My perception of life is not understood in this day and age.

There is Father and Mother, Brother and Sister, and “Twin Sister.” Then life and times, of course, repeat themselves down the long stretch of this century and all the rest.

How do we perceive time? We can only imagine 2000 years ago, but we cannot be there. Just a few get to touch it by being archaeologists or travelling to the ancient cities. “Or, of course, living there.”

Oh, to walk where Jesus Christ walked.

Many of you have walked on the same streets and paths our dear Lord walked on. What is this leading? Our purpose in life is Everlasting Life! We cannot see that, but we can know in our hearts it is there.

I want to use 100 percent of my brain! But how do you achieve that? The Lord, our God, used His. “If you only have the faith of a mustard seed,” you can show all the riches of the world around. Mind you, not material things.

What all of us, every one of us, need to do is put “Our Faith Together”

and bring love, peace, cures for every illness, food, and water to everyone the world over. Can We All Be Brothers and Sisters? Yes, because We Are!

The graces of time are not forgotten.

We are all a part of our ancestors. The faith goes on. We live our lives with barriers of which we know not. We see, we touch, we hear, we feel, we taste, we survive. We can do more than survive.

I remember the voice that used to tell me, “This is the right way,”

and I would go left. How I wish I would have listened. I would not have suffered in the ways I did. I also recall struggling to get my spirit to come back. Only to let go and be idle, lazy, and feeling nothing.

It’s such an awful waste of time to destroy oneself with negativity.

It alters one’s functioning ability. It is a disability in every sense of the word. Every negative thought is a disability because it is so hard to let yourself learn to use your thinking constructively. September 1989.

The Scriptures

Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure. — Isaiah 46:9-10

The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. — Ecclesiastes 1:9-10

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. — Hebrews 13:8

And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. — Matthew 17:20

And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you. — Luke 17:6

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. — Galatians 3:28

And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. — Isaiah 30:21

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. — 2 Timothy 1:7

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalt itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. — 2 Corinthians 10:5

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. — Philippians 4:8

He that rule his spirit is better than he that taketh a city. — Proverbs 16:32

The Affirmations

Reflections

This final movement of the writing layout exposes the true warfare of the human journey, revealing that our greatest battle takes place entirely within our own minds. Looking back at the moments where we ignored the inner guiding voice and went left instead of right shows the heavy toll of human suffering.

Yet, the true tragedy lies in the idle, lazy spaces where the spirit goes numb. Choosing negativity is a true disability—a heavy, self-made barrier that physically alters our ability to function and separates us from our divine purpose.

To step out of survival mode and into the fullness of everlasting life, we must deliberately train our minds to think constructively. We are all deeply connected to our ancestors, carrying a legacy of faith that must go on. By putting our faith together, we break through the unseen barriers of the flesh and realize our true identity as brothers and sisters under God.

True spiritual intelligence means taking our thoughts captive, casting away self-destruction, and unlocking the mind to bring real love, healing, and living water to a hurting world.
