    The Unfolding of Your Words

    “Your testimonies are wonderful; therefore my soul keeps them. The unfolding of your words gives light; it imparts understanding to the simple. I open my mouth and pant, because I long for your commandments. Turn to me and be gracious to me, as is your way with those who love...

    Laser Beams in Space: They are invisible

    Hello folks. Yesterday I have learned something about lasers. If one were to turn on a laser in a vacuum (such as in space), it would be impossible to see the beam of light, except where the light touches an object, no matter how powerful the laser is. In 2021, scientists made lasers visible in...

    The Darkest Night

    Dimly lit, the darkest night, Is the light of truth inside? Masqueraders all around, Many turned now into clowns. Charlatans now lead the sheep Who are falling fast asleep. Nill endeavor truth to find, They are very truly blind. Many hardened hearts to truth They live wicked lives, uncouth...

    You Say You Love God

    You say you love God, but do you truly? For your life is being lived unruly. You say that darkness, it did dissipate, But by your words you, the truth, now negate. You say a lot of things that are untrue. Believing what you say is hard to do. Your witness is not pure, nor is your life, For you...

    Is the Timeline Set?

    I suppose I'm treading on determinism grounds that have been explored, but I had my own idea about the timeline with respect to light. I have no idea whether this has been considered by others. Too lazy to try to track it down on the internet. In relativity, one of the fun things about light is...

    trouble believing God it could be,

    Pray about this. Lord do I have any spirits of doubt or unbelief. These spirits can be a real hindrance. Or do I have spirits of fear in waiting for God to manifest my answer while I am in a certain trial of trouble. Ps. 46:1 The Lord is a very present help in time of trouble--by faith...

    Love the Light and Hate the Darkness

    John 3:19-21 ESV “And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever...

    Hi there, So I have just been thinking on faith, why I do't have enough, basically and it has dawned on me that I don't understand the times of Man. The times of man are bound by the words of Jesus that "this generation shall not pass until all these things have come to pass" (gospels, from...
