The Greatest Gift

The Greatest Gift
1 Corinthians 13





1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect has come, then that this is in part will be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Damn the Mind

Damn the Mind 8-27-2017 Damn the mind and it wanting to take you into the dark recesses of its inner core. You know the place, where it screams out that no one loves you, what you think is not important. If it was important, the person you just sent that text to would answer and not wait until it is late evening, they would not tell you that the link of a video you made was not important enough to look at because they were not in the mood. In other words my mind is telling me that they do not think that I am important enough for their attention??!?!?!?!? When they finally ask if you are okay, your answer is, “I’m fine,” because you do not want to unload the inner turmoil rolling around in your mind! Then your mind really goes dark and says, what would be the quickest and easiest way to end your life? Sigh… One is to go into the Mighty Mississippi in freezing cold temps.  One, I no longer live in St Louis and it is August.  Two, take every pill that y...

The Beginning of Life on the Wheeled Side

Image
January 6, 2020, I went to the hospital exhibiting the following symptoms: I was blind with Nystagmus,  Vertigo so bad that I could not walk without assistance, and with the Vertigo came severe Nausea... My then girlfriend and her 17 year old son walked me to her car when she came home from work and took me to St Anthony's Hospital in St Louis MO . I sat in the Emergency Room from 10:30pm until 6:30am, since it was Flu Season and I was throwing up, I am assuming that they thought I just had the flu??? Went back to see a doctor and thus began 10 days of testing and a doctor that scared me! She spoke broken english with a Middle Eastern accent, had cross eyes, (so you never knew if she was looking at you?) and kept having me do these strange things like look at her nose and then follow her finger as she moved it up, down, and side to side. (occasionally holding up some fingers and asking how many?) Obviously, she was a WITCH DOCTOR!!! I asked her and the staff to communicate ...
