Live your faith in your way....

So if person simple faith is enough for them.

They are happy in life they live

Understand enough about Scripture and the Bible...not to seek deeper

Basically comfortable with faith journey...

Why must others not accept this outworkings.

Some do not....

Want others to be in their tride...do faith the way they do. .. .

Why can we not see Lord working with that person or that group...just as he works with others include those no faith evident. 

Yes for myself it's part of my nature to go deeper

But for others performance of Faith is not the be all.

I consider myself

Religious. .

But also spiritual

Others feel they are

Spiritual

But not religious......

Everyone is spiritual...but not everyone knows this basic fact.

A simple Faith....Nomads listen up!

 

The Bible talks about child like

Faith..

So simply witness process of  'welcoming stewards' on Sunday morning.

Welcomes others espically new attending.

As couple these simple faith people often invite others for Chicken dinner on a Sunday.

It's so welcome...becomes three hour feast.

They have done this whole adult lifes.. Christian beliefs mean they are open to the stranger.

Attend lots of Church stuff....always have done.

Don't engage in social media nor debate deeply.

We search our life's for what they hold precious.

yet in 'Nomad faith circle'...in pioneering Church movement,they have not grown,they not tackling issues.

This hurts me the most.

From NOMADIC community get this interpretation that such Church folk are block to Faith growth.

A Simple Faith is larger more relevent then emerging Church can grasp.

Perhaps this is one reason why such pioneers and fellowships often implode in bitterness.

Give me a Chicken dinner with such good people most days.

SOMETHINGS STILL TRYING TO GET ANSWERS TOO

I spend each day here waiting for a miracle
But it's just you and me going through the mill
Climbing up a hill

Sometimes I ask my heart did we really give our love a chance . . . 
I know without a doubt
That we turned it inside out
How long must we keep riding on this carousel
Going round and round and never getting anywhere
On a wing and prayer...

– tell us something of the faith you inherited-
-Spirituality and faith were just not part of my general thoughts or experience-
- Deconstruction story…-
-church on Sunday involved singing, clapping, dancing, watching the power men-

                               

FAITH DEVELOPMENT 

NOT KEEN ON THE QUESTION.. AROUND INHERITED FAITH!

IT OFTEN RESULTS FROM MY LISTENING TO OTHERS 

,IN AN HARSH CRITIC OF THE PREVIOUS JOURNEY....

LACKS GRACE LITTLE UNDERSTANDING OF THE  PROCESS.

SOMETIMES PEOPLE SHARING IN NEW EMERGENCE,HAVE HAD POOR EXPERIENCE OF CHURCH.

RESULTS IN GETTING EVEN WITH WHAT THEY OFTEN RELATE BACK AS AUTHORITY...

The comments I hear appear harsh and mean so l struggle with being part of emergent Church or pioneering movement....

1. Simplicity — You’re either for us or against us.  It’s all or nothing.
2. Complexity — There’s more than one way to do things.
3. Perplexity — Everyone has an opinion.  Who knows who is right?
4. Harmony/Humility — Seek first God’s Kingdom… love God, love neighbors… in essentials unity… focus on a few grand essentials.

Journey and process are part of our human development,l had poor experience of manliness in School poor educational attainment was result.
however in Church and Boxing gyms  true male humanity demonstrated including listening,teaching me skills,increasing my own confidence ,clear interest was taken in myself.
Later l returned to education and progressed to degree Level.
don`t judge every school by poor standerd of care ,education,but allow grace.
accept this was difficult awkward and a challenge.
see little grace in` Nomad`,` emerging` brotherhood.
Challenge is offer to others in faith journey, compassion,sharing of concepts.
Ask ..where was Holy Spirit in some peoples experience...was is it absence  apparently in others previous?

When even experts not helping.....feel like screaming

 

In the night disturbed

Pain was uncomfortable.

Reached for specialist medication

With difficulty.

Took the pills, plus spray

Arteries opened.

Headache arrived

Slept.

Spoke to my Doctor about increasing pain....long days unable to attend anything.

Feeling discouraged not connected.

He typed..,(it was over the phone consultation)...

He concluded...."l don't know what to say"....

Feel like, this the long goodbye.

Two people with different experience.

 Different knowledge Base. Unable to sail the ship to Port. This feels like a long goodbye....

Maybe when get past this healthy place...when more normal...just put it down to life's rich tapestry....until then...take the pills...

This is the long goodbye...somebody tell me why...been here before.

.Must control the abuse by social media giants or norm will be emotional literacy plus harsh society's

 What makes me the person l am

Is the experience along this journey!

Believe me not everything been 'learnt'

Nor has it been easy.

Guess too many times 

Some people's experiences in life...

Is being built upon the experience of trying 

to be in image culture presenting...

Trying hard not make this generational observation.....although lot of Society's chaos coming from cultural norms along with missing ingredients of Community... dialogue...poor leadership.

Sharing narrative of our life's listening to conversation

Should return as we talk about opening up...

Risky we need to be honest

Sharing hopes and discouragements so we enhance each others development.

There is a fear that emotional literacy opening up could be exploited.

Hence we don't trust enough.

.Must find way to control the abuse by social media giants or worse emotional literacy and less trusted society

Understand better the experiance of female gender...they are exploited the most also most fearful,due to unusual activity on this medium.

Need for spiritual leadership in this area.

PER ARDUA Ad ASTRA

 It's been tuff .. Doctors unhelpful around health issues

Losing several days week with lethargy and pain....

My life involves some health issues with Cardiac...

Good. Understand that many worse off then myself..

So rested up away from home.......

Love ...life...friendships even Vocation,appear on hold when poor health becomes big concern.

I KNOW SOME PEOPLE REALLY STRUGGLING........IT GETS BETTER

 Life is definitely not fair,

 but it’s well worth

doing the hard work of living.

I  USE THE BOOK ...THINGS GET BETTER

BY KATIE PIPER.....ITS FULL OF HELP 

Do not want to dwell on the issue that brought here to prominence...but she must be one of Earths greatest living young women..its that simple.

if l dare to feel as bit low reach for this book..simple then l do not feel so low.

Britain's most inspiring young woman helps give others the courage to cope with life's challenges, through personal anecdotes and expert advice..

whatever you are going through,confident  you`ll  find help in this place....

“Things will never get better if you believe they won't”

Fishing in low culture can also be very spiritual.....

 Wrestling with questions about your faith is not doudts.

Not agreeing with all that others agree is not disconnecting from your Faith.

Unable to fathom Struggling often....not a Faith crisis.

Walking alone in prayer...deep thought returning to unanswered questions is part of the tapestry of faith.

Staying among your heritage community does not mean you have not taken a risk for God

The Father's nature and purpose for you will not be the same as another on same journey.

God speaks to each perhaps differently.

Be cautious about who guides you on this journey....that includes my ramblings...

Learnt a great deal from fishing in low culture

Being among meek in spirit

Spending time with people who suggest they hold no faith...

Like them

Like you

Like myself

                 The journeys taking place differently sometimes....

I cry out to comfort, competence, and culture all the time. The sacrifices offered include time, money, brain space to them.

 It's OK waste time in odd ways

But don't guilt trip it's allowed

Unless becomes huge amount of time

Fishing in low culture can be Spiritual

Rambling about theology again

 Faith is it simple?

Does it grow and change?

Are not doudts part of the process?

My faith also feeling.....feeling leave that when everything else stripped away

What l have come to accept about Jesus ...life...words..call to action...Death...ressurection

.Kingdom values.

Well simply where faith journey begins remains and carrots me home...

Faith like spiritual 

Like Church....

Kingdom values

It's messy......

Like a warm fuzzy feeling....but can be a battle ground....arguments wrong views

But it should always be something a person owns develops and grows with.

Faith real precious........Hold onto this like Truth plus Love....required part of LIFE.

Hope can die .....when social abuse mocks those living for better

Twitter

Facebook

Insta.....

Tic...toc....

 

Whatever coming next....all forms of hidden social abuse platforms.

Just seen a post linking Nazi Germany with the NHS

 pointing us to take a vaccine...

Had young client who harmed themselves

 following lot of Facebook abuse

Calling out and platforming people

All part of a self Centered narrative ....result is close down dialogue,

discussion,social cohesion,conversation

That all closed down. . . . . .MAYBE THAT IS THE TRUE AIM

Growth...better understanding...Prevents increasing empathy . . . .stops us seeing another's Soul.

Fearful of sharing own vulnerabilities because it may be mocked by others

So we retreat

Close down

Even hide away

 

Facebook comments ..social media comments
are like the SUN
      DO not stare at them for to long....

          Keep trying to find HOPE in a hopeless world.

I live in times where hope is returning

 However for myself kinda always been optimiseic about next steps

Eternal flame of hope been kept alive .

The conversation plus dialogue with others kept me flame grilled...

Witnessed others deep concern 

Social practices working out through care ..displays of love

Simple practices which go unnoticed......

So it's good group to be part of...belong with.

Recognise as you read this you...yourself display such ethics.

Is it in built?

Do we discover such outworkings?

Are they rooted in Biblical understanding?

Political thoughts...other Religious knowledge?

Can it be just way we are programmed as humans...whatever it is ...correct.

Sometimes we just got to kick the Darkness till it bleeds the light....

Wait for love to conquers the great Divide......

Till then walk in Nature...converse with others.....listen actively

Walking with the radio still playing tunes in my space....

 Been driving far too much far too many miles....... need for rest period simple reflection

A community that not worth belonging to....balance out from previous

We may still be deep in the midst of a pandemic, entertainment world been good cognative enabler , However with restrictions remaining on what we can and cannot do, This world changing beyond recognition in many ways, Glad to offer comforting note.

A strange thing remain exactly the same re-pre-coronavirus.

Hull city fans’ desperation see decent signing, along with radio coverage of home games!

 plus newspaper journalists need to report great deal speculation, about nothingness thus filling vacuous hole left by no action during summer period.

Dissatisfaction, some heartache, along with concern is the filling emotionally prepared for Tigers supporters.

Like this community but  not comfortable not part of community ,do not give very much to the coffers.

This is my only level of support.Vague interest.

One time personally more committed active member of this community ........not presently

A community belonging to something special...nice place to be

You and me ,this is what we are, if not it's what we should try and become

WE ARE THE BRIDGE that others NEED BACK TO THE CHURCH.⠀

⠀

We've seen what's not right , further l am committed, like you, we know what's compelling about God's vision for his people.

His wonderful purpose , love and nature of belonging.

 We must strive to be those people, doing all we can to come together to enact that vision.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We're all out here, we want better. We can make it so. In fact, we're called to.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's always been on us, and it's just as important as ever.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Emerging to reclaim plus remake what church is about, kingdom people going for those values in ways that make local community want to belong among us.

Music is great love of mine........deep...

Someone wrote a song and l, . . .like You connect with those lyrics.

They paint a narrative we get drawn in...

Their skills are marvelled at by you, me, and plenty more.

Singer pours out the heart and l understand.

The Tone,the beat, the sonic,make me feel, like dancin...

worse then that's really do dance...no one should see that.

Feel sad but piece of music lifts your spirit.

It talks about social issue....experiance is shared...worshipful...

Argument is sounded out..you want to sing along to the narrative .

Music does this and so so much more.

Enjoy.

Cognitive behaviour and supporting yourself

Been walking..some of this my own 'easy get out' to address own concerns..

When really young walked three days once a year on my own.

It felt spiritual

 alone but not lonly.....coping with solitude  

Soon ready to enjoy fellowships with others.

See it in my son...see it with others.

Recognise important...but too much isolation can provent growth.

Can if not careful lead

To bitterness.

Explore the things you love...for me it's Vinyl 

Listening to Chi lites...or some country artist

That's been today.

Reading old book.

Grabbing a Bible...reading commentary..making own notes ...sharing same with another.

These all enable our cognitive therapy ...one we don't needs counselling project to deliver.

P.S. Pay the music fee don't download for free.

How do you find cognitive therapy

What skills help you cope?
Here are few l use.......
Listening to others
Demonstrating emphasis around others issues
Walking in nature with family and friends
Enjoying silence
Recognise that not every day's a great moment
Preparing for better periods as Experiance shows me ...it gets better!
The tough times can feel long
Watching TV not to much long indulgence 
Cooking fresh as l can
OK have simple things
Not envious of others

Love ...YOU..been alongside yourself through quite a lot

Work through and ask for support
Can you read up on issues that concern you
Dance....paddle...build sandcastles.....
Pray seek God...whatever you conceive God to be,get to know Gods purpose for you.
Drink Jack Daniels . . . .most of what l have put here you can adjust...but glass of JD, best l can offer

Cognitive ... Therapy from Nature

I got some cognitive skills that sometimes are hiddenWe are looking for ways to cope not sure finding themAround us in communities wherein l excist

Now look at this tree on the leftCan you see how it's been grafted onto the otherSo that it can liveSo it can copeSo it can be supportedWithout help from other 🌲 treeIt would die and rot in the ground

Tell me that's not just simple brilliance but also required help from human  although sometimes it happens organically.Where you getting coping skills from,who will  you allow to support you?

I feel like a pinball and l no longer know it all.........TV bores me but not Music.Been reading bit more but damm it can never read a book straight through.Odd found old box sets of stuff seen so many times enlightens .Wonder if this is age thing going on....

Like keep asking daft questions

Did Elvis really die on the toilet having a burger?

Why did Sopranoes star Gandalfinie die so young did character he portrayed affect his health.

Will they remake the wire!

None of this is important.

Have l got time to listen to all the music l own at present?

Can l be granted enough time to read books l posses?

What will my legacy be? . . . .How will family flourish?

Load more cheerful stuff going in in that place between my ears....ha ha ha..

We are complex make up human beings........

Bit about FAITH

Faith is a mountain...it's a River ..it's somewhere you go to most morning

It's a raging River...its a stream..it's safe to paddle..can be difficult to swim in.....

Can be lost...cannot be taken away

Don't need to be religious to be full of Faith

Your soul and Spirituality they are different things.

 

Faith should be shared

Discussed

Hold onto yours and help it grow

It may at times feel absent

Really practice Faith in simple terms most days

Can have faith in people....God...road user.. electricity...like that

Faith part of life....

It's Sunday hope enjoyed non religious sermon....it came free!

There has to be connection and relationships at front of individual growth There has to be connection and relationships developing if Church/Community's want to grow. Society must embrace close connections not leaving a digital poverty excluding the poorest.

We drove out to lover's point
Shared our last kiss eye to eye
Spoke of tender times long past
Said they weren't meant to last
Too many different dreams to satisfy

She wants
New shoulders to cry on
New backseats to lie on
And she always gets her way
She wants to see other guys
Get lost in other eyes
Baby's in the black books
Yes she's in the black books today

The hardest truths don't have a why
Often true love will just die
And leave a grief to haunt
The lonely nights and days

She wants
New shoulders to cry on
New backseats to lie on
And she always gets her way
She wants to hurt other guys
Put tears in other eyes 
Baby's in the black books
Yes she's in the black books today

She wants to hurt other guys
Put tears in other eyes
Baby's in the black books
Yes she's in the black books today

Songwriters: Nils Lofgren

Black Books lyrics 

LUV THE WORDS IN THIS SONG . . . . .  DRAMA... OPERA ....THE LIFE...RELATIONSHIPS

Spirituality is hidden in our present social understanding

 I have been asked 'is spirituality out of fashion?'

Thousands of ways where the message whatever that may be,is echoing....

TV music poetry... religious beliefs... educational and social behaviour, lyrics in songs

Films , solitary walk... relationships..economics...ethics...

It may be Hidden like dance music

May not be felt to be spiritual

Fact of everyday life

Not always a big deeply meaningful thing.....often awareness can be just to one individual

Also we talk around community spirit like fishing or mining communities.

Society fearful as it may be regarded as a specific religion

But it's not limited

It's around us.hidden to many but present to some.

My need to understand more of God is still great

Blessed are the unemployed for we need a role ,even though there is no 'signing on' in heaven.

Blessed should be the single parents, they don't get a break but just want best for the child.

Let's bless the corner shop guy for when we need milk and bread ...

Bless the till workers ,shop floor cleaners ,trolley pushers they just get on with it.

Bless those who sit watching TV wanting to be in real conversation.

In time God will hear those prayers.

May the day begin when humble are recognised and blessed for just being....just being...

Bless the peace makers in the middle East......where like a virus hatred 'returns and returns'

Bless them Lord.

Bless the old folk ..feeling like they are not required,...fill their minds with acceptance of the journey 

still not finished,happy times ,sunny days, resilence... 

Bless the energy of the young may they find counsel with aged folk and listen wisely.

May we have enough stupidity to believe we can change ourselves and community we live in...

Amen 

---(more soon)---

At present struggling finding community!

 It's says and accept must should go to Church

But like so much in communities ...not evident

Further oddity that l am....not fitting in with you!

Self excluded

Marginalized myself

Left me outside alone

Looking in from the outside

Not walked away... neither am l missing company.nor angry with others

Journey placed me here ...on the edge.

Unhappy some teachers of the word.....maybe l was born this way..good at something else.

Being an outsider.

Clifftop walker...views  panarama is wider...but sheer fall.

To be dissatisfied with one self....that is personal development further growth ahead

Loved my day up coast at Bridlington... drinking cuppa, eating chips on harbour wall

I was only one in group,who was not heading home..all others staying away

Looking at others talking as departed was good feeling.

Earlier shared some music as we pilgrimed down the country roads

Coming back alone was fine.

Listened deeply music in car oddly was..Madonna.

(and some Prince extended tracks)....

Fields full of gold coulered harvest 

Joy is what we discovered as the group shared

Good openness....almost silently we collected shells from beach 

place called Danes Dyke.

<Used as Dover in remake of DADS ARMY>

Silence

Talking

Sharing

Reflection

Goodbyes. . . .

What makes you grow?.....how do you measure enjoyment?......Are you happy?

Starting to prepare for some  Church growth debate l am leading.

There has to be connection and relationships at front of individual growth

There has to be connection and relationships developing if Church/Community's want to grow.

Society must embrace close connections not leaving a digital poverty excluding the poorest.

If we don't grow together....then like the Middle East ...we have trouble a plenty.

Relationships are key to growth as person,in groups and among developing society. 

So we are coming out of this awful horror movie we starred in....

Fees in the post....

Situations been challange.

Time to reboot

Coffee up eat a maccy Dee, Rucksack packed,ready for bigger brighter happy times.....

........like the newish hymn should go like........

Everybody wants to go to heaven 

But some Christains don't wanna die ....

Found some Church folk retreated at a time when we are in massive decline.

Most evenglical hide away deep. . . 

Unsure if some congregations gonna return at all...confident few will not  emerge.

Bring on the dancin shoes...play the music loud and get ready to dance.

Communicate
Talk
Chat
Speak 

Looking forward to the new ......whatever....

Spring like day.....has winter come for myself

 

Feel like watched to much TV

Not spoken to others enough

Ate to much

Gone into self only'

Proscrinated just  little to often

Tried to read more

Prayed deeply

Worked to understanding issues in middle East more.... working through the confusion

Certain killing and bomding not the intended way for peace for all people

Certain also that reading Bible passage from thousand years ago

Without true understanding not solution.

I got told ...God promised that land to the Jewish......oh So it's OK to kill then.....NO.

Easy to say that here...in sunshine in spring in East riding of Yorkshire.

Are they not blood brothers?

Can land not be occupied by many...can they not harvest together....

Seek justice for other and you seek justice for yourself.

Neighbourhood bully get what he wants.

Infidel's like me

We want peace

Perhaps don't get all the minicia or historical

Evidence.

But know war is not the answer

You se been brought up to believe 

That justice will flow like a River

Treat humbly and love our neighbors that best way to be...better way to be...

Kingdom way to be....hell know how niavie that sounds.

But know no better inspiring way to live......

It's my winter...snow is all-around...hearts little weak...but my journey not complete.

In my soul...departed here....not content how l am leaving this place....but winter here for me

Where do you get your theology from......(Sense of God)?

“Rabbit’s clever,” said Pooh thoughtfully.

“Yes,” said Piglet, “Rabbit’s clever.”

“And he has Brain.”

“Yes,” said Piglet, “Rabbit has Brain.”

There was a long silence.

“I suppose,” said Pooh, “that that’s why he never understands anything.” ~A.A.Milne 

The books that get me thinking........House at pooh corner.....the boy ,horse and the fox.....

Victor Cannings triology 'Runaways'.....

TV programmes....The Wire...Hill street blues......

Music ....Bod Dylan....Dire straits.....Dance music...Tamla...Northern soul...Garth Brooke's ...

Etc...

The Bible....

Being with others

Cooking sharing meals

Walks in nature

Sandy beach

Cliff top view..........its omnipresent!

 

A grey sky threateningly dark clouds and empty beach

 Alone watching clouds above

Seagulls cry and swarm

Winds chilly shops closed  normal nower days

Promenades empty

No car's parked

All appears closed

Like feelings l have inside at this moment.

Moods kinda blue...hope sun return

Echos evident that we are returning to more open period

Hearts must open to each other

Individuals must show change

Community should develop better

Society has to reflect less oppression towards excluded

At front of this must be Faith community

Those projecting Kingdom values.

Being kinder...listening deeper... reflection...silent..

Active in embracing poor in spirit poor in economics

Poor in health...

Echo to return to chance Pandamic afforded us...

Across in Palestine

Jews and Arabs

Blood brothers

Kill each other

Shalom doesn't excist

Hatred returning

Let's pray for peace 🙏.

 Let's pray for deep Shalom to return

Outsiders test

l have heart condition it's tough 

Hence don't have to wear mask when out in with you good folks

However get others telling me that should not be among public.

Outsider

Place used to being

Occupational behaviour for likes of myself

Outsider

Music taste...not linked to TV 

Books l read

People share life amongst

Entertainment l enjoy

Belief system

Spiritual direction

Outsider

Culturally

Ethnic grouping

Class.... poverty struggle... educational expectation...

Hardworking

Northern

Male

Outsider

Don't need a mask nor do l need others reminding me

Many had benefit cut this month and had increase in rent and council tax along with general increase Back to normal... poor forgotten about even during virus

There talk and suggest action ,which may mean Cross-party MPs aim to force government to rectify DWP failure to comply with court rulings on bedroom tax ....and bereavement benefits rights breaches...along with non payments and under payments.

But warn you here....don't hold breathe waiting for results.

Poor get poorer even during virus.

Being kinda in this new age ..following C19 means recognise others efforts , politics and government,health services,even research... if you don't like them I value efforts made on my behalf ....grateful

 Thanks for your expertise and knowledge.

 God bless you and your family and friends.

Faith that getting menaced

It appears although Christian Faith is not oppressed, nor are faith holders in immediate danger in UK at least.
We are still in more challenging times.
Here an example where a school preacher was reported for sermon in school assemblies that challenged the WOKE agenda..

Randall says his sermon was provoked by pupils’ concerns over plans to ‘embed gender, gender identity and sexual orientation into the fabric’ of the nominally Christian school. He says that he used the sermon to tell pupils they should not be expected to agree with all the ideas the school was promoting – and that opposing to same-sex marriage and believing in biological sex were both perfectly legitimate viewpoints.

The TV has presenters who one day are one gender, the next they present as another gender.

One person on small programme called COACH TRIP...nice good idea for programme..

Stated....l get up in morning, am a fella sex with woman ,next day l am another person a woman who has sex with men...next day...

Get where that one is going...it all self serving but worse it's promoted.

That my real rud with it all... that promotion against nuclear or more normal acceptance.

BBC recognise 100 genders

I recognise 2.

If man luv a man ....fine....if l luv woman fine ....neither of us have right to impose that value.

But debate and discuss.like most things then you maybe get where l am plus values l hold.

There is no debate or acceptance that 100 genders is sinful.

Not a word use that ole world view.... But it leads to more incorrect behaviour.

More hurt.

More rejection

More attacks upon the 2 gender believers ......

Have we become uncomfortable with each other?

 

Whether it's religion... political.. society in general we struggle communicate among 
Ourselves.
Not finding common language..despite hearing this comment_'l get it_' we don't.
Could it be fear of opening up to each other?
Fear of new wokenisum!
Just not comfortable as people.
Game 'evil  one' happy to see being played out in small groups, communities, in friendships
Just not hearing each other.....
Leading to discourse ,overall frustrated disconnected. . .
 Lack of harmony....losing art of actively listening.
Got to work harder find out from each other . what's going on'......
John Allen wrote great book called...'Why am l Afraid to tell you who l am '.
He talks about five levels of communication...opening up more and more.
Perhaps we become too clever or we simply fine not talking.
Return to this...   WHAT'S GOING ON.. ..

Has COVID been blessing for those taking others cash

It feels like that 30% on bag of chips

Cup of tea 400% increase

Something quite wrong when people sit outside pud in snow and pouring rain under umbrella drinking expensive beer.

No not funny

Not quaint

Not resilance

Bloody stupid

Many walked away from North yorkshire (Filey Scarborough) coastal resort cafes when seen the prices 

Cup of tea £2-85 to stand outside with Watered down tea, in cold,drinking out of a small cardboard container.

.....forget about it......

£12 for small cheese pizza

......shhhhhhhhhhhhhtttttteeee.....Hell No

Stay with me on this journey...get cup of tea prices right one Day

Selected my music having packed car

Passenger had last fags.

Prayers said....we begin...sights to see,quieter on way home...Music just OK. Safe travel home...travel back always feels quicker 

It's late afternoon unpacked....big question been working on retreat as  rest up.

Yeah at stage of life....three hours in the afternoon.

Stay with me.lets keep moving this emotional intelligence, and wisdom we shared.

Politics in the United Kingdom is non event

We need strong opposition to check Government, government should be fearful firstly of the people. Then, fearful of those with different Stance...views...debate should strengthen party of power. 

But we do not have that in our Society. We have liers..thieves..small mindedness..lack of knowledge, further concern for voter's.

Hopes not evident

Poverty so high in coastal areas

But there this odd thing

People pay high prices for such simple commodity as cup of tea

From £1_20 up to £2_85......

Did COVID-19 cause tea leaves, coffee beans to rise so high?

Or am l that much out of touch?

When did we become so Apathetic, when did we lose without even a whimper?

Guess it's true we get the politicians we deserve...we get cup of tea prices we deserve.

Big questions society faces should they also be the big questions Christians address

Some say ...'followers of Jesus'... Embarrassed,so ignore word Christian.

Me not that deep...happy with either

Faith community

You decide

Now those issues

Healing 

Forgiveness

Racial equality

Poverty

Fairness

Also who is my neighbour?

Following C19 pandamic we must seek to ensure healing offered to all people.

Kinda lucky had my jab...but NHS in UK allowed some not received treatment they should have.

Cardiac issues...neurology.....cancer treatments...all suffered some have died.

That healing ...but society very broken ...low wages..underemployment ...low self esteem..

Poverty issue.. poor housing along with lack of social motility ....big big big issues.

Racial inequality .how working class treated . 

Ethnic groups face same battles same challanges...but lack of appreciation.. the cultures richness each should bring...l would highlight resilience among poor as undervalued strength...poverty leads to huge issues like drug misuse,alcoholic abuse...education...

Overall fairness is not evidence ...many left behind..lack of community cohesion in working together,to build better, there's great deal more then just this way of being.

Neighbourless must grow concern for each other...linked to so much of the above..dots easy to join ..

Kingdom values of saviour who came among us to encourage more redellious nature.

Follow me , Love ones another ,

Take on board seriousness of being a God follower..believe in this way.

Issues our society faces are also issues our society been embroiled in for hundreds of years.

What do l know.....?

Odd we've had four season in this day ........life on northern coast

Pictures to follow

Warm sunshine

Windy wet chilly North Sea blast

Wrapped up had cuppa at Filey.

Snow....several rims not laid deeply 

Wet rain on pond and lakes as we observed Yellow crest ...she'll ducks ...

Presently sunny with predicted frost this evening.

C19 recovery appears to be allowing greed

insulting way to treat us survivors...like well..increase simple cup of tea 

£2-49 is enough to pay,in anyone money.

Hailstones in May snow in summer ...frost on windscreen

I feel frustrated,really ready to give up.

Sound weak

Your right .....but still enjoy the day

Known in another country l worked in there's was snow in June 

Low in valleys among mountains

I have family and friends who can't get to work without longer journeys ..simply due to Hull city cycle lanes...empty cycle lanes...called system error

Redemption complete as Hull City win League One title with convincing Wigan victory

 

Redemption complete as Hull City win League One title with convincing Wigan win at 3_1...

Redemption what spiritual terms for victory in sports event....... defeat followed

Defeat last season,felt pretty low,the more so if invested more than you should of emotions, financial income,time and energy.

Now champions has nice sound.

Are our teams fortune restored as we returned to previous places.

Redemption huge word.Got to query suitability in this context.

But that can wait until another time.

Let's celebrate victory....

All together ..."come on you ULL..."
