poverty in Gaza

UN: Poverty rate surpasses 80% in Gaza Strip under the Israeli blockade.

Deeply disturbing news about how others living , issue for myself part of a community that is odds with many views on the condition. .
Except not an issue,How people are experiencing everyday.


So took some time explore Bible reading in the Psalms
part of the Bible call,Smash hits.About enemies found Quite few
suitable passages .At times can be pretty stark.

Don’t make quick work of them, God,
    lest my people forget.
Bring them down in slow motion,
    take them apart piece by piece.
Let all their mean-mouthed arrogance
    catch up with them,
Catch them out and bring them down
    —every muttered curse
    —every barefaced lie.
Finish them off in fine style!
    Finish them off for good!
Then all the world will see
    that God rules well in Jacob,
    everywhere that God’s in charge.


Unsure what your situation might be,but the Bible has relevant stuff.
Some of these words are rooted in `first temple Judaism`.
More on that another time.

Hull City secure a December double Adkins & Bowen grab awards

Managers have been rewarded for their achievements on a monthly basis since 1969 when the award was set-up to recognize the excellence in performance by managers throughout the league.
Nigel Adkins became the eleventh Hull City boss to have been the recipient of the award after his side remained unbeaten throughout the month of December, accumulating 16 points from a possible 18 in the process.
Bowen, meanwhile, scored six goals in as many games last month with match-winning braces against Queens Park Rangers, Swansea City and Leeds United to take him into double figures for the season, although he was also quick to credit others for his personal accolade.


“I’m delighted to win the award but it was a good month for the whole team and everybody played their part,” explained Bowen.

kinda think `UK`... got the blues

The man's still grinnin', said he lost my file
I gotta stand in line again
.... I wanna kill him but I just say no
I had enough of that line my friend
I head back to the .....it's gettin kinda cold
And I'm feelin' too low down to lie
Marie she didn't wake up this mornin'
She didn't even try
She just rolled over and went to heaven
My little boy safe inside
I laid them in the sun where somebody will find them
........
Marie will know that I'm headed south
So to meet me by and by

Willie Nelson sings this song on an album 
about lost love,(MOJO give away) Also reminds me of `wire`, which is TV programme watch few times.
If you can,catch the song via many mediums.
Listen its an utterly believable reading of the harrowing "Marie".
It a song about poverty and complete hopelessness, but also creates narrative about missing out on life. identify mental health problems,unemployment,lack of opportunities.
I want to be part of something Christian that pointing at these issues and desires change.

Pizza da action

 "There's a lot of scaremongering over No Deal, that if we leave with no deal there are going to be no agreements whatsoever". That's not the case! There are going to be lots of small agreements but they'll have to make compromises rather than bully us into a bad deal!

Calais port boss, chaos at the border in the event of No Deal: "It's wrong! It's not true! There will not be more delay. The trucks will be passing as they do today."

kinda OK but kinda NOT ANYWAY HERE A QUOTE..
I had this person I knew I was made to be, yet it was mixed in with all of these other ... people. As the lights were turned on, I saw I had all of this guilt and shame because I wasn't measuring up to the image of the perfect person I had in my head.” 
― Rob Bell, Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith




Where we live together with others,some may try to tell you is a place, where we are re-made, young and old, together.
but that some Utopia.Reality it a damp dirty,wet place .Not often one of safety

Wit and wisdom are gifts given for the good of the community – not for the ego of the individual
where l live and the community placed among/in. well it remind myself, that we are not the beginning and end of our own knowledge; but that we depend on those who we live among to see differently, more clearly and live more generously. 
well God knows, we need to be able to see and live differently, but missing at present is this .."life in all its glory", you know life that vibrant,inspiring.
Life here, its draining,its hopelessness,its grey stark and not inspiring.
Its a life of stretching meagre resources,working to get by,passing others whose dread and fear is there, visible in body movements. 
when it feels as if our traditional institutions – political, religious, economic, educational – are not really helping us

THAT touches the edges,Then it here in that wide now,time of now,space filled by now.
That faith thing is not answering...

Can this be England?


Can This be England? deals with the quagmire that awaits people caught in the welfare system. Scenes are set in jobcentres and in characters’ homes addressing some of what Neville calls the “everyday absurdity” of what occurs, such as when people with disabilities and fluctuating health conditions are wrongly declared “fit for work” inflicting additional suffering in the system.

Tell me more 
Tell me the same old story
But try find in the reality story about Jesus and his love
Cannot find evidence of a God who hears the Lamentations of his people 



You see l live to recognise the material,along with the reality,all fused together in the spirituality.

Warming seas linked to bluefin tuna surge in UK waters.

Yes that what been reading about, not sure if l bothered only swam in UK sea one time last year was July and pleasant,also price fish high, even tinned Tuna, tinned Sardines, expect you are like myself, notice these prices a bit more then perhaps 'others' who may be on higher income.
In 1930s, the species was a common sight in the seas off Scarborough and was highly prized by big-game fishers. However, from the 1940s, the species began to decline and by the early 1990s had all but disappeared. But over the past five years or so, sightings of the warm blooded fish have increased. 
DIET WAYS l had 22 days without meat last month which when you consider it included Christchaosmass and new year that significant. don't believe lost any weight but feel lighter not got any other measure to add.

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
