maybe, cause she's back...ohh, sweet love, sweet love (think that was Commodores who did that song))

twasn't her though...not conciously at least. It makes me wonder if nesty might , in fact, be on to something. My sense, my gut feeling, is that I received something from a source that's "bigger than the both of us"...not out of merit, I don't think, but more becuase the Universe required I be restored so that I might of use to it...or something like that, I really know nothing about these things. Perhaps it was Grace? Perhaps it was the Universe? Both? Either way I'll take it and be happy.

It's very real stuff Raven.... and you do not have to go far to find a soul who wishes you well....

I wish you the best too, I really do...I'm also, well SCARED. Theres some tough sledding that lay ahead for me...lots of scary people and scary places to go, as if living in Baltimore isn't scary enough.

I think its possible that folks can have a mutual respect for each other and also realize that at this point in the trail....well (not knowing all the proper terminology) I would say our energies are criss crossing, probably why you cant get a grip on my frequency.

[Brother Michael Sky]

lol... it's not the frequency - it's the dips and dives..... stand tall in the saddle and grab ahold of the pommel, my friend, it'll smooth the ride....

I see nothing wrong with your frequency - not the kinda thing that's right and wrong... just aim for a steady, relentless pace - not a sprint to the finish....

yes, yes

I make no claims to have any sort of "revelation", in fact I'm suspicious of all that even more now... you know, having some sort of revelation that leads to writing another religious text. I don't think we need all that. What I experienced was a sort of "vibration" , a low, warming, healing vibration... no words nescessary . I can't just repeat it at will, but I can always reflect back and it inspires me.

If someone had never seen the Ocean before, once they see it, they can go back home, they may never see the ocean again, but they will always have that memory when they need to warm their heart. Hope that makes sense.

That is how epiphanies change our lives. Its a little piece of the ocean that has changed your awareness of the world forever and you will carry that awareness with you always wherever you may go. The more epiphanies one experiences the more their lives change and their awareness expands.

Ravenstrikes,

First of all I'm really glad you're here on the forum and have made a regular event out of it in the last couple of months it seems. The post Br. Devon made about the kid he made a difference to

Posted 11 July 2011 - 03:36 PM Remember, you have a home here, and people who do care about you.

And if you think your ministry doesn't affect anyone, let me tell you about the time that sealed my fate as a member of clergy.....

I had my little place on the internet, and thought no one gave a good hoot about my site. Then I got the email. A young man sent me a note that his parents did not believe in an Almighty and forbade him to go to church. He went to my site because I supplied him the same service he would have gotten had he "escaped" and gone to church. This poor kid (at the time) woke himself up at 2 am once a week just to read the service I posted. Most kids his age were surfing porn instead.

That was over 8 years ago. Not too long ago, I heard from this young man, now a bit older, who is now on his own and is interested in becoming clergy himself.

That's the thing about being clergy: you rarely know whose life you may affect for the better. Trust me in this, though - you have made someone's life better, and I promise you'll never know who, or when, until you face your day of judgement (if your belief includes such a thing - I have to quote from my beliefs, it's all I know).

All the best, Br. Devon

...is the type of "testimonial" many of us can lay claim to. I've even more appreciated the ones I've heard about something I've done through the grapevine, as there seems to be a greater sense of validity to those than someone who may have the need to be kissing the derriere...and the successes we may never hear about are the ones that really keep me going....on Faith.

someone is sending me healing energy...and it sure as heck ain't my girl... I can feel the heal....not sure, but I suspect its not too late for the Sky....I'll get it together, someway, somehow.

Sounds to me like the forum is alive and well, whether some here believe in "sending energies" or not! The very concept prayer got its validation from works every day in many ways...think it, say it, believe it, experience it ....not a very complicated thing, but I'm glad you are receiving benefit from it none the less.

yes, yes

I don't think we need all that. What I experienced was a sort of "vibration" , a low, warming, healing vibration... no words necessary . I can't just repeat it at will, but I can always reflect back and it inspires me.

It makes beautiful, perfect sense to me...and to wit I must relate a story of "faith" as well...please remember I am not a traditionalist rather a Runic Vitki with my own spin on things...

When my son Aaron was living with me up in the wilds of Humboldt County, northern California, we decided to go take a long weekend camping/fishing trip to which he asked if his friend could go along. As I spoke to the boys parent, also a single/divorced father, chit-chat finally came to inviting him to come along as well. Wonderful the four boys could go to the woods for a grand time.

To my shock, when we stopped to get the other boy Dana and his dad Richard, one thing stood out above all else, Richard greeted us at the door with his long white cane and dark glasses on, he was blind. Yes, you can imagine the thoughts racing through my head as one, nobody had bothered to tell me he was blind, and two, how was he going to make it in the unfamiliar surroundings of the Redwood Forest?

I won't bother you with our whole trip and all the background, but Richard had been blind since only 3 years old and never had "good eyes". As we set up camp, I was amazed to see how he and his son worked as a team, son "leading him" and he made note of how many steps from my Blazer 4X4 to the tent, fire pit, folding table, etc and so on, letting him "map" the camp site and path to our sit-down lou, behind a large tree. The redwood groves are typically 150-200' tall with trunks 8-12' in diameter...BIG trees!

This man fished and did everything we did except the hiking the boys ran off to do and by all accounts, other than a few tell-tale signs, you'd never know this fellow was blind by his actions. The last night we sat around the camp fire and expressed our thankfulness for the time together and that when he described how he "saw" and made memories. "It's like a low frequency vibration I get, it sort of gives me a dot-matrix like view of things and then it just sort of fills in the blanks from there as I get more familiar to a place." He described, in probably as much detail as any of us could have everything around us, down to moss on fallen trees, river "slime" on the rocks and shadow and sun time of virtually every spot around our camp site.

This was why he was more comfortable going out and experiencing things instead of reading braille books or listening to TV as he could then fully get the whole picture about the place, through his other senses....and what a memory he got from things, probably more enhanced and detailed than us fully capable folks would get.

So from all that I've learned to always let our experiences be what they are, good or bad, ups or downs and let the vibration and frequency of things paint my picture, instead of what I merely see with my eyes.

Being with or without a girlfriend right now could be good or bad, depending on how you "feel it", but none the less, it is what it is and there's a lesson to be had from the occasion.

You just don't know how things you've done may have affected someone else and made a difference in their lives, but imagine you've caused change in any event which is usually positive when done with the right heart.

And finally, when you allow your other senses to act upon your Self and your experiences, what tremendous and stupendous results Become as a result...and after all, Becoming is what our Spirit, Self and Soul is all about.

Now that you've Become a different person than you were, it's up to you to make it a positive or negative change.....and I hope all that made sense to you as I meant it in nothing but the most positive manner. We may not always see the good or grand end of things, but changes wouldn't be made to our eternal thinking within our temporary physical form if it wasn't necessary.

Many Blessings to you and yours,

.

Ravenstrikes,

Thank you my friend and thanks also for signing the guestbook over at Spoorsack, my dad says he will be emailing soon.

Why aren't you on my friends list? I have added you, should you choose to accept it.

You've addressed more points than I can comment on, so I touch on the important ones for now...

Br. Devon gets my nomination for Sainthood in the ULC. I don't know how many votes it takes, but we all know he has earned it, the old fashioned way, he's worked really hard, so lets do it and make him an official Saint. In the old days, of course, you had to die and wait a couple hundred years but the ULC has streamlined this process greatly...should take no more than two weeks tops.

the hairs on my arm went up as I read this...I thought...yes, yes, yes, yes...
