Then, Job began directly addressing God. “[T[he mountain falls and crumbles away,” he said, “and the rock is removed from its place; the waters wear away the stones; the torrents wash away the soil of the earth; so you destroy the hope of mortals. You prevail forever against them, and they pass away” (15:18-20).


O that my words were written down! O that they were inscribed in a book! O that with an iron pen and with lead they were engraved on a rock forever! For I know that my Redeemer

lives, and that at the last he will stand upon the earth; and after my skin has been thus destroyed, then in 
my flesh I shall see God, whom I shall see on my side, and my eyes shall behold, and not another. (19:23-7)

Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they who mourn,
for they will be comforted.

Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the land.

Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be satisfied.

Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.

Blessed are the clean in heart,
for they will see God. 

Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God. 

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Jesus

Kosciuszko's Advice to a Youth To do honor to your family and yourself and at my recommendation, you must reread what follows every day so that it will be engraved on your memory on which your well being will depend. Rise at four in the summer and six in the winter. Your first thoughts must be directed towards the Supreme Being; worship Him for a few minutes. Set yourself to work with reflection and intelligence, either at your prescribed duty carried out in the most scrupulous manner, or perfect yourself in some science in which you should have true mastery. Avoid lying under any circumstances in your life, but always be frank and loyal and always tell the truth. Never be idle but be sober and frugal even hard on yourself while indulgent to others. Do not be vain nor an egotist (1763 https://www.etymonline.com/word/egoist). Before speaking or answering on something, reflect and consider well in order not to lose your point and say something stupid. Never fail to give due recogniti

 Crosby, Still, Nash & Young - Find the Cost of Freedom lyrics    Daylight again, following me to bed I think about a hundred years ago, how my fathers bled I think I see a valley, covered with bones in blue All the brave soldiers that cannot get older been askin' after you Hear the past a callin', from Ar- -megeddon's side When everyone's talkin' and noone is listenin', how can we decide? (Do we) find the cost of freedom, buried in the ground Mother earth will swallow you, lay your body down Find the cost of freedom, buried in the ground Mother earth will swallow you, lay your body down (Find the cost of freedom buried in the ground) Crosby, Still, Nash & Youn g https://youtu.be/0nlXmYVE_X8 https://youtu.be/Gq7qvc1ZNAs

 A reaction to listening to Richard Feynman on Quantum Mechanics Part 1 - Photons Corpuscles of Light.  The long and short of which is LIGHT is composed of corpuscles or particles, NOT waves, and their occurrence of Reflection from a surface, such as water or a window pane or a glass lens, vs the occurrence of transmission through the substance is, though precisely measurable and regular for varying frequencies of LIGHT , a completely random occurrence.  The ultimate conclusion is Nature operates on a basis of  random occurrences. Which once they happen in measurable quantity can be found to happen in precise regular measurements.  To carry this forward to my thesis about Mary and Jesus where in Mary could have declined to be the Mother of Jesus. I think I offered that there may have been many women before Mary who did just this. This construct of Physics demonstrates exactly this. God from the moment of 'the fall' of Adam and Eve in the Garden began the process of correcting t
