Yeah well.
He has brought many back from confusion. He went before them into the spaces thru which their hearts had migrated in going astray, due to the depth of Him who encompasses all dimensions without himself being encompassed. It is a great wonder that they were within the Father without recognizing him, and that they were able to depart unto themselves because they could neither comprehend nor recognize him in whom they were. For thus his volition had not yet emerged from within himself. For he revealed himself so that all his emanations would reunite with him in recognition.

Dejected in the Hull
This picture sums up all l can say about the season HCFC are currently enduring
Despite the efforts and encouragement offered by the fans it all gone petetong
Unhappily l cannot see the way forward
I suspect that why Kevin is a supporter and not a footballer
Not a great fan but very interested and follow my home team
but economically holistically it good for hull City to be in the premier league
But wages and the aspiration of some of the squad suggest we are not capable of surviving in this league at present
But how. . . I wish for myself to be wrong
Apr 11, 2015
this is what l found about the Gospel of Mary
Chapter 4
(Pages 1 to 6 of the manuscript, containing chapters 1 - 3, are lost. The extant text starts on page 7...)
. . . Will matter then be destroyed or not?
22) The Savior said, All nature, all formations, all creatures exist in and with one another, and they will be resolved again into their own roots.
23) For the nature of matter is resolved into the roots of its own nature alone.
24) He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
25) Peter said to him, Since you have explained everything to us, tell us this also: What is the sin of the world?
26) The Savior said There is no sin, but it is you who make sin when you do the things that are like the nature of adultery, which is called sin.
27) That is why the Good came into your midst, to the essence of every nature in order to restore it to its root.
28) Then He continued and said, That is why you become sick and die, for you are deprived of the one who can heal you.
29) He who has a mind to understand, let him understand.
30) Matter gave birth to a passion that has no equal, which proceeded from something contrary to nature. Then there arises a disturbance in its whole body.
31) That is why I said to you, Be of good courage, and if you are discouraged be encouraged in the presence of the different forms of nature.
32) He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
33) When the Blessed One had said this, He greeted them all,saying, Peace be with you. Receive my peace unto yourselves.
34) Beware that no one lead you astray saying Lo here or lo there! For the Son of Man is within you.
35) Follow after Him!
36) Those who seek Him will find Him.
37) Go then and preach the gospel of the Kingdom.
38) Do not lay down any rules beyond what I appointed you, and do not give a law like the lawgiver lest you be constrained by it.
39) When He said this He departed.
Chapter 5
1) But they were grieved. They wept greatly, saying, How shall we go to the Gentiles and preach the gospel of the Kingdom of the Son of Man? If they did not spare Him, how will they spare us?
2) Then Mary stood up, greeted them all, and said to her brethren, Do not weep and do not grieve nor be irresolute, for His grace will be entirely with you and will protect you.
3) But rather, let us praise His greatness, for He has prepared us and made us into Men.
4) When Mary said this, she turned their hearts to the Good, and they began to discuss the words of the Savior.
5) Peter said to Mary, Sister we know that the Savior loved you more than the rest of woman.
6) Tell us the words of the Savior which you remember which you know, but we do not, nor have we heard them.
7) Mary answered and said, What is hidden from you I will proclaim to you.
8) And she began to speak to them these words: I, she said, I saw the Lord in a vision and I said to Him, Lord I saw you today in a vision. He answered and said to me,
9) Blessed are you that you did not waver at the sight of Me. For where the mind is there is the treasure.
10) I said to Him, Lord, how does he who sees the vision see it, through the soul or through the spirit?
11) The Savior answered and said, He does not see through the soul nor through the spirit, but the mind that is between the two that is what sees the vision and it is [...]
(pages 11 - 14 are missing from the manuscript)
Chapter 8:
. . . it.
10) And desire said, I did not see you descending, but now I see you ascending. Why do you lie since you belong to me?
11) The soul answered and said, I saw you. You did not see me nor recognize me. I served you as a garment and you did not know me.
12) When it said this, it (the soul) went away rejoicing greatly.
13) Again it came to the third power, which is called ignorance.
14) The power questioned the soul, saying, Where are you going? In wickedness are you bound. But you are bound; do not judge!
15) And the soul said, Why do you judge me, although I have not judged?
16) I was bound, though I have not bound.
17) I was not recognized. But I have recognized that the All is being dissolved, both the earthly things and the heavenly.
18) When the soul had overcome the third power, it went upwards and saw the fourth power, which took seven forms.
19) The first form is darkness, the second desire, the third ignorance, the fourth is the excitement of death, the fifth is the kingdom of the flesh, the sixth is the foolish wisdom of flesh, the seventh is the wrathful wisdom. These are the seven powers of wrath.
20) They asked the soul, Whence do you come slayer of men, or where are you going, conqueror of space?
21) The soul answered and said, What binds me has been slain, and what turns me about has been overcome,
22) and my desire has been ended, and ignorance has died.
23) In a aeon I was released from a world, and in a Type from a type, and from the fetter of oblivion which is transient.
24) From this time on will I attain to the rest of the time, of the season, of the aeon, in silence.
Chapter 9
1) When Mary had said this, she fell silent, since it was to this point that the Savior had spoken with her.
2) But Andrew answered and said to the brethren, Say what you wish to say about what she has said. I at least do not believe that the Savior said this. For certainly these teachings are strange ideas.
3) Peter answered and spoke concerning these same things.
4) He questioned them about the Savior: Did He really speak privately with a woman and not openly to us? Are we to turn about and all listen to her? Did He prefer her to us?
5) Then Mary wept and said to Peter, My brother Peter, what do you think? Do you think that I have thought this up myself in my heart, or that I am lying about the Savior?
6) Levi answered and said to Peter, Peter you have always been hot tempered.
7) Now I see you contending against the woman like the adversaries.
8) But if the Savior made her worthy, who are you indeed to reject her? Surely the Savior knows her very well.
9) That is why He loved her more than us. Rather let us be ashamed and put on the perfect Man, and separate as He commanded us and preach the gospel, not laying down any other rule or other law beyond what the Savior said.
10) And when they heard this they began to go forth to proclaim and to preach.

Jihadie brides true reflection BBC 2
Britain's Jihadi Brides,
a personal view by the `spiritofthestreets`
International investigative documentary series. More than sixty young British women have travelled to join the so-called Islamic State in Syria, lured by a combination of slick marketing, social media and religious fervour. With access to the friends and family of the some of the girls, Britain's Jihadi Brides reveals how the sophisticated recruiting tactics of IS have shattered so many lives.
Faultless story and very trueful, I was also greatly impressed with the way the story came from the women.
produced
told
involved
effected
women folk realy involved educational and informative.
Very rarely do l witnessed the standerd of life sharing done in this documentry
it never moved from presenting tough facts and the image was honest
more like this please
really hope those directly influnced by this vile death cult will be able to access the contributors advice and information correctly provided (ACTULLY THIS SHOULD BE OUR PRAYER).
Faiths often place women in difficult situations
the Christian faith is no differant heartbreaking included last evening was interview with the mother of Grace Dare, also known as someone else by her sisiters from the Mosque,but lets stay with her name of grace.
she had been brought up as a Christian in the UK, but converted to Islam at college then fled to Syria. Also we heard about twins Salma and Zahra Halane, desiring to train as doctors with 28 GCSEs between them. These girls were not stupid. They were normal, well-educated young people who deserved better protection and more information.
One fact not commented on but clear they all went about thier business with heads covered and mainly lived outside of the hosting culture.
It was explained how IS preachers use traditional cult tactics, promising a way out for teenagers struggling with natural feelings of confusion and injustice.
very natural growing pains explioted in the main by Men,older men, Western girls who’ve joined IS are prolific recruiters on social media, selling an idealised lifestyle. They tweet in sometimes hard to understand mixture of English, Arabic and text-speak, posting pictures of kittens and Kalashnikovs side by side.
But once girls reach IS territory, they can have their passports confiscated and are often threatened with execution if they try to leave. Videos showed IS militants conducting sex slave markets, bidding for ownership of 15-year-olds.
Next week looks like being a barrel of laughs also
'titled "the killing of the Christians"
bet that gonna be laff a minute

Thick fog on the north east coast
Spring watch from our locality
But thick fog keeps the weather chilly
Views not so grand
Just been to social action that is `our Easter breakfast`
Balloons+kids+sauages sandwich
Fun
Reflective
The process of the victory of the Cross
Shrouded in mystery
But the value is in accepting redemption
Maybe like U2
I still haven't found what l am looking for
But great what l found so far
My faith just enough for the life I live
Apr 6, 2015
This is a study
If l remember l will put up a picture
Of my study place
Perhaps this is where l been going wrong
At my age finding out not studious enough
Deep spiritofthestreets thoughts for Easter 2015
Here is a statement that is true but others will think its not a true statement
Little bit of thought and your theology (how you make sense of God).This can provide insight,
If the spiritual more important why did the king of kings after the resuraction prepare breakfast on a beach for his followers?
If the spiritual more important why did the king of kings after the resuraction prepare breakfast on a beach for his followers?
Why did he not organise a retreat to discuss deep meaningful ! Spiritual! Things and stuff Issues,why this surely was the perfect time.
because we are created in Gods image,so he cares about the social,along with the physical,
equally to what often people feel is the spiritual,the ressuraction is a physical and material event which engages with us on the spiritual realm also.....
St kevanous of the Humber is credited with this saying A Saint l am named after.
Please let's have a win you beautiful human tigers like things
Time for not her naibiting period
For the fans of super Hull City
Most of my family
Been great for the city the local. Economy discussions
Great coverage international
So please an Easter prayer
3 points and more security
Although of course it is only a game
With the females coming to the front
Really interesting that it's the Mary's and Martha's who now takes us forward
The men maybe hiding due to fear
Or risk of certain death
But here in the gospels the women folk take us on in our understanding of the Easter story

Not sure why of Greenbelt 2015
Still not sure this northern soul understand the reason behind the stupid way of ticketing
for GB 15!
But also getting a little fed up with lack of real festival artist site becoming unattractive with its quirky circus type, art fluffy bum types.
If we wanted a place to change the world
GB was the gathering now it's become a retreat for fearful hippies.
Many struggle to connect in the real world so want to select only the numbers who agree with them,
GB if l recall this was the gathering that censored Larry Norman a prophet from their midsts.
Still.
Hope 4 better

come on you Easter Hull
TWO wins six points.I believe Hull City need at least that from next few games
although now eight Premier League games to avoid the drop.
Steve Bruce will be targeting more, no doubt about it, but it's worth remembering City are in a strong position as the run-in begins.
If they grab 34 points between now and May 24
it makes it tough for others around us espically the Black cats.

It's the most wonderful time of the year
Naked
Body abused
In agony
Rejected
Forsaken
Feeling cut off and alone
Friends departed
Mother looks up at the figure on the cross
Her son
"It's the most wonderful time if the year"
Windy cold washing up done feeling disconnected
Sometimes so grateful for the smaller stuff,
Washing up
Friends Chatting, people eating, sharing meal. Meeting up walking together.
It's spiritual measure, that believe when we appreciate the small stuff,
Recognise how important Relationships Friends are. That's the important stuff
Going to chat meet friend this evening.
But it's so windy,
Wow where that wind come from?
Anyone know fierce, cold, chilly,period.
Been bit too long this winter!

Me and the farmer. . . via the Archers
These are the times that try men’s souls. Young Pip turned up trumps (“Pass me the wrench!”), the vicar was a tower of strength (“We have plenty of candles!”), Adam and Charlie had a tender moment down a drain (“Reach my hand! I’m not going to leave you!”) and Roy, seizing time by the forelock, coaxed the lady of the manor into taking her clothes off again (“Elizabeth, you are soaking!”).
Sury the best paragraph to describe the Archers
Personally l feel this was a low point in the dramam series
One l have been although not faithfully
Been listening to since l was a 'tailor'in Hull back in 1974
It was disturbing because it was so unreal
Also helped get rid of a lot of story lines
That where not worth investment
A TV programme
A song
A radio or even a podcast
Need to let me know
They are worth my investment
In time
Energy following through
Investment in listening
I was sadly glad when this week ended
It just dragged and at every turn l expected a death
Yet of course it was the silent ones who died
Still another gay story line about father snogging another farmer
Both males of course
It very predictable
Still l be tuned n all this week
When you vote feel for the vulnerable
When
If
You vote
Do it not for yourself
Not for your family
Do it for those who are the most vulnerable in our society
Those who may not be inyour community
Do it for the Lord
Pray first
May be like myself there is no one deserving of my vote
But argue
Argue against the cuts that affect the most vulnerable
Stand up for those who are vulnerable
Do it for them

I` ii be at Dams
Back to North Yorkshire map for this visit to a place newly discovered, Filey Dams Nature Reserve.
Apparently last remaining freshwater marsh of any size in the area,(although the north York's moors routes has scaling dam?) Filey Dams OK, fine with some migratory birds.
Further also decent place to observe plants, small mammals, even if your really lucky, amphibians.

| GREAT TIME WATCHING WITH MATTHEW MARCH 2015 |
This quiet place consists large freshwater lagoons, surrounded marsh and grassland, occasionally grazed with cattle.
Soft rush dominates, joined in the shallow water by toad rush, bottle sedge, also branched bur-reed. Alongside distinctive yellow flag iris.
A short walk takes you to the Main Hide among small copse with nest boxes used by tree sparrows. This leads along a,nervous,tricky, boardwalk to pond-dipping platform at edge of a quiet pool. Phew.
Sometimes dragonflies skim the water settling on the mat of amphibious bistort;...look it up... if you are quite fortunate might see water vole perhaps among the water forget-me-not. It is recommended that dusk or very early visit will enable Owls,Foxes and others to be witnessed.
Or you could stay on bed ..Sorry Matty..All three British species of newt occur here which are smooth, palmate and great crested, the latter species recognised nationally important numbers.
l personally recommend a visit. As does Matty.
orthonalgy with son
thursday at the hide on the north east coast with Matty,
Another generally quiet few days with unhelpful conditions, but the first trans-Saharan migrants still made it through in the very welcome form of two Sand Martins – the first of which came in off the sea on Carr Naze – on 24th (MJP). The same day saw a single Scandinavian Rock Pipit on the Brigg, a male Stonechat on Carr Naze …
Previsous Monday, March 23rd.
Spring is still stuttering in at a typically pedestrian pace presently, reflected in the relative highlights over the last week. Pick of the bunch was certainly a Bewick’s Swan which went north with a flock of 12 Whooper Swans on 20th, with a further 38 Whoopers north this morning. Modest signs of early spring passerine migration

My history my story
A big part of the story of my life
Would include the northeast coast and the sand plus the sea
I suppose it all about nostalgia thinking overthe years
Long walks from hull to Robin Hood bay
Summer camps
Transistor radios
Sound of soul music
Longer snogs
Stars at night
First time away from family
Making own destination
Finding out about a place
It's geographic history place in the UK
Sounds . . . Smells . . . Sights
Aware growing old
Youth has past
Sometimes walk with the ghosts of yesterday
Memory clouded
Thoughts confused
Smile constant
At Filey
Been watching birds in a hide yesterday with my son in Filey
Great fun and silent enjoyable
Also Saint Oswolds Church nice Norman. Style
Lovely walks and a cup of BOvril
Returning for a pint and chat after l cooked the tea
Rice chicken and hilly bean mix
Been great in a caravan but colder thenl expected
The conversations
Touching nature
Silence
Watching daft TV and talking
Cold on the coast
New toilets environment friendly
But pain to use
So cold today I was freezing
Had long walks and swimming
Starting to hope for warmth of summer days
Healthy eating

Greenbelt 2015 l ponder further .
so thinking about Greenbelt 2015
Then l came across several Questions among interesting article
This in some way tries to explain the issues about buying this year tickets
For what is a very unique valuable creative faith based and spiritual uplifting
1.The return to a greenfield site after 15 years proved more expensive than we’d budgeted for. At the same time, slightly more of our audience than anticipated didn’t move to Boughton with us.
2. We had to dip into our reserves.
3. We had to use up our reserves.
4. We had to find some more funds after using up our reserves.
5. Thanks to some generous festival supporters, our wonderful band of Angels, and one benefactor in particular (match-funding all donations), we’ve raised close to £100,000.
6. In the past we’ve asked for short term loans to bridge periodic cash-flow crises, repaying them over time, carrying our debts forward. This time we wanted to clear our debts in one fell swoop.
But all this was a wake-up call, and staff and trustees were faced with some serious questions.
Here are some of the serious questions we were faced with.
1. After growing in size from 2000 to 2009, why, since then, has our audience been falling, each year by a few hundred people?
2.Having made small surpluses most years since 2001 on the hard-standing site at Cheltenham (hence those reserves we used up), did our losses in 2014 mean it was time to go back to a site with buildings and roads, with plumbing and plugholes?
3.In the absence of a major corporate partner (a brewery, for example, like other summer festivals which have not gone bust) is it even possible to build an open-air festival on a greenfield site for a relatively niche audience … and still be sustainable?
4. Is there a big enough audience in the UK for a progressive festival of arts, faith and justice? Do the wider demographics of religious institutions suggest Greenbelt’s audience is disappearing? Or is a Festival like this now more necessary than ever?
5. Is Greenbelt still needed? (10,500 people who bought tickets in 2014 think so… but are they enough?)
6. At the festival itself, do we try to do too many things? Too many venues, too much programming… trying to engage too many audiences?
7. We love the young people who attend the Festival but there’s not enough of them so how can Greenbelt become more their thing again?
8. Why are we still investing in a huge open air mainstage, with all the attendant infrastructure, when by the evening of the festival day most people instead seem to be in The Canopy, The Tiny Tea Tent, The Playhouse, The Big Top, The Jesus Arms, singing campsongs around the fire … or back at the tent with their mates?
9. And what about our organisation, especially the volunteers who breathe life into the festival every summer? How do we get new volunteers involved, and how might they shape the festival?
so prayer needed and reflecting back; got to ask has the young not attending!
Why you would then make provision and target them?
Why not work more with those age groups already enjoying and attending,
as an example so can the middle aged range be more encouraged.
Church groups can they be more welcomed, greater working targetting?
Further are you losing those older,camping hard on the knees?
So can you cater better for them?
Why would you target the youths -who do not attend..Yet not put effort into those already attending...
But for myself why is it predominately white..Good white folk despite the issues why does it remain mainly white..
Now this sounds like a critic but it an honest thought process.
1984 unti..2015?
Also do some of the issues isolate the festival,like support for Palestine community...GL and transgender communities
Then l came across several Questions among interesting article
This in some way tries to explain the issues about buying this year tickets
For what is a very unique valuable creative faith based and spiritual uplifting
1.The return to a greenfield site after 15 years proved more expensive than we’d budgeted for. At the same time, slightly more of our audience than anticipated didn’t move to Boughton with us.
2. We had to dip into our reserves.
3. We had to use up our reserves.
4. We had to find some more funds after using up our reserves.
5. Thanks to some generous festival supporters, our wonderful band of Angels, and one benefactor in particular (match-funding all donations), we’ve raised close to £100,000.
6. In the past we’ve asked for short term loans to bridge periodic cash-flow crises, repaying them over time, carrying our debts forward. This time we wanted to clear our debts in one fell swoop.

If you were born on March 21st 1956
if its your birthday here is your horoscope
every day someone thinks about you
they have more love then you will ever need
the sun in your heart still shines
allowing you to project that maternal instinct
so natural with Aries
although occaisonly crabby
that natural smile and charm
will always enable you to get ahead
money issues will have to be managed carefuly
the need for your own space may find you in the battery shop later
that call you need to make
will bring laughter plus the promise of hope for tomorrow.
Angels live forever love is forever also

soccer` isa funny ole game init Jim`
shameful behaviour by the so called supporters on Saturday is that what you call supporting a team?..Also incidents in and around the city centre, pafhtic leaving "we shouldn’t be losing to team like Hull""...you won’t have to worry about that soon..It will be "we shouldn’t be losing to teams like Barnsley"....get real, retire the old players. Blood some new ones and bring in decent players, start the deals now, retain Poyet ...mind you also feel the commentators on the radio contribute to unrealistic ideals also lack technical knowledge to provide adequate commentary on game
as l wrote in newspaper today following blackcats worst ever premier league performance
its supposed to be entertainment
fun
not drama
crisis
emotional ruin
disaster
its football
good for econmic welfare of the area
it is nothing more then a game where 22 men run after a ball on green grass for a hour and half
nothing more then that
yet saturday l witnessed men in gangs trying to attack the manger of SFC and threatening any who did not agree with them
it all got out of propotion

Gathering the stats on the poor
‘Stop feeding homeless hot food, it’s against council hygiene rules’ – charity prosecution warning
Read more: http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk
We know about rules and need to be sensible
Read more: http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk
One does worry about the way service providers get stopped feeding vulnerable people
HCC got bad reputation for this
Along with way councils make it difficult to distribute food from food banks
And the way have to register to receive charity handouts
We serves community meal once a week half costs we raise go one Training plus
Health and safety
Hull City Council's environmental health officials have contacted Hull Homeless Outreach to say they are breaching food hygiene regulations by serving the food at St Mary's Church in Lowgate.
Sometimes authority appears to put obstacle in the way
Perhaps they don't want to know about the poor
The vulnerable
Those neglected
Forgotten
Strict rules one way of removing the issue and prevented stats about truth being gathered
