the time you are shocked to learn that your friend has cancer, they are likely already having tests and beginning a treatment plan with their doctors. Don’t bring panic back into their life. Be calm, be thoughtful, and simply listen. It is selfish to talk about yourself. Focus instead on your friend’s needs and experiences. This journey is all about them, not you. Try on their shoes. Put yourself in your friend’s shoes.
  • There Is One Place Horsemen Go for Comfort - Our Horses' Manes

    There Is One Place Horsemen Go for Comfort - Our Horses' Manes

    The purpose of manes. by Patricia Tocco There is one place horsemen go for comfort - our horses' manes. The mane is there to hold on to in times of peril - including if you feel you're about to loose your balance and hit the ground while mounted. "Grab mane" - the instructor will shout out to you. It's security. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. There is a great quote by Englishman William Camden ; "Betwixt the stirrups and the ground, mercy I asked for, mercy I found." Sometimes, mane, stirrups and saddles are no match for a bucking horse. If you bury your head in your horse's mane, you'll smell each horses' distinctive odor. It's not what you think - it's not offensive. It's the smell that would have you identify them if smell were your only sense. Breathe in and mark it so you can recall it. If you bury your head in your horse's mane on a sunny Carolina blue sky day, you are filled with a sense of joy at being alive and having such a noble creature as your friend. Yes, they are there day in and day out requiring feeding and care. Non-horse people label it as work. That daily rhythm is our tether to the balloon of life. Sometimes you're soaring, sometimes you're crashing. No matter what, those daily chores keep you grounded. If you bury your head in your horse's mane while laughing at something playful they have done, you share a special moment - a time of pure joy.

    A CLUSTER OF PRECIOUS MEMORIES A bud the Gardener gave us, A cluster of precious memories A pure and lovely child. Sprayed with a million tears He gave it to our keeping Wishing God had spared you If only for a few more years. To cherish undefiled; You left a special memory And just as it was opening And a sorrow too great to hold, To the glory of the day, To us who loved and lost you Down came the Heavenly Father Your memory will never grow old. Thanks for the years we had, And took our bud away. Thanks for the memories we shared. We only prayed that when you left us That you knew how much we cared. 1 2 AFTERGLOW A Heart of Gold I’d like the memory of me A heart of gold stopped beating to be a happy one. I’d like to leave an afterglow Working hands at rest of smiles when life is done. God broke our hearts to prove to us I’d like to leave an echo He only takes the best whispering softly down the ways, Leaves and flowers may wither Of happy times and laughing times The golden sun may set and bright and sunny days. I’d like the tears of those who grieve But the hearts that loved you dearly to dry before too long, Are the ones that won’t forget. And cherish those very special memories to which I belong. 4 3 ALL IS WELL A LIFE – WELL LIVED Death is nothing at all, I have only slipped away into the next room.

    A Study of the Rap Music Industry in Bogota, Colombia by Laura

    The Art of the Hustle: A Study of the Rap Music Industry in Bogota, Colombia by Laura L. Bunting-Hudson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2017 © 2017 Laura L. Bunting-Hudson All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The Art of the Hustle: A Study of the Rap Music Industry in Bogota, Colombia Laura L. Bunting-Hudson How do rap artists in Bogota, Colombia come together to make music? What is the process they take to commodify their culture? Why are some rappers able to become socially mobile in this process, while others are less so? What is technology’s role in all of this? This ethnography explores those questions, as it carefully documents the strategies utilized by various rap groups in Bogota, Colombia to create social mobility, commoditize products and to create a different vision of modernity within the hip-hop community, as an alternative to the ideals set forth by mainstream Colombian society. Resistance Art Poetry (RAP), is said to have originated in the United States but has become a form of international music. In conducting ethnographic research from December of 2012 to October 2014, I was able to discover how rappers organize themselves politically, how they commoditize their products and distribute them to create various types of social mobilities. In this dissertation, I constructed models to typologize rap groups in Bogota, Colombia, which I call polities of rappers to discuss how these groups come together, take shape, make plans and execute them to reach their business goals.
